been landed, and it is said. to reinforce
those on the island Of Leon, and support an
attack on the French, who it IS expected
will be surprised.
think it Improbable we shall have some
warm work before great while, but for
the security OF Cadiz, there is no SOFT of
apprehension. Last evening" grand illu.
mlnation was observed at port St. Mary's.
and at ds O'Clock this day, a general salute
was fred from the batteries of the French,
said to be for Napoleon's birth day. by O.
theirs supposed to be for some success of
theirs in Portugal, as it is expected the
French are On the point of again entering
Lisbon, & Kits admitted here on all hands
thatit canaot continue long to resist the
French.
There are about four deckers, six Jas
and IL frigates at present here, besides a
number OF smaller armed vessels, of the 8
combined powers; they make great deal
OF noise, but without any other visible ef-
feet.
Cadlz IS at present well supplied with
provisions--Aour 10 dolarspe barrel; beef
IL; pork 16; corn Is per bushel; bis
cult 10 dolls. SO that tho the place IS be-
sieged it is not blockaded. Exchange is
favorable, being at IS, the par is 40 1-2
sterling fer the current dollar of Cadiz,
which is equal to Sd of the hard dollar.
Tariffa, on the Mediterranean, is occu-
pied by the British; Algesiras is re.oceu-
pied by the Spaniards, the French having
, levied con,ribuion On the place anil emp
tied all the Golfers they could find, left it,
bu, can enter it again whenever they please,
as there are no preparations to oppose them.
=. August II.
Instead Of saIying and attacking the
French, the British troops are embarking
from this city to day; they are supposed to
be destined for Lisbon. have seen about
1900 men embark myself, besidela body of
cavalry; but what Ii means know not.
