LATEST SPANISH NEWS AND DIRECT FROM SPAIN.
By a passenger in the ship Thomas Jefferson, Captain Morrison, from Spain, we have received intelligence from that quarter to the 23th February. We are sorry to say they are such as leave but little doubt that ere now the whole of that deluded country is in possession of the French excepting Cadiz and probably some other places in Andalusia and Granada. The Thomas Jefferson left the coast of Catalonia the 18th of February, at which time the French were advancing by the coast. The advanced guards were within an hour and a half's march of Reus, when she got under way. The following is a sketch of the operations carried on in Catalonia during the winter—In the latter part of December, the Spanish troops amounting to about 15,000 men under command of gen. Vivas, advanced by the mountains to the easternmost of Barcelona, to cut off the supplies the French might receive from France. A few leagues from Barcelona, they were attacked by a French division of very inferior force. Vivas ordered a retreat, and by his conduct so panic struck the soldiers, that they threw down their arms and retreated in the most shameful and confused manner, even as far as Tortosa on the banks of the Ebro. General Reding, the second in command, with the regiment of Swiss troops made an orderly retreat to Tarragona, which they immediately put in a state of defence, in order to withstand a siege. As the conduct of Gen. Vivas afforded strong suspicion of his being in favor of the French, General Reding assumed the chief command, and put Vivas under arrest, sent him to the General Junta to be tried. The French followed General Reding to Tarragona, and had three advanced guards within a few miles of the walls; they were constantly engaged in skirmishes. In the beginning of February the French attacked one of the out posts, which perfectly commands Tarragona; the Spaniards however were prepared, and compelled them to retreat. They were in hourly expectation of a grand attack, but as they had sufficient troops to protect the country between the coast, they were under no great apprehensions, until the French, by some sudden and well concerted movement, got possession of the mountains, and were beyond Tarragona before they were aware of it. It was reported and currently believed, that a part of the French army, which had been besieging Saragossa, had proceeded down the Ebro, & as far as Quenca—from this circumstance there is little doubt Saragossa had fallen—prodigies of valor have been performed by Palafox, and the inhabitants of that city—but the French was so very superior, that its fall had been expected for some time. If there had not been so much treachery among the Spanish officers, France would not have found Spain so easy a conquest.
Tarragona could not hold out any time—the British had sent them several ships loaded with arms and ammunition—and there were four or five frigates cruising off the coast; one of them the Impetueux. Lord Cochrane attacked the French army, as they were on the mount by the river side towards Tarragona, the French returned the fire from their flying artillery, and shot away the Impetueux's bowprit; it was understood she killed a number of French. A great number of deserters from the French army came to Tarragona in January, they were chiefly Italians, and represented the French army to be very much distressed by sickness; they also represented France and its dependencies to be suffering immensely by the total destruction of commerce. It was reported at Gibraltar that the Austrian minister at Seville had informed the Junta officially, that Austria was to declare war against France the 20th of February. Reports from the Adriatic, brought to Gibraltar, stating that the Archduke Charles had advanced with a large army in the Tyrol, seemed to confirm the report. It was also reported that Sweden had shut her ports against England. Turkey had actually made peace with England, a sloop of war carrying home the ratified treaty, was at Gibraltar when the Thomas Jefferson touched there. An insurrection had taken place at Cadiz about the 24th of Feb. in consequence of the Junta having proposed to garrison the city with Poles and Italians, said to be deserters from the French army. This circumstance excited a suspicion of the purity of the Junta's intentions, and the people assembled before the house of the governor and demanded information, they proceeded to acts of violence and killed one or two general officers who were suspected of being French partizans—the populace have chosen a Capuchin Friar for their leader. A most mysterious silence has been preserved by the General Junta, (and indeed all the provincial ones) respecting the actual state of the country, and it appeared to be their policy to keep the people as ignorant as possible. So completely were they in the dark, that in one province they knew not what was passing in the other. This conduct had for some time excited strong suspicion of their patriotism, and the people of Cadiz have demanded an account of their proceedings, and the Governor has promised that they should be satisfied.

IMPORTANT.
Since the arrival of Mr. Oakeley at Washington, Mr. Smith, Secretary of State, and Mr. Erskine, the British Minister, have been, we understand, every day engaged in discussions in relation to two points of difference between the United States and Great Britain, which, it seems, Mr. Erskine has been authorised to arrange in virtue of powers received from his government by the British sloop of war, now lying at Hampton, subject to his orders. The following Notes shew the happy result of these discussions.
(No. I.)
MR. ERSKINE TO MR. SMITH.
Washington, 17th April, 1809.
SIR,
I HAVE the honor to inform you, that I have received his Majesty's commands, to represent to the government of the United States, that his Majesty is animated by the most sincere desire for an adjustment of the differences, which have unhappily so long prevailed between the two countries, the recapitulation of which might have a tendency to impede, if not prevent an amicable understanding.
It having been represented to his Majesty's government, that the Congress of the United States, in their proceedings at the opening of the last session, had evinced an intention of passing certain laws, which would place the relations of Great Britain with the United States upon an equal footing, in all respects, with the other belligerent powers, I have accordingly received his Majesty's commands, in the event of such laws taking place, to offer, on the part of his Majesty, an honorable reparation for the aggression, committed by a British naval officer, in the attack on the United States' frigate Chesapeake.
Considering the act, passed by the Congress of the United States on the 1st of March, (usually termed the non-intercourse act) as having produced a state of equality, in the relations of the two belligerent powers, with respect to the United States, I have to submit, conformably to instructions, for the consideration of the American government, such terms of satisfaction and reparation, as his Majesty is induced to believe, will be accepted, in the same spirit of conciliation, with which they are proposed.
In addition to the prompt disavowal made by his Majesty, on being apprized of the unauthorized act, committed by his naval officer, whose recall, as a mark of the King's displeasure, from an highly important and honorable command, immediately ensued, his Majesty is willing to restore the men forcibly taken out of the Chesapeake, and, if acceptable to the American government, to make a suitable provision for the unfortunate sufferers on that occasion.
I have the honor to be,
With sentiments of the highest
Respect and consideration,
SIR,
Your most obedient humble servant,
D. M. ERSKINE.
The Hon. ROBERT SMITH, Esq. Secretary of State, &c. &c. &c.
(No. II.)
Department of State, April 17, 1809.
Sir,
I have laid before the President your note, in which you have, in the name and by the order of his Britannic Majesty declared that his Britannic Majesty is desirous of making an honorable reparation for the aggression committed by a British naval officer in the attack on the United States frigate the Chesapeake; that, in addition to his prompt disavowal of the act, his Majesty, as a mark of his displeasure, did immediately recall the offending officer from a highly important and honorable command; and that he is willing to restore the men forcibly taken out of the Chesapeake, and, if acceptable to the American government, to make a suitable provision for the unfortunate sufferers on that occasion.
The government of the United States having, at all times, entertained a sincere desire for an adjustment of the differences, which have so long and so unhappily subsisted between the two countries, the President cannot but receive with pleasure assurances, that his Britannic Majesty is animated by the same disposition, and that he is ready, in conformity to this disposition, to make atonement for the insult and aggression committed by one of his naval officers in the attack on the United States frigate the Chesapeake.
As it appears, at the same time, that, in making this offer, his Britannic Majesty derives a motive from the equality, now existing, in the relations of the United States, with the two belligerent powers, the President owes it to the occasion, and to himself, to let it be understood, that this equality is a result incident to a state of things, growing out of distinct considerations.
With this explanation, as requisite as it is frank, I am authorised to inform you that the President accepts the note delivered by you, in the name and by the order of his Britannic Majesty, and will consider the same with the engagement contained therein, when fulfilled, as a satisfaction for the insult and injury of which he has complained. But I have it in express charge from the President to state, that while he forbears to insist on a further punishment of the offending officer, he is not the less sensible of the justice and utility of such an example, nor the less persuaded that it would best comport with what is due from his Britannic Majesty to his own honor.
I have the honor to be, With the highest respect and consideration, Sir, Your most obedient servant, R. SMITH.
The Hon. David M. Erskine, Esq. Envoy Extraordinary & Minister Plenipotentiary of His Britannic Majesty.
(No. III.)
MR. ERSKINE TO MR. SMITH. Washington, April 18th, 1809.
SIR,
I have the honor of informing you, that his Majesty, having been persuaded that the honorable reparation which he had caused to be tendered for the unauthorised attack upon the American frigate Chesapeake would be accepted by the government of the United States in the same spirit of conciliation, with which it was proposed, has instructed me to express his satisfaction, should such a happy termination of that affair take place—not only
as having removed a painful cause of difference, but as affording a fair prospect of a complete and cordial understanding being re-established between the two countries.
The favorable change in the relations of his Majesty with the United States, which has been produced by the Act (usually termed the Non-Intercourse Act) passed in the last session of Congress, was also anticipated by his Majesty, and has encouraged a further hope, that a reconsideration of the existing differences might lead to their satisfactory adjustment.
On these grounds and expectations, I am instructed to communicate to the American government, his Majesty's determination of sending to the United States, an Envoy Extraordinary invested with full powers to conclude a treaty on all the points of the relations between the two countries.
In the mean time, with a view to contribute to the attainment of so desirable an object; his Majesty would be willing to withdraw his Orders in Council of January and November 1807, so far as respects the United States, in the persuasion that the President would issue a Proclamation for the renewal of the intercourse with Great Britain, and that whatever difference of opinion should arise in the interpretation of the terms of such an agreement will be removed in the proposed negotiation.
I have the honor to be with sentiments of the highest consideration and esteem,
Sir, your most obedient humble servant, D. M. ERSKINE. Hon. ROBERT SMITH, &c. &c. &c.
(No. IV.)
MR. SMITH TO MR. ERSKINE. Department of State, April 18th, 1809.
SIR,
The note, which I had the honor of receiving from you this day, I lost no time in laying before the President, who, being sincerely desirous of a satisfactory adjustment of the differences unhappily existing between Great Britain and the United States, has authorised me to assure you, that he will meet with a disposition correspondent with that of his Britannic Majesty, the determination of his Majesty to send to the United States a special Envoy, invested with full powers to conclude a treaty on all the points of the relations between the two countries.
I am further authorised to assure you that in case his Britannic Majesty should, in the mean time withdraw his orders in council of January and November 1807, so far as respects the United States, the President will not fail to issue a Proclamation by virtue of the authority and for the purposes specified in the eleventh section of the statute, commonly called the Non-Intercourse Act.
I have the honor, &c. &c. (Signed)
R. SMITH.

MR. ERSKINE TO MR. SMITH. Washington, April 19, 1809.
SIR,
In consequence of the acceptance, by the President, as stated in your letter dated the 18th inst. of the proposals made by me on the part of his Majesty, in my letter of the same day, for the renewal of the intercourse between the respective countries, I am authorised to declare that his Majesty's orders in council of January
and November 1807, will have been withdrawn as respects the United States on the 10th day of June next.
I have the honor to be,
With great respect and consideration,
Sir,
Your most obt. serv.

MR. SMITH TO MR. ERSKINE. Department of State, April 19, 1809. SIR,
Having laid before the President your note of this day, containing an assurance, that his Britannic Majesty will, on the tenth day of June next have withdrawn his Orders in Council of January and November 1807, so far as respects the United States, I have the honor of informing you that the President will accordingly, and in pursuance of the eleventh section of the statute, commonly called the Non-Intercourse act, issue a Proclamation, so that the trade of the United States with Great Britain may on the same day be renewed, in the manner provided in the said section.
I have the honor, &c. &c.
(Signed) R. SMITH.
BY THE PRESIDENT OF THE
UNITED STATES OF AMERICA. A PROCLAMATION.
WHEREAS it is provided by the 11th section of the act of Congress entitled "An act to interdict the commercial intercourse between the United States and Great Britain and France, and their dependencies; and for other purposes"—that "in case either France or Great Britain shall so revoke or modify her edicts as that they shall cease to violate the neutral commerce of the United States," the President is authorised to declare the same by proclamation, after which the trade suspended by the said act and by an act laying an Embargo on all ships and vessels in the ports & harbors of the United States and the several acts supplementary thereto may be renewed with the nation so doing. And whereas the Honorable David Montague Erskine, his Britannic Majesty's Envoy Extraordinary and Minister Plenipotentiary, has by the order and in the name of his Sovereign declared to this government that the British orders in council of January and November 1807, will have been withdrawn as respects the United States, on the 10th day of June next. Now therefore I JAMES MADISON, President of the United States, do hereby proclaim that the orders in council aforesaid will have been withdrawn on the said tenth day of June next; after which day the trade of the United States with Great Britain, as suspended by the act of Congress above mentioned and an act laying an Embargo on all ships and vessels in the ports and harbors of the United States and the several acts supplementary thereto, may be renewed.
Given under my hand and the seal of the United States, at Washington, the nineteenth day of April, (L.S.) in the year of our Lord, one thousand eight hundred and nine, and of the Independence of the United States, the thirty-third.
