As we have already stated, the general aspect of
the intellirtence by the Cadiz Mail of yesterday is fa-
vourable, and by a communication received this

morning trom Dartmouth, we Teirn ihat a decisive
action has been recently fought in the vicinity of
Merida, in which the Spaniards were victorious. The
following is the communication alluded to :
" DARTMOUTH, NOVEMBER 13.
" Arrived the Unanimity, KEMP, from Viana, in
six days. The followings an extract from the Log
Zook of she above reseal, written by the British Con-
oul at that Port :3--creiseral W}LSON'S Paymaster has
just been with ate, by whom I have received the im-
portant inforftation, that a most severe battle had
been fought near Merida, where the Spaniards had de-
feated the rsench, with great loss, and taken upwards
of 1000 prisoners, among whom-was a French Prince,
and that Lord Werxibrarots had rewarded the Mcs.
senger who brought him the news, with 100 dollars."
An Anholt Mail arrived this morning, but the pa-
pers brought by it are, as usual, barren of intelligence
of much political importance, from the North of
Europe.
The Turkish and Russian armies are still engaged
beactive operations, and the advantages continue to
on the &de tithe former.
CONSTANTINOPLE, AUGUST 24.
All eyes are fixed on the Grand Vizier's proceed-
ings. According to an official dispatch received
here on the 19th inst. from Ismael Bey, he, with a
select body of 15,000 men, on the 3d, took posses-
sion of the islands lying between Widdin and Kala-
fit, which had been garrisoned by the Russians, and
therefore taken a strong position on the western shore
of the Danube. Ismael Bey has since then made
himself master of the intrenched positions at Kalafat,
from whence he can make strong diversions in favour
of the chief army under the Grand Vizier. Since
the Turkish armies have obtained these advantages,

they have been strongly reinforced.
On account of the winds, which are at this sea-
son of the year prevalent in the Black Sea, and
which confines the Turkish fleet in the Channel, the
Russian squadron from Sebastopol have been so fc,r-
tunate as to capture two Turkish corvettes near
the Heraclia, in Bythinia. These corvettes were
destined to Heraclia to keep in awe the Governor
of that place, Aly Molla, who had rebelled. The
Grand Seignior has now given the Kaimachaa Pa-
eha orders to quell this rebel at all costs.

BUCHAREST, SEPT. 14.
The Russiam Army bivouaques within a cannon
shot of the Turkish entrenchments: ..The division

under command' of General Markow, is said to have
received orders to halt at Berlad, and in the adjacent
places, for the present, which seems to confirm the
report of the Turks intending to cross the River at
Matschin, opposite to Braela. The Russian flotilla,
which attempted to force its way into an .arm of the
Danube, between the island of Slobodse and Ruds-
chuck, for the purpose of cutting off the Turkish com-

munications, has been forced by the batteries at Ruds-
chuck togive up the attempt.

SPOLSBURG, OMB, fa
An enemy's convoy passed here this afternoon,
between two and six o'clock, with a westerly wind,
top-gallant breeze, and fine weather, and is nbW out
of -sight. Thee convoy consisted of two
.ships of the
each of guns, one frigate, and one cutter brig
of 18 gnus. The merchant vessels were 5Z three:-
' mast thipc, 40 brigs, 31 galeasses, three sehoOneled,
and one sloop, in all 131 sail.
MARIBO, OCTOBER 21.
An enemy's convoy which came from the North-
ward, and consisted of two ships of the line, one fri-
gate, two brig cutters, two armed ships, and 128
merchant vessels, passed Enchoie in the afternoon of
the 20th, standing to the southward.
SALBERG, OCTOBER 25.
An enemy's convoy, bound to the northward, from
the Great Belt, is standing to the eastward with con_
trary s. It consists of four ships of the line, one
frigat see brigs, aid between 180 and 200 mer-
chantmen. Another enemy's convoy is also in sight
to the eastward, standing southerly towards the Great
Belt.
STOCKHOLM, OCTOBER so.
The post communication between Ystad and Stral-
sund having of late been much molested by French pri-
vateers, our Government has issued orders for the ar-
mament of two yachts for the future conveyance of
the mails. These vessels will have directions to repel
any attack that may be made upon them, and, it is
hoped, the safety of the correspondence and the respect
due to our flag will be insured by these means.
An English cutter, on the 22d of September, cast
anchor at Masestin, two sh rt leagues from Gresle-
hamn. Its boat, en the following day, seized the Post-
Office packet, on its return from Eckero, where it
had delivered its dispatches the preceslng evening.
The enemy only detained the crew on board for
some days, but he made use of the packet boat to
pillage, without distinction, all Swedish, Russian, and
Finland ships, which it met.


THE KING.
The private accounts of yesterday merely stated,
that his MAJESTY remained in the same state as be-
fore. His nights unhappily continue for the most part
to be resth ss.
Ari express was sent off on Wednesday morning to
the seat, of Dr. JOHN WILLIS, in Lincolnshire, request-1
ing the attendance of that Gentleman upon his MA•
JEsrv, in concert with his brother Dr. R. WILLIS, and
the other Physicians in ordinary.
The PRINCE REGENT was detained at Oatlands, on
Wednesday evening, by an injury which he received,
on the inside of his left foot, by a slip, while he was
affectionately dancing with the Princess CHARLOTTE
his daughter; considerable pain and lameness was
natural consequence ; but, we are happy to add,
that the inflammation is much abated.
Yesterday about two o'clock, the Princess CHAR-
LOTTE of WALES arrived in town, from her visit to the
Duchess of YORK, at Oatlands.
An account was received in town yesterday that
the Duchess of MARLBOROUGH was worse. Her
Grace's complaint is a cancer.
The Duchess of DavoNsman has set off for Ports-
mouth, which has for some time been enlivened by
Sir HOME and Lady POPHAM., who reside at the Go-
vernment House.
Lady KATHARINE LONG and her amiable daugh-
ters still continue at Broadstairs, where several fami.
lies have arrived within these few days for the winter
season. Many respectable families have also arrived
at Ramsgate for a similar purpose.
The King's Messenger who sailed with dispatches
for Mr. FosTEn, on the 10th of July last, is the first
King's Messenger ever sent from England to the
Uni. ed States.
Wm. WARDEN, Esq. of the Namur, has been selec-
ted by the Transport Board to accompany the Com-
missioners to South America, in the Grampus, as
Surgeon. This appointment is a distinguished mark
of respect for great professional abilities.
The House of Lords is undergoing a complete re-
pair. The seats have been removed for the purpose
of having them new cushioned.—The mats are also
removed, with the intention of replacing them with
new ones. The chair on the throne has been re-gilt,
and we understand this preparation is making, in ex.
pectation that the PRINCE REGENT will open the Ses-
sion propria persona.

The sentinels on duty on the linei opposite the
Sound, about three o'clock this morning, saw the I
flashes of upwards of 30 guns in the offing, at a great
distance to the southward ; but did not hear the re-
ports, owing to the violence of the wind. Whether
they proceeded from any engagement, or from a ship
in distress, it is therefore impossible to say.
