REPORTED cApTintt OF AN AMERICAN FRIGATE, AND LOSS OF ANOTHER. 4 letter from Portsmouth, received Ibis day, states, that Captain. &Lis, of the Spitfire sloop of ivar i had infOrmed, the prize-piaster of an Ame rican schoonee detaid'ed 4 the Nemesis, that the American frigate Catstitution had been taken .by the Poictiers, and that. the Constellation had been driven on shore, and lost. We shall be most happy to be enabled to con firm this statement, : but no intelligence of any such events has reached the Admiralty. Another American vessel, the Print, has been brought into Plymouth. 'She left Boston the 3d ult.: at which time, though the election for Presi dent had not closed, there was supposed to be no doubt of the majority being in favour of MADISON. She confirms the return to port of the President and Congress frigates, which were refitting with all expedition. The Greenock Advertiger of Feb. 1, announces that letters had been received from Halifax to,the ;`, , lth ult. one of which, in a postscript, states the re-election of Mr. MnorsoN, and adds a conjec ture, that, on the public annunciation of thil event, new proposals of peace would be made to Great Britain. Corunna Papers to the 14th ult. reached town this morning.; They contain very little in addition to what is furnished loj the Lisbon JOurnals, and nothing further as to the report of Sot4,ir being about to return; to France with 4) or 60,t)00 men. The. French, k is . stated, were falling hack Non Valladolid,' preserving the-line of the Douro. Some of the accounts from Madrid state, that that city was expected shortly, to be evacuate 4 ; add, it is said, that's Letter from J6Sr,Pft to his Brother had been intercepted, stating, that if any troops were withdrawn fx.oni Spain, he should not even be able to maintain hinuell on, the Ebro, hut must return to 'France, Lisbon Papers, to the 27th ult. reathed`town last night. They mention a report, which, if it could be relied upon, would be of great import ance, namely, that Souvr had been ordered to re turn co France with 40,000, of ov.ording to other accounts, with 60,009 men. If this.were the fact, active operations, on'the part of the French Army in the Peninsula, must of course cease, and they would scarcely be able to main tain a defensive system behind the Ebro. Ever since the destruction of the French army in Rus sia, we have thought it highly probable that Bun- NABARTEIVOttid find himself compelled to with draw his troops from the Peninsula, in order to make a show of something like an army. We are aware, however, that this step would be a con fession of weakuess.which be would not resort to, except in the last extremity. Whether the ru mour alluded to is founded in fact, we arc unable at present to ascertain, The Marquis of WI: LL I NGTON arrived at Abran tes 09 the 22d ult. and Was expected at the head quarters at Freynada on the 24th. Some German and Dutch Papers to the 2.lth tilt. arrived on Saturday afternoon. A new call, it appears, is intended to ben:mac byßuottArmere on his Vassal Princes in Germany, not only to fur isish fresh contingents to be again sacrificed to his ambition, but still More, to maintain their:contin gents when actually employed in 11i3 service. How far, however, he Way pOil4liS the jeans of com pslling lieseexactions,depends upon cireumstrinces which it is no longer in his power to earitrol.— We 'are happy to observe, that Russia is mak ing the greatest exertions to levy a very con siderable force, and to I)%e it in a man. tier the best adapted to rescue Europe from the thraldom in which it has been held by the merciless tyranny of DOOKAPARTE. The people of, Prussia and of Germany, are now called upim by the voice of a deliverer to lend a helping hand to the breaking of their own chains,—let them only answer the call, and make a single effort, and the tyranny which has bowed them to earth will vanish like the baseless fabric of a vision: We rejolee to' learn also, that there is a great probability of Denmark throwing off th s e yoke of France ; propositions are understood to have been made to the Danish Court by the Russian and Swedish Ambassadors, which it was supposed wonicl 'induce then. Danish Govertiment.to consult ant less the interest of Denmark than that of the cOIIirI2OIIC4ONC of Europe, by emancipating itself from the trammels of what is called the Conti. It ,zittal system.

ROMAN CATHOLIC LOAM Tuesday a numerous Meeting of the Roman Catholic Board was held in Capel-street, Mr. Ran dal M' Donnell, in the .Chair. , The first thing that occupied the attention of the Meeting was, a letter which Mr. Hay bad lately received from Mr. Jermingham, one of the persons nominated to act as Secretary to the Ro man Catholics of England, touching: the general question of emancipation. Ibis letter seemed to intimate sonic intention on the part of the English Roman Catholics to accept of terns of a qualified nature from Ministers, and to put forth a snggestion that it would he for the advantage of the general cause to suffer the English Roman Catholic Petition to be di bussed before the Irish. Upon both features of the letter much interesting discussion took. place, and the result was the adoption of the following 'Resolution " Resolved,—That on reading Mr. Jerming,•- bant's letter to Mr Hay, we do unanimously agree, that . We have no communication whatever to mike to Mr. Jermiugham on the subject of that letter." , TAAVFE V.
