LATEST FROM EUROPE.


Dublin papers as late as May 4tl, receiv
cd In town Yesterday, bring our London
dates up to April 36th. The intelligence by
these papers is destitute of interest; such as
1t is, however, we have extracted.
News from Spain, in Ireland, is as late
as the 9TH April; we have had direct Ca
dlz accounts to the 18TH and dates from
81. Sebastans, as late as the 18th of tn At
month
No mention whatever relative to Ameri-
can affairs with England, was made in tn e
English papers bat all accounts concurred
IN the increasing dangers of trade upon the
Continent.
DUBLIN, May s.
Rotterdam is crowded with French SOL
diers, agents and Custom House Officers, all
sednlOusy employed in suppressing COM
merce, in which they are unfortunately but
too successful. The nature of the business,
arising from the peculiar circumstances in
which the Dutch traders were placed, had
compelled them to have recourse to an ex
traoI binary methcd for conducting it. 1t
was the custom OF their agents to stipuate,
tor Certain percentage, to deliver the mer-
chandize contrac ed for, free of all risk, at
the London Custom house. The remunera
ton was lately Is per cent but in the pre-
sent state of thi':gs, so per cent. would not
compensate the agents, for the risk they
would have to encounter.
We stated several DAYS ago, that Mr.,
YoRKE was to go to the Admiralty, and
Lord MULGRAvE to the idnance-the
latter appointment has taken place and the
commission to the former effect is In pro-
gross.
May I'VE have received the London
Papers Of Monday. There is not, with the
exception of the propagation Of the Preach
Legislative Body, any intelligence of moment
in those papers. 1t is worthy observation,
that although there is a solitary collateral
fling against the " eternal enemies of the
Continent" the speech of the Senator Reg
naut, does not Contain the customary attack
upon the people and government of England
This may be considered by many sauguinc
persons as indicative of the return of u pa,
cihc disposition on the part Of Napoleon
The speech expatiates with great and par
donable cumplaceDcy ON the nuptials of the
Ernpcror and the Archduchess of Austria
There is no doubt that this marriage was
one OF the first strokes of policy Napoleon
ever exhibited. ii secures, as his orators
say, the peace Of the Continent aud when
the Peninsula shall have been subdued, it
will leave him at liberty to prosecute mar
time war, OF to turn the arms of the French
People, as well IS of his confederate legion
aries, to the Ottoman Empire. The latter
is mentioned slightly but it may be for the
purpose Of concealiug his designs. Indeed
we think that a a Turkish war is by no
means SO remote as may be generally ina
gined.
The last accounts from Lisbon and Spain
describe the French as suffering under
great want Of provisions. One Of these let
ters says, " the French are retreaiing from
the Portuguese frontier in want OF every
thing" Inc same want is feit in Spain, <
the next accounts will probably bring US intel
ligence Of their having quilted the Vicinity Of
C;diz
Tha DOke of Belluno (Victoi) is stated to
have died at Seville, On the 4.h of April, in
consequence Of wound inllictcd by a cannon
shu5, while reconnoitcring the Spanish works
before Cadiz.
The loowingi is an extract Of letter from
Paris received yesterday:
PANS, April II.
Sirce the last wrote ou, nothing at
all new has transpired relative to any
part Of &c confscated American property.
