(lrlitmed) MULGRAVE. To die Riglit Hon. the Lurd Mays. The officers who brought this intelligence came to Falmouth in the Success frigate, and proceeded immediately to town. It has been long known that 'Madeira was the object of Sir SAMUE*44OOD'S Cl pedalo'', and that the Court of Lisbon ., had sent un order to that Colony, to place itoelf under the pro tection of a British force. The surrender, there fore, is in trust for the Queen of POZTUGAIL. We have received Paris papers to the 9th instant, from which we have made copious extracts. The Mold:ear contains another political article upon the present state of public atEars. The argument and speculation are chiefly confined to Portugal, and the recent Orders of Council, restricting the trade of Neutrals. On the first point, the Moniker con tends, that the emigration to the Brazils silt eventually prove beneficial to Fri.:.ce, and is not even, at the present moment, of any commercial advantage to England. With respect to our Orders in Council, in retaliation for the blockading system of BOUApARTE, it adopts an idea not new in this country, and contends that they are only playing into the hands of BONAPARTE, and seeming his game against British commerce. We lately stated as highly criminal, any pro ceeeding that tended to parelise the energies of the country, within which censure certainly were com prehended Meetings to petition for peace; but this argument rests entirely upon the sincerity of Mini sters, in their professions for peace. We cannot in deed conceive, in the present state of the world, any good reason that could influence them to carry on war, provided they could make peace, and there fore we have given them credit for their sincerity, and attributed the continuance of war to a disposi tion on the part of the enemy, not to be satisfied by any thing 'short or the utter destruction of this empire. The State Papers, as well domestic as foreign, lately published, appear however to Ogee made some change in public opinion upon this subject. The principal argument against these Petitions for Peace is, that all our attempts have hitherto proved abortive, that Mr. Fox tried, and could not effect his purpose, and that, in fact, BOXATARTS will not make peace upon terms com patible with the honour and safety of the imuntry. Now this latter wsrtion requires proof, and cannot he assumed as a principle, for we hare His Mc- Ateer% own Declaration, that Mr. Fox's negotia tion was broken off, not far &WA. list for Bar siaa.isterests, which latter thrnot now exist: and we have the assertion of Lord llowtcx, that if Mr. Fox had lived, he would have effected a peace upon honourable terms between the two countries . —As to the Declaration made by Boweesses, of a determination to wrest from us oar marl tine rights, particularly the right of search such declarations, under such circumstances, are to be construed with considerable indul gence. It will be recollected, that our own Government declared, that it would make no peace with Freuct, which should leave Belgium in the possession of that l'uwer, and yet the Treaty of Amiens recognised that change and many others. It will also be recollected, that Bom Amer threw out the same threat in the last war, aal yet no difficulty ou the groom, of our maritime rights occurred in concluding the Treaty of Amiens.

It is reported, on the , authority of private letters, that a senous misunderstanding lately took place at St. Petersburgh, between Count MIERYELDT, the Austrian Ambassador, and General SALARY. The dispute originated from the insertion of a paragraph in the Mmuteur, which the former conceived to re flect on the Emperor of AUSTRIA. General SA VARY defended the offensive article, and a duel was the consequence, in which General SALARY was killed on the first fire. The Atnerican Committee have determined upon meeting weekly in future, in order to deliberate upon the best course for those concerned in the American trade to pursue, until Ministers shall have really determined upon the question—whe ther we shall be at war or peace with the Voted States.

I was dissuaded from going to Memel, on account of the extrava gant pretensions of the French, of which they did not then know the particulars. We know them now officially, and they are indeed such as justify every apprehension that Prussia must soon be annihilated. Bonaparte demands the five for tresses of Stettin, Custrin, Glogau, Colbert', and Graudents—the maintenance of their garrisons, which are to consist of forty thousand French troops—annual payments of five millions of dollars, till the whole contribution of the coati try is made up—and bind, to the anion at of fifty millions of dollars, to be divided smog his offi cers, so that the utmost of the revynue that will he left the poor King, will be about gi millions of dollars, and in that situation it is totally im possible fir the country long to exist.
