THE ARMY.

The 88th Regiment, which has suEcresl so se".e.,
in the last action with the French In Portug.ll, 114 s
lately borne a very considerable share in the (Lager,
as well as in the loss which hare attended every battle
in which they have happened to be engaged. At
Buenos Ayres, it was the fate of this corps to have
been selected by General Wittratocaz to oppose the
principal defences of the enemy in the ill-fated attack
upon that town, nn the sth of July, 1807, in the pet.
formanceof which hazardous service, having advanced
far into the !meets, and not being supported from the
rear,the regiment was surrounded,and after a hopt‘le-
defence, in which they had expended all their ammo.
nition, and lost nearly half their numbers in killed
and wounded, they were reduced to the sad ahem%
tive of yielding to superior numbers, with a view to
save the lives of the survivors, The same fortune has
accompanied them since, and the advantages gained
over the French by the army at Talavera were not
purchased without greater loss having been sus-
tained by this corps, than by any other in the army
engaged on that fatal, though not inauspicious day.

Major SILVER, who fell in the vigour of life, while
leading on the right wing of the 88th Regiment to
repel the enemy's attack at Busaco, on the 27th oli,
which has been so favourably mentioned in Lord
WaLctucrros's dispatch, was descended of a respec.
table family in Winchester. It is with extreme con.
cern that we understand he has left an amiable wife,
and four young children, to bewail the untimely loss
of a kind indulgent husband and ftther, who had
spent 17 years of his life in the active and periloui
duties of his profession.

In the Extraordinary Gazette of yesterday we ap.
prehend, the name of Major BIRMINGHAM, of the Bth
Portuguese Regiment, ought to have been printed
BARNIXGHANI, thlt being the name of the gallant
Officer in question. •
Captain Buncn, the bearer of Lord WELLlxorox's
dispatches, is youngest son of THOMAS BURGH, of Old
Town, in the county of Kildare, Esq.

Captain BURGH embarked in the Tagus, and was
also the bearer of dispatches from Mr. STUART to
Marquis WELLESLEY, which were sent off on Sunday
to his Lordship at Ramsgate.
Contra q.—Coimbra is a very ancient and consi-
derable city. It is, according to Pima., the Colvin-
Mud of Arcroxtus, built by the Romans 300 years
before Ciintsr. It lhis long been celebrated for the
University founded there in 1290 by King DENIS I.
The situation of this place is delightful ; it forms
kind of amphitheatre, at whose foot runs the Mon:
dego, which, sir leitzues lower, dkcharges itse!f into.
the sea. The small plains watered by this river are
very rich, and in the highest cultivation ; they abound
in corn, wine, and particularly in fruits, which aro
esteemed the best in Portugal. The Corregidorship
contains about 150,000 souls, and the city of Coim.
bra 12,000.

The Barbary Powers having resisted both the me:
naces and promises of France, and refused to adopt
the Continental System," have of course incurred
the displeasure ~f that Government. The following
Order has in consequence been transmitted to all the
French Consuls residing at the different ports on the
Continent. The trade carried on between the Alge-
rities and 'Malta was the chief provocation to this
measure, which the former will no doubt accept for
what it is meant, a Declaration of War.

" The intention of his Majesty the Emperor is, that vessels
belonging to the Barbary Powers shall be treated in the sarat.
manner as Ottoman vessels, as, like them, they may have loaded
at Malta, and paul the duty of 20 per cent to the English.

" You therefore will immediately sequester all the Barbary
vessels which are or may,arrive in the harbours of your cLvhlun,
whatever goods their cargoes may consist of.
" You will inlorm me as soon as possible of the sequesters
laid as well on Barbary ►hips as on Ottoman ships ; you will for-
ward to me the truer vivid, with all the documents you may
►ave collected relative to the circumstances of their voyage, the
origin and nature of their cargo, and the insurance, lf any, as well
on ship as cargo.

The Er-King of SWEDEN. —A Paris Paper of the
7th inst. (Journal du Soir) contains the following ac-
count of the attempt of Gustavus Adolphus to get on
board an English ship of war :

" Koninesberg, Sept. 19.
" Count Gottorp went to Colberg, to the purpose
'of embarking and getting on board the English squa-
dron. It was intimated to him by the officer who
has the command in the town, that he had orders to
oppose his embarkation. Count Gottorp then pro.
ceeded to a small port between Colberg and Ka- ins-
berg, for the same purpose. .An officer who bad been
sent from Berlin to watch his motions, there inf rna-
ed him that his orders were not to suffer him to em•
bark. On meeting this second opposition, Count
Gottorp declared that it was his intention to go to
Russia by land, from whence he would proceed to
England, alledging as a reason for this determination,
that he was not allowed the means of living on the
Continent." _

The LATONA frigate, the arrival of which from
Gibraltar has already been noticed in the Sufi,
broug;t: home 160 Germans, and 84, Frenchmen, de-
serters from the French armies. On her passage a
conspiracy was formed among the Frenchmen to
murder the Captain and Officers of the LATONA, and
carry the vessel into a French port. They commu-
nicated their design to a German serjeant, by whom
IC was eveloped and frustrated. The Frenchmen were
put into confinement during the remainder of the
voyage.
Six French Marine Officers lately escaped from
Chesterfield, and having reached the Kentish coast,
seized a Folkstone boat, and had nearly reached the
apposite shore when the Cordelia picked them up.--
They have been ordered by the Transport Board to
