And on the third day will breakfast at the Half-Way house and dine at Petersburg.
Returning, will dine at the Half-Way house and lodge at Richmond. Early in the morning, breakfast at the Oaks, dine at the Bowling Green, and lodge at Fredericksburg. Next morning, will breakfast at Stafford court house, dine at Occoquan, and lodge at Alexandria. The owners on this line too, have to request that passengers will be as moderate as possible in the quantity of their baggage, as any thing more than a small trunk or parcel which will go within the body of the stage will be an extra charge. The Proprietors. August 24.

Journal of the attacks on Sarragossa.
ARRAGON, June 26.
Since the 23d, when the French suffered great loss, gen. Lefebvre has retired to E-pila. He was attacked there by the marquis De Lagan and a large force of Arragonese, and he would have been totally defeated, but for the flight of two divisions of peasants. He lost, however, 1000 men.
June 27.
Gen. Verdier arrived to reinforce the enemy with about 2400 men, cavalry and infantry, and some Portuguese. They attacked Sarragossa and Monte Torrero. They were repulsed with the loss of 800 men killed, a great number wounded, six pieces of artillery, five carts of ammunition, drums, musical instruments, &c. The loss on our side was much less. An express arrived with intelligence of the approach of 7000 Valencians with 26 pieces of cannon. These troops were ordered to remain in reserve and concealment, to fall in upon the enemy the next day when engaged.
June 28.
The enemy renewed the attack in the morning on Torrero and the city, but were bravely repulsed, losing nearly the whole of their cavalry, and much of their infantry. At Torrero some injury was suffered by the retreat of the artillery, through the treachery of the commander. The batteries thus became silent at the most interesting time. The Valencians arrived, though rather late, but they could not dislodge the enemy from Torrero.
From thence the city was battered, and in the night a powder magazine exploded, by which 14 houses were destroyed and about 100 persons killed. At this moment the enemy presented themselves in three places, hoping to be able to enter, and the column which attempted the entrance of Overtamaqueda in front of the powder magazine was totally destroyed. It was resolved that all the French resident at Arragon, with their families, should be made prisoners.
June 29.
The commandant of artillery, who sold the batteries of Torrero, was drummed out and shot. A person was hanged, who was detected taking letters to Murat, informing him that the three gates were sold. This day the enemy was beat as usual.
June 30.
The fire was continued with great loss to the French.
July 1.
The fire was continued, and did not cease till ten in the morning, being 36 hours without interruption. Many of the enemy fell, and a great number of cars collected for the wounded.
July 2.
The taking of prisoners and the bombardment followed. Three fell in the Pilau, but did no damage worthy of notice, neither did any other that fell in the city.
July 3.
From morning till night the firing did not cease. Our troops shewed great ardor.
July 4.
Yesterday Torrero was reconquered. The French lost all their officers. Their cavalry was reduced to thirteen horses, and the infantry completely ruined.
July 5.
We have learned that the wounded could not be accommodated at the convents or guard-houses at Tudela, and that they were removed in cars to Pampeluna. Of two captains of artillery who were wounded one is dead. Thirty Chasseurs who were in search of provisions, were disarmed at Tausto.

Active exertions were making in Austria to organize the militia; but it was supposed that its object was to reduce the number of regular troops, and to diminish the expenses of government.

PARIS, August 1.
Numerous reports have been put in circulation relative to the affairs of Spain and Portugal, favorable to the English. Their own contradictions prove their falsehood. It is true the English have endeavored, according to their usual customs, to foment trouble amongst our allies, but they have failed in the attempt to possess themselves of the ports and fleets of Spain. For the latest authentic accounts assure us that they have not obtained possession of a single port or squadron in Spain; nor have they succeeded better in Portugal. They have even dated to make propositions to the Russian admiral in the Tagus; but they were rejected with contempt and indignation. We hasten to lay this important information before our readers.
August 2.
An Austrian courier passed thro' Nantz 26th ult. from Paris for Vienna.
August 3.
Some Journals have circulated a report, on the authority of the Bayeruth Gazette, that an attack was made on the Pacha of Widdan by the troops of the Grand Vizier; they suppose that the Sublime Porte, suspecting the integrity of the Pacha had given orders to the Grand Vizier to march against him; and at the close of an action in which the Ottoman troops had suffered great loss, they were compelled to retreat precipitately to Adrianople. These reports are contradicted by letters from Widdan of the 29th June; when the most perfect tranquillity prevailed on that frontier. The Servians and the Turks were alike peaceable, and the Russians in quiet repose in their cantonments.
His imperial highness the Grand Duke of Berg was at Auch the latter end of July.
August 5.
They write from Perpignan, that the culture of cotton succeeds exceedingly well in the Eastern Pyrenees. A small plantation in Salanqua, near that city, was planted on the 25th April last, which is now 14 inches high. The proprietor has prospects of as abundant a crop as was ever reaped in Malta.
August 6.
The Publiciste states upon the authority of foreign journals that Trieste and Fiuma are to be evacuated by the Austrians, and are to be occupied by the troops of some great power. This false report is circulated by perfidious men, in order to exasperate and embarrass a great power, and involve them in difficulty by inducing injudicious steps.
Some journals have stated that questions of importance are agitating between the courts of Vienna and Paris. This is false; we have no points to discuss with the Austrian court. If that government be well advised, it will curtail its expenses; they will know that levies EN MASSE are destructive to all governments, particularly a government which circulates paper money.
It is said that some American vessels laden with colonial produce have arrived in Austrian ports, having been convoyed by English frigates. This is true; but in every instance these traders have found means to elude the vigilance of the officers of government; and the court of Vienna has taken steps to put a stop to this fraudulent traffic, and to enforce the principles which they had adopted against all commerce with England.
His imperial highness the Grand Duke of Berg [general Murat] has arrived here.
August 7.
The Ottoman Porte has exempted from export duty cotton sent to France, when accompanied by a certificate from the French ambassador.
The Dutch journals mention, that baron Rosencranz, envoy extraordinary from the king of Denmark has gone to Bayonne, in
order to present to his majesty the emperor and king the insignia of the order of the Elephant.
Papi, the missionary, who has been several years in India, assures us, that notwithstanding the official lists published at London, the whole English force in India does not exceed 16,000 Europeans and 60,000 natives; and that with this force they are obliged to keep in subordination eighty millions, of whom 30,000,000 are English subjects, and the other 50,000,000 are vassals of England.
An imperial decree has been published, in which it is enacted, that the (former) department of Taro is annexed to the departments beyond the Alps, confided to the government of prince Borghese.
The Paris Journal mentions that M. de Barral, archbishop of Tours, is nominated to the diocese of Paris.
August 10.
On the 5th inst. M. le Comte de Meris passed through Nancy, on his way from Paris to Vienna; and on the same day a Turkish courier passed through that city on his way to Constantinople.
August 13.
The ball intended to have been given by the city of Paris on the 15th inst. in honor of the emperor's birth day, has been postponed to Sunday the 21st.
The Journal de l'Empire, says, that the Arch-Chancellor will repair to Germany, to organise the Rhenish Confederation, connecting the administration of the French empire with that of the allied States. It is said in it, as an apology, that this news is circulating in Germany; but sensible men will say that news copied from foreign bulletins or journals, acquires more repute and that the object of it is to excite jealousy and hatred against France.
His imperial majesty the emperor and king arrived at Toulouse on the 24th of July, and met with the most superb reception. We are assured that his majesty, who, as it has already been announced, is to reach Bordeaux on the 30th, will go hence to visit the port of Rochefort, and will repair afterwards to Rambouillet, which place he will arrive at on the evening of the 14th of August, and will enter the capital on the 15th. The princess Borghese, and the grand duchess of Berg, have preceded his majesty to Paris. We are assured that immediately after the return of the emperor to Paris, news of the highest importance to nations will be published. In the mean while, what we may announce with the most certainty is the taking possession of the great duchy of Berg in the name of the emperor Napoleon, by the counsellor of state Buegnat, who set off a few days ago for that purpose from Paris to Dusseldorf. It appears that prince Joachim is called to govern larger states. Public opinion says he will succeed king Joseph on the throne of Naples.
DUSSELDORF, August 1.
Counsellor of state Buegnat, arrived here on the 30th ult. with Mr. Pepin de Belleisle. On the same day he received the visit of the chief authorities. The next day he took possession of the grand duchy of Berg, in the name of the emperor of the French, and received the oath of allegiance of the magistrates. Since the inhabitants of the great duchy were to lose a beloved prince, nothing more glorious and happier could happen to them, than to re-enter under the dominion of His Imperial and Royal Majesty.
VIENNA, July 25.
Their imperial majesties were to set off to-day from Baden, to return to Luxemburg, where they will stay till their departure for Hungary. The states of Lower Austria met on the 19th instant, to deliberate on the levy of the national militia.
PETERSBURG, July 9.
On the 6th the French ambassador, M. de Caulincourt, gave a splendid dinner to the diplomatic corps, at which our minister for foreign affairs, count de Romanzoff, was present.
His majesty has issued orders to reinforce the army in Wallachia, by twenty five thousand men.
By an imperial ukase the commandants of all ports blockaded by the English or Swedes, have been ordered to permit no vessel with a cargo to depart during the blockade. This has been necessary to put a stop to the exportation of produce, by means of neutrals, to England, when ostensibly destined for friendly ports, as the enemy have boasted of being able to trade in the Baltic, in this indirect way.
FRANKFORT, July 29.
It appears that the levy of national militia, ordered by the emperor of Austria, has caused much dissatisfaction in some provinces. In Carniole particularly, violent means have been resorted to, which excited the indignation of the inhabitants: the arch duke John, who was at Trieste, has been obliged formally to disapprove these proceedings.
The senate of Hamburg has suppressed two newspapers in that city; viz. Les Melanges du Nord , and La Bourse de Hamburg . These Journals contained articles contrary to the interests of the continental powers.
The Austrian ambassador at the court of Holland, has been recalled; a successor has not been named.
STUTGARD, July 14.
The day before yesterday passed through here, M. Garonne, secretary to the French legation, on his way to Paris; a French courier from Paris to Munich; and Count Apponi, Austrian secretary of legation, on his way to Vienna.
COPENHAGEN, July 22.
It is reported that the Russian army in Finland has defeated the Swedes under General Klingspore, and 12,000 Swedes made prisoners. If this news is true, we shall soon have details from St. Petersburg. [The accounts through England, from Copenhagen, one day later were very different.]
An English frigate of 42 guns, appeared on the 19th, before Chusanstadt, in Norway; she fired a few shots into the city, but the batteries soon compelled her to depart.
A new camp of Danish troops is forming in Zealand.
Former accounts of a naval engagement between the Russians and Swedes, near Svenborg, has not been confirmed.
VIENNA, July 31.
A proclamation just published, announces that the levy of national militia in Lower Austria was completed. The officers are most of the old establishment, experienced veterans.
BY THE LAST MAIL.
NEW-YORK, October 10,
Latest Foreign News.
Last evening arrived at this port the British ship Argo in 41 days from Liverpool. The editors of the N. York Gazette have received by her London papers to the 27th of August (one week later than by the Flora) from which they extract the following
IMPORTANT NEWS.
LONDON, August 19.
Some very favorable reports prevailed in the city this day among the American merchants, respecting certain overtures which have been made from the government of the United States, leading to an adjustment of differences with this country. A messenger from America arrived at the house of the American minister, at a late hour last night, with dispatches, brought by the Hope schooner from Virginia, after the short passage of 23 days. The substance of them was laid before his majesty's ministers; and Mr. Pinckney, has been invited to a conference previously to their being taken into consideration by the privy council. The Hope, without coming into Falmouth, proceeded immediately for Havre-de-Grace, with dispatches for general Armstrong, which are said to contain instructions decisive respecting the conditions on which the present relative situation of the two countries can be preserved. Those received in London are believed to be of a similar character.
August 22.
We were well informed, in stating that the dispatches received from the Baltic were rather of a favorable description than otherwise. By way of Heligoland we have received accounts of the armaments of Russia, and from Sweden we are possessed of information which we consider as decisive as to the objects of them. A letter from a British officer, dated Helsingburgh the 9th, announces that sir James Saumarez has received from Russia and Denmark, communications of a pacific character, and that he was about to proceed to Finland to have an interview with his Swedish majesty on the subject of them.
In regard to Austria and Russia a treaty for the mutual delivery of deserters, has been followed by several commercial arrangements, which although unimportant in themselves, are at the present moment, of interest, as they shew the increasing amity between the two empires.
Murat, as we suspected, has been raised to the kingly dignity, and succeeds Joseph in the kingdom of Naples. This event took place on the 1st, and in the proclamation which Murat published on his accession, he promises to govern according to the constitution established by his brother. What is to become of Joseph?
August 23.
The following bulletin was circulated among the friends of administration:—

ADMIRALTY OFFICE, Aug 23 Two o'clock.
A telegraphic message is just arrived from Yarmouth, announcing that several Spanish troops, that were in the British Islands, have surrendered to Admiral Bates, and are now in our possession in the Island of Langland, in the Great Belt. Since the above bulletin was circulated, Lieut. Hitchens, of the Superb, has arrived at the Admiralty, with dispatches from Admiral Bates, confirming the gratifying intelligence, that 10,000 of the Spanish troops, in Funen, Langland, Laaland, and Lolland, under the command of the Marquis de Romana, have rescued themselves from the French and Danish yoke, and have been conveyed by the British fleet to Langland, with all their arms, artillery, &c. They have taken possession of the Island of Langland, and are to remain there until they can be removed to their country. The Dunes have disarmed 5000 Spaniards who were in Zealand. The Spanish troops thus nobly liberated themselves, consists of the flower of the army; they had received full information of the atrocities which Bonaparte has committed in Spain, and are now with ardor to join the ranks of their countrymen.
SURRENDER OF TRANQUEBAR. The following letter from an officer belonging to the 14th regiment, reached us this morning. We need hardly add, that this Danish settlement is situated on the Ganges, on the coast of Coromandel, about 140 miles S. of Fort St. George.
"Tranquebar, Feb. 19, 1808. "We embarked on the 10th inst. at Mass, on board his majesty's ship Russell, and sailed at day break the following morning. On the afternoon of the 12th we reached our destination, the mouth of the river, and of the town of Tranquebar. The place was immediately summoned, and articles of capitulation were signed at 10 P. M. by Lieut. Col. Watson and Capt. Cadfield, on the part of the British, and the deputy governor on the part of the Danes. The Danish companies of our regiment took possession of the place on the morning of the 13th. But as the outward bound ship, under admiral Drury, appeared off shore as we were landing, we expect to be immediately relieved, and to proceed to Scutia."
August 25. We have seen some private letters from the continent on which we place the most implicit reliance, which state, that a war between France and Austria appears inevitable, and that Bonaparte is making all the necessary preparation for the immediate commencement of a campaign.—[Sun.]
A rumor was circulated at Hamburg, that an engagement had taken place in the Baltic between the British and Russian fleets, in which the latter were defeated. Permission has been granted for vessels to trade between America and the West Indies, until further arrangements. STOCKS.—Consols 65 1-8.
August 26. Intelligence was yesterday received of the condemnation of the following American vessels at Copenhagen, for a violation of the British decree—the Meridian, Lord; Live Oak; and Jenima and Fanny. Letters from Rotterdam of the 22d inst. report the rumors of approaching hostilities between France and Austria. It is believed that Russia and Prussia are to take part against France.
The Austrian minister has left Amsterdam, and returned to Vienna, but he has taken with him all the ministers of his mission. France is aware of the approaching storm. The revolution in Spain has convulsed the Northern Powers—all is in motion. The emperor Alexander is indignant at the conduct of Napoleon to Spain.
LIVERPOOL, August 27. A Long Gazett extraordinary arrived here yesterday containing the important information that a Spanish army of 10000 men which has for some time been pent up in Denmark, has put itself under the protection of the British, and escaped from the power of the French. The soldiers have for the present been landed in a large island of the Great Belt, now in the power of the British, where to wait the arrival of transports to conduct them to their own country. This detachment consists of some of the best of the Spanish regular troops; and as their ardor in the patriotic cause is undoubted, and their discipline perfected by long experience and the instructions of the best French officers, they must prove an acquisition to their countrymen, of incalculable importance. We hope the utmost exertions will be used to convey them to Spain with all possible expedition.
To those who are aware of that consummate sagacity in Bonaparte, which never overlooks the smallest affairs while he is in the most eager pursuit of the greatest, his unaccountable neglect of this Spanish army will appear an astonishing deviation from his usual conduct. That, after being well acquainted with the state of affairs in Spain he should suffer such a force to remain near the sea coast, open to the communication and access of the English, appears quite inconceivable. It is so much out of his usual track of conduct, that some politicians, who are not in general apt to be very sanguine, begin to flatter themselves, that as no human abilities are equal to every possible exigency, Bonaparte is himself at last in a situation which embarrasses him. They would willingly hope that the novelty of the resistance which he has experienced in one quarter, and the variety of objects which demand his attention in others, are at length beginning to disturb his hitherto unshaken firmness, and to diminish the usual resources of his mind. It perhaps would be too much to indulge such an expectation; but certainly the last two months have produced a train of events, succeeding each other in one consistent tenor, of a nature so different to the usual course of Bonaparte's career, that the most desponding cannot resist an impulse of hope.
It is at length confessed in the continental journals, that the commotions in Spain, demand some attention, and the French armies are in that country, it is said, to be augmented to 150,000 men. If the French ruler sends thither the whole of his forces, they will be insufficient for the purpose, if the Spaniards do not relent in their ardor, nor relax in their efforts to resist their invaders. The French may conquer towns and occupy positions, but the country at large can never be subdued which urged them to take up arms. On the countenance of this active and unconquerable principle, wholly depends the ultimate issue of this mighty contention. The accounts from the other parts of the Continent are still more varied than ever, though the Paris papers represent all such reports as groundless; but according to the Hamburg Correspondent (whose sources of information are the most copious and authentic of any on the continent) the French troops are every where in motion. Camps of exercise are ordered to be formed at Hohenlohe, in Bavaria, and Monte Chiuso, in Venetian Frioul. Great activity is employed in repairing and provisioning the fortress on the right bank of the Rhine, and other parts of Germany; field hospitals are ordered, ammunition preparing, and in short that bustle prevails in all the military departments which generally indicates an approaching campaign. The Hamburg paper differs much from the other continental journals respecting the spirit by which the subjects of the emperor Francis are actuated. In every part of the Austrian states it is said the zeal of the inhabitants anticipated the wishes of government, and the materials of armies are collected almost as soon as the orders for making the preliminary arrangements are issued. The organization of the militia and the levy-en-masse go on, notwithstanding the avowed dissatisfaction of the court of Paris.
It is not alone in the countries contiguous to the Rhine that the exertions of the French are vigorously employed. The same activity manifests itself in Poland. They are fortifying the right bank of the Vistula with as much industry as if they expected an immediate attempt on the part of the Russians to force the passage.
PLYMOUTH, August 23. Arrived the Nimrod cutter, from off Brest, with dispatches; she brings intelligence that a division of the Brest squadron consisting of four sail of the line, three frigates, and six brigs, lately made an attempt to escape from the harbor; but the British squadron being apprized of their intentions, pursued them, and drove one of the frigates on shore, which was set fire to and destroyed; the others returned to the harbor.
At the solicitation of a number of our country friends, we shall commence, on the 9th of this month, the publication of a paper for the country, three times a week, which will contain all the matter and advertisements published in the daily paper. The price will be FIVE DOLLARS per annum. Such of our present patrons as reside on the route where the mail goes but once a week, will be furnished with the country paper in lieu of the daily one, unless ordered otherwise.

Extract of a letter from a gentleman in New York, to his friend in this town dated 11th OCTOBER, 1808.
"We are all in the greatest consternation at the capture or stoppage of the British packet by the Chesapeake frigate, about nine miles below, at what is called the quarantine ground, on Staten Island shore. Report is busy, some saying she has one or two hundred thousand dollars on board. The packet was dropping down, and when she came near the Chesapeake was boarded by a lieutenant and requested to shew her clearance, which was not complied with—the boarding officer then told him he could not proceed to sea and directed the packet to be anchored under the guns of the frigate, which was done. The captain came up to town last night to consult with the consul, he said if the wind was fair to day he would weigh his anchor and if they fired at him he would sink his mails and deliver up the ship."
Extract of a letter from an American gentleman at Malta, to a mercantile house in this town, dated 16th July, 1808.
"I have just seen a circular from T. Lear, esq. to our consul here, dated Algiers 20th June, the subject of which is, that the Dey has formally made known to all the consuls at Algiers, that the Ports of the Regency of Tunis are blockaded by his cruisers, and that all vessels found attempting to enter, will be captured and considered as good prizes."
REPARATION FOR THE ATTACK ON THE CHESAPEAKE!!
The facts stated in the following letter may be relied upon, and we venture to say will not be contradicted by our administration. —U. S. Gaz.
LONDON, 20th Aug. 1808.
"Dear sir, "Finding that the negotiation between Mr. Rose and your government has led to various misrepresentations, and that the American people are yet wholly uninformed of the terms or reparation which G. Britain was prepared to offer for the attack on the Chesapeake, I think it proper to communicate to you the following sketch of those terms, that your countrymen may be enabled to judge of the disposition of his majesty's government to make honorable amends for the unwarranted outrage committed by admiral Berkeley."
After expressing his majesty's deep regret for the transaction, and his unqualified acknowledgement of the principle that ships of war of neutrals are to be free from search, Mr. Rose was empowered on the part of G. Britain—
To reimburse all the expenses of repairing the Frigate— To restore the men taken from her— To grant pensions to the wounded—and to the wives and families of the killed."
The Executive of Virginia, have appointed Nathaniel Pope, Esq. of Hanover, Treasurer of that state, to supply the vacancy occasioned by the death of the late Treasurer, Gen. Wm. Moseley.
DIED, at Dumfries, on the 9th instant, Mrs. MARY COOK, whose latter years had been appropriated to the cultivation of the mind, morals and taste, of the female sex. Ye maidens whom it was her task to rear Thy young ideas, drop a bitter tear. To worth like her's, a tribute's justly due, Weep o'er her grave, and sweetest flowers strew. The card'nal virtues to a Cook were given, To grace this earth, ensure a place in Heaven. Her trials end, severe she felt the rod— Now meek and humble goes to meet her GOD. T.

ANCHOR TAVERN, GEORGE-TOWN.
Beef Stake and Oyster House, REVIVED, BY GEORGE PITT.
FROM the repeated and sincere solicitations of his real friends, and other transient, respectable characters, who visited his house when occupying the above tavern, he with much pleasure, informs them, that it has been completely repaired and improvements added, so as to make it comfortable and convenient to the weary traveller—retired apartments for the philosopher, or man of business—an extensive view of that beautiful island belonging to General John Mason, river Potomac, &c. A copious and elegant garden, with rural and public walks and views, for the desponding lover to meditate on the object of his affections—and the man of pleasure to pass away many a dull and tedious hour. And its being in the centre of the town, near the banks and other offices, and the nearest tavern to commercial characters, renders his situation more convenient to the planter, farmer, and man of business; and gives it a decided preference over any other—to which add the keeping of good and attentive servants; the best of regulations in his house; liquors equal to any in the Union, good beds, wholesome diet, moderate charges, and a determination to use every exertion in his power to give general satisfaction, he flatters himself that he shall meet with that support from a generous and discerning public which his attention and merit may entitle him to.
Gentlemen, and those who act as such, may be accommodated with Oyster Suppers, at sixty-two and half cents each, at any hour in the night, in parties not less than four in number—If less, they will be charged with four suppers.
As the ensuing races are expected to be more respectable than formerly, all gentlemen sportsmen may depend on being accommodated with good stabling, careful hostlers, the best of hay, horse feed of every description, and every attention paid to their nags, mules, &c.
Private stables for two or three running horses, with accommodations for grooms, &c. G. P. October 12
