.l: POLITICAL SUMJIJiiX. r WE noticed in our last the raisunder.stiHuJ- ing which has taken place between Ll/e Civii governuient and the military in the past In. dies. • Nothing further has transpired oil which any reliance can be placed; as is usual on every unpleasant oectii-reiice, the niosl distressing runjours are circulaled. What will be the ex.act line ot policy pursued We are at a loss to conceive whether concession to the demands of the troops, or cocrdon-- bllt I. the former we should judge to be most likely, for it must be borne in mind'thai this 'is not !a- mutiny alone among the Citmmpn. soldiery, similar to that which took place in our navy a few years ago, merely for the increase of pa y and prize money, but re1 i on much higher grounds, being a disaffection'equally among the officers, extending from the su- preme in command to the towest subaltern, against the civil governmcut of the country. Concession on the part of the civil power act- ing ill any other regularly governed state, might: he attended with most fatal conse- quences 5 but it must be reeolle,cled that in the East a specièsof government has been adopted. totally differing irt its organization to every other on the globe—-there is no pub- lie to appeal to; the whole population con- sisting of persons either more or less attached to the civil offices in the state, or engaged in military pursuits; of course the military must possess the means of enforcing their de- mauds, and of controlling the civil power. The report of troops being about to embark ps out, to c from this country to enforce obedience, is too absurd to be believed,the very idea excites our horror IBrflotis fighting against. Britons: oil. cession may be dangerous,but this mightprore our final ruin tiiercis bat oue event, by which we think either of the two above means for allaying this ferment may be avoided; that is, if any" of the native powers should judge this a favourable opportunity to assert their inde- pendence and conimence hostilities Such a proceeding we are perfectly convinced would instantly revive and re-establisti that bond of union between the contending parties, which, before this unfortunate affair, so emiaeutly characterised all their proceedings. HOLLAN D.-The greatest alariu and dismay is every where manifested in this unfortunate country, at the threatened annexation of its territories to France. Nearly a hundred sait of shipping have fled to escape that plunder au41 coafcscatwu which would have inevitably attended tlie;v stay in Dutcli ports, on the ar- rival of the new custom-bouse officers ap- pointed by Napoleon. whole"oft,h, e.- correspond- ence between Mr. Jackson and the American Secretary has now been made public. After, sin attentive perusal of these official docu- ments we see nothing to alter our before de- clared sentiments of what must be the, final, resultj they ahoundin most raucourous invcctives against Great Britain and unless the most debitsi:i,, itid ci)lldiici' (which God. forbid l) is pursued, we can eoive no other alternative that cau be adopt- ed, than a war with this country. oL

The following tetter from Portsmouth, contains further particulars of this, pleas-ng intelli- gence • Portsmouth, Jan. 7. U Arrived the Princess Charlotte frigate j-, sailed from St. Helena tTie 201 h of November; in cojnpsny with the Lord Keith. The Lord. Keith spoke a Urig from the Isle of Boit 1. 1) I I,, which place she left the 12lli Oct: who in formed that the Island of Bourbon was captured on the 2fst Sept. hyCollllUudore i Bowley. The whole of the forts Irad surren- dered to the Carolina frigate of 50 gmis. The Europa and strcatham were found riding at anchor there, and were of. by his Majesty's ships. The Carolina and Streatliam arc arrived at the Cape; the Eu-I ropa had gone to Bombay for a cargo. The store-house containing the chief part of the cargoes of live Europa and Streathaill had caught fire, aiul were destroyed. therefore only a part of the cargoes fell into the hands of the English." c I.L adjitioli to the I c the Ports- mouth Letter, Coveininent has been informed by a Gentleman who came passenger in the Earl Speticer, which, with the Monarch., and Lord Keith ayd their convoy the Princess Charlotte, are arrived it) tile Do.Wns, that on the 21st of September the to garrison of M., Paul's, in the Islet of were taken by our cruising squadron, under Com- modore iiowley, in the Boadicea, with the Sirsus and Nereid frigates, aud the Otter sloop, assisted"by a party of the 56th regiment., and some Bombay sepoys, under Lieut.-Colonel Keating, of the 55th—W'heu the town had surrendered, there were found, in the roads and taken possession of, the French frigate Caroline, of 48 guns, the Sftrcatham, and Europa, regular East indiamen, ft small pri- vateer, f.,rmr ;r!y he GrappJcr pyiUbrig,. with several other small vessels, the whole of "which had arrived at tire Cape, except the Europa. which had been sent lo Boinhav. The Nereid had arrived at the. ( ape with the Captain of the Caroline, aud one hundred and sixty French prisoners. No English -Officer was killed in the capture of St: Paul's.

REPORT has already assigned the new wife to Napoleon according to which the Prin- cess of Sardinia is destined to become En)- press of France. We beticve she is a lineal descendant of the Ilouse-of Stewart. When j we considef the specious cunning which has invariably mirked.all lhe proceedings <>f this man, we should not be surprised if this event was really to take place; it affords such all J pie scope to his natural malevolence of heart,.] and unites with it, at the same liine, objects of high political consideration. In the first place, it gratifies his malevolence hy: wouh^iirg the feelings of our beloved monarch and, in the next, when he proclaims hintseif Emperor of the West, it willgi vc a colouring to pre- tensions to the Crown of England, which wo should not be surprised to see him annex to his spurious titles. Spanish and Portuguese papers have been received, the former contain very little new, merely recapitulations of the late disiis t ons conflicts, which are allowed almost in their fullest extent. In the latter we have a letter from Lord Wellington to the Junta of Estre- madura, inwhiherwe are informed, that th" late unfortunate events ofthear11 old Cas- tile have rendered it necessary to remove the British army to- the North of the Tagus-— Private accounts state their arrival at Elvas, from whence, it was conjectured, tlicy would continue their march to Coirabra and Oporto.
