The 'difficulty of obtaining authentic intelligence from that ocentry, allows us only to hazard conjectures relative to bervesseetioa with Russia; but there is reason to con *bade, from the wisdom and activity observable in her -military arrangements, that she has not been remiss in assuring the co-operation, or at least, neutrality of ALan -meranat.

We would sot have condescended to give this catchpenny rumour of one of the Evening Pa pers a place in our Journal, did we not think it a duty in cumbent on us, to declare formally and peremptorily, that there is as much falsehood in this account, as there is re prehensible inconsiderateness on the part of those, who in •ult the public feeling and understanding with such imper tinessee., Even were it as true as it is unfounded, we would, by oo swam, consider it as a cause of dejection : it would only tend to concentrate the energies of a people. whom prosperity, too easily acquired, might tend to divide.— However, the sacred cause" - of that country, supported by 60,000 Britons, is now too far advanced, and too consoli dated, to be endangered by the undivided army of the Tyrant.

A certain Marquis, who had since been arrested, was at the head of it. The se. amours on this subject are, however, various and contradictory. From Priestu Santo Maria, we leans, that Dupont and his thaffarrived there on the 14th instant, in order to embark for 'l ll mace. During the embarkation of the baggage, which the populace beheld with the utmost indignation, one of the pack ages burst open, and part of the sacramental plate fell throu g h : it was them no onger possible to restrain the fury and ra ge or the people, who immediately rushed upon, seized and tote away the whole. Dupont has since had the insolence to write to Deis James Morla, the Governor of Cadiz, to demand restoration of what he and his troops had themselves stolen from the Spaniards.

" There are net," adds be, " transports, nor any means of obtaining them, for the conveyance of your troops. What cur be a greater proof of this, than that we retain your troops here at a great expense, Inste ad of removing them to another coun try. " General Castanos. when he promised to obtain a passport from the English for the passage of your army, could only en gage to solicit one with earnestness, as he has done. But how can your Excellency suppose that the British ships would suffer your troops to pass, certain that they were going to make war on their nation in some other place. " I cannot persuade myself that either General Castaaos or your Excellency would believe that such a Capitulation could be carried into effect. The object of your Excellency mast have been to obtain con ditions which, though impossible, might do honour to your sur render. We must, however, submit to the imperious law of ne cessity.
