LONDON,

THURSDAY, JANUARY 2, 1812.

We have very little doubt that the Prelitninaries of
Peace either have been. signed, or that they very
shortly will be, between Russia and Turkey. We
know from authority, upon which we place the trrost
implicit reliance, that all the impediments which
hid hitherto interrupted the Negociation had been
removed; and unlessßUOl4 A PARTE should have suc-
ceeded in creating new ones, the Treaty by this
cnte must have been signed. The recent march-of
French troops through the southern parts of the
Austrian dominions, towards the theatre of war be-
...
tween the Turks and Russians,• aflords. strong rea-
•sur,s for thinking that BUONAPARTE intended to fall
upon the Russians in that quarter, .in conjunction
with the Turks; but if the Pelee has 'been signed,
that plan,- of course, will be frustrated.

The Letters fiom 'lie North state, that BERNA-;

D3TTE continues lo manifest the strongest desire to

remain upon amicable terms with this country.—
Whatever that per:on's real feelings may • he,
his interest, and indeed his personal safety,
,so
strongly point out to him the
ofecessity of adopt-
lg pacific measures, that we are inclined to
believe that he would not willingly engage in a
"war either with this country or with Russia.—
Tlie tenure by which he holds his prfSent
alted situation is a most precarious one; and
131JOt4PARTE has .no power to protea him against
the resentment of the-Swedes, if he should excite
it by plunging them into•a war to promote the in-
terests of France.

It has- been stated .in ' letters from Cadiz,
that some differences have occurred between the
Blitish Minister in Spain and the Spanish Govern-
We have reason to believe that these reports
are erroneous. •

The account of a dishonourable intercourse between
a Lady in high life and her Footma'i has been con-

to be alluded to, it was somewhat injudicious to
seled an individual for an authorised contra-

Extras` of a letter received from an Officer in the
ritish army in Poetugal, dated Albuquerque, Dec.
1, 1811 :

" General Hill's brigade is stationed here, and the
advance of the Alentejo army is about eight leagues
from Badajos, in which town there is a prrison
of 4000 iidantry, and about 200 cavalry. The
French have improved the fortifications since we were
there, and I think if we lay siege to it, we shall
find them much better prepared for ❑s. At Merida,
which is the advanced post of the army of the South,
there is a corps of about 2000 men' who have
blockaded the streets, and are continually upon the
alert, fearing a second attack. A letter has just
been received from a Captain in the 39th regiment,•
wit() is employed upon the set-% ice of reconnois-,
sauce, which mentions, that on the 30th of last
month, there was a Council of War held at Tala-
vera de la Reyna, at which Marmont presided ; im-
mediately after, he departed for the army of Ciudad
Rodrigo, and put them in order of retreat. His
whole force is now in Old Castile, and it is reported

that he is gone to take the command oi the army in
Galca. The deserters say, that the army of Spain
will be marched to the North of Germany.

"Our quarters here are good,game in great abund-
ance and cheap, wine cheap, but bread three times
the price it is in England, owing to the scarcity of
wheat. The rainy season will set in, in the course
of a fortn:ght or three weeks."
"The quarters of the cavalry are chiefly in advance.
Gen. Slade's cavalry brigade quarters are, Ist Royal
Dragoons, Lamego ; t 2th (Prince of Wales's) Light
Dragoons, St. Joao de Pesquiera, both upon the river
Douto.* Accounts have been receiveel,that at Doroco,
in Arragon, 2500 French- have been obliged to sur-
render. I3allasteros is again under the guns of Gib-
raltar. On Tuesday arrived here, the Marquis Va-
lencia, the Marquis Ponte Lima, and Senor Vas Mu.
cillas, Portuguese 'Noblemen, who escaped from the
French. When the French left Lisbon, they went
with them. A short time since, they applied by letter
to Lord Wellington, to know whether he would pro-
tea them, which he promised, and wrote to theße-
gency, saying what he had done. Being tired of
being traitors to their•country, they escaped by way
of Madrid, and arrived safe here. The uncle of M.
Ponte Litiia was formerly Port.uguese Ainhassador to
_ _

Jondon ; another was with Lord Neon in the Me-

diterranean. The brother of Mucillas was in favour
with Lord Wellington, when within the lines. They
state the French army as much dissatisfied, and that
fear only of the Guerillas prevents their very nume-
rous' desertion. They are obliged to send always
very strong escorts in search of provisions ; and
from the difficulty of obtaining them, never bring in
snore than for 1.5 days. Every day pi isoners or de-
serters from the French army arrtv.e here. It must
very much lessen their force in the Peninsula.—
Unless they are much reinforced, I: think we shall
be able to de something with them in the spring of
the campaign,"

October, in consequence of running a race with a

An advertisement in the Leeds Mercury, of Sa-
turday last, offers a striking illustration of the abso-
luie necessity of establishing a system of Education
for the Poor. Of twelve persons, who publicly
apologized for an assault committed on the person of
a neighbour, only one could write his namea—the
marks of the eleven others appearing at the toot of
the advertisement.
