WORTHY OF PUBLIC NOTICE.
TIIE CELEBRATED VEGY: FABLE SOAP PASTE.
1"1-TE Nobility, Gentry, and Public are respectfully
informed, that J. DELCRQIX has prepared the above Va-
luable Soap Paste from a ilt.,c.pe of Mr. Prof kosky, his friend, an
eminent Chemist at Warsaw, who is the sole Inventor and Pro-
prietor of this precious Composition, which has universally been
approved of by persons of the first r..nk, inbabitus that bleak
and frozea country, for softening, nourishing, and whitening th;
skin, and allowed to be a certain preventive against the cold air
chopping the face and hands, and also a most pleasing and efficient
Soap for Shaving. Nothing can be offered to the admirer cf ex-
quisite delicacy and fairness equal to this incomparable Paste, whet.
a trial of two days will convince of its'supericir virtues, as well as
superiority over any discoveiy of the kind ever presented to the
public.
Retailed by the principal Perfumers in Town and Country, and
sold wholesale by The Proprietor, at his Martinique Liquor Wale.:
house, No. 56, Poland-street, where a large assortment of them
is to be found, at reduced pries.

THE Royal Family, and' Ladies and Gentlemen.
of distinction and fashion, use the ORIGINAL RUSSIA
OIL, for moistening the Hair when dressing, which is so great
a nourisher to the Hair, as to prevent it turning grey to all pe-
riods of life ; promotes the growth ; prevents its falling off; and
restores it on bald places, if the least roots remain. Several Gen-
tlemen that were bald have declared, after using the Russia Oil
regularly for three months, the bald places became nearly covered
with hair.
Caution.—As noxious Counterfeits are selling In petty shops,
and, to deceive, have imitated the Russian Eagle on the shc.w-
bills and covers, purchasers will therefore be particular in observ-
ing, that each f:ottle of the Original Russian Oil has a label on the
outsidew rapper, signed in Russian gold ink " Mochrikufsky and
Prince,"—any without that signature are counterfeits.
Ladies and Gentlemen going to waterinz-places ought not to
neglect, after bathing, to use the Russian Oil, as it prevents Me ge-
neral case of the water occasioning the Hair to fall off, and become
shaded. Also, Gentlemen should not omit applying it to the whip.
kers to prevent* them turning grey, which is too generally cape.
rienced on account of the constant wetting they receive from sha-
ving—chit case is clearly proved, as the whiskers mostly change
colour sooner than the ha r on the heat'.

SPAIN.

Head-Quarters, Madrid, May 2, 1806.
BRAVE SPANIARDS—The 2d of May will be a day
mourning as well for me as for yotrselves.
Our common enemies having first provoked me in
a manner to wear out my patience, have concluded by
e:iciting a part of the people of Madrid and of the ad-
;accnt villages to such excesses, that in the end it has
,been necessary to employ the irresistible force con.-
:-Ided to my command.
I was previously informed of the efforts of the
r ten ti on ed , but I still wished to persuade myself that
-i,thing would disturb the public tranquillity. I was
epared for the worst, but still trusting that my pre-
cautions would be superfluous.
This morning, the storm I had long apprehended
lies burst. A number of circumstances and iacendi-
al, libels had prepared me for it, by informing me
e the means that had been employed to mislead the
populace. The signal for the blow was the departure
ri the Queen of Etruria, and the Infant Don Fran-
cisco, who were called to Bayonne by the King their
Either. One of my aid-du-camps, who was at the
time in the Palace, was on the point of perishing by
1:c hands of the seditious, at the same time all the
French who were found alone in the different quarters
f Madrid were assassinated. I was at last compelled
to give orders to punish such enormous offences.
With what horrible joy will the enemies of France
and Spain contemplate a day in which generous
Frenchmen were compelled to wound deluded Spa-
niards. The common enemies of both countries will
continue to use their efforts to obtain other triumphs,
not less horrible, in other parts of this beautiful
kingdom. Their futile- hopes shall be frustrated
through m frankness, and your sound judgment.—
Brave Spaniards, I speak to you with sincerity, upon
an event not less painful to your bosoms than to mine
—and at the same time I will explain to you your
situation.
Charles the IVth and his son are now met together
-it Bayonne, w;th the Emperor Napoleon, to settle
the fate.of Spain. The Emperor does Hot think pro-
per to wait the issue of such a momentous decision, to
make known to you the feelings that animate him in
behalf of a magnanimous nation, which he is desirous
of preserving from a revolutionary crisis, and to call
on her to establish such political institutions as arc best
ad pted to her character.
He therefore assures you, and charges me to re-
peat to you, that he wishes to maintain and secure
the integrity of the Spanish Monarchy, which shall
not be dismembered of the slightest part of its terri-
tory—it shall not even lose a village, nor suffer any
of the contributions, the levy of which are authorised
by the laws of war in conquered countries, but which
the ill-intentioned only will suppose applicable to an
Ally.
Will you not unite, brave Spaniards, with me, to
prevent the evil-minded from disturbing such a happy
prospect. "I will not suppose you' capable of such
blindness, as to suffer yourselves to be led astray by
base agitators, who wish to conduct you to your ruin.
When the public repose is the object of our care, is
not the interest of the army -which I command also
that of those who have dignities and property to pre-
serve ? Do not the disturbances of the multitude,
which insult the majesty of the laws, threaten both.
Noblemen, Proprietors, Merchants, Manufacturers,
use your greatest influence to prevent every species of
sedition, this exercise of Magistracy is the right and
duty of your station.
Ministers of Religion—your duty calls upon you to
stem the delusion of the people, because you know the
secrets of their consciences, which your voices direct
with so much authority.
Depositaries of the Civil and Military Power—the
most direct responsibility lies on you, if you neglect
using your power, with vigour, to crush sedition in
its cradle, or to check it in its first movements. If
French blood should be spilt again, you in particu.
lar shall be accountable to the Emperor Napoleon,
whose wrath or clemency no one ever provoked in
vain. Your weakness would be the more inexcusa-
ble, after I have recalled to your memory, with the,
greatest diligence and earnestness, the most important
duty which you have to fulfil.
But I promise myself a better futurity, trusting
that tie Ministers of Religion, the Magistrates, Spa-
niards of the highest rank, in one word, that all classes
will endeavour to avoid the disturbances that might
be prejudicial to the improvement of Spain: To all
General OfEc,:rs and Military Men employed in the
different provinces of the Monarchy, the conduct
which has been observed by the troops of the Royal
Household, 'and of the garrison of Madrid, and the
Spanish military quartered in the Court, is a model
worthy of simitation on this lamentable occasion.—
Should my hopesbe frustrated, my vengeance will in
deed be ti emenduus ; but if realized, I shall be happy
in announcing to the Emperor, that his judgment res-
pecting the natives of Spain (to whom lie extends his
tist:.crn and affection) has not been erroneous.
(Signed) JOACHIM.

pats, May 7, 180$.
I make known to the inhabitants of this city of Ca
d.z, that 'Signior Don Gonzalo OTarrel, Secretary
of State and War, communicates to me as follows,
wader. date May 3 :
An event provoked by a Few persons disobedient to
the laws, caused yesterday an uproar in titis Court,
the result of which might have been 'mournful for all
the honoured and distinguiAied inhati, tants of this
city, if the prudence and patriotism of the Councils,
Al Ales? and Judge!, directed by the Sppreme Junta
of Government, had not succeeded in quelling it,
and re establishing tranquillity before evening. Let
• this melancholy example be the last of the kind for
thc p s plc to experiencer—let those whose duty it is to
ch cv.T tranquillity and order (sensible of the ne-
;es:4y) be active in perpetually directing their endea-
vot7rs to premete this important'Ob agoeably to
the wishes of the Junta. T His Highness Don Ante!.
nio,therefore: by advice 'of the same, 'orders the
Royal ,tadience to be assembled on the •receipt of

this dispatch, to consult- immediately and adopt mea-
sures to maintain inviolate all passible harmony with
the French troops, and to bring back the lower '
classes from their errors or ill-directed zeal, which
can only bring misfortune upon them, and involve the
most innocent part of the inhabitants in utter ruin.
The Junta of the Government also requires your
Excellency to acquaint the Right Rev. Bishops and
Prelates of Communities, Parish Priests, the Nobility,
and Justices of Districts, of the efire;tions you have
given respecting this essential business, and to invite
them to contribute all in their power towards the at-
tainment of its object by the means of their autho-
rity, by the councils and influence appertaining to
their ministry.
Your Excellency must recommend in all places
through which French troops must pass, to continue,
as hitherto, to supply them generously with every
thing they may stand in need of, and the Justices to
take under their especial protection any individual of
the said nation who may be insulted or ill treated, by
administering to him immediate and strict justice.
And, finally, that your Excellency may follow in
every respect the system adopted by the Junta of Go-
vernment, you are to impress all the inhabitants of
your district with the conviction that our Sovereign
neither knows nor forms any other wishes but for the
happiness of the nation, the integrity of its territory,
the privileges of its province, the preservation of all
classes, and inviolable respect of property.
All v.hich.l communicate to your noble and loyal
city, that all may rest assured of the protection of our
worthy Sovereign, and of the Junta of Government,
to secure the happiness of the nation, and the tran-
quillity and repose of his beloved subjects, and reject
all reports that malice and ignorance may invent to
te contrary. (Signed) 19 ANDEL DE LArEsA.

THE EVENING STAR._

LONDON.

TUESDAY, JUNE 7.
w HIT-Ty EsDAy.—Holiday at the Public Offices.

By an American vessel which left Cadiz on the
9th ult. with only three-fourths of her cargo on

board, being apprehensive of an embargo, accounts

have been received, in substance as follow

General SPENCER, with about 30 transports, joined
Admiral PURVIS on the 13th of last month ; but no
attempt had been made either to laud, or to obtain
possession of the united fleets of France and Spain
during that or the three ensuing days. It is even
stated, that as soon as it was known at Cadiz that
transports, with British troops on board, had joined
the blockading squadron, the ships which were lying
in the outer harbour, with top-gallant yards across,

immediately slipped their cables, and retired with the
greatest expedition to the inner harbour. Soon after,
a flag of truce was received from the British Squa-
dron, offering the inhabitants the utmost aid in support
of their Religion and country, against the encroach-
ments
of the French ; and also proposing to take the
French and Spanish Fleets, with such of the inhabi-
tants as chose to emigrate, to South America. The
proferred aid, it is said, was rejected. But still this
is to be considered only as vague rumour, as that

which really may have passed, could hardly be
known in the streets and coffee-houses.
General SPENCER'S force amounts to three thousand
men.

A French ex-Nobly of conseqiience had accompa-
nied General SPENCER to Cadiz, but he has returned
to Gibraltar.

LE Roy, the French Consul, intimated before the
departure of our informant, that the Irish MercLaits
in Cadiz should not be disturbed—but that any per-

son found to transact any business with the English,
should be punished with the utmost rigour of fine and
imprismment. From the strictness of the embargo,
and the nature of the other measures which ware tak-
ing, when our informant contrived to escape, lie
thought it hopeless that this country can hold any far-
ther commercial intercourse with Spain.
On the 27th ult. our informant spoke a gun brig
with a convoy of fourteen sail, for Madeira and the
West Indies, and in lat. 40. 30. and long. 11. W. he
saw a large convoy for the Brazils.
Madrid Gazettes to the 14th ult. have been received
by the above vessel. Every thing was then quiet in
that city : and the hate insurrection against the French
is stated to have been wholly confined to the populace,l
the few Spanish soldiers that remained in the vicinity
of the capital not taking any part in it. The only
person of consequence who bad declared himself
openly against the late proceedings, was General I
O'FARREI., a distinguished officer under the late mo-
narchy. He is said to have made a formal and vigo-
rous protest against the abdication of the late KING
and the Pigiscs of Atruams ; but his influence is not
thought so great as his talents and principles deserve.
Almost the wbple of the provinces, this account
gates, have acknowledged Minter as Lieutenant-
General, and look up to him as the future Sovereign
of the kingdom.
A letter kern Poole, dated the sth inst. says, that
the Driver, Rnsotzs, which left England in February
last? had just arrived at that port from St. Andero in
eight days. The intelligence which she brings from
that p4vt of Spain is something more favourable than
the foregping, but of equally doubtful validity. The
Captain Flys, and is even reported to have made oath
to the truth of so much of his statement as fell under
his own cognizance; that on last Friday week all the
French in St. Andes!) had been thrown into prison,
in conseq4ence of an order from their Government,
that the Spaniards should give up their arms. A re-
port was likewise current in St. Andero, at the time
'the above vessel quitted that port, that several thou-
.

sand French had been killed in an insurrection at Bar-
celona, wherein the Spaniards lost seven thousand.
Other accounts state, that at Seville, which is at
no great distance from Cadiz', the people had as-
sembled before the Governor'shouse, demanding arms
lin order to avenge themselves of their invaders ; but
that he having declined complying with their request,
they bad dispersed on the appearance of a French
force. The town of Cadiz is stated to have been in
the greatest confusion during the Erst two days after
the transports, under General SPENCER,' bad ap-
peared in sight. It is even said, that if he had
landed immediately, and availed himself of the con-
sternation which then prevailed, he might, with the
assistance which he would have received from
the inhabitants, have obtained possession of the place.
We hold this latter communication to be of the same
doubtful nature as the former. Admiral Pultvls's
fleet, and that of the transports, continued in sight on
the 19th, without having effected or attempted any
thing.
We have nothing to add to the preceding state-
ments, except that they are to be believed with cau-
tion. We never till now heard that the French troops
had entered Barcelona.

Hamburgh and Altona Papers to the 14th ult. have
been received. The following are their principal
contents :

Letters from Cassel, of the Sth ult. state, that the
union of Hanover with the kingdom of Westphalia
is finally determined on, and will speedily be carried
into effect. The new militia raising in the Austrian
States is to be 200,000 strong.
BONAPARTE is expected to visit Toulon before he
returns to Paris. A letter from Bourdeaux says—
We have flattered ourselves that here, at well as at
Oporto and Lisbon, we should have been permitted to
ship cargoes under neutral flags ; but an order has
arrived from Paris, directing that only ships under
I the French flag shall be allowed to clear out, which
strips the Pappenburgh and other neutral flags of all
their former value." Articles written under the head
of Paris, Naples, Leghorn, &c. boast of the success-
ful cruize of the Toulon fleet, under GANTHEAUME.
It is asserted that a landing in Sicily formed no par.
of the plan of the Expedition, which was in every re
spect fully executed.
King Loris is again going to leave his Dutch sub
jects. He is preparing to visit Paris. Admiral DL
WINTER, SCHIMMELPENNINK, and some others, arc,
it is said, to be created Princes of Holland.

It appears that General SEBASTIAN' is making a
tour through the Turkish provinces. The object of
this journey is not mentioned, but we are persuaded
it is not undertaken for amusement merely, and that
its nature will probably soon be explained by some
political event. On the 24th of April he was expected
at Old Orsowa.

The private letters received by the Gottenburgh
Mail were not delivered out in time for our publica-

Lion yesterday. They confirm 'what has already been
stated that the Swedes have obtainesi some advantages
over the Russians. On the evening of the 23d ult. a
Courier arrived from Finland, and a Bulletin was to

be published the next day, with the details of the late
successes in that quarter. The Swedes are said to

have performed wonders in the vicinity of Cuapio.
The peasantry of Idensalmi rose en maw. At one
place, they fell upon the Russians with such weapons
as they had been able to provide themselves with, and
after a smart action, seized 200 waggon-loads of pro-
visions, and made a whole detachment prisoners. At
two other places they took 80, and 20 waggons, be-
sides a great number of prisoners on both occasions.
There are other accounts which estimate the waggons
of provisions at a much greater number.
The distress of the Russians for want of provisions
on their marchup the northern parts of Fi viand, is re-

presented to exceed what is generally suffered in a be.
sieged town. We have even heard, what we should
not venture to repeat, but on respectable authority,.
that after eating all the cat: and dog: they could lay
their hands upon, they were driven to the necessity
of feeding upon roasted hides. On the snow being
melted away in the, woods, the bodies of great num-
bers of Russians were found dead. They had fallen
a wretched prey to hunger and the inclemency of the

season and climate.
It is further stated, that Lieutenant KAPERLMAN,
after teeing Aland and the adjacent islands freed from
the enemy, set sail for Abo, and succeeded in cutting
out a great number of gun boats destined for the
transportation of the Russians across the Gulf. It
was Admiral CEDERSTROM who succeeded, with
the assistance of the peasants, in capturing the
Russians who had landed on the island of Goth-
land. It was not known at Calmar whether the
Russians were to be sent to Sweden, or whether,
after taking away their arms, they were to be sent
home on their parole : the latter was supposed the
most I:kely, as so great a number of prisoners was an
heavy incumbrance, in the present dearth of provi-
sions, to the Swedes. It was understood, that the
Officers taken in Got hand were, before they were
allowed to depart, to pay the value of what they had
taken in the island, in order to indemnify the sufferers
for the losses they had sustained by their predatory
incursions.
