llc-pvance of beer, which be was not accustomed to.

litr. •

Wishes to have a tress of eight, and a joint of
tneit to themselves.

They complam of want of candle-light, and a fire

PerrOtt bas the same complaint as the
others.

•Michael Nowlan complains that he was .reduced
to the beer allowance in January last and is dis-
tressed by furnishing himself tea and sugar for break-
fd,t.

Michael Dwyer complains that he was on the Ist
of July reduced from the 3s. 3d. list. He demand-
ed spirits, which he was used to—had an alterca-
lien with Dr. Trevor, and was put into the criminal
side of the Gaol. Cannot eat boiled fresh meat ; be-
sides, it is served offensively ; not long ago he had
a round of beef for his dinner, but there was a
wooden skewer in it: would like a beef-stake or
roast mutton. His allowance is taken from him,
and he is prevented eating with his wife.

Confronted with Dr. Trevor.
Dr. Trevor sworn, Says Dwyer wasat first pnt

on the first allowance. As
soon as the classes could be
distinguished, Dwyer's wife was permitted to live
with him, but he put Dwyer into the second class ;
in consequence of this, Dwyer became port, and he
did put hiM on the criminal side. He remained
there till he sent for Mr. Hume, M.P. who advised
Dwyer to apologize:---Dwyer did so, and then he
restored Dwyer to the Se-
cond Class.
Complains of the diet.—

the beet is good enough, if
be got it roasted ; complains that he is separated
la the day from his wife, and that is a breach of
his terms.
Say the beef is boiled
fresh—very scanty vegeta-
bles. Dwyer desires to
have halt a pint of spirits
every day.
Complains that he was

at first put on the half-
guinea list for four days; then he was put on the
Gaol allowance for fifteen weeks and two days ;
now he is on the is. 70.

as the others.

BY private account 3 from Oporto, dated the s'3d
ult. we find that every thing goes on well at that
place, and that the People are confident in their
eventual deliverance from their French oppressors.
The English are treated with all possible marks of
Tesped and grat;tnde.

By an Ad of the Council, English coin is to cir-
culate at its full value. The arrival of Sir ARTHUR
WELLESLEY was eagerly' expeded, and a house
had been provided, at the expense of the Portuguese
Government fur him and his Staff' The people
want nothing but ammunition, &c. as they rely
tippn their own spirit, though they are eager to
have the co-operation of the British. " Conquer or
tie," and " Long Live the. English," are constantly
heard.

An account had been received at Oporto of an
iaion which had taken place at Rio Saco, in
which the Spaniards were decidedly successful,
and the French lost, $3,00(),; - and tfiis account
came with such marks of authority as to excite
entire confidenee.—lt was reported, the day before
the date of these accounts, that .11.71401' had been
taken prisoner on board the Rtissian Fleet. There
are several. English Men of War lying off Oporto,
and the utmost harmony preiailed between the Com-
manders and the Portugueze, who are anxious to
testify their retard for our 'countrymen on all occa-
sions,,

Yesterday evening a telegraphic dispatch reached
the Admiralty announcing the arrival of Sit-Trios.
argil from Spain, at, P;ymoutfj. Sir THOMAS is
probably the bearer of some intelligence of imphrt-
iice--he may be eipetied in town in the cottrse of
this evening.

•
We hate very little to add to the intelligence
which Fe yesterday communicated to our Readers
from Portugal. The Patriots' are flocking to the
'standard of their legitimate Sovereign, and the only
2pprehension we entertain is, that their impetuosity
may hurry them into an aEtion with JUIWOT'S dis-
ciplined. veterans before they-can be joined by Sir
ARTHutt WELLESLWF. We are happy, however),
to 6nd that the gallant General, when he landed at
Corunna, dispatched a messenger to Portugal to an-
ilattricft bis approach.. The whole of .the.Batriutic
Force, rt. the North of the Tagus, W.J0.1110. to 7QOb,
're filar iif4atry, lo,uoo militia; SOU MOLuitod ca-

valry, and 1000 dismounted, and between 15,000
and 16,000 armed peasants. JUNOT has been mak-
ing great exertions to fortify himself in Lisbon, and
has oulleeted great quantities of provisions : his force
haS been estimated at 17,000 men, but we have
good reason to believe that his whole force does not
exceed 1.5,000 etfeaive men. Sir A. Wi:LLES-
LEY was expelled to land at Figuera, about 20
leagues to the northward of Lisbon. We have at
present a small force there, consisting of marines,
that were landed from Sir CHARLES COTTON'S fleet
about three/
weeks ago.

THE calypso Sloop of War has arrived at Yar-
mouth with Dispatches from the Baltic. It does
not appear that any further operations olconsequence
have taken place between the Swedes and the Rus-
sians; but, by the accounts from St. Petersburgh,
we are sorry to find that BUONAPARTE still retains
his influence over the minds of the Emperor ALEX-
ANDER and the Archduke CONS.] ANTINE. The latter,
it is said, had received from BUONAPARTE a promise
of the Throne of Turkey. The French are still
continuing their insults and oppres,ions in Holstein :
it is said they have demanded the entire cession of
that Province, and a contribution of several millions
of dollars.

The article which ippeared in THE SUM of last
night, intimating the probability that the Duke of
YORK would be appointed Commander in Chief of
the British Army in Spain, has occasioned some
animadversion in those who seem by no means
friendly to his Royal Highness.—When we said that
such an appointment " would be gratitinig to the
people of Spain," we did so upon very goad autho-
rity, for we are assured that the Spanish Patriots
themselves solicited the honour of having one of the
Blood Royal of this Country appear in favour ot-their
Cause: As this was the case, could the British Govern-
ment,in assenting to the request of the Spanish Patriot s,
pay them a greater compliment than to nominate the
next in kindred to the Heir-Apparent to such an.
appointment? After such a requisition on their
part, the Duke of YORK is highly to be commended
for having manifested a readiness to engage in so glo-
rious a cause. If he had declined to embark in that
cause, it is by no means improbable that they who
are inclined to treat his Royal Highness so harshly,
might have been the first to condemn him for being
reluctant upon an occasion so interesting to all man-
kind.

In the article which has drawn the animadver-
sions on us to which we are now alluding, we
simply observed, that such an appointment " would
be gratifyisig to the people of Spai❑ ;" and we re-
peat, that our chief reason for doing so Was an
assurance that the leading people of that country
had actually made such a rev isition,

Dispatches were received yesterday from Sir J.
SAUMAREZ, dated the 19th last-, off the Isle of Moen.
They do not bring any news of importance; but-we
understand they state, that the' French troops in that
and the other neighbouring*Danish ishinds conduct•
themselves: in the most • oppressive and insulting
manner. to the inhabitants. They respect neither
person nor property, seize whatever they. like, with-
out paying for it, and exercise a wanton and un-
limited authority in the place.
Dispatches were sent off last night for the Chan,
nel Fleet, which is arrived in Torbay. •• )••• •
Private accounts were received in town yesterday,
stating that the Expedition under Sir A. Vf ELLE:,
LEY had arrived .off the Coast of Portugal on the
24th ult. Preparations were then making fig 'the
'landing of the troops next day at Figueras.
