tiOn ; he in numbers. We have only 15,00'0, Ice
has 40,000 men. We ;ire in no fear. The army
is under arms all night, and-they sleep all day.
" MURAT embarks his army every night at sun-
set, and disembarks them in the morning. He has
two regiments of cavalry which he declares he will.
swim'over—this can easily be effetted, provided his
infantry make good their landing. I hate often
seen horses swim across the Straits of Messina.
We bear Murat's army is getting sickly and discon-
tented ; he has hung many for expressing their se3-
timents too freely ; we can see wiih .the naked eye
the wretches banging on the gibbets, at least 30 of
then, four of them officers.
" JULY 25.—1 am just informed another attack

has been made by our mortar-boats, and with such
effect, that the enemy have moved their encamp-
ments farther off. Some of the enemy's boats have
deserted to us, and some we have destroyed. A vast

number of 'their men have been killed and wounded;
on our side we had a very little loss."

The Morning Paper which contained the article
respeaing the Madras Mutiny, upon which we yes-
terday submitted some observations to our Headers,
has this day thought proper to accuse us of "an
unfair mode of dealing," becau>e we did not give the
whole of 'the article in question. We are much Sur
prised that such a censure should have come from a
Public Print, for if the principle were to be allowed,
no Public Journal would have an opportunity of mak-
ing any observations at all upon temporary matters, as

its coluMns must be filled with the documents them-
selves, and there would be no room for the remarks
which they might naturally suggest till the subject
would be stale. We yekterday animadverted upon
all the essential points, and instead of blaming us
for not inserting the whole of a long article, it
would have been wiser in the Print alluded to, to
have shewn the fallacy of our observations, if
they were not well founded. Now that our atten-

tion is again attra6led towards the document in ques-
tion, we think it proper to observe, that if it was
really the production of two senior Dire tors of the
East India Company, we conceive that they have
a,Sled with a great want of decorum, and much dis-
respect towards the general body of Direaors, in
submitting such a Paper to the Public at large, • and
dating it from the India House, as if it were an
Official Document. We are as little disposed as
the. Newspaper alluded to, to give any positive bpi-
nions on the comparative merits of Sir GEORGE
BARLOW and Mr. PETRIE j but as the conduEt of
the former has received the sandion and approbation
of so enlightened a charaaer as Lord MINTo, with
• every advantage of local information, and as that
sanetion and approbation have been fully confirmed
at home, it would ill become us to think slightly of
the decision of so wise and able a Statesman as his
Lordship, and so respectable a body as the Court of
Diretlors.

The communication with Malaga has been greatly
interrupted since the occupation of tl.it port by the
French, and Many misrepresentations have been
made from accounts on insufficient authority.
A letter has come to our hands from thence, dated
the end of July, 'in which it is said that no new
duties had been imposed since the French controul
there, but it was supposed that the enemy would
avail himself of such a source of revenue as Soon as
he could do so with anyprospe& of advantage. No
further contributions had been recently demanded:
The Pole's in garrison concluded themselves with
strict discipline, and to the general approbation of
the inhabitants. Some Spanish Officers had been
sent from Cadiz to the neigbouhood of Marbella, a
few leagues to the West of Malaga, to. organize the
patriotic peasantry in that vicinity.
We have information from .a most respectable
quarter that 50,000 stand of arms are immediately
to be sent to Spain, one, half to Gallicia, and the'
remainder to Valencia and Catalonia.
Some additional letters have reached us horn the
Rio de la Plata, by which we learn that three of the
Judges of the Real Audiencia, and the Fiscals of the
Civil and Criminal Courts, accompanied CISNEROS,
when he was disposed of on board the Dart sctn
destined for Cadiz. It is asserted tluit the deter-
mination of the new Junta to get rid of these,Func-
tionaries arose from their interfertnce I,vith the Pro-
visional Govel\nment, and from their endeavours to
excite dissafisfadion among the people. The Viceroy
was allowed in his retirement an annuity of *20,000
dollars,. which was equal to halt his salary. l'he
Reget.i, who from his office succeeds to the go-
vernMent in case of the death of. the Viceroy,' and
who ;vas President of the Real Audienea, was al-
lotved to remain at Buenos Ayres, not only on ac-
count of his age and infirmities, but froth the ge-
neral approbation of his conduct. The opposition
at Montevideo to the new order of things was attri-
buted entirely to the interference of the Spaniards
_residing at Buenos Ayres.
The Deal Volunteer Artillery Companies bad a
field day on-. Sunday last, and were inspected by
Lieut.-Colonel WEBB (the Inspecting Field Officer
,of the DistriCt), who highly approved of their dis-
-ciplineand appearance. They afterwards proceeded
to Walmet Castle, where they were r:Niewed and
inspected by the Right Honourable the Lord War,
den of the Cinque' Ports, who, alter a most minute
inspection, was also pleased to•ex'press his entire
approbation at the very efficient state Of the Corps.
A penny post-office has been establihhecl in Bath
and the neighbouring villages.

THE LYCEUM.—This Theatre was opened again
last night, for the regular performers, who aEt
under the authority of the Drury-lane Patentees,
with the addition of a few recruits from Mr.
ARNOLD'S Summer Company. The play was The
Hypocrite. We have before animadverted' on the
merits of the performance, in "which DOWTON was
conspicuous for characteristic truth in Cantwell,
MATHEWS for ludictOus accuracy, in representing
the manners and attainments of some of the lower
order of Methodist Preachers in Mow-worm, and
Mrs. EDWIN for spirit and gaiety in charlotte. It is
to be regrated, however, that this lively Actress
will not endeavour'. to acquire- " a temperance"
which may " give smoothness " to her humour, as
it is in general somewhat too boisterous and violent.
A Mr: WALDEGRAVE made his fir3t appearance, in
Seyward. He possesses a tolerable face and.tignie,
and has the rare merit of speaking naturally. He
supported the part with evident modesty, good
sense, and feeling.—The Farce was Tile Mayor of
Garratt, which was very well supported by Dow-
Tom, RUSSELL, WEWITZER, and Miss MELLON, in'
the Major, Sneak, Heel-tap, and Mrs. Sneak.—
The house was crowded.—The Theatre has been
newly' painted and decorated during the very short
period since the closing of the Summer Theatre,
and exhibited a light, pleasing, and elegant aspect.
