On Saturday the Spanilh Miniller at
tended a meeting of the Spanish Mer
chants at Batfong Coffee House, Corn
hill. The purport of this meeting was
to consult on what flops were necessary
to be taken upon the alarming and
rapid progress made by the French in
the n\aritiine and plentiful province on
Bifiay, fmce the capture of the pass
arid the city of Fontarabia. By the
letters received the latter end of last
week it appears that the French are
pouring in-frefc troops every day, and
that fher carry every thing before thefc
the inhabitants bci'ig neither capable
or willing'to refill. Tiie cities of St
Sebastian and Tolofa wre entered '.li
on t firing a (hot ; at the latter, the peo
ple went in crowds to meet the French
and the very fame day, at a general
assembly, the whole of the inhabitants
solemnly accepted the French constitu
tion, and swore to maintain ii. The
Merchants, Ecclefialticks, and Nobles
had fled, but all their property and eff
ects were put into a (lite of requisiti
on.
A body of ten thonfand French, with
a large train ofartitlccy and plenty of
necessaries, marched the next day to se
cure all the passes in the country tow
ards Bilboa, anw another body were to
fallow them in a few days, for the a
vowed puipofe of believing that impor

province of Biscay, with its trading
ports as ftrft stated in our paper of the
26th ult. was in the irtoH imminent dan
ger of being surrendered to the Carmag

could be obtained, The result
of this meeting is to be laid before the
Ministers.
The very important part »f Spain which
is now in danger of being over-run by
the Fren :, contains more sea ports and
harbours than .'.'.l the remainder of the
Spanish territories in Europe, a.id is in
deed, of very great importance to the
mercantile interefl of C»reat Britain and
Ireland. The imports into England art
very material to our maautadiures, parti
cularly in the articles of Spanish wool and
steel ; they likewise import hides, goats
(kins, honey, fruit, wine, and other na
tive productions They take in return
almost every article of Britiih manufac
ture, either for ease, convenience or lux
ury.
