LONDON,
TUESAIY, JULY C, 18t3.

A most singular story has just reached us from
a quarter in which we have.never yet met with
any inaccuracy, and we therefore .give it to the
public as we received it.
The hou:;e in which resided BUDNAPAUTE and
MARmoNT, either accidentally or by design, took
fire, and the mighty hero had nearly terminated
leis career after the manner, of an auto do fa.—
IthamoNr, not possessing the agility of his
master, from being disabled at Salamanca,
was so much scorched as to cause his death,
while the monster himself narrowly escaped
with life 'from the flames. It is a foolish adage,
but-i does seem that

"TILL' DEVIL% CHILDREN TATUCKIS LUCK."

By the last arrivals from the North,
,we, are:not
only put in possession of intelligence of very cort-
siderable importance, but arelaught in look for
evert more momentous events from the turn of
circumstances on the grand theatre, which is ap-
parently of a nature to render the news that must'
shortly reach Silesia from Spain, of extraordinary
efficacy in balancing the claims and deciding the
policy of the various powers whose pretensions
are now at issue. The immense additional weight
with which Great Britain would now treat, when
she would come to congress with free and inde.
pendent Spain in her hand, will he felt in every
ramification of every Continental Cabinet; and-
if the aspect of affairs be such as these latest
accounts represent them, must have the effect of
confirming all that is favourable and advantageous
to this 'country among the nations engaged in the
conflict, and of greatly reducing the probabilities
of a result such as BUONAPARTE desires, either
shottld he acquire peace by relinquishing the ter-
ritorial and other spoils his ambition has accumu-
late:l, or again try the fortune of war to restore
him to the preponderanCe he hal lost Mi-
nisters', have. received tliSpatches from the Head-
qutaters Of -the Allied Army, the contents of which
are understood to be highly favourable. They
are reported to state, that the Russian and Prus-
sian armies have received large reinforcements,
and arc fully prepared for resuming hostilities
with the highest prOspect of ultimate success.; Yt
is also said, that they now exceed the French
armies both in numbers and equipment.

The dispatches from Lord CATUCART are to the
16th. They make no mention of the prolongation
of the Armistice, which our Readers are aware we
have nil along treated as' a mere unfounded
speculation ; a "kind of quid pro quo for the
equally unauthorized rumour of its rupture.
But the still more important 'fact announced is,
that a Foreign Minister (iee our Naval News)• has
arrived, by whom our Ciovernment have received
en invitation to take a part in the negociations for
a Peace, should the Armistice be continued, and the
expected Congress opened: Add tothis, that a Com-,
merelot Treaty, in which Britain ,Russia, and Prussia
-are the partiCS,j3 upon the eve of being concluded,
raid the Public will at onecyerceive that the situa-
tion of the Continent is intered in so material a
degree that it is put out of the power of the Tyrant
to continue or renew that diabolical sy6tem of
hostility which he hturso nearly succeeded in en"-
tirely establishing against our commercial pros-
perlty and greatness: The terms of this Treaty
will be'eminently advanta:,.,!eons to all concerned,
and. In spite.of the-ufforts of. our inveterate foe,'
the egnilibrinm: of the world will be restored
through' the medium of that common blesbing of
mankind, a free trade.
Private letters from Gottenburgb state, that a
Eussian Expedition had arrived off the Island of
Engen, with troops destined to join the CROWN
piuNcE in Poinerania , while from Altona, of the

20th ult. we learn, that an opinion "was enter-
tained there, that the French would evacuate
Ilamburgh, they not being able to maintain them-
selves against the congregated strength of the
Swedish, Russian, and Hanseatic troops *which
c;)llectilig in that vicinity. A considerable
part of the gar bon was asemblea at Harburgh.

We have bad a rod in pickle for the Party these
some days, bnt the pressure of matter has pre-
vented its application to their hardened hides.
We cant assure them, however, that it is only sus-
'tended, not thrown away, ulthough the indig-
nant voice of the country 4iready 'Alias a pu-

nishment nptiti them almost severe enough to sa-
tisfy even our sense of 'justice.
Dean Swtrr has soid, " Blessed ore. they who
expect nothing, for they shall not be dissappointed
if this be true, the E'er:TY ore the most b/osed
persons iothis cottony, for they have all along
(even. to the morning Moll ..the,Towcr and Pork
guns roared conviction into their unwilling ears)
expected tIoTEING from the Peninsula. 'But Ave
rather think the saying is unfonded for they
have exhibited very grievous7signs. and symptoms
of disappointment a.)d distress-of which more
anon, when our limits perinit.

We have this day reed% cd accotints from
Oporto to. the :Nth ult. and from Malta to the
14th May. The latter. involve a long history of
the symptoms, precautions, and mode of treat-
ment necessary in . cases Of plague, -with which
we need not trouble our Readers,' and the
more especially as there is every reason to hope
that the danger apprehended front infection in
that island is abated, if not entirely done away.
-7From Oporto the following interesting 'para-
grriph induces a fervent expectation that the
event we yeiterday mew coned as probable, name-
ly, the seizure
,of the pillage of Spain, which was
sent off for France.op the 24th, has been achiev-
ed by the aetivity.4ind valour of the patriotic Spa.;
niards.

" OPORTO, JUNE 23.-4 is .positively asserted here, that
49SEFIt BUONAPARTE'S Prime Minister, and all the contrihn-
tions levied at and proceeding. from Madrid, have been taken
by the Guerillas."

The only article worthy of notice from Malta is
as follows :

" MALTA, MAY 12.—. The quarantine begun in the • city,
now almost become one of observation, has been-determined
by the merchants to he observed one wech longer. The
Townsend sails homeward to-day with a bill of health, stating
what has occurred, awl the rigorous pleasures which have
been 'adopted by Government and the public. We suppose
that bills of health cannot be given it much less than forty
days frOm the 3d instant. No nois titsestecur, assA much hope
is entertained that we shall escape the dreaded calamity.
" The packet has been ,further detained, a Proclama-
tion having been issued, informing the public, that no
other circumstance indicative of the plague had been disco-
vered by the Medical Board, who are examining all the houses
in the city to ascertain the facts. I have ventui cd into the
town to give you this pleasing intelligence. The vessels re-
sume their work tomorrow, and the embargo on the shipping
has been taken off. On examining the houses of many fo-
reigners here,. a considerable quantity cf secreted arms and
ammunition' has been discovered, which has caused almost
as much alarm as has been occasioned by the report of the
plague. A plan has also come 'to light, under which the
French prisoners here were to be supplied with arms, which
now, of course, will be prevented." •

Altona rapers reached town last night, of the
litb and 18th ult. which mention a letter from
Stockholm, ameba& been distributed in Norway,
stating the wish of the CROWN PRINCE not to
pommit hostilities upon the Norwegians, but that
ho was desirous of winning them by deeds of
kindness, and mentioning that he.- had marched
his forces to Pomerania for the purpose- offcarry-
ing on war against Denmark in holstein, Jutland
or Zealand, if necessary, and avoiding hostilities
itt Norway.. The only other material part of the
statement is, that the guarantee of Austria to the
annexation of Norway to Sweden, was daily ex-
pected alt Stockholm.
Letters from Anima,. of the 30th. give some
'information relative to the Expedition from that
port, previous to its sailing. It consists of 18,000
men, among whom-Atte 5000 of Withingham's
division. Some transports have tailed, and ,the
others will speedily follow them. The Duke Dm.
PARQUE occupies the line ~of Castalla, Where the
English 'were, of whose troops only one regiment
and some detachments now remain."
