his Excellency had the honour to be presented this
tnOrritng to the King.

ROMANA has quitted his troops in Callicia:to take
part in the intrigues of Seville, and to second the
English Party, of which he is one of the principal

supporters.

The Public Prints- have given erroneous state-
ments of the Ministerial arrangeinents. ' Among
others, it is said that Lord PALMERSTON is tO suc-
ceed Lord CASTLEREAGH, but that is not the fa&,
as the Noble Lord is expealed to succeed Lord G.
.L: GOWER, as Secretary at War.

with pleasure we learn that the melancholy
tidings from Weytilduth, which we alluded to on
Saturday, and the rumours which have been gene-
rally prevalent4r the last two or three days, are not
true. His MAJESTY yesterday gave orders for the
return of the Princess AMETIA to Vindsor, and the
Prince of WALES'S bed-carriage is to leave town 'on
Thursday morning for that purpose—a proof that
her Royal Highness must be improved in her health ;
though we regret to find that 'the air of Weymouth
has not been produaive of all the benefit which
was expeE•ted from it.

The French, or democratic party In America, are
indefatigable in their efforts to produce a war between. •
Great Britain and America. They seem apprehensive
that Mr. JacksoN's, instruaions may be of such a
nature as may lead to the restoration of harmony be-
•tvyeen..the two Countries,. and they endeavoured, by
the most unfounded assertions and the most . scur-
rilous i.buse, to inflatue the mob against him, and to
urge them to commit some a& of violence;.and they
succeeded so far as to procure the burning of his
'effigy on' the beaCh in his -sight. If .the. American
Government should be influenced, by any thing like
a similar feeling, all hopes of an amicable arrange'
ment must yanish. We hope, for the sake of both
'Countries, that this is not -the case ; but khe decided
preference which has upon all occasions been shown
to France, is not calculated to • excite any sanguine
expectations of -a favourable issue to the Negocia-
tions. We are, sorry to find that fresh difficulties
have arisen respeEting deserters ; several of the crew
of die Africaine escaped.on shore, and though they
were taken .up,and regularly claimed by the British
Consul, yet it Was decided in an American Court that
they should not be delivered up.

Some. doubts appear still to be entertained, re,:
spelling the Conclusion of the Peace het ween. France
and Austria, founded upon the silence of the Papers
which- have been received of a date subsequent to
the 1 t th, hnd npon some private Letterg which were
yesterday received. One Letter, received by amen-.
chant of respeEtability in the City, from Holfilnri,.
contains the following expression :—" All Idea of
Peace is vanished ; not a word now passes upon the
subie6t."
Government are, we believe, not in possession of'
any other intelligence upon the subje&, but what is
contained in the Dutch Papers; but Pri-ittce STAtt-

REMBERG has, we understand, declared, thatfrom the
accounts which had reached him, he was led to ex-
pea an althost immediate renewal or hostilities. _

That a&ive and zealous Officer, Capt. M'VEcAro,
while Ading Commander of his Majesty's ship
Rover, on a seven weeks' cruize on the coast of Nor-
way and Jnland; took and destroyed eighteen sail of
the enemy's Vessels, and only lost one marine kilfe t,
the boatswain and oneseaman vvoundecl. In m-dcing
one of -the above captures, the Rover chased close
to the shore, within two fea of her own draught,
under the fire of the enemy, the crew having.aban-
doned the vessel, and the Rover's boats .being, all de-
tachedon other service, several seamen of the Rover:
volunteered swimming to take possession of the prize,
which they effected unhurt, under a heavy fire from
the enemy on land.
• We learn by a vessel which sailed from the Cha7
rante, a few days ago, that several of the Officeri
who commanded the French ships in the affair at'
Basque Road, lin; etwen tried for tniscondoet upon
that occasion. The Captain of the Calcutta has
been shot for cowardice, arid another has been sen-
tenced to three years imprisonment. Many other
Officers are kept under close arrest.
A Court-martial was held at Portsmouth, on
Monday,,..on George Dogherty, seaman, ,of the Rur-
yalus, for stabbing and cutting Philip Tobin, seaman,
of the same ship. He was sentenced to receive 200
lashes. On the same day, John Heron, alias Her;•
ran, private marine, of the .Bellonet, for )-obbing
Isaac Francisco and Joseph Stone,. of the Belloria,
was sentenced to receive 300 lashes.—Sir JOSEPH
SIDNEY YORKE, President. , •
The most recent accounts from the Tagus are to
the 3d inst. The head-quarters of-the British army
were still at Badajoz. The troops bad been rather
sickly, but were recovering fast. When the 27th
regiment, which were on their march, should join,
the effective British force, under Lord W.F.t;LINT.G- '
TON, it is said, would not be much less than 36,000
men. His Lordship was hourly expelled at Lisbon,
1 to take his seat as heild of the Regency.
