The new Government of Sweden' preserves its

While COBBETT is justly exposed all over the
kingdom, for his malice and profligacy in causing a
Court-Martial to be assembled, from which he,
though • the Prosecutor, and solemnly pledged and
sworn to make good his charges, ABSCONDED, we
think too little notice is taken of his current disaffec-
tion and treachery. It is true their effeas are dul-
cified by a very considerable infusion of folly, and
are not more dangerous on the one side than they
are contemptible and ridiculous on the other :—still
as, since his DETECTION, it is probable that his rea-
ders consist only of the lowest and most ignorant
classes, it is incumbent upou the public press.to un-
deceive and instruct them.
In a kind of paroxysth of despair Mister COaaarr
affeets to consider the pattiptital Insurretrions which
are-so happily taking place in several parts of the
Continent, against the tyranny of France, as dan-
gerous in example to the. Government and consti:
rution of Great Britain. He Can see no difference
between the ancient natural subjeas of' Austria; in
the Tyrol, or in any of the-Imperial States; taking
arms to etpel BCONAPARTE, and a parcel of Irish
Rebels conspiring to admit a French force into Ire- .
land. He can discover no distinction between the'
mode of levying taxes in England, and that of col-
le&ing them in France, by sending soldiers into a
house to Nt at free quarter !! ! He thinks the'
Local Militia, who mutinied at Ely, from some
misconstruction about their knapsacks, ought to be
'Ached aia :flogged daily and .duly, (such is his eic,
pression,). not for their mutiny, but for being con-
scious of their error, and submitting to their punishr
meht.• He asserts; that the refusal of the Sheriff of
Essex to convene the County to thank Mr. WARDLE,
detected as Mr. WARDLE is, and required as the
Sheriff was, by a far more numerous and reSpeCla-
- ble list of Freeholders, not to disgrace the County
•by assembling it for any purpose so silly, was an ael
of obedience to the authority of the King.
And.Vvith this absurd lie in his mouth he proceeds
to rave against the Constitution—never fecolleEting
that, if the King exercised his authority, as he pre-,
-.tends, over the Sheriff's in these matters, the Sheriffs
of too many of our abused and misled Counties,
WhiCh have been. duped by WARDLE and himself,
haveaaually disobeyed their Sovereign,' and com-
mitted a&s of contumacy and rebellion. These,
however, are the Sheriffs CoettETT applauds and
loves, and very naturally, although it is unnatural,
even for him, thus to impeaCh and denounce his
own fellow-labourers.

The tone and style of the deteeted Impostor ate
as much worthy of serious animadversion as his false
and impudent and note than seditioui assertions and
doarinei. They are excluSiyOy calculated for the
grossest and most illiterite capacities, and their evi-
dent design is to inflame the ignorant, by pretend-
ing. to intimidate and threaten his Majesty's Govern-
ment, -the Hierarchy, all the Qrders of the State,
and every man of charaeler• and property in the
Empire. ,In one word, he so evidently courts a
prosecution, in order to restore the circulation of his
sedition, by the natural interest and curiosity it'
would awaken, that we are at times almost inclined
to hope that he will be suffered to go on unmo-
lested, and noticed only with that just contempt
and animadversion of the Press, which have already
disarmed his impure jaws of the worst of his poisods;
while they offer the best antidote to the etle6l of
them in those societies which "are still weak or .pro-
fligate enough to read him.

. .
.
A letter was yesterday received from the Capital of,
.Spain, by,a Merchant here, from a near relation, 'of
a more recent.d..ite than any before obtained. The
writer expresses himself enighiatically, in order to•
conceal the subject of the communication from the
French Post-Masters. The following is the passage`
to whit!' we refer :

Madrid, zgth May,
"He( C u ) pays his creditors v+ ell in Andalusia; and
he has fulfilled. his engligernents so completely, that we fully
exped he will conic and du the same here—On Madrid)."
This' riddle is not of difficult sOlntion. , It ob
viously means, ,that; the opinion of this Corres-
vendent; the. Spanish Comtnander, has managed his
resources so discreetly, that he will soon be enabled
to aiM pay the french i theif own

". Frohl Valladolid to Zamora by Toro, and to
Salamanca by Medina del Canino, s.the utmost tran-
quility •has prevailed; but it is Artie), that 15 days
ago, on both roads, some infamous charaetera have
stated falsehoods to the French of their King:' Al-
most all the Spanish Authorities ; countenanced by
the natives, in those districts, are feeble ,chara6ters,
irresolute in their proceetaings, and Areacherous.-:
The 'idle conversation, and the incendiary Writings,
:are dangerous among a people, as irritable as they,
are hypocritical and rebellious, and these ought to
be the object of continual, but secret, attention and'
punishment. The greater part of the Friars anti 1
Clergy contribute to give to the public mind a per- I
vicious dire Lion. The events the most trifling, and
measures the most natural and just, giv6 occasion to
this sort bf influence, which is supported by false re.-
presentations and ridiculous stories. On the whole,
his Catholic Majesty will; from these particulars•in-
fer that be will not find among the Spaniards com-
pliance more obsequious, . or affeetion more sincere,
than lie receives from the hearts of- Frenchmen
around "him'. Our utter 'ignorance of the situa•
tion of his Excellency Marshal Soult, on account of
the difficulties of communication, makes the Spa•
niards think, or rather assert, that he is surrounded,
by insuperable difficulties." '

(PROM THE ABOVE PAPER, DATED JUNE 8.)
• Among the various expedients which patriotism
has contrived to wage war with the French, few
have bad more promptitude, been more useful, or
tnore general in their effe6ts, than the inethod'of
spreading through the whole kingdom small armed
patties, which press ,upon their straggling detach-
ments' and intercept their dispatches.. We have al-
ready mentioned the loud complaints they make of
this. new species of persecution ; we shall now see
how nearly they ailed Jdseph Napoleon himself.—
"The two letters which, follow disclose to us the se4
crets of_the Cabinet of Madrid ; discover to us the
errors into which that miserable Court has fallen ;
and the desperate situation' which has 'led even the
partizans of our enemies to the discovery of their
genuipe 'interests. The first of these docume‘nts is
front Don Francisco Amoros, Counsellor of State,
Royal Commissary of Guepuzeoa, and Chief Ma-
gistrate of tl)e Police of Madrid. The circumstance
•of its being directed to King JOseph, andgiving an;
account of the execution of a commission, in which a
person, so highly favoured by his Sovereign, has em-
ployed his zeal and talents, gives a sort of authority
and verisimilitude to the composition, which the
produClions of a Gallo-Spaniard can seldoM acquire.
But as the intell:gence„ would not have been very
agreeable to this royal puppet; his goad fortune has re-
lieved him from the disgust it would have occasioned,
and has conveyed it into our, :possession, where as-
suredly ,the same mortification will not be excited
by

" SIRE,

"$q the Ministers ci Police and of War; I corn-
Municate to your Majesty the observatlons I have
made, and the precautions I have taken, in this city
(St. Sebastian): I acknowledge that I did not ex-
pe& to find here such vile tlispositions, or to have
much business to arrange, or such difficulties to over-
come; and it isfvery singular that even religious or-
ders in these distriels are more manageable than the
land proprietors and merchants. A Dominidan"
Friar has already preached in favour of your Majesty;
and others will his example (a). , The at-
tachment these people have to their preVilegeg; 'the.
ancient prejudices they indUlre, the multitude of
soldiers' families perishing for want of pay and pen-
sion 6; and continually clamouring, against govern-
ment,, these, Sire, are the causes of disloyalty.--"--
These people cannot thus subsist ; . the province gives
allowances, to some, and it will_be•necessary to fix •
the precise donations to all the rest;• that they may
have no cause of complaint, and that if afterwards
they murmur, they may be duly punished (b)'.
The Deputation -has applied to me to satisfy
these urgent demands from your Majesty's treasury,
but as your resources are more artificial than real, I
have refused. I know that. there prevails .great dis-
order in the administration of the public wealth, and
I have diretied inquiry to be made, in order to pre-
vent it. About six or seven families who alwayS
a& with despotic thrthority, . and always will as so,
hold the principal posts in this empire, thus diserga-;
nized by an ancient and tyrannical aristocracy.
Althatigh by the Miniiter of .War I send copies of ern.:
Munications respelling the coast of Biscay, and of the deter-
mination 1 have formed_ fcii the plan of defence, arranged with
General TouVenot, yet I think fit to send a duplicate to your
Majesty, that if you judge proper you may deposit it in the
hands of Marshal roar:lan. • rhe personal attendance'of the
Officers of the army who have presented thernselves

sequences of these to the enemy, and of the patriotic
and Antigallican spirit which perviides in the Bts-

,proVinces, let us lbok to the communication
of such events given, in the, Gai die of Madrid, under
date of the 26-th of April, and. let 'the crelnlons, the
timid, and the faithless, witness the impudence
which that pantotrijalili Court spread; lies on 11)1

wand of the French Oftcer. Fleurien determined
to give these intruders a warm reception. In the -
sequel the English attempting to land, were repulsed
by the judicious dispositions of that Officer, who,
Supported brthe natives, rushed. upon the enemy,
and completely routed him, destroying three
launches, and killing thirty men. All the inhabi--

of deSerters and robbers whb yet infest the country,
and all display .greatenthtisiasch and attaChment to
their Sovereign.'
The unsettled Condition of the administration of
the pi-oVincekWhich groan. under the French voke,
and the Miserylo which the people ,are reduced in
consequence; appear by a thousand letter's and inter=
cepted documents in the form of dispatches, that the
loyal Patriots tratistnit to onr Goirerntnent, from the
heart of Castile:. 'For want of room, we,shall only:
notice three more tatfic,W papers, which we have
before ' us. M. Merlin, Commandant in (Vittoria,

Marshal join-clan :

" Oar small garrison is alWayS under arms to do
the duty of the pdlice. These incredulous -people

beaten. ,Frotn time to titne we arrest *parties of

Don Domingo Blanco, •of SalcedO, Gallo7Spanish,
Intendant of Burgos, vites, on' the 15th.of April; ,
to Cabarrus-, desiring that M. Thiebault, Governor
of the pro Vince; wobid send him 4000 pesetai
(1811. 10s.) -,pernion th; the half month in advance.;
being the guru that (hesays) King Joseph, allows
him as a pertsion. Tothis application he received
the following. ansWer

ic I have told yOu that there is nothicg in the
treasury, and that the subordinate Officers are mak-.
' rigorons: requisitions,. and are.without the means
of paying .the claimants- I hOpe receive instruc-
tions from Your Excellency by what means I shall
acquire the moneyout ot Which this sum is
.to -
paid ; for. I .believe, on the best greunds in. the
world, that all the people in the province have ad-
vapced to the B'o-Officers many years .olcontribu-
,tion. From
...this. cause, the, loan from the Clergy
proceeds very slowly. 'lle, whole has been, froth
necessity, put under their own' managernent, and_
the ieation they ,Cannot subscribe is on account of
the large advances already made, which. have even
dept ivied them of Wlit is necessary fur their own
support."

fc),Suc.,li is the Condition of the French. Thei: battles and
their violence have answered napurpose to them. The war
which,they meet on all sides, the .cuivinual sacrifice of their
men, the want ofeommunication w , and O impossibility ogre..
establishing it;leave them without:concert; and therefore With-.
out judgment. The most ,agreeable circumstance to belearnt from .this letter is this to true Spaniards, that it leaves us no
doubt, but that in the,f)rovinces which have been.constantly.
under the French yoke, those have gained nothing who have
sotight to mislead the people, and thin We midst of the
Most miserable oppression, the hearts of the inhabitants ate
all our own.
