Th.? Spaniards haring constructed an additional

this morning. • and soon after. the Spanish were
hoisted on board them. The French shire, I un-

wonted them for their own the; nor has there been

in tie hands of the French and the subjects of the
Prince Regent.
After the Stmt.:anis had delivered the forts into
the custody of the Portuguese, and the national
colours were every where hoisted, the French a-re
again able to establish their authority, in conse-
quence oi.the weak and undetermined measures of
the Governor, Louis D'Osiveira, who is now con.
tined as a traitor, and maintained it till the ilk's,
the day of Corpus Christi, a great national festival,
when it had been usual for the Portuguese regi•-
. inents to attend with colours flying. The Go-
vernor, D'Oliveira, in consequence of orders from
Juuot, attempted to establish the French flag in-
stead of the Portuguese at the procession. This
violent attack on the national custom drew forth
the murmurs of the populace to so great a degree,
that an attempt to compromise on threpart of the
Governor had no effect; and on the isth. in the
evenin.r, the day before my arrival here, they were
excited to such a degree of fury, that, counte-
nanced by the, priests, the people rode ea seam,
broke open the depots, and supplied tlwroselves
with twenty-bee thousand stand of arms, and, to-
gether with the regulars. formed a most deter-
mined and enthusiastic army. From this moment
all French authority ceased ; and every man, either
French, or suspected of being inclined to the
French interest, was arrested.

The Bishop of Oporto was elected u the new
Governor, wart en army of twenty thousand men
sent to meet the French, who had advanced. to the
amount of nine hundred, within six leagues of
Oporto.
The enthusiasm has communicated from one to
the other, and the Portuguese provinces of Tralos,

tention to go to St. Andero immediately, and afford
every assistance in my power to the loyal inhabit-
ants, and bring off any British subjects that might
wish to come away, iu the present uncertain statc'of
the country ; and I had intelligence that the Frviiel:
frigate, in passage, accompanied by several
boats, was expected to make a descent on that pint
of the coast ; owing to the strong easterly winds,
and long calms, 1 dad not get there till the I lit. The
signal-post displayed a fla of truce, which was an-
swered by both ships. the Captain of the port,
Don \lucent° Camino. -ame ou board ; he told us
the French army were sows expected to make an at-
tack ou the pass in the inouutains that guarded the
approach to the town; he invited us to anchor iii
Sardenero Bay, which we did at five p. ia. Until
he had made his report to the Bishop, who was the
present Governor, he wished us not to laud. l'ijo
lemt returning by one o'clouk the next day, I
comiuded sonie sudden attack or unexpected e eut
must :mace taken place. In the afternoon, a brig
came out of the harbour, full of people of all

that the Fret eh were advancing. I immediately

Daly returned with certain information that the
French army had gained the pass, amid had halted
only a few miles from the town, and were expected
to enter that night or next duty.
('..plain Daly also made every possible observe-
tien. suet had himself spiked CA, guns in two forts
near the town, and he requested to go and destroy
the magazine, and the gnus in the forts that guard
the entrance of the harbour. I should certainly
have sent the boats that ue,;lit, hut the great chance
of their being taken by surprise, should the enemy
advance, and the night being very dark and squally,
with every appearance of bud weather, made me de-
fer it till the next morning ; at day-light we stood
into the bay, and manned and armed two boats •
from each ship, under the orders of Captain Defy
lie vies eccompaiiied by Lieutenant H. M. Herbert,
of the Cossack, and Lieutenant Read. of the Royal
Marines, and several of the younger Officers, who all
volunteered their services; they left this ship soon
after six o'clock, and landed about eight, spiked all
the guns in Fort St. Salvador de Ano, and Fort
Sedra, and wedged shot in the chambers of them,
which renders them quite useless ; the magazine
was at some little distance, and ha,t five hundred
whole barrels of powder in it. beside-it quantities of
other store.; all which was completely destroyed,
great part by throwing it over the chilli tato the sea,
leaving sufficient to blow up the magazine; the
train was laid for a considerable distance, and it was
let off about ten o'clock; which instantly levelled
the whole building to the ground ; finding some
more powder in Fort Sedra, a train was laid to it,
which took effect, and blew part of the house amp
store-house in it up ; the two other forts on the
west side of the bay they could net attempt, as the
our° was so high it was impossible to land, and to
walk round was too tar from the boats, as they had
not a moment to spare ; havin,c, heard before they
set fire to the first t. air, that the French had entered
the town, and they expected a strong guard at the
forts ; the boats left the shore by eleven o'clock,
and had just got round the Point of De Ano,
when a considerable body of French dragoons ap-
peared on the hill, and took post near the smoking
ruins of the magazine. I main sorry to say, Captain
Daly, and Lieutenant Read, of the Marines, are
much scorched, particularly Lieutenant Read, in
setting lite to the last train, but am happy to find
his eyes are safe, awl he is doing well. Captain
Daly speaks in high commendation of the zeal and
exertion of every officer and men employed with
him. I have the honour to be, &e.

Gazette in our preceding columns.

A Gottenbiirgh Mail arrived yesterday, vrith
papers from that city, and we also received, through
another channel, :mother set to the 241 instant,
and Stockholm Papers to the 28th last. The Tog
lisp expedition had not left Gottenhurgh on the IA
of inly ; but, according to report, it had receive]
orders to put to sea a i. 6 the first fair wind, upon its
return to England. The cause of this dMippoiut-
ment is distinctly stated in the Gottenhurgh Pa-
pers to he the imposmbility of arranging a pica of

tills is said to have been defeated on the
emit of Finland, with the lulu of four frigates,
and about 14 snnill . vessels, of which four sees
sunk, and the rest taken. This intelligence
was received on the 30th, at Gottonlnirgh, aid
posted on the Exchange of that city. The Stock-
holm Papers contain some military details, but of
no consequence.

We have mink some extracts from the Dutch
Papers to the 7th, the arrival of oirit hwe anotinti.,l
yesterday. The French ate strengthening then:-
selves in Silesia ; and, it is added, that iu order to
relieve the inhabitants of that district, the French
soldiers are to occupy the fortresses in that province,
which the Fraesinas have hitherto retained.

The telegraph yesterday announced, at the Ad-
miralty, the arrival of a vessel at Portsmouth, from
'Turkey, with dispatches of cm s derable import-
ance. The vessel so arrived is the Bairns sloop,
of le guars, Capt. DowN, with two Turkish Envoys.
They were expected in town late licit night or early
tins day.
The Mvairestrs, though of no later date than the
30th of last month, have at length found their nay
over te this country, from the-Continent; and how-
ever dark, deceptive, and even contrary to the in-
disputable fact, in iv I.e the assertions contained in
these Gazettes of the Corsican Despot—yet we
confess that we have perused them with the warmest
satisfaction. They appear to confirm all our hopes
and predictions oar Inc ultiMate event of the nation-
al struggle of the Spaniards for independence.—
Even the alarm of the Court and Cabinet of Bay-
onne evidently pervedes every article. What ten
mark it more forcibly than the vile deceptiep prac•
tised on the ignorance and credulity of the French
nation, in making the unfortunate Dutch King
Louts the medium of transmitting the intellS.
gebee of the death of Gemini: the Third ? This
forgery is next circulated by the public functions-
ries at Bourdeaux, accompanied with a prompt
dismission of the English Ministry, by the new
Sovereign. A Government, capable of having re-
course to such wretched expedients, is not strone,
we may safely infer. But BONAPARTE,' milt:.
exposing himself to ridicule, by stating the tra:-
qitillity and submission of Cadiz, of that ••

reduced to admit indirectly, that Madrid is not
in the Fame predicament. It seems even to be
allowed, th it JOACIIIS Mower either is about to
quit, or had already quitted that Capital. A yin-
ent fever, it seems, has compelled his Imp en
Highness to re-visa Bayonne. Little more is said
of Madrid:
