If it is potti'ole for any one | to become the dupe of l’uih a political fo.-gery as this is, it is impossible to pity, i and abfuul to reason with them. Yesterday being the Jay fixed for the motion for an impeachment agaitift Lord Viscount Melville, a great crowd assem bled, at an early hour, in the avenues of the Houle of Commons. At twelve the doors wag opened, and a ftvere prcfTure ensued. The gallery, of course, was filled in afi w minutes. In the early part of the day an opinion prevailed, that Mr. Whitbread would open the debate : but •about three o’clo. k it was said, that Lord Viscount Melville would be previ ously heard in his defence. This excit ed a great degree of expectation, and a great number of persons crowded into tiie lowed, lobby, and also lined the Hairs l the galleiy of the hotife, which com ma ids a view of tile lobby, through which Lord Viscount Melville was to pais . about half pall four h s Lord (hip entered the lobby, and palled into the iccri’ary’s room, outhe left hand 1 — The house was at this time engaged in private bufintfs.

According to fome communications received yesterday from Lisbon, the A mcriean minister has left Madrid, in con frq icnce of the abrupt termination of tiie negociations which have been so long pending between his catholic ma jetty and the United States.

June 17 Another Mail from Hamburgh ‘arri O • veJ on Saturday atteraodD. A private letter (ays, that the court of B*rlin hac .101 yet form-ily acknowledged Bonapsr *2 ■ of A>, •- • ’ ‘-r car.te:# c ! .nir.fct with a coo! acknow! dgemenjof the r: -t :pt the letter, announcing Ja poleor.’j aT rnption of that title. A coniid.-rable degree of alarm waion Sa'wrday excited atnongft the mere anile interefl in the city, in consequence ofthe receipt of intelligence that two Ar*ri can drips, bound from New-Orleani to Liverpool, had been captured by Spai'fh privateers, and carried into the iflar.i of Cuba. It is confidently reported, -hat orders have been issued by the court of Madrid, to capture all American vdfils freighted with goods from British p -rts, upon the principle that the merchandize being iilued here, the Ids will fall uyon this country. This unqurilionably is a principl -as angular as any vrt hazarded by the moll extravagant innovator of the age- a letter from Vienna, of the zSth nit. fays that a considerable alarm prevails there, in consequence of the determinati on of the court to increase tilt military peace ellablifiiment, and the State Paper h.;s experienced a coiif: lerablc deprecia tion iioni the alarm of war. The statement of M. Novoz ’zcff hav ing received passports to proceed -from Petercburgh to Paris, or Bruifels, con tinue to be repeated in ternls of the moil confident and positive. Upon the fubjtX of the dclufive overture which has been made, we have derived the following information from a quarter the moll authentic and rcfpeXable Bona parte’s fi; it prefitien to the Britifn go vernment, we are allured, was made with ‘.he (ole view of frußracing it s endeavor* so form a continental aliiar.ee against Francs. The reference to the emperor cf Ruifia disappointed fir a time his tx peXation, though, by the delay, which nectflarily occuneJ, lie so far iucceedcd as to prevent ai.y cor.crrt of hoftiie pre parations for the present year. He has now renewed b;3 over'vre to the court of Peterfburgh, through the medium of those of Vienna and Berlin, and his ex planation of the letter lately addrclTed by him to the king cf G cat Britain has at length been heard. His prof.(lions are fpetious, but he Hill confines himfelf to general terms. In the mec* time, a ccnditi'jnal treaty between the courts @f London and Peteilhurgh has been coiu eluded, by which Russia binds herfelf to take up arms againtt France in the event only of Bonaparte’3 refitting to accept of equitable terms of peace. Os the na ture of this treaty he has been fully in | form :d by the court of Berlin, but his ; replies have hitherto been avafive and | unfatisfuXory. The representations of the British government upon the fuljeX ! are of the moll dignified defeription, and Rufiia has called upon Fiance, through the medium of Prussia, for a final and pacific declaration. Thus situated he can no longer avade the question, and of lus difpcfition, no poflitile doubt can be entertained from the furious language which has lately appeared in the A-oni trur, and the explicit and unequivocal declaration that nothing but the treaty of Amiens will be accepted by France Whether this demand will be cocfidered jail or equitable by the court of Peters burgh, aveiy (hurt time vvili determine. We.iiope, notwithllanding the pflertion of the enemy, it will nt. If it (hould, all hopes of continental aid on cur part will, of course, be disappointed ; and our only allies, in that tale, will be our own courage, cur parriotifin and unani niity ; nor do we overrate their value, by deeming Ihem, in the hour of danger, luperior to any force however numerous and difeipliuej, which might be allured by ourfubfidies from the regions cf the north. We repeat that the Cgning cf ano ther treaty of Amiens would be the feel ing of the disgrace, if not the ultimate deilruXion of Great Britain ; and no Englishman, we are well persuaded, is prepared to prottrate hi* country at the feet of France. A letter from Vienna repeats the state ment that Bonaparte had fignified his wifli to occupy Dolrr.aria and the Ve netian territory during the war. it is added, that he had oh;red to give the Island of Sardinia to the king of Naples, m exchange far his continental domi nions. We do not pledge ourfelvcs for the truth of this intelligence, but if it be true, the emperor of Germany wdl have no alternative but that of war, or abjetft lubmiflion to the corfican Usurper. A considerable degree of alarm was on Saturday exciteh among the mercan tile interest in this city, in copfcquence of the receipt of intelligence that two American (hips, bound from xew-Orlcans to Liverpool, had been captured by Spa niih privateers and carried into the Is land of Cuba. It is confidently reported that orders have been issued by the court of Madrid, to capture ali American ves sels freighted with goods from Britifti ports, upon the principle that the mer chandize being Tfifured here, the lefts will fall upon this countrytl 7 tiis un queftionabiy is a principle as Angular ac any yet hazarded by the mod extravagant innovator of the age. a letter from Madrid, of the* 12th May, fays, “ Mr. Tun.a, who pre viously to 1 lie war, resided here as consul general, is appointed L. tnh agent for the exchange 01 prisoners ot war, and has j been recognized ia that capacity by our 1 government.' ’ j a letter from V.cr.nr., of the 28th ult. fays, that a couiidcrable alarm pre -1 vails there, in coi.feqnence of the ceter ininatioia of the court to iricre-ie the mi- L.tAry citabliihxr-ut, and the liate I paper Las experienced a c.; Iprccutiou from the alarm of war. | iio.aj.arCc ...a ;d at . fj Ult 25 tli*- !il• 1 * Uk.is ** ” * * -5 * coronr.uo-3, Ci-.it'uuic to be g--.--.it daily in that city.
