FRIDAY, JULY 'l3,- 1808.

The I?.evc;ige; wrlell has been so eagerly ex-
;
peaed, arrived yesterday at Portsmouth,. wiih Sir
:low; GDR?, the Spanish Adrnlrat, and a Deputy
from the Council of Seville. Sir JoHN GORE reached
town last night, and the Spanish optlicers are now

on the road..

Last night Dutch Papers to the gth inst,, reach'eci
town. They are pt!ifetily nt as to the surrender-
of the French Fieet in Cidiz ; tiut state io general
•
terms,* that the inteilience: from Spain is of a tran-
quillizing nature. An article, t,o,%eve,r, from Paris,
says, that numerous reitdo: cements of Troops
are
twitching towards Spain,nmards that Comply
which is so perfealy tranquil, and in which :the
French have alread, so litre au Army.

Many perSon,i hayeeine,;!,ed doubt's as to fhe de

where the victory was risty bei:eved, or. what dzy
the aaion.took place.

There was a report on Wednesday at Plymouth,
that BUONAPARTE had left Bayonne with great preci-
pitation, on account of some unfavourable news from
Paris, to which place it is said his course was direaed.
Many cOnjetures prevailed as to the .reason of
his sudden departure, but that which was:most
current imported, that it was on account of the irn:
poSsibility which had been announced to him of
putting in praclice his Decree .fur raising the Con-
scription for the year 1810.
It is not, however, certain, that . such a De-
cree hat been issued ; but if any difficulties
have really attended the .raising a new Conscrip;
.tion so long before-hand, it is not improbable
t hat the people are %.erse to the service fr,,r which they
would be devoted, in endeavOuring to enslave a free
People to elevate another of his upstart race.

WE had not room Yesterday to make any ob-
servations on the admirable State Paper issued by
the POE., in answer to the Note from the French
Minister, requiring him to enter into an -Offensive
and defensive league with the other Powers of Italy.
This excellent Paper, we doubt thake a
great impressions_on those who are attached to the
Catholic faith in every.part of the world. But we '
are persuaded that it must have a powerful operation
upon all good minds, by whatever religious princi-
ples they may be influenced. Itiscaleulated to raise
oniversal esteem for the. POPE; as it shews that he is
a true Minister of Peace, and to excite a propor-
tionate regret that he had not firmness enough to re-
'sist the demands of the French Ruler, in ihe first
instance, and decline the humiliation and disgrace of
a journey to Paris, for the purpose of crowning a
sanguinary Usurper. -It is by no Means oOkely,
if his Holiness had been resolute on that occasion,
that the tlsurper would not have dared todespoil him
of his dignity and power; for the whole world would
have applauded the Head of the Papal Church for
manifesting such a high sense of duty to his
sacred office ; or, if the Usurper had ventured to
wreak \his vengeance on the Sovereign
_Pontiff, he
might only have precipitated his own downfall. As
the case stands, howeyer, he has, Ifpossible,increased
.the detestation of mankind, in pro: jog that ingratitude
is among all those vices which render him one of
the worst charaElers that ever appeared on the stage
Of public life. Yet it is still to be wished, that'the
POPE had adopted the measure of putting the French
Ruler out or the protection of that Church, which
he has so grossly injured and insulted in the person
of its Apostolic Head. 511C11.3 measure was con-
fidenllv expeaed from the Papal Father, and it was
generally rumoured, among the Cat holic Body, as an
event that would certainly take place. Indeed this
treatment of the PorE44, just at this uitical period,
shews that BUONAPARTE is absolutely intoxicated
h,pride aid .vanity, and is one of the most itn-
- poliCe 'eels that he ever committed, 'as it will tend
to inflame the whole Continent against, him, and
make every man inure anxious for the fall of a Ty-
rant, whom no sense of religion, of honour, or
gratitude, can hind. It may not, perhaps, have the
same &Ted in France as in other Continental States,
because the people of that Country have less regard
to moral and religious ties than any other people in'
Europe. But still we are not to judge of the whole
of the French people by the corrupt population of
the French Capital, where debauchery of every kind
;is systematised. much more than even the operations
of Government. But to recur to the' Papal Docu-
ment ; We.expe6l that it will. prove a powerful
engine against BUONAPAKTE wherever it is seer, and
particularly among the Spaniards, who are knu.vn to
be more sincere and zealous in their religious faith
Can any other people, but who indeed did not Ant
this ootrageetis act against the Head of their Church
:to stimulate: their rage against a man who is mica-
vomit% to deprive their Country of its independence,
and d:sgrace thelr Throne, which' has boasted of
a r..ee .91 Monarchs derived from an illustrious
Family, by •an upStast that arose from obscu-
rity an I insigoificance, apd who is only known
to mankind by the miseries which his detest-
ed brother has brought upon the world. We
hope, therefore, that this admirab!e Document from
his Hotiness. will be circulated , all over the Con-
tinent, but particularly in Spain, where it will give,
it pbssible, :iticreased energy to those feelings of
loyalty and patriotism which du so much honour to
the National Charaaer, and which we doubt not,
under Divine Providence, will enable them to resist
the vile attent'Pts which au unprincipled Tyrant "is
making in order to reloce them to a level, with the
rest of va,sal States.

The acccnnts from Lisbon are to the 19th of ;tune,
which alt hough not or so 'decisive knatalf as . those
-trona Oporto, are nevt-rtileless extrernelY gratifying
Thr Frcnch.General JuNoT had dismissed GANILTZ
Nit Eats, who atter the departure of:the Prince
.I.EGENT,•ll)gratidted himself with the French
and took tiie count Lind of of the Strongest Pot-
tuatte4e regiments,. iu. §uiv3rt of the

General; it appears, had offended JUNOT, who had,
in consequence, confiscated and sold the whole }of
his property and possesions in Portugal: $y its
invitation, the people are repairing in it-tinier-Ise
numbers to a standard erected by him, round virhibh
all Portuguese Patriots are determined to rally in de-
fence of their country. All communication li'ad`
been cut off between the city of Lisbon and the
Forts St. Julien and . Belem down to Cascais,
where the French had entrenched-,themselves, and
laid in a large stock of provisions, sutfident for a
Icing siege.

By Letters received from Oporto, it appears, that
on the accomplishment of the Revolution at that
place, the following Proclamation was issued

PROCLAMATION:

" In the name of the Prince Regent of PORTU-
GAL, the Junta of the Supreme Government of
Oporto make known to all the subjeas of the said)
Prince, that -the French Government is entirely abo-
lished and exterminated from this Province, and the
Royal authority of our legitimate Sovereign is re-,
stored, which shall be put in force fully and inde-
pendently by the aforesaid Junta, until the pleasure
of his Royal. Highness the PRINCE REGENT shall be
known. In consequence, said Junta declares, that
our Royal Sovereign shall, be proclaimed, and his
Royal Arms replaced and respe6ied, as they used
formerly to be; and that all the Constituted Autho-
rities alt in conformity therewith,. and issue all their
Decrees, in the Royal Name of said Prince.
