PRAGUE, APRIL IL

Never did so great a number of strangers pass
through our city as at present; some come in from
Silesia, others from Saxony or some of the Confede-

SEMLIN, MARCH 31.
A terrible conspiracy broke out here against our
Governor. After his nipper, he had retired, accor-
ding to custom, into smother apartment, where he
was discoursing with a Suritconsulte. Suddenly an
cxplosion took place, an blew up the flooring and
part of the wall. The Governor, and those who were
vith him, were, however, but slightly wounded.-
33is own brother, a young man between 17 and 18
rears of age, avowed that he was the author of this
al:d that he lamented he had not succeeded in
'Ls plan, which was also to destroy his other two
brothers. He was condemned to death, and executed
the same day.

The subject of our foreign telationi Was lag night
taltentp iii the House of CoMmons by Mr. PON-
soNiyi principally, we belieie, with a view to obtain
inforthation respecting the real dispositiOns of the
CROii/N Putztct bf SwEnsir. The answer of Lord
CASTLEDEACIX wail at might be expected, tautiout
and guarded;
The affairs of the iiorth excite; at this moments no
small degree of interest in the Minds of thinking men.
Sweden, it was expected; 'Would embark without re-
**, and with zeal and ardour in the Common, cause ;
but, unhappily, the jealouiles and partial interests of
Sweden and Denmark; threaten to sender abortive
this part of the plan of the Allies. Whither thii ca-
lamity is to be ascribed to the unreasonable demands
of Denmark; or to any selfish views of BERNADOTTE
on Norway; a little time will serve to explain but
the effect is equally to be deplored; fot in either case
the Swedish troops may possibly be withdrawn froth
the ranks of the Allies. Indeed, if we May credit re-
ports that haire Leached town, the Swedish ad-
Tanced guard, which were landed at Stralsund; has
hem re-embarked, and by this time has returned
to. Sweden. Another report was also in circulation
yesterday afternoon, that the eikowm PRINCE had not
cnly srxeded from the common cause, but acted the
part of a traitor to the Allies: it was affirmed that
a letter from him, addressed to NAPOLEON, had been
intercepted, in which he sent him the plan of the
campaign.

The latter report is altogether undeserving of cre-
dit. BERNADOTTE) were he the villain, would not be
the fool to trust such a secret to a written dispatch ;
tat the former, we think, may prove correct; and we
think it also possible that, whatever may have been
the demands of Denmark, the CROWN PRINCE (now
'hat he has pocketed a British subsidy) may be found
zo have listened to a selfish at.d mischievous policy,
and to have resolved on assailing the dominions of
kis neighbour.
That some of the Northern Powers entertain views
.consistent with the principles by which all ought to
be aclaated at the present moment is, we fear, too
Certain, and it is much to be lamented. We had
thought that the selfish views of petty interests, which
have successively undermined all the coalitions formed
ince the commencement of the French revolution,
had been banished from the present portentous and
glorious struggle of the Nations of the Continent
aga.ast the despotism of France. We had endeavour-
ed to persuade ourselves that the experience that has
%sin afforded by the revolutions that have emanated
from this parent of disorganization—the contempt
that has been hurled on legitimate Sovereigns, ren-
dered impotent by the effects of these revolutions, by
their own want of union, and by their own selfish but
mistaken policy, would have operated to guard them
against that dissention and disunion which has con-
tributed so much to the aggrandisement of the com-
mon enemy and would have secured that regular
and consistent line of policy which can alone assure

the affeettons of thitioactiae; In4l ternmand thaw
sacrifices which they are ever wilrtitg:tO make'when
they see them properly appk4=Birt what are wt
to think of preient appearances ?
If the vast assemblage of foreei now in the field
against BONAPARTZ (and we hate that Sweden will
yet furnish her contingent) is not guided by one com-
mon interest, viz. the coinplete and unqualified libe-
ration of Europe, by the total destruction of the
causes Aids have so long compromised her repose
and indepeiidence, we fear that we can expect nothing
but temporary successes ; and unless they completely
renounce every interest of a secondary, local, or in•
dividual nature, the powers now armed or ready to
arm, have still a most arduous, and perhaps a most
disastrous career to run.

These reflections naturally present themselves from
the events that have transpired, and the rumours that
are afloat—but it is not impossible that an event of k
different kind may soon throw a fresh apple of di--
cord among the candidates for individual benefits—
an event which will present unhoped for objects to the
views of many, and excite no little degree of interest
among all.
We here reason to believe, from some circumstan-
ces that have come to our knowledge, that a disposi:
don has been manifested by NAPOLSOIf to enter into
a negociation with Russia for the restotation of peace.
We do not profess to have any knowledge of the na-
ture of the offer, nor through what medium the pro-
posal was made. We shall, however, not be sur-
prised to hear that something like the Treaty of
Luneville may have been the project for the basis.
Though this would be granting much of what Rus-
sia, &c. are contending for, it would be far short of
what would or ought to satisfy the people of this
country, and also short of the expectations which our
Northern Allies have raised in the world ; because,
it would be admitting as the basis of the negociation,
that England was not to be a party in the new gene-
tal peace for the Continent, and in fact, that the
Continental System, now destroyed, was covertly in-
tended to be renewed. This is perfectly consonant to
the general policy of France, but we cannot believe that
the Court of Russia will ever prove so derelict as to
listen for a moment to a proposal which, affording a
temporary respite, would, in fact, be nothing else
than laying the foundations again of that monstrous
tyranny which extended to Moscow, and has been so
strikingly punished in the consequences that have
followed- the conflagration of that venerable city.

It is believed that in a few days Lord AtEnnEEN
will set out on a diplomatic mission—probably to
Vienna.

The killowing are some further extracts received
bribe Lisbon Mail :

44 LISBON, APRIL 20.

" According to the estimate of au Intelligent observer, who 14
well acquainted with what passesin the itinerant Court of Joseph,
there have marched lint of Spain for France, between the 16tk of
February, and the 28th of Marih, 1211 officirs of different ranks'
6000 coryiorals and serjeants, and 16,000 soldiers, including 11190
cavalry. This does not appear td be exaggeration. Bonaparte,
as we have seen, has t dnfessed tlidt he has drawn out of Spain,
150 quarters of battalldns, and 50 squadtdns, besides the guards
and Poles. It is true that, according to the accounts we have
received, some conscripts have come in their place ; but suck a
reinforcement is unfit Co supply the place of the troops withu
drawn, as these conscripts are not only boys, but without mill.
talt discipline. The French evacuated 'Talavera la Reina, on the
9d of April. On the 11th, the garrison of Toledo, which con-
lists of 1900 French, evacuated that city. It is hoped that by
die end of April they will do the same at Madrid. At Salamanca
500 b French have lately entered ; 1000 horse have marched for
Ledesnia, and the remainder are occupied in reconnoitrlngs."

" CORUNNA, APRIL 14.
d The letters which we have received from Leon and Bena-
vente all assure us, that the French evacuated Villalpando,
Baycras, and Mayorga, on the Ist, 2d, and Sd of this month;
and all these garrisons are united in Rio Seco, where they were
reviewed on the Sd; to the amount of 1500 horse. In Benavente,
It is said, they are conducting their artillery to Valladolid.
" It appears that the enemy are concentrating their whole
forces on the Douro. We also mug believe that the voluntary
evacuation of Leon, and many points bn the banks of the Esla,
the Cea, and the Valderadney, has some ob)ept which particu-
larly occupies the attention of the French. The many fortifica-
tions, parapets, fosses, and other works of defence, which we
know they are forming in Burgos, would indicate that they mean
to retire towards tilt Ebro, if we did not know that they are
working on others of the same kind in Toro and Tordesillas,
which, according to appearance, they mean to secure at every
expence.—As we have not sufficient data, we cannot at present
offer any observations founded on facts, concerning the direction'
which the enemy intends to take; we believe, however, that
they will not abandon the banks of the Tagus and the Douro,
till the Spanish Anglo-Portuguese army makes a movement.
" BADAJOZ, APRIL S.
" This day, in the evening, General Castanos marched for
Ciudad Rodrigo. It is said that Lord Wellington has ordered
100,000 rations to be prepared in Truilllo, and the troops of
General Hill to advance : it is also said, that General O'Donnel
will come with his army into this province, whencehe will march
fur Mancha."

" MADRID, APRIL 11.

" General Hugo has made known to the Municipality, the ne-
cessity in which the troops were to evacuate Madrid, and charged
them with the preservation of the people, and the conservation
of the military and public edifices: finally, he ordered the Go-
vernors of the Alcala and Arganda, to assemble all holding civil
and military employments, to be ready to go at the first discharge
of cannon; whence it is hoped, that to-day or to-morrow the city
will be lef; at liberty.
" ALICANT, APRIL 3.

" The allied army continues to make Its dispositions with the
greatest activity. The enemy have collected all their force, and
assert that In cm they are defeated they will retire upon Sagunto,
which point they will defend, unless the Duke of Ciudad Ro-
drigo shall oblige Soult to retire upon the Ebro.
" We have learned from a person who has arrived from Ve-
hicles that there is not a frenclintaa in that city, all having gene

• . . •
of for Xatirt and other *Amin toorns, carrying all the sigh,
mil eves the beds of the isOspitalioo Tortola ; that there ire
loly in the citadel two lroW eanoces, and that the said citadel is
mined." •
Other tetteri received bT thi Liihon Mail haVe
brought an account that the Pacific bad arrived there
from New York, with flour, haVing sallettfrom thence
on the 21st of March bit the brought fiy her
being put on board tlie packet, not yet arrived; have
not come to hand. By her lie learn; thit there
was not a British pendant flying off NeW-York, but
that there were several in the Delaware and
Chesa-
peak. The President was nearly ready for sea, but
the Macedonian, after every exertion, could not be got
ready, for want of a sufficient number of hands.—
All the British tidiest: at New Torh have been marched
250 miler kW the interior !!—lt further appears by the
Lisbon letters, that the American Etecutiie require
40 millions of dollars for the service of the year.
They have attempted a loan of 16 million, but have
been able only to raise four millions. MADISON'S party
are deterinined to carry on the war with the greatest
vigour, and they complain bitterly of the Federalists
for thwarting the endeavours of Government, by ex-
citing the people to call for peace.—/n Boston, the
Constitution, the United States, and another frigate,
were lying in the harbour.
