occurred, •otherwise it would have been announced

in a very unequivocal manner from the IF‘eo'cli

An article in a Morning Paper-of ti;i4 day,, states
a 'report that an addition is likely to lie made to'tlie
present Administration, by the introdu6tion of Lord
Stt~:unv7 ft and. his fri,nds to power.

This report,

we believe, is entitled to about as much credit as is

v.ppliedble to similar reports in the same quarter.

No dire& account could be obtained respeEting
the Princess AMELIA on Saturday,
,but the generl
answer was, that she was much the same as on Fri-
day :• yesterday, however, it was said she had two
hours "sleep in thF; ci4itt, and was a little better. Dr.
Poet, and Mr. DuNi)As lett Wi.,clor on Saturday
morning, leaving Sir HENRY. HALFOIID and Dr.
BAILIE in close attendance : the two former return-
ed to Windsor again in the evening.
The KING did.not attend Divine Service yester.•
day rtioi-ntn4et 5/. George's Chapel, as is his constant
practice. The only branches of the. Royal Family
who attended, were the Dnke of YORK', and Prin-

The sermon was preached by the Rev. Mr. atay.

'By. the Heligoland Mail, which arrived on Sa-
turday, we have letters and papers from various parts
of the' Continent ; tie tetteis rz.rma..y t. the
date Of • the 17th insta-q. ' Those from Konigs-
bunth are to the 6th of this month, and contain
nothing of a political, although much of a commer-
cial chara&er. The sdvices fratii Metnel, dated the,
end of September, apprize us that 'for the present
no ships under any flag whatever :are permitted • to
enter that harbour. By the same opportunity we
have a Decree of NAPOLEON, dated October the 3d,
from Fontainbleau, under which 'as•sa concession in
favour of the Danes, it is allowed that all kinds of
colonial produce remaining in Holstein may enter
the French line of Customs by. the way of Halm-
buN,h, on payment of the duties requited. by the
Tariff of the et It of August last.
BERNADOTTE left Hamburgh under adischarge of
artillery, on his N,v 4y to Sweden. And it seems .he
has prudently determined to proceed as far .a 3

cruizers as much as possible.

. Letters have been receivel from the coast of
,Bispy to the 6th. instant. Their contents:arF of a
most pleasing nature. The patriots of Navarre, Ar-
lagon, .and Old Castile, are daily gaining an acces-
sion to, their numbers, and their daring spirit; ill
`restrained by the proxiMity of the'French; and'un-
-.subdued by any reverses, was hobrly Meditating
"important 'achievements, calculated at once to strike
terror into their foes,- to excite a pia it of resistance
among theirciuntryMen, and to shed -a lustre over
their Own cause.

Aiconsiderable treasure, destined for the pay of
the French arit,ies, was on the t4th Olt, intercepted
between Coza and Aureza, •on the great road lead-
ing from Bayonne to Madrid. The escort corn-,
prised
.300 infantry, and 150 cavalry ; and owing to
informatton which the Governor of Gomara had,
received, he had thought fit to increase it to 600
men. The patriotic force was barely 550; and its
Commander, • Don Espana Mena, therefore pru-
dently chose to 'make the attack under cover of the,
night,/ The enemy, ttimugh taken by burprize,
made a vigorous resistance; • but being driven back,
twelve waggons with the treasure were Carried off
by the patriots, 'as well as 60 prisoners, 30 hOrses,
arms, ammunition, &c.—The boy thos'rnade was
calculated at 200,000 crowns—a greater sum we
betile,th,tn has-Yet been taken by so small a force
from the enemy, and which must tend still further
to exhaust his resources. We have 'also before us
raticulars of a well-arranged plan, for surpris-
ing the town and garrisr)n of Grimara, which was
frustrated on the eve of its/execution, owing to the
enemy being apprised, by a spy, of the intention of
the patriots. The juxta-position of this latter place,
being mid-way between Bayonne and Madrid, ap-,
pears to have first invited the designs' of the patriots,
as enabling them' more efleaually to cut off the
enemy's principal communication with France.—
Though this, as well •as some 'other plans,• had
proved abortive, one good, had resulted from the
alertness and activity of the Guerrillas ; the enemy,
inskead of eetachtng troops to reinforce the various
ctitps under Massena, Victor, O'Donnell, and Se-
bed found it necessary to retain a number
cot d,lence of, the Northern Provinces.

shipping were ordered to leave that port,. and -to

England, in consequence of the Apprehension.. that
the Fre“ch would, enter Oporto next day. All
communication between Lisbon and Oporto had
beep: cut off."—Upon this intelligence we have to
observe; that communications were received in town

from Oporto on Monday last to a later date than the

that Jti:siofs corps, which
