NOitTH WEST EXPEDITION,
NOitTH WEST EXPEDITION, THEfollowing important information on the above subject,, is this moment (half- past 12, Saturday,) posted at Lloyd's « Extract of a Letter from Whitby, "dated Oct. 16:- This morning arrived off here, two ♦Varltptl riggep with tti £ .^ce^PitelL their channels filled up, and having some Whale boats, and being King's ships, they are supposed to be from Baffin's Bay, un- der command of Captain Parry. A boat from the shore is alongside, but as yet no communication from them-' Half-past Eleven, A. M. 4 Captain Parry has just landed here. In addition to the above, we under- stand that Captain Parry, this morniflg arrived at the Admiralty, in perfect health, and had an audience with the first Lord; he has only lost four men during the voy- age, two in each ship. We are assured that the object of his mission; has been partially fulfilled, although, perhaps, not to the extent that might have beet* wished. Captain Parry states, that he gitw land on the right and on (he left, and an open sea before him but an impenetrable bar of ice prevented his reaching the open sea. Oporto, Sept, 29.—The insolence of the evil-miodad has risen lately to a great height, as we are assured, speaking with unheard of effrontery inventing fables at pleasure, and publishing them among the incautious people, who being unpre- pared, listened with consternation-to what these'individuals published to them, an- nouncing to them fata! events, and even indicating in their fiction the fidelity of the dSth lleeiment, which is so firm in the cause of Royalty, with great regularity and harmony, by which it has merited the praises of the Infant don Michael, as wan stated in the Order, of the Day. Such taen, however, seem worthy of punish- ment, when recognised as the authors and propAgaturs o> such news, faitl we aic CAM tain that the competent authorities will inquire into such scandalous facts, which may affect the public tranquillity amidst the calm which we happily enjoy. Lisbon, Oct. 4.- The Gazette of to-day contains a letter from the Military Go- vernor of Algarve, announcing the liberty of the King of Spain, and the entrance of the Duke of Angouleme into Cadiz, on the 28th of September. This letter is signed Jose Corea da Millo. Head- quarters Villa Real de Santo Antonio, Sept 30." The trial of tiiego has commenced be- fore the Civil Tribunal, notwithstanding his rank, and this circumstance makes it be believed that will be sacriti,,eci.- No troops now remain at Pampeluna, ex- cept the necessary garrison all the rest are gone against Lerida. the siege of which is to be vigorously pushed, notwithstand- ing the Events at Cadiz. It is said that the King will publish a declaration, re- sembling that of St. Ouen. A treaty is spoken of, by which 60,000 French are to occiapy Spain for four years, and the English intervening as guarantees, will hold Cadiz for the same period The disorder at Passage is nearly over; the physicians «'ho ^ad "fen Sent there are coL back.

The capital was tranquil. Madrid, Oct. 6.—A very remarkable difference of opinion exists respecting the elfects that the liberty of the King will produce. At the first news of this event, the general cry was, 46 All is over;" even the Constitutionalists, who do not re- flect, ate of this opinion; but others, judging of the irritation of parties, and the insufficient means that are adopted to conciliate the coliflictiriz interests, con- sidering further the disorganization of all the branches of the Administration, the absolute necessity of a pjan 0^ fiitauce founded on the strictest economy, which the new Government will hardly be able to introduce, and lastly, the desire of a great part of the nation which is discon- tented and without employment, to see the confusion and anarchy continue: those who consider this, say « All is not 3fk°uactofa LHter from an WW gentleman long resident in Cadiz, dated Oct. 2, 1.823', li'r'e co ^sion and di5m['-y wh,ch reigned in Cadiz, after the bombardment, exceeded all description until its com- mencement, Constitution and resistance were on every person's tonoue but when the shells fell into the town, all the ef- forts of the garrison could not prevent terror from overpowering the hearts of the inhabitants, who, panic struck, sought -a.reto-A from the fury, r ft. Wilson, who commanded the Cortadura and advanced lines on that side, assisted by many of our eountrymen, joined with the Constitutional Members of the Cor- tes, and the Mitiiiter, Cahtrava and Yandioia, in the most noble efforts to re- animate the people, and instil into their minds some of their own spirit and fearless courage. The brave garrison supported with discipline and valour the fatigues and dangers of the day; but the troops had suffered much from privation and hard duty large sums of momey had been distributed among the rabble; some even of the Cortes had been corrupted others participated in the general panic the King made the most solemn assurances of mediation, and was suffered to Embark, ere the Madrid Volunteers were informed of the event, otherwise it would have been impossible. I accompanied the iletiiiiie here; his Majesty was received tin the Mole by a concourse of French, priests, and populace. A procession accompa- nied the Royal Family to thei/quarters, composed of soldiers, faiars, officers, and rabble, armed wilh banners, crosses, Vir- gins, poniards, and torches; there was a savage joy in their countenances, as they cried *4 Vivo el Rey, viva la Religion, muera la iVacion, muRran los Nr'Tros'i The respectable part of the French otli- I cers followed at a distance, and observed the scene with indiif-rence and coniempf, The next day the Roy til Family, with -their former attendants, wellt to tile Ca- thedral, where in hymns, snngs, prayers, mirth, and drunkenness, the ex- pressed their pleasurent beiii^empowered to gratify their ..1 "s.omts.

The emigrations increase hourly-of 600 National Volunteers belonging to this city, 428 have already fled to the mountains of Niebla and Ronda, to es- cape the ignominious death which awaits many of their comrades, who have been imprisoned, and are to be tried by a mi- litary tribunal as Constitutionals. At Xeres, San Lucar, Port Royal, and all the neighbouring villages, these violent measures have spread consternation, and hundreds of the best families have aban- doned their homes, taken refuge in the mountains, and become wanderers, and almost robbers, to support their exist- ence. The effervescence among the lower class of people is intense; authorized to satiate their passions, they hunt all those who are compromised as blood hounds on the scent, and assassinate them when dis- covered. The state of the country is dreadful it surpasses all description in anarchy, confusion, and I)Ioo(IIllied,-I' ,I e French do little to prevent these cruelties, but should they depart, universal depo- pulation and desolation must ensue. The French, we understand, have already sellt fast- sailing vessels to Tenenffe, Cuba, and South America, to summon them to sur- render to the Allied arms, and return to unlimited obedience to King Plerdinan(I.- What influence these emissaries may have is not known, but L learn from good au- thority that the United States have anti- cipated them in their views at the IIa. vannah, and that it is believed England will not allow them to revolutionise the: Western World. 44 General Downie, Col. Browne, and many other Officers confined with him, have waited upon his Majesty and the Duke, and have experienced the most flattering reception. The General has been promoted to the rank of Lieutenant- General as a reward for his services and sufferings, and the others have been at- tended to in proportion. Sir W, A'Court is expected, and I hear, will receive the Ribband of Charles III. for his influence in bringing about the restoration; his friends praise the diplomatic art he has I eviuced here and at Naples, in which they find great a&o'uv,

- -11, r---NAPOLEON'S ATTEMPTED…
-11, r NAPOLEON'S ATTEMPTED SUICIDE. (From Baron Fain's Work.) I WHILE at Fontainebleau, Napoleon is said to have attempted to steal from the world On the night of the 12th, the silence which reigned in the long corridors of the palace was suddenly interrupted by the souud of hurried footsteps. The servants of the palace were heard running to will fio candles were lighted in the inoer apartment, and the valets de chambre were called up. Doctor Yvan and Grand Marshal Bertrand were also summoned. The Duke of Vicenza was sent for, and a message was dis- patched to the Duke of Bassano, who resided at the Chancellery. All these individuals arrived, 40..<4. iuee..gimeiy introduced into the em- petor's bed-chatuber. Curiosity -in- Sain !eat an anxious ear; nothing was beard but groans and sobs escaping from the anti-chamber and re- sounding through the gallery. At length Dr. Y van came out of the chamber he hastily de- scended into the court-yard, where finding a horse fastened to the railing, he mounted him and galloped off. The secret of this night has alwaya been involved in profound obscurity. The fof- lowing story has however been related:- » During the retreat from Moscow, Napoleon had, in case of accident, taken means to prevent his falling alive into the hands of (fie enecnv. He procured from Surgeon Yvan a bag of opium which he wore about his neck. as long as danger was to be apprehended. He afterwards carefully deposited this bag in a secret drawer of his cabi- net. Oo the night of the 12th, he thought the moment had arrived for availing himself of this last expedient. The valet de chambre, who slept in the liójilioing room, the door of which was half open, beard Napoleon empty something into a glass of water, which he drank, and then re- turned to bed. Pain soon extorted from hitn an acknowledgement his aoproachiug end. He their sent for the most confidential persons in his service. yviiii was sent for also but learning what had occurred, aod hearing Napoleon com- plain that the poison was not sufficiently quick in its effect, he lost all self possession, and hastily (led trom Fontainebleau. It is added that Na- poleon fell into a long sleep, and that afier copious perspiration every alarming symptom disappeared the dose was either insufficient in quantity, or time had mitigated the power of the poison. It is said that Napoleon, astonished at the failure of his attempt, after some moment's reflection, exclaimed God has ordained that I shall live!" and yielding to the will of Provi- dence which had preserved his existence, he re- signed himself to a new destiny. The whole affair was hushed in secrecy, and on the morning of the 131h Napoleon arose and dressed himself as usual; his objection to ratify the treaty was now at an end, and he signed it without further hesitation.' The closing scene of Napoleon's reign is thus given by Baron Fain: 4 At one of those moments when Napoleon was anxiously looking for (iie couso/alion of some of his old friends, Colonel Montholon presented himself. He had just arrived Irom the Upper (joire, whither he had been sent to make a recon- uoisauce. He described the sentiments by which I the people and the troops were animated: he spoke of rallying the forces of the south.Na- poleon smiled at the zeal of this faithful servant. 14 It is too late," he replied such an attempt would expose France to the horrors of civil war, and no consideration can urge me to risk that." These last testimonies of fidelity seemed to con- sole Napoleon for the wounds which ingratitude had aimed at his heart. He regularly perused the Paris journals, from which torrents of abuse were vented upon him. This made but slight im- pression on him Hud when hatred was carried to a point of absurdity, it only forced him a smile of pity. He happened to find, in one of the newspapers, an article signed Lacretelle There are two of that iiaiiio," liaid he which of them wrote this ? Surely not my Lacretelle ?" These insults, added to the ingratitude of many individuals whose fortunes he had either made or commenced, doubtless had some share in influencing his resignation. Ol ail the intelligence that Napoleon received from Paris, that which caused him least vexatiou was the arrival of the Count d' Artois, because his presence would terminate the authority of the pro visional go*eraiBeii?* f 7 except with Rambuuillel. "'General Flahaut, Colonel Montesquieu, «>wl Baron de Beau««et Were continually going backwards and fivw&njs with messages from Napole-'m lo the Empress, and from the la'ter to Napoleon. • Maria Louisa had received a visit from tier rattler at The Emperor Ft •'> could not rel)i-ess hi,. tears when he beloved daughter.

The Emperor Frynris repea'ed his visit oil the following day, when he was accompanied by the Emperor Alexander, who had expressed a wish to wait on the Empress. This extraordinary mark of politeness, served only 10 increasee Na- poleon4* vexation. The last accounts he receiv- eel from Rarnbouillet were, that the Empress I would set out for Vienna the moment he quitted Fi-ntainebleau that she would carry her son with her, and would he attended by the Ductless of Montebello, the Countesses of Monie^quiou and of lirignolet, General Caffarelli, Baron Beausset and Baron Mennesal. I But it is time it) close the retital of this great catastrophe. M) Wearied pen hall seferal times dropped from my hand but I now resume it to fulfil my task. The commissioners of the allieil powers had all arrived at Foutainbleau, and 'he depsrtuie was fixed for the 20ih of April. On th* night of the 19th Napoleon ex perienced another desertion ) his confidential valet Constant, and his Ivlamelukc Roiistan, disappeared. 4 On the 20th at noon, the travelling carriages drew op in the court of the chevai-blanc, at it-c foot of the fer-a-cheval steps. The imperial guard formed ir-telf in hues. At one o'clock N a- poleon quilted his apartment. He beheld, ranged along the avenues through which he passed, all that now remained of the numerous and brilliant court in Europe: these individuals, were, the Duke of Bassano, General Belliard, Colonel de Bus.i, Colonel Anaiole Montesqmou, Count of Turenne, General Fouler, BarJn Mesgrigny* Colonel Gi-urgaud, Baron Fain, Lieutenant Colonel Athalin, Baron de la Plate, Bari n Le- lorgoe d'ldeville.
