LONDON, Sett. IS.

Official accounts have been received of
the capture Of Junot's army ard the Rus
sian feet at Lisbon. TIE whole number &C
vessels taken, including some French fri
gates, is 27. The soldiers, it is said, are
to be returned to France, without siipula-
ton that they shall not serve AGAIN. The
Russian sailors to be sent home-and their
ships 10 be restored SIX months after peace.
The terms with the feet may arise from a
wish to coneillate the Russians. The con-
ditions however with them and the French
are not relished in London.
Il is reported that sir Hugh Dairy mple is
to be recalled, and that fast sailing vess ell
is TO be dispatched, TO prevent the execution
of the convention, but this is probably
thrown out to reconcile the public to the
result.
Sir A. Wellesley is mentioned as being
extremely dissatisfied with the proceedings
which have taken place in Portugal, since
he was superseded in the command, and it
has been said even that he was about to re-
turn home in disgust.
