FROM CADIZ.
* Captain Leach, of the brig Constellation,
t sailed from Cadis, 23d of May, nine days
later than our former accounts. He in
forms, that a small battle took piece the
19th of May, between the armies; and
that the English and Spanish succeeded in'
J taking a smairfort, on the French lines,
and afterwards were obliged to abandon it,
with the loss of between 3 and 4000 men
That many Spanish troops had embarked
from Cadis, to join the main army at Gib
raltar That no reinforcemeat* had ar
rived, but the inhabitants were in good
spirits, apd well supplied with water,
though not of the best kind. Capt. Leach
is of opinion, that Cadis will be impregnable
to the as long as the Spaniards are
cordially disposed to maintain It, and hare
the aid of the English military and navy.

The Crnmnna papers by Captain Girdler
»i etn the 4ib of May. Their contents ln

They mention the tall of Astorga, bitt not
with ihe feas| despondency; and ike con
quest they say coat the French 4000 men.
Juynt directed the siege. The Spaniards
obtained a most honourable capitulation,
which they charge the French feith almost
iin mediately violating. From the obati
nxy with which this and other places have
■ been defended, it is evident the siege of
Cadiz is not the whole work the French
have upon their hands in Spain.
don papers to the 21»t of May. Extracts
from the papers are published under our
fateign head. The following summary of
intelligence by this arrival, wc copy from
the Buston Gazette:
In England no eveats of interest or mag
nitude were agitated, the exchange of pri
soners between that country and France,
had commenced. Four cartels with 800,
had sailed from Plymouth for Morlaix—
which were to be followed with many
others.
Sir Francis Burdett and Johrt Gale Jones,
remained quiet in their respective prisons,
until the trials of the Speaker of the House
of Commons, and Sergeant at Arms, shall
revive the slumbering passions of the mul
titude.

“ Sts— His Majesty having been graciously
pleased to permit me to return to England, J'
have to acquaint you that unless very unex
pected events should detain me, it is my in

season becomes favourable.
• I should lung ago have executed thia in
tentioa, had I not perceived that the peace be
tween Austria and France, and especially that
article of the treaty which carries the boundary
of Franc* to the Save, revived a hope in our
enem<s of engaging th* Porte to break With

Advices have been received by government
from Constantinople, which are said to contain,
important intelligence relative to the design*, of
Franc* against Taskey. The following letter
from Mr. Adair, to the British Consul at Smyr
na, will prove the falsehood of the report that
French intrigues had induced th* Porte to
brisk her treaty with us:
A motion for a Parliamentary reform,
was to be brought immediately forward by
Brand.
Account* from Spam and Portugal, from
England, though not so late as are general
ly received directly from thence, are al
ways more minute, and founded upon bet

knd since the capitulation of Astorga in
Leon, the French have pushed forwards to
Ciudad Rodrigo, which strong and defen
sive place is immediately to be invested.—
Lord’Wellington’s force (British) amounts
to 30,000 men, and 3000 more are march

General Crawford has been despatched to
cover Ciudad Rodrigo.
Ney nbw commands the French with
Jun at under who have about 30,000

an attack upon Badajoe.
Lord Collingwood has been buried with
great funeral pomp in London ; and his
body deposited at St. Pauls, close by the
aide of Lord Nelson.
The British Parliament it wss expected
would rise about the 20th of June.
Holland is now converted into a new

AU (he sensation," depressed by the de

yet with the foßeet reliance on the good fiuth
and boMur of the Forte, 1 dft not think it
right to quit ths affairs of the British Krnbaaay
in a moment even of apparent difficulty, nor to
sanction by any sudden departure, the idle re
ports that had been disseminated of approach
ing hostilities with this country.
** The event has in every' way answered my
expectation, the threats of France are disre
garded, every demand injurious to our friendly
relations with Turkey has been rejected with
indignation, and our enemies are themselves
convinced, that they will best consult their own
interest by abstaining from a repetition of their
offensive proposals.
“ Under these circumstances I quit the Em
bassy, without fear for the stability of the
peace, and with the assurance that'this pow
erful Empire is determined to assert its inde
pendence to the last, to adhere to Its treaties,
and if necessary, to put forth its whole force
to maintain them." e
Th* Insurrection among the Virginian

The President of the United States has
issued his Exequator to Samuel Blagge|
Esq. of Boston, as Vice-Consul of his Swe<
dish Majesty for the State* of Massachu

It now appears uy a correspondence
which has been published in the Paris
Monitcur, that Ferdinand Vll. of Spain,
was not the fool he has been described in
being the first to inform Bonaparte of the
praiseworthy attempt made by the English
to set him at liberty; but that it was one
D’Amezaga—one oi the Spanish spies set
over the kidnapped Kjng—who gave in
formation of the attempt to Mr. Bartbcmy,
the French gaoler of Valencay; and this
too before Ferdinand had any knowledge oi
it. After this disclosure Ferdinand knew
full well it would cost him his life if he at
tempted to countenance Kolli’s attempt,-
This is not the only circumstance, which
makes it certain, that tbe French aqcdunts
■of the professed loyalty uf Ferdinand to
Napuleon, and his attachment to the tnush
rbom dynasty of Bonaparte, are all forge
ries ; for were Ferdinand so great a fool as
to be thus attached, why not peirnibftitn to
return to Spain, to rally round him those
subjects which the French armies have
found so hard to be subdued; and by set
ting them the example of loyal obedience,
establish the Imperial sceptre in Spain,
and give peace to the Peninsula: But tire i
world expects better things of Ferdinand ;
should he, however, become as besotted as
these French accounts have represented
him to be, it will be the buunden duty
of every Spanish Patriot immediately to
throw off all allegiance to the traitor, to
declare themselves independent, and to
form and establish such a government, and
elect such Vulers, as they may deem fit aud
proper.
An Order in Council was signed on the
2d instant, fiy which it is ordered, “That
all vessels which shall have cleared out
from any port so far under the control of
France or her allies, as that British vessels
may not freely trade thereat, and which
are employed in the whale fishery, or othei
fishery of any description, s*ve as herein
after excepted,, aud are returning or de
stined to return, either to the port from
whence they cleared, or to any other port
or place gjl which the British flag may not
freely »ha)l be captured and con
demned, together with their stores and
cargoes as prize to the captor. But his
Majesty is pleased to except from this
Order, vessels employed in catching anu
conveying fish fresh to market, such vessels
not being fitted or provided for the Curing
of fish. And it is further ordered, that all
vessels subject to the provisions of this or
der as aforesaid, which shall have sailed
on their present voyage, pievious to notice
of this order, or reasonable time for notice
thereof, shall be permitted to return to
their own port without molestation on ac
count of any thing contained in this order,
provided they shall not have continued on
their fishery as aforesaid more than 21
days, (which are hereby allowed to such
vessels,) after due warning of this order
received at sea.”

has been garbled and extracted, Io be laid
before the publick As an example, take
the communications made by Jefferson, at
the opening of the second session of the

were many letters from that Minister, only
one of which, of twelve fines, is given
entity, because it was merely to enclose
copies of his representations to the French
government. »
Even the letter* from Madison to Arm

the whole correspondence with England,

of our ships, was given entire.

the impetuosity of his fall. Notwithstand
