The articles of the preceeding Treaty are ap proved and ratified on my part, as shall be shown by the conseq!tent effeels of the same. XAVIER ELIO. PEREZ, Secretary. OFFICIAL. Whatever may be the sacrifices which appear on the lace of the accommodation with Montevideo, the articles of which are now published, the Go vernment has felt it to be its duty to spare no pule.s to - promote the highest interests of the State, namely, its integrity arid the cessation of the calamities of an intestine war. Even though history did not present so rnapy ex amples of the fatal effet-ts which have resulted to empires from foreign interference in domestic dis putes, our contemporaries have received a lesson, — a lesSon as terrible as recent, in the calamities of the reigning family of Spain, which opened the gates of the kingdom to a foreign power, with whom that kingdom has eter since been engaged in continual combat. - Neither honour nor the love of our country, the tibjeal of the vows and of the sacrifices of her chil dren, would justify us in making that country the victim of resentments which were Lather owing -to dYersity of opinion, than to a real contrariety of prin ciples. 'Without bedewing our soil with our own blood, the Government -flatters itself that it will succeed in accomplishing the great work of securing the unity of the country, and concentrating all its resources, in order that they may at the same time serve as a bulwark against the ambition of external enemies, and an impenetrable safeguatd of the civil liberty and personal security of its citizens. The people, who have placed their confidence in the Government, may rest assured that this Govern ment, their own workmanship, has adopted the above measure, after serious and deep meditation, as the best calculated for putting the finishing hand to the grcit work which they have entrusted to it. 'hatever may be the suggestions of some men, whom selfish interest or merited disappointment may induce to impugn this measure, thus abusing that security which begins to brighten upon us, we flatter ourselves that it will receive its justification from time, and from the well-disposed of all classes. Inhabitants and fellow•citizens of the Eastern ,quarter ! the country is indebted to you tor` days of ,glory, which have added to its honour. Sacrifices of every kind, and a constancy superior to every ttial, - will.form your perpetual'eulogy. The coun try rtquires, at this moment, the sacrifice of yOur wi,lies; and thciugh your native zeal to serve it, displayed in struggling with all the rigours of war, may appear to have been thwarted; yet it desires you to economise that blood which is so precious to it, in order that your exertions, called forth at a con venient lesson, may decide its future fate.

We are still unable to communicate to our Read - 6 s any authentic intelligence respeling the fate of Valencia ; but it is stated, on the authority of letters from Cadiz, that it had not surrendered on the Ist of January: If, however, it be true, that BLAKBS army has been completely defeated, it is impossible that the City can hold out long. We have, given some extraas from Cadiz Papers which we received this morning. They state that the Catalonians are still aaive, and that they have made 'another incursion into France. The Pomone French frigate bac certainly been taken by the . Naive, Capt. GORDON. The latter lost his leg, bgt is - doing well. The anion was most severe. Pomone 44, AElive 38. The Case of the KING-V. THOMAS KIRWAN, one oldie persons charged with being a Catholic Delegate,' came or; in the Court of king's. Bench, Dublin, on the 27th, Mr. BURROWAS, le:Aing Counsel for the getenattnt, objeaed to the male in which the Jury wac formed, An investigation immediately took place, of which we have not room to detail the particulars. The Court decided—against the chal lenge made by the defendant. The Morning Chronicle is in great alarm and in dignation, lest the supply of stores to our gallant Army in Portugal should be interrupted by the two French frigates which are said to be at sea. The Morning Chronicle's anxiety for our Army in Portu gal is new and meritorious ; but this, like all its other prophetic bodings, is utterly unfounded, and abundantly ridiculous.. The facts. stated by the Chronicle, and the conclusion which it draws from the faits, are as follow:—The schooner Maria, from Lisbon to Portsmouth, speaks the sloop Friendship, from Jersey to Madeira, all well—no enemy seen— no ship captured ; ergo, the French are in posses sion of the sel, over which these ships were sailing; a convoy of 120 sail is seen , in lat. 45. all standing to the eastward with a press of sail; ergo, these 120 ships were only part of a convoy (a good large convoy it must have been originally) : they were all together standing the same way ; ergo, they were dispersed : they were seen on the 15th inst. steering eastward, ergo, they were pursued by two frigates which were ,een on the 16th steering to the westward. Two frigates are at sea ; ergo, they are French ; and the convoy is observed steering a course towards England ; ergo, they were outward bound. These are the statements . and reasonings upon which the Morning Chronicle expects that there will be direst Addresses to the PRINCE REGENT to re move Mr. YORKE and his Colleagues from office. Undoubtedly, we admit, that any man in the coun try who can understand the naulical logic of the Chronicle, may be expelled to sign such an Aa dress, which we suppose will be drawn up by the acute author of the present paragraph, and will, there fore, probably, be somewhat in this style : May it please your Royal Highness, the French have had 40 sail of the line and 100 frigates,'&c. dispersed in va rious poris from the Texel to Trieste, which have been blockaded by his Majesty's ships for two years with complete success. Two fri. gates are supposed to have escaped , in the long and stormy nights of January, and they ate almost immediately after seen and chaced by several of his Majesty's frigates,. and of which there are no less than eight or ten watching the bay in which the French ate said to be. We entertain the liveliest confidence, that nothing but the most extra ordinary good luck or some unforeseen accident, can enable the Enemy to escape from our adive and cruizers, and therefore we think it right to presume,. before-hand, that they will escape, and if they do, that it can only be through the fault of the Admiralty ;. and if they do not, it will not be through the merit of the Admiralty; and whether these two frigates be overtaken or not, and before we know any thing on the..subjea, we entreat your Royal Hig hness to make haste to dismiss your present Board of Admiraliy, for if you pause, you may' perhaps. un fortunately find that they are no more to blame in this instance than they have been in any other.

PLYMOUTH, JA QB.—Arrived last night in Caw sand Bay, the ATnerican ship., Peace and Plenty, Captain HA from Wilmington, With a &Iry for this port, came a running ship, fifty•six days pas sage. Early yesterday morning, about four miles South-West of the Scilly - islands, she fell - irt 'with ' his Majesty's frigates Endymion and Furtunje, and waS boarded by the -- latter, which ships were then in 63E4: of two French frigites, that had previously chased the - Far hot& into Cock, where the latter was joined by the Endrnion, and sailed from thence im mediately in pursuit of the enemy's squadron. • Cap tain HALL states, that at the time he vas boarrkd by the Fortunje, two ships, apparently frigates,were discovered at a great distance, which, in all proba bility, were .those of the enemy. The Endynijon and Porta - nee made all sail after the strange vessels. Arrived the transport ship Champion, T. JACK sox master, from Lisbon. She broughr passengers, two Officers belonging to the German Legion. Sailed on the 14th instant, in company with a fleet of transports and merchantmen, consisting of abnut forty-fire sail, under corlvoy of the Hyacinth sloop of war. Parted with them on Thursday last, a few miles to the westward of Scilly. Arrived the Respec7, ATKINsoN, from Sunder land, laden coals for this port ; the Hope, A's 'jams, from Guernsey ; the Achato sloop of war from a cruize in the Channel ; and the Prince, Crow master, from Quebec. Arrived the American ship Paulint!, FIELDS, from Charleston, with a cargo, bound to London, put in here for orders. Also, arrived this day a French sloop, prize to one of our cruizers. It has been obServed in an Opposition Paper, that the main point in which we are to dread the genius of BUONAPARTE, is in his cre.ition of a French ma rine, and in proof of the probability- of his accom plishing -such a purpose, we are referred to his great length of sea coast, and are asked, " Is it credible that the Possessor of Holland can want sailors ?" As to the length of his sea coast, unless he could be sure that they will always be defended for him, and provea nursery of sailors to support his usurping .and oppressive domination, there is no Wong reason for him to depend upon tfre amplitude of his coasts, however extensive they may be.—As to his com mand of the naval power of - Holland, the shipping he may seize, but he can have little reliance on the Dutch seamen. They must detest the Tyrant-who has destroyed the independence of their country, and reduced it to the most abject slavery. We find that vast desertions from his army take place, even among Frenchmen, who cannot return to their country without the cei taint)/ of being shot ; and is it ,to be supposed that the Dutch s e a men w ill b e rtiore attached to his interests ? But we are told that this chief danger of a formidable French ma rine depends upon our remaining at peace with Ame rica. The plain inference from this reasoning, on the part of the Opposition paper, is, we presume, that for fear a French marine should be created, we should sub mit to all the insolence and all the aggressionswhich the Dernigogues of America may force the Government of that country to direct against us. This is a ground of argument which, we trust, will always be re jeCted by the spirit as well as the gripd sense of Great Britain, and while ‘ce have such a navy in possession, we need not submit to the unjust de mands of 'America, to avoid the danger%.of a French marine, that only exist in the fears of party, BOXING.—The match between Ballard and Smith, for a stake of 20_ guineas, and a subscription purse of ten guineas, took place on Tuesday, at. Combe Wood, near Kingston. Ballard has been reckoned a boy miller of the Westminster School, who had fought six battles before, but of doubted game, since his combat with Bristol Hall on Old Oak Common. Smith, a heavier man, having made some good stands against first-raters of middle weight, was backed I t to 8 ; but just previous to stripping, the odds turned to even betting, and five and six to fotfr on Ballard. Caleb Baldwin was se cond to Ballard, and' addington Jones t 6 Smith.— At the fourth round, Smith was beat without a hit of any consequence,. although he managed to stand up 14 minutes. A second battle was fought between two pugilists, the former, one of the best eleven-stone men, and the latter - a plant, from Bristol, of tremendous power and. action. It was one of the best contested battles ever observed. The stranger, Fotd, is from the nursery of Bristol. King was the favourite at set ting-to, but the courage and knowledge of punishing by : Ford, vanquished the former's science, although he fought with the courage of Crib or Gully. The battle lasted 40 minutes. Ford reuvihded• the ama teurs of the invincible Pbarce, the Game Chicken. Like the Chicken, he possessed little science, and' disregahled punishment ; he was always hitting with his man, and his blows were planted right and left with' tremendous force. His left hand had closed King's eye in an early stage of the battle, but it took nothing from his courage ; but Ford com pletely . beat away his antagonist's science. En no stage of the battle be appeared fatigued, but when hit, he returned with courage never'exceeded.— King was knocked down several times by hits on his head, but a repetition of a knock-down blow on the jaw sent hint down like an ox from the ham mer of a sturdy slaughterman, and he was incapable of getting on his legs. The vanquished is a first-rate, with abundant sci ence, courage, and game. Ford never was. in the ring of London amateurs. He is under Gregson'a protection, and will be formidable. He fights on the system of the Chicken, eager to give, and regardless of taking. He is five feet seven and a half, weighs about eleven stone, and is is, years of age. Lie re ceived a liberal subscription purse. sPANIsii PAPERS. The accounts from Catalonia to the EMh are extremely flattering concerning the state of tl,at country. The Catalonians had made a new exc!ai sion into France, which they alarmed as far as the city of Tolosa.

Grear want of provisions is experienced in that fort ress, the garrison of which princip.illy consists of Germans, Italians, and Poks.
