DUTCH PAPERS.

PARIS, LILY 1.

From a report present, d by the Minister at .War
to his MAjesty, it appear:, ill:tulle number of troops
that were recinced, Or obtained-et-tit discharge in the
different corps Imween the Ist of /ii,vember, 1807,
and-die ISt of Ittyrary, 1809, amounted to 31,9.31
men, including 681 officers, who, by sceciAl decrees
of his Majesty, obstained a complete discharge.-
The Afoniteur contains the following lune on an ar-
ticle in the Lo Journals, stating the defeat of
General Sebastiani This intelligence is false.
Genet al -Sebastiani has, every where, been successful ;
and' throughout the• whole. of the campaign, the
proofs which he has given of his skill 'and bravery,
gave ben commensurate with h;s good fortune.—
Jaen, Grenada, Malaga;'and Murcia, hive been sue-
6.ssively conquered by the corps tinder his command.
But ail this serves to amuse the idle curiosity of the
inhabitant'sOf London, and- helps then) to support
the great loss of their army in Portugal, which the
intelligeat part of the English people consider as ine-
vitable."

On a parigr—dph iii the' same papers, alluding to a
report of a negociation • for peace being on foot be-
tween Russia and England, the lifenitcur makes these
remarks : .
66 It appears that England still 'cherishes the idea
of a coalition. Never were France and • Russia
more closely united, and never were'they more 'firmly
resolved to co-operate in the prosecution of the pre.
sent war, and not to ruin themselves for the purpose
of supporting the maritime tyranny of England. But
this artifice of rumoured wars upon the Continent is
one of the means which the British Government em-
ploys to induce the English to drain themselves of men
and money in a contest so disproportioned to their
pm.ver and situation. We see, on the contrary, that
they have nothing to expect but new enemies; as, in-
stead of a peace with Russia, they will have to an-
nounce a war with Sweden."

The letter of marque Fingal, Captain DUNNING,
has arrived at Torbai, , in 76 days from Buenos Ayres.
She brings information that on the 20th of April ad-
vices were received there, from Lima, that no Bri-
tish ships would be allowed to enter the ports on the
coast of Peru. In consequence of this intelligence,
the sh'p Druid, of Liverpool, which was lying loaded
at Buenos A yres, intending to proceed to the coast of
Chili, was stopped from proceeding to her destination.
On the 25th June the Fingal was chased for eight
hours by a vessel which hoisted a Danish ensign, but
supposed, from her movements, to be a French pri-
vateer. The chacer at last bore up and steered to the
westward. On the 30th June spoke his Majesty's
ship EMERALD, Captain MAITLAND, in lat. 46. 14. N.

Letter s hive been received from the island of Curacoa
of the 2.441: May, from which it appears, that the plans
which had been adopted for the formation of a new
Government in the Caraccas were considered by most
people in that quarter as having been too, precipitate.
i Accounts having been received from the mother-
' country that the affairs of Spain were by no means
desperate, the Deputies, who had been sent to the
itowrs in the interior, received very unfavourab!e
I, nswets to their proposals. In a word, the peotie
their acknowledgment of the Supreme Regency,
.eclared that so long as an inch of ground was
!etc:Wed in Spain, they were determined not to aban-
on the Mother Country. Even the parties who had
- ken the reins of Government into their hands have
bandoned them, and, for the rresent, the old regime
• to be followed.
i Letters of the 26th ult. from Gibraltar assert, that
he Regency of Cadiz, feeling themselves secure from
e attempts of the French to subdue that place, have
med it expedient to send 5000 men to Algesiras,
*I: a view to cut off, if possible, the retreat of the
french from the part of the peninsula.
1 The same letters state that the inhabitants of Ma-
•d have several times attempted to extricate them.
Ives from the oppression of the French in that city ;
I; t, oss ins; to the enemy's force being very great, with-
: t any kind of success. Their spirt though re.
ained, is by no means subdued.
We are sorry to learn that die brave General O'Dox-
L. partly from the severity of his wounds, and
1 rtly helm disgust, had resigned his command.— I
l'se French had been re _raised in an attack upon Mi..' inenza, and General Done had left Tarragona
h a reinforcement of 2500 men, and a large sup:
of provisions for that place ; so that no appre-
si .•s. were entertained for its safety. &our, as •
II as 'Woe:may, is said to have been disgraced, and '
railed from his command. The Spanish army of
i
.! Centre was n a forward
,state of re-organization,
d shortly expected to present a formidable front to
t
. . r enemy, _
