Yesterday arrived in this port the ship Dispatch, Capt L tSLn, from Bordeaux, ' .which place she kft the 20th of June. Mr. Ro bert Bailey came passenger in the Dispatch, and forty Spanish and French gentlemen. Mr. Bailey has despatches from Mr. Armstrong for our go vernmeat. No change had taken place in France relative to American pi operty. Bonaparte con .tinued his hostility to this country. Mr. Arm Strong had noTTift France, and it was not known ' Vhen he would. . We have seen a letter from a gentleman at Paris which states that it was the writers opinion that he would not come even - then. . w - , . From letters and from gentlemen who have lately arrived from France, we have a "number of anecdotes respecting Bonaparte. It appears that this great man, who has almost conquered the. world is now fairly overcome by a woman. His first and almost sole attention is paid to his beautiful Empress. A short time since he left his seat while giving aucience to his officers, con trary to established custom, , at the call of his wife. And a few days previous, to the sailing of the Dispatch a bundle of state papers which had been sent to him at the empress's private apart ment, by the Due de Cadore, were returned un. opened. - Gen. Sarracen, who commanded at Boulogne -.hired a fisherman to carry him out a fishing in the harbour ; while they were-amusing themsel ves a British brig hove in sight, and the geneial compelled the fisherman to put him on board the brig j he then discharged the man and gave a , writing to show that he had been compelled to do what he had, done. It" was not ,knqwn in France what was the cause of this sudden deser " tion of the general ; but it was supposed to be on -4coulitLlklg!lejct . the part of Bonaparte ; in not giving him the prombiion which he thought he merited. To the politencs of a merchant in this city we are indebted for a file of French papers to the 14th of June. They are in the handssof the trans lator and if they should contain any thing of im portance,, we shall give it to morrow. . MEW YORK, AUGUST 19. FROM ENGLAND. On Saturday evening arrived at this port, -the fthip Pacific, capt. Stanton, from Liverpool sail ed the 8th July. ed bv Nanoleon An article from Hamburgh states that the scheme of marrying Ferdinand the Vllth to the daughter of Lucien Bonaparte, has been abandon ed, and that she and her father had returned to Italy American papers to the 29th May have been received, but the only novelty which they present is a copy of the correspondence between Marquis Weilesley and Mr. Pinkney, relative 10 tne reca of Mr. Jackson, Irom which we have given some interesting documents. June 29 ., Letters of the 24th, from Amsterdam, mention a very singular report current in that city, that there is a general insurrection in this country, and that the object of general Sarazon's visit to England was to give every possible assistance and encouragement to the disaffected party. The same letters mention that the exportation of corn has been prohibited from the Dutch ports, u be cause the French have prohibited the export o corn to Holland " They also state that a Irene consul has armed at Koningsbergj for the purpose of superintending the trade ol that place General Sarazin was on duty when- Napoleon and his new Empress were at Boulogne. Alte viewing the fortificatiops, and every thing inter esting in the town, they went to the heights to take a peep at the ocean. The Austrian Princess had a telescope in" her hand, and observing ayes sel cruising at some distance she enquired .what it was, and was infoimtd that it was an Lnghsh vessel " Perceiving fiveothersin the harbor, 6he asked what they were, and was told that they be longed to the Emperor. She then asked w hy the five vessels did not go out and take that belonging to the. enemy ? At this moment, Bonaparte, w ho bad shtwn a restless impatience, could restrain kiis feelings no longer, but snatching the glass out ol her hand, exclaimed tn the trench language, with great impetuosity" Because the wind is not tair 1" RIOT On Saturday flight very serious riot took piace at Liverpool . A roan belonging to an American vessel in the harbor, having been lm pressed, on the eround ot his being an English man under an American protection, a body of American seamen, taking the opportunity afford ed by the people about the docks being absent at dinner, proceeded to the rendezvous hibuse, arid being refused admittance by the only ojie of the gang then-in the place, they broke open the door, and dragged him on board an "American vessel in the dock ; tbey then proceeded to tarring and fea thering, and accordingly stripped him naked, "arid rolled him on the deck of the vessel, on which a quantity of tar had been previously poured;' Fea thers, however, not being at hand, they shook a cotton bai ever him, turned him loose into the suppose Peace practicable at the present moment, iv-' :-?K;e mnntrir. know sucliTa supposition to be perfectly absurd. Cour er. A report is prevalent, thai in oroer iu picvc-m the posibility of general Sarazin's imposing up on them, ministers had resolved to forbid his long er stay-in this country, and send him to America. We have enough here. J Letters from Madras state, that the heat pro duced by the Tate military differences in that go vernment, was entirely allayed. Most of the of ficers who had been suspended werevresioreu xo their rank and the favor of government. July 2.

' - ' Gi ven at ol'r.Chambeat of Commerce,- at Pa- the French have sustained a great loss of men, by the springing of a mine before Cadiz, but no date j is mentioned for this event. Government, we; understand, have received no dispatches from lord Wellington of a later date than the 9th ult. Min isters, it is affirmed, have received advices that Napoleon is collecting an immense . force in; the Adriatic, both of ships and troops. The pointin tended to attack is probably Egypt, from which he may most successfully annoy our possessions in .the East ; and it is probable that the threatened attack on Sicily is intended to co-operate with this principal object. The master of a neutral vessel just arrived from Nantes, states, that neither there nor any other part of the. French coast in that direction, is there any assemblement of troops ; and if this informa tion be correct, it follows, of course, that the re ports in the foreign journals of the formation of an army there to menace the shores oi Jtmtain, is a mere stratagem of the enemy to excite alurm among us, and prevent any further reinforcements being sent to our armies in Spain and Portugal. Since our last, Paris papers one day later than those received on Saturday, have reached ue ; "also a few German papers. The southern part of the TYROL has been formally incorporated with the kincdom of Italy, a circumstance which destroys every hope of the future independence ol that country. A Rentlemam-who has iust arrived from Rotter dam in a fishing vessel, which was repeatedly fired at by ' the French guard, says, that Napoleon is endeavoring to transfer the whole export ot the produce of the country to the. city ot Antwerp where licenses are obtained without difficulty, for pecuniary compliment. The only force m-Am sterdam was the royal guaids of Lcuis, consisting of 6000 men. At Rotterdam there were 1000 French, and in different stations along the shores of th e Me aseHihoutl 9,000 ;ltf6re'r"I or the insult to which the French were lately exposed atJRot terdam, the Dutchmen in that city have been o bliged to pay 100,000 guilders, and they have since shewn no disposition to give the same of- lence, and incur the same penalty. . SPALY AND PORTUGAL. " .There was a rumor current yesterday in the hieher circles, which, if it be well founded, im plies a total change of plan in the operations of our army in Portugal. It was said, that Lord Wellington," with the whole or greater part of the British army, was"to" embafk at Lisbon for the purpose oLpi'oceeding to St. Lucar, and afterwards co operating with, the garrison akCadiz, to raise the siege of tha city, and expel the enemy from Andalusia.' The defence of Portugal was inthe mean time to be committed to the Portuguese and S panish troops, under the command of Marshal Beresford andj the Marquis de Roman a- ' ' Paris, June 24. - By a decree of the 12th, all exportation of corril by the Scheldt, the Meuse, and the Rhine, thro' KOTahd,' B; prohibited - '.'"- "7!"
