SPANISH PAPERS.

The atincthiving got round to the Southward has
brought in several vessels from Spain. Yesterday
the SEMIRAMIS, with dispatches for Government, ar-
rived at Portsmouth from Corunna. The Nione, the
JUPITER., and la LOIRE, from Spain, have also readied
the same port. By these vessels we have received
Spanish Papers to the 9th instant, (min whiCh we
make the subjoined extracts :
Letters of the 12th inst. from Santander have
been received by these vessels, which state, that it
appeared by the last accounts from General BLAKE'S
army, that they were still in possession of Bilboa,
beyond which place they had driven the French two
leagues, with the loss of from two to three thousand
men. The date of the accounts from BLAKE'S army
is not mentioned in the above letters, but it is thought
that it must be later than the aff tir of the 24th
ult. and must refer to some new action. fiowever
this may be, the accounts could hardly be so far
back as to leave a probability that the French ac-
counts from Bayonne, of the 4th inst. stating the
French to be again in possession of Bilboa, are well
founded.

Since writing the above we have learnt from a
letter brought by the JCPITER, dated Corunna, the
11th instant, that LE FEMME attacked General
BLAKE rather unexpectedly on the 31st ult. and
gained some advantage over him. BLAKE retreated,
thinking the French were about to attack his rear ;
but he returned to the charge again on the 4th or
sth, And defeated the enemy, making prisoners of
several hundred men, and taking part of their artillery.
Troops were coming up on all sides to strengthen
BLAKE'S army—but the appointment of the Marquis
de la ROMANA to the command of that army, has
created some ill-will--The French, in their retreat,
seized children, and obliged the parents to purchase
them.

lealle effects.
OCTOBER 21.—1 t appears from a report of the
Under-Intendant of Castellamare, that three English
ships; armed with howitzers, have been thrown upon
the coast of Sorento. Besides the sailors who manned
them, there was found on board the vessels eight offi-
cers and a lady, who has been placed in a private
house at Sorento. They have been treated with all
the attention due to the unfortunate. The vessels
have been drawn on shore, and the sailors detained.

The brig, Capt. DteKm, arived here from
Jamaica, on Tuesday last, to relieve the TWEED,
Captain SvstoNns, which sailed the next day. The
Amoco, Capt. DIGBY, touched here about a fortnight
ago, and sailed a few days afterwards for La Guira.
The CHERUB sloop, Capt. RAVENSHAW, arrived here
yesterday from St. Thomas's, to which island she
will return next week.

The French have already fitted out several priva-
teers against the Spanish trade, and these seas are
soon expected to swarm with them, which will render
necessary an additional number of British cruisers.
An attack, indeed, on this island is by no means im-
probable, if the enemy Meditate any attempt upon
the Main, to which this is the key. We are in a very
respectable state of defence, the Governor having
visited all the out-ports, and strengthened such as
were supposed to be the most vulnerable. We look
for another regiment to reinforce the garrsion, with
a strong detachment of artillery.

P4RLIAMENTARr PROCEEDINGS.

HOUSE OF LORDS, PuttyAtx 4.
The Bi hop of Hereford took the oaths and his
seat.

ORDER., Ut 00IDICIL.
Lord AUCKLAND gave notice of his intention
to make a motion to-morrow se'nnight! respacting
the recent Orders in Council. He wished it to be un-
derstood, that it was his intention, on making this mo-
tion, to bring into discussion the different bearings of
those Orders, as they related to neutral powers, to
commerce, manufactures, Ste. and that he should also
take notice of what appeared to him to be contradic-
tions in the Orders. He said this in order that it
might not be imputed to him, that there was any
want of candour on his part, and if his Majesty's Mi-
nisters wished for any further information respecting
the object of his motion, he was ready to•givoit.
AMERICA.

Lord GRENVILLE said, he had a motion to
make, to which he was not aware there could be any
objection. He had heard with deep regret that pas-
sage in his Majesty's speech which stated that the Pre-
sident of the United States of America had refused to
ratify the treaty concluded with the American Pleni-1
potentlaties. If it were to be understood that thei
United States would be satisfied with nothing less
than our giving up our maritime tights, he was one of
those who would contend that we ought rather tell
perish in the contest than give up what would disablei
us from maintaining any contest. He hoped, how-1
ever, that there yet remained the means of concilia-1
tion consistent with the true interests of both states.'
It was said by some, that America would lose much
more by a war with this country, than this country
could by a war with America. The greater risk in
such a contest might be incurred by the United
States ; but a calculation of the greater or less loss
to be sustained in such a contest was one which he
could not at all enter into. He understood that there
was an inaccuracy in that part of the speech to which
he had alluded, and that the President of the United
States had not the power of rejecting the treaty,
which could only be the act of two-thirds of the Se-
nate. If this were the case, a new and a very impor-
tant view would be opened with respect to the Orders
in Council, in as much as they were a violation of two
of the articles of that treaty. Thus, notwithstanding
the chscussipps on that treaty were still pendingitas
he believed the President not having rejected, or nut
having the power of rejecting the treaty; Ministers
had advised his Majesty to issue orders, which vio-
lated two of The articles of that treaty. ::He would
not now, however, enter into the question; resßeiting
the policy of these Orders. His object was to obtain
an okial Fon pc Or President's Message to eon-

FOREIGN INTELLIGENCE.

VILLA REAL., DEC. 10.
You are already acquainted with our misfortune
from the arrival of the French army in this kingdom,
and the emigration of the 'Royal Family to the Bra-
zils. The French entered our country as lambs, but
have now shewn themselves worse than ravenous and
bloody wolves. Twenty thousand of them are now
at Lisbon, and their number in the country will be
increased to 60,000, including the Spaniards. It is
confidently reported, that General Junot has de-
manded a reinforcement of 40,000 more French
troops, to prevent any insurrection in the country.—
I cannot comprehend what this Devil is afraid of; as
neither he nor his army have experienced the smallest
oppositiOa. He 144 just publiAlted a Proclamation,
forbidding, any inhabitant to have fire,arnts in his
possession, on pain of military execution ; and every
person is enjoined to give in a return of all English
manufactures they have, under the penalty of paying
ten times the value of what they may attempt to
conceal. At Lisbon the Friars have been turned out
of their convents, which are converted into barracks
for the French troops ; and a first contribution, of
one million of cobs, has been demanded from the city,
for the,purpose of clothing the French, who are mostly
naked. We are obliged patiently to submit to all
manner of excesses which they commit, till GOD is
pleased to deliver us. I wish I could arrange my af-
fairs, then I should immediately fly from this devoted
country.

ALGIERS, NOV. 19, 1807.
Within these last few days we have been terribly
alarmed by an earthquake, which has been generally
felt for many miles round. Yesterday there v;ai ano-
ther slight shock, but its consequences were not so se-
rious as those of the former. The first overthrew .a
number of houses in various parts of the town, and
rendered many others uninhabitable. The house I oc-
cupy is rent from top to bottom, and I have not slept
with my clothes off for two days and nights. And all
the inhabitants, Christians and Moors, as well as the
Consular families, sleep in the country every night,
in the open air, being apprehensive of more violent
shocks. The Algerines appear to be much attached
to the English, and would be glad to hear that they
had made peace with the Turks. They are also very
desirous of having a brush with the French.
Nov. 2.6.—Since writing the foregoing, -we have
been alarmed every night by slight shocks of earth-
quakes. Trade is exceedingly dull, which may be as-
cribed to various causes, namely, the war with Tunis,
a rebellion at Oran, and the unpopularity of the Dey;
who, having outlived
.the affections of his peck e, is
soon expected to be removed,
A frigate which sailed from hence not long ago,
we learn, has been captured by the Turks on board,
an.i carried to the Levant.
N. B. Mention is made of war with America.

NAPLES, OCTOBER io.

We have received the following additional particu-
lars respecting the reduction of Capri :
“ At the moment when the firing from the English
batteries was at the hottest, Captain Levrou, who
commanded 103 cuirassiers, approached a very steep
rock with his gun-boat, and throwing up a ladder,
exclaimed, Cuirassiers, we do not yet know one an-
other ; but if you only follow me, I think we shall
soon get acquainted.' He instantly jumped out,
.caled the rock with his cuirassiers, poured in a
heavy fire on the English battery that defended the
post on that side, and compelled the enemy, after an
obstinate resistance, to abandon it. This brave officer
was wounded in the hand, and lost one of his fingers,
and 20 of his men were killed or wounded. On car-
rying this battery, all the English were forced to re-
treat successively from one post to another. Among
the 900 prisoners landed here, are a Colonel and 1l
Officers. The reinforcement of 800 grenadiers, sent
to support the landing party, were under the com-
mand of Nicoli, a Tuscan, who had ardently soli-
cited the honour of assisting in this glorious enter-
prize. The action which took place on the 10th, be-
tween the English flotilla and ours, lasted until night
came on. The fighting on the island continued for
nine days. The garrison was considerably more nu-
merous than was at first supposed. It is impossible
to form any idea of the fury displayed by our troops
in the hottest of the battle. They scrambled up rocks
so steep, that it is extremely difficult to climb them
even where there are no obstacles to be overcome.
An idea of their height may be formed from the fact
that a reinforcement of 300 men took longer time to
get up the landing place, than the 1800 who climbed it
in the heat of action, with their arms and accoutre-,
ments on their backs. To plant the ladders, ascend
the height, seize the cannon, and make 700 prisoners,
was only the work of an instant. We have availed
ourselves of all the enemy's works, and the island is
now in a formidable state of defence. General La-
marque, who is the principal in command, writes that
15,000 of the English cannot expel him from it."

BRIGHTON JuLr 29.

The drives this morning were crowded with splen-
did equipages ; and equestrians, male and female,
were beyond all calculation. The Duke of MARL.
ECIROUGH, accompanied by Lord F. SPE'CER, pro-
ceeded for Church hill in his chariot, where he
alighted from the carriage, and again took gentle
exercise on horseback. ThP Duchess, and Lady A.
SPENCER, in her Grace's barouche, paid a visit to the
slope of the Downs to the North. Lady BERXELEY
was in her phaeton, and, in truth, all the world of
fashion at Brighton, at present, were to be seen
abroad. The Hon. BERKELEY CRAVEN, and num-
berless others of distinction, are in the last list of ar-
rivals. The PRINCE will certainly be here on or befule
Monday next. His Highness's House Steward; and
the whole of theTavilion establishment, are now here.
The bugles of the PRINCE'S Dragoons were sounded
this morning, at five o'clock. All is preparation
among the military for the review on the 12th. The
drums of the South Gloucester Militia this morning
were heard soon after the bugles of the tenth. Up-
wards of 10,000 men, it is understood, will be re-
viewed here on the 12th, when the interesting pro-
ceedings in the field will terminate with a sham fight.

MARGATE, JUL?' 30.

The gay scenes of amusements are again com-
menced in this place and its vicinity. Carriages cf
every description now roll through our streets, in
humble imitation of your great city. Donkey airing
is by far more prevalent than last summer. As the
desolation of a part of this place has been truly la-
mentable, equally astonishing has been the in-
crease and rapid improvement of the other parts of
it. Our worthy townsman, Mr. GARNER, is nume-
rously attended by his friends. BerrisoN's fills in
like manner. Dandelion was thronged on Wednes-
day last. KIDMAN'S Sunday Promenade has been
unusually attended.
The two boys (packets we should have said)
brought us yesterday about three hundred visitors.
We expect an abundant cargo by every vessel. A
Masquerade is announced at our Theatre for Wed-
nesday next, and if the weather should not be oo
hot, there will be no want of people, whatever may
I be their characters.

At Ludlow Races, I.ord STAMFORD'S St. Domingo
walked over the course for the sweepstakes ; and the
501. plate was won by Mr. GOULDOURN'S Romeo, beat-
ing three others. On Friday the Hunter's Stakes was
won by Mr. BENSON'S Fisherman, beating Mr. ADAMS'S
bl. h. ; and the 501. plate was won by Mr. BENSON'S
beating Mr. GO:.I.BOORN'S. Whitmore, which
was very well contested.
Salisbury Races ended oh Thursday last. There-
was very little sport. The ball, hoivever, was at-
tended by all the fashion of the county. The match
of single-stick, from want of previous proper arrange-
ment, by persons skilled in the game, did not at all
answer public expectation. The Wiltshire men uni-
formly play with the atin naked—the Somersetshire
men generally play with the arin padded ; hence
each keep a different guard, and either can conquer
in their own mode of play. It had been advertised
that the play should be on Wednesday, with the arm
naked—the Wiltshire men contended that they were
of course to play as usual, for two blood:, by which
they hoped not only to gain the prize of the day, but
to have time and opportunity so to disable their ad-
versaries, playing out cf their usual mode, as to have
an equal chance of victory on the followitz day. The
Somersetshire men insisted on playing the first day,
one blood, that they might the less expose their unpad-
ded arms. On this point the day was wrangled
away, with very little play, and without any contest
between the crack men of the two counties. The So-
merse:shire men thus reserved their arms, and, in
consequence, on Thursday, they gained every head
of the Wiltshire men, and played off the tyes fot the
prizes in a fi-iendly way, among themselves.

This fashionable place of resort for sea-bathing fills
very fast. Fish is here plentiful and cheap, and the
inhabitants seem emulous to provide for the necessi-
ties and comforts of their Summer visitors, on mod,,-

the place offer much to recommend it. Surrounded`
with hill, dale, and sylvan shade on one side, with a
fine hard sandy beach for bathing on the other, while
the proud promontory of Beachy Head, withn 20

C01.11(1' Ot COMMON PLEAS, NOV. 17.

HEARD V. NORRIS. • /1/
A rule to shat• cause had been obtained on a fol..
mer day, why the costs in this action should not be
set off against the verdict which the plaintiff had ob-
tained. 'fhe rule was moved for under the statute
lof the 4.3 d Geo. 111. which provides (as in this case)
that ifa plaintiff recover less than the sum for which
rhe holds a defendant to bail, ke shall be amerced in
the costs. Hkre the plaintiff arrested the defendant
for £lO fls. having originally delivered in a bill of
RI 15s. 6d. A verdict for the latter sum had been
found. The Court, having examined the affidavits in
support, and against the role, were of opinion it should
be made absolute.
STEEL V. BROWN AND PARRY..
This was an action of trover. The question in
the case was, Whether the bill of sale under which
the Plaintiff had taken possession of the effects of a
man named Cockburn, was good or not ? Cockburn
had given the Plaintiff a bill of sale for the security
of the lease of the Red Lion public house, in Gray's
Inn-)line. Cockburn afterivards borrowed 2001. of
the Defendant, *lto belongs to the Golden-lane
Brewery; and to seeure then, signed a warrant of
attorney. The Plaintiff, however, previous to their
entering judgment upon the warrant, had taken pos-
session.
Sir JAMES MANSFIELD was of opinion, that the
transaction, from the evidence, was fair as to the
Bill of Sale, and the Jury found a verdict for the
Plaintiff.

I.IMS V. ROSERT NEWMAN.

GARRCIW moved the judgment of the Court
upon this Defendant, for an assault upon the Plaintiff,
Mr. Dixon Nicholas Lamb, merchant, at Dartmouth.
He was accordingly adjudged to be committed for
three calendar months to the King's Bench Prison,
and to give security for his good behaviour for two
years, himself in £3O, and two sureties in £25 each.
No other business of importance came before the
Court.
Lord ELLENEOROVGII sat at Nisi Prius for about
AA lour and a half, but nothing of interest occurred.
