WEDNESDAY, APRIL 4, 1810.

It is not unworthy of.nOtice, that while BUONA,
'ARTS is granting licenses to his own subjeots to
trade direilly with England, -he compels his vassal
Kings to interdict all commerce with us more ri-
gorously than ever. If the Officers of the French
Customs are not allowed very strialy to search ves-
sels provided with licences, on their return to French
ports, it is because BWONAPARTR is anxious to pre-
serve the small remains of commerce which his

subieds still :possess, and to prevent agriculture
from being entirely destroyed. If, at the same
time, he redoubles the severity of his prohibi-
tions against commerce with Great Britain in
the countries governed by his crowned pre-
te :ts, it is, (independent of the wish of all
tyrants to oppress and impoverish a conquered
because he wishes that all the trade of his
vassaliStates should be carried on by French trier-

chants, and because by those in cans licenses will be-
come an important branch of public revenue in
V ince. it is quite obvious, upon the first view of
the subject, that the Americans must suffer by-the.,
pleasures recently adopted bygButmAPARTE, "and that
they are now tasting the bitter.fruits of the policy of
JEFFERSON, and the other advocates of France in
America,

We yesterday received some more Foreign Pa-
per?. ; they are nearly filled with accounts of dresses,
processions, illuminations, &c..&c. id consequence of
13110gAPARTE'S marriage. We have made some ex-
tracts from these papers, but our Readers will we are
sure forgive us, if we do not dwell upon a subject at
once so disgusting and so painful.

The perfe6l good order and regularity observed
by the British troops in their marches and quarters
in PorThgal is highly honourable to them, and must
prove satisfadory to the nation at large. The con-
duct of the Guards was particularly exemplary, as
appeirs by the toliciwing letter. -The commendation
and reward so properly bestowed by the high autho-
rity. whence it proceeds, cannot fail to have the best
effect upon the army :

" Vizeri, fan. tc, rBro.

" have taken frequent occasions of stating
publicly the great satisfadion which the conduit of
the Guards has invariably given 'me—which satis-
faction has been renewed in the recent march
through Portugal, in which, as they were at the
head of the column, tli-ey set the example to the
other troops of the most orderly and regular
manner:

" I am anxious to testify this satisfaElion in 'a
manner which shall make an impression on the
.Non-commissionetrOfficers, and shall prove to them
that the attention they pay to their duty is not un-
obser‘ed by their superiors ; and if the 'Command •
iag Officers of the two battalions,of Guards will be
;kind as recommend a Serj,.Ont each, I will re-
immend them to vacant Ensigncies in the army.

MEDICAL BOARD.—Sir LUCAS PEPYS, late Phy-
sician-G,neral, and Mr. KEATE,. late Surgeon-Ge-
neral to the Army, have remonstrated against their
dismission, the foriner alleging, that to deprive him
of his office is to encroach on the prerogative of the
Crown ; and the latter, that nothing short of the
sentence of a Court Martial could justify his dis-
mission. Sir L. P. in his letter to the Secretary at
War, on this subject says,—" A Board of Gene-
ral Officers, determining on the medical arrange-
ments of the army, is n(4 more incompetent than a
fc, ()liege of Physicians to decide on the attack of a
