otibly deseribed,as to induce a doubt of the truth
the story. It is a faithful picture of an ill gt.t-
, pantomime, by a set of strolling players, ut a
Rory barn, in England.

We have received New York Papers to the 14th
last.—No account of the arrival of the joins Adams
had been received in that city at thlt date.-. 4 re-
port preceded that Congress would he convened in
the prevent month, and that Mr. PININEY would
be recAled.—A
.rupture with France was consi-
dered inevitable, and our Minister. Mr. JACKSON,
it i. said, had received the honours of a public din-
ner at Boston.

We this day resume our extracts from the Spanish
payers brought by the Cadiz Mail which an ived on
Wednesday. Among the documents which we hove
estaacted is a Royal Order, convoking the extraor.
miry and general Cortes of the kingdom in the
oath of August nests and commanding that the
esnon ,hall commence as soon us the major part
f the Members of that Body shall hove assembled
u the Isle of Leon. Another public instrument of
he Council of Regency declares a paper, purport-
•o4 to be , I{,,yal Order respecting the commeice
ti:th America, void and Nugatory, and a third from
the Superior Junta of Catalonia, inflicts heavy
penalties on those who shall be discovered trutficking
in estates belonging to natives, which, by the suc-
cessful progress of the French arms, have devolved
into tho possession of the enemy.
All the accounts received by the latest posts from
Cataloitia, Arragon, VJencia, and Murcia, are fa-
vourable : the dates frost thence are as recent as
to the (oh, 7th, rub, and itth of haat month. It
is asserted, that the inhabitants of those Provinces
are noolved rather to die titan to submit to French
tyranny, arid that they have iiirre Lied their eicer.
tions to repel the troops of the Usurper. The va-
liant Catalano, we are told, have recovered from the
'momentary idiom occasioned by the surrender of
Lerida, and are prepared to take ample vengeance
for the outrages which violence and perfidy had
committed. It is stated, that the enemy was disap-
pointed in his expectations to enterM &psi nenza with-
out resistance, and that the courage and fidelity of
the Spaniards in that neighbourhood had shone
forth sith the same splendour by which they were
distinguished at llo,talrich. It is added, that the
skirmishing parties in the kingdom of Murcia had
swept off tie enemy in various situations, and that
all the armed leod;es of tlatt description were ex-
hibiting through the country prodigies of valour.
All the letters from Cadiz are written in u high
tone of coofideuer, as to their meatus of resisting
the French. Tim 111041 perfect security was felt.
• Provisions were plentiful ; and succours daily ar-
riving. Flour, which, on the 14th ult. was at QS
shillings a barrel, had, at the date of these ac-
cants, fallen to eieteen shillings. The intelli-
gence from the interior, and particularly from La
Mancha, was very favourable. Wherever the
Preach appeared in small bodies, they were always
attacked, and generally cut off. Their convoys, in
consequence of the uncommon vigilance rod acti-
vity of the Spanish
.irregulars and peasantry, were
obliged m be protected by triple escorts ; and these
were often Made-quote to sae theme to their desti-
nation.

On Wednesdiv, previous to attending the Le-

these gentlemen will embark on board the Lion

We understand that six Banks in the West of
&slam: have stopped paymeot, in consequence
of the bankruptcy of Messrs. CRICK MOOD and Cu.
On Monday a iletudiment of the 9.3:1 Light Dra-
goons, u also a number of sick, vrtiiiisiled, and in-
valid soldiers, from our army in Purtuoil. were

There were several other trait.ports which arrived

died on their passage by a dreadful , brought
ou by close contilieuient nu board the hulks at

number of deserters from the French army.
The expedition front Cadiz to Ronda. mentioned

to private letters, to be part of a combined plait fur
raising the siege of Cadiz. It consisted of about

The ehensy decamped to rapidly, that not o.ie pri-
