Why, reader', be tells such .a .story ! • Oh, Cat, such a story, as would make the very stones in the .etyeet rise op in judgtuant against biro. We have not Mime in yo into the matter here ; bat we will do it, were . it only for the cariosity of the thing.--Who would be lieve that the Doctor became the spy of the Governor; told him all the secrets of bit patients ; called_soune of them Flats and thieves.; told all manner of evil things of t:teut to the Governer ; and that he dittall this purely front 7 egard jbr Napoletnt ; that be told all the secrets of his ts..hold ; that be beck bited the whole of them to the Governor; and that he did this, oven at the request of AapOtron himself!!! Well has it been observed that grad men tell no tales; hnt, if what this man says be tette ; it Hnonsparte did instruct hire to be the Govern or's •jrl upon him Ilnonaparte himself ; what are we to tiribk of hoonaparte!-41owever, the story is manifestly It is minifestly invented for the desperate pur pose endeavouring to afford some sort of answer to the tonclusive accusations contained in the Quarterly Rev'ew. We wonder that the Morning . Chronicle is not asl,arned of sending forth such a publication at all ; and erpeLially without giving its 'pinion of it. A yarnburg Mail has also arrived this morning, which contains an article, dated Frankfort, March 9th, stating on the authority of letters from Colin, that on the retreat of the Yorks from Slussolorrgi, the Greek Chief pent_ trated to Voroclsie, the capital of Efolia, and there had an action a ith the larks, who attempted to defend them selves. This they did for time from their houses, till the iireeks set them on fire, when they were forted to re . twat. • Blyinne parrs came to hand this morning, af which the iug are extract' BAtONNS, MARCH 7.—The two couriers which had been anxiously expected here for these few days from Madrid have arrived. That which left that capital on the 28th.. WPM stopped on his first setting out from Iran bta bawl of the Faith who took all his letters and burnt them. Various troops still continne to arrive daily. This day two couriers passed through here on their nay to Paris, and a-Spanish Cabinet one for Lon don... tieneral Fluia is expected at Bayonne. From the v arious accounts received here, we learn, that the expedition of Bessieres had entirely tailed, and that the remainder of his troops had arriyed on the right bank of the Ebro, in a most wretched condition. 'French Papers to the ISth instant bave arrived since our lest. Their'imateitit confirm, though in an obscure manner, the rumours which prevailed in town on Satur day, that disaffection and insubordination had displayed themselves to a great extent amongst the troops collected for the I nyasion of Spain. The clearest allusion to the subject is the statement that . "a . report had been made to the Duke of ANGOULIMS by the Alajor.desteral, on the situation of the several corps of the triny."

Ha- ! dajoz was at first mentioned, but the choice was chaeged from Ilatlajoz to Seville to meet the wisbeit of his Majery. who preferred the latter city. Politicians of all parties, who prefer the maintenance of fictional isdependence tel the acceptance of laws dictated by foreign soldiers, are Inc favour of the immediate transfer of toe. Government.' Vie people of Madrid, who .will suffer most by being'. deprived of the residence of the Court anti Cortes, are in its favour. The grand procession of the Court and Legislature of a gallantmation is to be appropriately escorted by the Militia or National Guard.. Gothic road between Seville and the capital, the country has been cleared of tire (actions. The same brief militia; who executed this important service when Bessieres advenewl, have offered to accompany the King to Andalniis. end' to place him in safety. In the mein time, his Majesty is raid to suffer from an attack of the gout. With every delicate attention to the state of the Royal health, but perhaps at the same time with sonic sespicion that the malady might be wore of a political than of a phy sical kind. phesicians were on the 6th appoint. ed to visit his Majesty, an to report their opinion on his ability to undertake the journey without inconve oience and without danger. " In France the Government seems eager for immedi ate hostilities, hot their preparations are not in propor tion to their zeal. • A report on the stars of the army is said to have been transinit.ed by a General Officer to the Duke d'Angouleme, and by him laid before the Council of Ministers, which, if it has not damped the ardour of the crusaders, has at least occasioned them some misgiv ings. This report states, that the army is not prepared for immediate operations either by its numbers, materiel, or its spirit. The Prcsident of the Council is c.iid to have observed, that the fault of inadequate preparation did not lie with him; that be, ail Miniver of Finance, allowed the necessarsr fonds, and that the Minister of War alone-was responsible for their use, or for not demanding more. In consequence of this dissatisfaction with Belluno, it was stated that the porteftuille of war was offered to Mar. mont, who declined it unless 200,000 men and 400 mil lions of francs were placed at his disposal for carrying on the war. The Ministry are certainly dissatisfied with Belluno, but whether he will be immediately dismissed is not so certain. The utmost number of troops as yet assembled on the frontier does not exceed 35,000 men.— The first division cannot be io line at the beginning of April. No wonder that the Duke &Amp:oakum should still be opposed to the war. A bon met is current con cerning his Royal HigLness, vriiich supposes his reluet &lnce, and states its reason Le Duc d'Angoulense est rontre la guerre, purcetue it doit y et le Comte d'Artoie eat pour la gowns, .poreeque it n'y we pus: " ittluilkiiilUvilitretailemidai. *As chamber of Pain, oh the Vote of tiliali 'far 'lOO rolinalls, was almost ee , . Ma)9Val ionrdan, the Baron de Barente, Marquis de Castaan, sod the Dula de . Broglie were heard against the project of law, and the Doke de Nor bonne, the Coort de St. Roman, and the Count de Polig nac In its favour. The discussion was adjourned to the fol lowing day. A subscription is mid to be taising at Lyons to .purchase some testimonial of respect and admiration for .the conduct of M. Manuel; and several citizens of Konen, Methbers of the National Ouard of that city, have addressed a letter of congratulation to M. blercier for his conduct on the 4th inst. The news from Spain received through the French papers comes down to the 7th ins', and will be found in another column. The Duke of A ngouleme, accoruing to a private account, which is also in another part of our paper, set out from Paris for the frontiers, on Saturday last. FUNDS ON Fatteay.---Five per Dents.

It is stated that tbstEspressfrans Paris has brought the French rands 7740, but this price has not been offisially,mmomicedop to the present hone. Spanish at Paris wits 28k; a fall in two days of 41 per Cent. The debates in the Cortes, and the departure of the Duke D'Angouleme, has had some effect is the foreign market this morning, owing to the open confession of its members that the French army would reach Madrid without opposition. The steadiness of our Consols is attributed to this country remaining neutral, and no warlike preparations being made on the pa►t of our Government. Some business was doing in the market in the earlier part of the morn ing, but not of magnitude. FOREIGN MARKET.-oWilig to the information from Spain and France this morning, Spanish opened at 29, went down to 27i, 26i, with a beery Market, and scarcely any Buyers of the above Stink.

Mr. Sussex Lenox left town with despatches for the lonian Islards. The attack of gent, from which Mr. Canning is slowly recovering, was so severe, that he could not fur several days be removed from the Foreign Office, where the pa rcxysm seized him. gxtraot of a letter from the Agent to Lloyd's at for deaux, dated March 7:-" The fear of a war with Eng land has compelled many houses to suspend their ship "meats both fur the East and West Indies. There has been very heavy weather in the bay for several days." " According to accounts received by the Arabella packet,' which ssiled from Lisbon on the 2nd instant, and arrived .at Falmouth on Tuesday last, the attempt to effect s change in the Portuguese Ministry had produced a very .stroog sensation at Lisbon. When the packet sailed, a considerable degree of confusion prevailed. There ran be 11 tle douht that the project has been frustrated. The Portuguese Cortes continued firm in their determhiation to rnake.common canoe with Spain, in misting the threat ened attack of the French Government.—({Vert Briton.) The number of passengers from Dover to Calais, and from Calais to Dover, was i n ordinary times pretty equal. Fur some time past it has been observed, that Otose rout ing to France was considerably less. Between the 341 and the 9th inst. five packet-boats arrived at Calais, with 191 passengers; .and seven sailed for England, with 3911 passengers.—(Constitetionnel.) PLYMOUTH, MARCH 13.—Yesterday the four guard ships lying here received orders to fit agreeahly to the orders irsued to them in January 1817, and to enter men, to the number they were then; the Britannia to have an increase of 217, the others 165 men each. PORTYMOUTH, MARCH 15.—0 n Tuesday orders were received here to fit the three goardships at this port, viz. the Queen Charlotte,Ramillies, and Albion, and put them into a state of full peace establishment, the same as they were in the year 1817. The number of men in the Queen Charlotte will thereby be increased from 150 to 360, with three additional Lteutenants ; and of the two other ships, from 135 to 300. with two additional Lieute nants to each. This order is regsrded as having one of two objects in view,--either the exercise of the guard ships during the ensuing summer on a cruise, or as pre paratory to their more efficient equipment as a squadron of observation, should the present menaced invasion of Spain by France terminate in a war between time coun tries. No orders of a correspondent import, or having a more warlike arpect (if these can be so denuminated), have been yet received by any of the other official depart ments here. The s•true orders have been issued to the guard ships at the other pone, which constitute, together, a force of ten sail of the line. The following are their names and stations : —A t Portsmouth—Queen Charlotte, 108, Admiral Sir James Hawkins Whitahed, K.C.8., Captain Baker Hay ; Ramillies, 74, Captain Edward Brace, C.B. ; Albion, 74, Sir Wm.

Many admonitions have our rulers had to urge and guide them at the present crisis. The wisest men on earth have counsellettthein ; and what is mdre, they are warned by the powers above. In the Loyal Alm:snack by FRANCIS Moons, the Vox Stellaruoa, for the latter end of this month, says— ' 1 , The conjunction of Sol and the Goi of War has pore meaning than I dare tell; though it does , not augur ,billy for old k:ngland,if our Members of both Houses . of Parliament, now assembled, do not antler thu ;ucky moment to escape them. Time and tide stay for no man not even when In full Parliament met: and if they let the celestial influences elude their grasp, they may sit for years, nay ages, before the stars shall show an other so favourable an aspect.

A trainithed !Matinee was produced on Saturday at this Theatre, described as 'a tragedy, bearing the title of Julian. It is from the pen of Miss MITCORD, and she will at least have the honour of being the first of her sex who gave origin to a seriourdraina, with even tolerable pretmsions to merit. If we speak of this production as a trage ly, and apply to it all the tests which that designation would demand, it is decidedly bad ; for it is deficient in many of the leading characters which are its imperative requi sites. In short, it possesses good situations, incidents of considerable interest, and some poetry, both with regaill to imagination and language, of a superior kind. But it is deficient in character, in plot, and in nature. There are no ruling passions delineated, no irresistibly impelling motives of conduct; and enusequently there is an abundance of absurdity and contradiction in the sentiments and acts allotted to the principal parts. The general interest of the play weakens after the third act. This is so much the case, that the ef forts of the author to hunt np incident and matter for the last two, are frequently visible to an unplea sant extent. This accounted for a considerable dimi nution of 'applause from that point, and the gradual in crease of malcontents. Upon the whole however, the play was successful ; and although there was some opposition to • its repetition on Monday, it was feeble in comparison to the applause.
