NArotrores Address to the Legislative Body has et yet reachei this country, except in the mutilated pon of extracts. A single Moniteur of the 31st ult. has s een r eceived by Government, but the only news contiins is the departure of the Emperor from Ram bouillet. This event took place on the SOth.—Mr. s l ay did not arrive in Paris till the 31st.—The object o f 14ArotEoN's tourney is not mentioned, nor the w i l es of any d the personages with whom he was secompan ied ; but there can be little doubt that Bayonne is the place to which he is bound. His de parture before the arrival of Mr. SRAw, is, we think, p l a i n indication.that he knew the propositions which he andALEXANDER had made to our Government, cou ld not be entertained for a moment. SPANISH PAPERS. since oar last Madrid Gazettes to the tOth ult, fare been received. They contain some documents Te lative to the disturbance which took place on the 17 t h, and an Order of the Supreme Junta for putting A ussisition all the horses in the neighbourhood, f r the purpose of mounting the volunteer cavalry, and s upplying the artillery with the number requisite for their m ovements. The horses are all to be valued by veterinary officers and farriers, and the proprietors sze to be paid for them accordingly. Those horses which are employed in necessary purposes are to be last taken. THE CONTINENT. Dutch and German Papers have also arrived, from which we have been able to make a few extracts.— Thar strong apprehensions of a war between France and Austria had been entertained before the late con ference at Erfurth is obvious, from the depression that had taken place in the Austrian Goyernment Paper. On the arrival, however, of couriers from Boon VON VINCENT, after the conferences he had with Axv.ANDER and NAPOLEON at Erfurth, the value of the same paper is said to have risen about four per cent. This circumstance seems to confirm the re port that the differences between France and Austria had been, fir the present at least, adjusted. The great anxiety evinced in the Continental Journals to prove a pacific disposition both, on the part of Austria, and not long since oa that of France, clearly indicates on both sides the previous existence of a contrary inten- tion. NAPOLEON, bovfever, found it convenient to temporize, and Austria appears to have thought it lopedient to adopt the same line of policy. The for. linithus gains his object in being enabled to bear down with his whole force upon Spain, fully intend. ing, of which there can be no doubt, that if he con quers Spain, Austria shall be the next victim. A.us mia may probably on the other hand look to Spain as tie means by which the power of NAPOLEON may ultimately be overthrown, whilst her own resources and strength.are in the mean time improving and in creasing. Whatever may have been the motive, the !molt appears evident from the immediate effect pro. lied upon the tone and temper of the Austrian Go vernment, by the conferences at Erfnrth. 24 31% Int e. !al, bit ice has The new levies have been in some instances dis banded, and their only object is now stated to be the 'teaching the people the use of arms. The Presburg Casette of the 14th ult. contains an article to this OFect, which also labours to pr:ove the cordiality sub lie% bBja Austria, Russia, and France, and ./illeablars.cooroborating circumstance, that the Aus- Akiiiiiiits sent to compliment the French and Russian Emperors at Erfurth had been received in a manlier that assured a continuance of the close and Cordial intimacy at present subsisting. Letters from Petersburgh confirm a report previ ously received, that the embargo in all the Russian ports had been taken off on the Bth ultimo. Various taus; are assigned for the original measure of the embargo : some say, that it was solely owing to 'some attempts at a contraband traffic by the Ame ricans, which the Government found it difficult other- et it, iiest ll* to repress ; others say, and with more probabi- Etr of truth, that it was laid on to deprive the Eng lib and Swedish fleets of provisions, and which other would have been conveyed to them by neutrals. Every thing is tranquil in Russia. The merchants .rxeplain, indeed, and well they may, for there have *fifty vessels of all nations entered Cronstadt this no public voice in Russia, the :harts are not regarded.

Four of the convoy fell into the hands of the Danes, and were burned by them. The French,.it appears, have withdrawn from the ports of Pomerania.

The Court of Inquiry into Sir HEW DALRYMPLE'S conduct in Portugal, which was expected to sit this day at Chelsea, will not be assembled until the arri val in Town of all the parties interested : it is not likely that the day will be fixed, until General air A. WELLESLEY is actually in town, and he is not ex pected until the latter end of this week. Generals Sir H. BURRARD and SPENCER are also expected from Portugal daily, and their evidence will be re quired early in the commencement of the investigation about to take place. Monday next has been mentioned as the day upon which the proceedings will com mence at Chelsea, but nothing certain is known on this subject even among those officially interested. The British forces now in Spain are all to rendez vous at Valladolid. When ass _.mbled, they will amount to at least 40,000 men. 'pure are besides to be 10,000 men stationed in Portugal, tinder the command of Sir JOHN CRADOCK, who succeeds General BURRARD. General BURRARD is recalled, and Sir JOHN CRADOCK takes his departure this week for Portugal, to assume the command of the British troops in that country. This morning, five troops of the 14th Dragoons marched through the Metropolis, on their route for Falmouth, where they expect to be embarked for Spain. The names of the officers commanding them were Captains BAKER, BROTHERTON, STIRLING, KNIGHTLET, and CHAPMAN. The men were quar tered during part of Saturday, and the whole of yes terday, at Islington and at Bow, where they gained the esteem of the inhabitants for their steady and orderly conduct. The men are in high health and spirits, and appear impatient to exhibit the superiority of British valour, led on by zeal and patriotism, to French tactics, with no object to fight for but plunder and absolute power. The wind has been so favoUrable since the 7th, 10th, and 15th regiments of Light Dragoons sailed to join Sir JOHN MOORE'S army in Spain, that they have no doubt reached Corunna by this time. They embarked eight troops each, being about 800 men. Two troops of each of the above regiments are left in England, to recruit. A Court-Martial was this morning assembled at Chelsea, for the trial of a Quarter-Master in the East London Militia, on charges preferred againsthim by Captain RIGBY, of that regiment. COURT MARTIAL.—On Wednesday last, a General Court-Martial was assembled in the State-Room, on the platform, Portsmouth, for the trial of Paymaster Lewis, of the Bth Royal Veteran Battalion. Members of the Court:—General PORTER, President: Colonel TER ItOTT, Lieut.-Colonel Sear, Captain DURNTOR 0, Captain DOUGLAS, j I I MACLAINE, FITZGLIA.LO, I HERRIOTT, Bowes, Lieut. Lawn, Lieut. PARKER, MAINWAEING, Gamma, SMITH, BLANCHASS. Captain Annavasr, Judge-Advocate. The Charges are— For requiring flour from the Contractor for bread, for his own private use, and refusing to pay the Contractor the money due to him, till he sent him some flour. Also, for having, at different times in the years 1807 and 1808, received, or allowed to be received, into his house, for his own private use, as a perquisite, bread and flour, from persona em ployed by the Contractor. The Prosecution is expected to close on Tuesday. Thursday he will make his defence. Mr. Lawn is assisted by R. W. Missmo, Esq. Barrister ; and Mr. HOWARD, Solicitor, Portsea. We lately announced the arrival of General KEL taiamAN in the AFRICADIE frigate at Portsmouth, from Lisbon, on his way to Calais, at which port he expressed a wish to Sir C. CorreN, that he might be allowed to disembark, instead of Rochelle orL'Orient, in conformity with the convention, of which General Kiti.Lsallaw signed the basis. We understand, that General KELLERMAN'S request was not confined to I himself, but that he has also requested the permission of the British government for the garrisons of Elves 1 and Almeida, as well as the remaining French tromps who were forced back to Lisbon by stress of weather, to sail imMediately for France. The General, how ever, although he left the Tagus, confident that he would be sent directly to Calais, h as not been allowed. to pursue his journey to France, until information has' been received that the transports employed in cpn veying JUNOT'S troops from Lisbon have been per mitted to leave the French ports, and return to Eng land. hi the mean time, the General, after remain ing a fortnight on board the AFRICAINR, at Spithea.d, has been permitted, on account of his health, to lad at Ryde, in the Isle of Weight, on parole. .. ~•~•.

They, of course, will be landed in France. Had they re mained on board the Harmony, as the Captain of the privateer wished, their fate would now have been different.
