By intelligence received from the Fleet off Cadiz,
dated the 41 st Dec.:en-11)e", we-learn, that the greatest
adivity prevailed in, the, Enemy's Port—that clew}
Line4-battle Ships, French and Spanitib, were said
to be,retidy for sea, and three others in a state of
great-fakwardnesi. The French were represented as
being a aXIOIIS to put to sea, and it was thought that
the Spanish Admiral would not %enture to oppose
.tleirwithes. We are happy to add, that at the
'time specified, the British Admiral had. Ituctcr his
immediate command, nine Sail of the Line, of
which were three-cleckers. So that there is rips tho
least doubt, if the "Combined Fleet should ioliore -
out, butt that we shall SQOII receive a 4.00 d R,;couPt
of them.

A Gentleman said to have arrived from France
with intelligence of a Decree having been Welt
published in France, directing the-litmedite mutts-
cation of ev;;ry.species of property in whichany Sub'
je6l of Great Britain should have an interest. Tb
same decree-, it is rumoured, direas the susp.ensiofl
_of all payments, and that. an account of all rnoPics-
due from the French to the British Merchants
may he accurately. rendered and registered at a place
appointed for.that purpose.
The'public have for some time known that,-tire
command of the Russian army is entrusted to Gen,
KAMIrNSKY. The following are said to be, the cir-
cumstances which led tO this promotion.:,
After the battle of Austerlitz this veteran, grieved
at ,the disaster, could not refrain from speaking his
sentiments freely respetling the management of the
army on that occasion. His observations, • bavirtg
reached the Emperor's ears, ..A.Lzxmtagrt. sent _
him, and after a little conversation, asked the Ge''
ucral's opinion respecting the conciuft that hail been
followed on the day of battle. This veteran replied
with great coolness* 'c Sokliers have Id: lien to
complain at.any thing that happens where stir Mo-
narch exposes his 'person along with' theirs but
if General KUTUSOFP had managed the army as it,
.Wa4Sinatiaged on thatday,he would haVeleen shot.'
The'Emperor, far from being displeased 1/4% ith the in-,
sinnation of an old soldier against his juvenile Gene.
r;alSliiP, on colledting the immense army that, has
.been sent to oppose the French, sent to Gem KA'
an offer of the command. He accepted it
—l-irin, it is understood, with'thiS stipulation, that
neither the Emperor nor his brother should join the
army and; in case of bringing forward a reserve.,
should not accompany it farther than Riga..
General KAMIENSKY, in consequence, takes upon
himself the whole responSibility. He was bred undef
Gem .SUWARROW, and in Russia is considered as 0
man not troubled with the " compunctious visiting
of Nature." , Generals PENGRATION and KuTusoFF
stand high in the estimation of the Russian army, a 5
first-rate Generals, but neither of them are employed
on the present occasion. They were both at'Peters-
burgh when the last letters u-me from that city.
