States] confiscate French property under the law of
Non-intercourse, they will confiscate your property
under the Rambouillet Decree."
1 am well aware that the reasons assigned by the
French Minister for the Rambouillet decree, are but
false pretences. Lying, formal, organized lying, is a
part of the French Emperor's system of government,
as the plunder of American" commerce is within the
scope of his policy." But those who still affect to
believe in his promises • who, like the President and
Congress of the United States,- pass laws and issue
proclamations founded on the promises and declara-
tions of the Emperor Napoleon, whose open violation
of the law of nations and of his treaty with the United'
States, Mr. Madison had himself publicly stated ;
whose utter disregard of truth, whose perfidy and
complicated crimes, can in modern times find no pa-
rallel ; and which have been manifest to them and to
the world :—suede men, I say, who have had the evi.
dence of his falsehood and perfidy before their eyes,—
evidence received and read by tke President, and by
him laid before Congress,—such men cannot con-
sistently object to the Emperor's iniquitous perversion
of their own acts, and offering them ae reasons for his
robberies, for they still continue to trust him.
Among the papers laid by the President before
Congress at the commencement of the last Session,
was a letter of July 5, 1810, confirming what had
been said in his letter of June .sth from Mr. Secretary
Smith to General Armstrong, in which is the follow-
ing passage :.." As has been heretofore stated to you,
a satisfactory provision for restoring the property

I decree) by the order or at the instance of the French

ASTORGA, AUGUST 14.
The enemy's troops who were in Leon and other
points of the line haVe been reinforced with more
than 2000 men. Eight Frenchmen have deserted
to us, who confess that the garrison of Leon has
been reinforced with more than 800 infantry, and
400 horse, and that more were expected. It is 'also
said that the enemy has proposed again to possess
themselves of the Asturias, but this design was frus-
trated by the movements which Porlier made on the
mountains of Santander.
ALGARVE, AUGUST 57-55.
The enemy having entered Ayamonte on the 25th
inst. it was supposed he would attack General Balles-
teros in the night between the 25th and 26th instant,
and in consequence they had the batteries on that side
the Guadina to receive him, and the light troops to
take him in Rank. But in the morning of the 26th
it was observed that the enemy's party, which en.
tered Ayamonte, had entirely retired behind the hills,
seeing the risk he would have run in such an attack.
The French continued their retreat to Villa Franca,
where they separated ; the division which came from
Seville retiring by Leppe, and that from Estremadura
towards Silvestre. General Ballesteros yesterday
began to embark his troops, and at this time they are
all on board. The French division from Seville has
set out from Leppe for Gibraltar, and yesterday
marched from this latter place for Tugueras. The.
division of Estremadura was in Puebla de Gusman.
General Ballesteros, with his troops, sailed yesterday
morning, and the only force which now remains in
this neighbourhood is the regiment of light infantry
which was in the island of Canines, and destined for
Ayamonte.

Government received dispatches this morning from
Lcrd WELLINGTON, dated Fuente de Guinaldo on
the 4th instant. No movement of any consequence
had taken place on the part of the Allied Armies.
The French army of the North, which had been
driven out of Gallicia by the combined operations of
Lord WELLINGTON and the Spanish General ABAOIA,
had proceeded in the first place towards Valladolid,
but afterwards ebanged its route and was moving in
the direction of Ciudad Rodrigo.
Letters from Lisbon of the 9th September, state,
that the French, after plundering Villa Franca, re-
tired towards Astorg.t ; their head-quarters are in
front of that town. General ABADIA has moved for-
ward to Molina Seca. Marshal MARNIONT'S army
continues to defile towards Old Castile. It is said
this army will be replaced by several corps from the
army of the centre ; they will proceed by the Tala-
vera road to Placentia. It is reported that Marshal
Socur would shortly return with a great part of his
army to the Guadiana.
A Lisbon Mail also arrived this morning, by which
we have received the following intelligence :
LtstoN, SEPTEMBER 7.
From the North there is nothing new. Lord Wel-
lington, by a rapid march, placed himself between
Bessieres and Marmout, in the neighbourhood of the
Agueda, the latter appears paralized, and remains in
the valley of the Tagus, where many of his troops
have fallen ill ; in the mean time the army of Gal-
licia remains protected on this side, and is enabled to
proceed in their discipline and organization, under the
orders of the skilful General Santocildes. From
various parts we learn that Soult has lost a battle,
fought against Blake in the kingdom of Murcia :
tliese same French have published in Badajoz that
they were victorious ; hot at this we ought not to be
sarprised, because they likewise asserted that they
were victorious at Busaco, Fuente d'Olonor, Albuera,
kc. kc. But the confused manner in which they
describe it, and Soult having ordered his reinforce.
meats to join him, gives great probability to the idea
of his having been routed.
SEPT. 10.—Head-quarters remain at Fuente de
Guinaldo. There appears a probability of a general
movement taking place very soon, but in what direc-
tion is uncertain. The troops have all been brought
between the Agueda and the Coa, except the Xem-
tejo division : Ciudad Rodrigo, probably, is the ob-
;eel.. The Alentejo division appears to be oa the

The accounts from the North of Spain state, that
the French are daily sending off reinforcements in the
direction of Ciudad Rodrigo ; the vicinity of which
place will in all probability be the theatre of impor-
tant operations in a few weeks.

The Duke of Kent packet, has arrived at Falmcruth
from New-York with Mails and Dispatches. The
Duke of Kent left New-York on the 20th August,
and Halifax on the 3d of September, at which time
no account of the action between the MELASOUS and
President had been received at either of these places.

The Dublin Papers of the 21st inst. received this
morning, contain an account of the prOceedings of the
Catholics of Francis-street Parish, in Dublin. Depu-
ties have been. appointed to co-opeiate with the other
Committees throughout Ireland.

In the-gallant action off Boulogne, which we re-
corded yesterday, the First Lieutenant of the Castilian
was cut asunder ; two were killed and some wounded.
The praam brought in, is stated to have had on board
350 men.
An official account has reached the Admiralty of
a very brilliant achievement performed by the THAMES
frigate and the CEPHALUS sloop of war, in the Me-
diterranean. They attacked, under the batteries near
Naples, 11 gun-boats, one armed felucca, and 14
merchant vessels, and captured the whole, twenty-six
ships, without the loss of a man !
French papers have reached town to the 16th. inst.
We have extracted from them the official account of
the action between Soutr's army, and the Spanish
troops under BLAKE, in which the French claim, and
we are afraid with too much truth, an important vic-
tory, although there is evidently considerable exag-
geration in the narrative. I gives, however, a much
clearer account of the affair thin we have yet re•
ceived from the Spaniards.
