We are still unable to communicate 'any antlientie
information from our Fleet off Cadiz; n6r have w?
heard any thing further respe&ing the Privateer,
Whose arrival at Dartmouth we' mentioned yester-
day. Our Readers, however, may rely on receiving
the earliest information when any Official Accounts
are received. A report was yesterday circulat-
ed, that accounts had been received of our TrooPs
having landed at .Cadiz,, and after a severe congest,
oc-
with the French Seamen and Matines who haul
copied the b:ttteries, gained complete' possession 0(
the forts. No such intelligence has reached Govern'
meat, nor do we believe that any such account has
reached this Country.
Government, we understand, have received sr'
counts from Spain of a very recent date, which eon'`
firm the intelligence which was previously received
of the refusal of the Nobles and others, who were
ordered by BUONAPA writ to assemble at Bayonne.'
to obey these orders. They knew perfectly Well
that they were not summoned to deliberate
freely
upon the state of their Country, and to decide ac"
cording to the dielates of their Consciences, but thata
their presence was required merely to give a Colo
to his usurpation, and •to prevent that opposition to
his plans,' on the part of the People, which hti
every reason to exped. They therefote not onlY
fused to repair to Bayonne, but adopted those nlea'
sures for establishing a provisional Government, and
supporting the independence of their Coon try,vvhlo
we have already laid before our 'leaders. A Procla,
oration was, we understand, issued on the sth
by the Provisional Government, ordering theseizar°
of all French property in those Provin4ces in which
the patriotic standard had been rai4ed. A Letter
had also been dispatched to Admiral VitenEs, wlu9
commandi the Carthag.na Sq'oadron, novi
norca, inviting him to join h. C.-.)ontrytnett to tine
defence of their liberties. Ti,e Aniwer of the flu.
ruiral to this reWst Was not know i, but ii:tie.LOlbc

was entertained that he v. ould cutnp;y with it.

THE latest accounts from the Coritinettt
;
that the Ewa;toa of At/snits ,t has recently 11— I;
ol
orders for putting his Array on the most .forniKt;tb'e
9/
footing ; persons capable of hearing arm ..hs, 11.
out distinEtion .or rank, are ordered tc hold dieing
selves in readiness to join the Army. Thes' 11)er
sures, it is stated, have been adopted in conseque°
of a demand made by BUQNAPAKTB, of a Pai'i,l4l:'
for his troops through the Austrian Dominions a?.
Turkey ; which demand, it is said, the Au'.
trian Govertmient has refused. Whether E1)15
statement' be str.l3lv 'correci, or not we do
know, but we are quit convinced that 13t1°;
NAPARTE has contemplation the ‘16'6"11611C'll
all 'cot!'
the Austrian Empire. Independently of
'cl '
si erattons of private and perional animosity, BOO'
•NAPARTF. must know, that as long as AUstria qxists;
with even tier present 'degree of power, his °the
conquests and nsurpations must be always in dattge
under tV
We do not however think that he will,

with full employment in Spain, push inattas

tion of the condo& of his Good Ally.; for the
Frenol Troops have recently advanced in great
ttunthers to the:Banks of the 'Vistula; in defiance of
the stipulations of the Treaty of Tilsit.

Tits chief Opposition Priut observes, that " it is
'one of the advantages of our frame Of Government,
that its AZ's never attach to the Sovereign, but be-
long exclusively to the Ministers for the time being,
and, it is at all times easy for an Administratip to
make atcuiOnie!it for the delinquencies of a Prede

tesior." To the first of those. observation's we
heartily subscribe, and the people in 'general will
cordially agree with us, that none of the absurdities
and rnisc:siefs of All the Talents are to be imputed
to that wise 14Ionarch' who very. koperly dismissed

them when .he found that, besides ali:nating our
Allies by their negligeuee,, they were hazarding the
CunitaittiOn by their speculative folly. But we ditier
si much wiih them as to the latter observatibui as we
*gee with them in the termer, for it is by uo means
act etsY Mateer for " an Admini"nion to make atone-
ment for the delinquencies of a predecessor." The

ANbER and BIJONAPANTE, AS well as to the subse-

quint attack 'ppot Sweden, and all other evil come.
Tut/ices, 19r which all the wisdom, and all the well-di.
recled energy 9t t heiesuccessoN will find it very diffi-
cult " to make atonement" to those nations which have
already suffered and those which may hurcifter puffer

from the oppressions of France. We say nothihg
At present of the immediate cause of the removal of
" An the Talents," because the good sense of those
for whom they so.officiously interfered has not, ren,
dered it neces,arr for, their successors " to make
atonement" for their temerity and folly. ,

for the present, big his purrosewill 00 be shin.
duped... On the other hand, if the accAnts from
th,!: Continent may he depended upon, there are
strong reasons why 'Ai_istria should seize the preLent
Opportunity to secure her independence, and to
ward.olf the clinger with which she is threaeened...
the forces of BOONAPARTZ and now scattered from
the shores or the Baltic to those of the Adi-latic--ix
from the confines of Russia to the coasts: of din
and Portugal ; and though they occupy Countries
nominally friendly to France, yet such have been
the oppression which .they have pratlisecl, and atro-
cities which they have committed, that we hive no
doubt that the population of these Countries would
readily rise against their Tyrants, if any opportunity
tftfered which afforded a probability of resisting with.
success. The unfortunate infatuation of the Eg.
PEROR of RussiA, is, under such circumstances,.
doubly to be lamented ; but we shoUld think that
f. the. Condo& of BttogArAittx to the ICING of SPAIN
must ALE:WIDER, not only of the imp°.
licy, but of the danger, of his- present system. We
should almost be inclined to think inderd, that he
has already manifested something:like disapproba-

late ILdlniniytrxtion, by their contemptuous
