The Houses of Lords and Commons yesterday presented • very fall attendance. and the place for the accommodation of strangers was uncommonly crowded in both. The lobbies and passages also overflowed with visitors, and much interest ap. peered to have bee• excited by the business of the day. In the House of Lords their Royal Highnesses the Dukes of Cl.sasect, Kett?. end Susscl, sat upon the Opposition Bench. The following Bulletin was yesterday sheen at St. James's Palace :--. 0 Wisdom Castle, Dec. 13. "Hie Msiarty has had but little sleep. and is much the same as he was yesterdsy." (Nita a. awal.) The Howdrei, an American vessel. is arrived st Portsmouth. from the Tagus, which she left on the Mich. The letters by het state. that no battle had takeii place: but hl ASSIN A had seat more troops across the Zezere. to Puohete. His rear guard had fallen back, and our advanced guard bad taken the ground it had quitted. Our head.qusrters were still At Cartazo, and MIMEO at Santarem. • But the Supercargo of the Howard, who is arrived in London, says, that " a few hours previous to her sailing., a report reached the Ituererd, chat the Re -1 rimy had received an express frant the army. an nouncing that the French had begun their retreat from Santarem." The Doke of Montrose packet is arrived from the Brazils: she brings no ner<•e of importance from thence ; bat it appears that Admiral Os Cotracv had received dispatches at Rio Janeiro, by t►e Misletee schooner, front the Plata, on which he immediately sailed for that place in the Foadroyant, and orders were even for all the ships of war on the station to pi-octet' fur the sante destination. The departure of the Commander in Chief, and the force under his command, is attributed to great coatrautions which had taken place at Buenos Ayres and the neighbouring provinces. General MANUILL DE PADILLA came pssesn.q. r in the packet, and is charged with dispatches for our Government from the Junta which was formed at ' Buenos Ayres in May last. It appears that Gencrel Lyn 1LE9.5 had been made a prisoner, and was tried by the said Junta, and had been found guilty of corresponding with the French ; in Consequence of which; he and Ave others were sentenced to be shot, which ire* car, ied lots otrectllidnN w, lieplembee last. the Spaiti , th ship Lomita, AM; MAIL, from thot Canaries and St. Catharines to Buenos Ayres, put into Rio Janeiro 13th of October, in consequence of the blockade of Muich.

We have inserted some extracts from the Dutch Papers, but they contain nothing of political importance. An article from Amsferdsin mentions the burni ig of a consi derahie quantity of English goods in that capital, in conformity with the system of conflagration este bliahed by N•POLSON. The letters are in the same desponding tone that all private cointrintrications from that country have lately been ; 01%4 with melancholy accounts of national and individual distress, both ef which have augmented in a degree beyond all former ex ample. They state that the number of paurrs in rach district is eticreased tenfold within the last is months. the principal cause of which is said to he the reduction of the interest of the funds to one-third of their former amount. This, with the profits of the fisheries, and the limited trade which ilulland latrly ei:yoyed, constituted the chief support of the mass of its popnlation. The &mo nist t of one of thise.souices. and the destructitm of the tan others, have produced. as might natu rally have been expected. severe and extrusive &s -tress.
