MONDAY, FEBRUARY 8, 1813.

Since Saturday, some Frinch;Dutch, and German
Papers, have been received. The Paris Papers

filled with speculations deduced from historical docu-
ments on the effects of a Regency in France. Hence
it has been inferred, that the Concordat issued by -
Pope at Fontainbleau contained an approval of
divorce from Jomeams, of the subsequent marriage
with MARIA Lours*, and a solemn declaration of
legitimacy of the King of Rome. Upon these

monstrations of the Papal acquiescence to the new
dynasty, it is presumed that one of the first acts
the Legislative Body, at its meeting, would be

order for the coronation of the young King of Road
and the appointment of a Regency during his non.
age. This would leave BONAPARTE at perfect liberty
to continue his ferocious career among the nations
Europe, aqd he might by these means secure the sill
jection of the Frenth people to his tyranny, even
amid any future reverses of fortune. The same let
tern which hazard the above conjectures assert, rh
preparations to take the field in spring are makir
by BONArARTR, in downright earnest : his chief

tention was directed to the equipment of cavalry.
The Dutch and German Papers inform us, that
the icing of WAPija had two affairs with the Russians

PLJ
hare no doubt that. his ragged &gating were elan
and again scattered and dispersed.
home letters have been received by the last Got-
tenburgh Mails, which afford strong grounds to hope
that Denmark will be at length detached from her
pernicious connection with France. The Swedish
negociator, whose arrival at Copenhagen we lately
noticed, has, it seems, been, authorized to offer terms
to the Danes, which nothing short of absolute insa-
nity on the part of their rulers can reject. The Bri•
tish Government offers not only restitution of the
Danish possessions in the East and West Indies, but
also an indemnification for the Danish feet taken at
Ccpenbagen. On the other band, Russia, Sweden,
and Great Britain, threaten a joint invasion of the
nhole of the Danish territories, in the event of their
pacific overtures being rejected.

A Lisbon Mail arrived last night, bringing Portu-
guese Papers to the 27th ultimo. The gallant Com-
mander-in-Chief had returned to head-quarters ; all
the rumours, therefore, of his coming to .England
fall to the ground. It is again reported, and with
touch appearance of probability, that SOULT has been
erdered to make his appearance in France, at the
bead of 40,000 (some accounts say 60,000) men.
Jo this event, the Marquis of WELLINGTON will walk
over the course at the commencement of the cam-
paign, for which, we are happy to learn, most vigo-
rous preparations are making.
A new Guerilla leader, by name Is/Esor, and a
monk by profession, has made his appearance is the
Deighbourhood of Valencia, greatly to the annoyance
of SUCHET. NEEOT has 2,500 infantry, and 500
mounted lancers, under his orders, and they have
already performed prodigies, if not of valour, at least
of dexterity. Buckler's convoys are, as usual, the
objects of attack. Extracts from tle Papers brought
by the above Mail, will be found in another part of
this day's paper.

We this morning received Corunna Papers to the
14th ultimo. They furnish additional reports of the
French being about to retire from the Peninsula.—
The following are extracts :

" SANTIAGO, JANUARY 8.
" According to intelligence the French are falling
ick upon Valladolid, preserving the line of the

Douro. We do not positively know whether they
have, as has lately been asserted, abandoned Sala-
tianca. They persist in saying they are going to
join Soult ; and considering the situation of the hos-
tile armies in La Mancha and Estremadura, this ap-
pears more probable than that .they should take the
I.s ad to France,' as some people have affirmed. On
he other hand, it is known that Soult has promised
support Suchet, against whom the armies of the
ake Del Parque and General £lio are marching :
latter is in the vicinity of Elche, and the former
his head-quarters in Infantes, where Senior Cruz
ongon has arrived.

44 It is not true that the French lately entered
!ilboa and Santander :—Longa, on the 18th, was in
he former place. •
" The Cottnna Diary, of the 9th January, con-
[l
,;r:s an official dispatch from Longa to General
tendizabal, dated Santa Gidae, the 9th December,
ating, that he had attacked an enemy's column,
posed of 1500 infantry and 150 horse, broke and
mued it to under-the very walls of Miranda, kill-
g 500 of the enemy, and making 200 prisoners,
'di the loss on his side of 80 killed and 160
ded."

" ASTORGA, JANUARY 2.
" The French who entered this place did not
mcunt to more than 1000, nor remained here more

an five days, at the end of which time they returned
'the place from whence they came, and appear re.
ring to Benevente, or beyond it."

" CORUNNA, JANUARY 5.
W To-day anchored in this port some English
airports, which were off Santana ; they have
!ought with them a beautiful brigantine, of 18 guns,
ier, from the French, who in her had done consi-
sable damage.

" GRANADA, JAN. 9.
" They write from Calalayud that one of Villa
impa's detachments has killed 100 men, and made
prisoners ; among them some Juramentadoes."

" BAYLEN, JAN: 8.
"Some carriers, who have just arrived from Ma-
r'd, say, that one the 2d, 6000 French arrived at
I;actha from Toledo ; and add, that they were pro-

Ming to Valencia. They have exacted in Upper
d Lower Mancha, 60,000 bushels of corn, 40,000
'barley, much money in metal, and a great quan-
h (1 cattle—the whole to be conducted to Toledo."
" CADIZ, JAN. 15;
11.ey write from Madrid fiat they soon expect
free from the Vandals and the automaton Mo-
, who in effect talks of travelling, and returning
four months.
JANUARY 17.—The Army of Reserve has re-
d orders to approach those of Operations. We
assured the Vandals have again concentrated
selves in Madrid, Toledo, and the intermediate
es, after destroying the bridges on the Tagus—
at &-anjuez excepted ; and that they have left
rtY in Ocanao.
" Longa has had another action in the valley of
40, in which he made 500 prisoners."
