The Dutch and French troops were, at that date, on their marsh from Holstein for Spain.

II APART, have notouly atopt the circulation of Eng lish seiippers ou the Continent, but have also ex cluded The Viewna Casette from the north of Ger many. Tbe offense which has brought down this punishment upon The ViCalid Court Gazette, is the publication, which appeared in it, of the disasters of the French in ✓pain and Portugal. It also appears that all the Letters and Papers from Vienna were stopped at the Psist Office of Hamburg)] on the 27th last. The Norattear may boast the good understand ing that prevails between France and Austria, but its assertions can have little weight against such proofs of jealousy amid apprehension. But BONAPARTL will not stop litre in his efforts to bury the Conti nent in darkness and delusion. The man also dared to propose to a British Minister to put down the Press in the Briti_.h dominions, will not be very moderate in his demands upon Austria.

A report prevail' yesterday that the Emperor of Amman had declared war against France, and that BomarAare., upon receiving the intelligcnce, had soddenly returned to Perla. We are inclined to think that the proceeding oaten against TA* ratans Court Gaulle, arid the stoppoi4r all the letter* and papers from Vienna, at the Post-office of Hanttrurgh, on the sytb 1414 as stated in the Ger man papers, received yesterday, *re the only lowa dation for this report. Had Austria determined upon this step, she would probably hare vlited for the more convenient season. when NarOutot, and his reinforcements had reached Spain. • We lament to say, that numerous and serious impediments, of various kinds, have arisen to the speedy and efficacious paarage or march of 011 W troops across Spain, both from Lisbon and from Coronae. To the Coareatioltaf Vint, Wheeeer shall Int ultimately found adpable, as the author of that unfortuuate and partitions treaty, we must impute the original necessity for ever sending an army aspen hundred Wien, when they might have been transported, with equal facility and celerity. round to Tarragona, or to St. Andero, by sea. But this primary and moat essential object was sacri ficed, in order to send tie fist and second division of JUNOT'S forces to Rochelle sod to Quiberon.— To the. ignorance, or to the injodicous selection made by Ministers of Corunna, in preference to St. Ander°, fur the landing of Sir Davin BAlllie troops, are equally to be charged the dehr, as well as all the other evils and inconvenieames inevi table in the progress of that body of our men, through some of the most impracticable provinces of Spain. We have already alluded, some days ago, to the difficulty, or impossibility, of fur nishing such provisions to the British , soldier, as he has been accustomed to receive; and on which he has been habituated to subsist.— No endeavours nor exertions, on the part of the Junta of °albeit, Leon, or Old Castile, through which portions of the kingdom Sir DAVID BA tao's march from Coronas or Benin:as, to Burgos, must principally lie, can remove or surmonat the natural and inherent deficiencies of the sal and country.— Not only beef and mutton are did ienk to procure, the quality of the meat itself is neither nourishing nor succulent. In fact, the Gallician or Castilian soldier rarely tastes of that kind of food ; he under goes privations to- which our troops are wholly un accustomed. Bread, of very inferior quality, gene rally mixed with meal made of chesnub, salt cod, or other dried fish, onions, with goat's flesh or kid occasionally ; these are the aliments on which a Spaniard subsists, tights, and supports every fa tigue or hardship. The staility of some provinces of Spain, the want of encouragement to industry on the part of the ancient government, and the natu ral disinclination to labour or severe bodily toil, among the inhabitants of the two Castile, in parti cular, these causes produce a degree of scarcity throughout Spain, which we, accustomed to plenty and profusion, should denominate almost famine. The want of vegetables is another evil ; nor is it re medied by the abundance of fruits, particularly grapes, to the immoderate use of which, in Portu gal, may be greatly attributed the diseases, espe cially dysenteries, with which our troops at pre sent are so mash allticted. Three thoolaial nine hundred men were confined in the hospitals of Lis bon, by the most recent advieet. Many other subordinate, but very essential arti cles, towards the supply, or the support of as new, must be either altogether resigned, o r 'they can only be procured in very inadequate quantities.— Isleither beer nor spirituous liquors are to be had, except by those who can afford to carry them from the coast. Even water, however strange or incredi ble it may seem to relate, is not to be always found in traversing Spain; a country less intersected by rivers, and less watered by streams or rivulets, in proportion to its surface, than any other country of Europe. Wike is, indeed, procurable, in almost every either ; and frequently ofa levees ea well all wholesonto quality. But it is not always found to agree with foreigners. The cavalry sent from this country will have difficulties and inaniveniencies to encounter, even . more formidable than the foot soldier. The hay and straw are both of very infe rior description, and far less nutritive than ours. Oats are grown in so small quantity, as not to be generally found. In the war of the succession, under 'Queen ANNE, the English ca valry suffered exceedingly from thele circum stances. Government, we are assured, have it in contemplation to send out supplies of beef from Ireland, and °rows, as well as hay, from this coun try, for the supply of our troops. Another very essential deficiency, mentioned in the last dis patches from Corunna, is that of norses or mules, to convey the artillery, ammunition, and baggage. So inadequate is, or was, the supply furnished for these indispeuilale purposes, that the march and advance of BAIRD'S turps will be, we liar. exceed ingly impeded and retarded by the circumstance. Such are some of the leading defi'ciencics inevitably to be encountered iu the march from (Whew, and from Portuesl, to Old Castile.
