In the sitting of the 18th, the President of the 'hnta delivered the following speech GENTLZSIEN—The King wishes that not a moment should be lost by him in making his people enjoy that happluess which • it the constant object of his vows and solicitude. Being animated loy these sentiments of beneficence, his Majesty has signified to me that he wished to relieve his subjects from the burthen of that kind of contribution, which is morr e •articularly hurtful to agri. (shore, which discourages the husbandman, and which augments &price of articles of the first necessity. I . have pointed out to Ms Majesty, as producing these baneful eff:eni, the temporary tax of four nurvedis per quart of wine, and that of three per cent. upon all the produce which Is subject to the tythes. I have, at the same time, represented to him that it would be granting a rat benefit totals subject! to deliver them frum so heavy a bur then, which is attended with this consequence, that the farmers, despairirs of any.amelioration In their situation, root tla the vines horn those lands which are destintd Dy a4ture for their cultiva tion. " His Majesty bas vouchsafed to listen to my propesal ; bat not wishing to hazard :Warms without mature reflection, and de sirous of receiving every if:formation from all those who are sin ettelyaniwated for the public verlfare,be has ordered me to submit We skint to the deliberation of the Junta, in order to make to biaskawards a separate report upon It. I hope that the Junta will be eager to second his MaJesty'i liehas,and that tke Spaniards will judge by this first benefit what they raay expect for the prosperity of the kingdom, both front tit intentions of the Monarch, and the labours of the Junta." The Junta, after having heard this speech with the most lively satisfaction, unanimously decreed that they would inform his Majesty that the tax upon wine is ruinous to agriculture, and that that of S per cent. neon the fruits produces a mere trifle, and is vexatious lot collecting, so that the abolition of these two taxes would be a great benefit ; that, finally, a Deputation Of four members should be chosen from among them, to lay at the foot of tie throne the expression of the wishes and the gratitude of the Junta. In the name cf die Deputation, the Duke del Infantado gave an account, in the sitting of the 20th, of the gracious re ception he had met with from his Majesty. The King again assured them that he had- no other view than to promote the happiness of Spain, and that they tight depend upon the suppression of the cases which attack to agriculture. • • • • _ 4ll , T IE • . • • - aki le , . fm'. • !.1 • 4`.1 ..,‘ • .at _ • • WEDNESDAY, JULY 15. • ' PRIdE OF STOCKS THIS DAY AT ONE O'CLOCK: Canso* money, 70f —July, 701—Reduced 69--Omnium Excheq.

Our Readers will see with pleasure that the ac• counts previously received of the ardour with which the Spanish nation is animated against a perfidious invader were not exaggerated. They will also be rejoiced to find that in Portugal the determined spirit of the people to throw off the French yoke, exceeds any idea that had been formed of it. In addition to the interesting details published in the Gazette, we have given some more of the docu ments- published by the Spanish Patriots ; and it gives us much satisfaction to be able to add that all the private letters from Portugal wear the same com plexion as the details of our Commanders. The fol lowing letter is from the North of that kingdom : VIANA, JUNE 19. " We have this day freed ourselves from the French yoke, and have declared In favour of our Prince, in whose cause every one is in arms. A similar occurrence took place at Oporto yesterday, and Lisbon only now remains in the hands of the French. A flag of truce is this day seat to the fleet off Lisbon, to endeavour to communicate with that city, with St. Übes, and Algarva. None of the French in Portugal will escape." Letters of the 18th from Lisbon state, that at that time JUNOT was in the utmost fear and consternation for his safety ; he ha,l strongly fortified Fort Saint George, which stands on a high hill in the centre of Lisbon, the immense cisterns of which had been re paired and put in complete order, to receive a large supply of water. , Provisions in great quantities had also been seen red. The Russian fleet in the Tagus had likewise Teen amply provisioned, in expectation of future sup. plies being entirely cut off. The disarming ofthe Spa niards, and their being sent on board hulks in the Tagus, with every other circumstance connected with his fears are, in the letters received yesterday, fully described and conarrned. It appears also, that Ju- Nor was proceeding to fortify the whole of the heights between Belem and St. Julien's, to render them im• pregnable, and capable of preventing the entrance of any force whatever into the Tagus. The Burlings had been fortified and manned by the British squa dron, under the command of Admiral COTTON. It is a circumstance much to be regretted, that a few days previous to its being known in Portugal, that Spain had t isen to assert her rights, 76 carts, richly laden with silver from the churches and other religious depositories at Oporto and other towns in Port...T:ll, entered Lisbon, and were delivered to JuNoT, as a 'portion of one of his forced contributions on tile people. 6. • Mo. •er Kt es, ird Rd roa to the be far ba car ITO s of IV'. . Mtn ; I Wee ' the/ use be SWEDEN. AU the private letters by the mail of yesterday al lude in some way or other to the misunderstanding between the King of SWEDEN and Sir JOHN MOORE. Some accounts state this affair inlhe following man na- The King of SWEDEN demanded from General MOORE the uncontrolled command of the British troops, in order to employ them in a manner which the General conceived to be contrary to the in structions he had received ; he accordingly refused compliance, alledging that he had been appointed Commander in Chief by his Sovereign, the King of ENGLAND, and of course, could not resign it to any other Person on earth. On this the. King of Swum; informed the General, that powers had been vested in him by th_ British Government supe rior to those held by the General. Sir Joint then said, 4 If your Majesty will condescend to produce those orders to me, they shall be punctually obeyed." This so enraged his Majesty, that 1 .7._ ordered him to be placed under arrest ; but the General escaped in the following manner : JouNsow the Messenger was at Stockholm, and had a cart in waiting a short dis. tance from the city, to which General MOORE found means of access in the dress of a private gentleman, and by this conveyance he arrived at Gottenburgh at five o'clock on the evening of Wednesday the 29th June, after an astonishing short journey of 46 hours. He first visited bis apartments at Gottenburgh, for the purpose of ascertaining that his papers had safely been carried on board the VICTORY ; which having ascertained, he proceeded alongside that ship, dis guised as he had travelled from Stockholm. 4 , It is added, however, that the dispute was merely personal, and does not even remotely connect itself with the good understanding which subsists between the two Governments. The King of Sweden had publicly declared, that, had he :ix higgdoms, he would not sacrifice the least of them to purchase a peace with France." We wish we could add, that we give credit tothe letter part of the above statement. We do not. On the contrary we believe that there is every reason at di:s moment to apprehend a rupture between the two countries.

The Birrertor is arrived at Portsmouth from the Mediterranean, and a person entrusted with full powers from the Ottoman Porte, accompanied by his Secretary, is arrived in England. . The object of his mission is perfectly underst vd, and his arrival is not unexpected. Three months ago a proposition was made to our Commanders in the Mediterranean by the Reis Effendi, requesting that a person invested with full powers Should "be nominated by the court of Great Britain to meet a person tobe nominated by the Porte, to negociate a peace between the two countries ; and it was understcod that this criginated :n the cir cumstance of the Divan having come to the knoW ledge of the real object of the conspiracy against the Turks, which was finally digested In. the - ,confe rence at Tilsit.
