Their favouring Theatres are those of the Emperor and Empress, the Opera, and Theatre de Montansier.—Bois de Boulogne, and Peng!. lon d' finnover, are not so much visited by them, as Li ds Chasimicre, and Frascati.. The Restaurateurs Bua sillier, and Neuter, and the coffee-houses of Foy and Chartres, are the usual places of rendezvous. The Emperor has ordered the Prelea of Police to allow them the greatest possible /i/artti, when they once have printed that they are neither British sub ?.Rs nor British agents. They obtain cards of hos pitality, which, when they present them once a we ik, at the Prefeanre, 'they may he sure, if their irreproaehnblte, ro remain unmolested. At the diplomatic audience, to-morrow, it is supposed that the number of foreigners, who are to be pre sented to the Emperor. will amount to near one hundred. Upwards of 130 have requested that honour ; but many. on. account of their inrior rank, have, according to the estaidishcd Imperial court etiquette. barn refused ad.nittance to the Emperor's presence. The Emperor has commanded twelve millions (500,0001.) worth of diamond rings, necklaces, snuff-boxes, &c. intended to be distributed by his Majesty to foreign Princes and noblemen on the day of his coronation. All the jewellers in the Rue St. Honore, on the Quay lYOrfenre, and in the Palais Royal, are busily employed in executing these commands. Her Imperial Highness Princess Louis is nearly recovered from her iteetniehor:nt. Her Majesty the Empress has, with maternal tenderness, graci ously visited her daughter once in the day, during her laying-in.

(Courier desSpectacles4 - _ Further Particulars of the Fever at Elibidier sa be found la the 1..t4 THE BRITISH PRESS. LONDON, WEDNESDAY, NovLainsk 7. A letter from a Gentleman in a high and respect able situation at I.ishon, states, " that the insttr reCtion near Bilboa was not the momentary resistance to any new ads of oppression on the part of the Spanish Government, but the result of a deep laid plan to effeCt a revolution in Spain, similar to that in France. There, as every where else upon the Continent, are numerous, unprincipled, and ambi tious men, who, seeing the success of French rebels, and encouraged by the example of the fortunate Corsican, believe themselves destined to be the BON APARTES of their respeCtive countries, to usurp the thrones of their Sovereigns, and to support, like him, their usurpations, by accomplices, by gaols, racks, and se. (folds. An Admiral and a Ge neral G—, ate reported to be the nominat chiefs of the li:eta of the B.scayans. It was meditated so long ago es when Ikea- IEN BONAP ANTE was Ambas. sailor in Spain, in ISO t, who then procured for the firmer the command of the fleet at Cadiz. the peace with England, which soon followed that be tween France and Spain with Portugal, caused it to be laid aside until a more convenient season. The Cann of Madrid was well aware of a conspiracy against it, supported by France. This was one of the principal causes of the many pecuniary and pnli tint! racriflces it has made to continue its neutrality. Thor would not, however. have prevented the !Int-swots in Spain from already sharing the destiny of those in France. had not a family disagreement among the Boa AAAAA ts procured them a respite. It is reported that the Spanish Government are in possession of the whole plan for effeCling a revolu tion, and a change of dynasty in Spain as well as in Naples, and that LIMIER Bow 04YAkTII is destined to the throne of the former, and Jose, It BON aaaaa to that of the latter kingdom. The Spanish conspi. rators had accredited agents at Paris, whom the Spanish Ambassador there, Admiral Ca AVIN A, has demanded to have delivered op, bat, who, watwith standing the rijra-ts and orgrehts of the French Police, have note/4 disappeared. Among the papers in the pwer of the Court of Madrid, is said, to be a letter tram TALLEY RA ND to the rebels. telling them, that for tererai maw's:, the Emperor of the Fatale H desires them to postpoue their efforts for the of their hied' until a conquest of, or a peace with, Great Britain: In Portugal and in Spain it is One rally believed that BONAP A R CE meditates an over throw of all thrones occupied by Bou axioms, and to give them to his brothers and other relatives. The appointments of the Military Ambassadors, Boon- NON V11.1.E and I....sties, to the Courts of Madrid and Lisbon, is thought not to he unconneaci with this conspiracy. Copies of the discovered papers are re ported to have been sent to Naples, Vienna, and St. Pi:tersburgh." We received, last night, we believe exchttivel ,, , some more of the small Paris Papers up to the Beth. They contain a variety of particulars respelling the ensuing Coronation of the Corsica Upstart. The expences upon the occasion are enormous, particu larly those incurred by presents to his visitors, among whom we find many new names. It is curious to see these petty Princes flattered by gifts paid for by the plunder of their native countries, or the sale of their inheritance. The Gazette of last night, as we anticipated, con tains an order by His MAJESTY in Council, for pr.:). toguing the Parliament from the e7th instant, to the 3d of January, 1805 ; and Desiring that the Lotto Ctta,ct:u.os of Great Britain shall cause a commission to be prepared for that purpose. '1 In the month of January last, a large French schooner sailed from Rangoon, in the East Indies, bound to France, having on board a valuable cargo of bale goods, that had been landed there from a ship tinder Danish colours, which vessel had sailed again with a cargo of rice for Madras. The schoo ner was to touch at the Isle of France for her fiord orders. Another French vessel was tilting out there to carry a cargo of the same kind to France, which, it was understood, the Danish ship would in like manner bring from Madras under Danish colour:, as tyon as she could dispose of her rice at that Presidency. We learn, that the particulars of this tt .t:Tic and condn.i of neutr.tl vessels bad been fully dLclosed to the Governor General in India, who, no doubt, has by this time token such measures as will effec- tually prevent a repetition of this illicit tr-de. Accounts from Bombay state, that a violent gain of wind had been experimced to the N'irthward of that Presidency, iu which, we are sorry to learn, several boats were lost, amongst which, one horn Baroach, bound to Bombay, having on board Mr. Joitm Tuasaa, of the Gazette Office, with a crew and passengers, amountisz to upwards of one hun dred people. Several of the packets. containing letters sent by this conr..yAnce, had beam ..vasited on shore, and forwarded agreeably to their dirations. Previous to the last China fleet leaving Canton, a Spanish frigate had arrived there from Manilla with a very considerable quantity of specie on board, be longing to the Spanish government. The Captain stated, that a vet y valuable Spanish galleon was to sail from Manilla in February or March last for China. The iimds, f',.s ICS Y, from Dantvic, it arrived in the Humber ; she was brought to on the 24 inst. about 15 leagues from Flarnbarough Head, by a French privateer, mounting 12 guns, supposed to he commanded by BL AC K 34 AK. The Chadott., ERICK, from Bristol for Einbden, is on shore near Lymington. The George,ll,lt Et 4, from Dantaic fur Lintl has foundered at sea. We tear that the gales of wind, which have pre vailed for the lar. tive days, have done much damage upon our coast, particularly upon the Eastetn part of it. Our letters fr.im and Folkston state, that several vessels have been driven on shore—and we apprehend that considerable injury will be found to have been done. between Yarmouth and Leith. Among the claims to Peerages espeMed to he made to Parliament, in the coarse of the nest Ses sion, will be those of Mr. JOHNSTON to the Barony of Annalkdale ; of Sr Cam. Bishop to the Barony of Zouch ; and of Ensign BOOTH, of the sith Re- giment, to the 13aneny of Dalemere. General Cut:Mulct., we are concerned state, on Wednesday last letF Brighton, for medical ad. vice, under very severe indisposition. So impaired were his intelleas by the disorder, that he had lost all recollcaion of his brother, when he attended at Brighton, to see him. General LENSOT, we understand, has been ap pointed to the command of the district, during Ge noa' Caw ac ILL'. indisposition. . . Lust Thursday evening a French logger was ob served very near in shore off Brighton, when the battery nuns (tor the more effeCtually manning of which, (,en. Listens. ordered a detachment of the Artillery from the barrack.) were cpened upon her, which occasioned her to sheer off, and without hay ing made any capture. it Gtonoe Real noto arrived on the With ult. at Hanover; and, atter a lung interview with Marshal kiesttaoolrc. %Vas sent under a Strong escort to Paris. The Senate of Hamburgh have tnanitested the utmost regret at the violation committed upon their territories, and have taken every step which it was in their power to take, to obtain Sir GEOR G E'S release. They sent Marshal R to..tersoorre, who informed them, that it was out of his power to libe rate him, the orders for his arrest having been trans mitted from Paris. The Gazette of last night contains an Order of Council, continuing a former Order, permitting the importation, for three months, horn the rich i ist. of the various kials of provisions mentioned in the said Order, duty free, either in British ships, or ships belonging to persons of any state in amity sc ith His Maus TT, without payment of any duty: pro. viJed a due entry be made of all such articles, with the proper OAcers of the Customs, in :he port where the same shall lie imported. 4 0 ` . 24ST nOURN Tifr Ann The Theatre at East-Bourn closed on Friday last after Al very successful campaign.
