SATURDAY, SEPTEMBER 10, 1808.

,Ttlis morning we received Spanish Papers to the
Ist instant. The French, it appears, have re-occu-
pied Aurgos with a.corps of 6060 men, brut there is
•
no doubt that they will evacuate it as sdon as Gen.
BLAKE'S army approaches. The Duke D'INFAN-
TADO and Colonel DOYLE are gone to Madrid, in
consequence, as it is stated, of the discovery of a
plot in favour of the French. The particulars of
this plot are not mentioned,-but it is said to have
been of a most diabolical description.

Two Mails from Gattenburgh arrived this morn,
ing. We find by their contents that the Russian
Fleet was seen in the Baltic on the 12th, 'and
as both Sir J. SAUMAREZ and Sir S. HOOD are gone
after them, we have every reason to anticipate a
favourable result.

' By the same accounts we learn, as might natu-
rally be expeaed, that rile French Army:had ex-
cited disgust in Russian Poland, as-they have done
every where else, and that an insulted-ion-was ,the

consequence.'

,:!!

The latest accounts that have been receitied•from
Lisbon were derived from a Gentleman who effeaed
his escape from - that capital on:the 12th nit. Ac-

cording to the information of this Gentleman, Jo-
NOT has never attempted to conciliate the minds a

the Portuguese, but on the cOntrary_liaS uniformly,
condu&ed himself in such a manher-as to excite no
feelings but those of disgust and horror. He rose
from the lowest situation in society, and his eleva-

tion has only given scope to the excesses of a brutal
mind. His officers and troops took their tone from
their Commander in Chief, and the inhabi-

,tants were treated with contempt, insolence, and 1
savage cruelty. Jutrofs barbarous nature was
manifested even in the d,esttuaion' of a poor
maniac, wlio, in his ravings, sometimes uttered some
unmeaning jargon, which. was represented to have a
seditious tendency. JUNOT gave Oiders that the un-
fortunate wretch should be brought ,before.him,and.
though nothing could be more evident than his in-
sanity, the French General, without hesitation, con-
signed him to death, and he , was immectiatelyexe-
cute& Yet the condua of .I.uNor was' as con-
tradiaory as it was barbarous, and Lbe caprice
of 'the moment seemed to be his only -principle
of ac ion ; but every impulse was of a brutal
cast. The condua, hOwever, which chiefly offended
the Portuguese, was the utter contempt of Religion
which the French Manifested on, all occasions. They
had no sacerdotal character in their arthy, and while
the Portuguese were employed in the rites of devo-
tion, the French were engaged in their military ex-
ercises, and they even carried their outrages so far as
to make barrackisiof the Convents mid Nunneries,
and at St. Übe's, in particular, the chief. place of.
worship was converted into stables. Such, how-
ever, was the alarm that these tyrants experienced,
when they heard of the arrival of the RritiSh troops,
that they began to relax in their severities. towards ,
the natives, and atfedted to treat them with a shew
of confidence, having incorporated many of their
notorious spies with the: army. The Portuguese,
however, had seen and suffered too much to be de-
ceived by this change of behaviour, ascribing it to
its true source, a. dread of the English troops.—
Among other savage ails imputed to the French,
was the, murder of Ioo,Spaniards,in cold blond, af-
ter the battle (if Evora, which took place on the 09th
of July, in which they suffered much more than
they acknoyrledged. Nothing could exceed the fury
of the French towards the Portuguese, when
,they
... i
entered the town, n which neither. sex nor age
" were spared. In faa, there is hardly an as of
pradlicable barbJrity and injustice Which the French
have not strewn in Portugal, where the condo& of
their General, his Officers-, and his troops, will be
. ' remembered "with detestation, and recorded with hor-
ror. The ter.depcy towards insorredlion at Lisbon was

so strong, in conseqw:nce of French atrocities, that
on the iestival of Corpus. ellristi,.jUNOT- deemed

it necessary to line the streets with his troops, under.
pretence of shewing a-reverence for the solemn prO-,
cession, but in reality to keep the people in awe, by
the terror of his forces in array. An ,ingenious de
vice was practised by a corps, of. pielcpocLet.; on this
occasion : being deteaed and seized, they raised a` cry
that the English were lamiled, in consevence of
which the people hurried away at all points and 11-.. e
french betrayed strong symptoms of confusion and
anxiety, till the falsehood Of the report was ascer-
tained.
