Notwithltanding the afertion in our papers, that the Ottoman Porte would follow the example of Eng land and Raffia, in not acknowledging Narozeos I as Emperor of the French, an official letter from Conflantinople, of Augull ty Rates, that the Reis Effendi, as foon as the Turkifb Government was in-1 formed of the change in the title of the Chief of the French nation, fent for General Baur; and told him, on the part of the Grand Signior, that he was ordered to compliment his Excellency in theft words: " That the Divan, but particularly Sultan 13 List, was much interefted in every thing that concerned his Imperial Majedy, and which could confirm the friendfhip fo happily fubfiffing between France and Turkey ; and that, particularly ince the journey of Monfieur Jot/sear, the former confidence and har mony between the two empirec were fully reamed." The Moniker alerts, that the number of young men to be called out this year will be much lets than in the preceding. There is no doubt but the fortifications of Mentz will be difmantled.

The common opinion is, that the expedition will fet fail for England. In the mean time, the plan to concentrate all the naval forces in the harbour of Boulogne continues without interruption. A flrong divifion, which yetlerday failed from Mend, has for tunately reached that deftination. The Batavian gun-boats arrived from Fluffing will loon Beer the fame condo.
