In a sursequent column will be found' the principal part of their contents. The conduct or the Gaswo SEIGNIOR, in his attempts to restore tranquillity t Constantinople, and in aid of the aufft.rers from the late disorders there, are highly honourable to hi 4 character. lie has invited the blussulincii to receive into their houses the odor. tunate persons left without asylum by the late fire, :chatevcr be the difference of their religion. This is to art in a manner worthy of a Prince. The Turks and Itiwiaus ave making every effort, re. spuctively, to carry on the war ; and the latter mere to at truipt the passage of the Danube, near to Its mouth. 'There are several articles in these fa . pers, of some interest. Beside the articles we have given, these Papers contain the rolls:ming intelligence : —Three grand military roads have been constructed from •the French frontiers to the interior of Spain ; one by Tolosa, fampelona, and Saragoza, to the army of Arragon ; the second by Vittoria, Burgos, Val. ladoliJ, and Salamanca, to the army of Portugal ; and the third by Lerma, Arunda, and Somossierra, to Madrid. In Toulon a ship of 120 guns bas lately been . launched ; it is called the Wagrons.' An Imperial decree has been published, bearing OW St. Cloud, the 21st of June, by which it is enacted, that the Colonial commodities attached ivy virtee of the decree of the 30th of last January, in the former Dutch places now incorporated with the French Empire, are to be returned to the proprietors, on paying 50 per cent. on the value lb, rent. The splendid interment of the Duke of Mow. Teuet.r.o, has taken place in the church of St.. Ge nevieve, at Paris.l I J.JIEPII DE Mont:unman, the celebrated invert, tor of ire balloons, died on the 26th of June, at the advanced age of 70. L4'T night two mails arrived from Lisbon, by which we have received Papers to the sth instant, Th,ingh no general action has taken place, the contents of the Portuguese Journals possess considerable interest. JUNOT appeared before Ciudad itodrigo on the 19th ultimo, with 10.00 Q men, and Lotsox having teamed the Agueda with a divis:•in, the fortress became , invested both on the Spanish side and the Portu guese side. It continued to he bombarded up to the .29th by heavy battering cannon. The place is gal. land) , defended by the Spanish garrison, but from the great force employed against it, we are afraid it must surretpler, unless the enemy be compelled to raise the siege by our army. A movement for that object may perhaps bring on a battle, which in. deed, according to the letters from Lisbon., we may expect soon to hear of. It is stated in one letter that Lord WEI.LINGTON was at Lisbon on the 4th. The force under his command is corn. puttli, in these papers, at 36,000 British, and 29.009 Portuguese. Marshal ButEst , otto was also on the frontiers. Tut distribution of the French armies ill Spain WIC U fullOwS :—With AIASIESAI 85,000, COD. sisting of NET'S division, 44900; of 4 25,000; and REIMER'S, 16,00 Q; togetheu with, 13,000 which M4sste* brought with him from France.

It is also as lieml that a fresh 'reinforcement of opined , o f. 24,000 men bas arrivis4 from F ance, which will snake tho French force in Spain *early 200,000 men. I'WS 'ST AT MAN MAJOR AItRITRO . NA arrived in town on Sater. day, with dispatches from the Commendable. Chief at Cadiz. He came home in the Delight, Lord BALM/Nit, which arrived at Parttime:mit on Friday night, from that , city, after a passage of 13 days. At the time of the departure of the Delight, every thing was quiet at Cadiz. The Temerairc, Tennant, Achille, Ea: Zealous, 'Atlas, and Ellakci, were lying in the Bay. It ap pears from the accounts brought by this conveyance, that a little before day-light on the 15th last, an attack, as made by a strong French force on the advanced battery of the Spanish and English troops ; and, after an obstinate resistance, it was taken. It remained in possession of the enc. my only about two hours, when it was gallantly retaken. This affair cost the lives of several on both sides. With this exception, the French had remained inactive. They have thrown up a great number of batteries, and have estehlished them. tithes in Fort Louis. A French spy was arrest. ed at Cadiz on the ?3t}: ho was instantly blind. folded, pinioned, and safely lodged in the Castle of St. Sebastian, where he was eapccte4 soon tot suffer death. Cadiz is abundantly supplied with provisions, and the communication is open with almost every part of the country. Frequently 100 boats ere seen coming in at once, with provisions from dif. ferent parts of the coast. The Codes are post. tively to assemble in August. The greater part of the Members were already at Cadiz, and they continued to coMe in daily, from different parts of the country. Another set of New York Papers td the 15th ult. has been received. They bring an account of the arrival at Baltintore of some Deputies from the Caraccas, with the view of forming commercial arrangements, and procuring from the Govern. went of the United States au acknowledgement of the independence of that part of Spanisli America which has first determined to dissolve the political connection between the Colonies and the Mother Country. These Papers contain a report of the recal of Mr. Pfecemay from this country: The arrival of the John Adams is not mentioned. LErrEsts hare reached us from Itavannah, to the recent date of the 3d of June. The settlement was still faithful to the parent State. The import duties there had been thus arranged :—On articles of luxury, 34 per cent.; on those of necessity, 15 per cent. ; on flour, the old duty of 31 dul. tars; lumber, free; Spanish goods in Spanish vessels, free. ,THE SECRET SECRET scrc►ce which Sir RICHARD STHA• CHAN is going upon, has been explicitly stated, in some of the Papers, to be the Mauritius. Sir RI CHARD, we believe, will take very few ships with him from this country. Frigates and stoops will be principally employed, and they will proceed to the Cape of Good Hope as fast as they can be got ready. The elfricaine and Nisus have lately sailed ; the ilamadryad, Phcebe, Racehorse, and Acta)", will proceed shortly. The 7th and Bth Regiments, which are at Halifax, and three of the Regitneeiti at the Cape, are the troops to be employed. The Gazette of Saturday contains dispatches from Adthiral DRUTi,Y ) detailing the particularsof the advantages gained over the pirates in the Per- 71 sian Gulph, by Captain WAtmwascuz, of the CIIIVVONNE frigate, aided by a detachment of troops under Lieutenant Colonel SMITU. THE Morning Post of this day, has the follow. ing article :--. • " We take this opportunity to contradict the paragraph which appeared in this. and all the other papers, statsug that the Captains of the Corps to *bleb Major DODD Wimp, had met and :ignetl a requisition to the Siaster.Gerseral of the Ordnance to di:peiue with the services of that Officer s—We understand that no such meeting took place. Weals° feel that it is but justice to notice another paruarsqth which appeared on the 21th ult. and conveyed an idea, that the letter mention ed on the trial of WRIGHT and others, proved under Major l)oou's hand, that lie had betrayed tie confidence of his Royal MiKhness the Duke of Kent. We lenruthat no such letter had been written, much less given in evidence." We pointed out, at the time, the injustice done to Major. Dunn, as well as the folly of the pre. sumption against the O f ficers of the Artillery; a nd we soon had information that the paragraph alluded to was erroneous. We are glad that The' Morning Postbag discovered its error, and has manliness enough to acknowledge it. As to the several insinuations and assertions re: specting Major pone, arising out of the Ur. HOLSTESEILIS trials, they have been of the most unfounded kind ; and se are happy to see a little justice is at length to be done in this much mis. represented case. •WE arc reluctantly compelled to postpone our observations on that interesting document, Site Annual Epistle of the Socztr of FAIENDI, toollofre W. The Semiramis frigate has arrived at Plymouth, froo4l4abon, which place she left on the ist inst.

The Royal Party afterwards returned to the palace. The Duke of AND has experienced considerable inconvenience, as well as pain, from the late attack, having been deprived of the use of his hands till last Thtirsday, when'he was able to feed himself. His Royal Highness's apartments in St. James's Palace, are to have material altera tions made in them, previous to his return into them. The Duke of Sussex, and others of the Royal Family, are expected to view the launch of the Itoal Charlotte, tomorrow, at Deptford. • Among the presents sent by the Queen, to the King of Persia, is a large collection of modern upholstery and cabinet goods. JCPTEgy, the seaman, was on the 6th ult. at Wanham, State of New England. The public cariosity, had been so strongly excited with re., spent to him, that he was visited by vast numbers, and found so ample a provision in their gene iosity, as to be relieved from the necessty of ht. bearing for his subsistence. It is a singular fact, theta!l the thirty messen gers belonging to the three Secretaries of State's Offices, and who *ere chiefly employed in convey, ing dispatches to Foreign Courts, are at this mo. went at home. • LOUIS BONAPARTE, it is said, intends to re. linquish all regal state, and live in respectable re: tirement, like his Brother LIMIER. The people of Holland regret his departure. The Gault* of Saturday has announced the failure of two Country Banks. The Commercial Treaty with the PRICE ReceNT of Portugal, though finally concluded, has not yet been pat/fished.
