add, that ihitehulu garrisuu of Almeida, including
both the regulars and the militia, which had pre-
, •
viously entere.: the' French Service, had taken an
opportunity while the French were thus occupied,
et passing over to the British army. The fetters
mention, that the positions now occupied by the
British army, arc stronger than those of its tomer
situation.

Majesty has received on this subject, have, k is
*4l, determined our august Sovereign.to proceed to
Pest, to deliberate with an assembly of Magnates of
the first class, of some Prelates, and Deputies of thol
principal cities, won the means of procuring the
co-operation of Hungary iu the execution of the
new plan of finance. It Is probable that this as.
sembly will decide, whether it be necessary to con.
yoke an extraordinary Diet, or sufficient to adopt
merely provisional measures relative to the new im.
petitions, to be afterwards submitted to the sanction
of the States. It Is beheved that this last Course
will be adopted, and that the opening of the ordi.
navy Diet will take place as early as the beginning of
neat January.
Beaux, Seer. 6.—The following. hie been pub.
lishcd here :
" His Majesty, being desirous that all the orders which base
for their (Ned the maiorrnance al the Caotioental system
should eontinue to be executed with the greatest rigour, bar
resolved, in order to accelerate the process of coati-cation com-
menced against all those who possess or import Colonial mer-
chatsdise, to appoint a Tribunal of Commerce, which shill pro-,
trounce exclusively and detinirittelfon matter* connected with
this hied sr centocation. This Tribunal shall sit at Berlin, rind
shall lake lafermatioes at the dilfereut places, by means of
Boinmissioners appointed fur that purpose.
" Hie Majesty, by this inesoure, wishes to conciliate the in-
terests of the State, with that ju.tice obicb indiiilaals have a
r.,:ht to cxpect."
" Berlin, August 16,1610."
NAPLES, SEPT. 5.—A Decree, dated the Royal
Camp,' at Piale, Await t 7, bears that from that
date the voluntary enrolments are suppreeted, and
that all the corps of the army shall he completed by
the mode of conscription. The Royal Gender.
aerie, the Municipal Guard of Naples, and the
Royal Corsican Regiment, are excepted from this
arrangement.
CookitiAcittie, Seer. 2.—The price of Colonial
produce, as might have been expected, has risen in
consequence of the late order of his Majesty with
regard to their importation. Tobacco has also
risen to an excessive pried, front the cessation of our.
commerce.
Beaus, SEPT. 2.—Lady Bathurst, after long
enquiries with regard to the fate of her husband,
who, as it known, disappeared near Perleberg,
appears to be convinced that Mr. Bathurst put a
period to his bwn life. Even on setting out from
Vienna, he laboured under a violent attack of the
spleen ; and letters from him of a later date, which
have been found, show, that this mental detango..
stunt was every day increasing. Lady Bathurst re.
turns to England by Fiance.
litoesr, Atm. 20.—According to the
li
telligence from Moldavia, the Imperial
Commissary, sent to that province, has relinquish.
ml the project of organising that country as well as
'Wallachia on the same footing as the Russian Em.
pire. All the Russian troops, which remained in
the southern provinces of the Russian Empire,
have received (seders to proceed by forced marches,
Wily to the frontiers of Persia, and partly to the.
Danube. They are relieved by other troops coin;

calved from some Greek coranmeshill blouses, the
Grand Seignior has set net from Cossiantieople
at the head'of a large army, the advanced . paid.
of which has already formed a junction with the
army of the Grand Vizier. A great battle is ex.-
pected, which probably will decide the issue of this
campaign.
Pm snow,., Ago. 17.... The Remixes have made
themselves masters of the city of Rudschuek, but
they have sneered much from the garrison,
has retired into the citadel, and probably will not
surrender till the Grand Vizier has fought a bat..
tie. He is strongly.entrenched with his army be.
fere Schumla, and every day received fresh reinforce.,

On this intelligence (which, Goo knows, is me.
Isacholy enough) The Morning Post gravely re.
marks, that the present retreat of Lord WELLING.
TON is " a retrograde movement of precaution, not
" by any means of compulsion." And another
Ministerial Paper gives the intelligence, by way of
confounaing•the enemies of this country, and cheer..
ing up its friends! We wish we could give any real
consolation to the real friends of this unfortunate
country on this subject ; but it is in vain that we look
for such. The Morning Post goes on to toll us...that

Morning Post is saying gravely, and meaning that
the thing is really so. The movement (according to
The Pod) ii a retrograde movement of precaution.
No doubt it is. Bet a" 'retrograde movement of
