FEVER IN SPAIN.

The following is a copy of a paper transmitted to
Lloyd's by Anthony Lopez da Cunha, Esq. Portu-
;nese Consul-General in London:

PUBLIC NOTICE

Tile Commissioners of Public Health having officially received
the disagreeable information, that the yellow fever had declared
itself in the port of Santa Maria, and having taken into their
consideration this subject of such importance and public interest,
and owing to the existing intercourse between said port, Cadiz,
Porto Beal, Botta, and other places in the Bay of Cadiz, orders,

Ist, That all vessels, persons, and goods arriving from the
ports of Santa Maria, Cadiz, Porto Real, or any place situate in
the Bay of Cadiz, shall not be admitted into any of the ports of
this kingdom.
od, That all vessels, persons, and goods, arriving from other
ports of Spain, between Gibraltar and Ayamente, except those
already mentioned, will only be admitted into the port of Lis-
bon exclusively, under a rigorous quarantine, which can never
be less than thirty days' duration : well understood that they are
in all cases to be accompanied by documents from the Authori-
ties of Public Health of the ports from whence they sailed, le-
galised by the Portuguese Consuls, to prove their origin and
departure.
3d, That until the contrary is ordered, full force will be given
and exacted to what ha already been determined with regard to
fishermen and bar pilots, as per Public Notice of 30th March,
1815: first and second of 22d July, 1818; and second of 31st
August, 1819.

♦th, That the meetings or conferences ordained by Art. 3,
Tit.:., of the Provisional Quarantine Regulations of 27th July,
1807, shall take place by the military, civil, and economical Au-
thorities of each port in the kingdom, whenever t►e seriousness
of occurring subjects, shall demand it, that they may act with
more certainty and unanimity.

sth, That the necessary steps of security having already been
taken for the kingdom of Algarve', by means of a military cor-
don, established on the right bank of the Guadiana, and owing
to the measures adopted by the Spanish Authorities in their ter-
ritories, those only will be put in force for the rest of the fron-
tiers, which, without absolutely cutting of all communication,
will have for its object the qualification of travellers, and' the
verification of identity of the passports, which may be presented
in the same manner as was practised in the years 1813 and 1814,
when this same contagion appeared in Cadiz.
And that these determinations may be known to all, and to
prevent the plea of ignorance, this Public Notice is ordered to
be affixed in all public places in the ports of this kingdom, to be
rigorouqly observed until its literal exforcement shall be modi-
fied or dispensed with. (Signed) The Acting Secretary,
Lisbon, Oct. 1, 1821. FR A NCISCO DE ASSES E COSTA.

"'They were to force a landing on the opposite coast, and pro-
ceed direct to London, not, as was supposed might be done in
the time of Lloyd, by advancing only two miles a day in conse-
quence of the difficulties of the ground and the embarrassment
of baggage, but by forced marches, carrying every position by
the bayonet or field artillery. .After their landing, nothing would
in the first instance have arrested the progress of the conquerors
of Lodi, of Zurich, of Heliopolis, of Holseullnden, and of Ma-
rengo. But was the descent possible? It was not possible to
enter Dover by force. That port is situated between two high
mountains, in a position in which its lofty batteries and works,
safe from any cofap de wart, would easily destroy the most form/.
dable fleet. There was besides on the heights of Dover an en-
trenched camp, occupied by a considerable force, which would
have defended the coast under the protection of the forts and
batteries. On the other hand, how were 1500 vessels to get out of
Boulogne in one tide, and to stand over in anything like order
to the English coast? This could never he done under the fire
of the English squadron cruising in the Channel.
" But that squadron might be driven off its station by a gale ;
and before it could have time to return, the French flotilla might
cross. Be it so. But let us see what would follow.
" The English had lined their coast with strong batteries on
every point where a landing could lie attempted. Strong towers
were built at short distances along the shore, which was com-
pletely within the range of their guns; these martello towers
could not be taken by a cvdp de main. Brigade* of light artillery,
corps of cavalry, flying camps of infantry, presented a force
moveable along the whole of the sea coast by a road expressly
made for that purpose. The English had besides a great number
of gun-boats in all the ports opposite Boulogne. All small craft, all
pilot and fishing boats &c. were prepared for warfare if necessary.
" They were numbered and classed hi divisions, with Officers
ready to direct, and troops to man them. The guns and am-
munition were so disposed in the magazines, that these vessels
could be armed in a moment. Finally, besides the squadron
stationed off Boulogne, there was a fleet of observation in the
Downs, another at Spithead, and a third at the Nore. In a few
minutes the telegraphic signals could communicate between all
, these points and the Admiralty in London. Thus, whichever
way the wind might Wog, it was probable that the English
would arrive at the point of descent, if nut in time to prevent the
landing, at least soon enough to burn our flotilla. In that case,
our army would have been left without a retreat, without sup-
port, and without provisions.
"That it would have performed prodigies lam sensible. It
would not have been less magnanimous than the Army of the
East after the naval battle of Aboukir. But those opposed to it
were not Turks and Arabs. It would have had to contend against
a people of prodigious obstinacy—against a million of men in
arms, animated by the enthusiasm cf patrioti.m, and iucited by
the most implacable hatred of the French name.
" I have impartially stated our means of attack, and the Engr
lish means of defence. .1 am still of opinion that it was impos-
sible to effect a descent without the protection of a fleet equal to
that which we then possessed, and which was defeated in the
battle of Trafalgar. But it was necessary that this fleet should
first have possession of the Channel; and /the Captains who
commanded it in consequence of the inexperience of many and
the indecisioAlif others (though there were honourable excep-
tions), were such as to render a victory impossible. As to suc-
cess after the landing, I leave it to eminent Military Comman-
ders to deterndne by their skill and experience the chances of
victory and defeat. I confine myself to a statistical view of the
military and naval force of Great Britain.

.
1 " Instead of attacking the British Empire in iti centre, it would
have been more advantageous to land in Ireland. But it would
have been necessary to have made this attempt with a great ex-
pedition, Ihd General Bonaparte, instead of conquering Egypt,
proceeded with his Army of Italy to Ireland, that country woctid
certainir have been lost to England, and British power would have
sustained an irrepaz able blow. lay landing in the Bay of Galway,
to proceed afterwards along the banks of the Shannon, a fine po.
t anion would have been occupied. Ireland would have been
thrown int insurrection, the natives armed and organized In
corps, and t e English driven out of that island. We fomented
the revolt of the Irish by sending them trifling succours. They
were the victims of their confidence, and frightful massacres
followed the insurrection.

" At the time when our continental army had completed its
glory by thd 'campaign and victory of Austerlitz, England, by
destroying the combined naval force of France and Spain, off
Cape Trafalgar, secured a long duration to her maritime prepon-
derance. Being relieved from all fear of invasion, she abandoned
the defensive system, and gradually adventured an offensive war.
She failed in her rst attempt against Spain, under General
Moore; and against Belgium, under Chatham. Instructed by
these reverses, she learned to connect more perfectly her mili-
tary and naval operations; to employ more abundance and Bt..
mess in her means, more prudence in her plans, and more vigour
in the execution. The army which the naval Force at Corunna
saved fro.n destruction was soon after brought back by that same
force to the. Peninsula, where, supplied and supported by the
navy; it balanced during five years the succss of the French
troops in Portugal and Spain, which countries became the tomb
of the armies of Austerlitz and shill*"

extracts:

rzbaia,m,u...,....d114 OCTOBER 6.
The following Imperial Ukase, dated eSth Sep-
tember, has beenaddressed to the Senate :
" The Russian" American Company under our
protection, which enjoys the privileges graciously
conferred upon it in the year 1799, has fully answered
our expectations, as it Its promoted the progress of
Navigation, extended the trade of the Empire to the
general benefit,'and procure 4 considerable advantage
to those immediately concerned in it. In considera-
tion ofthis, and as we wish that it may continue to
flourish, we renew the privileges granted to it, with
the necessary additions and modifications, far a period
of twenty years from this time ; and having con-
firmed the principles laid down for it, we send them
herewith to the directing Senate, and order that the
Patent shall be made out according to the tenour of
those privileges laid before us for signature, and that
the measures depending on it shall be taken."
His Majesty the Emperor returned yesterday to,
Zarskojeselo, in perfect health, from reviewing the
Regiments of the Guards at Witepsk.
The weather is unexpectedly warm and fine, and is
highly favourable to the ripening and harvesting of
the corn, which has been kept back by the wet summer.

AUGUST 20, O.S.

'From the very beginning of June we have had an
extraordinary drought, and the heat rose to 32. Reau-
mur, by which the grass in the Steppes (which fur-
Dishes the fodder for the cattle in the winter) is quite
scorched up—nay, even the hay that was mown is in
some places burnt. The Commander of the Corps
of Cossacks here, has taken the requisite measures for
the preservation of the herds of horses that pasture
beyond the Don on the Calmuck side.
