LONDON.

FRIDAY, APRIL 13, 1810.

We have this morning received some Spanish and
Portuguese Papers, from which_ we have made se-_
veral extracts. Some German Papers also arrived,
but they Contain 'no news:

Dutch Papers to the 9th inst. have reached town,
which contain the terms of the Treaty between
BUONAPARTE and his brother Louts, respeaing the
future fate of, Holland.. The idea of a Treaty between
.BUOkAPARTE and Louis must, at
,any_timeappeer
absurd, but it is more peculiarly so at • preseet,
when the latter is the prisoner of the'former, and
holds his title entirely at his pleasure. This Treaty
nominallypteserves to Holland her independence,but
in fad con3pletely-titinihilates it, and leaves thelDutch
Government almost without a shadow of power.—
The Whole of Dutch Brabant and Zealand are ceded
to France, and the reason assigned by BUONAPARTE
for demanding this cession is worthy of notice.
The article says, " Whereas the,Arsenals of Ant-
werp are, in consequence of the present position of
the frontiers of the two Conntries, uncovered and
exposed, therefore," &&c. This declaration Of
vcry rut the
violent opposers of Ministers in this Country, who
have been telling the Public in, their speeches
and Writings that the attack upon Antwerp was
absurd and impraEticable ; that .BUONAPARTB felt
no uneasiness respeaing its fate, and that, on the
contrary, he felt the ntrnoat satisfaction when .he
found that our foTce was destined to attack in that
quarter. To these assertions, so eloquently and so,
patriotically urged, BUONAPARTE has now given a
dire& contradiction:' •The Gentlemen of the oppo-
sition say that Antwerp was not assailable with any
prospe6 of success. BUONAPARTE says it was, and
i$ exposed and uncovered ; and to such an authority,
• particularly on a military subje&, we are, sure they
will bow with submission. Having, by the article
alluded to, seized a considerable and valuable portion
of the Dutch. territories, BUONAPARTE, by the
other. .atticles, assumes the complete Government
• of all that, portion of the Datch territories which
he has not seized. An army of eighteen thou-
' sand men, one-third French, is to be maintained
by the Dutch and to be stationed at all the mouths of
rivers, to eel under the orders of French Custom-
house Ott-leers. A fleet of nine sail of the hoe, six
frigates, and too gun-boats, are to be maintained by
the Dual, atdjo.be at thedisposal of BUONAPARTE.
In. word, Holland is, to all intents and purposes,
a province of France, paying double taxes.
There is one article. in this Treaty which we con-
fe;:s we read with peculiar pleasure, viz. the Mb,.
which states, that " All the merebandize brought
by American. ships into Dutch ports, which have
entered since the Ist of January, 18(0, shall be

placed under sequestration, and given-up to France,
in order to be d4osed of according to Circumstances
and the political relations of, France with the United

States."

We shall be anxious to know what impression
this article will make upon Mr. JEFFERSON and the
French• party in America, and. whether they will
again .coutend, in their Negociations with this
Country, that Hollapd ought to be considered as an
/rtdepcnderrt State.
