CROWN-OFFICE, JULY 20.
MEMBERS RETURNED TO SERVE IN THIS PRESENT
PARLIAMENT.
QuziN's COUNTT—The Right Hon. Wm. Wellesley Pole.
DOWNING-STREET, JULY 16.
A Dispatch, of which the following is an Extract, has been re-
ceived from Lord 'Viscount Wellington, addressed by his Lord-
ship to the Earl of Liverpool, dated Quints de St. Joao, June
a 7, 1211.
The enemy made a great reconnoissance with a
very large body of cavalry upon Elvas and Campo
Mayor on the 22d instant. The cavalry of the Army
of the South went upon Elvas from the neighbour-
hood of Olivensa, and the woods between that town
and Badajoz ; and the Cavalry of the Army of Por-
tugil upon Campo Mayor, from the Neighbourhood
of Badajoz.
The former succeeded in cutting off a picquet of
the 11 th Light Dragoons which had been posted on
the Caya in front of Elvas, under the command of
Captain Lutyens. It is understood that the cause
of this was that Captain Lutyens mistook a regi-
ment of the enemy's Hussars for a body of ours sent
to his support.
The 2d Hussars also, which were on the Guadiana,
on the right of Elvas, suffered in their retreat towards
Elvas.
The enemy were kept i* check in the neighbour-
hood of Campo Mayor by the Hon. Major-General
De Gray's brigade of British and Brigadier-Getieral
Madden's brigade of Portuguese cavalry, and they
retired without seeing the position of our troops.--
Since that day they have made no movement of Im-
portance. Their army is along the Guadiana be-
tween Badajoz and Merida, and their principal occu-
pation appears to be to procure subsistence.
They are already beginning to experience, in some
degree, the effects of drawing together, in Estrema-
(tura, their whole force.
Genes al Bonnet has evacuated the Asturias.
Don Julian Sanchez has possession of the open
country in Old Castile, and has recently intercepted
a valuable convoy of money and provisions on the
toad from Salamanca to Ciudad Rodrigo ; and I
learn from Valladolid, that a very valuable convoy,
consisting of Joseph Bonaparte's baggage and proper-
ty, has %wen intercepted by Mina, near Victoria.
General Blake crossed the Guadiana (as had been
arranged) on the 22d inst. and I understand was at
Castillegos on the 24th.

" The Gth title of the law imports, that the maxi-
mum of the perpetual debt shall be fixed at 80 mil. ,
lions ; that this sum shall never be exceeded, with-
out at the same time establishing a sinking fund, suf-
ficient to bring the whole of the debt within the
amount above specified in the course cf 20 years.
" In matters of finance, the question has been
sometimes agitated, whether the expences of a state
should be regulated en the produce of its ordinary
resources ? or whether these ordinary resources may
be augmented by extraordinary measures and taxes.
in proportion to the wants and circumstances of the
moment ?
" An individual deranges his fortune, if he does
not regulate his expences and his mode of living by
his income. The same principle is applicable to small
states, whose means are circumscribed within narrow
limits ; it is dangerous for such states to over-step
them. even though they should derive a momentary
advantage from it. The case is not the same with
states ot the first rank ; circumstances and events
which might dry up the sources of their prosperity, or
affect their existence, may force them to efforts which
exceed their ordinary means, and aggravate. the bur-
den of taxation. This is particularly applicable to
those whose internal sterngth and fertility of territory
present certain resources to enable them at a future
period to relieve themselves from the embarrassment
produced by an over-load of debt or of taxes. Suck
nations cannot, without endangering their existence,
sacrifice to mere considerations of finance the powerful
interest of a high policy. We may even go farther: the
Government of a country, such as we have d,:scribed,
would not perform its duty, if, from motives of mco.
nomy alone, it should neglect the dictates of prudence
and foresight. It must' look to the present, think of
the futuie, but must not faar it. Nevertheless, it will(
be always dangerous, even for the greatest state. never
to think of the extinction of debts, which, from urgent
circumstances, it has been obliged, to.contract beyond
its ordinary means and resources. The decline or the
rain of many states who have nc,slected this principle
evince its truth.
" A wise Government will always labour to dimi.
nish its debts;' and it it is good policy that capitalists
who wish to place a part of their fortune in the pub.
lic funds should have an opportunity of placing them'
in those of their country, instead of being obliged to
seek for it abroad, it' is not less important to bring
back the public debt to a rate and proportion which'
shall Appear suitable and sufficient for attaching the
fortunes at individuals to that of the public.
0 These are the principles which characterise the
arrangements laid down in the 10th and 11th articles
of the law. The perpetual debt is there fixed at &)
=limns ; and this maximum is n.)t to be exceeded
without a sinkii:g mad being appropriated for it li.
guidation, and the perpetual debt being brought
back in about 2J years to the rate of 80 millions.
" How happy is the nation governed by a Sovereign
who has caused an arrangement so salutary to be con-
verted into a law, and the internal strength and're-
sourcei of which, independent of all extei nal causes.

VICTORY AT ALBUERA.
A proposition was made by the Senior Riesca, and
referred to The Committee of Rewards and Remune-
rations ;---first, that there be erected in the plains of
Albuera, a Grand Column, which should record to
late posterity, the glorious victory of the 16th of May.
And secondly, as scarcely a house in the-town of Al-
buera has been left habitable by the enemy, that a
new town of equal she should be built on or near the
spot, which should be exempt from all rates and taxes
for the term of ten years.
N. B. There is a Column still existing in the plains
of Almanza, erected in commemoration of the famous
battle which placed the Crown of Spain on the heads
of the Bourbon family.
At the elegant fete given on the 90th of May, by
the British Minister, his Excellency D. H. Wellesley,
in celebration of the Natal Day of our beloved Sove-
reign,. Ferdinand VII. the most cordial conviviality
reigned. After the healths of the respective Sove-
reigns were toasted, Don H. Wellesley gave, 44 The
August National Congress." . The Presislent of the
Cortes proposed the healthof 44 The illustrious Lord
Wellington." The Vice-President gave, 44 The eter-
nal friendship and union of the two free Powers,
England and Spain." The Minister of State drank,
44 A speedy general insurrection of all the nations of
Europe against Bonaparte."

CEUTA, MAY 29.

-- .
For some days a strong rumour prevailed of the
existence of a conspiracy of a dangerous nature in this '
city. The Governor, Sencr Alos, who is always on
the alert, soon ascertained the fact. His zeal and
patriotism animated him to extraordinary exertions ;
he discovered the plot, the chi.f instigator of which
WAS one Antonio Esquivel, a well-known character
in Seville. This person and his fellow conspirators
were arrested ; they were tried, and the charge prov-
ed against them. Esquivel was hanged ; his head
was cut off, and placed over the tavern where they
plotted together. The city has since remained per-
-1
fectly tranquil. The Governor is satisfied as to the
patriotism of the inhabitants, whose love of justice
and of order will not adow them to give ear to a per-
fidious enemy, or to compassionate those malefactors
who sought to aggravate the evils of an offended
country.
