The niggard-bollixd coovnys have been detained
it Portsmoistli for six weeks past, by contrary winds.
There is scarcely an instance of such an eccuinula-
lion of shipplig in that harbour. What & heart-
breaking sight tang this proof of the great commerce
of England iffortlio the tyrant of the Continentoi ho
is Crying out for ." snips. colonies, and Coftliilercr."
On Saturday. the wind became f .ble, and the
long-detaineai convoys prepared for their departure.
The fleets for the Mediterranean, Cadiz, Portugal.
end the coast of Attie*, sailed in the morning, with
a fine larvae from S. F. The I)anewark, Neptune:
Heeri.in. Fel-unarm, and Curaturevii, were ht all
last morning with the %Vest I Alia t oisvGy. Th. v
were waiting fur auy ships that may be consign;
front the Downs. The Hon. Nlapir-Gencral W.
STEW ART. Major-General Micros, and Dr. FLR-
ayssom. are guile in the fleet titr tiortugal.

The Porcupine, Capt. ELLIOTT. with the con-
voy fur the Brazils awl the Cape of Good 1-lope, is
waiting fur order.. to mad. The IVe.rford,
Wiaelad-
tea, and Ocesm, joined the East-India convoy, on
Saturday morning, from the Downs.

Three Gottenburgh noila arrived, yemerday,
with letters and p yen to the 10th lust The
King of Swsosn's health is not )et restored, hat
he is in a state of convalescence. The Prance
uf AUGUSTENSURO, his intr►Nled successor, was ex-
pected at Gotteubnrgh on the aught of the 9th, on
his way to Stockholm.

The depooed King, the gallant Currants IV..
and Family, embarked at Carlin:rens, on the stst
last, for Stralsund.

We have received I)nteh Papers to the Bth inst.
including the Patio news to the 34.—The repudia-
tion of the Eniprefa JO4SPIIINE appears to have
been the great objettt for which the revolutionary
King. and Queens of BONAPARTE'S creation were
assenildcd at Paris. Souse of them base left that
city, rod others are upon the wing, without having
accomplished any other bissitiesi:

We were surprised at the credulity and promp-
titude with which some of oar costempararies
have announced the repeal at the Berlin Decree,
upon which the British Orders inCouncii are found-
ed. They would have es believe, that Bow* parrs
had repudiated his whole anti-commercial sys-
tem, with as much ease as he has east of his Em-
press JOSEPHIN E ; but we fear that the chaage, im-
porting to be a general relaxation, is no source of
real joy to England; but, on the contrary, an insidi-
ous plan, to widen the breach betweers her and Ame-
rica. We are told of the arrival of French Papers to
the ♦th, containing decrees for the abrogation of the
Milan and Berlin Decrees; but these French Papers
are mot given by those who quote them; and the
only decree published, or to which any authenticity
attaches, is that allowing an t %change between
America and Fr.noco, with her d. pendelocieo, it
eluding Holism', in articles necessary to both :
a trade which England cannot suffer with
impunity, and if shy. r^, ..'s it, the result is ob-
vious. We luau been lout surpFai:d at the cold.

Saturday Major-Geurral Coprom arrived( is
Downing-street, with dispatches from Lord Wet.-
'Anew*. General COTTON landed at Plymouth
on Thursday, from the Pickk brig, which made her:
passage from the Tagus iu newt; days.. The Bri-
tish army, we uuderstund, was procrediug to take
up a new position in Portugal, racier tb the north-
ward, for the purpose of opposing a strong French
force, under the command of Scouts and Klibl.itit•
MAN, which intended to enter the north of that
kiugdom. The principal French army. it was ap-
prehended, would endeavour to force the Sierra
Morena at the same time. The Spanish army,
under the Doke of rARQUE, occupies Ciudad Ro-
drigo and the mountainous tract adjaeret, and writ
be able to form a junction or co-operate with the
British troops, us may be judged necessary. The
Pickk also brought a bug of letters. The follow-
ing bran extract from one, dated in the beginning
of lest mouth, from Elvin:— •

" 1 believe it is all over with the Spaniards. The
French. 1 have been just informed. by good autho-
rity, hare advanced as tar as Waver:ark la
It is probable thissiovetneut of theirs will finer us
to quit our present cantonments. Our engineers
are busily employed in fortifying all the strong
places from Santarem on the Tap% down as far
as Lisbon, sail from thence to Ciastileg ; which
leads* us to believe that rue
is resolved to contend every inch of ground us far
us Lisbon. Lord Wet rAst•tost passed through
this town on Sunday last on his return from a-huut-
ing party at Villa Vrecioaa, *royal demesne between
this and Lisboa. The sick with the army are still
very numerous. They are drily arriving her,, and
the convalescents are sent off from this to the town
of Estremos. Illness is not confined to the soldiers
alone, the officers have coldly suffered, very few
medical Gentlemen of either the army or staff have
escaped an attack of the fever, which prevails. A
melancholy circumstance took place a day or two
ago at Torre Major ; a Lieutenant of the 39th, in
a state of delirium from fever, got out of bed,
took a razor and cut his throat, of which lie died
soon after. Mr. KIDD, the surgeon who attended
him, caught the fever, and also. in a fit of derange-
[nerd, leaped into a well and was drowned. Dr.
Wan, physician to• the forces, died maitre 48 Ai
of last month, of fever, which he caught in the
hospital here, universally regretted by every per-
son who hail the pleasure of knowing him. Seei,
ral others of the median! staff are cisisigetpealy ill."
