Since our last, Rear-Admiral Sir THOUAIWILLIAPU
arrived at Portsmouth from Lisbon, in the Hautrisat.,
74, Captain A. KING; with the DREADNOUGHT, 98,
Captain S. HOOD LINZEE ; and TOSNANT, 80, SirJoui
Goße. They left Lisbon on the 9th inst. two days
after the last packet which arrived. They do nst
bring any later accounts from the British Army than
those /bought by the packet. It was the general opi-
!lion at Lisbon that the French Army had retreated
entirely out of Portugal. Two hundred sail of trans-
ports also left the Tagus on the 9th, under convoy of
the MARS, 74, Captain ROPER, for England. They'
are a part of those which had been ordered to lie in
the Tagus, in the possible event of our army being
obliged to evacuate the country ; from• which service
they have been happily discharged, by the successes
which have of late attended the Portuguese cause.—
, The CAME, 80, Captain GRANDER, parted company
from Sir THOMAS WILLIAMS at the back of the Isle of
Wight. There were remaining in the Tagus—Bir-
fleur, Zealous, Impetueuz, Abcrcromby, and Auda-
cious. Sir THOMAS HARDY came passenger in the
Tonnant. The Mars arrived at Portsmouth on Sa-
turday night. Her convoy are supposed to be cloe
up with her.
A Mail has also arrived from Cadiz, bringing prin-
ted journals to the sth inst. They contain one most
sat►sfactory article of intelligence. Mr. &rums; it
appears, was misinformed respecting the re-embarka.
tion of the corps under General ZATAS, and the con.
sequcnt failure of the plan to form a junction with
BA.LLASTEEOS. That very meritorious officer did in-
deed re-embark apart of his force on the 29th ult. (as
stated in Marquis WeLtut.tv's note to the LORD
MA-son) but it was for the purpose of knocking up a
French corps on the left bank of the Rio Tinto, by
which Bantarrzaos's movements were a good deal
constrained. - The enterprize was crowned with com.
plete success. The enemy, amounting to between
Ave and six hundred infantry and cavalry, were totally
defeated and dispersed.
The acccount of SOULT'S carps having halted on its
march to Andalusia appears to have been erroneous-
Five thousand infantry and two thousand cavalry
part of that corps, entered Seville on the 19th of
March. The French have found it necessary to con-
centrate their forces in Andalusia.
• An. Araholt mail arrived yesterday. The negecia-
tiOns iktieen the Portrz and Russia have come to
nothing, Hostilities have recommenced, and, as it
appears, greatly to the advantage of the latter. The
army of the Grand Vizier having made a general
movement towards Philippopoli, the advanced guard.
consisting of from thirteen to twenty thousand men,
was attacked by the Russians, and defeated with con-
siderable loss. The Turks are stated to have fought
with great bravery, although they were far from being
the Ate of their army, being chiefly Asiatic troops.
The battle led to no result of moment. Its conse-
quences are no farther important than that they have
enabled the Russians to open the campaign with great
éclat.
From Sweden we hear, that the Xing is getting bet-
ter; that BERNADOTTE is about to make a tour of his
future dominioni ; and that the relationsbetween tbeies
and a neighbouring Government (without stating
whether it is that of Russia or Denmark) are not of the
most friendly nature.

By a vessel arrived at Liverpool, we have received
Philadelphia Papers to the 17th ult. and by a vessel
arrived in the Downs, we have got New York
Papers to the same date. Their contents, now that
Congress has risen, are of little importance. The
Non-Intercourse Act, it appears, is to be inforced to
the very letter. A vessel which arrived at Norfolk
from Liverpool, on the 24th of February, (and which
probably sailed from the latter port before she could
lascertain whether our Orders in Council were or were
not rescinded on the 2d of that month) was seized
under the President's proclamation. Some expect,.
tions were entertained that an Extraordinary Session
lof Congress would be held about the middle of May.
The American Government has begun to organise,
according to ittponstitution, that part of the Floridan
belonging to Spain, of which it has taken forcible
and illegal possession. The Spaniards chew no dis-
position to acquiesce in this robbery, as they still keep
possession of That important post, Fort Mobile.
It is reported in America that Mr. Salim is about
to vacate his office as Secretary of State, in order to
proceed to Petersburgh as American Minister, in the
room of Mr. Quotcx Anew. General Mvxnor, the
present Governor of Virginia, is named as the nc...•
Secretary of State.

Meeting as Delegates to present an Address to his
Royal Highness the PRINCE REGENT ; together with
a Petition for the removal of his Grace the Duke of
RICHMOND and Mr. W. W. PoLE from their official
situations in Ireland. Some declined the honour on the
ground of ill health and of business ; seven only declined
in consequence of disapproving o the Petition for
removal, and three of.those differed with the Aggre-
gate Meeting; more as to the expediency and time.
There were two letters from the young Lord KILLFEN,
both of which were much applauded. A letter from
Lord FFRENCH was also read, accompanied with re-
peated marks of approbation.

Fifty more seamen have been brought to Portsmouth,

the island, to be tried for the same offence.
The following extraordinary article was published
in The St. Thomas's Advertiser of the Ilth of February :
" On the arrival of one of the Cork convey at Martinico, the
Muter of the vessel made oath with his crew, before his Excel-
lency General BRODERICK, that the fleet, of which he was one,
had been met with by a squadron of French ships, consisting of.
eight sail of the line and eight frigates, which had captured a
great part of the convoy before he made his escape. By an arrival
at Grenada of one of the same fleet, a corresponding account has
been received."
We learn by the Naiad, which left Jamaica on the sth ult. tha
