THE BRITISH PRESS. t)ON, TuEst) Auotir 5. The E trl of Lau'l►a oA I. Jeparture from Len don has been scatevly announced, before we hear of his arrival in France. He sailed with his smite from the Downs, at five ~'clock on Sunday morning, in the Glyds, and landed bt ten o'clock the same morn ing at Calais. His Lordship has probably reached Paris before this time, to which city be is seem panied by Professor Duo A LD STOAUT, Mt. Cr A at. is GODDAito, who brought over the passports for him. and Mr. BASILBASnI.teo. the principal Messenger in the correspondence which has ►itherto subsisted be tween the two Governments. We adhere to the opinion which we gave yesterday respelling the ad vanced state of the negotiation. The material points, we assert, are already settled aad arranged. When Mr. GOOD* ID landed at DOUR. en Frisby last, he expressed on the beech a maddest expect- ation. that upon his return to France he should carry back a treaty of peace. So full of hope are the people of Dover, that they are fitting out packets, for the conveyance of passengers to France. is contemplation of an immediate peace ; and the people of Calais. according to report. are speculating, with not less confidence. upon that event. In London, we look, in all cases of political hopes and fears. to the funds ; and there too. every thing wears a pacific appearance. The Onisiess, ) estesday, was so high as 121. and left off at 121 The Consols for the opening closed at 66. Upon the terms of the Treaty. no Editor is competent to spreak with any remissions to precision. Vanity and presumption have not, however. been backward in eff , rts to sur ply the want of real information. — It is said, that we are to retain Idaho. and that bo• aaaaa a has nu objettion to restore ll.u%over for an equivr.lent. Save: al points, however. it is sdJeJ, respc4;ing oar commeice and navy. still resesaiu for Massie*. thiellottara.'ara wits content to leave 441018.;° ow Possession we sin readily believe. Its ' ettilM to us and to 'him is greatly 'reduced sinrc the Itime of the Treaty of Amiens. Ti was then an Ad vanced post in out hands - betweett France and her designs upon 'furkey, Egypt, and the East Indies, In Malta, we had not only a safe dcput, but we had , the start of the enemy in all her piing and enter 's** on the side of the Levant. We no ?lager possess that advantage in its original extent. By her acquisition c t the ports of Naples, of the Mouths of the C.w.o.°, an event which may be now consi dered certain, and of a toe ring on the western shore of the Adriatic, France has thrown Malta bellied her t Mahe has therefore ceased, in some measure, to be what Lord Msi.vitta described it in his speech in the H •use of Commons► upon the Treaty of Amiens, " a great watch tower, affording safety and shelter to our navy in the Mediter ranean, and the means of discovering and pre renting the operatidns of the enemy in that quai -1 ter." As to Hanover, in its present plundered and impoverished state, we know not how to put a price upon it. We question whether it would not be pro deace and economy in France, to give it hack to us, to enrich and cultivate, aware tli.: :,:.c :43 t . - run it when she pleases, and gather the harvest which the genial warmth and protection of Great Beitain shaft have matured.—But France has al ready received an equivalent for Hanover. She bas sold it to Prussia, for Anspach and Bareuth, and we do not believe that these territories will be given back to Prussia. It is for Prus sia, Men. that we are to find an equivalent.— She meld be probably satisfied with Swedish Po ' lllMenlit, but how shall we indemnify our ally, the sabot King of Swsoetv, for this surrender !—Of the sacrifices of maritime or commercial rights which may be demanded of os, we have not heard even a conjecture. We can only say, that if Bo nA, s ave means to make peace in the spirit of peace, be will demand no terms injurious to our honour, or destructive of our naval superiority. To be permanent, it must be a peace worthy of a nation, all-powerful upon the Continent, treat ing with a nation, all-powerful upon the Ckeso. BWIAPARTt knew, and often declared, that England world not keep the peace of Amiens. We shall know from the terms, whether he wishes that the peace of Paris shall be more than a short-lived truce. Whether Mr. Fox will live to see that treaty concluded, which is now so far advanced under his auspices, is snore than we can promise. He may linger for a time; but we say, with unfeigned regret, that there are ao hopes of his recovery. Some extratts from the New York Papers, to the 29th of June, which we received yesterday. are given in our preceding columns. One of them is a letter from Mr. 0601111, the owner of the Loarwitr, the principal vessel in MIR AKSA'S espedition. It clnfirms us in the opinion which we have always entertained reveling that enterprise. The capture of two of his schooners is certain, but it appears to hare been a trivial loss. They carried only 60 men. It is stated in these Papers, that the four French frigates, which put into Porto Rico, have sailed in pur.eit of MIRAWBA. Sangaine hopes, however, appear to have been entertained, that this adventurer would receive the support of the English vessels in the Caribbean sea. The Nina& cutter, of 14 guns, is arrived at Ply mouth, with dispatches from Reac•Admiral Cocos sans ; but we have Rot beard that they contain any intelligence of importance. It is suppased, that the Orient squadron will attempt to put to sea the first favourable oppor tunity. At pmeat it is closely blockaded by Com modore HOOD. On Thursday night, the Spanish lugger La lama lapranza, of eight gang, attired at Ply mouth, cut out from a port in Spain in the most gallant manner, from under the fire of a battery of mess A-maunders, by the boats manned and armed of the liiisizAty gun-brig, 14 guns, arid the Capoyt, 16 guns, Limit.

After the boats' crews had secured the Spani.h lugger, the crews, seconded by the fire of the two brigs. bravely landed, s•ermed the batteries. drove out the guard, spiked the cannon, and tumbled them over the rocks into the sea! All this hominess was pet formed with the cool intrepidity of British seamen, without any material loss on our side.
