THE BRITISH PRESS. LONDON, TUESDAY. Novuescs I. We yeeterday stated, that Nlinisters had sent off their Answer to the late Prow.sitioes from Edict, by a Kisses Messenger. Mr. SIO4W, the Ganes aim employed upon this mission. arrived at Dever so Saturday morning, and sailed in a Raga trace, foe Calais. about one o'clock. The retail which married him has returned, and the pimple wriert ha was very favourably received. Me ked ewe*. Alum permission to land. and to proceed to Peels' 'with his dispatches. The Caininaadaet at Oasis doited.ake master of the vessel, is case keeksold ear th ere again, on a similar es:maims, and it should be rough weather, set to seed same fee permission to laud, but to sail straight kips bar boor. How different is this behaviour to that 'whdidt Was sheen to the vessel which carried ever BMus IXoedt ; she was ordered away without Wading her Passengers, and her Captain infonaut. that no Move flap of truce from this country weak/ be al. lowed to come within gun.shot of their batteries, without being ired at. It is said that Mr. SMAW has orders to proceed to Erfurt, in care N A POLNON should nut have returned to his capital, which he probably has, as the Paris Papers mention that he was expected back againat the meeting of the Legislative Body, which, oe believe, was to take place the latter end of last mouth. We have received Spanish Papers to the 97th last. They announce the commencement of the debarkation of Sr DAVID BASSO'S army at Caren vs, early in the morniug of the it4th. As soon as the troops landed; they proceeded on their march. The latest intelligence from the theatre of war is of the 13th, at which date the Spasiards had taken a large magazine of corn, established by the French atMilagro, Wu. of Navarre, not fee frees. Tab. dela. This was done in the free of the enemy, but they offered no resistance ; not does there appear to be any foundation for the report of an actin), stated in the former Spnitirli Papers to ha►e been fought near Vittoria. Neither is it tree, that PAL ANON had got completely into the rear of the Frees+, and penetrated to Minces Valles. The French cavalry were stationed in that place, and the enemy were in possession of the road from it to Pompelems ; of course their retreat was open to the Pyrettees.— tieueral Btaea's head-quarters were at Bilboa ; but it is said that his advanced corps were at Er myra, in the rear of Vittoria and Durango. The head-quarters of CASTS NOS were at Tudcla, where he was daily expected, and the advance of his po sitions, it was 'opposed, would be the immediate consequeuce of his arrival. It is also stated, thet two large bodies of Spanish troops hail creased the Ebro, one in the neighbourhood of Caltahorni, and the other at Logreno, to cut elf the communication between the French divisious in Alzra and Navarre. T;ie French army was thus stationed on the If2ti, in a right liue, with its centre, at Pampeluna, its rear at Reams Valles, and its ran extending to wards the Ebro. Should CASTANOS more forward from Tudela, his advance must bring one general action, or the enemy must fall hack upon Pampa ' lune, the possession of which they will probably make an effort to retain. General Mooae, and hie army of eo,ooo men, :rosined at Lisbon on the 14th, but the first divi- sion was expected to set out the next day for Al meida. The Lisbon article says, " the greatest part are preparing to go by load fin- want qj trans ports." It adds, that Sir Jomw Moose is to have under him Generals poet sad BEEESIORD. that Lard CATHCART is to be Cointnander-in-Chief of the British Forces in Portugal, and that Sir CHARLES Corros is to return to England, to give evidence on the trial of General Datavairts. • Catalonia being at a great di►tance from Cortin; na, the ordinary channel of our coinmuuication with Spain, the accounts from that province are generally of an old date. There is no account c‘: any operation in that quarter, of a snore recent date than the JOth of Sept. on which day the French were attacked and routed between Beans sod Bar celona.—Reinforcements being much wanted in that quarter, the Spanish troops that were at Lis bon, and a strong corp. of British troops, are going there. The RUSSIAN AMBASSADOR at Madrid bad de manded his passport., in consequence of a recent but it was hoped that he would be dissuaded from Wail his intention into effect. Thew. we are, at present, and probably *hall long regalia, in ignorance of the principal objects of discussion or of deliberation at Erfurt, between ALMA:4IIKM and BON APARTL ; yet when we con sider the altered position of the Corsican Despot, and of the Russia. CZAR, compared with the re lative situations of each at their last interview, it requires no great sagacity to foretel, that the coo-. Serener. in Thuringia wilt bear no reoemblanee to those held on the Niemen, fifteen months ago.— At Tilsit. Nartitxox may be said to have appeared with all the splendour of revolutionary Majesty, preceded by terror, and accompanied by conquest. lie had humbled Austria in the preceding cam paign; and after completely crushing FREDERIC WI I LIAM, whose dominions he partly restored, and partly distributed among his newly-ereated German Kings, as Rome anciently parcelled ant theterritories of ANTIOCIVS, or of MITHRIDATES ; he terrified or subdued the mind of ALElSanrlt by the joint operation of fear, admiration, abd acknowledged superiority.

Already he had destined the Danish Navy f'or a principet pert in that greet enterprise, while preparations were made to carry into execution another still more gigantic project, the Invasion of India over land. It is, indeed, difficult to over-rate the power,. either real or admitted, of the Corsican Emperor, at this resplendent era of his career. Bet can he now impress ALICIA !RIDER with si milar emotions ? Car that Prince be ignorant that victory uo longer attends on him ? Has BONA PAVEL any mean* of concealing his defeats, his capitulations, his expulsion from so many provinces of Spain, Isis brother's flight, the evacnation of Portugal, the escape of ROKAIC A (born Funeu, and the critical position of his troops. driven into two or three mountainous provinces at the foot of the Pyrenees? Con he any longer menace to visit Pe tersburg'', at the head of two hundred thousand man; bewho w Mtn pelkd to ad mit OZWtTeacr reinforcemeats, destined for Spain, cannot reach that canary before the commencement of Novelw ber ? Such acts orsapremiacy and of superiority, which, at Tilsit, were 'quaky natural and becom ing in • conqueror, would, excite little alarm at Erfurt. Nor will the Cor.ician attempt to succeed by weapons that are no longer accommodated to the tine and the conjuncture. lie is too sagacious, too wise, and much too well advised, to try any ex cept more lenient measure:. Conciliation, nee ciations, peace, will be in his month, and in that of TALLaramtn. They probably both know, al- I l with • mama certainty, that whatever efforts France may be forced to make, in obedience to her tyrant, with a view ostensibly to maintain Jostra Boammars on the ideal throne of Spain and the Indies ; yd that this obscure and mean ad' enturev, who is kissing his mock decree: from mine un known village of Biscay or Alava, will be drives back int, (lemony, panned at the heels by rich e'', and contempt.

It generally believed at the Hague, that has received peremptory orders froto never to re-enter France. A mandate this Catholic King may, however, find to comply, however willing he may on the Spanish territory. Still it is apparent to us, and it is probably apparent to BONAPARTE himself, that the ce and reduction of Spain, which lie considered certain, only five months abut, is now not desperate.
