The enemy have continued to move troops from the Tejd, in the direction; of the Douro ; and a division of the Army of the South relitci , ed in Sa latrianeu 'a division of the army of Portugal, which Las been "there for some time, and which now has marched in the direction of the Douro ; another division of the South !s in Avila. According to the hist accounts, King..TqsEpn's bead-quarters remained in Valladolid , those of the army of Portugal in Palencka.; those of the army of the Centre in Cuellar ; and those of the South in Madrid. ALIaAIiT, Aran. 6.—it appears that the allied army is going to act upon the offensive, for which reason all communication with Valencia has been prohibited. CACERES, APRIL 4.—General CASTANOS and his troops set out this morning for Ciudad Rodrigo.. Lisuoti, Arm 23.—General COTANOS has his head-quarters in Alden. de Bhp°. The French troops of the Army of the South have extended themselves upo►: the right of the Tormes„ Government have this day received letters from Lord Wer.LiNuTos, dated Frenada, Tat Apia, but they contain nothing of importance. The mimes remained nearly ill ; the French had evacuated Toledo. There are no arrivals to-day from'the'North of Europe. We arc the more anxious for infor .Tnation from that quarter, as, according to the last intelligence, BUYCHER and WITTGENSTEIN bad formed . a junction, and were bearing down upon BEAUHAIitiOn with the intention of forcing bim to an action. News of a battle, therefore, m9rbe expected .by the next mail, and one of no ordinary importance in its conseqnences. A sig nal defeat given' to BEAUIiARNoiS at the present, crisis would more derange the plans of BUoN'A PARTE than almost any cimunstance that could oc cur, and nothing thews more clearly the skilfully . arranged system of the Allies .for the ,conduct of the campaign than their thus ,'marching to force LuAonmitloisto a battle, mho is placed n'such situation thathe must either fight, or by retreating, place ntIpriTAPARTf: in nearly 'a similar situation ds if that . retreat bad been 'caused by a victory gained by the Allies,in the field. We have continued our extracts from ,the French papers, which . contain a good deal, "of the same verbiage respecting,, the. state of the armies, their confidence in their leader. ; his great and good qualities, and all the Other trash With Which the Parisian Journalists are in the habit of fa . vouriog us. Another of the unfortunate, inhabitants of 13re men has been mnydered, and we trust the threat- cited itthdiation for these atrocious crimes Ira( without' delay be carried into practice. Nothing ha a severe retaliation can put a stop to these inhuman acts, or teach the French, for the sake o their own interest, to desist from this career of blood, ,The Dulie,of 'CUMBERLAND :sailed from Yar mouth), yesterday, for the Continent. .The ?horning chronicle rettir9s this day .to the subject of Denmark, but without attempting to justify its charges agai nst Ministers, in having combined with Sweden in an attempt, to wrest Norway , - from the former. The writer 'affirms, 'that the taut et»ellt of the nature and extent or the Danish . dehiaii:is given in the Ministerial Papers , c was tint vovruct, but highly exaggerated, in marry respects':" if so, Why , thres not the Chro nicle state what those demands actaally . were ?- I'he st t iljr:tl i Of irapintance, indeed, of the utinnf 4 t iiillmrtoteet in- the 'present state of the Continent, .when all eyes are directed to , wards thc operations of its great ..up - pressor,— Sorety,it is incumbent on the' (lognit,te 4 f or the informatioii Public, ustiA ea , tion of itself ; to give an accurate 7.statemeni of die Danish demands, and to expose the many ex , *ggeytions whiCh it bnpaes' tcs the Ministerial Pipers!. The Chronicle represents, Deninark as in so:formidable a state, considering the presentSaw ftil crikis of afiairs, that it. ought to specify the exact grounds upon which she was induced to viithlrold.ber alliance' from the common cause of all the nations of Europe.- According tci.the ac count of the Clwoaiele,.the Danish Minister left this country with ,the most evident marks ,of disap pointment and - iiritation, insomuch that he did not even stop to settle any of. his own private af= rairs. Would it not then be candid in the Chro nicle rather to suppose that BERNS7ORFF' displayed a temper quite unsuitable to a Statesman, at any time, and more particularly at -this awful. period, than to infer that the BritiSh (iovern%nent would have lost the co-operation of Denmark at such a periOd, by ,harsh, unjust, and unreasonable requi sitions We are compelled by want of room to defer the remaining cla:lses, relative to , the Roman Catho lics, proposed by :Mr. CAN N ING, till td-morrow. Her MAJESTY and the. Princesses AUGUSTA and ELIZABETH arrived at Backingham Hinise at halt past twelve o'clock yesterday from 'Windsor, es corted by a pally of the lltlr . Light Dragoons.

The Prince' ordered a special,Messenger to be sent to Windsor, to inquire After the health e of his Royal Mother, , and the full particulars of the attack. On the return of the Messenger, the Prince sent off Sir ficavnv,HaLroan, ate seven o'clock iii the evening, to attend her Majeity. 7 — The circumstances of the attack we understand to have been as follow :—The unfortunate female, who caused the alarm is named Davenport, and held the situation or Assistane Mistfess of the Wardrobe to Miss Rice. Hen-mother has been nsii.h.r yelm• about the Royal Fa mily ; site was originally engaged as Rocker to the Princesses.; and after filling variety of situa tions very respectably, she vas aointed House keeper at the Lowev Lodge, Windsor: HOr daughter, the subject of this article, was born in the Queen's Palace ; she is now upwards of 30 Years of age, anel has lived constantly, her' mother, under the Royal protection. When - she Was a girl she, Was attacked-, by -a fit at insanity, bet 17,:as con,sidered perfectly cured ; however, she hasfrequently been seized with ,fits of melancholy, crying,: and being „very desponding,. with Out any known cause, , Her mind 101(1 been wire affected since the death of the Princess AMelia. She was present at the delivery of the funeral sermon which was 'preached •at Windsor on the melancholy oc casion, and WeiCh had sueh an effect-on her mind, that she became enamoured of the Clergyman who delivered, it, and report assigns 'love to; be' the cause of• the violent mental derangement 'with which she was seized on Sunday morning. She slept in the tower aver the Queen's bed-moth.— About five o'clock her'Majesty was awoke by a. violent noise at her bed-room door, Accompanied with a voice ealling londly,for the Queen of Eng land to redress her wrongs,- and with the most distressing shrieks and se-reams imaginable. The .Queen's bed-room has. two doors'; she used such violence as' to break` open the outer door, but tnund herself unable to break the 'inner' one. Mrs. Beekendoef, the Queen's dresser, sleeps in the room with her Majesty. They were both extremti ly alarmed, particnlarly at first. Her Majesty and Mrs. Beckendorf hesitated for some time what bad best be done; when having ascertained that it was a female voice, Mrs:Becket - Iliad Ven tured to open the inner door and get out. She there found Mk , ' Davenport, with . ouly her body linen on ; she was extremely violent with Mrs. .insisting upon forcing her way into the Queen ; and- • the, latter feared, that could she have obtained her - object of getting into the Queen's-betkroom, ; die would have vented her rage Upon,. her Majesty, from the language she used. She bad a letter in her hand, which she insisted o,n deliveringlo the Queen. Mrs. Beckendorf, was placed in a most perilous situation for about half an hour, ,being • subject to her, viOlenee, and entleavonring to pre vent her front forciou.. her way hi to, the Queen ; aud during this time the Queen heard all that was Passing;, and was in great agitation AO distress; lest Miss -Davenport should gain admittance to her ;, the nnfortutiate female declaring the Queen could and / should redress her wrongS. tetra. Beek- . endorf in the mean , time kept Hug h% s hell in the• passage, but unfortunately ,did not. at first awake any one, though at last the ince - o,ant and violent ringing of it awoke Mr. Groheeker, the Qiteens page, mule two footmen, who came to Mrs. Eeek,. enthirl's assistance. Miss Davenport made use of very profane language to- Mr. Gmbeeker. All these perthns could not manage ,her till Mr. Meyer, the_porter, came, and . he being .4 very powerful luau, uccomplkiwil it. When sla: found herself overpowered, she itisisle.d apon seeing tie Bing;, SileCigliti tint set the (Miceli; I\l l% yer carried her by fOree tap eto her bed 7 room.
