CERTIFICATES. ' •

Lord HuTConesosr and suite arrived at Copen-,
hagen on the 2d; and they immediately set sail in
prosecution, of his mission on board the 4lert.
Government have received some dispatehes of
importance from the Court of Spain, which were
forwarded first to our Ambassador at Lisbon.• • The
contents of : the dispatches have not, of course,
transpired ; - but the policy of the Spanish 'Govern-
ment is.said to have undergone a complete change,
and to be now unfavourable to France. A Gentle-.
man Who caste passen6rersin the Vessel that brought
the dispatches, states, that great caution was observed
. to' keep the dispatches a secret. When he ' trft
Lisbdn, the Merchants began to feel some unesis
ness respetling the fate of Portugal. At'the time
this Gentleman left Madrid for Lisbon, thq Spanish
Government was continuing to recruit its forces ;
and, as it was reported there that the armys when
completed, was intended to a6l against the French,
some pains were taken by the Government to re- ,
Move that impression. Letters from Seville, of the
29th ult. state, in positive terms, that the French
Officers there made no secret of declaring, that a
rupture was on the eve of taking place between
France and Spain.
