The Emperor of AUSTRIA is to proceed to Pest, to
arrange and extend the provisions of his new plan of
finance to that kingdom. The King of PRUSSIA has
appointed a special tribunal, to pronounce definitively
on the confiscation of colonial produce.
In the Journal du Soir of the 19th instant there ap-
pears the following advertisement:
gg Madame BATHURST requests her husband M.
BArnunsr, if he has thought proper to conceal him•
self, not to delay pointing out the place of his retreat.
M. BATHURST may be assured of the protection of
the French Government.

Ti WOLVERENE sloop of war, from Lisbon, was
13 of Plymouth when the Mail left that port on
Tncsday. We may therefore expect the accounts
which she brings in a few hours.
Accounts have been received from Oporto to the
tith instant, brought by a Portuguese schooner, con-
taining later intelligence than any previously received
from the army. We learn by the following letter
that the greater part of the Portuguese prisoners who
agreed to enter into the French service, have since
deserted, and gone over to the allied army

The KING came to town yesterday, about twelve
o'clock, from Windsor, escorted by a party of Light
Horse, and was received at the Queen's Palace by the
Dukes of KENT and CUMBERLAND. At two o'clock,
his MAJESTY held a Private Levee, which was atten-
ded by

..~

The Archbishop of Canterbury, the Marquis Wellesley, Earl I
of Liverpool, Lords Heathfield (Gold Stick), Boston (in Wait-
ing), and Glenbervie, Sir David Dundas, Generals Dunne and
Floyd, Captains Austen and Cochrane, Messrs, Perceval, Ryder,
Yorke, Dawkins, Adams, and Greville (Groom in Waiting).
The following had the honour of being presented
to his MAJESTY :
Lieutenant-General Dawn E, on his prometlon.
Lieutenant-General FLovn, on his return from Ireland.
Captain Ansi. en, o'a his return from China.
Captain COCHR xe, R.N. on his return from the West Indies.
Mr. Wit.t.tiot A Da us, on his being appointed a t9uimissioner
of Woods and*Forests and Land Revenue.
A dispute has arisen in the parish of St.Giles,Crip-
plegate, in consequence of the Rector claiming under
a statute of Henry VIII. the sum of 2s. 3d. in the
pound, on the inhabitants, for tythes. The parishioners
resist the demand, and it is expected that an applica-
tion on the subject will be made to Parliament.
In the course of a trial yesterday at the Old Bailey,
the Recorder ordered two persons to stand committed
for giving a false character to a prisoner, by represent-
ing him to be a person who, to their knowledge of
him for three years, had borne an honest character,
they having themselves employed him occasionally
during that period down to the present time ; where-
as, in point of fact, the person in. whose behalf they
appeared had, within the last year, been in Newgate
on a charge of felony.
Accounts 'from Vienna, of the date of the 30th
August, inserted in The .Ibeille du Nord of the 14th in-
stant, announce the pregnancy of NAPOLEON'S consort,
MARIA Lowsa, in the following terms :
" The letters from Paris repeat, that the wishes of
the EMPEROR NAPOL.EON and of the French are ful-
filled t that Heaven has blessed their marriage. This
event has spread so much joy, that the inhabitants of
the Luxemburgh gave a village fete on the occasion,
which went off with the happiest effect."
A Gentleman Who quitted Heligoland on Wed-
nesday last, states, that the preparations in the Texel
had revived the alarm at that Island, and that all the
inhabitants capable of bearing arms, were daily exer-
cised to assist in repelling an attack.
The \Lady Pellew packet has arrived from the Bra-
zils. The political news by•tfirs conveyance is not of
importance.—Some letters received froin La Plata
intimate the probability of a civil war between Monte ,
Ville() and the capital, and add, in support of this con-
lecture, that a regiment of Spaniards had disarmed
two regiments of Creoles newly raised under the di-
rection of the Junta of Buenos Ayres.
We have received a copy of a Proclamation issued
by the Marquis de Casa Yntrao, Envoy Extraordi-
nary and Minister Plenipotentiary of his Majesty,
FERDINAND VII. at the Court of Brazil, addressed to
the Spanish inhabitants of South America, and accom-
panied with the following circular letter, sent to all
the Governors of the different provinces, in order to
give it as general a circulation as possible : -
" It is now three days since the melancholy news arrivel of the
late disgraceful occurrences at Buenos Ayres. That Junta, which
calls itself a Provisional Government, has communicated the in-
telligence to me with the greatest solemnity. As I suppose your
Excellency is well informed upon the subject, 1 itobear troubling
you with a repetition of the eircums!Ace, I shall only observe,
that their tendency appear to be directed more to promote the
ambitious views of BONAPARTE than the rights of FERDINAND
the Seventh, which they pretend to defend. It is indubitable
that the resolutions of that town, and of the Cabildo, partake of
the false idea, that the Peninsula is already subjugated, and carry
with them the seeds of division' 'confusion, disorder, and anarchy,
which we know officially are designed to promote the views at
the enemy of all Europe. upon this delightful Continent. If it is
intended to assist and defend the sacred rightS of the Peninsula,-
as is pretended, for our beloved Sovereign, wify snatch away
from his hands the power he eiercised hi virtue of an appoint-
ment made by an authority recognised as legitimate.
" I am firmly persuaded, that many honest men are deceived
by false represewations, and believe that.some of those compos-
ing the pretended new Government are among the number. It
is a notorious fact that Buenos Ayres for some years past has been
undermined by party divisions : it is known that among the good
people who comprise the general mass of the population of that
distinguished capital, are unfortunately to be :lumbered many
turbulent characters; many blinded with seditious theory, and

" OPORTO, SEPTEMBER 8.

41 I write to you by the opportunity of a Portuguese
schooner, bound for Plymouth with Merino sheep be-
longing to Gmeral STUART, to give you the latest in-
formation we are in possession of from the armies,
which you will naturally be anxious to hear. I am dis-
appointed in receiving communications to-day from
heaLl.quarters, which I consider as a proof that the
army continues to retreat towards Ponte du Marcella,
where the first stand is to be made should MASSENA'S
army follow Lord WELLINGTON. We are uninformed
where head-quarters are removed to since they left Ce-
le:ico on the 3d or 4th inst. but by some it is stated,
tact the British arc at sea, and the Portuguese at
G.,aveia, which is not improbable ; although I am
more inclined to think that the former are at Lar-
hares, which is much nearer to Celerico, but- this
is of little consequence. The war will now be brought
heale to us, and our brave soldiers must prepare for
blows ; fur should the enemy follow up the British, an
immediate action must be the result. As ye Ido
not lind that the French had passed beyond Mille!
and Fraxidas, where our dragoons a few day's ago had
a very smart affair with some French cavalry and in-
fantry, which were compelled to retreat, leaving be-
hind them a few wounded and prisoners. Guarda
still continued occupied by a strong detachment of
English troops; who, no doubt, will maintain that
strong position to the very last. Governor TRANT,
with his brigade of militia, was at M.ionenta de Beira,
and Torre de Moncorva, in the vicinity of the Dotiro.
After the fall of Almeida, the garrison, which sur-
rendered prisoners of war on the occasion, had the
option of either entering into the French service, or
beinginarched off to France ; a considerable number
accepted the former, but with what view will best ap-
pear by the event ; for since that period nearly the
whole of them have come over and joined Colonel
TRANT, Marshal BERECORD, anti some the British
army. This spews that the French have no men to
spare to look after the prisoners they make. You
may, however, expect gloomy accounts from Lisbon ;
for the advance of the enemy will damp the spirits of
the natives."

Corunna papers to a late date have also been re- I
ceived. The only article of importance which
ti!ey present is an order issued by the Marquis de
It Rom fto:.‘ to the army he commands, which is
styled " The Army of the Left." From the nature '
ri its organization, and the number of corps men-
;:oned, his force appears to be much stronger than
we were led to suppose it was. The •an-guard con-
sists of six light battalions and a regiment of the line,
cummanded by General CARRERA ; the Ist division
two light battalions and eight regiments of the line,
commanded by General GARCIA ; the second divi-
sion two light battalions and seven regiments of the
line, commanded by General CIlintLES CYDONNEL ;
and the 3d division threelight battalions and six regi-
ments of the line, commanded by General BALLES.

statement ; but, from what is already known resmt-
iag it, there is no doubt of its force being from 2 to
3000 men.

COVENT-GARDEN THEATRE.---The performances of
last evening were The English Fleet and The Irishman in
London. The House was crowded in all parts, and
the utmost good humour prevailed. Mrs. Dacaoxs
sung delightfully, and BELLAMY, in Valentine, did his
best, though his voice is not at all adapted to that
part. —A gentleman made his appearance in the part-,
of Maned in the force. His figure is somewhat like
.Tott,iikiNtbi, and his brogue very natural and chaste:
He was favourably received until be began his song,
when the audience not liking his voice, which was
certainly far from good, began to hiss, and only th 4,
first stanza could be heard. But though we cannot
praise his singing, yet if he will speak a little slower'
and more distinctly, we think he may prove a great
acquisition in JOHNSTONE'S parts at this Theatre.
This day, at half past twclie o'clock, the vile mis.
creams, six in number, whose trial and conviction for
unnatur..l practices has already bccn stated in -this Pa.;
per, were brought out of Newgate, and conveyed in an
