A mail from Lifbon arrived at Falmouth on Sa•
turday, brought by the PRINCB or WALES, Captain
T, DO, in 13 days horn the Tagus, where fhe left his
M4je,ey's !hip LIVELY, Capt. 111•KINLry, and the
TOWNSIMID packet, Capt. Dona. All was doubt
and conjetiure at Li(bon when the packet carae away,
refpeeing the intention of France towards Portugal.
It was reported that Spain had made a demand of
eight fail of the line from the Portugnefe, but there
was not the fmalle( appearance of their compliance
with this regulation. The report of the failure of our
expedition to Buenos Ayres appears to be unfounded,
no fuch accounts had reached Lilbon when the packet
failed.

Paris Journals to the 29th ult. and Dutch to the
4th inft. have been received. The intelligence from
Zealand given in thefe papers, though not very recent,
is intereßing. Allowance, however, mull be made
for the channel through which it comes. The addrefs
of the Governor of HoMein enumerates the demands
pretended to have been made by our 'Court
But it is at variance with the Proclamation of Lord
CATHCART and Admiral GAMBIER. Our Readers
will eatily judge which is entitled to moil credit.—
The converfation between the Crown Prince and Mr.
jaczson, if not a mere French fabrication, has cer-
tainly received a few embellAntents in the Moniteur.
A great French force is collating in Hanover,
probably with the intention of occupying Holilein ;
for the Moniteur fays, " Denmark (hall be fupported
both with men and money."
Thefe papers Rate, what we did not know before,
that Helligoland has been occupied by our country.
men—perhaps by detachments from come of our
cruizers on that Ration.

It appears that Strdlfund, the capture of which
by the French, we have before announced, had been
evacuatcd by the Swedes fome hours before the enemy
knew the fad ; a cirCumftance which teems to have
mortified NAPPLEOII, if we. may judge by the Rik in
which it is announced in the Mosittur.

The accounts from the frontiers of Turkey prove
that the Emperor ALIXANDER has been inexcufably
precipitate in patching up a peace with France.—
Had be carried on the war for a few months longer,
the fuccefs of his arms againft the Turks would loon
have left at his difpofal all the troopremployed in the
South, and enabled him to reinforce his army in
Poland.

The Addrefles of the French Leginatire Body and
the Tribunate, and the periodical expofition of the
Rate of the Empire deferve particular attention—
France is to be all in all : Paris is to be the grand
capital of the world—there has NAroraou fet up the
"Thrwts which 'proem all Europe." Let the Emperor
Asezatroma read this with complacency.

THE EXPEDITION.

We entertain the moil fanguine hopes that the next
difpatches front the Baltic will ann-uince that Co-
penhagen is in our poffaffion. Letters of the 33 inn.
were yellerday received (rein Holland, by one the
mon refpeetable houfcs in the,City, which Mention
that the Capital and the Navy were fnrreniereJ, by
capitulation, after a bombardment and cannona.!e of
two or three days. The attack cotnmenced, ace•nd-
ing to there accounts, on the :Id, and the fturender
took place on the 25th ult. The intelligence is fully
believed by the refpeaable perfon to whom it was
tranfrnitted, and was ennfidered by him of friffi:ient
authority to he communicated to Government
Government have not received any further intelli-
gence From Lord CATHCART and Admit al GA Masai,
nor any thing whatever to corroborate the report in
the city. It is believed, howev. r. later intelligence
trom she Baltic Fleet than that which G•Aiernment
has made public entontages nleaftng hope
that th: obka of the Expedition agai ft Zealard r:ill
be completely attained without further bloodflted,
the Danes having fignified to our Commanders in
Chief certain conditions on which their Capital and
Navy will be furrendered, in unit, to the British
Government. Thefe conditions, it is laid, fiipulate
for a guarantee of the integrity of the whole Datiifh
territory, including Holstein, which it is to be
feared, cannot now be given. We exhibit this Rate-
ment as it has reached us, without being able to pledge
ourfelves for its accuracy.
Several veffels have arrived in Scotland from.
the Baltic, n me of which bring new.. of a later date
titan the official difpatches. But when our letters
came away from Grimfby en Sunday, the Nance
WILLIAM armed (hip was then coming into the
Roads, with a convoy from the Baltic, fo that we
are in hourly expedatiln of receiving advises from
thence of a recent date, and an important nature.

Dock Yard, ohreded a man, dreffed in jacket and trowfers, pair-

and, not receiving the parole. or any enlace whatever, periled
him, and at the fame time gave the alarm. The man, though
clofely prefred, eluded the vigilance of his purfuer, and contrived,
to fecure his retreat by pang, it is fuppofed, between the timber

When the workmen came Into the yard, at five o'clock the next
morning,the (arch was renewed, but without effed. It Is almoft
impoffible for any puke, however well acquainted they may be
with the yard, to get in or out at any one part of 1., without inime•
diate detediou ; this eircumftance has given rife to a variety of
en •jettures, and for the moment, (confidering the reedit danger-
ous occurrence excited among the refidents of the Dock Yard)
a eonfiderable degree of bottle and alarm.
