This event has occasioned great joy throngh all . Spain, and particularly, among the populace in Madrid, who have celebrated it with 'great rejoicings. CH.Tant. We last night received Dutch Papers to the 27th ult. from which we have made several Extracts. We recommend to particular notice, the Address of the Legislative cody assembled at Utrecht'on tbe P,4th ult. and the Answer of the ,KING of Hot.- LA NM. In the former, are these expressions, so incon. sir.rent with the usual by 1c of the dependents of France. - " May Providence . give us PEACU, so necessary for the well being and. tranquillity of mankind, and of this Country in particular ; then shall we, under the glorious sway of your Majesty, see those bright days return, which a thick Cloud has overcast for so many years I". The answer. of Lows speaks still plainer langtagc. " r shall always account it a satisfadion to make you participators in the little GOOD which can be accomplished, or rather, in shunning the EVILS which limy be avoided ; for in difficult circumstances the hater mode of expression is more becoming than theforyter."—Atid again, . You Will see that notwithstanding the Peace upon, the eutinent, out situation is yet ExTitumE6c otrrlcutir, but. still we may finally hope, that `by -613N mut. PeAce we may reach the end (g - OUR NIISE RIES." Wv. have inserted further Extraas from the Ame ries+) Paprs. It appears that when the President's Message was referred to Selo& Cornmittees,.some r'..,eicussinn .an) se on a Motion of Mr. Quivalr, of Massaeliussetts„ tbr referring the affair of the ,Chesepeake to a Separate Committee, instead of being iecluded in the general Inquiry relatiire tit " Aggres - sions corninitted within the American Ports and Waters by Foreign Armcd Vessels, fize." Some ex pressions were used in the course of the discussion, tending to criminate Cominodore BARRON for not `offering more efreaual resistance; but, upon the whole, ,very littla is to be gathered from this debate. The Papers contain two Documents, which are referred to in Mr. JEFFERSON's "ilessage.,: . The first . loan Order of the 'Spanish Government issued at Artmluez, leb. to, 1807, relative to the Trade of 'Neutrals./ This Paper is couched in language very injurious to, England, and concludes ,with adopting the French Decree of the 21st November, i 806.. There appears, , however, some obscurity, perhaps only 'in the translation. The ordingiCe - declares, that all . /34g4sia fruper/y be cotlfiscated whenever it is found on board a Vessel, although a Neutral, if the consignment 'belongs to Spanish in diviciuMs.. So likewise, will be confiscated all piCr. chandize which may be , met with; altheugh it may be inNeutral 'Vesseti," whenever it . is deOiled for the Ports of fait ;laud •0r.b.9 . Now this in. rerdiajun dues pot by any eneans go so far., as -the, Tars Morning Paris and Dutch Papers, the for- Flier to the 28th ult. and the latter to the 2d inst. reached town. The following are the only articles of tiny interest which they contain " Nuts, Nov. 27.—His Majesty the Emperor and King arrived at Milan on the 21st instant, at Decree which it professes to follow. Famica pro hibits all trade in English Alerchanclize,_ Produce, or IV.lanufaCture, as well as English - Property. SPAIN only confiscates English Property when 40 11.- signed,to a Spaniard, and does riot 'prohibit t h e 3 Trade in English Merchandize. As the Ordinance, however, concludes with publishing in the Spanish States the same law which was. Promulgated by the Decree O . BUONAPARTE, the former' part of the Ordinance is,, perhaps, to be considered as surplus age, and as neither adding to, or taking from, theen 7 ,, aament of the FrenchMecree. The other Document laid before Congress is a Note' communicated by Lord Howl& to Mr . ,MONROE, ,in . January last. A Morning Paper _stiles , this Note " important in a double view. it shews that that Administtation, which ' has been so basely and groundlessly calumniated for , tame resignation and mischievous concession, , were not only aware of the just righti of the Country," &c.. Who would suppose that this important Note was Merely , the formal communication of the Order in Council of the 7th of January, which Mr. MON- Roz . lrad previously Seen in every London Paper ? If the Note proves any thing but' that Lord Howtci was not deficient in ordinary civility, it is that his Under Secretaries or Clerks did not belie ~the assertion of Dr. JOHNSON, that to write a 'Mite was More difficult than to compile a diCtionary ; for Ibis communication, being founded upon the Ordei itself, is so awkwardly worded as to be scarcely, English. To what lamentdble shifts are the advocates of the Whigs reduced, when they point to a clumsy compliment as the great proof of Talent and Vigour ! It is stated in a Mornink Paper that " Lord COL LINGWOOD, who has kept the sea for three years, has demanded permission to return home, and that Lord GAMBIER is appointed to succeed him." • We are enabled to state positively that the abovestate mept is wholly without foundation, LETTERS from Falmotith state, that Dispatches were received there on . Saturday, addre9sed to Sir SIDNEY SMITE, in the Tagus; they were consigtied to Lieutenant Wm, of the itibqu Cutter,who sailed immediately. Private Letters have reached this Country from the Island of Walchereb, of as late a date as the sth inst. Amongst a variety of other things, it is stated; that a Decree has been . lately published at the Hague, prohibiting, Under a severe penalty, the negociation of any Bill irr Exchange trot England, or with English indorsements upon it. It also proyideiP that no Bill of such a description shall be accgtek,.. Madeira, the conjectured destination of-Sirl,SatF MOIL HOOD'S Expedition, is well peopled, and i ca-., pable, from natural advantages, of considerable re. , sistance to a hostile . attack : should, howeVer,•:tliti capture of that island prove the objeCrof Sir Santtriv Hoop, as supposed, the force he carries out will doubtless not be found inadequate for the purpose, and the redu&ion of the neighbouring Portuguese islands will necessarily follow. The soil and climate of Madeira ar,e good, the necessaries oflife abundant, and it enjoys an exemption from every venomous reptile. Its rich delicious wines are justly in high estimation. Lieutenant-Colonel pitonoE'Smint,whoreteived the honour of Knighthood from His IVlAJavriat'the' late Levee, commands the 8.2 cl Regiment (not the 28th, a.i.statid thy Papers):.

This Corps WB9' thanked -by Lord CATHCZOiT for its gallant condnet before Copenhagen : its ilcviA in killed and wounded`' on that occasion was greater than that of all the re'st of the Army. IMIVATP, Wan) PETERSBURGIT, NOV. 13. g .‘ The`rommunication between this Country and Engldntt. is at •letigth interrupted.. Thott Ambassador ctevar i ts to.day, and in a few days the Consul; and ,tltnost the f e n4l,ll otablished here will tolloi v% It is evident „ the D duration of the Emperor, that BitoNAPARTP f diallieS to him — every ope is dis contented, though no one dare speak out.--when sny every one, I mean Russians; it is natural , -to think that4,gives no pleasure to the English. 1 bar here, however, that, nine-tenths of the Russians are against the French, but the latter have 1.50,000 men near our frontiers, and, assn Ritssian General said, they have besides greet pier. " By means of the Admiral commanding at Cronstadt, almost all the English Ships have escaped. Orders were received there that those Vessels should not be suffered to depart during three days, but the order being interpreted to mean that they should have three days to depart, .they all sailed, with the exception of one, which could not get ready. Whea the mistake was discovered, a Cutter was dispatched after the Vessels, which brought back three,. but the rest were too far off to be overtaken. " It is said that we shall have war with Sweden • but what is worse, in my opinion, it is said that the- French will be here next Spring or Summer, and that they are, only waiting their own convenience. Upon this subjed as expressien of. General SsvAtt .\;• hafbeen repeated, and, between one thing and, the other, one does not know what to think. It is said, that he, observed to a &male to whom he was as siduously paying court, and who was joking upon BuonereaTe,that she might speak so now, but that she durst not a year hence. It this is to happen, in the course of a year we maplexpect them here. The Emperor is much lessened in the opinion of his snb- - jeets. I think that in Spring attars will take a dif ferent turn."
