LONDON:

TUISDAY, OCTOBER 9; 1810.

We have this day received perthan
.and Dutch
Papers to the 30th of September. From these we
have given two articles of some irnpertance. The
ne.w•geographical division of liollaud is a measure
of considerable consequence; .bet'le have not, at
present, lime to comment on it. :There seems to be
additional reason to suspect Abet' ';the late CROWN
PRINCE of SWEDEN died by 1/06011. The Ilan:-
burgh Correspondenten, of the 25th ult. contains
a Proclamation from the Gita'Ne Sportiott to the
MUFTI, the CAIMACAN PACHA; the !semis, the
grandees of his court, the seven military corps,
to all the Ages, and generally to all the Turkish
officers mid soldiers, &Scribing, in very animated,
terms,the faithlessness and. injastiee of• the aggressi.
0114 RUSSIA. The Monarch calls upon all his
people to give their aid to the public cause; andbe
•
eictites their zeal and ambition. by .two very apt
(potations from .the Koran, of which the follow-
ing is one :
• " Gen say 4 to the Prophet, 6 Assemble the true,
believers for battle round about you, if there arc
.' twenty firm• and brave men, .then they will con-
' quer two hundred; and if there are
.a bundled,
they will beat a thousand.'
'l his is trite feeling, and we have much respect
for the SuLTAN's head and heart. *Be concludes by
Promising his followers the victory, which, he says,
he shall ascribe to the aid of the ALMIGHTY.

. Yesterday were. received Paris papers to the 30th
The Porte has published two more Enlletini;
containing the particulars of a fresh defeat, of the
Russians before itudsehuk, and the expulsion of
Czettivi,Greottut, tho Servian .Chief; front an in-
trenched camp he had formed ii the neighbourhood
of Nitsa. The last of these events..must have an
important influence on the future operations or the
Russian General, who expected much from a diver-
sion on the part of the Servians. . The failure. of
this part of the plan,
.in ad.tition to the war with
Persia, in which the Russians are stated to have ex.
perienced considerable reverses, it' is not improba.
hie may induce •the•Timperor ALEX N D ER. twee-
nounce, for the present, his ambitious projects
against the Porte, and repass the Danube.
The iffoniieur or the 29th is nearly filled with
the text of two Edicts relating to the Austrian Fi.
nances. Whatever may the. merit. or ultimate
success of these plans, they do nut appear to have
created-much confidence in the class of persons
who manage the orditiary moeied transactions of that
'country. • •

the •King el Militia Itg, to put astop to contrabatuOsaide, but
Ititboat much elect. The cordons estilblislieehave not-been
observed, and, indeed, it is the interest of the Dunes to neglect
them. All along the , Baltic the French armies are extending
themselies to annihilate commerce. It is supposed, that before
this time they are at Icpaingsburgh.7, _

Letter! have been received from Gibraltar, to
the 16th ult. which mention-that the French General,
SemArrs.o4l ha.l concentrated all his forces, leaving
only 1200 men in Malaga, for the, purpose of at.
ticking' the Spanish army under BtAitt, who had
posted himself at Lorca.

There can no longer be any doubt of the depar.
lure of the America Minister from Paris. An
American national brig, of 18 guns, has put into•
Falmouth, with General ARMSTRONG and suite on
board. The same vessel also has on board the late
American Consul-General in France. They em.
barked at Cherbourg, and are on their way for New
York. Contrary winds are assigned as the cause
of General ARMSTRONG'S visit to this country, al.
though it is not improbable that some important
cottunaulcations will take place between bins 'and
Mr. PINENEY.

Nothing can exceed the impatience of thermetro..
polis, to receive news of, my Lord WELLINO/011'S
army. Thohazardous situation in which it is placed,
is an object of unfeigned terror to every man who.
reflects upon the state of the country. It is net
Overlooked, nor can it be, that this is the only army
we, in fact, have. A few scattered troops we have,
and a few garriSons, which may be collected, and,'
tiny make another, If this should be lost. But in
this army, is the flower of our
..troops, and nearly
the whole of their strength. And this is placed in a
sltiration of unprecedenterr flinger. We do not:
mean to argue, that an army is not to be placed in
.circumstances of even extreme; clinger, in some,
CIVICS. There may be, a forlorn hope, which a'
whole army, as well as a select division, may Very
properly be pot to enclenter. But this' hazard will
never be embraced, by the , orders of 4 Government
or the choice of a General, without necessity—.
that is to say, without some adequate and tie.:
cessary object to be obtained by victory, or
by • the sacrifice of a &feat. Now, will
,any
one tell. tis., what adequate, what • necessary
object, Lord, WELLINGTON'S victory will Pier.
chase, if he really does gain a victory,? Can he hold.
PorttegAl, when he has' won it ? Can England re-
cruit his force's, when they are wasted by victory,
again to meet the armies France will pour into Per.
tugs! ? Why BotrApAirre himself could not devise
any means more sure to destroy • England, than
that 'of finding a spot for which she Would fight,
till. her military strength was gone! Ile might well
(that is, well for'lamiein give yowa 'victory twice or
thrice in a campaign ; for, at length, he would have
The remnant of your military force to fight, and, if he
lest that *battle might sit still to .see you re-embark
the • shreds of that remnant. This is 'inevitable
when two nations, populated as England and.
France respectively arc, come to contend fur a.spot
or'ground. The weaker nation must retreat *at
length ; and the, stronger has nothingto do but.fight,
and lose a battle every day. All Politicians in this
country see this very plainly ; and all military
men laugh at Ministers', exertions in Portugal,
except. when they recollect the • wasted bleed 'of
their fellow.soldiers,-and weep at the crime and
folly of wantonly iltedding it I—As to the issue
'of this present campaign, we hive so. often cx.
pressed our fears, since we' saw the developing .of
or,y Lord WELLINGTON'S plan, that wi will not
pursue that topic further no*. But we must
observe, that The Timis *and Morning Post,
that have offered us some reasons for hope.
and courage, have •administired neither. rho
very reasons The -Times offers,, throw us into.

to fill up and brighten this scerioluf cntitelition,
tells us, that Mxsantaa's force was said to amount to 1
between 70 and 80,000'; that or
