of this horrible event has not beettstated, but it is Slip._

posed to have arisen in a general indignation on account
of the ascendancy of tlie French counsels over the
mind of the unfortunate Emperor and his Ministers.
If, so, the consequences must, of course, be favour7
able to this Country, as our commercial relatiOns
in
that quarter will be renewed, and in little 4elihood
of being again interrupted by French. intrigues, 'af.,
ter what has happened in France, where French
perfidy and barbarity have been so notorious, and
so happily punished. It is said that the number of
Insurgents in Constantinople amount to upwards of
40,000 in arms, and that their proceedings have been-
I
of the most sanguinary description.

We have received some Portuguese Papers to the
24th ult. They contain some interesting details re-
speaing our military operations in that Country ; and
it gives us the most sincere pleasure that they speak
as highly of the orderly conduct and eNad discipline
of our soldiers, as they do of their courage in the
field.

The number of Volunteers that have offered to
transfer their services to the LoCal Militia amount
to no less than ninety thousand.

The arrival of General/16c DoBRO, .the Governor
of Monte Video, with his family, in this Country,
is an event, of some importance in the present situa-
tion of Spain. This Gentleman came in the Spanish
Frigate La Prueva to Plymouth, and reached town
on Sunday last : he is said to bringintelligence par-
ticularly interesting.—A great change in the senti-•
ments and disposition of the people towards theEng-
fish Nation has no doubt taken place since
.they.
have heard of the generous assistance which we have
rendered to the Mother Country ; but it is by no
means certain that they will remain in the same state
of dependence on the latter. Yet whatever events
may happen in that quarter
.of the world, we haVe.
reason to believe that nothing will occur to disturb
the harmony between the Spanish Colonies and this
Country; but on the contrary, there is the greatest
probability of a vast commercial intercourse, that
will be mutually advantageous, and' tend to" draw
closer the ties of good-will and amity. •

'lt has been erroneously reported that the Marquis
DE ROMANA has arrived in this Country: he is,
however, daily expeded, together with a consider-
able portion of the Spanish troops..

By the Tiger, arrived a Li4Tpool, the following
letter has been received, dated.liaitAdocs, my f:!4 ;

" His Majesty's Ship Raniillies intends to leave
Tortola on or before the soth inst. with the trade
for Great Britain, &c. The trade fro►n hence sailed
on the fah inst. ; the trade from St. Lth!ie" passed
Dominica on the igth the trade from the latter
Island intended to sail on the 2 Ist ; and the trade
from Antigua on the 22d, fur the place of rendez-

There are private letters in town, from the Con,
tinent, which state, that the obsequious Senate of
Paris have thought proper to address their ambitious
usurper, beseeching him to relinquish, for the pre-
sent, his design of enlightening the People of Por-
tugal and Spain, and to withdraw his Armies till
time and reflection shall render those countries more
sensible of the blessings which he intended for them;
It is not impossible that the defeated Tyrant may
really endeavour to covet his disgrace with a farce
of this kind, and the Senate may have had a hint to
put the dramain 'due preparation, in order to give
a new turn to the catastrophe of his intendsd tra-
gedies in the countries which, we tiut,.are now
etfe6tualiy relieved froni all danger'of his oppressiVe
management.
