r" -- THE ARMY. " PORTSMOUTH, YULY le. fi The constant rain is bad for the soldiers in the camps. This day part of the 83d and of the Rifle Corps, came into camp ; to-morrow part of the 9th Dragoons come in, and the rest on Wednesday ; on the following days German Dragoons will come. They talk of embarking on Monday next, and Lord CHATHAM is expected down about the end of this week —they look for Lord PAGET to-morrow. Among the other Colonels who haVe come down here to sec their regiments embark, and take leave of them before ;he fine fellows go on service, is General ENGLAN% the Governor of Plymouth. His regiment, the sth, is one of the finest going in the present ser bice, and it is headed by one of the best Commanding Officers in the Army. Duke of KENT is expected to take leave of ftis recirnelt, the 3d battalion . of the Scotch Royals. a To-morrow the battali no collected in the depot in the Tslepf Wight, and which is commanded by the gallint Colonel COCHRANE ; joins here." On Saturday last, a Supreme Board was held at the Royal Military College, High Wycombe, con iristing of the Commander in Chief, his Rilyal High ness the Duke of KENT, Earl HARCOURT, Lords GROWENOR and NIARCIIANT, General CALVERT, and Lieut. Colonel Sir HOWARD DOUGLAS ; before whom, and in presence of a room full of Officers and Profes sors, the following Officers underwent a long exami nation in mathematics, fortification, military drawing, tactics, and the science of position, viz.— Captain GII/CLEY Stith Regiment.. Captain it GPI,ON "4th Regiment. Captain VINCENT ...... ........ ..... 82(1 Regiment. Lieutenant HEXRIES ...... ....... ...... 9th I.t. Dragoons. Lieuterant CLEDSTANES 68th Regiment. Having passed to the satisfaction of the Board, these Gentlenien were ordered to receive the certifi cates of their qualifications. The examination Listed five hours, arid is the first slate the institution of the College that has been pub lic. to all military men. General BnowNRIGG, the Quarter Master General, -:"or whose department these Officers are more parti cularly intended, was prevented from attending the Board, being employed in making preparations for the grand armament fitting out in our ports. Sir DAVID DCNDAS, with his usual indefatigable spirit, went from town and returned the same day, and did nbt appear the least weary or fatigued. The Army will perceive with great pleasure the Coma antler in Chief devoting some of his attention to this important institution. The junior department cf the College at Marlow has already supplied the subaltern ranks with many valuable young men, and this, the senior department, has distributed a good many useful Officers among the Staff and higher ranks of the a , my. It is, however, pretty generally known, that the one and the other of these establish- merits are susceptible of great improvements. Bat in proportion as we feel the want of officers properly instructed in their profession, shall we appreciate the utility of such establishments; and Government, no doubt, will consider the expediency of putting the College on that liberal footing which shall more ef fectually secure to the British nation the object for which they were originally established. The 77th regiment have marched from Winchester barracks, on their route to embark at Portsmouth.— A party of the Northampton Militia have taken the garrison duty. The Royal West Middlesex Militia, which was sta tioned at Silverhill, marched into Battle barracks oil Tuesday last. The t.'?,d battalion of the 96th regiment not being able to muster 300 effective men, is ordered to proceed to Jersey, instead of joining the expedition at Ports mouth. The fourth division of the 4th regiment marched into Deal barracks on Saturday, from Canterbury. The Ayrshire Militia moved from Eastbourne bar rac:s on Wednesday last to Bletchington ; and on the .a:r.e day, the 2d Surrey removed into East Bourne barracks from Pevensey. Thursday, a Court Martial was held at Southamp ton, on two privates of the Volunteer Corps, for mu tiny. One was pardoned on making a proper apology, the other was found guilty, and the sentence is laid before the Commander in Chief. About 80 gun-boats are fitted out at Sneerness to go V.ith the expedition, each boat carries two 24-pound e7s ; some of the most gallant and experienced Offi ctri, in the service are selected to command them. Gove:..lment have very wisely taken into considera fon the distressed situation in which the women and :Iliidren of our brave defenders would be placed, by their not being permitted to accompany their husbands •,n the present expedition, and have ordered, that a ,sertain proportion should be left in the barracks oc -...upicd by t h e respective reg i ments , an d a ll owe d to o:aw the same allowance as a like number of men, those beyond the regular proportion are allowed 4. of money for themselves and children, to repair their homes. Four comp•- .'es of the Royal Artillery, under the cimmand of Lieutenant-Colonel Wool), marched Ito Witham on Friday morning, on their route to Chatham, where they are to remain until transports ate ready. Prev: , llis to their leaving the barracks of Colchester, the excellent Band of the 6th Dragoon. Guards, requested permission to attend deem out of town, which .vas accepted by the Commanding Of ficer; and, precisely at four o'clock, the party 'quelled, the Laud playing, , g The British Grena r:iers."—On Lezden Heath they separated, with three ..htcrs: the Band returned to Colchester, and the Companies of Artillery proceeded on their route, at tcaded for some &wee by numerous inhabitants of o,vn and rrrisca, although the rain fell the "4)40!e morning.

We have at lentth room to insert the intetesting document re lative to the commercial relations between Atherica and the Continent of Europe, which we promised on Friday last. It has been most industriously circulated in France, and was at first ascribed to the holders of American produce on the Con tinent. It has, however, all the intrinsic marks of being a demi-official precursor of the measures about to be adopted by France, in consequence of the renewal of our intercourse with America. LETTER TO lIIS EXCELLENCY THE COUNT OF (SUPPOSED TO BE CHAMPAGNY), ON DF.PEALING OF THE EMBARGO BY THE CONGRESS OF THE UNITED STATES. PARIS, MAY to, Your Excellency asks my opinion on the rais ing of the Embargo, which has existed more than a year past in the United States :—I answer, and do not hesitate to say, That this measure is a master piece of its kind, and one of the most dexterous com binations that ever came out of the British Cabinet : it will be easy for me to demonstrate this proposition to your Excellency. The shutting of the Sound and of Ti ieste becom ing every day more and more inevitable, the English Merchants were on the eve of being deprived of all communications with the Continent—lnto divisos erbe Britannor. The vast prohibitory system, so wisely conceived by the genius that governs France, was 'about to receive its full measure of completion. Overstocked with the Merchanclize of the two In dies, without any possible vent, their commodities dis carded from the immeree markets of the Continent • and of America, England was deservedly about to re- , ceive the wages of her insatiable avarice, and to sink , under the weight of her usurped riches. What was necessary, then, to save her from this Crisis, and to enable her to transport to every point of the globe whence her own flag was excluded, the enormous quantities of merchandize of every kind heaped up on the banks of the Thames ?.—The suc cour of a people essentially adventurous, active, am bitious, possessing an immense mercantile Navy, na vigating at a small expence, knowing how to pene trate every where, not shrinking from any danger to satisfy an equal thirst after gold—this succour Eng land has just obtained by the raising of the American Embargo. The last letters from America assert that this measure was carried almost by open farce, by the federal, or in other words, the English party. It is well known, that twas4hirds at least of the American commerce is carried on with English capital, and for English account ; hence the vast extent which this self-called American commerce is about to take, must definitively turn to the advantage of this very English commerce, which was on the brink of ruin. Who then can be duped by the impartiality Congress af fects to observe in this Act i—the dullest shop-boy of London would not suffer himself to be thus im. posed en. America demands of both France and England, that one and the other shall respect her flag ; threa tens to shut her ports against either of them that shall violate her neutrality ; and even to declare war against that Power. But mark this assertion,— " France is about to lose the last of her possessions in the West Indies !" The American people well know that they had nothing to fear from Fraece, and that by keeping at a distance from our coasts in Eu rope her vessels cannot be touched by us : whereas England, Mistress of the Seas adjoining the United States, can strike a powerful blow when she pleases. It became necessary, therefore, for America to ap pear neutral, to find means of satisfying England, without appearing to submit to her tyrannic preten sions; and this is precisely what has been put in prac tice, according to authentic information recently re ceived. On the sailing of the packet-boat (the Mentor) from Net' York, more than one hundred vessels were loading or had sailed for Holland, where they well know they Neill not be received, and where they had no intention of going. Already several have arrived in England, in defiance of the law of Congress, and notwithstanding the bonds and security given not to approach the English coast ; they get themselves taken by the first English cruizer they meet with, prove afterwards that the property is English, are released, and, with a good round oath from the Cap tain, they avoid the penalty incurred. When in Eng land, they pay the duty fixed by the Orders in Coun . N.41 7 41L INTELLIGENCE. PLYMOUTH-DOCK, JULY 9. Captain TOBIN, or the Princess Charlotte frigate, who arrived here yesterday, with the West India fleet under convoy, states that the whole of our Trans. Atlantic possessions are in a most tranquil state, and more healthy than they have been for many years.— Captain TOBIN brought l•ome 70 French prisoners, taken out of different French vessels, captured by our cruizers from Jamaica.— The only captures our ships on the West Indian station have latterly been able to make consist of small privateers, fitted out against our trade from Guadaloupe. Yesterday a fisherman belonging to Cawsand fell out of his boat in the Bay, and was untortunately drowned. Arrived, the Circe frigate from the West Indies, on which statical she has been four years and five months. nearly ever since she was launched ; she came home with the Diamond and her convoy, and sepa rated from them a few days since ; also arrived, the Encounter gun-brig, from Lisbon ; site came with the Eyderen and her convoy from Lisbon, and separated the day before they came in here ; the transports are ordered to get under weigh, for Portsmouth and the Downs, and are expected to sail this evening, the wind being now fair for them—North.

NoW it will take hfienty cargoes of those articles. to pay for one of colonial produce, and all the gold of France will be rapidly swept away, as it was not long since, when the Americans came into our pints by hundreds. Besides, who does not know that they' give a decided preference to the wi nes o f M a d e i ra, e i Spain, and Portugal, as having more body, and to the brandies of Catalonia, a's being cheaper ? and, moreover, not content with consuming it themselves, they will hawk it about in the north of Europe, to the great prejudice of ours, for which we have for some time found a considerable vent by land. They will sell us tobacco, but does it suit us to crush a new branch of agriculture, which is making daily the greatest progress, and frees us from a burthensome foreign tribute ? Cottons! Cannot the Levant furnish us with enough, and take in exchange the rich productions dour ma nufactures ? Sugars and Coffee! Where can they get it for themselves if not from the possessions of England or her conquests ? Will they have the effrontery to bring us the produce of our own colonies, now become the prey of our enemies ? This would be too much. What care we fcr those costly superfluities, the con sumption of which is of so much injury to our own soil ? If our epicures c-annot do without them, our privateers will not let them want. Many more reflections, Sir, might be added to what I have just said, but let us confine ourselves to this : the Americans, tolerated by us as neutrals, will do us still greater injury with regard to the exporta tions of our grain. They can curry theirs much cheaper to all the people that consume ours : being at equal price and even higher, it will always be preferred by the English ; they will bring it to Spain anal Por tugal, and deprive us of the last vent which still re mained to our southern departments. All that has been said until now, relates not only to France, but to all the countries subject to her in fluence or under her dominion, and from which may be drawn this true and melancholy consequence, that all maritime or colonial commerce, admitted or tole rated on the Continent of Europe, will always turn to the advantage of the English people, and will fur nish them with the means of prolonging the war ; that the Americans are about to become the most powerful auxiliaries to this commerce, and that the veil under which they pretend to disguise it will give l it a new energy—that it is the greatest interest of France and of her Allies to defeat, by all possible means, that odious connivance between the people who call themselves our friends, and the eternal ene mies of our repose and prosperity. E. D. I was on the point of forwarding my letter when I learned, from a good source, that all is now finally arranged between England and the United States, and according to the news of the 29th of April, to reciprocal satisfaction. This open and frank step of the United States, is at least more decent than what they first adopted. They have agreed with the Eng lish not to sail to France, Holland, or Italy, and to take from them the inclination (admire the precau tion), a new Order of Council of the 29th April last, declares those countries in a rigorous state of blockade ! All the ports of the United States are opened as formerly to the English commerce. This is excellent ! It remains to be known whether these happy combinations will not be rendered useless by him who so well knows how to have his orders exe cuted. Whether he will suffer all the countries that surround France to be inundated by English goods, which would be fraudulently introduced into his Em pire ? Whether the frontiers of Germany or Switzer land will not be as rigorously shut as those of Hol land, to whatever may come from that self-called American commerce ? Whether all allies will not join in the total exclusion of a flag which has become too suspicious ? Whether precautions will not be doubled and carried to the greatest pitch of severity —whether we must not learn definitively to do without some factitious engagements, and thereby prevent one or two millions more men from perishing as vic tims of English monopoly and American cupidity ? The Duchess of Buccleugh has been swindled lately out of several sums of money, by means of let ters sent to her Grace, purporting to be written by Lady Elizabeth Murray, stating that her Ladyship was under embarrassed circumstances in London.— , Her Grace believing the tale, sent money at different times, as requested, addressed to the Crown Hotel, Soho-square. Her Grace afterwards, in correspon ding with her friends in Edinburgh, found that she had been imposed upon, as Lady Elizabeth Murray was in Edinburgh, where he: Grace had been for some time past. A few days since her Grace re ceived another letter in the same hand-writing, and purporting to be written by Lady Elizabeth Murray, requesting another sum of money ; stating that it was to convey her to Windsor, she having been ap pointed to a place in the Palace, under their Majes ties. The money, as usual, was requested to be sent to the Crown Hotel, Soho-square. This letter was answered by her Grace's agent, requesting that Lady Elizabeth Murray would wait upon the Duchess of Buccleugh, at her house in Privy-gardens. Yester day a young man, genteelly dressed, about 20 years of age, called at her Grace's house,-and informed the porter he was grandson to Lady Elizabeth Murray, and called by the appointment of the Duchess. The porter being informed of all the circumstances, shewed him into the stew ard's room and procured a con stable. He was taken to the Public Office, Queen's square, and underwent an examination before the Sit ting Magistrate, who committed him to Tothill-fields Bridewell for further examination. He said his name was Nichol. The Leeds waggon was lately overturned at Clay ton Heights, owing to the road giving way, and the waggon rolled down the frightful precipice at that place.
