This measure has been adopted in consequence of advises having been re. ceived of an Order having been issued by the Court of Madrid for detaining • all British Vessels in the Ports of Spain. We •are, however, happy to learn that this latter or4er will attach upon only three or four of our Vessels, which are all that ,remain in the , Spanish Harbours, The Letters of Marque, it is bald, will not be issued till the arrival of 'Mr., Fttatta, who is hourly eXpefled. Admiral RussELL's Letter, which will , he found in another part of our Paper, is 'an admirable pro. duaion, and does honour to that gallant Of. fleet, and to the person to whom it is address. ed. How different are the sentiments and con dn6l of both (torn those of the vile Corsican, -and, if possible, his still more vile myrmidons. We cannot conceive the motives of certain Morn. ing Prints, in publishing accounts of the continuance of the itever at Gibraltar, of twelve day: older date than those of which we have intelligence, which we tan positively assure . our Readers, state that the Fever had nearly disappeared, not more than from two to tiltte persons hating died from the 221 to t he 25111 November. Oar observations on the probable step that 80. ATAPARTit will now take, having gained the sum. mit of his ambition, drew from a Morning Paper two long columns of the same kind of fustian it which th:tt Print so largely deals in general. If the Politics of the, Paper in question were conduaed with any degree of candour, patriotism, or .ability, we shtold feel ourselves flattered Jy the attention which he says he has paid to our remarks, end we are ready to acknowledge our perusal of wirls the same attention; hut •the contrary being threase, we shall-content ourselves with referring him to the wow of our authority for the Y:da, ( w hi c h h e will per6eive is not quite so high a li t ' l e. spettable as he hars.been pleased to give tosc:redit itH)l stud for out eiiser , siatirprs on the . tad, which seem to have made so deep an impression upon him, we s h a ll h ey : l eav e to t ake tie credit to Ourselves...... We shall, therefore,A - efer him toCapitain jwcetras Bttorzu ANT, Nietnlierof the Legion of Honour, and ofi cers , who all declare that little is now said of thelmv4si , lii Of Cmsii tiy,but that the general wish and general convccsation are turned on Pe4c e, We have the pleasure further' to state, from the aloha, Ti:y of an Officer 'on board the A r lorlareb, that one of the Officers of La Raterothense was at Calaii when the Explosion Vessel blew up under Fort Rouge; who acknowledged that much damage was done ; that the Soldiers and Seamen were dreadful. ly Aidrined ; and that the explosion was so violent as to shake the !lutists in the town, and to demolish she windows, on his return to Town, swed for . a short time at Stamford, 'a greio bax, eontaining his Lordship's most valuable and, confidential Papersd was stolen out of his carriage, and that every possible endeavour to cli.,eover the robber has proved ineffraual. Besides this Box a Pistol was also taken from his Lord. ship'; Curiage. As the Papers in question are of the most impluant nature, great uneasiness has been excited by this daring robbery.
