case, has sent orders from /Eoron, to sell all his fur-
niture, as he does not think of returning. This mer-
chant has many opportunities for calculating respect-
ing future political points ; and now the state of things
obliges him to give up, to secure his safety, and the
immense profits he made in Spain. All goes on
well ; our presages begin to be fulfilled ; and we al-
ready begin to see in our free soil many faces unknown
during our past torments.
JUNE 12.—The long wished-for moment of a new
epoch in the political and military history of this
August province is approaching. The enemy, who
• has so long cruelly desolated it, can at present
scarcely protect the rich convoys proceeding from it
to France.
The well-combined movements of the allied armies
in Castile and Valencia, have naturally an influence
upon this part of Arragon, drawing the relics of Su-
lihet's army towards the military points of the theatre
en which they act. Already do the anti-patriots of
Saragossa begin to perceive this change of things—
a change which, in the excess of their delusion, they
considered impossible, as if the fortune of the ill-dis-
posed should be eternal.
JUNE 16.—0 n the 6th and 7th, we heard a fire
freirn this side the Ebro. Every thing leads us to
suppose it was in consequence of a disembarkation
en the Catalanian coast, by the allied troops-; and it
even added, that they have taken the fort of Col de
Balagner, and the advanced works of Tarragona.
We consider those successes as very likely, consi.
dering the late embarkation of 13,000 English at
Alicant, the manner in which the French forces are
divided in Catalonia, and their trifling garrisons in
the forts and fortresses of that province.
. CADIZ, JUNE 25.—(From the Consiseo.)
In one of our late numbers we gave a bulletin of
Bonaparte, in which be proposes a Congress at
Prague, at which should be present, 'on his side, the
Plenipotentiaries of France, Denmark, the United
States, and the King of Spain ; and on the other side,
those of England, Russia, Prussia, the Spanish In-
surgents, and the other allies of the belligerent mass.
That. Bonaparte should propose a Congress for peace,
seems equivalent to a victory on our part ; and
though his principal object be to gain time to recruit
his strength, yet, undoubtedly, his former violent and
unmeasured tone has been considerably moderated of
late. The 'war of Russia and of the Peninsula has
brought him to his senses. Never will Bonaparte be
again what he was, when, with so much arrogance,
be crossed the Vistula ; and, he events what they may,
never will Europe see herself in a worse situation roan
that in which the Spring of 1812 found her. Bona-
parte, however, proposes that the King of Spain, that
is, the automaton Joseph, should come to this COn-
Riess. In a fit of insanity be Might contemplate such
an absurdity, but could riot entertain it in his sound
senses. • Su: a proposition is equivalent to Bona-
parte's sayWg to Russia and England—„ If you
choose to enter my Congress, begin by violating you+.
sacred engagements with Spain: you will then form
a sacred compact with me." Such is the Tyrant's
invitation to ti.ese Powers. Russia and England
have recognised Ferdinand VII. as the only Sove-
reign of Spain,—the Cones and Regency as its only
legitimate Government ; and does he suppose they
'will enter the Congress acknowledging Joseph
Madman ! all the Allies have acknowledged Ferdi-
nand as legitimate King of Spain, and they will now
begin with recognising Joseph ! ! But he invites also
to his Congress the Spanish Insurgents, (whom he
has so oftelt called Rebels). And for what purpose
should they be present ?—Ti affix the seal to their
servitude ?—To ask pardon for their offences ?—To
cover themselves with disgrace and infamy ?—To
implore the favour, of Joseph, and the protection of
the Corsican Monster ?—Doe; Bonaparte forget that
the noble pride of these Insurgents has maintained,
for the last six years, a glorious contest against his
secret intrigues, his colossal force ; and that they. are
resolved to perish rather than degrade the:me:yes ?
The Spanish I,nsurgents may make treaties with
Fiance ; never with Bonaparte.

We are desired to state, -ihat Messrs. LONGMAN
And Co. Will publish, on onday next, August 2d,
Sir. Robert ker Porter's Narrative of the late Campaigns
bo Austin, iilustrAted with Plans, &c. of the general
movements of both Armies, during "their advance
and retreat. The Work will contain information

drawn from official sources, and from intercepted
French documents, hitherto unknown to the British
public. Sir ROBERT having been on the spot during
die whole Campaign, and from his extensive infor-
mation concerning Russia and Russian affairs, we
may expect lie will give a correct and faithful account
of that most interesting period.
