, FROM THE FRENCH PAPERS.

PARIS, SEPTEMBER 11.
Stlag OF ALAI Eitm.—The Prince of Essling caused
the trenches to be opened before Almeida on the night
of the 15th of August ; a false attack directed against
the north of the town had drawn the attention of the
besieged to that -quarter. Two thousand workmen
took advantage of :that circumstance to dig the first
parallel to a depth of three feet, along a line of more
than 500 toist's, in spite of the difficulties arising from
the rocky nature of the 'ground, and the necessity of
every instant covering themselves by gabions.
Between the ISth and the 19th, though the fire of
elle enemy was very brisk, and the obstacles which
the rocks presented to the enlargement of the trenches
.Appearydinsurmountahle, the parallel was finished,
end the rocks bloWn up by the Petard.
. Between the 20th and the
.25th eleven batteries
mere erected. During the night of" the 24th, the se-.
cond parallel was opened in the rock, at less than
• 130 tuises from the place. The terrible fire of the
fortress did not permit us to maintain it during
..the day ; but on the following night the miners fi-
nished deepening and enlarging the trenches with the
Petard. The mounting and supplying of the batteries
.:were alp° Anished the same night.
On the 26th, at five in the morning, eleven batte-
*es, mounted with 6L pieces of cannon, opened their
fire on the fortress, which returned it with 'vigour ;
but at four in the afternoon their fire slackened : at

,xeven, one of our bombs exploded the principal pow.
.der magazine of the place; the explosion was terri-
ble. At the departure of the courier, the fire of our
batteries was redoubled with activity. .

LOSS OF THE SATELLITE.

It is with sincere regret we state the melancholy
loss of his Majesty's sloop of war the SATELLITB, of
16 guns, commanded by the Hon. WILLOUGHBY
BERM, with all the crew. She sailed from Spithead
on Monday the 17th instant, to join the ships that
were cruizing off La Hogue. On the Wednesday
following, at six o'clock in the evening, she was in
company with the VAUTOUR, Captain 1./mums. It
was then blowing very hard ; and, in the course of
the night, the gale increased excessively, blowing in
the most tempestuous squalls. In one of those sudden
gusts (which have been experienced both at •ea and
on shore, in a most extraordinary degree this winter),
she, it is supposed, upset, and every soul on board
perished 1 The next morning her boats, some spars,
&c. which were upon her deck, were picked up by
the VAUTOUR ; but no other vestige of her has ever
been seen. The following'Officers were on board her
on the 30th ult. when she was last mustered :
Captain Willoughby Bettie, Lieutenant R. S. Farquharson,
Lieutenant Thomas Nicholas; Richard Cornby, Surgeon ; James
Sampson, Purser ; John Pearse, Master; R. S. Kempeter, Mas-
ter's Mate; John Henderson, Carpenter; Benjamin Brown
Gunner; George Prout, Boatswain; George Campbell, Clerk
A. G. Babington and Wm. Brooke, Midshipmen.
The Hon. Captain BERM: was the son of the late,
and brother to the present Earl of ABINGDON. He
married Miss FISH En, late of the Plymouth Theatre;
and what increases the distressing event of his death
is, that Mrs. BEnTIE (now in Portsmouth) expects
daily to be confiued.—Captain 13E1012 was in •his
29th year.

Lieutenant J. PRIEST, an old and deserving officer,
late of the SALVADOR DOL.MUNDO, is appointed Agent
fur the French prisoners, at the new dei,4t iu Scoaand.

ST. BARTHOLOMEW, OCTOBER St
The disturbance which broke out here was occa-
sioned by his Excellency the Commander in Chief
having filled up the vacancy in a company of mili-
tia, without consulting the non-commissioned officers
and privates, who chimed the nomination as their
right, and refused to receive the new Captain. After
a delay of two days, a peremptory order was issued
for disarming the two militia companies, and the mi-
litia of the interior was directed to repair to the envi.
rons of the town with field-pieces, &c. Combined with
these intended coercive measures, the Governor and his
Major let drop some threateningexpressions, which de-
cided the militia companies as to the conduct they
,should pursue.
At the moment of filing their arms, the Major made
signals for an alarm to be fired from the main fort ;
in consequence he was put under arrest ; and it ap-
pearing upon an interview with the Governor, that
his confidence had been abused, it was thought ne-
cessary, for the tranquillity of the colony, to s,:nd the
Major away, and all resumed their obedience to the
Governor's authority.

•
A circular letter has made its appearance, addressed
by Baron Wetterstedt, Swedish .Anti. Chancellor to
the Swedish Ministers at Foreign Courts, stating the
reasons which have compelled his Swedish Majesty
to declare war against Great Britain. The leading
cause assigned is, his Majesty's wish to convince the
Emperor of the French, and the public at large, that
the reports industriously circulated, of a secret under.
standing subsisting between the Swedish and British
Governments, tending to favour the trade in British
manufactures and colonial produce, were altogether
destitute of foundation.

STOCKHOLM, DECEMBER 11.

For several days past reports have been in circula-

power, in certain propositions made lately to our Go-
vernment ; and it has Leen said, that our present
friendly relations with that power were likely to cease,
unless those propositions were agreed to in toto.—
However respectable the quarter may be from whence
the reports alluded to have proceeded, there is.no rea-
son to suppose that any further measures connected
with the said propositions will be adopted, previous to
the arrival of a Courier shortly expected from Paris.

LISBON, DEC. 14,

According to several letters from respectable
source, our advanced guards at Alobaga have had
an encounter with the French, who were carrying off
a number of cattle. They killed five, made five pri.
soma, and took from them the cattle, though they
had the misfortune to have an officer mortally woun-
ded, because he was so weak as to place confidence in
the enemy who had promised to surrender, but after-
wards fired upon him.
Many persons have lately arrived from Thomar and
Torres Novas, from whom we learn that the extortions
of the French have increased to an intolerable degree.
They bring neither military chests, shoes nor baggage:
every thing must be furnizhed by the peasants, all
whose property, according to their military creed, be-
long to them. At Torres Novas they first began by
asking cloaks, shoes, and other necessaries, but soon
proceeded to demand 40,000 era zadoes. The inhabi-
tants finding they could not satisfy such a requisition,
were obliged to fly. They did not, however, fly to
Lisbon, but, uniting in small parties, have destroyed
many of the French.

Dac. N.—Matters remain much in the same state
as when the last packet sailed. Massena appears to
be strengthening himself at Santarem. Our army is
in the same position in his front—General Hill is on
the left bank of the Tagus, and the several corps of
irregulars, which are in the rear of the enemy, are
daily gaining strength. We are assured there are
full 15,000 men at Coimbra. The enemy made an
attack a few days ago on the Isle of Leon, but were
repulsed with great loss ; we also lost some men and
officers, but no doubt -the particulars have already
reached you from C icliz.
. _ _ _ _ _

Major Fenwick: of the Buffs, was killed this week
in attacking about 100 French with only 30 Portu-
guese chasseurs ; he beat the enemy and took from
them a considerable convoy of cattle, but the Major
was unfortunately mortally wounded and seven men
killed.
PRIVATE LETTER.—CORUNNA, DECEMBER 10.
Spain appears one entire Place d'armes. Wherever
there are French, there are Spaniards to combat them.
The Castilles are covered with Guerrillas, who attack
the enemy at every point A few days ago they took
a convoy with 6000 muskets, and 6000 uniforms, and
various other articles, which were on their way from
France ;o the troops in the Asturias. In the environs,
of Madrid, there is a division of more than eight thou-
sand men, which makes even Joseph himself tremble
on his usurped throne. All the Kingdom of Gallicia
has now a military organization. The people exercise
on the holidays. If we can collect funds, there will'
be in this Province an army of 30,000 men by the
spring, and that army would now exist, if we had had
money to procure arms and clothing. I repeat to.
you, that the French will never conquer this country.

SMYRNA, JULY 27.
In the Asiatic and European Turkey the enthu-
iasm for the war is without.example. The rich peo-
ple in the country send more recruits to the Pashas of
the prsiinces than they are bound to furnish ; many
of them take the field in person ; Cypria, Candia, and
all the Islands of the Archipelago, have sent nume-
:ons contingents to Constantinople. The resolution
,Of the Grand Sultan to-take • the field has doubtless
contributed-much to this enthusiftsm. They expect
in Constantinople a fine corps of Kunclukes from
Egypt, Which the. Beys have furnished. There are
many British naval officers in the Turkish fleet in, the
Black Sea.

CONSTANTINOPLE, AUGUST 10.
Before the horse-tails were raised in front of the
Seraglio by the Caimakan and the Mufti, as a signal
that the Grand Seignior would certainly leave the
capital, and repair in person to the army, the astro-
logers, according to ancient custom, were consulted,
to point out 'a fortunate day for his departure. The
Palaces of Dand, Bauln, and another at Adrianople,
have been a long time prepared for the reception of
the Grand Seignior ; and his numerous retinue is
preparing to accompany him to Indand Baschiz.—
The Janissaries are collected, and, after the arrival of
the Grand Seignior, will proceed to Adrianople,
whither the Grand Seignior will also. A corps of
12,000 men, who were encamped at that city, have
marched to Schumla, and 1000 men, fresh troops, ,
are expected. The Turkish Empire in no previous
war took such vigorous measures as in the present,
which has, been declared a war of religion. The ar-
dour of the people is truly extraordinary. An accu-
rate estimate of the strength has not been made pub-
BC; bnt the camp at Schumla alone, including the
new reinforcements, consists of 120,000 men, with-
out reckoning the tamps at Adrianople and in other
places.

TO 'THE PROPRIZTORS OP EAST INDIA STOCK.
L4DIES AND GENTL/MEN,
HAVI used my utmost endeavours to pay my
personal respects to the Proprietors, on the present vacancy in
the Direction.' Although numerous friends are willing to leave
heir distant residences Li the purpose of attending the ballot,
stilt, without a certain prospect of success, it is incumbent on
me, from the respect I owe to the Proprietors at Lege, to bear in
mind the extreme inconvenience to which they would be sub-
jected, and the unnecessary trouble I might occasion.
Influenced by these motives, and in deference to the opinion of
those who have so zealously supported me, that I am scarcely
warranted in contending a point, which, if doubtful on the pre-
sent, they consider as secured to me on the next vacancy, I have
determined to relinquish the present contest—a step, which,
under these circumstances, I trust you will not disapprove.
I beg to return my warmest thanks to my Friends for their
ready assistance on this occasion, and most respectfully acknow-
ledge the kind r,ception I hare experienced front those Prop) ie.
tors who are engaged on the present, but have assured me of their
support on the next vacancy.
I remain, with great respect, Ladies and Gentlemen,

corn during the different periods when distillation
from grain was suspended. To that order, a return •
was,made more in the nature of an epigram than the
account that was due to the dignity of a House Of
Parliament. That Gentleman stated, that he could
not give any such return, as he did not know the pe-
riods when distillation from grain was prohibited.—
As an Officer of Government, it was his duty to know
what the law of the country had enforced. His Lord-
ship suppo ;ed that the House would see the necessity
of having this return amended.
Earl BATHURST stated, that he did not see the
return until he was on his w.iy to the. House that day.
He then ft:lt that it was kn improper one, and gave
instructions that it should be forthwith amended.

EVENING ADDRESiS TO THE CURLEW.
. sird Of doe rock ! thy melarichoir wall .

. .
That mournful echoes round the seeehestaberet,
Thai oft repeated in the chil!y gale,
Blends with -thole sounds the rippling current's roar!
Sill' let me hear thee, musing as I stray,
Heedless what track my pensive steps explore,
While thwvall beacon gleams with Ilnering day,
Ere the far distant sail is seen-no more !
Thy mournful plaint, which mingles with the Hest,
Thy dun-grey plotnage circling o'er my head,
Renews the vision of a blip long past,
Recalls an hour of joy for ever fled.
Oh ! no, not fled, nor Fate itself destroys,
The treasur'd bliss still blooming fresh and nese,
s. Nor Hope, nor yet Possession, give the joys
That Memory's magic can at will retew.
Oft when my eye pursues thy vent'rour Sight,"
Along the billowy Ocean's heaving breast, •
Or sees thy pinion dare the diuy height,
And on the rainbow's crescent seem to rest;
I ask what instinct prompts, what motives sway,
Why o'er the cliffs thou wheerbt in airy ring;
Does in its deep recess thy partner stay,
Shielding thy nurslings with his downy wing
Bird of the roe: ! the sun forsakes the skies;
, Speed, speed thy flight ere fades the quiv'thy sty I
Dim o'er the waves the shadowy mists arise,
. Yet Love and Nature shall direct thy way;
• While I, far distant from my native home,
Alive alone to Grief's Imp.rious power,
Bad on the sea-wash'd shore delight to roam,
Still woo in solitude the twilight hour!

Her Majesty the late Queen of Sweden passed the
day before yesterday through this place, on her way
to Weimar. By the arrangements made for this jour-

to return to the South of Germany. In Weimar the
Queen intends to wait for her royal consort, who is
still in Pretsch, a small place between Leipsic and
Dresden, where he finally stops, until the return of a.
courier whom he has sent to Sweden. •
