" We arrived here lea night from Alexandria, after a patrage of fixteen days. Several tranfporta came there in the month of January, for the put.- pole of taking away the troops; but it was not until the beginning of February that there veffels were ordered to be in readinefs to receive them.— On the 2 tft of that month, all the tick of the dif ferent regiments were fent on board the Duchefs of Rutland tranfporty which was made an hofpital !nip. The embarkation of the Tea of the troops took place between the 'Rand the 12th of March. " Our departure was delayed, I believe, princi pally by certain arrangements which General Srawaar had been making with the Turks and the Mamelukes. The General's Aid-duCamp went to Cairo, in order to fettle for all the ordnance, and returned without bringing the bufinefs to a conclufion. The Turks were required to give the rum of ioo,oool. which was one half lets than the real value of it. Before we failed, however, two TurkithOfficers came to Alexandria, and agreed to purchafe the ordnance. In the middle of February, the General went to the camp of the Mamelukes, about fifteen miles beyond Damanhour, where he found them in the moll wretched condition that can be imagined. They were in want of money, tents, and almoft every other neceffary. Befides this the moll violent diffentions tidied between their Beys, of whom there were three at the time in the camp, who would not fpeak to each other. But the General, by his addrefs and conciliating manners, reconciled, and made them good friends, before he left the place. One of theft, Mahommed Alphy Bey, expreffed a ftrong with to go to Eng land ; and for that purpofe he came to Alexandria a few days after, accompanied by twelve Mame lukes ; he embarked on board a Ragufan veffel, and is arrived here with the fleet. It is raid he means to folicit the proteftion of his BILITTaII 10 Martyry. He is the richeß of all the Beys, but not the Shia J Bella. or Chief Bey. " Another difficulty fill remained to be fettled before we took our departure. It was difcovered that the Turks had a long lift of unfortunate inha bitants at Alexandria, who were to fall vielims to their rapacity and revenge. I was myfelf informed of this circumtlance, by a C.briftian who had re ceived a private intimation to fly from the place. General Srawarr, however, before he failed, en tered into fome Ilipulations with the Pacba, for the purpofe of enfuring the fafety of the inhabitants. " Oa the i ith of March, the General embarked on board the Anion, accompained by the Pacba, the Pedrona Bey, the Captain Pacha, &e. and was fanned by all the Turkith forts, and men of war. The falute was immediately returned by the Eng ha, and repeated the next day, after the fleet had trotted the bar. The following is a lift of all the (hips which failed from Alexandria on the tath, together with the number of men in each, and the regiments they belong to: The Anton, General Stewart and Stet The Narcif Ns, Deputy Adjutant-General Men.

Comniffariate. Wattewille's regiment too Lord Eldon do. do. " Betides the above, there was the (tip in which the Bey Alphy failed, and a Turkith nail, that was made a peft.thip, in cafe the plague thould break out among any of the troops. Before we failed, two perfons on board the Janus tranfport, in which were 220 of Wattewille'sregiment caught the plague, as did afro one perfon in th e Major, which bad fifty men on board. Tbefe veffels were confequendy left behind, and Mr. Wsaa, the tillant-infpedor, volunteered his fervices to re main with them until the difeafe is at an end. For a confiderable time before we embarked, very few cafes of the plague occurred at Alexandria. The only Officers who caught it this year were, Capt. Gairow, of the Royal Artillery, and Mr. Dear, of the loth regiment of foot. The former unfor tunately fella vielim to it in the beginning of Fe bruary, and died very much regretted by all who knew him. Mr. Deer recovered. Although no cafe of plague has occurred throughout the whole of the fleet that failed from Egypt. yet the !hips that remain here are to perform quarantine for 3 5 days. This unufual length of time is, I am told, owing to letters received from Naples and Meffir.a, complaining of the want of (friends of the Maltefe with reipell to quarantine. Of the whole army that has arrived at this place. there are but 3 t men in the hofpital-thip. and only one of there is confined to his bed. The reR are al moft well. " The dill and Wattewille's regiment are to remain here. It is raid, the others are deftined for England and Gibraltar. The Turks are now be ginning to difcipline their foldiers after the Englia; manner. Captain Harr,, of the engineer depart ment, has been left behind with them in Egypt; and Major Mrssrr. General Svawatr's Aid-du- Camp, is (ill them arranging feth Whirs as mei i l kit tank ttird." FRANCE. • PARIS, MAY it. On the 7th of this month the Mars failed from Havre for Cape Francois, having on board land troops.

Various espreftes had been received in the morn. iug by people interefted in the funds, and the con fequence was, a confiderable fall in the price be• fore Lord HAWltaillUltelt Communication. It was obterved by Come, when the letter was made public, that his Lordihip did not (late the negoci ation to be abfolutely at an end, or that the French Government had peremptorily refuted to accede to oar ffkiestess;but only that Lord WHIT WOITII bad received pafports, and was to quit Pa• ris on Thurfday, fo that it was probable that tha French Government, having a Imuperitastie, might agree to the terms, and detain Lord Wnirwoara, This was for a while the fpeculation on Saturday. and on it the funds role at firil two per cent. This kind of rationing, however, did not long influence the peke, which fell to ai l for the 3 per cents. before the clots of the market. If there were appearances of eireumllances of any kind to induce a polfible hope of accommoda tion at the fir it moment of announcing the inteo& ed departure of Lord Wntrwortis from Paris, fubfequent events have (hews the hope was fallacious. It is now afcersained that Lord Wntewoaen received the difpatch of NE/lifters by Mr. Drives. eta at one o'clock on Monday lall, bat owing to the accident which befel the modern Phaeton.

Lion of the Intiteststa had been made. In thirty. fix hours he requetled a final decilion. or his or ders were to quit Paris at the expiration of that time, which would be on Wednefday night. On that evening Lord WIIITWOITI4 received intima tion from the Miniller for Foreign Affairs, that the Oust Comes's. meant, on the following morning, to refer•the point to his Council — They deliberated till Tburfday afternoon, when they decided for Waa. This was merely an expe dient to gain a day's delay. and probably to take off from the Cis iv Corm. fomething of the odium of the renewal of the War. for it is not at all pro. table that the Council would venture to decide otherwife than as Bonaparte's will pointed. The Council to which Bomar/LILTS referred the queftion confuted only of a few of his frteads. Josue Dovetails and Tacistaann were decidedly for 10
