Cofiy of a letter from a gentleman at Ha

Havuvna, July 30.
Dear Sik,
I have just witnessed a scene
from the upper story ot my house, so awful
and solemn as almost to chill iny blood— - ■
the execution of the sentence herewith en
closed.
. The youth and appearance of the pri
’ Wmer, his solemn acknowledgement to the
public, at the prison door, of his guilt, and
the justice of his sentence, and his great con
trition, ii'nd the decent deportment of all
, classes of-people, through whom he passed,
from the pt ison to the place of execution,
made the scene truly solemn and awful
The arrangement made by the g >vernor
on the execution, emiiles him to high ere
dit ; as it nut only insured safety to the pen
pie,but tranquility ’<» the coy. No, an in
sol was off. red to (he prisoner, and his con
duct was such as to draw down the pity of
all who saw hint on his route to the place
fn,'m whence l.« took his leave of the world.
'1 here are a number'd' his associates now
in me U. 6>a'es. and three nr four of 'hem
hourly expcc'td here, who wid on their ar
rival shall, a similar fate. The seizure of
this deluded young man and hts papers has
completely developed the plans of tue trai

provinces of Spam &;>u' government into pos
s. .-.sion of a list of all their names, their e.
pi ssanes, their places of residence, to what
p.-rt or city hound. The Carte Blanche found
iii bis possession, > g.ied by Joseph, as well
a ; blank commissions, were burnt under the
gallows while he was suspended there, by
the p>.bhc hangman
It is ■ diil, that he hail authority to name
and commission all « tli .em in New-S'pain,
under a brigadier genei al, and had with him
commissions for the new Vice-Hoy and chiefs
of die kingdom.
A schooner is nov£ retting rehdy and will

already in that kingdom, and the names of
all thase implicated by the confessions or pa

1 hope sincerely, that measures will be .here

the perfidious design of creating divisions,
disorder and anarchy, with a view to avail

The passengers in the Plato report that
all American vessels at Stetin were seques

A Newport ship at Stralsnnd, and about
50,000 dollars value of the cargo of ship
Mount Vernon, of Salem, were sequester

sold, but was returned on captain Flint’s
hands.
No account of any seizure or sequestrati
on a' Koningsburg, bin it was reported they
would not be allowed to sell there.
1 he Danish government was believed
friendly to American commerce, but could
not resist the wishes of higher powers. The
warning American vessels not to enter port
(which prevents the risk of seizure and se
qiiestratmn) was considered the best service
the king could perform.

LATEST FROM LISBON.
By the brig Charles, 45 days from Lisbon,
we have received the following verbal intellt
geuce, viz :—
That the French armies under Gens. K l
I lerman ami Bernier, were advancing towards
Gailicia-—Lord Wcllii gton’s liead quarters
j were at Celorico, the remainder of the army
at Gunida, Francosa and Pinbel. The or
ders t>f the 2*d inst. were for the soldiers to
retain only one shirt each, and to send all the
heavy baggage to Coimbra. Exclusive of
the army under Lord Wellington, 0OO0 men
were at Portoalegre, cotnmanued bv General
Hill ; in the whole about TO OOOregular Por
tuguese and English troops, beside militia
1 he army under Gen. Hill was becoming
jealous ot the movements of a part of the
French army commanded by Gen. Regnier,
who was advancing by the way of Albu
querque with about 18 000 men. On the 15th
and 20th inst the French made incursions
neat R.idajoz, anti succeeded in carrying of}
all the cattle in the way. Gen. IVIassena's ,
head quarters, were near Ciudad Rodrigo, 1
whicn place was invested by the Fi ench, i
but no attack, had been made : it appearing 1
to he th. ir intention to force a capitulation by
famine, in which it was probable tlu-y would
succeed, the city being in want of every m
cessary, and would probably fail in a few
days. 'The French foices are estimated as
follows : near Ciudad Rodrigo, under Mas
sena 40 000 ; on the frontiers of Gailicia
20 000; in the vicinity of B idajoz 18 000 un
dei Regrrier, and about the same nuinoer
under General Laborde. The English weie
destroying the harvest wheiever they re
treated.
There were five lines of defence between
Lisbon and the Ei glish army, in the whole
j more than 1000 peiees of cannon. The En
Iglish have six men of war, and from 3* to
j 400 transports, laying in the Tagus and at
Oporto, which weie kept inconstant readi
ness for the embarkation ot the troops in
case ot a repulse. A one ot , elegraphs
was erected, by which intelligence of the ar
my on the frontiers could be conveyed toLis
bon in thiee horns. l)e>eners from the
French army were almost daily arriving at
Lisbon.”—Jifer jidv.
By the Niagara from Rio Janeiro, we learn,
that the Prince Regent was very much pleas
ed at the arrival ol Mr Sump er, the A me j
rican minister, and that he made a present
of. 1000 acres ot LuikI 10 iVIr* Pintard, the A
merican secretary, and Mr. Bilch, the on
ly American merchant at chat place. I
We learn from Portugal, by the brig
Charles that the English have from 3 to 400
transports at Lisbon and Oporto, in contmu.
al readiness to embark their troops in case
ot a deteat. The inhabitants of Lisbon are
very sanguine of success. Ali (he young
mi-n in Portugal are kept underarms ; most
ot them are well clothed, and appear dis |
posed to dispute every inch pf ground with
the enemy. The lad news received at Lis
h.ai from Spain tepreseuts the cause of the
iitriocs as having gained many advanta
