ANCTRII, NOV. vit. •
They write from Longeron, that towards the
end of Otiober la& they had Peen palling in ti e
COMMUOCS bordering 'Ton the Maine and Loire,
a great number of ftrange birds, which in their flit ht
lent forth thrill and piercing cries. .
The 28th of the fame month, in the morning, an
individual of Longeron perceived one of them at no
great ditlance from him in one of his fields. He ran
and procured a gur., fired at the bird, and broke one
of its wings. He thought he could now eafily get
poffeffion of his prey, but the fwiltnefs with which
the bird ran would have enabled it to efcape, if at a
great diaance, fuppofing its enemy to be far off, it
had not betaken itfelf to a thick both. The man,
who had not loft fight of it, came up to its retreat,
and endeavoured to lay hold of it; but the bird, rai
fing itfelf on its feet, lifted its head to the height of
that of its enemy, fell upon him, and fituck him fu.
rioufly with the bill and wing. An extraordinary
conteft then took place between them, and after a
long combat the bird expired under the blows of his
purfuer. The news loon fpread—people ran from
all parts to fee this extraordinary bird, and the fol.
lowing is the defcription given of it.
" it weighed about 171bs. it had on the bead a
crown of red feathers, the bill and the neck very
long, the feet black and is inches long, with 3 fpurs
on each fide, the tail Ilion, the. feathers of various
colours, the greater part however being of a greyith
and afhy colour, the tip of the wings black, the flefh
red, and a little hard. Its length from the extre-
mity of the bill to that of the feet was four feet ten
'inches.
4, It differed from the Bußard in the bill, and had
not, like that bird, fcales on the legs, nor the holes
of the ears Co open. It differed from the Crane in
the file, the colour of the feet, and the fine down
that covered the large feathers. The down appeared
to approach to that of the Oflrich, though the bird
was not of that fpecies."

Rear Admiral Sir Joon BORLACE WARREN, the
new Commander on the Halifax Ration, has failed
from Plymouth in the Swirrsoas, of 74 guns.

A letter received by the Cartel which took over the
Governor of Monte Video to Spain, not only men-
tions the releafe of (he PRINCI OF ASTURIAS, but
gives a copy of a letter from Naros.son to the Paiscaf.
and which was in circulation in Spain when the
cartel came away.

?a this letter the French Emperor declares the
Panics of ASTURIAS to be, in the abfence of him-
fell, and of the KIK° OT SPAIN. Generalifftmo of
the United French and Spanifh Army, deftinecl to
aft againft Portugal, and tells him to go and conquer
a country which he will one day govern.

This letter was accompanied by a prefent of a
fwpra—that of Frusta: I. taken by theSpasiards at
the battle of Pavia, and lately returned by the King
of Spain to the French Emperor, and which. Na.
POLZON tells his Royal Highnefs, cannot pollibly be
io better hands than thofe of the Heir Apparent of
the Simi& Monarchy.
The cenfeffion of the PRINCI of ASTURIAS, and
his petition for forgivenefs, which we gave yefterday
from the French Papers, had been officially circu-
lated by the Spaniffi Government, in the fame man-
ner as the Proclamation that denounced the confpi-
.
racy.
According to informatiln received yenerday 'trims
Plymouth, through a velhl which bad juft arrived
there from St. Andero, the prohibitory Decrees of
BONAPARTI agaittfl our commerce are in future to
be enforced in the Spanifk ports, with the utmott
rigour. An order hrd been received at St. Andero
jull before this veffel failed, enjoining that no wool

• .
- •
fitrutid be exported to any part of the Bridal Empire.
Ai wool is the principal al ticle of Spanifit produce !
im;4orted into the United Kingdom, one may infer .
from this order the total prohibition of any com•
coerce with Spain, as far as the orders of the Go.
iertiment can be effeitive.
But all accounts agree that the lalt harveft, both in
Spain and Portugal, was very deficient,and that they
have not grain of any fort for more than fix months'
confumption. If this be really the cafe,the Decree
of Interditt againft all Commerce, if carried to its
extent, mull be fatal to the pecple. It is not impo&
fible but that the knowledge of this fait may have
led BONAPARTE tp the meafare of affeeted generofity
to the Prince of ASTURIAS, that he might conciliate
the people until Reps could be token to fupply their
wants, and a fufficient French force be in the centre
of the country, to quell infurreilion. The Duke of
SAN CARLOS is mentioned as one of the confpiratars.
Nothing is Paid in the letter of the efcape of tbs
Duke of laratrraoo, or of the apprehended difgrace
of the PRINCII or THE PEAtE.

An American veffel has been brought into Cowes
in dill refs, by an Englifls cruizer. She left Cher
bourgh on Friday night ha. The Captain is arrived
in town, and has communicated the following im-
portant particulars :—About three' weeks fince, he
lays, an embargo was laid on all tetras in the port
of Cherbourgh ; but on the 2d inftant, the order was
revoked, and notice given that all veffels might ob-
tain their clearances at the Cullom Houle, and pro.
-steed on their voyages. Another order, howevei, for
the furtheritetention of all American (hips reached
Cherburgh frorit Paris on the 4th ; nor could the
vela which arrived at Cowes on Monday, have
efcaped, had not the Captain !saltily proceeded on
board the moment he heard of the new order, and
without books, papers, clothes, 4cc. which were. on
Chore, effected his efcape in the courfe of the night.—
A few days previous to the 2d, a French frigate, of
36 guns, provifiuned for a voyage of (even months,
proceeded from Cherburgh to Bra. There was in
the former port a French corvette, carrying 16 guns,
lately returned from a entire. She had been to tea
for Come weeks, and during her ctuife fell in with
the homeward bound Ealt India fleet. It was this
corvette that boarded the Lord Eldon Indiaman in
Portland Roads, and was fo gallantly repulfed ; the
was commanded by the nephew of General Moasau
who loft his life at the wheel of the Lord Elden,
by a fabre blow from Captain Young, which fevered
his head from his body.
The American (hip Villory bad been feized at
CherbOusg, on account of the Captain having made
a falfd declaration, and not es has been reported for
having rum on board. It was neceffary before his in-
ward clearance could be effeeted at the Cuitomhoufe
there, that he thould prove he had no goods of
Britifh manufaaure on board ; that he had not
touched at a Britifh port, and that he had not
been detained by a Brill& cruizer. The Captain
acknowledged his detention for five hours by an
Englifls cruizer, and this was deemed fothcient toted
his condemnation. Such are the (latements of the
American Captain, but we cannzt of mirk vouch
'the accuracy of the whole.
