We have only to repeat , their own es pre w ons. After relating the citlannstance of isiAnmor's being disabled by his wounds, they tell es General CLAUZEL took the command; and prodi rei o f valour were performed by the French; yet, irerthefra, (on this word rests the truth) the accident which had happened to the Duke of RAGL'SA had fr the first determined General CLAuzEt. to retire u rn the right of the Torm,s. Thus it appears that exist ing circumstances, and the prudence of General CLAUZU occasioned the retreat of the French army. Then w e are informed that they continua their .

However sanguine those interested in the welfare of America may be in their expectations of a suspen sion of hostilities, the instant the repeal of the Orders in Council is made made known at the seat of Go vernment* we understand that since the arrival of Mr. Fo.TEn, Ministers are prepared fni a threat of the, continuance of the war, unless some further conceit- I I sions are made. The controul exercised by all civi• I lized Governments over the subjects born within their Clotriiiiions, has been openly controverted by Mr. I MADISON and his party for several years past, in pamphlets and official documents. The protection afforded to the deserters from our navy by the Ame rican States is an Injury which Great Britain has re ceived at the hands of America, and which has been forgiven with becoming magnanimity : but if Mr. MADISON and his College of French Jurists, at Washington, are disposed to touch this discor dant string once more, we believe we may tell them the 131 itith Government will expend the last shilling in its Treasury rather than depart from the most tr ifling of those advantages which the superio. rity of our navy has gained us over other maritime states, and which have been sanctioned by the law of nations from time immemor'al. MEDITERRANEAN MAILS. Mails from the Mediterranean have arrived at Fal mouth, brought by the Manchester packet ; she sailed from Malta on the 12th July, and from Gibraltar on t he 6th instant. General BALLASTIKOS, who had advanced to Malaga and whose communication with Gibraltar was supposed to have been cut off by the French, had again retreated under the guns of the _ _ _ Fortress in good order. The victory of Marquis Wei.usoroN at Salamanca hastened the departure of the French from San Roque, but BALLASTEROS had pi•eviously a smart affair with them at Ossuna, in which his army greatly distinguished itself.
