This con,jec:ture, though plausible, is, we• have reason to think, Hi's ,Majesty's Ministers have riot; we believe, ,received auy notification ()fatly such intention on the part of Austria, except by thw ar ticle in the 4ioniteur of the 13th. _....,....:._ WE have .receiredAntilligence from the COnti-' tient, can the accuracy 4f which we place the firsnest,) reliance whichinducesim to believe O that 800t44- FA : 4 is' - '4etprraltisa to forco America to 'take a de dried . par.t in the War, 'either qn the side of Great Britain-or France,-'At one of his f i evees, a shOrt time since; lid declared hli .0 t CZ General A i sTKON,o . tlza~. `.jbe would not *admit of .any Neu,- trals the' r War; and he added, " You may tell your employers, that they may join with Eng- . sand if, they please; but it is my determination to exterminate those, - prohd . Islanders from the face of the 'Lamb !" ' WE this morning received iimerican Papers to the' btli ult. T.hey are very barren' of intelligence, ',Ole' clamours against thkieountry have in a great degree subsided. E• • • By a 'Vessel which arrived from , Bilboa yesterday, we received a Copy ,cif the following important De cree, which w,as issned. (ram the -.Palace of Stn Lorenzo on the 30th ult' and addressed to the Go vernor' of the Council ad interim • C. R. Co l d, ,who watches over his creatures, does not permit the consummation of otrocious deeds, when thc)ntended Vic ems arc innocent:-'•Thus his omnipoienCe has saved the froth "the most unheard-of catastrophe. My People," my Subjects, all know my Christianity, and settled habits:— They ;.11 Love me, and I receive from all of them proofs of their vener. , tion7such as the conduit of a parent calls for frOm his children. t lived persuaded of this felicityi and clevotedto the repose .0f my family, when ar' Unknown hand 4iscoyeted the most 'atrO:iiOns and unheard-of conspiracy, which was carried on in my own palace, against my person.— , My life, whiCh has so often been in danger,. was too long in the eyes 4, ./ my Ille" l ..riTt. Who, infatuated by prejudice, and alienated tram every principle of Christianity that toy pater.. 'rut:cart and toy; had ;aught him,. had etiteral into a proje to dethrone me. Informed of this, t thought proper to In quire personally' into, t h e tr u th o f t h e tact.,,and surprising ah`ri in pry room, I found in his possession the cypher of .his correspondence, and of the instru4ious he had teCeived from the, vile eonspirators. • - in consequence of this discovery, I immediately convok ed the Governor and Council, in order that'they might make the necessary inquiries ; and the result has - been , the deteci. lion of several malefaCtors, whose imPrisonment'l 'have' ordered ; .also the,arrest of my, sort at his residence. This is an additional aggravation of the afflidion I labour under; hjiwever, painful to ,my feelings, 'if must be submitted to, ae it is of the utmost importance ,to the suppression of such a conspiracy. At the same tine that I di red the:publica tion of this ,afrair to my Subjee.ti, I cannot avoid' ex,. pressing to them tlivegret by which I, am agitated ; but that Tegtvt will be alleviated by .tlic demonstrations of their loya!ty. " Yoit will take the proper Measures to have ;his Decree circulated in due form. " CHARLES R." " By corntrtand of his Majesty, I trartmit this Drt;rce to your I;xtcllcucy, in order that it triny be duly prorinikitted. " Sighed by tho Ministv.rs, anti addressed to all toys, &c,:. &v." Upon the above most extraordinary Proclamation it is hardly necessary to make any eomment. some time ago stated pur reasons for bcUeving that BtFONAVAUTE had determined to wrest the Crown of. Spain frOM the. BovatioN and the events which have recently °centred leave not the slightest doubt in our minds Upgil the subjetl. As soon a g the French Army shall ,have-suiticienly advanced Into Spain, ISUONAPARTE will IfiCoVor off the mask, and the fate of the 'Spanish Monarchy will be decided. . The Trial of the Prinee'of ASTURIAS is, we nu, derstand, fixed for the 2d of December. We Shall submit to our Re4ders some obseNations upon this pubjed We have this, day resumed our Extracts from the French Papers w hich arrived yesterday. If we may rely on the accounts which t hey cotain, Ansi ria isit length added to the Eneiuies of this . Country. " This event imputcd, in the Illoniteur of the iath, to the ef lea: which o ur Expedition ag4ihitt,Peitumic pro duced on the Austria') 00verutpetit, as well as to the:relosal..of the British Cabinet to accept the rne, f liatio . p. of Russia, in ore r, if possible, to bring for ward gyerinres of a pacific i tendeOzy between this Con try nuct France. Austiia has indeed de- dared war against this Country, she has prObai,!7 acted from that degree of tear which the chardier of the grencli Ruler, )is vaq strength, and the ileperlency ot 'most of the Con—, tinental States on h‘s.. Must.rreterally have ex. cited. All these dependent States, in case of a rapt ; lure between France and Austria, must of course have been obliged 'to 061 against the latter,.and no 'thing but her ruin could mine., That Austria en. . deavours to, cover the policy preduced by fear with a pretended disaPprobathin' of the' conditet of Great Britain, is to be eXpe&ad, for it cannot be' supposed that she would unveil her real motives, and she mast assign soma 'plea' for any hostile step, she ' may be obliged to. take against this Country. In this unfortunate state of things she is to be pitied, as she would doubtless be 'anxious to support her connexions with tlifs ConntrY,, if she .cdnid do do with:as. much - safety as. honour. Bin she sees ,tffe• throne of Portugal on tbe,eve of snOversionandbps reason to believe that a. similar event will soon fol- ' ,l OW in Spaiti,• and therefore .she feels herself ern pelled to abet lite views of France to preserve. / - 1W• own existence.''' IloWever; though we may regret , •, l P o . lll e l4ll ellOY to which Austria is duced, we had. rcason.-to 'exped that , she would he obliged. to take- 'part againstliS, 0(P-her defeailon. from the great cause in whiCh we are ciigaged con j . , not be considered is any very weighty, *llion to the , diffieulties ,with which we have,to contend. The fate of Portug..al.has doubtless long been de:' cidedby'France, but' the reason given by the French Ruler f6r the detholition of its ancient Government would . be absurd iideed, if: it was a,signed by any body but a man :who, is totally regardless of the' opinion - Of the world. 1311 . 0NAPART reason for overturning the 'Royal 'HOuse . of BRAGANZ.I, is, that the Engli i sh were 'suffered to':remove their 'property: front Portugal, though she was in al liance.. With Great Britain, and had experitmced from' her every possible testimony of respect and friendship. - that Spain will soon exhibit the saute catastrophe it .would be,absurd .to doubt, after the events which have recently occurred in that Country. The charge against the -PR-IN:6E of ASTURIASiS eviL • dently.the result of ti French plot, to bring ruin upon _ .., himself and his faintly... 'The probability, however,., 'is that ,the. PEINCE 0( PEACE, who has been the • chief engine of this plot, will not, eceive the reward: of treachery 'which hiS arribition ma); 'expeel, but that ,the Spanish Thump i s reserved fersotne branch of the Tingerial'House of Corsica. In addition to this melan':!.oly account of the 'state Of affairs abroad, it is v.iih much satisfaffion that, from accounts on wl. ch we can most confi dently .depend, our Countrymen,• amidst all the ,pressures arising from an inevitable War, arc to be congratulated op their state, .compared Compared with the Situation of the French People, amidst all her tri umphs?'..for:suCh is the reign of terror in France, as we are assured by an . tuts lligeitt gentleman, upbn whose veracity 'we can impliCitly rely, that nobody in that,unhappy Cotintry dares preSunie to utter any, sentiment respeEting political affairs, without being - exposed to . the danger of being accused of holding some connexion with this Country, of being seized in-Consequence, and of 'never. being 'heard of any more: The news of Or success at Copenhagen threw BUONAPARTE into a state that . seemed to.- be, absolutely madness, atia he burst , into the . most frantic ,expressions of vengeance against this Country, ' and every thing canna:led, with it. , It ,is truly hiMentable that all Europe should be thus de pendent on the capriciOus will nottviolent temper, of a single individual ; but it is hardly to be supposed that this deplorable state of , things should continue long, as.the people alt over the Continent lutist re fieg, though at present they dare not speak, and therefore ,must be convinced that Great Britain only aims at the preservation of herself, and the happi ness of the civilized' world, and that France is the general disturber of mankind, and is obliged to at from the mere,impulse of the aMbition and revenge of anindividual. . . . - On Monday the Duke of YORK. went froin Oat- Itinds to Windsor, - and after transacting business with Hie MAJESTY,' dined with the QUEEN and PRIN• CESSRS, and in the evening came to Londoni— Yegterciy his Royal Highness held', a public day at his Oftice in the Herse Guards, which was'but thinly attended with Officers.
