However, the news re teived from Amderdam, and the movement among the troops, have excited great alarm among the merchants.

In addition to this, the Englifh fquadron, which is cruifing at the mouth sof the Mettle, has been reinforced by two veEcls ; Co that it now confals of two fhips of the line and three frigates.

LONDON. TUESDAY, APRIL ra. rit-Te EWA e.--Holiday at all the NM-Mites. The overland exprefs v..hich arrived thorn India brought in:clligcnce of great importance. The letter s from Bombay come down to the .4.th of December. We this day infert an extract of a letter dati.d 27th November, from which it ap• pears that the Peifhwa, after the defeat of his troops by Holkar, intended to take refuge at Bom bay. Subfcquent advices mention his arrival on board the Herculean, and that the Government at Bombay had agreed to lupport him. A Mali ratta war is, therefore, inevitable. The Coaft and Bay Army was to take the field immediately after the Monfoon, under the command of General CA mr sut. and Colonel OAKEs. We forpea that this v ill be one of the molt difficult wars in which for a long time the Company have been engaged. This day we received Paris Journals of the Rth and inilant. Their contents are comparatively unimportant. The French Government having et:lncited its aficnifhment at a capitulation figned at the Cape of Good Hope, in the time of peace ; having publifhed the correfpondence with the Ihitith Commander who refuted to give up Goree, a limilar correfponience refpeaing Malta, and a notification, that all the Powers, whole guarantee was tlipulatcd for, in the treaty of Amiens, for the independence of that place, have xcqu'eced in the meafure, now probably waits to fee the ci ted which all this may produce on the Britith Cabinet. It is obvious that the French with to narrow the oftenfible poin:s of difpuce, and to put every thing out of view except Malta, confidered as a prom'. nent feature in the Treaty of Amiens ; and many of our contemporaries kern to take this French view of the queftion. We do not pretend to a knowledge of the precife points under difcuffion ; ' but we know that, in the face of Europe, France has given fuels caufe of provocation and alarm as to convince every perfon, who does not wilfully dole his Oyes, that the Treaty of Amiens was no Treaty of Peace i 3 this country. A Minifterial Paper of this morning prefents on 'this lubjed the following pc.ragraph 6 , Some of our contemporaries are fill weaving fine fpun fpcculations, upon the tubjed of the caufes of the prefent differences between this coun try and France, and arraigning the conduct of Minifters, becaufe it does not happen to verify their conjectures. We (hall only fay in anfwer, that no real information has yet tranfpired upon the fubjed, and that it is but common juftice to wait with candour and patience, till the conclufion of the Negotiation enables Minifters to lay the re fait, and the documents relating to it before the public ; when we have no doubt, that their conduct will not only give the lie to all the conjectural er rors with which they are charged, but will alfo be found perfectly juftifiable, and highly honourable themfelves and to the country." The French Five per cents. have fallen a little —on the 6th they were 55 f. 7o c. on the 7:1154 and on the Bth 541. This morning a Mail arrived alfo from Ham burgh and one from Holland. Our letters from Hamburgh are (tient refpeEling any new demand by the Frcncll Refident about another publication, or of any extraordinary convocation of the Senate: the report, therefore, from Yarmouth, mentioned yeflerday, probably originated, as we firll furpeEt ed, from the Sitting on the French Mandell°. On this fubjeft, our Correfpondent informs us, that when Sir GEORGE RUMBOLD, our Charge d'ATaires at Hamburgh, was applied to by the Senate refpeding that Manifetto, he replied that certainly he would not objeft to the publication, only he willted it to be underitood, that if our Court thould with to have recourfe to a fimilar mode of publication, it mull ado be inferted en. tire.
