THE NATIONAL REG-IMO. . x 25 LETTER FROM CHAMPAGNY, MINISTER OF STATE TO DONA.- TAItTE, DATED PARIS ) DEC. 7. 66 Throughwli all the Austrian dominions the utmost activity continues to tie t.isplayed, with regard to the new organization of the militia, which seems to excite strong apprehensions in the breast of the King of Saxony and Duke of Warsaw. in Munich es; uneasiness is entertained on this subject, because no move ments are observable among the Austrian troops: Ali Pacha is daily drawing more closely the ties of friendship with the English, but being apprehensive of some rigorous measures on the part of the Turkish Government, he has sent his treasure to a place of safety. Count Romanzoff has dispatched a Courier to Moldavia. I have availed myself of this opportunity to send some Bulletins to Constantinople, and have also ordered them to be distributed on the road thither. The Ottoman Ambassador has postponed dispatching a Courier to Constantinople, until intelligence shall have been received of your Majesty's arrival in Madrid." ANOTHER LETTER FROM THE MINISTER OF POLICE TO BON AFARTE, DATED PARIS, DEC. 8, 1808. - - - - - " In obedience to your Majesty's orders, I have caused the articles relative to Sicily to he successively inserted in the Dutch and German Gazettes, which will he repeated in the French Papers ; but 1 have given the most positive orders that no particulars of that expedition shall he mentioned, lest they should rouse the enemy's attention. I inform your Majesty that The Frankfurt Gazcileer seem: , to be much disaffected, since it became necessary to adopt strong measures in order to compel him to insert the article touching Spain. Nor is the city better disposed ; the Anglomany which prevails in Frankfort is won derful. It is from thence that bad news are spread all along the left banks of the Rhine." ---- - A Letter from the French Ambassador in Munich, M. Otto, to the French Minister of Stale, 26th of November, ISOB, contains the following passages: '• The Austrians continue to make entrenchments in Carinthea a great number of peasant 4 are employed in the defiles of Dufen stein, Itastadt, Muntendorf, anti Lueg. We are here convinced, that the Court of V ieana intemls to carry the plan of the new organization of the militia into execution to its full ex:._lll, and io derive greiaer ad vantago from this measure, than were at first .expected. Bat a want of principle seems still to prevail, and the armies are encreased at the e x pence of agriculture and in dustry. The emissaries who have been sent into different parts of Austria report, that no movements of any consequence have hitherto taken place among the troops. " The Marquis of Campo Chiaro is waiting here for fresh .orders, and it appears that the accession of his Majesty King Joachim to the throne of Naples, has been made known to the 'Court of Vienna much later than had been supposed, for which .reason the Above Minister cannot proceed to that capital, until the Court has returned an answer." Letters from Cadiz slate, that the Junta at Seville had sent an Envoy to the King of Morocco, to procure a supply of horses, find that the request was to 1w complied with, on condition .that the Spanish Government would agree to evacuate and demolish all the forts held by their troops in Africa. All property belouging to the natives of counties under the dominion of France hail been con :.sated, by order of the Junta. With respect to the defence of Cadiz, should the attack of the enemy take place, strong hopes are entertained that it would call forth the most ardent loyalty. About a mile and a half' beyond the city, near the narrowest part of the Peninsula on which it stands , a fort was constructing swhich will completely con - unpaid the only approach to the place by land; and this fort will be additionally strength .eited by a ditch, uniting the sea without to the harbour with in, by cutting the 4sle of Leon in two. The works for thi s purpose were superintended by Colonel Hollowell, of [been_ gineers, lately arrived Trom Gibraltar. It, was, however, ap prehended, that the greatest difficulty would arise from the 'want of water. Cadiz is of destitute of water, ex cept what is caught in tanks on the tops or the houses ; 4nd the deficiency - is usually s from Port St. Mary, on the main land, north-east of the bay ; and though there are no heights that overlook the city, if the French obtain possession of the northern shores of the bay, which all the ttn. strong works of Cadiz cannot prevent, they will, it is feared, not only cut off the supply of water from Port St. Mary, but greatly annoy all shipping entering the har bour, if not totally obstruct the passage. An alarming dissatisfaction unfortunately prevails in Jamaica. We are sorry to say it is universal ; and the freeholders and inhabitants . of almost every parish, which had been convened on the occasion, have sanctioned the proceedings of the House of Assembly. The tone of their resolutions is spirited and firm. They claim for their re presentatives the full exercise of the rights possessed by the British House of Commons, and . seem determined to main tain them. Four more American Embargo-breakers are arrived at Liverpool. Their names, as stated at Lloyd's, are the Rover, Ambition, Rolla, and Carmelite. They arc said to have sailed from New Jersey, but they are in reality from New York, and constitute only a part of the number that effected their escape from that port, and are already known to have reached British ports. They are freighted with a considerable quantity of cotton, and their arrival has had the effect of materially lowering the price of that article, both in the London and Liverpool markets. The samples which, but a short time before, were sold at 3c. 3d. have fallen to 2s. 6d. Another sort, called Bouds, which had been at 2s. Sd. and 2s. 6d. did not fetch at Liverpool 2s-. These vessels bring no other intelligence than the deter mination of the Merchants of New England to refuse sub mission to the Non-Intercourse Bill. This determination had, according to our Liverpool letters, been openly ex pressed, at the risk of absolute separation from the Union, sooner than relinquish their commercial pursuits. A curi ous fact has come within our knowledge, which proves at least that this Embargo-breaking can have been no very sudden or unpremeditated act : viz. these four vessels, as well as others yet to come, were all insured at Lloyd's by a leilding American house in the city. The following Letter refers to the Expedition now fitting out at Cork : " CORK , Eras. 10.---On Thursday se'nnight, the wind having shifted to the Eastward, orders were issued for the immediate re-embarkation of such of the troops, recently returned front Spain. as were in a condition for duty. Such was the activity used on the occasion, that by noon a considerable part of them had embarked ; the wind, however, then freshened to such a de gree as to suspend the service, and at five o'clock had increased to a heavy gale. Ceuta is supposed to be the place of their des tination.' We are authorised to state that the Hope Insurance Com pany has no connection whatever with the intended Cattle . Life Insurance Company. Monday, a few minutes before one o'clock, his Majesty atrivel at the Queen's Palace, from Windsor. His Majesty travelled by Egham, and the same road which he took last week, the regular roads being still not passable. About half-past two o'clock. his Majesty held a private' Levee, which was attended by the Great Officers of State, the Ministers, &e. Very few presentations took place. His Majesty held a Privy Council, at which the Recorder of London attended, and made his Report of the Cons icts capitally convicted at the last Sessions in the Old ; when we understand the man from Birmingham, for uttering forged Bank notes, and the woman for forging seamen'h certificates of births, wills, &c. were ordered for execution next Wedoe,ilay. Soon after six o'clock, his Majesty set off on his return to IVindsor.
