A Dutch Mail brings more prominent, but, from the dates under which it is given, we scarcely think more important in telligence. It relates to the re•organization of the French Army, which it states at 206,000 ! Yet the Royallsreasury is said to be exhausted! We cannot credit these rumours, which are prac- tically contradicted by all the other Powers of Europe reducing their Military Establishments. A fracas has taken place at Mentz of nearly as much consequence as our disturbance at Preston. Invention has tagged something to the tail of it, and swelled it into a—tub for the whale. Acco►►nts were received this day, which fully confirm the reports that the Dey of ALGIERS was preparing fur au obstinate de knee against our attack. To-day we conclude the letter of M. Foncnr, and its latter end hilly justifies what we said of its beginning. We are not one iota the wiser respecting the state of France than we were be fore it appeared, though %we are fully in posses sion of t h e plausible glo s s which the ‘Vriter can Put upon his own conduct. It is indeed a fit sequel to I.IIS lifer Still 0.6144 what compromise himself irremediably, still dealing in r•agne generalities, still keeping,• the doyr of I lope ajar, and peeping at the tuture while he 'flirts with the present, and entleavours to mystify the p►►st.

His Ronal-High ness was to hare held a Connell on Friday, Carlton-house, to receive the .Racoautte's Re port ; but this, it is supposed, will be postponed, for a few days. The circular Windsor letter says, that' the QUEEN' and Patscessas were on their way to Hampton on Tuesday, but 'returned to Windsor, upon meeting the Duke of GANERIDGE, who Mt - mimed them of the favourable change which had taken place. The Doke of CLARENCE rode out in his carriage for the first time -on Monday since iudisposi lion. His Royal Highness's birth-day Was yes tetchy celebrated at Bushey, by a and supper being given to the timestici. In the evening his Royal Highness's tradesmen illuminated their houses. Yesterday morning the Duke and Duchess or COMBIIIILAND went to Kew. The Duchrss re mained in her house there while the Duke %vent on to Hampton Court to visit the PRINCE REGENT.. The Duke returned to Kew, and accompanied the Duche,ts to London to dinner.

The Duke of K BST and suite embarked at Dover Yesterday, in the Chichester .packet, Captain itUTThtt, and sailed immediately for Calais. The Princess CILARLOTTE lots a great dislike to Camellord House, which is dull, close, and inenn vetiimit. But her Royal :Highness and the Prince Lr husband, have resolved, rather than add to the burthenkof the nation, to accept 'apartments in KensingtOn"Palitce. They are to have , those former occupied by the Princess Of YALU, to which the Duke of ICENT's will be annexed, dur ing his Royal Highness's absence on the Conti nent. Lords LIVERPOO-L and SIDMOUTII. and Mr. CANNISIG transacted busbies% yesterday tvith LOrd CAhildiftEAGH, at the Foreign Office. His Lord-, skip left town afterwards for his villa. , A very intelligent artificer has returned lately from America, to which,be went upon a hope-of finding beneficial employment. He states, that the wages of workmen arc about four shillings and six-pence a-day, English, but these are only to be had for fire months Pit a year. Lodging is much .ilearer than in' Englandi provisions not cheaper. He left numbers of English workmen waiting to obtain a passage home. BUO!kIAPARTE (says a letter of the 19th May; from St.' lit Lena) is altered very much. He is much lerukcii, become very corpulent, with a largi: jowl, exceedingly sallow, and getting. bald. He seldom dresses in uniform, and ill becomes plain clothes. When my friend saw hint, he wore a green coat (a colour he is very fond of).
