Since the publication of the above Ga zette, further difpatches have been received from Lord Wellington, dated 6th October. His Lordship's head-quarters were at Alcobaca, about 50 miles from Lisbon, while the French were at Leiria, not 20 miles diftant. It is faid to be the intention of the allies to retreat to Torres Vedras, about 20 miles from Lifbon, where the country is ftrong, and on this account favourable to defenfive operations. Accounts have been received from Lifbon, announcing the difcovery, about the piddle of September, of a confpiracy of fome magnitude at hat place, the objec of which was to overturn the Regency, and to give up the capital to the enemy, The difcovery was made to Lord Welling ton, and the mails and letters were imme diately stopped and opened. In confequence of the information contained in them, 200 perfons of distinction were arrefted, and, it is added, immediately fent off to Africa. They were taken in the houses where they were deliberating: 5000 ftand of arms, belong ing to the confpirators, had also been dif covered, together with an invitation to Maffena, and a proclamation to the people, inviting them to declare in favour of the French. A Portuguese lady, married to a French General, it is faid, made the difcovery; and fo particular was the informa tion received by Lord Wellington, that even the ftreets were named, and the numbers of the houfes occupied by the traitors, and in which arms had been fecretly collected, for the purpofe of arring their adherents for an infurrection in favour of the French, Among the perfons taken up at Lifbon, as concerned in this confpiracy, are the fol lowing: Mr Ratfon, a French merchant, and Member of the Board of Trade. Vandelli, a principal house of trade, and Member of the fame Board. defaulter who lived in his house. Cambiofa, employed formerly by a late Jerome Eftaves and Son, of the Police Office. Dr Almeida, a phyfician in the first prace tice. Brenchamp, a merchant much respected. Pelligrini, a painter not long fince in London, Morelli, Eftaves, Jofeph Saldana, &c. All the accounts from Spain, reprefent the arms of the Patriots as fuccessful in all quarters. A mail from Cadiz has been received, with dispatches from the Honour, able Henry Wellesley, announcing an ac tion in Catalonia, in which the French have been defeated by General O'Donnel, with the lofs of 1800 prifoners, 16 pieces of can non, with all their provifions, ftores, and booty. In this action, General O'Donnel received a wound in the foot, which, it is feared, will render amputation neceffary. The Cortes met on the 28th of Septem ber. The objects to which their attention will be principally directed are 1. The establishment of a permanent Government during the abfence of the King, and his fucceffion to the Crown. 2. The Liberty of the Prefs. FRANCE AND HOLLAND. The fyftem for the exclufion of British commodities, is pursued with the utmost rigour and perfeverance, at every port on the Continent to which the influence of Bonaparte extends. In Holland, informers are entitled to one fifth of the confifcated colonial merchandize, and the country accordingly fwarms with thefe pefts of fociety, who perfecute the merchants with their vifits, in fearch of booty. In Italy, and the Weftphalian territory, the fame fevere measures are adopted; all English manufactures being placed under feal, for the purpofe of being confifcated and fold. Bonaparte has iffed an order for the fequeftration of all Barbary veffels which may arrive at any of the ports of Italy, on the fuppofition that they may have loaded at Malta, and paid the duty of 20 per cent to the English. This order is confidered by many as equivalent to a declaration of war against the Dey of Algiers, and is hailed as the forerunner of the deftruction of all French privateers and cruizers as have taken, or may take, refuge in the ports of Barbary, on their return from their various cruizes in the Mediterranean feas. A private letter from Paris, of the 9th inft. ftates, that the following explanations, on points which had previously been under difcuffion between France and the United States, were contained in a note fent to Ge neral Armstrong, by the Duc du Cadore 1. That all American fhips which fhould arrive in French ports, betwixt this and the Ift of November next, should be comprehended under the Berlin and Milan decrees, and not under any other exifting decree. 2. That the decree of the 23d of March 1810 was revoked, the moment the French Government heard of the fufpenfion of the non-intercourse act. 3. That American fhips, which have not fuffered their flag to be dishonoured by submiffion to the British Orders in Council, fhall, without difficulty, be admitted into the ports of France, with the liberty of clearing out again. 4. That the Emperor will give licences to American fhips, this being the only foreign flag favoured with them. 5. That American fhips, loaded on French to French ports. It is further stated, that the French Government had intimated its intention to reftore the American property fequestered in confequence of the decree of the 23d March 1810, as foon as it had officially been informed, that the veffels and other property detained in America had been reftored to the lawful owners. A copy of a French decree has been received, prohibiting, under pain of fequeftration, all veffels failing with licences, from taking on board paffengers for England, or bringing paffengers from England to France, unless they are in poffeffion of paffports figned by the Emperor. On the 23d ult. Bonaparte iffued a decree for liquidating the arrears due by the Government of Holland for public fervices, and for the intereft of the national debt. The amount of the arrears under the former head is ftated at 24,000,000 f. up to the year 1810, that under the latter at 36,000,000 f. to the prefent month. The claimants under both heads are to receive debentures from a Board of 30 members, created by this decree, under the title of the Syndicate of Holland. The Syndicate are to expedite the levying of the taxes in arrear, and to apply the produce to the difcharge of the bills granted for arrears of public fervice, beginning with the 1ft of rate of 500,000 f. a month. Those granted January 1812, and paying them off at the for the arrears of intereft are to be taken in payment for the purchase of national be fold by auction. domains and tythes, which are ordered to payable by the Dutch Treasury, is to be A further debt of 6,600,000 f. confifting of bills of exchange, difcharged by the Commiffioners for the imburse the fund by the fale of 1,920,000 French Sinking Fund, who are to reweight of cloves, depofited in the Govern ment warehoufes in Holland. The following refolutions have been adopted for effecting the depofits at the Bank of Amfterdam: 1. The debtors of the duties of 40 or 50 per cents. may take the funds which they wifh to depofit in the Bank, for the payment of the faid duties. fhall count it, and depofit it in their Bank, 2. The cashiers fhall receive the money, under their guarantee. 3. The duty for the counting and depofit, is fixed for the whole at one-eighth per for the cashiers, as well as at the Bank, cent. Done at the Palace of Amsterdam, Sept. 30, 1819, SICILY, SICILY. We are informed, by the French papers, that the long-threatened invafion of Sicily was attempted on the night of the 17th September, when a part of the enemy's troops landed at San Stephano. The attempt, however, failed; owing, they fay, to a dead calm coming on, which prevented the flotilla from landing all the troops defined for the fervice. Part of thofe which landed could not be brought back for want of boats, and, of course, fell into our hands. We have, as yet, received no official account of this affair from our Commander in Sicily, Sir John Stuart; but the fact of a part of Murat's forces having effected a landing, does not appear to be difputed; and it is a fact of confiderable importance, not only in the events which will fooner or later flow from it, but from the confequences which refult from its analogies, and from its contradicting all former reafonings and calculations; it being now determined, by actual experience, that, in the viciffitudes of winds and waves, a narrow channel may be croffed against any vigilance, or fuperiority of naval force. SWEDEN. The King of Sweden fet out from Orebro, on his return to Stockholm, on the 3d inftant; on which day a deputation proceeded to Helfinborg, to receive the new Crown Prince, and to congratulate him on his arrival, which was daily expected. The King of Denmark has iffued an order for receiving and entertaining the Prince of Ponte Corvo, wi h the highest refpect and attention, in any of the towns in his dominions, through which his Highness might pafs on his way to Sweden. At the earnest and perfevering entreaty of the agents of Napoleon, the Danes have confented to a French army marching through Zealand to Sweden; who are to be admitted, progreffively, 500 at a time, till the whole force intended fhall have paffed through the island. LUCIEN BONAPARTE. The fingular efcape of Lucien Bonaparte has given rife to a variety of conje&ures in this country. It is faid, that in confequence of a peremptory order from his brother, the Emperor Napoleon, to divorce his prefent wife, and ally himself to a person of higher rank, he formed the refolution of leaving Italy. Other accounts ftate, that his departure was well enough known to Napoleon, who, it is flated, on account of Lucien conftantly refifting his arrange ments, and refufing the Crown of Italy and Spain, both of which he had at differ ent times been offered, fignified to him the neceffity of his quitting the continent of Europe. This illuftrious character embarked, about the beginning of Auguft, with his wife, children, and a retinue of about 40 persons, together with what part of his property he could conveniently remove, on board the American fhip Hercules, at a port in the Roman States, for the purpose, it is faid, of proceeding to America. He was fallen in with, by the Pomon e frigate, off Cagli ari, in Sardinia, which, by the directions of our envoy, Mr Hill, conveyed him to. Malta, where he arrived on the 23d Auguft, and was provided with accommoda tion in Fort Ricafoli, where he was to remain until directions from our Govern ment fhould be received concerning him. A letter from Malta, dated August 26, fpeaking of the arrival of Lucien, fays "From the appearance of the arrange ments for the voyage, one might be inclined to fuppofe he fully intended to proceed to America; but he feems to have left his fate to fortune, and not to regret much that he has fallen into the hands of the British. Indeed, it is faid, that he made, fome time fince, advances on this head to Sir John Stuart; and, when he arrived in the island of Sardinia, there is little doubt but his capture was concerted there be tween him and our envoy, Mr Hill." A letter from the Pomone frigate, dated at Malta, August 31, ftates, that Lucien Bonaparte is coming to England in the Pomone, together with all his family and property. He is faid to have money funds, and bills of exchange on Paris to a great amount. PRINCESS AMELIA. in our Her Royal Highness the Princefs Amelia, who has been labouring under a heavy affliction for fuch a length of time, is, we are forry to fay, given up by her phyticians, as paft all hopes of recovery. The deplorable ftate of the Princess has had a great impreffion on his Majefty, who has declined coming from Winder to London, to hold his ufual levee, for feveral weeks paft. Her Royal Highnes is daily vifited by their Majeflies the King and Queen, and all her Royal brothers and fillers, who have been unremitting in their attention to her during her illness, SCOTTISH Scottish Chronicle. CIRCUIT INTELLIGENCE. Lord Armadale, Judge. HE Circuit Court of Jufticiary was opened at Inverary, on the 3d of Sep. tember, but no bufinefs, either criminal or civil, came before the Court at that place. The Circuit Court was opened at Stirling, on the 8th of September, and proceeded to the trial of James Brown, late prifoner in the tolbooth of Kinrofs, accused of the crimes of theft and housebreaking. The libel was reftricted to an arbitrary punish ment, and the Jury, all in one voice, found the pannel guilty; but in refpect of his imbecility, recommended him to mercy. He was fentenced to twelve months imprifonment in the tolbooth of Stirling. Thereafter, the Court proceeded to the trial of William Hunter, miner in Coalfnaughton, in the parish of Tillycoultry, and county of Clackmannan, accused of the theft of a five pound note; but the evidence having turned out very different from what there had been reafon to expect, the Advocate-Depure did not follow out the profecution, and the Jury found the libel not proven; whereupon he was affoilzied and difmiffed. George Allan, travelling merchant, lately refiding in Alloa, was accufed of theft and deforcement; but having been liberated upon bail, and failed to appear to ftand trial, he was outlawed, and his bail bond forfeited. The Circuit Court was opened at Glafgow, on the 12th of September, and proceeded to the trial of Peter Ogilvy, wright in Glasgow, accused of the murder of Ifobel Haftie, his wife, in their own house, near the Infirmary, on the evening of the 2d July laft.

Town Clerk, proved the declaration of the pannel.
