The Gazette of last night contains the official particulars of the capture of the settlement of Senegal in Afriea.-- Major Maxwell, Commandant of the island of Goree, attacked it with 168 men, accompanied by Capt. CoLum- UM e s in the Solebay frigate. In passing the bar they lost a schooner. The enemy having retired to a battery about twelve miles up the river. Major MaxwELL prepared to attack them, but was prevented by their evacuating the battery in the night. On the next day the fort and' island capitulated, and the garrison are prisoners of war. The military force of the island consisted of only 160 Euro peans and about 240 native militia. The Solebay frigate was lost owing to her running aground in silencing a bat tery which commanded the bar, but the crew and stores were saved. The loss of men, sustained by the English on this service, has been that of Capt. Frederick Parker of the Derwent, Mr. F. A. Sealey, midshipman of the sloop, and six seamen wounded in attempting to cross the bar. The quantity of gum exported from this settlement is about 600 tons annually.

We have received two valuable cotnrattnications ; one from a " Political Correspondent," and the other flout au " English Artist," whie:i shall appear in our next. The very great importance of the subjects Tv i;11 will be found in The National Register of this day, again induces us to omit Out usual statements of London Markets. THE NATIONAL R ELT' IS I 14AI Lantana - 4111:41PAY, AUGUST 27, 1809. POLITICAL EVEATS OP TUB 0 ZEE'. The splendid and meridian rays of hope which the Tic . i tory of Talavera shed upon the political liorizon,.have been obscured by ihe intelligence whicti 'was received front Spain on Thursday last, and vAlicii has been since confirm ed by other private communications. Although the official dispatches from Sir A. WELLFLEY have not yet been re ceived by Government, they are said to have been sent from Sir A. WELLESLEY intmedi•atelv upon to.c; arrival at Delectosa, and to have been forwaried by Admiral BFRICE-• . LEY in the Britannia cutter. Sir A. WrwlLEr is state. 4 to be perfectly confident that he cannot be attacked to advantage in this position, or that if he were, he should be able to defend himself till reinforCements arrive. This state of things is certainly very unexpected, and we reluctantly acknowledge the skill and energy which after a Cefeat so very decisive, the French Generals have displayed, and by means of which they have in turn become the assaint:,— . The French seem to have formed a pretty aocur.‘te oti mate of the Spanish soldiery—men whom the enthusiaiin of liberty will not excite, eau only form the lumber of an army. Notwithstanding the general terms in which Sir' ARTanit'S dispatch was worded, it was obvious to the com mom sense- of the country that the Spaniards were either. cowards or traitors, it could not be necessary for 35,000 men to keep t& !;. .1 . owed for 28,000, who were fighting their battles. Their conduct was repugnant to every natural, to every manly fccling or the, in . kud, and if the Spanish cause is only to be supported by British blood, there is we fear an end of it. It does not appear that the Spanish Junta are even at tentive to provide our troops with the necessaries of life,. much less with the recitkis . ites for a campaign. They had better employ themselves in procuring mutton for the armies we send to their assistance, than in sending their flocks to . this country. If either of these duties were to he neglected certainly it was not the former. But this they should have' done, and not have left the other undone. • No ad vices that we have received since our last, remove, the incertitude, which prevailed, respecting the Armistice between France and Austria, contradictory reports are still circulating. The Hamburg!' Pap ers of the 1 I th, allude to a report from Brandenbtirgli, tlkat notice had been given to tecininate the Armistice. And other reports from Moravia recognize the fact of the Archduke Cnaimr.s having re tired from the command of the Austrian army,, and eonfirm, the appointment'of Prince Jon x. We are not of opinion with some of our brother journalists, that the delay which . has occurred between the report of the notice having beea given of the Armistice, and the confirmation of that report . nalates against its probability. We are not of opinion, • •
