The Ministers of Joseph are extremely pleased with the intelligence, that Napoleon has called to Prince, Kellerman, tote Governor of St. Andero, and others; awl say that Joseph is named Genera lissimo of the French troops io Spain, and Beßeard his Mujor-General. But, at the same time, they are disgusted by Manx* having been arrested at Paris by order of Bonaparte (this is positively as sated), who has likewise ordered Urquijo to appear there. The reason appears to be the publication made by the Spanish Governineur, from various intercepted letters; to which are added other charges relative to the managing and employing of the public purse. 'ihe point which extremely pains Bonaparte is, the seeing himself obliged to send as much money to Spain as he formerly drew from it, and much more than he can again reckon upon drainiwg from it. _ isov, y.

In oar Paper of the 19th last, we g•re, az. CLUPIVELY, an account of as attack made by the Donegal ■nd Revenge of the line, and the Diana and itiiobe frigates, upon two French frigates of 44 guns each, the Amason and E/i:et, part of the Havre squadron, which they drove on shore be tween the batteries of La Hogue and Tatihou. upon the French coast. It has been since understood, and so stated in the Paris papers, that all our at• tempts to destroy the two frigates had proved in effectual, and, the enemy had succeeded in getting them oft.—We, however, now understand that the Eli:ee has beers attacked by the boats of she Diana, under the batteries of 'Fatihou, which succeeded in setting her on lire, and completely destroying her, without the loss of a man. We have more than once held up to public con tempt and reprobation the odious and disgusting attempts, tuade by sone of the Minsterial Journals, to excite a prejudice and suspicion against the Prince of %tuts, with a view to reconcile the Country to Mr. Peacevat's plan for loading his Royal Highness. es Regent, with chains and fet ters.—.. Is it (-ay. The Courier of last night) no ground of suspicion, that we see Sir FRANCIS Belt on% for the first time in his life, standing forth an every-day debater, starting up at the first opportunity to advocate the cause of the Regent in the most vehement manner ?"—Again— , . Is it no ground of suspicion, that we find The Weekly Itegister, seditious and revolutionary to excess in its general conduct, also advocating the cause of the Regent with unremitting zeal ?"—., The restraint" (says the same paper in the same article) " against making Peers, experience has rendered much more necessary than it was in 1789. A few years only have pawed over our beads since Sir CERISTOENER HAWILINS and ALEXANDER DAVISON found themselves in most awkward scrapes respecting the election of Menthers of Par liament. Between them it appeared they hail en gaged to influence the return of about 20 Members. Report said, and we believe truly, that 411, al.ese Members were to Inure rotated a perry. witlstothera, in favour of the friends or the Prince orlfi l iest,_ . #loo give his Royal Highnes s au influence in - Pauli!. ment. If that report was true, as we believe: it was, is it not probable. nay alinnat certain, that the same men who advised such prneeedino, would.adviee his Royal flighntsc as Regeta, to create'. large batch of Peers for the same purpose? flowerer great she reliance that may be placed on the loyalty and patriotism of his Royal Highness, it is insufficient to guard the Nation against the designs of the evil Conesellure by wham it is feared he would,e. Regent, be surrounded. When it is eon aidered that some of the Opposition Leaders seem to think the Km should be set aside; that the gang of Buitnirr. CORSETT. and Co. seem to expect touiethiNg is their way from an unlimited ' Regent; and that the recent attempt to establish a squad in the House of Commons for the support . of the Parsec's friends. renders restraint against making Peers more necessary :when all these new facts are consideted, in addition to the general reasonings of 1789, we agree that the ° circuity staoces Aare chengett, but the change is isstritvosi of the necessity of restrictions."—Such is the' angusge of a Print professing to state the - soar timenta of Ministers upon this 'important subjeCe! —We have quoted the words. because it must appear altnost incredible that any writer should be so destitute of regard for himiW, or respect for the rank and person of the Heir Apparent, as to use such language !—The Paper alluded to is in the habit of tepresenting Sir Famous HURONS? and others, whom it has lea g ued with his Royal Highness, as men of revolutionary principles, the fomenters of anarchy, and little short of traitors.— Combining, therefore, this circumstance with the insinuations thrown out in the above passe rs , the attack thus made appears to US one of the most vile and audacious that ever came from the pen of the ipost desperate libeller!—" These new facts." says the Writer in the Courier.
