second time attempted to burn the town of Reggio,
in Calabria, under the pretence of preventing it
from being an alloin to the privateers which de,troy

fully forced to go away.

LONDON,
THURSDAY, APRIL 26, 1810. •

This morning we received, by the Cadiz Mail, a
series of Spanish Papers. The news still continues
to be most satisfa6tory, The attacks upon the French
are made without intermission, in every quarter,
and the consequence has been that they have been
compelled to rett eat from the Southern and Eastern
parts of Spain, with quite as much rapidity as they
advanced, for the purpose of concentrating their
forces. These Papers contain the account of their
retreat from Valencia towards Arragon. It does
not appear that the French_ have yet made any se-
rious attack upon Cadiz. We are strongly inclined
to suTea that the French by no means feel them-
selves comfortable In their position before that city,
and we shall not be at all surprised to hear of their
retreat tcmards Seville.

We have made some 'further Extrads from the
French and Dutch Papers that arrived yesterday.
It appears, notwithstanding all, the pains that the
enemy take to conceal it, that we have
.been ,very
stiecessfal, both .in the Mediterranean ,and in the
Adriatic. The King of Pausst A has been' forced by
BUONA PARTE. to issue some more Decrees, .prohibi-.
tory of all commerce with England ; Decrees, which,
we will venture predi&, like all the for Mer ones
issued for the same purpose, will add to the wretch-
edness of the unfortunate people groaning under the
rod of the TJrant, withour in any degree injuring
the, commerce of Great Britain. Poor JULIO:4E
BUONAPARTE has been forced, literally, to raise an
army of - Custom-house Officers to protect his do-
minions from the invasion of British inerChandize
and Manufadures. No less than twelve brigades of
them have been embodied, and we suppose .will be
place&under the command of .a Field-Marshal at
least.

Some more French and Dutch 'Papers arrived last
night, dated one day.later than those which arrived
in the morning. The only article of Any interest
which they contain is one from Vienna, which re-
pots, thereport of overtures having been made by
France to this Countiy for a Negotiation, and adds,
that in the case of their being accepted by the Bri-
tish Government, Connt MeTTERNICH was to pro-
ceed frau). Paris to London, to represent the Empe-
ror'of Austria as - Mediator. With respectto the
propriety of accepting the Emperor, of Austria as a
Mediator, in his present situation, we made some
observations yesterday. From a Mediatoi so cir-
cumstanced, we could neither hope for impartiality.
ii the Negociation, nor a guarantee for any terms
that Fright be, agreed upon.

Just betbre this Paper was pot to Press we re-
ceived German P.yqs to the t4th inst. from which.
we have apdc the foliowing'extraas:

Four regiments of infantry which were hitherto

stationed on the Inn, will return back to the Rhine

NUREMBERG, APRIL 3.—Letters from Baireoth

ty the king of Bavaria has been officially notified to
I the Intendant COMBE STEYOS, by his Government,
and that Bavarian Commissioners are expeaed there

every day.
To-day at noon the General of Division, FRIAND,
arrived here with his staff. A part of the 33d Regi-
ment of the Line is to be quartered here.

VIENNA) MARCEL 3 1 .—Since last week, when
the Imperial French Ambassador Count OTTO de-
livered to their Majesties the Emperor and Empress,
two letters from NAPOLEON the Great, written
with his own hand, the greatest satisfa&ion has
appeared to pervade the. whole Court. The day
attr a courier was sent off, who took the road to
Italy and, as it is concluded from certain circurn-

stances, is gone to Palermo. So general a joy has.
not prevailed in Vienna since the year 1792..
PETERSBURGH, MARCH 38.—The Envoy Extra-
ordinary, and Minister Plenipotentiary of the King
of Westphalia, at this Court, Count Buscu; set
out to-day for Kouigsburg to meet his family.

East India House, when Captain J. B; SAMSON, of
the ship Earl St. Vincent, took levee of the Court,
previous to departing for Bengal direct.—The Court
adjourned at six o'clock till to-morrow.

Letters have been received from Teneriffe of the
151 h March. By these it appears that the town of
Santa Cruz had been for upwards.of three days in a
state of anarchy and confusion, and that, had it not
been for the firmness and resolution of some of the
wealthy inhabitants, no one-can say where it would
have ended. It appears, that in the first week of
Lent the very lowest class of people began to coi-
led in large bodies, and commenced clamouring
about the great number of French prisoners then in
the Island. Accordingly, as their numbers increased,
they boldly demanded the heads of two Frenchmen,
for some time established in - the Island. 'They
marched in a body of about 600 to the house of
Mr. COLOGAN j and, notwithstanding the entreaties
of this Ge; Liman and the Governor, they seized a
Mr. BREZAN, his Cierk, and after assassinating him
in the most cruel manner, dragged his remains
through the streets, and then _went in search' of a
Mr. BROAL; a schoolmaster, who had taken refuge
in the Mole Battery. Having found him there,' they
tore him from the Governor and Alcalde's side, who
in vain endeavoured to afford him proteCtion. He
was treated in the same manner as Mr. BREZAN, and
afterwards tied by one foot to the stern of a vessel
in La Plaza del Charu. Another party of these
miscreants marched to a small village at a shortlis-
lance from the town, where some French prisoners
we,e quartered; but the inhabitants, apprised of
their approach, armed themselves in defence of the
isoners, and refused them t ntrance into the vil-
lage, and they were compelled to return without
et-feeling their purpose.—By this time tie wealthy.
inhabitants, having armed themsel s, repaired to
one of their meetings, seized 40 of the principal
ringleaders, and lodged them safely in the Castle,
which effort had the good effe& of restoring tram.
quility to the place. The principal merchants of
the Island express a wish that some transports may
be sent by the English Government for the removal
of the French prisoners, the number of which,
amounting to 1600, give them some uneasiness.

The Tenth and Eleventh Reports of the Comm's-
sioners of Military Inquiry have, been printed ; the
fortvr relates to the Royal Milifary_College, and the
latter to the departments of the Adjutant• General
and Quarter-Master-General. They are very volu-
minous. We shall take an opportunity of giving
some Extraas from them.

The outstanding licenses to import corn, meal,
pulse,. and burr stones, from France and Holland,

This .day a General Meeting of the Freeholders
of the County of Middlesex takeS place at the Mer-
maid at Hackney, conformably 'to the Sheriff's, no-
tification, to consider of the steps necessary to be

and Mr. GALE JONES'S imprisonment under the
warrant of the Speaker of the House of Commons.
A considerable number of deer lately escaped from
the park, at Newick, many years in the possession-of
the late Sir ELIJAH INIPEY, and several have been
hunted and killed; by persons of the neighbour-
hood, upon "whose lands they had trespassed, as a
matter or right, under the vulgar error, that the law
would justify them to the extent of such pursuits.
