JONKOPIN'G, SEPT. 22.

" The several convoys arrived hoe since July, still
lay r our Roads, to the number of 800 sail, and are
still wind-hound. Letters from Konigsberg, dated
the 26th last month, mention that they expect a
Commissary from Dantzie to examine the port. Some
believe tbat the duty or contribution of 4.0 or 50 per
cent. on Colonial goods, will be introduced here as
well :Is it has been in other countries The French
Ambassador in Copenhagen has made the.demand,
in a note delivered to the Count Berns(lora", the Prime
Minister, that no coin. hd produce .whatever should
be admitted, which bein. considered as a supreme
commandment has been decreed by the Danish Go-
vernment. The same demand has heen made to the
Rusii,in and Prussian Cabinets. The Embargo on
American vegsels in the ports of Holstein has been
;aim off the 25th of last month." •

Yesterday morning General Count Rosen passel
thPough this place as courier, on his wuy frail Paiis
to•Otrhro ; he is the hearer of the answer from hs
Seteue Highness the Prince of Ponte Corvo to our
mem zracious King, rclati,.-e to the succession of the
SsVedish Throne. There is reason to hope th:tt the
still answer meets the ardent wishes of the Swedish
Nation, and that we shall soon witness the arrival o
that n"b':•-minded Prince, whose talents and virthes
render him worthy of becoming the mc&ssor of the
immortal Charles Augustus.

The following letter from Oporto, came to hand
thii morning. The writer is sanguine in his hopes,
and we know that our soldiers are in high health and
spirits ; hitt as the very existence of the French army
in l'ortng will depend on the result of the expected
btlte, we cannot hope for a cheap victory. We need
hatidly aJd, that the Official accounts from Lord
WELLmorott are two days later than the following
letter :

A letter of the 24th ultimo, from a Gentleman in
the Commiss7aiat department with the army, to his
wife, contains an opinion that no. general battle would..
take place until the ensuing Spring; aad so confident 1
was he of the security of Lisbon, at least 'for a consi-
derable period, that. he invites her to put herself on
board the first packet that sails from hence for the
Tagus.
. .
It appears by letters of the 2d instant, from Co-
runna, that at that date perfect order and tranquillity
prevailed in that part of the country, and no appre-
hensions were felt of the approach of the enemy, but
on the contrary the. attention of the people was di-
rected to offensive operations. In the neighbouring
port of Ferrol an expedition was preparing for Astu-
rias to support Ponuna, who made a most successful
inroad into that province, and had been enabled to
confine the enemy wi.,:lin the port of Gijon and the
city of Oviedo.
It is said that Josnen BONA PMITE, quitting the
doubtful security of Madrid, is gone to Saragossa.
• .The following is an extract of a private letter re-
ceived by this conveyance :

" CORUNNA, SEPT. so.

" The French in the Asturias have ordered that all
parents shall produce lists of their sons capable of
bearing arms, and state therein where they now are.
Those who failto:comply with this order are to be ar-
rested and• sent to Bayonne. The property of all
emigrants is also ordered to be sequestratr‘d.
" The loss every where sustained by the -French is
incalculable. The Guerillas have ,so multiplied of
late, that they do more mischief to the French in the
course of*a monthohan they would incur by a defeat
in a regular battle. A French mail has been brought
in here, which was lately taken by a party of cavalry.'
All the intercepted letters 01 the French Officers ex-
press the opinion that the war is interminable.
" The intelligence from Buenos Ayres has created
A great sensation in Spain, but the hope entertained
is, that the new Government to be established by the
Cortes will heal all differences between the Mother
Country and the COlonies.
" An embargo is laid on all vessels in the port of
Ccrunna, with respect to their sailing to the coast of.
'Calabria. By an Officer who has arrived here we
have learned several particulars relative to the troops;
sin the Asturias, who have !ma extremely successful.
They every where attack the enemy with the bayonet,,
carty off his cannon an‘4 ammunition, and kill a great.
number of men."

A letter from a British officer, a prisoner of war,
at Giver, &Torment of An!cnnec, states as follows :

After being so long 'buoyed up with the expec-
tation of a general exchange, I now begin to !Oar
that Our hopes ' ill not be realized ; as I learn, with
deep regret, that the negociation is nearly broken off.
We are also told, that we shall be placed under greater
restrictions than heretofore ; and that after the lapse
cf another month, we are to be debarred from cor-
responding with our friends'throagh the usual chan-
nels : It is therefore probaloe that this will be the last
letter I shall be able to send you while I remain in this
country."

FINANce.—On making np the accounts of the
Consolidated Fund for tl'e quarter which expired
yesterday, there appeared a surplus of no less than
£3,399,512. It will he remembered that the income
of this fund in the last year (ended ikh April, 18100
greatly exceeded its produce in any former year ;
the clear surplus in the four quarters amounting to
R 7,019,000 ! But this extra.srdinary receipt was
stated by the Chancellor of the Exchequer to be partly
owing to circumstances peculiar to that year ; for
which reason he distinctly discl►imed any expectation
of an equal. produce for t!‘e orisent year; and in the
Estimates which at-c(,m.r• 'lied his Budget, instead of
£7,(X)0,000, the amoiti it of the surplus last year, he
took it for the present year at about £5,300,000
only. We have thought it necessary to stare this in
giving tile following eompat ikon of the two first quar-
k ters in each year ; by which there appears an increase
in the present y.•xr beyond the produce. of the cor-
respcnding half year of 1809, of .300,000, non's; th-
standinA all the special circumstances ;n favour of the
last year, al►ove alladed to. It is needless to add that
the income of the Consolidated Fund in the two last
quarters is the largest of any half year ever known. .

The building of the offices in the intended Royal
Dock-yard, at Milford, has been suspended for some
months, in cc nsequence of a dis4ereement between
the Navy Board and the Hon. Colonel GREVILLE,
respecting the purchase money of the land. During
this interim, a much more eligible situation has been
discovered in the same harbour, which, we hear, has
been surveyed, and reported upon in the most favour-
able manner. What renders this discavery the more
interesting is, that tee ground already belont's to Go-
vernment, having been purchased about 50 years ago,
for the then purpose of erecting a battery, &c.

conviviality pervaded the festivity of the evening.—
The Chairman, on giving the health of Mr. Snratinaa,
made a distinguished panegyric on his character as a
Statesman and a Patriot, which was replied to by Mr.
Snaaraaat in a manner that gained the sincere and
repeated plaudits of the company.
The litinoutable Captain Caavax is now at Ply.
mouth waiting the arrival of intelligence from Por-
tugal : In the event of its being favourable, he wiil
procead on a tour to that kingdom ; otherwise he will
go in the fist ship of war that sails for Cadiz, Gib-
raltar, or Maha. He is accompanied by a friend and
two con.dential servants. • •
Another letter from Lisbon, brought by a 'passen-
ger in the Marlborough packer, after stating the re.
treat of the allied army, continues thus ;---"TheAma.
aorta, Yortuguese frigate, sailed it few days ago with
some of the conspirators. Her destinatian was not.
known, but supposed to be for MaJeira or Terceira.
The Lavinia, British frigate, sailed at the same time,
having en board Don Juan Sebastian Camhiaso, B.
Dufoure, Almeida, the surgeon, and Pellegrini, the
artist. • Report says they are bound lhr England."
A MIN/am—Last evening, a young woman, of
rather mean appearance, knoiked at his Royal High-
ness the Duke of Cumneattan's door, at his apart-
ments in the Stable-yard, St. James's Palace, and in-
sisted upon seeing him. Being asked to state her
