LXITER TEE SECQSD. SIR, The person who , new:,addresseS you,. for' the se cond time, knows you only. by your.good atiions, and lay the great example you have so often afforded to your Countrymen. Saturday .yOu were. called Upon • fa - piimote 2 i tab seziption for the pUrpose of ereEting some distill gnlshed Naval Monument in honour of the glorious NEL SON. It may now be useful to point out the, manner in which this can' bi effe6ted , with the itAitestliesSible magnificence, and at the least ex pence: Such a Monurnent ITl3)i be obtained i‘ it is already prepared, and requires only the expence of 'being removed and, set up. If it were possible to combine 'together the results of antient genius and modern energy to perpetuate the name of 'NELSON, by the most appropriate and most stupendous effbrt of human art, it could not' be more happily effected than by bringing to this Country , the Obelisk at Alexandria, Which lies so near the scene of his great Vi6tol7 at Aboukir, and which ..to the end of ages, &f ling, the attaCks of thne; would remain unaltered It was moved by the English Troops • tiler the conquest of Egypt, and would now have lien: in England' had it not been for• circumstances which 1 dOnot now wish to particularize. .So little , difficulty, attends the undertaking, that our implacable Enemy, at this moment, aware of the facility of its removal, is' in constant apprehtli sion of its being-added to tha.TrOphies we 'Already possess from that Country. It - is the intention of the French to convey - it to. Paris whenever an op plrttinity allows then 'the free passage , of the seas . IL :any doubt'should remain as to the possibility. of bringing it to this .Country,: although my own name shall not appear,. I will, if 'called upon, state the plan. 13y which it „can •be effeded, and name the Officer who is capable of patting that plan in exel cution; and who would volunteer'his services.: • The' Obelisk alluded to needs no description. It might be ereaed on a pedestal of the same mate; rials, and to preserve that simplicity which ever cha 'ra6krizes the sublime, Otani& have no other Inserip tion than the name of NELSON on one side,. and on., 34 other these three words :-...-ABOUNAR - ---COPEN-; tuunSl-.7.IIIIE7rALGAR.

LONDON, 7:TEMA Y, NOVEMIIRR 12, 1895. LAtsr night we received some further Paris Papers to the 3d inaant, and the Batarian State Gazette of the 6th. A trifling skirmish is mentioned to have takers place on the Inn, but the main body of the yrerieh Army were not,. according to the French Letters from Angsburgh, dated the 25th nit,: expeaed to arrive on the Inn before the 27th or 28th ult - The nrunber of French Troops parching thither is stated, in the same Utters, at 96,000„wbich would be far inferior to the Combined Auptrian and . Russian Army after the second column of Russians had joined.— It appears certain that the Austrians were in consi. *derable force in the Tyrol. Marshal Soma had nurelted 'to the Inn, in consequence of which the Austrian General, WOLFSKIEJ, had again advineed towards Leutkireh, and had received reinforcements from the Tyrol. Austrian Troops had also arrived in the DiStria of Memtningen. When we rind that the Austrians arc in such' force m those quarters, notwithstanding the boasted victories of the French, - we entertain very little fear of any additional French Force being detached to Italy upon the rear of the Archduke CHARIES ; nor do :we see much ground, tq fear for the result of the Campaign, as the Aus. trims and Russians were evidently acting upon a Cautions defensive systcin, which they would donht , teas continue for a few days, until their united force became decidedly superior to that of the Enemy. Le',ten from Milan sulte that the Austrians in Italy were nontinually retreating before the French ,ArtnY, but.theroran he no doubt if the French had obtained any success in thrlt Country subsequent to the trifling one the Bridge of_ Verona, it would Lave been a subjett of a triumphant Bulletin. The utrnolt cordiality sub;,isted' at Berlin between the E.mrzaon of itussze and the K ING o f patis3 l A. The Prussian Armies were continuing their march L I Lower Saxony and Franconia, and another Prussian Army was in :Westphalia, the Head-quar ters of which wire to be established at Munster. Tho French Funds nave alien near three per cent. on the 2d they were at CO. 50, • Wi have little to ad& to the gratifying intelligenco which we yesterday laid before our ReaCiers, except to state, that the four French Prizes are arrived barely at Plymouth. From the circumstance of the French Squadron having been- seen so far to the • • • • Northward, there can be no doubt hut' ihat their threat to Cadii viai cutoff, or that a4l idea of farther combinel operatimis werc.given up on the dOStrUC: of tifs major tart of !hc flecit.'

No Returns have yet , been i reeeivcd of the number of . Prisoners taken in 'the late Engagethenis, but fratow ing the number of men that are in general on board 1 4 :reach and Spanish Ships of the lane, they- cannot be estimated at less' than 1 5 or 1 . 6,600 "Men, and . these Werecer6inly, the best Sailors in the French and Spanish NaVy ; they had been at sea for a . sfderable time, and had seen some service.
