l'H E D ECTIO NA RY of ARTS, SCIENCES,
I- and WORDS, unch•r the title of PANTALOGIA, is in-
tended to be comprised in Ten Volumes, Rgyal Octavo, and is
publishing in Monthly parts, at 6s. etch. The large sized sheet
the Proprietor has adopted, allows room for the introduction of
much useful matter On each page. By the incorporation of
a Dictionary of Words with that of Arts and Sciences, the
trouble of turning to any other Dictionary is entirely avoided, and
the introduction of comprehensive treatises on the principal
branches of Art and Science, augment the pleasure as well as the
benefit to be derived front the perusal of this work. The treatises
on Algebra, Anatomy, Angling, Arithmetic, Astronomy, Botany,
Brick making, and Bridges, contain much Historical, Theoreti-
cal, and Practical Inform ttion, not to be found in any Encyclo-
ptedia extant ; and many of the single articles, such as Acade-
mies, Acids, Action, Acrostition, Air, Age of Animals, are
at once highly entertaining and richly instructive. Errors copied
instoneasion, from one Dictionary to another, are here corrected
—and the accuracy at which the Editors have seditiously aimed,
is accompanied by corresponding neatness in the printing, an.l
t legance in the plates, winch vi ill antrunt to nearly four hundred,
and of which, all those devoted to aubjects of Natural History
are beautiful y and correctly coloured atter Nature. This under-
taking is conducted by

The above Premises are truly desiraole' as well for ibe.kind of
business which has been carried on therefor a century past, as
for the speculator, the'wbole covering nearly an acre of Ground,
and in a situation where the view cannot be interrupted, and
where (if divided) small buildings Lots would be eagerly sought

joining the turnpike road leading to Gloucester, Cheltenham,
Bath, Bristol, and the West of England, from which places
Stage Coaches and Waggons pass daily to Birmingham, Liverpool,
and the North. The business of a Coal Dealer, or any other

A vessel has arrived at Plymouth from Seville, bnt
having had a passage of 13 days, has brought no late
news from the theatre of the war ; nor have any ac-
counts more recent than those already before the public
been received through any other channel. Ministers,
we understand, were informed by the last dispatches
that have been received, that Lord PAGET, with 1510
horse, had set out from Sir DAVID BAIRD'S army t
endeavour, by forced marches, to make a junction
with Sir Joux MOORE. This was determined on at
the time when it was considered as loubtful, whether
General HOPE could effect his junction ; and when
all the three columns were separated, as to be each in
danger of attack. If this detachment shall happily
join Sir JOHN Moo/a, he will then be strong in c:.-
valry, as it is now known, as we stated some days ago,
that General HOPE had joined Sir Jonx„ at Sala-
manca. Thus reinforced, there is some probability
tli:.t General MOORE will be able to make good his
n•reat—it is even possible that he may be joined by
the army of M. de ROMANA. The situation of our
troops is however a hazardous one ; but as they must
long before this sime have learn: what dependence
they might place upon the Spanish armies, we may
hope that they have not been negligent in providing
for their own safety.

By the Convention concluded between the Swedes
and Russians, and which we yesterday laid before
our Readers, the former may be considered as having
completely given up Finland to the enemy. The
Swedes retire beyond the river Kiemi, the utmost limit
of that province. Will Russia be satisfied with this
acquisition ? We fear nut. The Emperor ALEXAN-
DER seems to have identified himself with the interests
of NAPOLEON, to leave any hope that he will put limits
to his views against Sweden ; but in his future opera-
tions he may be expected, from the situation of the
country, and thz means of defence possessed by his
Swedish Majesty, to meet with difficulties not easily
to be surmounted. Indeed, if we may credit the
accounts from Stockholm, the people in Sweden are
no way depressed by the loss of Finland. The fol-
lowing letter was received by the mail of yesterday.

" STOCKHOLM, DEC. 6.

" Since the last post, we haie re:cciv-d the news that the Swe-
dish army in Finland, find:ng it impo..rible to preserve its position
at Ulvalsorg, has ern ?red into a Convention with the Russians to
quit Finland entii cly. The Swedes retire to the west side of the
river Kicmi, which you wal find near Sornea, with -.11 their ar.,
tillery, benne, ammunition, &e. they were allowed ter. days for
evacuating the town of L'hatorg, and a farther suitable period to
reach the river Kiemi ; and after the whole have arrived at the
latter pseint,the boundary between Sweden and Finland, an armis-
tice for fourteen &rya is to exist. These terms are very honour-
able for the Swedes, for the latter Led, in effective men, nos above
7000 ; whereas the Russians orrosed to them were nearly cO,OOO
strong. The les: of Finland, during this war, bas long been ex-
pected, and the above intellite nce has, therefor; not occasicncd
the sensation here which might have been surposed. I beg you
will not allow yourself, to be alarmed by any foolish reports, of the
Russians penetrating farther into Sweden."

The decree of Louis NAPOLEON, dated the 9.7 th ult.
given in the STAR of yesterday, is intended to increase
the difficulties which it has been the policy of NAPO-
LEON to throw in the way of British commerce.—But
Britain is not the only country against which she
levels her commercial regulations and restrictions.
For some time he condescended to flatter the Ame:
rican Government, and affected extraordinary ten-
derness towards her trading interests. With these
professions let the Americans compare the subjoined
letters, and learn to form an estimate of French Jibe=

rality.
Extract of a letter from Captain OWING, of the
American brig President, from the Canary Islands,
dated St. Valery, November 28, 1808 :

- • .
" It is with the utmost regret I inform you of my
being captured on the 17th inst. close in with the Isle
of Wight, and lent into this place, and have ever sincC
been guarded at an inn, and am not allowed to go
out of my room without some person to guard me, a
thing that has never before been known in France ;
but I impute it to there not being any neutral vessel
brought in here before."
Extract of another letter from Captain LEE, of the
American vessel Mary, dated Boulogne Castle, De-
cember 6, 1808:
• '44 I have the misfortune to acquaint you, that we
were recaptured on the l)th ult:. by the French lug
