SOLEM QUIS MUIR& VALSUM AUDSAT

All' the accounts from Spain represent.the victo-
‘ries recently obtained by the'French as by' no weans
So injurious to the Spaniards as they were stated to
be in the French Journals. The French, it appears,
'suffered very much, particularly in their contest vvitli
the Army •of La Mancha, and it is, said that the
Spanish artillery kept up a terrible 4ire, and steps
away whole regiments of the enemy. We have
before stated, that the French had artfully stripped
their prisoners,. in order to induce those Spaniards
who were before jn their power, to believe that the
Sni,rerne Junta were inattentive to the wants of the
Ariny. This is,,however, but a poor arti-
fi::e; as it could' only succeed for a very short time,'
end niuSt add contempt to the horror in which, they
mold their oppressors.

'the fAowing Letter, which mien to this cir-
conritance, appears in several of the Spanish Jour7

An Officer of our army, who was made pri-
soner in the battle of Ocana, having escaped from
the harOS of the Enemy, presented himself at head-
qoarte.ts in La Carolina, and informed the General;.
that the French, after treating the prisoners with
severity, had- stripped them; in order to show them
in that state of nakedness and misery to the inhabit-
ants of Madrid, and lo make the latter suppose that
the whole of the artny pf the Patriots was in the like
condition of wretchedness. The same Officer adds,

that he saw the French employing all the labourers
they could collea, to gather the-,deead,, who-were
heaped in three piles as high as the honses, and
others were crowded into the church-yards. This
,c;rcunistance, the Writer adds, tends to confirm the
general report,
,that the,French had suffered greatly
in the late coal& ; and he endeavours, to 'chew, in
the sequel, that " their numbers will be considera-
bty by -repeated battles, that whether

ti-.0611a11 be Via Oil or vanquished, they wil,l be dis-
appi:iteci in their project of the subjugation of
Spain."

We are sorry to learn that there is no truth in
the contradiction of the reportit.d death of Mr. BA-
TH R ST, the British Envoy to the Coort of Prussia.
f, is generally suppoied .that that Gentleman was
tot:(.lc./ed by the French at a town .betweso -Ham-
and Berlin. His body has notheen found,

however,, pleased to ohserve, that when the corres-
p(mdence betwecti Mr: JACKSON and Mr. SMITH,
pnb!i•died, the OppOst ion Papers in this country
did not advocate the cause of America; nay, some of
. •
them had candour epough to express theirspprobation
of the conduct of Mr. JACKSON. A Paper however,

of this morning, without condescending cto eater in.,
to an inve-oig,ation Of the Correspondence, without

assigning any yeasotifi, :or offering any argument,
lias thought prober to make a: violeut'attack upon
Mr. JACKSON; and to apply language to the King's
Arnhassad6r, such as, we believe, never was, ap-
'plied before, Mr. -JACKSON'S conduct is 'said to
have been " OUTRAGEOUS and UNPARDON-
ABLE.r, Upf)ti -what authority is this heavy charge
Jg-Jinst that _&,utlernan ? Not upon the atitho-
-
‘rity of the Americam, for they, with aii their.coarse-
ness, and 'hostility to this country,; have not applied
such epithets to his'conduct. This'is not an unim-

pohant .or, trig pious charg,-, ; the di:tferences between
this country and Anwrica tray lead to hostilities;
it is, therefore, no :fight matter, either for the cha-
rcaer of the Countly or of Mr. JACKSON, to have
it • asserted that his conduct; as representing the
King of Great Britain, was outrageons.aul urpar-.
donable: This is.a most grave and serious..accusa-
.
tion, and those who' made Ware bound. is " justice
and in honour, to state the ground upon which the
Charataer of the-Nation, ani that of its. Minister,
have been thus grossly assailed.

Familywere toasted in ,succession, and many Consti-
tutional toasts. follovied.. The Chairman, in pro-
posing to drink the health of Mr. WEST, etpressed
much regret at the cause of: his absence,
.and pro-
nounced a high panegyric on the professional. and
:private character of that Gentlenlan, which e.xeited,
the zealous approbation of the Company. - -In
'speaking of LIE BRITISH INSTITUTION AS likely to
be of considerable service to the Ar 4, Mr. FLAX..
MAN alluded to Mr. SHEE, who has lately produced
an adtnirable plan for theadvancement of the Arts,

After the British Institution had been drank as a
toast, Mr. TRESHAM took the opportunity of 'rising,
in order to bear testimony to the merits of Mr.
SuEE's plan, and the general excellenee of his
talents and charailer, and concluded with proposing
his health.

As. soon as Mr. SHEE returned io his seat, lie
he made a very eloquent speebh in, acknowle*
merit of the high honour which he had received;
in the warmth with which his. .health had been
drank, and, modestly referring to' the wprk which
had been so favourably mentioned; concluded with
wishing,prosperi;Y to the company and the Arts, of
