" Very few occurrences, public or private, could occasion the concern which all ranks feel for the fate of that gallant veteran, the tisk:. or Banana, who has of late suffered mach from his wound, about which the Surgeons begin to be very apprehensive : itis now found to have touched the hip joint. GOD forbid that any thing should befal him—after the MARQUIS, he is the man to whom the whole of the army looks up. 6 ' 4rnong the very Cations letters found in the bag, gage of Joseph Bonaparte and Marsha) Jourdan, taken by the 15th Hussars, at Vittoria, there are some be tween Joseph and Napoleon, which would at a future day enable the historian to develope what at present appeals very mysterious. Joseph informs his brother that Soult has designs against the crown of France and life of Napoleon, and that he has been intriguing with many calin Generals. Soult, its retnrn, accuses Joseph of treating with the brigands, as he terms the Guerillas, and informs NA. POLEON, that under the table he has a very good un derstanding with some of their Chiefs. The truth is, that it uow appears Josent's wines and supplies from France, as well as pierchandize from France to Spain, have been allowed to pass on paying a regular settled tribute to some of these brigands. " The siege of St. Sebastian's is pushed on with all the activity v. - h;ch the means we have will allow.

English, and the utmost con sternation prevails in Bayonne, and throughout the court( y. The Merchants at Bayonne have hastily removed their merchandise, and the inhabitants are flying with their effects in every direction. When, however, the excellent address of Lord WELLINGTON to the Allied Army is promulgated, there is no doubt that the people of France will have their fears quiet ed.—The discipline kept np on the frontier army among the Allied troops is admirable : this is chiefly owing to rigorous example, and to that excellent corps the Mounted Staff Corps. 66 General riys g continues his progress in France in one direction, and MuniLLios in another." It is stated in the Miller circles, that in his last dispatches from Zabieti, the Hero of the Peninsula. has requested from Ministers an extension of his powers, to enabie him to penetrate into France. His Lord;thip is said to have added, that he had reason to believe that the inhabitants of Bayonne and Boer deaux, upon hearing of the advance of the Spaniards, had expressed a wish rather to have an English than a Spanish force quartered upon them. Report adds, that Lord WELLINGTON took up a position on the Western Pyrenees rather than navance eastward to intercept SUCH&T, in order that he might have it in his power to carry other views into.execution. 4 mail from the Mediterranean an ived this morn ing, by which Ministers have received dispatcher, from pord WILLIAM BENTINC4.

The late Captain LAWRENCE, of the Chesapeake American frigate, was a native of Burlington, near Philadelphia, adjoining a town called Bristol—a car. cumstance which must have given rise to the report that he was a native of Basta!, in England. He was educated expressly for the Navy, at Princetown lege, in America, where he was greatly beloved by his teachers and fellow-students, and was one of the few Commanders in the American service who had the manners and education of a gentleman. It is well known that Commodore Ronwtrs has risen from the rank of a common seaman, retaining all the vices, and perhaps mat of the virtues, of that valuable class of men. Captain LAWRENCE was in London about two years since, as the bearer of dispatches from his Government. He then commanded the Hornet, which lay off the . Isle of Wight. He was then appa rently about 25 years of age, elegant in his manners, and in his person tall and athletic.—lt is but fair that a brave enemy shout have justice.
