VIANA, AUGUST SO. • ,
Yesterday, at half past seven, in the itio' rnin ~%S.
telligence was received here from Qrtortd, 'broug
an extra courier. It mentions that a battle had,*
fought, which, it should seem, was the third vigil&
had taken place in the neighbourhood of Lisbon{' in
which Loison and five thousand Frenchmen werelett
dead in the field ; and Junot and Laborde were tairOtt
prisoners. The Generals were then on their way to
Oporto on foot; it being expressly added, that the
English General refused to allow Cl.diyant Duke
of Abrantes the licnoOrs usoally givp to a defiat4
ofj
adversary. If this be fact, it will appear that tbe
Allies, act in concert, in aiserting the dissimilarity ,

AMSTERDAM, SEPTEMBER t.
The night before last his Royal Majesty arrived in
this Capital, and was received with universal shouts
of joy by an-immense concourse of people.
A letter from Copenhagen, of the '23d ult. contains
the following intelligence :—On the 21st, early in the
morning, a convoy of about 60 sail of English mer-
chantmen sailed again through the Sound, in ballast,
escorted by 12 armed ships, and some gun-boats
•opened a brisk fire on them, as they were passing, to
competsome of the convoy to strike • but our fire was
Iso well answered by the enemy, that. the whole con-
voy came safely to anchor in Wealmel roads.
• PARIS, AUGUST 31.
Our newspapers state, that the State Messengers
whoiarrived on board the American ship, the 9th in-
stant, at Havre de Grace, openly declared, that the
Government of the United States has transmitted an
ultimatum to the Court of London, the principal con-
dition of which is, the Liberty of the Seas, and that
in case of this ultimatum not being acceded to by the
British Government, war is to be declared against
England by the United States.
SUPT. I.—Letters front Bourdeaux state, that Mar-
shal Ney has lately passed through that town, on his
way to the French army in Spain. Two cabinet couriers
arrived here yesterday, at the Office of the Minister
for Foreign Affairs. attended by two Messengers
from the King of Sweden.
ALGIERS, JULY Lt.

The expedition agaisst the Dey of Tunis has failed
of success, owing to ,a'revolt which took place in the
camp. The Aga, who commanded the expedition,
the Bey of Constantine, the principal officers, includ-
ing the brothers-in-law of the Dey have been murder-
ed. The present Dey was to be dethroned, and ano-
ther to be elected in his stead. The whole town was
,thrown into the utmost consternation, the Dey made
vreparation to escape to Europe, when a courier ar-
rived from the camp with intelligence, that the pria•

CONSTANTINOPLE, JULY 26.
Abut the beginning of this month an English fri-
te fell in with three Turkish ships of war, off Scy-
, and engaged them with uncommon spirit. The
;result of the- well contested action was, that one of our
dips was taken, the other two were obliged to bear
way for a-port to repair the damage which they had
sustained, but have not been heard of since. The in-
telligence has excited a very strong sensation in Smyr-
na, where the English had spread a report that the
British Government was on the point of making peace
frith the Porte.

of numerous camps to be, formed on the banks

We have this day laid before our Readers some .
farther extracts from the Spanish Papers, which
reached us on Saturday. Our limits do not allow of-
our offering any remarks ou these iocrestiag
nor do they require any.

THE CONTINENT.
Since our last we have received Mew ts th!
29th ult. inclusive. Hamburgh Papers to the 44121
and Dutch to the Bth instant, which we have give*
a variety of articles in the preceding columns.
From several of them it appears that France an 4
Austria are equally active in their preparations for
war. The Austrian army is represented as very for.
midabk, and in high condition. It consists of nine
divisions, under the command of the Arch -Dui*
Csaastas. • On the other hand the greater part of the
contingents of the Rhenish Confederation have been
called out, and are, it is said, hi perfect madiness to
march at an hour's notice--iate France! Austria
cannot be misled by such a route being announced
for these • troops—" Into France!"—what would they
do there ? The Danes have published a Proclarne:-
;ion on the subject, of the fortunate release of the
Spanish troops from Funen, in which their dread pf
incurring the displeasure of BONAPARTE is evident-in I
the false colouring attempted to be given to that most
, creditable and patriotic transaction.
But the most interesting article brought by these
papers—,indeed the most important document that
has appeared in the continental papers for some
months is one which appears in the Moniteur. of the
29th August.
In the form of comments which. the Moniker has„
deigned to offer upon some remarks which we offered.
on the state of the Continent, in the STAR of the Bth
ultimo, the Editor of the Moniteur (in other words,
the Government itself) has brought ender review
all the external relations of the French Empire
The movements of the French armies ; the state of
the kingdom of Naples; the report of the respective
departures of the Austrian and French Ministers from
Paris and Vienna, and the probability of .hostilities
'betivien these Powers ; the progress of the war in Fin-.
hind ; and lastly, which is of mere importance than
all that has preceded, the affairs cf Spain, are treated,
and discussed with all the point, ingenuity, and con-
fidence, that are peculiar to thif department of the.
Official 'apes. . • .1! •
The, object of this article, is, to persuade the Resit
dens of the Moniteur, that the Governments of France
and Austria 'nevor were on better tertnstharr they are
at.present ; that we no longer possess any influence
whatever at the Cott of Vienna; that the Emperot
FRANCIS is rzseltred to keep the promise 'which-he
made to Bomnearers in Moravia—that henever would
again make war upon Win ; and that the • reports
which had gone abroad, respect.ng the probability
an approaching rupture between the two Powers h.o*
been circulated merely for stock jobbing purposes. All
this may be true, but it is not easy to reconcile these
pacific assurances with* warlike movements and pre-
parations, which, it cannot be diputed, have mkest
place on one side and the other in Germany. One
cannot help observing also, in the tone of the aloft
'rations, a more than ordinary anxiety to convince tivt
public, that the relation* between the two countritti
ati on a pacific footing, which sufficiently indicate( '
the importance annexed to the friendship of Austria!
in the present conjunctures at the same time that
idea is touted with ,somewhat of a bullying air!
France being nble at the same time to make war both
against Austria and Spain.
As to Naples, drat.so awry: is deflated not to haW
been. in such a state of tranquillity for a century a sera,
a strong intimation of= attack upon Sicilyi and
our incapability to defend it, is also given. As to
boasted tranquillity , of Naples we have oulrto *Pr

find accempinied with an assurance, that" they ail

44 of Spain are irrevocably fixed," the change which
has taken place 44 having been already recognised by
the great Powers of the Continent." We should Ida

drid, and it will requite something snore than the
bare-assertion ofthe Monietur, to convince us that the
Emperor of 'AVSTRIA could be capable of such all.
set, we shall nut say of weakness, but of baseness.
We cannot avoid remarking here that the STAR of
the Bth ult. which has proved the eatue of this Zejsoi;
contained the first account of the defeat of Darer'? and
As surrender of his whole army. It is extremely mt.
table that to this circumstance may be ascribed the
necessity which the French Government at length
fend of saying something on the affairs of Spain.
The .following is the article alluded to. It de-
serves an attentive perusal:
FROM THE MONITEUR.
VOTES ON AN ARTICi.2 IR THE EVENING STAR OF AUGUST
BTllri RELATIVE TO THE PROBABILITY OF A WAR
TAKING PLACE BETWEEN FRANCE AND AI:tTRIA) AND
THE AFFAIRS OF SPAIN.
ig Numerous corps of French troops (says the STAIe), are al-
ready assembled at Strasburg and its environs, and orders have
ten given for the formation of an army of reserve."
Yon thiS passage, the Afonikur has the following
- • Ii•IS true that 40,000 men of the last con-

facis isieierits.of the Grind Army., and replace

tstithlislied rather than augmented by this
ileastue, whiCh certainly spews no hostile intention."

itioiikur says, 44 Never was the kingdom of Naples

'neatly well received there. General A.ndreossy is at

called."
The 5TA1L......" It appears, nevertheless, that he (NAPOLIttnt)
omits himself s'rong enough to maim •head against Spaii.mlo ,
Austria at the same time."
The Monitear.—" It is amusing to find it made a
doubt, whether France and her allies can at once
make war against Austria and Spain, when, without
allies, she has conquered four coalitions ten times
snore formidable. It does not signify : the English
would see with pleasure Austria make war, in the
same spirit as they excited the coalition of; Prussia,
though they clearly foresaw what would happen.—
. But they live from day to day. A war, which
should only last six months, will be always so much
.t-gained for them ; they never think of the. result,
' which can only render their situation vstnrse." •
The STAR.—" We ought to furnish the enemies of ifspeleen

The Moniteur.-.." England knows the close union

they left on the beach. As to Austria, peac;iesiine
maintained on the Continent,. because England his '1
there no influence. The contempt and hatred which
she inspires are common to all great Powers : all
have been her victims. Mr. Adair was driven from
Vienna on the day M. De Stahremberg returned from
London. The shipments made by England under
the American flag, which escorted English frigates
to Trieste, were repulsed and proscribed by a late
edict of Francis:ll. A good understanding between
Austria and France has never been interrupted.
" The obscure agents whom England pays, and
who conceal themselves among the crowd orknaves
who are pursued by the Police of all the Governments
in Europe, have reported at Vienna, that France
was about to make war upon Austria ; and at Paris,
that Austria was raising new armies to attack France.
Idle persons, eager fur news and strong emotions,
have been enabled by these dark rumours to imagine
marches and countermarches, and farm plans of, a
campaign equally frivolous ; but the two Cabinets'
have never ceased to maintain with each other the
most friendly relations.
" In the interview' 'which the Emperor had with
Francis IL in Moravia, the latter promised him, that
he would nevetlnake war on him more. This Prince
has proved that he will.keep his word. it is curioui
to see, that while the Cabinet of Austria assures and
' declaies that it has ig'Ood understanding with France,
and while• France EiUblishes -the same assurances—it
is curious, we say, to. see that this intriguing fiction,
which lives by stock jobbing, calumnies, and Illsels,
continues to 'disseminate disquietude-among peacea-
ble people. • •
" The affairs of Spain are irrevocably fixed. They
are acknowledged. by the great Powers of the Cootie
nent. If we have been deceived in. the hope of eon-
ducting that people to a better order of things, with-
out disturbance, without disorder, without war,,lt is
a victory which the'Ge.k

Letters from Lora COLLINGWOOD'S fleet state, that
his Lordship was preparing to co-operate in a most
vigorous manner with the proposed expedition under

blockade of the Spanish ports, in colsequence of the

mand of an additional number of ships of war for this
purpose.

WO SEA-HORSE of Stguns, Captain STEWART, arrived
At Malta the 26th July last, having in company an
• se Turkish frigate of 50 brass guns and 700
Aghieb the capittred after a most gallant action
of four hours, in which it is stated that the captured-
frigate: had near 300 men killed, and 200 wounded;
and that the SEA-nonse had only 6 men killed and 8
trlpivaded.,neTorkish ship, though said to hard
ireaiiii.very perfect state before the action, was when
brought.in a most complete wreck,. having scarcely a,.
sounittimber or plank in her. If we are correctly
infoiriiisd, the gallantry of this action is equal to any
atas occurred in the present or past wars.. It is
stated, that, for the pnrpose of-capturing the SEA-
iii*sz, three Turkish frigates came out ; but though
the inoqualitpwas so great, it did not deter the Bri.,
tish tars from accepting the challenge; and the conse-
quence was, that the first broadside from the 4z.5..
HORSE sent one of.the frigates to the bottom ; she 'then
.closed with the largest, and so roughly handled her,
that the.third, fearing a similar fate, ran away, leav•
ing the victors to carry off•their prize in triumph.—
The captured ship is stated to be of very large dimer.-
'sions, and:very superior in size and strength to the
SEA4fORSE.--Camoin the DRAGON, of 74 guns, from
the Channel feet.'
