A letter from a Gentleman in a high and respect-
able situation at I.ishon, states, " that the insttr-
reCtion near Bilboa was not the momentary resistance
to any new ads of oppression on the part of the
Spanish Government, but the result of a deep laid
plan to effeCt a revolution in Spain, similar to that
in France. There, as every where else upon the
Continent, are numerous, unprincipled, and ambi-
tious men, who, seeing the success of French rebels,
and encouraged by the example of the fortunate
Corsican, believe themselves destined to be the
BON APARTES of their respeCtive countries, to usurp
the thrones of their Sovereigns, and to support, like
him, their usurpations, by accomplices, by gaols,
racks, and se. (folds. An Admiral and a Ge-
neral G—, ate reported to be the nominat chiefs of
the li:eta of the B.scayans. It was meditated so
long ago es when Ikea- IEN BONAP ANTE was Ambas.
sailor in Spain, in ISO t, who then procured for the
firmer the command of the fleet at Cadiz. the
peace with England, which soon followed that be-
tween France and Spain with Portugal, caused it to
be laid aside until a more convenient season. The
Cann of Madrid was well aware of a conspiracy
against it, supported by France. This was one of
the principal causes of the many pecuniary and pnli-
tint! racriflces it has made to continue its neutrality.
Thor would not, however. have prevented the
!Int-swots in Spain from already sharing the destiny
of those in France. had not a family disagreement
among the Boa AAAAA ts procured them a respite.
It is reported that the Spanish Government are in
possession of the whole plan for effeCling a revolu-
tion, and a change of dynasty in Spain as well as in
Naples, and that LIMIER Bow 04YAkTII is destined to
the throne of the former, and Jose, It BON aaaaa
to that of the latter kingdom. The Spanish conspi.
rators had accredited agents at Paris, whom the
Spanish Ambassador there, Admiral Ca AVIN A, has
demanded to have delivered op, bat, who, watwith-
standing the rijra-ts and orgrehts of the French Police,
have note/4 disappeared. Among the papers in the
pwer of the Court of Madrid, is said, to be a letter
tram TALLEY RA ND to the rebels. telling them,
that for tererai maw's:, the Emperor of the Fatale H
desires them to postpoue their efforts for the
of their hied' until a conquest of, or a peace with,

Great Britain: In Portugal and in Spain it is One-
rally believed that BONAP A R CE meditates an over-
throw of all thrones occupied by Bou axioms, and to
give them to his brothers and other relatives. The
appointments of the Military Ambassadors, Boon-
NON V11.1.E and I....sties, to the Courts of Madrid and
Lisbon, is thought not to he unconneaci with this
conspiracy. Copies of the discovered papers are re-
ported to have been sent to Naples, Vienna, and St.
Pi:tersburgh."

We received, last night, we believe exchttivel,,,
some more of the small Paris Papers up to the Beth.
They contain a variety of particulars respelling the
ensuing Coronation of the Corsica Upstart. The
expences upon the occasion are enormous, particu-
larly those incurred by presents to his visitors, among
whom we find many new names. It is curious to
see these petty Princes flattered by gifts paid for by
the plunder of their native countries, or the sale of
their inheritance.

The Gazette of last night, as we anticipated, con-
tains an order by His MAJESTY in Council, for pr.:).
toguing the Parliament from the e7th instant, to
the 3d of January, 1805 ; and Desiring that the
Lotto Ctta,ct:u.os of Great Britain shall cause a
commission to be prepared for that purpose. '1

In the month of January last, a large French
schooner sailed from Rangoon, in the East Indies,
bound to France, having on board a valuable cargo
of bale goods, that had been landed there from a
ship tinder Danish colours, which vessel had sailed
again with a cargo of rice for Madras. The schoo-
ner was to touch at the Isle of France for her fiord
orders. Another French vessel was tilting out there
to carry a cargo of the same kind to France, which,
it was understood, the Danish ship would in like
manner bring from Madras under Danish colour:,
as tyon as she could dispose of her rice at that
Presidency.

We learn, that the particulars of this tt .t:Tic and
condn.i of neutr.tl vessels bad been fully dLclosed
to the Governor General in India, who, no doubt,
has by this time token such measures as will effec-
tually prevent a repetition of this illicit tr-de.

Accounts from Bombay state, that a violent
gain of wind had been experimced to the N'irthward
of that Presidency, iu which, we are sorry to learn,
several boats were lost, amongst which, one horn
Baroach, bound to Bombay, having on board Mr.
Joitm Tuasaa, of the Gazette Office, with a crew
and passengers, amountisz to upwards of one hun-
dred people.
Several of the packets. containing letters sent by
this conr..yAnce, had beam ..vasited on shore, and
forwarded agreeably to their dirations.
Previous to the last China fleet leaving Canton, a
Spanish frigate had arrived there from Manilla with
a very considerable quantity of specie on board, be-
longing to the Spanish government.
The Captain stated, that a vet y valuable Spanish
galleon was to sail from Manilla in February or
March last for China.

The iimds, f',.s ICS Y, from Dantvic, it arrived
in the Humber ; she was brought to on the 24
inst. about 15 leagues from Flarnbarough Head, by
a French privateer, mounting 12 guns, supposed to
he commanded by BL AC K 34 AK.
The Chadott., ERICK, from Bristol for Einbden,
is on shore near Lymington.
The George,ll,lt Et 4, from Dantaic fur Lintl
has foundered at sea.

We tear that the gales of wind, which have pre-
vailed for the lar. tive days, have done much damage
upon our coast, particularly upon the Eastetn part
of it. Our letters fr.im and Folkston state,
that several vessels have been driven on shore—and
we apprehend that considerable injury will be found
to have been done. between Yarmouth and Leith.
Among the claims to Peerages espeMed to he
made to Parliament, in the coarse of the nest Ses-
sion, will be those of Mr. JOHNSTON to the Barony
of Annalkdale ; of Sr Cam. Bishop to the Barony
of Zouch ; and of Ensign BOOTH, of the sith Re-
giment, to the 13aneny of Dalemere.
General Cut:Mulct., we are concerned state,
on Wednesday last letF Brighton, for medical ad.
vice, under very severe indisposition. So impaired
were his intelleas by the disorder, that he had lost
all recollcaion of his brother, when he attended at
Brighton, to see him.
General LENSOT, we understand, has been ap-
pointed to the command of the district, during Ge-
noa' Caw ac ILL'. indisposition.
. .

Lust Thursday evening a French logger was ob-
served very near in shore off Brighton, when the
battery nuns (tor the more effeCtually manning of
which, (,en. Listens. ordered a detachment of the
Artillery from the barrack.) were cpened upon her,
which occasioned her to sheer off, and without hay-
ing made any capture.
it Gtonoe Real noto arrived on the With ult. at
Hanover; and, atter a lung interview with Marshal
kiesttaoolrc. %Vas sent under a Strong escort to
Paris. The Senate of Hamburgh have tnanitested
the utmost regret at the violation committed upon
their territories, and have taken every step which it
was in their power to take, to obtain Sir GEOR G E'S
release. They sent Marshal R to..tersoorre, who
informed them, that it was out of his power to libe-
rate him, the orders for his arrest having been trans-
mitted from Paris.

The Gazette of last night contains an Order of
Council, continuing a former Order, permitting the
importation, for three months, horn the rich i ist.
of the various kials of provisions mentioned in the
said Order, duty free, either in British ships, or
ships belonging to persons of any state in amity scith
His Maus TT, without payment of any duty: pro.
viJed a due entry be made of all such articles,
with the proper OAcers of the Customs, in :he port
where the same shall lie imported.
