.--“tilieSub.Prefect Frochet had, on retiring, ap.
! pointed an Administrative Commission, composed
of five Memheis, charged sith performing his fem.
1 tions during his absence. This Commission saw
itself obliged, by the dismission given it by the Mayor
of Oldenbuigh, to establish in its place a Communal
Commission, composed of five members of the an.
• cient Magistracy of the town ; at the same time it
sent circulars into the province, by which it main-
hiked' the Mayors of the rural Communes in their
i • :- ., . freirticitis„ Under the name of Communal Commis-
sioners. -It charged them expressly to maintain
tranquillity and good order in their districts and to
i form twit, for this purpose, a guard composed of
landholders. This measure, dictated by the most
wise local circumstauces, was condemned as a crime
hi a letter written by Prefect Count Urberg; and as
soon'al the. French re-appeared in that country, the
• five Membeis of that Commission were arrested and
conducted 'to Bremen. The Military. Commission,
asseddiled by General Vandamme, stated, among
the principal charges of accusation against the Corn.
munal Commission, it having spoken in its circular,
of troops which approached, without having specie
' tied that it by that meant it expected French troops.;
and its furring signed, lit quality of an Administra.
live Commission, .without having declared that il
was a French Commission established by the Sob:
Prefect. On those charges an imprisonment of site,
MO/albs was adjuged against the Frye Members. 41,0

i that' dignity which is the teselt.of a conscience witli.•

After the adoption of these resolves,
Mr. CLAY (Speaker) rose and adverted to that
part of the*Message which alludes to the inhumanity •
of the enemy, expressed 'hia abhorrence of the enorw
mities committed by them, as well in the massacre
of our citizens on the Western frontier, es the con-
flagration of our little towns on the maritime border.
The latter outrage had not been pretended to be de-
nied, but had been apologised for (by whom he did
not say) on the pretence that our people had first
fired on one of their flags. Although be believed the
allegation false, he was glad that It was thought ne-
cessary to make an apology for it. The facts, how%
ever, in botlicases, ought to be enquired into and
distinctly ascertained. If found to be as public re•
port had stated them, they called for the indignation
of •all Christendom, and they ought to bE embodied
in an authentic document which might perpetuate
them on the page of history. These were substan-
tially the remarks, as written from memory, with
which Mr. Ctay prefaced the following Resolution:
Resolved, Tim so mach of the President's Speech as re.
Imes iota. spirit and manner in wlAch the war has been waged
by the ex.iiy, be referred to a Select gommittee.

The resolution was adopted without opposition or
division. . . 6

• • The Committee then rose, and the severe! matt-
.ffetts adopted in Committee Of the whole were agieskd
to by the house. .
After these resolutions were agreed to,
_ Mr. Guolvsmoa moved to re-consider the resolu-
tion moved in Committee by the Speaker, fur thw
purpose of amending it. Quoting the Message 43f
the President, he said that the barbarity of the
;416.115y was therein contrasted with *the*•humanity
ithielit had cheracteiised the war on our part. He
"labia to, see the evidence on this head also, al
.therifere was desirous of amentling the resolution if , .f*.
reconsidered, by adding, after the words " ky the
enemy," the words " atid by this nation."
Mr. Desna suggested the propriety of -recommit.
tins the subject to the Committee of the whale on

solve (Mr. Speaker Cloy) might hate an opportunity

of speaking to

712114TQUNP/Me 6, tars.

We have this day inserted an account of the pro-
ceedings in the American llouse of Representatives,
orrohat part of the PRESIDENT'S Message which
complains of our inhumanityin the conduct of the
war. The two accusations which have been pre-
ferred against us are-Ist. the employment of the
Indians, who cannot be restrained by the establish:
ed laws of civilised warfare ;---and, 2dly, the con-
flagration of their little towns on the maritime,
border. The House of Representatives has referred
the consideration of these subjects to a Committee.
The facii-Abemselves are,. however, avowed on the
part of our Government and the only question at
issue is, .whether an enemy may be justly attacked
by such means ? ‘Ve trust it will not be contended
by any one in this country, that the laws of justice
and humanity, which we profess to respect in ours
hostilities with every ot':er power, may be juitifiably
relaxed or disregarded in our Americo eirrfare.—
On the contrary, is it not, evident that we ought to
he more scrupulously mindful of those laws, more
delicately cauticus not to infringe them in a
war like the present one with America, than
in any other.--America is inhabited by men
who, in a peculiar sense, we may call our
brethren ; who, by their descent from the same
stock with ourselves, may fairly cluim the ten-
derest treatment that is compatible with the exist-
ing relations between the two countries. America
and England are, besides, naturally the friends of each
Other by the community of their permanent interests,
and are only enemies in consequence of speculative
disagreements and mistaken policy, Causes which, as
they are accidental and capricious in „their nature,
ill be productive only of transient effects.
On the subject of employing savage warriors to
combat against enemies of this description* we have
never disguised our opinion—if we bring men into the
fielcl, whose conduct there we cannot regulate and
controul, we may justly be accused of all the atro-
cities that they commit, and justly be made to feel

the effects of that resentment which their conduct

may excite. Our burning the American towns, and
- spreading terror and distress amongst their peaceable

Inhabitants, is more like the conduct of a nestof pirates
• than of a great and magnanimous nation, and would

find a more suitable place in the annals of Algiers or

Tunis, than in those of Great Britain......Cas thew
bombardments render the Americans less able to
carry on the war? Certainly not. Their resources
depend on the spi►it and industry of a people em..;
ployed on a soil boundless in its estekit and prodato:
Lions. Can they render them less wilting to carry it
on ? The effect is precisely the reverse;' they support
• in America by inspiring the people
;pirit of animosity against England.
*ye, that if Mr. Msolsom himself had
induct of our Government with a'
•hen his own party in America, he
the very conduct we have pursued-7

" In my last I gave you such details of the action
t
near Vittoria, as would enable you to form a' tole- ,
Itable accurate idea of the affair. 'The 'missy has since
1 then been occupied in driving the remains of the
French from this country. After the signal defeat
I. of thai dai, a complete flight took place. Jo-
-1 vErt4 ,viiih tech as could be collected with him, hur-
ried, with all possible expedition, by Roncesvallas
Pass into France. Foy, with one remnant of the fugl-
fives, finding himself unable to reach that pass, took to
1
the mountaius, and is supposed to be endeavouring
ito find his way to Saragossa. Wretched indeed
I must be his situation; without artillery, or baggage,
dreading to approach the roads ; depending for a
precarious subsistence upon such food as he could
find in the villages, most of which would, on his
approach,_be evacuated, and, nothing left but the
bare walls. Harassed by the Guerillas, who would
bang on his front, rear, and flanks, and who would
be a source of perpetual annoyance to him ; suffer-
ing this, how miserable must be his flight, and how
few of his fugitives will remain on hii arrival 'lst Sa-
-1 ragossa: Similarly circumstanced is GAZAN,CLAVSEL,
and another of Joseph's Generals, whe are endea-
routing to reach France by whatever direction they
I can. .

It is utterly impossible to account for Josztut's
total want of intelligence, for otherwise, surely he
would not thus have been so completely routed as
he has been—this cannot be comprehended.. Lord

earnestly remonstrated with JGSEpIi o, the im-
propriety of hazarding a battle-on flie'west aide
of Vittoria. Had he acted on their thrlviee, he.
could have removed all his baggage and artillery to
a position on this side Of that city,. And he
had then forty miles of country, every loch bf Which
could have been defended, and ttihave fUrced which i
would have been impracticable with such artillery Xi

' Spaniards, therefore, to do the rest, and by the reduc--
! tion of the fort reiges,to 'show to the world that they Can
!do something for themselves. How the Spaniards will
act on this, is yet to be seen. From 'the present
ir disposition of the British Army, it would appear
that Sir JOHN MURRAY has no occasion for our ser.
vices in the South ; for the fifth division, General;
OSWALD, is at present in the mountains, near Ta-
1 fella, where it is halted, after having marched
thither, supposed on its route for Saragossa ; but
ab it is understood that Suciivr has united in that
('fortress ' all his disposable force (if, indeed, 'he 1
has not, as some say, fled' to France, lees.
1 ing VILLATTES chief in command), of course,
I nothing farther is to be undertaken by' us.—
; The Spaniards have now their country freed from
the enemy, excepting such as occupy their fortified
1 towns ; and it is to be supposed that they cau,.and
will, so closely invest them, and so vigorously as-
sault them, that they 'till all shortly fall.
Wretched, indeed, as is the situation of Spain, how
much more so must it be when the British are withdrawn
—the great mass of the people are now in arms, either
as Guerilla, or as regular troops. Habits of plun-
der, idleness, and living by force, are now so
familiar to them, that it is out of the question to
suppose they can ever be brought to labour for sup-
port. Hordes of military plundered will"therefore
overrun the country, mut centuries must elapse, be-
fore it can be brought to a state of civilization and
regularity. The evils which Italy suffered, 'under
similar circumstances, in the• sixteenth century,
are about to 'be- repeated here. Certainly the
French irruption bas been productive of' one
I great good—it has drivers from their-ebodes of vice,
indolence, luxury, and hypocrisy, half a million of
priests, who held the country in the most abject ty-
ranny—their reign is over for ever ! nor can the
Roman Catholic faith ever recover from the shock it
has received. . The peried is by -no means remote,.
when Protestantism will rear its tolerant banned
:over the whole 'Continent of Europe; the Tonna of
the Roman Catholic faith are rapidly dying away-
here, and, strange to say, that very Government (of
England) 'which is making such a fuss about Catholic
encroachment, is at Lisbon exerting its whole energy
to support it in all its folly,tind extravagance.
Thus 'ha', iri all appearance, ended the French
invasion of the Peninsula. Whether it will be again t
' attempted, isantithereffair--certainly it cannot for 1
some time to Cothes, with any-chance of success :
and yet BONAPARTS, having incorporated- with his 1
Empire all Spain North.okthe Ebro, makes it pro- I
blematigal, that heWill at ours give up his assumed 1
rights. If parcels, as it is reports's!, effected be-1
1 tween France and the Northern Powers, no doubt
(if Spain is not' incloded) a force will be poured
1 into it too.overwhelming to be resisted. But what 1
will it contantr.:k4 barren, desolate, detroyed MIR..
lir),' incapable of Its own support, unproductive in
~ every way ; a conquest; dpreterea nihil! But Eng- '
land cannot continue the contest here—that is certain;
every thing here shows it. No money, no credit, o,
- thing that couldinduce the supposition of well-Welsh:
ed Coffers at hOme. It is possible that this Army may..
besupported in this part of the country for a short
time, for Naverre, Biscay, and Arragon, are the
! Provinces the least exhausted; but should it be required
that a march Southward is to be undertaken—how
are we to be supported—if CLAUSEL and FOY) con-
trary
to all humaß expectation, have been able to
join AUCIIET with any thing like even half the force
(,they left the field at Vittoria. with, Sir JOHN MGR*
RAY will be obliged to retreat to the sea, and the
whole of the South will be again open to the enemy,
who will have nothing to encounter. -From the South,
therefore, at present, we can have no positive in-
formation. Lord WELLINGTON appears to be in
dealt, for he himself has established his head-quar-
ters at It village nearly centrical between this place,
' the Pyrenees, and -the route for Saragossa. I hope
my . next will ionimenicate a probability of your
shortly seeing me, for I believe there is but one opi-
nien in the whole Army, namely, that we cannot
be supported this wintethitere.

which he was designed, as an indemnity for his losses,
as well as a reward for his services. Unfortunately
for the nomination of Ministers, the Court of 1/1.

The Bishop of LINCOLN is arrived in town, :IA

pointment is settled.
Yesterday the dividend at the rate of seven per
'cent. on the capital invested in Drury-lane 'f:ieatre,
began to be paid at the office of the Theatre. Tile
dividend is calculated on the season from the 10th
October to the Ist August, being 493 days. Anti
there is a very considerable surplus, which is re-
served as a sinking fund for the future security of tho
concern.
Ftax.—Last night, between twelve and one
o'clock, a dreadful and destructive fire broke out
upon the premises of Mr. Gillies, a cheesemouger, •
opposite Whitechapel Church, which at first threaten.
ed destruction to the whole neighbourhood ; so rapid
was its progress, that before it could be stopped
,it
entirely consumed the house where it first begun, and
four others adjoining, • The loss. on this occasion, is
to a very considerable extent. We are happy to hear
that no lives were lost.
FALMOUTH, Ava. 3.—Arrived the Chesterfield
packet; with t Mail from Rio Janeiro, in 49. days.
The Adventure packet had arrived out at Rio, after
a passage of five weeks. A convoy was to leave Rio
for England, a few days after the packet's departure,
under convoy of a sloop of war, and the Dart cut-
ter. On Saturday last, the Cheste'field was chaced
by a schooner, showing 16 guns, who came up with
her, with English colours, and commenced firing
round and grapeshot; when a sharp engagement com-
menced, and after 15 minutes action, the schooner
struck, and proved to be the Gleaner, Captain Lean
(letter of Marque), from, Guernsey for Newfound-
land ; out thirteen days (in ballast). The Chief
Mate of the Gleaner was killed, and the vessel much
cut up in her sails and rigging, but proceeded on
I her voyage. This unfortunate mistake is not further
accounted for. _ _

It is expected that a very large draught of men
will immediately take place from the Foot Guards for
foreign service.
The boxing-match between Ford and Harry
Harmer will take place in a fortnight, on the coast
of Kent.
