MILAN, OCTOBER 18.

Count Bellegarde was yesterday at the Theatre de
la Scala, which was crowded with spectators. In the
midst of the performance, some voices were heard is
the pit shouting Five Napoleon ! These clamours at
first disturbed the performance a little, but they were
soon stifled, and his Excellency did net seem to care
much for them. These shouts were repeated, however,
with more violence towards the end of the third act,
when Count Bellegarde, who was noticed giving
orders to one of his Aides-du-camp, rose up in his
box, and addressed the Pit as follows :
" Gentlemen,—l have to warn you that the doors
of the house are shut, and if you do not instantly de-
liver up to me the authors of these seditious cries, I
shall cause the boxes to be emptied, and enter at the
head of my soldiers, who will be very well able to
find them."

Nine of the most guilty were then delivered up and
shot the same evening by torch light.
This m:asure has not a little astonished those who
affect to treat with indifference a cry which can now
be regarded as nothing but a signal of revolt, and.
which calls to the recollection of Europe the wretch
who has been too long its scourge.

MADRID. OCTOBER 17.
The Addresses continue. The Grandees of Spain
solicit the honour of representing the Cities of which
they are Liege Lords, or the territories in which they
have property.
The Council of the Mesta is re-established in all
its ancient form and vigour. The Merino flocks may
now traverse the whole of Spain, as formerly, in
spite of the eloquent memoir of Jovellanos, and the
reasonings of all our modern economists. When we
shall succeed in once more having wool in abund-
ance, there will remain only one wish ungratified,
namely, that of attracting merchants to purchase it :
for if we admit the English only, it is probable that
we shall receive the law instead of giving it.

It is alleged by some Politicians—that this country
" dare not enter into a Commercial Treaty with
France; because she is so eminently advanced in all
the useful and elegant arts, that it would be ruin to
our agriculture, manufactures, fine arts, and revenue,
to establish any practicable Tariff with her fur the
exchange of commodities."—This idea is founded on
mistaken views of the nature of commerce, and of the
real interests of our manufacturers and artists. It is
to ur, that the French have made great progress in
several branches of manufacture within the last t wenty
years; and,grange it would be, should such a people
-nemaia.statigatsagy..- Butlaas.aat-Baitaia also greatly-

improved her manufactures in the- same period ?
Let the two countries be put in fair competition, by
a free interchange of commodities, and both will be
benefited in a much greater degree than by any sys-
tem of restraints by which either may expect to gain
an enviable advantage.
France has made great progress in the cotton ma.
nufactures—an English branch, as Britain has in silks
—originally a Trench branch of manufacture. If
both these were suffered to be freely imported into
France and Britain, what would be the result ?
France would probably, in time; gain a greater supe-
rimity in the Silk Trade, and Britain in the Cottons,
How would thq ftalance stand ?--Plaiely in favour.
of Grettliritain. For this country would eventually
have the supplying cif a population Of thirty millions
with cotton goods ; while France would supply our
population of twelve million; 'with silks. But, infaer,
this advantage would be compensated to France by
thq ,Aigereat value of the ceopmcglities ; for the dispa-
rity in the numbers wbo wed silk; is not in propor-
tion to the fopulation..Ahe rest* lis to labour

would be that the English Silk-weavers would gra-1
dually become workers in Cotton, and the French
Cotton-weavers workers in Silk.
Had no system of exclusion ever existed, England
would at this moment have had all the Cotton Trade
—France the Silk Trade—not only of these Nations,
but of all Germany and the North of Europe, Ame-
rica, and the West Indies.

Had no such system existed, there would not now
have been so many cotton spinning manufactories in
France. And, when NAPOLEON prohibited the ad-
mission of our cotton fabrics, bad we prohibited the
exportation of cotton yarn, there would not now have
been, comparatively, any cotton weavers on the Con-
tinent.—We created these weavers by permitting the
Continent to have our yarns (even without an Export
duty) ; and these weavers created the French Spinning
Manufactories.

The Spinning establishments produce yarns of the
lower and middling numbers; but they are still un-
able to produce the finer yarns—and the Continental
weavers are still supplied by our spinners. This is
highly impolitic. If they will not receive our cotton
fabrics, they should not be permitted to have our
fine yarns.—But the true interests of all would be
best consulted by a mutual, unrestrained traffic both
in yarn and fabrics—in cottons, silks, and every kind
of manufacture.

The private letters' from Halifax are to the 11th
ult. They state that Sir ALExAmmtt Cocultamer, who
had been at that port subsequently to the affair at
Baltimore, had sailed again on a new expedition, the
object of which was very properly kept secret. It is
hence to be inferred, that although by accounts cf
September 23, from Baltimore, the inhabitants had
not wholly recovered from their apprehensions of a
second visit ; those apprehensions were groundless, at
least for the present season. On the 20th of Sep-
tember, General IzAtto's forces were embarked and
ready to sail from Sackett's Harbour, probably on an
expedition against Kingston. We trust it will expe-
rience the fate of all their previous offensive measures.

Letters from Chant of the 28th and 29th ul!. con-
cur in stating, that all the American Commissioners,
except Mr. GALLATIN, had left that city to return
to the United States : and it was understood that
Mr. GALLATIN was also to.set off on the 2d instant,
but that he would probably proceed to Vienna.—
He may save himself that trouble. The affairs of
Europe—not of America, will be discussed at Vienna.

The following are some further Extracts from our
American Papers :

BOSTON, SEPTEMBER 21.

RUPTURE OF NEGOCIATION.—Letters are stated to
have been received at the seat of Government from
Captain Jones, of the Neptune flag-ship, stating his
expectation that the American Envoys would spec.
dily embark for the United States. It is impossible
to state the grounds of that expectation. But advices
from Halifax, to Friday last, state that a vessel had
arrived there from England, which she left the 3d of
August, and the current report by her was, that the
Negotiation would be broken off, and our Envoys
be obliged to return.

WAR ON TI IC SOUTHERN COAST OF MASSACHUSETTS.
—Letters and Gentlemen from Cape Cod, state, that
on Wednesday last two officers from the Spencer and
Leander, British men of war, then lying in Truro, an-
nounced to the inhabitants the intention of C3MMO-
dare Ragget, who commands the squadron, to de-
stroy the Salt-works erected there, unless ransomed
by the payment of two thousand dollars, and requiring
an answer in 15 minutes. The weather would not
permit any answer being returned ; and the officers
were prevailed upon to remain there that night. On
Thursday morning a Committee went on board the
Spencer, and obtained the reduction of the ransom
to twelve hundrei dollars, and promised to make
good some baggage belonging to the Leander,
which had been cast away on the Cape, in the dis-
patch boat, and which has since been libelled in Court.
—Captain Ragget informed the Committee that he
had orders to destroy all the towns which were assail-
able, in retaliation of the depredations committed by
the American forces in Canada ; that it was an un-
pleasant business to him, and therefore on his respon-
lie would accept a stipulated ransom, and spare
the towns ; and that the dismantled vessels would be
spared, but the vessels in employ would be taken.—
Similar requisitions have been made of Brewster of
4000 dollars ; of Wellfleet, WOO; Orleans, dtc. As
the towns were defenceless, it was expected they
would be compelled to capitulate. Permission was
refused for vessels to carry salt to market to raise the
ransom-money. It is added, that the Commodore
had expressed his determination to destroy Barnstable,
for an indignity to one of his officers !
NEW-YORK, SEPTEMBER 19.
By the steam-boat we learn that General Prevost's
army effected its retreat without the loss which Gene- '
ral Macomb anticipated.

contemplated.
Lieutenant Bloomfield, of the Ordnance Depart-
ment, has been killed in a duel near Albany.
Letters from Canandaigua say, that 2000 militia
had crossed into Canada, and expeditions at both ends
of Lake Clotarifi *ere contemplated.
