THE BRAZILS.

The Mail, which we stated yesterday to have_ar-s
lived from the Brazils, was brought to Falmouth by
the Townshend,packet,Capt. Coca, after an extraor-
dinary quick passage of 41 days.
By the Townshend, accounts have been received,
that the Authorities at Buenos Ayres refuse to admit
British slips into their harbours, but are willing to -
trade with us by Spanish or, neutral bottoms. To
adopt some beneficial arrangements, in which, no
doubt, the Panics RESENT will be included, Sir
SIDNEY SMITH had determined to proceed with the
British ileet to the Rio de la Plata. An accurate un-
derstanding of the relative situation of the British
traders with the Spanish settlements appears the more
necessary, as we had advice: from Brazil, dated the
end of November, that two British vessels, with mer-
chandise of tar own manufacture, had been seized by
the natives it that river.
The Parsee REGECT has conferred on SIDNEY
SMITH a noble domain, one of the Royal Estates, esti-
mated
to be worth 70001. a year. Sir SIDNEY dates his
letters from his new palace of Braganca ; which he
describes as resembling in prospect and scite the beau-
tiful seat a Mount Edgecumbe. We are sorry to
say, that
,wbik Sir SIDNEY, by his address, activity,
and zeal, has thus conciliated the esteem and farour
of the Court, something like a misunderstanding has
arisen between our Minister at the Brazils and the
PIUNCS REGENT.
Our Readers will find some extracts from private
letters, brought by the Townshend, in another part
of our paper. They are peculiarly interesting at the
present crisis, in a commercial point of view.

The Townshend left at Rio Janeiro his Majesty's
ships FOUDROYANT, BEDFORD) PRESIDENT, SURVEIL-
LANTF. HAYACINTII) STEADY, and CHEERLY. The
British squadron, it was expected, would soon sail
thence for Buenos Ayres.

Yesterday the Princess of WALES, the Duchess of
BRUNSWICK, the Dukes Of CUMBERLAND, SussEx, and
CAMBRIDGE, dined with their MAJESTIES and PRIN-
CESSES. At six o'clock the PRINCESS and the Duchess
of BRUNSWICK setoff on their return to Blackheath.

Saturday morning a Committee of the Privy Coun-
di met at the Council Office, Whitehall, upon the
Prize Appeals, which was attended by the LORD PRE-
SIDENT of the COUNCIL, Sir EVAN NEPEAN, and Sir
WILLIAM WYNNE. Just as their Lordships were about
to proceed to business, a letter was received, stating
that Dr. LAWRENCE had been suddenly taken very ill
that his life was despaired of, and that he was, con•
sequently, not able to appear before their,Lordships.
The Learned Doctor being retained in most of the
causes appointed to come on, their Lordships
journed the Court, without proceeding upon a,ny bu-
siuess, till Tuesday, the 24th instant.

AMERICAN PAPKIii AND ORDERS IN COUNCIL.

Mr. WHITBREAD, pursuant to notice, moved

his Majesty's Ministers, since the commencement of

fore Parliament.—Ordered.—He also gave notice of

Ordered that this House do, at its rising, adjourn
fill Tuesday next.
GENERAL SIR JOHN MOORE'S FAMILY.

Lord MO lt PETH wished to ask the Noble Lord

(Castlereagh) whether it was the intention of Go-
vernment to propose any provision for the family of
that gallant and justly-lamented officer, Sir John
Moore, who bad recently fallen a sacrifice in the
cause of his country. He was induced to ask this
question, because he bad expected the able and elo.
qaent eulogium of that Noble Lord, upon the high
character and eminent services of that gallant Com-
mander, and the consequent motion for a monument
to celebrate his fame, would have been followed by
some proposition for a permanent provision to his
Aisaily, which depended urn him for support, and
'must have been dear to his affections, but that he was
hitherto disappointed in that expectation.
Lord CASTLEREAGH perfectly agreed with
the suggestion of the Noble Lord, that the family of
Sir John Moore had every claim on the gratitude and
generosity of his country : but the Noble Lord, he
was sure, would-agree with him in deferring to the
feelings of the Crown upon this occasion, confident
that his Majesty had by no means lost sight of a pur-
pose so nearly affecting the public feelings.

MUITARY BOOKS.

The want of good Military Books in the English Tateguage, is no-
torious even to a proverb ; an endeavour, therefore, to SLIF -
ply the deficiency, will, it is presumed, be honoured with en-
couragement by every lover of the interests and glory of his
Country. The under-mentioned Works are calculated for the
use and study of all the Senior and Junior Officer 4 of every
kind of Force, and it is presumed they will be read with avidi. y
throughout the English Army at home and abroad.
I.VSSAYS ON THE THEORY AND PRAC-
TICE OF THE ART OF WAR, Including the Duties of

and German Writers. In three handsome and closely-premed
volumes, illustrated with numerous Engravings, price thirty-sit
shillings, boards, or two pounds elegantly bound in calf or in

" If the principles Contained in these Essays were generally
clisserulaated4u-ough the service, and so much practical know-
ledge were brought into union with the unequalled valour atid
patriotism of the Officers of our various military establishments,
the British Army would be invincible both at home Ad abroad."

The rstablisheil character of this Work, its general reception
in the Artuy, and its adoption in all Military Schools, are the
highest eulogiums which can be Conferred upon it. Private
encomiums, addressed to the Editor, might be quoted out of
number, but he is satisfied with the utility which be believes has
attended his endeavours, ar.d is sufficiently compensated by the
sale of many thousand copies of his wt.rk in a very short period.
He hopes the princii.!es contained will be immortal, and on

Instead of a tedious detail of dines and proper names succeeding
each other, without interest, and devoid of useful information or
rational entertainment, the present work abounds in anecdote and
in facts relative to the Living Peerage. It is precisely the kind of
work which, under the name of a Compendious Peerage, has
always been sought for, but which it has• required the observa-
tions of a long and active life to collect into the present volume.
