BRUSSLI.S, AtiGusT 6.

Lord Lyndoch has been for some days past at
Liege, which is. to have a numerous Enalish garri-
son, while Namur will be wholly garrisoned by
Dutch troops.

A Gottenburgb M.til Also art ived this morning : the
following is the only intelligence brought by it:

GO1"I1:NBURGI-1, AucusT Y.

Mr. Forster hits rettaned to Sweden.

It is reported that an action has taken place at
Kragaroe, between the gun boats : 16 are said to be
taken, and three sunk.

We are without any accounts from the armies on
the I rontiers of Norway. L tt rs front St. Petersburg!)
of the 20th July say, that the Emperor of Russia was
hourly expected there.
A serious riot took place hem on the :loth July
last—fifty of the Spanish troops,• who deserted from
the French service, and have been a long while here,
waiting an opportunity to be sent home, attacked ten
of the Gottenburgh artillerymen, with stones and
sticks; and almost immediately drew their knivts.
(though they had long since, in consequence of mis-
coi.duct, been forbidden to carry any on pain of death)
which they had sharpened into the form of stilettos.
—One cf the artillery men was stabhed in the
neck, and died instantly, and the lives of two others
are despaired of. Thirty of the Spaniards were ar•'
rested, twenty-three of whom have been liberated;
and it is said one of the remaining seven is to suffer
death, and the other six to be publicly whipped, and
Lent en board the bulks for twelve months.

There are a fc w hundred Spaniards bete, and these
proceedings have czcited so much alarm, that a Pe•
titian has been sent to -the Cruwn Prince to request
their immediate removal.

The Leeward•lsland Fleet have arrived safe in the
Channel. His Majesty's ship HANNIBAL passed
Portsmouth yesterday with 170 sail under convoy ;
his Majesty's ship AMA ItANTIIE has proceeded with
that part of the fleet intended for Ireland ; and his
Majesty's ship PORT MAHON has arrived at Potts-
mouth, after seeing the Btistol ships well up that
Channel. The Liverpool letters, received td-day,
mention between +0 and 50 sail to have arrived at
that port.

Parliament will meet about the end of October, of
beginning of November, and sit for about six weeks.
A notice to this effect has already been communicat.
ed to the friends of Ministers. _

Last night dispatches for Sir GEORGE PREVOST and
Sir ALE:%-I:.vErt COCHRANE, were sent from Eari
BATtivitsfs Office, and the Admiralty, to be for.
warded from Portsmouth by the LIES'S', of 50 guns.
Dispatches were ye4terday received tram Norwa)
at the Foreign Office. It is rcpiirted that they con-
tain a solemn appeal on the part of CIIISTIAN FRS-
DERIOC, King bt NORWAY, to his Royal 1-figliness On
PRiNCE REGENT, imploring his interposition for the
independence of his new kingdom ; but, at the samn
time, cotnmiinicatini; his determination to ricl: ever.;
Linger, rasher than abandon the peorle by v.tos•
.hoice he has been raised to the TL.one.

NEW YORK PAPERS.

This morning we received a supply of American
Papers to the 14th ultimo. Great trepidation and
alarm now prevails in the American Government,
and blamsoa has resorted to siimething like a Con.
scription to meet the numerous attacks which he now
expects from England. It is ev►dent, however, that
the Americans, with a few exceptions, have no heart
for the struggle ; and we may fairly presume that
his ranks will never be fillet. _ _ _

In Charlestown, South Carolina, the Walton
party became so infuriated at the downlal of B,.rrA•
PARTE, that, as usual with the fact►ous in all countries,
they collected a mob, and would have prevented a
few poor Catholics from singing a fr D:u'n. Thr
ringleaders were Frenchmen, and hav ng been
promptly seized in the Church, the insurrection was
quelled. The same wretches threatened to born a
vessel in the harbour, because ►he had unluckily the
word " Bourbm" painted on her stern. \Vl►at
ship and alliance can Lours XVIII. expect from tht
patrons of such miscreants ?
MADISON continues to quarrel with every person
under him who has any thing like Washington ho-
uour or integrity in his composition. Ile has dis-
missed an old and faithful servant in the War De.
partment, who held his appointment from WastnNu
lON, and who charges MADISON, and we hive no
doubt with perfect truth, with conniving at the frauds
and embezzlements of his friend, the Secretary at
War. The name of the Gentleman who is thus added
to the honourable list of Mantsos's enemies, is Sys:.
51ONS ; the office he held was that of Accountant Ge.
neral to the War Department; and he has discharged

its duties for twenty years with the strictest fiJelity.
There is something peculiarly insolent, rude, and
brutalcin the way in which MADISON conveys his dis-
missal : no provision is made for old age, and no ex-
pres►ion of thanks fur past services !
Captain PourEn, late of the Essex American 111.
gate, or some person for him, has published a
narrative of his voyage from Valparaiso to America
in the Essex junior ; from which he appears to have
acted like a pitiful scoundrel. He was brought-to
on his voyage by the British ship S
NASH, who sent him oranges and newspapers,
and treated him with the utmost politeness, but
requested that he would remain all night under the
stern of the SATuuN. PORTER, upon this, insolently
desired Captain vote Ns to inform Captain NASH,
" that he was new satisfied that most British Naval
Officers were not only destitute of honour, but re-
gardless of the honour of each other; that he was
armed, and prepared to defend himself against their
boats, if sent in pursuit of him ; and that they mus:
hereafter meet him as an enemy."—Aft4 this,
skur PORTER lowered himself and his dollars into the
Ship's boat, and made off for Rhode Island, where, we
are sorry to say, he arrived with his treasure in safety.
WASHINGTON, JULY S.

The American Commissioners at Londop write to
our Government that they calculate to make peace.
But as wisdom always dictates preparation for the
worst, it would not be advisable to repose too much
confidence before it is actually settled; which it is be-
lieved will be done, and reach America in the form
of a Treaty of ,Peace and Commerce by the Ist of
Seren.ber. The Administration, however, have de.
termined to prepare for the wort, and have therefore
requested an organization of 93,510 militia, and it is
believed that they will be in readiness for either an
honourable peace or a vigorous war, as the enemy
may Fader.
