LONDON, Y ANUARY 24, 180 i.

Attatrß.\L• CORNIVP,L;AS, we are lea to believe,
has been able to %yea titer the gale of Thursday night
without returning to Port, and we hope the Ships
that have come into Plymouth are the only ones
that sustained any .damage in. that tremendous

storm.

I addition to the Fads which we yesterday
N
communicated to the Public, respeding the
proba-
bility of a rupture with Spain, we are now enabled
to lay before them a Copy of a Circular Letter sent
by order of Mr. FKEIZE, His Britannic Majesty's
Minister at Madtid, to the British Consuls through-
out Spain. Although a positive inference is not to be
drawn from this Leiter, that a War between the two
Countries must inevitably take place,yet it tends very
strongly to confirm the accounts we have lately re-
ceived from Spain. We are now nearly placed in the
situation which we always apprehended,and frequent-
Iy predifted, viz, that of being force,3 into a War with
Spain just at the time that suits the views of the
French Government. That the Spanish Government
would 'Willingly avoid hostilities with. this Country,
we have no doubt, but unfortunately they areaaing
under the influence, we might say under the com-
mand, of a man who woutd think no sacra ice too
great to gratify hi's inveterate enmity against Great
Britain.
