L. Al ED A 11. S.—An inhabitant of Chaumont, in the Department of Anbe, in France, in ploughing short time ab a outgo, turned up with his coulteran old eartherapot, tining 4,000 Roman medals, bearing the effigies of several of the Em. perors who lived in the third century. They do not appear to have been ever circulated, and are in good preserration. loTiri-NGII AM, SEPT. g.-- his morning, about three o'clock, a most destructive fire broke out in the extensive wood-yards of Messrs. ourx s, timber.merchants of this to wn. The flames were first discovered by a boatman pasiing up the canal and near to the premises 4 who instantly gave an alarm, and the engines were soon b rou g ht to thespot... The fire, how. ever, had gained such an ascendancy that all endeavours to save the premises appeared useless ; anti, in consequence, the exertions of. the firemen, .were di r ected towards the preservation of a. public-house and out-houses adjoining the wooti-yard. which fortunately escaped with little injury. It waft not until nearly nine o'clock that the flames were entirelysubdued. How the 'conflagration happened is not at present ascertained. The amount of property destroyed exceeds 1,000/., the whole of which is insured. A few days ago ,-a woman was put to the Bar of the police Court,. Edinburgh, on a charge of being drunk 'and disorderly. The Magistrate said, if she wonlci promise to abstain from drink ing s pi r its in future, he w ould allow her to go - without punishment. To which she replied with great' candouv—" Atweel no, -no do that : I've ay' Wen a drappy whan 1 could get it-- , and I'll-do sae yet." SALE AT Fo sTHILL ABBEY. FONTIIILL, SEPT. 9.—To-day the sale of the superb Effects of this magnificent Establishment commenced. The fineness of the weather was highly favourable to the display, of all the cir cumstances which invest the Abbey with so much interest and attraction. The serene and mellow radiance of a clear autumnal sun gave to the solemn architecture of Fonthill, and the deep scenery in which it is embosomed, the highest richness and variety of effect. Notwithstanding the beauty of the morning, however, the con course of visitors was not so great as had been expected ; but it was accounted for on the ground that an erroneous opinion had gone abroad of the vied having closed in consequence of the commencement of the sale. There is no doubt, that had It not been for such a supposi tion, the Humber of equipages, which added brilliancy and animation to the scene, would have been much augmented, and there world have been a greater profusion of beauty to give its last and consummate grace to a creation of human art, which 13$ems to realize the fictions of Arabian enchantment. The public were informed that the Library would be taken first, but the rare and curious works were not among those enumerated for the first clay's sale. At one o'clock the sale commenced. Mr. l'utrAirs ad dressed the company, and said, he had the honour of calling their atttention to a sale of property as important in point of value, selection, and variety, as any that had ever been exposed to sale in this country. He begged to be allowed to state dis tinctly, that the instructions which he had re ceived were such as made it imperative on him to sell every article specified in the catalogue with out the smallest reservation, notwithstanding all that was said or written to the contrary. For the accuracy of what he stated, he referred them to the Excise Office at the close of the sale, by which they could at once ascertain the truth of his as sertion, and any deception which might be practised would be detected, for he would not make the statement unless it would bear the test of the severest scrutiny. Ile then enumerated the general arrangements under which the sale was to be conducted, as announced in the cata logue. The conditions would be read by the Clerk, and if any of them were objected to by the company, he entreated that the objection might be stated forthwith, that a precedent might be established on this the first darof the sale, which would regulate their pro ceedings in the ensuing weeks.—The first lot was then put up, being the Life of the ltev. Alexander Geddes, which brought 12 shillings. —The second was The Life of George V$ hie!' fetched (is. In fact, the highest lot in this day's sale did not reach to more than eleven pounds. 'None of the works very interesting to either the scholar or the antiquary being in this day's division of the sale. Some few boo ks, which contained notes in the hand-writing of Mr. Beck ford, fetched more than others, but the books were in general of an ordinary description ; the highest among them, in point of price, being the Annual Register. They had all, however, the advantage of a binding, which, in stile and work manship, was expensive and admirable. In look ing over the Library, previously to the sale, we ob served one work which, on account of the notes affixed in the autography of Mr. l3eckford in pencil, we cannot help noticing here, although it was not in the sale of this day. The work is--- is Life of 'the lute Charles Jas. Fox," and those leaves which were once the blank leaves in the front of the work, have the following notes written very legibly in pencil by the late proprietor of Fonthill. Some of them are indeed merely reference to the contents of the volume, but others shew the sort of estimation in which that Gentleman held the character of Mr. Fox. PREFACE 5. That unconquerable propensity to gaming— that disregard of character for which this distinguished Senator and Statesman was notoriona. Preface IL Fow men possessing such talents and attainments have written less than 11.1 r. Fox. Page 8. True portrait of Lord Holland, sketched by Horn Tooke. 13.

Moves (in 17.72) for the repeal of the Act which restrains the marriage of the Royal Family ; this, it was observed, came with singular grace and propriety from Mr. Fox, whose father was married at the Fleet ; quarrels with Lord North for hay. ing hinted that his orations were in souse cases too figurative; said to have declared that he considered advice an insult offered to his understanding. 36. Prepares himself for the famous debate on the 39 Ar ticks, by passing the whole night at the gaming table. 25. Donuts the people. 39. A string of bon toots which by no means prove, as the author asserts', any . pecilliar readiness of repartee or shrewd ness of observation. 47. His animation at a horse-race. 49. his shabby behaviour to Mrs. Crewe. 59. • llis taciturnity at the Literary Club in. Johnson's ,presence. 110. A dip in the Devil's punch-howl on the top of a moun tain near Killarney, which nearly cost him his life. HO. It was unanimously agreed by the Whi b .vs (of 1782) in full divan, that the Duke of Portland would- make an ex sellent Dian of snow for a Prime Minister under their auspices. The tories of 1907 find him just as convenient. 86.

Ills belief in the immortality of the soul. 261. Ne neglected correct diction, and attention only to his matter was only betrayed into soleci s ms of language and viola- Lions of grammatical accuracy.—The sale continues to-morrow. THE TROCADERO. To enable our Readers to form a just estimate of the importance of the taking of the Troca dero, which has been officially announced this morning in the Moniteur, we think it necessary to give some details of the fortress,and of the po sition which we have gained, not from dictionaries Or maps, but which have been furnished to us by an old officer, who in the late war had for many months, with a body of troops, occupied this point. t.indiz,the Trocaderoond St.Mary's,form a kind of triangle, whose sides partly encompass the great bay of Cadiz. The most distant point is Cadiz. On the right as you look to the sea is St. Mary, and on the left, opposite to the canal which en closes the Isle of Leon, stands the fort of Mate .gorda ; and this is more important than * the Tro cadero, being situated about 3,000 toises from Cadiz. Over against the Trocadern, on the other side of the canal,. is the causeway of the Isle of Leon and the Cortadura, a covered way .which separates Cadiz from the continent. The canal of separation between the covered•way and the Trocadero is called the road of the Puntals, defended by a fort of the same name, and under batteries which must he passed before you arrive, by sea, at the remotest bay which washes the Isle of Leon proper.—lt was only in 1810 that the , French, after they had made themselves masters of the Matagorda, fortified that end nearest to the Isle of Trocadero, and gave to the fort which they constructed the name of Trocadero. It is on .hese batteries that the famous mortars of Vil laintroi, which had been east at Seville, were placed ; and this is the point from which they fired the bombs, which arrived with difficulty be . fore Cadiz, but without exploding, as the success of the contrivance was defealed by the distance, and excessive rapidity of their motion. The oc cupation of Trocadero can much less facilitate the attack directed against Cadiz, than that against the Isle of Leon ; but the fort of the Punta's, which commands and defends the passage, and which in , addition is bomb-proof, will necessarily present the greatest-obstacles to arriving at it. It may even be presumed, that before they at tempt to gain possession of this position of the causeway, where they will find themselves exposed to the batteries of Cadiz, and encompassed by the sea, that they will direct the efforts of the army against even the Isle of Leon, cent iguous to which is another small island where the marine arsenal is situated, and which also presents the great est resources of defence. Then after they shall have made themselves masters of these points it will still be possible to make a serious attack on the land side against Cadiz, which cannot be bombarded but from the sea. Finally, there are in this brief notice facts and conjectures; the facts are positive, but the conjectures arl2, under the disposal of chance, which happily can not be very distant.----(Constitutionnel of ihnidali.)

Vitiler'e mail-coach Manufactory, applied ter advice. He said that One of the men employed at the factory attempted to drown him self twice on Monday night, but was watched and prevented.— On Tuesday night he made two attempts to hang hitnsell; but was also prevented. He (Mr. Ntraters) ipieslloned hint yesterday morning; he eppeared quite collected, and said that something had preyed upon his mind, he would never be happy, and he was, determined to destroy himself: Upon being pressed ter an explanation, he declared he was present at the murder of a young lady at Cadiz, by Nnglish sailors, about If) years ago he had no hand in the murder, but he was one of the party. The man was afterwards brought before the Magistrate. Upon being questioned, he said he was born at Wandsworth. His father died when lie was very young. At an early age he was hound apprentice to a small, but left bin apprenticeship and entered on board a King's ship, the President frigate, then upon the Cork station, and com manded by Captain Willis.

PARR, SEPT. 8,-4V° announced that an., English vessel, coining from Gibraltar, had 'pre sented itself to the French fleet 'blookiding Cadiz, after - having saluted his Majesty's flag.— The Captain of this ship and a Secretary imme diately landed on the coast, and requested to be' conducted to the head-quarters, to pay their re spects to the Prince Generalissimo. It now'ap. pears that the Secietary was Sir W. A'Court's, and that he came to offer a capitulation under the mediation of England. The Prince, it is added, answered as a worthy descendant Of Henry IV, that the delay which he had allowed for negociations having expired, he should trust for the issue to the valour of the French arms and justice of the cause which the King had sent him to defend. The bombarding of Tampeltina began on the 2d of . September.--(Etolle). According to letters received from the head quarters, dated the 30th, it appears that comma- Lions have broken out in Cadiz among the people, and among several Constitutional regiments. The Cortes begin to despair of their cause.---(ibid). Our correspondence from Perpignan comes to the 31st ult. We transcribe the following " On the 23d, the garrison of Barcelona made a sortie at ten in the morning. The Constitution alists attacked Gracia, the head-quarters of Gen. Curial, commanding the blockade. They forced that post, and our troops fell back. There was lighting near Gracia from ten till two. .The ene►ny had in the plain between Barcelona and Gracia a strong reserve, with artilkery, which did not fire, and which favoured the retreat of the troops employed in the attack."—(Constitu tionnel). SEPTEMBER 9.—M. de Villole, President of the Council of Ministers,transacted business with his Majesty at two o'clock. A letter dated from before Cadiz, announces that in the , night of the 2►9th and 30th of August, the flotilla of Santi-Petri captured two barks laden with oxen and wheat. Rear-Admiral Baron de Retours, who has the command of the squadron ad interim, curried these prizes into Rota. it is with much regret we announce the loss which the department of the Upper Marne has sustained in the death of one of its most distill .guished inhabitants.

" REPORT OF TUE MARSHAL DUKE or erocao TO HIS EXCELLENCY THE MiNISTER OF WAR. " 111AMilD, SEPT. 2. " MaxsEraxix it—The movements ordered by ',General Count Bourck, to cut otf the retreat, on the aide of La Pucbra de Sanabria, of the Constitutional troops that Issued from Orense, have had the happiest results. " After very severe forced merciless, General MagnerYe, with tht :13th of the Line, came up with them at Gallegos :de Camp. lie made arrangements to attack them, when a flag of truce came to make propositions, which were rejected. The enemy, seeing that General Alarguerye was determined to fight, sent a second officer to ' announce that his 'ultimatum was accepted. " A capitulation was consequently signed, in virtue of which Generals Bosch) and Vigo, Brigadier Pabirea, four Colonels, six Lieutenant. Colonels, 140 officers of all grades, and 1,204 rub-officers and soldiers, surrendered prisoners of war, and are to be taken to France. There hare been ;moreover taken, with the colours of the regiment of Burgos, .15 barrels of cartridges, much arms, and a chest containing 29,000 francs. I cmtnot send your Excellency the capitulation, as this document hat not reached me. " General Marguerye marches on. Zamora with his column of prisoners, whence he will send them on to Burgos by several detachments. " The taking of the corpS of Palarea ensures the tranquillity. of Galicia. anti makes it necessary to leave there but a small number of French troops,' which renders the greatest part of the division of Mimic disposable, which I am going to recal to Madrid, and which in passing will reduce, I hope Ciudad Rodrigo, if indeed it does not open its gates before thei arrival of the division. (Signed, &c.) " Duke de RE( GIO." (nY F.XPUESS.) Mi.nieln, SEPT. 2.—On arriving at Malaga, Diego issued a Proclamation, in which he announced that he came to make the French, and the slaves of the French, bite the dust. Soon after he caused Generals Zayas, Arsdia, &Imo del the Governor Aguilar, as well as several other officers, to be ar.. rested. - The prisoners were taken on board the frigate Communera, where they had as companions" in misfortune the Archdeacons Asenje, Ximmies, Ileres, and Calvo. The convents of St. Do. manic, St. Francis, St. Peter d'Alcantera, and the Capuchins, were surrounded. All the monks who could not escape were sent on board the frigate. Even the nuns were not secure from the fury of this bandit, for we can give him no better name. lie had all who could not pay a sum of 1,00 reels (M.) drag ged out of their Convents. The town of Malaga was' fixed with a contribution of two millions of reels.. .0n the that this man of blood published a second proclamation, in which he threatened death to all who should talk of negoetntions, two Chambers, &c, &c. A few fugitives of the corps of Palarea, llosello, and others, after the capture of their chiefs, attempted to make a corn. motion at Antusco, in the district of Palencia.

Madrid Regency, which deprive the holders of national estates, particularly of such as belonged to the church, of their property, and order various other measures hostile to the liberal party. , Anion?, them are the following :—The punishment of secularized priests who are ordered to proceed to the places of their birth, and who are deprived of their licences to preach, confess, even to - say mass, until they shalt be examined. The 'taking from all persons who have belonged to the 'na tional and local militia, who have purchased na tional property, or who have been members of any patriotic society, the right 'orbeing members of Ayuntamientos, or of holding any civil place, in consequence of which no persons dttly qualified for such offices , can now'be found in Madrid.— These decrees have not only given offence to the Liberals, but even to the friends of monarchy ; and had another been issued, which, it is said, this Dtike of Aneouleme prevented, and which re quired the local militia to retire to the distance of six leagues from their towns, tranquillity would have been greatly endangered. It appears that the Duke, on being informed of ail this, his is sued a decree, directing that no persons !ball be arbitrarily molested or arrested for their former opinions, and ordering all who have been so ar rested for their former opinions, and ordering all who have been so arrested to be set at liberty. If he continue thus to enforce a just administra tion, to attend to whatever may be calculated to restore tranquillity, all Spaniards who are de sirous of peace, and have no wish for office, will be pleased with his conduct.—A circumstance which has excited great discontent is the taking from the militia the horses and uniforms, which were their own by purchase. INTELLIGENCE FROM BAYONNE. BAYONNE, SEPT. 2.—11 y the mail from Madrid we have letters of the 29th. The army courier has not arrived, 'arid we know not whether he has been stopped on the way, like the preceding. The capital enjoys tranquillity, though everybody is of course very anxious - respecting the events before Cadiz. The Duke. of Angouleme, who is: pretty sensible of the im portance of terminating the war as speedily as possible.(whicl may be said to be concentrated before Cadii) is 'Collecting ail the force he possibly can, both by sea and land. Several ships of warhaveniready arrived from the Mediterranean t and ten frigates are expected. The troops . which left Madrid with, the Prince are now at Port St. Mary (or, at least, on the point of arriving there), and General Rourroont and Molitor are expected here. The Royal Family-continue to enjoy good health. General layas has beet, succeeded in his command by General Itiego, who arrived at Malaga on the 17th. Zayas. takes the command of the army in Estremadura. The roads in several parts of Spain are very, unsafe. At St. Clementi (Cuenca) couriers, with letters, have been -stopped, and others: have been arrested by the band a ma w °, which was said to. have submitted ; but it seems It is divided in several Small troopS. A,pretty 'etinSidembleffiterilla.; commanded, by Castro, has appeared near Viersa. The .1 x. Banos has armed a flotilla, and the brother of the Marquis of Albendana. has done the same. These two flo tillas• have committed various depredatiOns along the coast. An account from Ztdamea de Sorana.(Eatremadura), sayt that the Constitutional troops in that province amount to 4,091/in fantry and 1,000 cavalry, and tint a conspiracy has been 41s. covered at Alticanueva, for the purpose •of re•establisiting the Constitution, and that , 1ti,090 cartridges were seized in the ofhouses various We find, from the capitulation of Corunna, that most of the leaders in that place, especially Campillo and the Pastor are prisoners of war, from which it is inferred that they iiedineti acknowledging the Regency at 111adriii ; we expect, them to be brought here on board a French frigate. All the gunners belonging to the marine and the militia, who, with few excep tions, are liiscayans and NaVarrese, have asked and obtained leave to return to their homes.

It its said thM the troops of the Faith before Pampeluna have been removed, and a position assigned them five leagues in the rear of the besieging army. It is supposed that their discipline k not so Strict as that ut the French. The restoring the prisoners to liberty, according to the decree of the Andujar, displeases the Spanish RoyaliiitS, especially the priests and monks, some of whom have not been ashamed to cry " Death to the French Death to the traitors 1" _ _ Five companies or artillery are ready to embark here, to j9in the army before Cadiz, and will sail the day after to-morrow: EXTRAORDINARY SUICIDE. , . .
