POLICE,

MANstox-Hoosx.—Yesterday John Hall underwent
his final examination, charged on suspicion of being
concerned with others in robbing the warehouse o:
Mr. Smith, of Gutter-lane, of ribbons and silk to
the amount of 8900, part of the property was found
in his possession, some of which he pretended to hay:
taken from a stranger, from Coventry, and part, h
said, was sent him by a Mrs. Jackson, who keeps a
stall in Fleet-market, in whose house a bundle of silk
and ribbons was found, which she pretended to know
nothing about ; the ribbon, which she confessed
sending to the prisoner, she sail she had from one
Caroline Birkitt, who was committed for trial, from
Worship-street Office, yesterday, as an a,:complice
in this robbery. Hall was fully committed for trial,
and Mrs.Jacksonadmitted as an evidence against him.

George Arabine, a soldier of the 10th regiment, was
ag* brought up, charged with extorting money from
several people, by pretending to cure disorders in
children by a charm ; the person from Bishopsgate-
street, who formerly made the charge against him,
repeated his evidence, and several others complained
of the prisoner's having extorted money from them
on similar pretences. The prisoner pretended to have
been intoxicated, and did not know what he did, and
was willing to give the persons orders on his regiment
for their demands, and was very sorry for what he
had done • he produced a furlough from his regi-
ment, at Ashford Barrack. The Magistrate finding,
he had been an old soldier, ordered the clerk to write
a few lines upon the back of his furlough, recom.
i mending military punishment for such imposition.
John Lees was fully committed, charged with steal,
ing a great coat from t house in Cannon-street, where
he went to solicit charity.
UNION-11ALL.— - Thontas, a carpenter, was •
charged by Mr. Paynter, with having stolen a quan-
tity of wood, the property of Mr. Oliver. Mr.
Paynter has lately been employed in repairing a
house belonging to Mr. Oliver, at Norwood, and the
prisOner had been placed there as a superintendant.
It appears to be the custom, where no. beer is allow-
ed, to permit the workmen to sell the chips in lieu of
it. In the present case, howsver, Mr. Oliver had
, allowed money for beer, and had particularly direct.
led that no chips should .be taken from the premises.
Notwithstanding this regulation was known to the
prisoner, he had permitted three cart-loads to be
taken away at different times ; part of which' was
valuable and useful stuff. The prisoner, in his de•
fence, said lie considered the chips as hi., perquisites,
but he was fully committed.

direction.

An article from Antwerp, inserted in the Aorta.
dam Courant of the 27th, states the arrival of NAPO..
I.ICON at Fontainbleau on the 23d. The silence of the
Monitevr of the 25th proves the inaccuracy of this in-
telligence. Except there were paramount reasons for
concealing it, his arrival within so short a distance of
the capital would have been announced at Paris, in the
customary way, within four hours after.
The conclusion of peace is announced in the official
Dutch paper, with a formality and precision that seem
intended as a kind of set-off against the inaccuracy of
the previous premature announcement of that impor-
tant event.

Since writing the above we have received Spanish
Papers to the 20th, and Portuguese to the 24th ult.
from which the following are extracts :—The Spanish
armies are represented as every where in motion, and
increasing in numbers and discipline, while the French
ate said to be dwindling very fast. We have been
receiving similar accounts by every arrival from Spain
for the last twelve months.

LISBON, OCTOBER 23.
On the 19th inst. a fleet of transports arrived from
England, with artillery, ammunition, and cloathing,
and about 1000 troops to join the broken regiments.
Lord Wellington is still here, but we are in daily
expectation of his setting out to join the army.

TRUXILLO, OCTOBER 15.

Soult is still at Talavera de la Reyna with 6000
men, and 4.000 more are distributed between Valde-
verda and the bridge of Arzebispo, which serve as a
corps of observation.
The French in Madrid continue to send to Bayonne
the principal persons of character who have any in-
fluence with the people.

- MALAGA, OCTOBER 10.
(ARMY OP MANCHA, SEPT. IL)
Our army has not changed its position, and the
enemy have retired to the other side of the Tagus,
leaving 1000 in Nambroca, Aluaouaud, and the
neighbouring towns.
On the 19th Ring Joseph left Madrid fri Tol„dc,,
with all the trench garrison, having lett in the ca-
pital only two regiments of renegade Spaniards, and
a small force ! How shameful that Eurrpe should
know that the capital cf Spain is guarded by Spa.
niards, themselves in the pay of the tyrant.

General Eguia has reviewed almost all the divi-
sions, which are well organized, and abundantly sup-
plied with provisons a nd necessaries.
SEPT. 30.—The head-quarters are at Daymul,
and ow troops and those of the enemy in the same
positions.

THE ARMY.

That part of the 26th regiment, whit:n ha;
for some time on detachment at Horsham, kyr
orders to march to Portsmouth on Monday, is
to embark for Walcheren.

A strong reinforcement will be sent immediAtt
to Walcheren. Siz regiments of infantry are b.,
orders of embarkation for that island. The army uL,
the command of Lord WELLINGTON will alto rlce,
considerable increase, the extent of which is 1,0;
determined.

The West York militia are ordered to march ;6 ti
Portsmouth District, to relieve the 3d Lauca.L,
who proceed from thence to Dover.

The Marines have been very lucky in recruit,
amongst the French prisoners from Flushing, it
intended to embark fourteen on boald each hue
battle ship.

GERONA, SEPTEMBER 21.

The s;lence and inactivity which are observed in the
enemy since the action of the 19th, are very remark-
able : we only perceive movements of columns from
Sarria to Salt, and vice versa—humanity is shocked
at the spectacle which presents itself in the breaches
which were attacked ; in that of Santa Luica, the
bodies of a Colonel and three officers have been found:
extending the view to those of Almanes, Geronilla,
Fuertedel, Cabello, and Calvario, nothing is seen but
heaps of dead bodies. Unhappy fate! to gratify the am-
bition L.f an Usurper ; 4000 Westphalians, a regiment
of Neapolitans, and 700 French, are 'compelled to
ofr: r themselves to be slaughtered. Such is the decla-
rß tinn of the unfortunate men, who, by their' impor-
t ul• • ie; yesterday, obtained from Spanish generosity,
to be carried to our hospitals, in order to receive from
human t, the necessary care of their desperate wounds.

The storm on Tuesday was particularly felt at Pim-
lico and Chelsea. The house of Mr. Fisher, in Bel-
grave-place, sustained considerable injury. The whole
of the bell-hangings were destroyed, some window-
curtains in a room on the second floor caught fire,
and which communicated to a book-case. There was
only a female servant in the House, who being alarmed
by the smell of fire, called in some neighbours, and
they broke open the door; and by the timely supply
of water, extinguished the flames. •
Tuesday afternoon, as the Chelmsford coach was
coming to London, the linch pin broke, and the coacll
was overturned ; three women who had left the 11th
.regiincnt, previous to its embarkation, and were ( n
their return to Ireland, were severely hurt. The y
were carried in a cart to the London Hospital ; the
coachman, who was also much bruised, was taken
back in a chaise to Chelmsford.

An accident of the most horrid description occur-
red
at the Cape of Good Hope. Three British Offi-
cers from the Garrison, having gone out on a party
of pleasure to the Table Mountain, were overtd:en
by the night. Before they could regain the plain,
thei lost their track, wandered, and separated. One
of them, with much difficulty, at length found his
way into thtt town ; but no intelligence having been
received of his companions, a party went out in search
of them. The were both found at the foot of a prte
digious precipice, crashed and mangled in the most
dreadful manner. One of them, an Aide-de.Camp
to Lord CALEDOg, had already expired, and the other
was just at the point of death. Both otthese unfor-'
tunat, sufferers were men in the prime of life, and
most promising officers.

VIIM ARM?.

A-lioet orstaatspocto, consisting of 20 or so
arrived yeattralay at Harwich to take in the troops
about to embark in that District.

So ettensive ate the preparations making for The
grand naval expedition now fitting but at Portsmouth,
that even the buoy boat, and two Dock-yard lighters,
at Plymouth, have been armed with carronades, and
sent round to the general rendezvous.

The grand expiditiott now preparing is very nearly
as large as that which was sent against Copenhagen.
In the fitting out it is divided into the First and Sc c nd
Expedition, but these divisions are probably only no-
minal; and although they may have separate objects
in view at the commencement, it is almost certain
that they are destined to join, and ultimately cc-ope-
rate in one great enterprise. The following is a pre-
cise account of the ordnance :

The whole of these guns will go in six ships, which arc expect-
ed to sail this week to jcin the First Expedition at the Nore.
These, with the bombs, shells, and rockets, arc
estimated tic stiffiLient for a bombardment of fort)
days and nights. They embrace an immense pro
portion of stores for engineers and artillery, beside
a very heavy battering train. Within the last month
from 30 to 4:) large ships have been loaded at Dept-
ford, with shot, shells, mortars, pontoons, and stores
of every kind. The provisions embarked are in the
same proportion, and more than adequate to a force
of 40;000 men.

THE DUTCH COMMISSIONERS.

1 Mr. ORD said, that in drawing the attention of
the House to a Report which had lately been laid
upon the table, he was sorry to observe that it was
too much the practice of the House to suffer such re.
ports to •be laid upon their table without adopting
any proceedings in consequence of them, or taking
.any measures to prevent the future recurrence of the
abuses which they disclosed. The Fourth Report of
the Committee appointed to inquire into the public
lexpenditure discloted malversations of so gross a na.
ture, that he thought it impossible for the House to
pass them over without coming to some resolutions
on the subject. The facts were briefly as follows
In 1795, a commission, consistin& of James Crau-
furd, John Brickwood, Allan Chatfield, John Bowles,
and Alexander Baxter, Esqrs. was instituted for the
, sale, management, and disposal of Dutch property,
captured or detained on the occasion of the com-
mencement of hostilities with Holland, in consequence
of its invasion by the French. When this commission
Iwas set on foot, no settled rates of remuneration were
fixed for the labours of the Commissioners, but they
