Fur our. selva, we confess our anxiety and curiosity is this respect to be undiminished. Important Hs has been that contest, of which the successful result has dually and indisoutably established the Nara.

Tom a great change meat now inevitably take place in the political state of so. cicty, can no longer be doubted ; and that swab change will lie ultimately productive of an ame lioration of the general condition of mankind, there is every reasonable ground to expect.— The year 1808 will be for ever memorable by the abolition of that tribunal of blood and torture — the Inquisition"of Madrid.

THE STATESMAN. 66 Roue, JULY 10.—The Jow•Kal of Ms Ca pitol contains a variety of Decrees of the new Government. One of these abolishes the Tribu nal of the Inquisition, and all the establishments attached to it. The archives and papers belonging to these several jurisdictions are put under )cal ) and consigned to the depdi of ►ha archives ) an inventory of them being made. " By soother Decree, a great amber of cape. dal Tribunals are also abolished, as well as every teenpor4l jurisdiction hitherto possessed by the Clergy, secular and regular. All clerical privi. luges are'unnulled. " The right of asylum exists me loager ; in con. sequence, the authors or accomplices of crimes will no longer be sheltered from the vengeance of the law. " A oar establishment is niade of Jestires of the Peace, &c. all of whom are nomiuted by the Emperor. 1- By a third Decree, a Committee is appointed t .r the preservation of all the ancient and modern monuments of Rome, and the Roman States. This Coalmines is particularly charged to take precast. twits fur preserving the cupola of St. Peter from lightning ; and the paintings of Raphael, which are on the loggi of the Vatican, from injuries arising tram the air. This Committee consists of Mar. tortlli, Director of the Imperial Archives ; Ma. Director of the Library of the Vatican ; Ca. nova and Cam uccini." Tne above article is extracted from a French Journal, of which several were received do ,n to the 25th of July. VVnether these Papers are a continuation of the allegml ingenious forgery of the Armistice, we do nut pretend to decide— perhaps those Quidnunc:, who can see a plot in every thing—who can believe every thing—swat. low every thing, however gross—train the masba cre of 25,000 armed Frenchmen in the streets of Madrid by the bairn of the iohabitauts—down to the British inventions of " Official Accounts from, Germany"—and the alleged French for. genes of the .4rinistke, may, perhaps, think that to forge an account of the execution of the conditions of that armistice, is perfectly natural. Certain, however, it is, that these Papers contain accounts of offers of submission by the inhabit. ants of the Tyrol, sod of the occupation of Pres. burg, in Hungary, by the French troops. It is also stated, as a report, that Preliminaries of Peace have already been signed between France and Austria; bat this, although probable, we imagine to be preesatere. The return of JO&IPH to Madrid is' also an. nonoced—his presence with his army being no longer necessary. In a private letter that bas been received, the fears of the people of England, for the ultimate triumph of the'Spa. niards against their invaders, are ridiculed aw 66 1191fianiSe." We are, however, so 6 woman ish" as to bare lost all confidence in the exertions of the Spaniards, ashen we bee a wholwaraty so 41 wousaaish" as that of the gallant...deserted.-- mortilieJ---Gettcral BLASE...." take to their heels." 'rat the NAPOLEON Dynasty in the Peninsula will be finally establislivi...4ll4l that too at no remote period---is, we think, a certain and in evitable consequence of the termination of hostili ties between France and Austria. Or the operations of the Expedition, no certain information has yet arrived.—Reports of a contradictory nature have been received by a Dutch sebuyt, and a vessel from the Ems.—lt is now confidently asserted, by many who pretend to be in the secret, that if it should be ansmcoess. ful in the first object, its ulterior destination, (to use a favourite cant sord,) is the Baltic.— But be its destination wbers it may, the bra. very said energies of our sailors and soldiers will be exerted in vain.--The crisis, we are con. .vincial, is absolutely passed, in which this Power of England could have been applied with any prospect of arresting the progress of Nato. LioW—Uad the Armies in Spain—in Sicily I —and with the Expedition—been concentrated io the North of Germany while the Army of Austria was entire—the real sentiments of the inhabitants of that part of Europe had been certainly ascertained ; and were they such as to us they are represented to be, there might have been a chance of success—NA po cot might have been compelled to return to France through Italy —and the Rhine had possibly been the boundary of bis dominions—To as, the hope of success from any Expedition, now seems to be absolutely delusiue. Oar Navy and Army can achieve what perhaps no equal number of human beings in existent.e chi. achieve ; but they cannot elect impossibilities—and of this, those who now think they can, will finally be convinced. Ws yesterday presented to the public a full and faithful report of what passed on Tuesday is the court of Cosmos Council down to the speech of Mr. Alderman Ammo ; and this day, will be found, five remainder of the proceedings.— When It is consWered, what has been the state of " viptelage" for years, of this Guile, the civic infinence, and the wealth of many of its Mem. ben,—the connection of that wealth with the Ad. ministrations of the Country for the time being, and the reviving influence, with the Nation, of the opinions of the Court of Common Council, the Resolutions of Tuesday may be considered as the expression of the sentiments and opinions of the People of England--agroni usigierity of whom are, beyond all doubt, convinced of the merit of Colonel WARDLE, and of the REAL value of the important SERVICES HE HAS RENDERED TO HIS COUNTRY. Tas termination and result of the Trial of Lord GAMBIER was inserted yesterday by mistake. It Is not certain that the trial will be terminated till tomorrow. Yesterday his MAJCITY held a Privy Council, and gave audience to the Cabinet Ministers pre. sent, when Mr. RYDER, the Judge Advocate, laid before his Maserry the proceedings of sere. ral Courts-Martial ; and the RECOADIR reported the number of convicts under sentence of death at the last Sessions. His MaJerri appeared in good health and spirits, and, about half put five o'clock, left town for Windsor. General Twist; had the honour of being pre. seated to his MA/OTT yesterday, on his appoint. meet of Colosel.Comenandant to the Royal Engi. seers. A Patent is preparing fur creating Mr. Cocaa. an, of Piccadilly, a Baronet. A victualler arrived at Yarmouth on Tuesday, from the Dutch coast, which she left on Saturday evening ; reports, that the firstand second divisions of the fleet were off Flushing, and preparations were making for disembarking the troops ; that Admiral GARDNCR was about three miles to lee ward, with eight pail of the line. An Expedition is now Siting out at Cork, but its extent is not known. Sixty transports, recently arrived from Lisbon, will be employed in it. By letters from St. Helena, by the itocina, dat ed the 24th of May last, advice has bei it received that the ships Lady Castlereagh,HAuturoN, and Csiffstells,‘V LLEANK, were expected to proceed on their voyage in the course of a week, almost tile:Wed their cargoes consigned (or that island. LOUIS BONAPARTE, King of Holland has had recourse to the extraordinary expedient of taking the children, educated at the public espence, or on charitable foundations, for the use of the army. The children themselves, and particularly such of them as arc grown up, are very hiistile to the measure. They have absconded and deserted in great numbers, and the people have rescued and secreted them. The Laudroust (ur High Sheriff) of Maasiand has published an Address to the Burghers of Rotterdam on this occasion, knite ing obedience, and announcing his determination,' as well as that of the Government, to enforce the Decree for devoting these children to the military profession. By a vessel from Embdesy there are reports, that in Aldenberg and Minute, the people are, ripe fur insurrection, if our armament - preesei thither, so u to afford a rallying point to the in. habitants. The Master of a Dutch schuyt reports that he saw the Expedition, consisting of sew= or eight hundred sail, late on Saturday, struggling with a strong westerly wind, and that teen was at that time so heavy a surf on the beach that no landing could be effected. The Proprietors of the Winter Theatres west yesterday to the Loan CHAMBERLAIN'S OISCe, and entered their protest against the claims of Messrs. Gasett.t.a and ELLurros, for a licence to play dramatic pieces in the ensuing season' at the Opera House. The officers preseet stated, that they were not apprised of any such intention on the part of the Earl of atarnourn, who is now in Derbyshire. Many serious, and some fatal accidents, were caused by lightning, last week, in Selliollt. •••111d.• We have the pleasures of laying before the pub. he et account of a brilliant achievement against the /Lassie° flotilla in the Baltic. About the beginning of last month the Russian CAIN in the Bal►ic took up a position ueder a point called Pencula. Each wing of their tio. tills was Ranked by a rock. In this position they seemed to defy our power. Such a defiance could not of course be brooked by British seamen, and it was resolved to man our boats and send them in, to teach the Russians more respect. The boats of the Bellerophon, implacable, Melpomene, and Prometheus, were accordingly manned, and on the night of the 7th ult. proceeded wader the Co.. mind of Lieut. lltivsky to attack the enemy in their strong position. Observing oar approach, the • Russians poured a heavy fire from their flotilla and from the two rocks. Our gallant OMII3 try men, howeter, ad. vanced with their characteristic steadiness, disre garding the fire of the enemy, and not returning a shot until the boats were doge to the flotilla • they then opened upon them , gallantly boarde d the enemy sword in baud, and drove all before them. The flotilla consisted of eight gen.boats, each asoenting a 32 and 44-poeader, and 48 mets. Siz were brought out and one was sunk. There were besides twelve vessels under the protection of the Swills, laden with powder and provisions for the RUNSille army ; these were an dm ) sad * large ship was burnt. We lament to say, that Ueeteeliat Newkey, as premising an officer as any in ear service, was killed by a grape-abet after he had taken one thy gun-boats. Lieutenant Sterhog, el the Pro, rnetiseus, was to leverely wounded, that he died %wort after. Mr. Mountettry, a Midshiptsen, was killed. We had its all 17 killed, and 3? wounded', The toes of the Russians was usech greeter : they had 13 killed, a great number were drowsed, and weft seek pritoerrs„ of whoa SI were wouuded, FROM MR FRENCII PAPERS. Munrca, Juma 18.—When the Insurgents of the Tyrol saw the Austrian troops evacuate their Country, they sent a deputation to the Elmllan advanced posts, to implore mercy, and offer to deliver up the leaders of the insurrection.

This retire has destroyed the absurd conjectures of a sawn autnber of mil. contents, concerning pretended dangers towards the South. They are obliged to confess that the whole has been dreamt by them and their cwres. pendent!, since the King has brought bar k the troops who had followed him, and ts- hose presence in La Mancha and Estrerni , lura has been runtlered unnecessary by the flight of the rebels. MILAN, JULY 16.—A troop of robbers, who descended from the neighbouring mountains of the Tyrol, after having been dispersed by the garrisun of Vicenza, attempted to rally in the environs of ',only), and seize upon that little town ; but this project was only a source of shame to thew. The gendarmerie and the national guard beat then rom. pletely, and pursued them so nobly, and so far, that it is doubted 'whether they► will hen, crJrth rally, or make tbe least attempt again. GRAKTILLI4 .JULY 18..-We are the rnglish every day. A cutter was seen late'y near the islands of Chastity, by, the gen.boats, which chased her and drove her away.
