After the affair - of the .20th, the Enemy had. Continued to s .retreat with such rapidity, that the Allies were. unable to overtake him, excepting on the 22d, when Major-General FANE, with the 13th Light Dragoons, supported by the 3d Dra goon Guards, came up ivith the' Enemy's Rear guard at, St. Gandens,-charged and pursued them two miles, killing many, and taking about 100 prisoners.

The Letter alluded to in another part .of our Paper is not from Paris, but from BotdOkne,and is dated the 501; it is `as follows, and very par:ant frpm the lateness of its dates : " txlc have no Paris Papers, but we , have " accounts from that City up' to the evening " of the 33 ; every thing is•going on favourably— " buy the Stocks, and pay the Messenger wall." ?he reports on 'Chunge are various and contra dictory. A ridiculous story of the King of Prussia be ing made a prisoner; of insurrections in Ireland, and of the Allied Armies being surrounded. • Absurd and wicked as' these reports are, they produced the effect for which they wereljb doubt iptended.

All remonstrances made to DIVOUST on this sub jeer have been unavailing, aunt some of them he has answered in these very words, that " he most have.wine and bread for his soldiers, for whom it is his duty to provide as for his children ; that he is determined to' defend himself to the last extremity, and, if he cannot do'it other wise, to conz:.-rt linmb,ur,;lt into another Troy, tbongh he knows that lie shall have no Homea to celebrate his achievements."--Altona, March 8. It is probable,. that the GenerareAltNOT, com manding at A!ltwern, is not the Ex-Director of that name, but his brother. Thoug-h less. known, he has seen more service than the other; who,it 'he did for several years form the plans of, the campaigns, he never executed any of them hint s...lf. His brother .served, iu 179fi, as General of Brigade, under JouRDAv, shared the 'prosperity and adversityof the Ex-Director; and when the lat ter became arribnne in 1804, he was nominated a At e mbe i : of the Centr a l C omm i t t ee o f E ng i neers . We can ninch more easily'believe it of him than of the Ex-Director, that, when appointed Com mandant of Antwerp; he stole into the fortress in the dis i gnisc of a peasant, and adopted_ measures which du not seem consistent with the character Of the Ex-Director. On the 2d Feb. an Italian officer, of the name of SALA, who was taken in -arias as' a- Lieutenant i n the Austrian service, was shot at Mantua, in the presence of the wholp garrison. The most recent accounts from the coast of North Germany mention, that the Weser - was now clear of ice.• The Elbe was still full of float ing ice, but the first 'south-westerly wind would clear that river, when• it was understood that a British _flotilla of gun-boat; would move tip to assist in the siege of IJaniburgh. The 'rivers of Holland, after the late severe winter, are also cleared of ice, and commerce had been resumed with new vio-Our: The Admiralty, with that prompfitude ‘vhich does it honour, has rewarded Lieut. JAexsoN, of the Hebrus, by promoting him to the rank of a Captain in that service, to which his exertions, in common with those of his gallant Commander, Capt.PALmra, had added another sprig of laurel, by the capttne of L'Etoile, an enemy of very su perior force. We are concerned to state, that letters have been received at the Admiralty froth .Admiral FREEMANTLE and Captain. Ito WLEY, giving lam'. MatiOn of the death of• Captain BRIDGES AV. TAYLOR,- of the Apollo, by the upsetting of a boat off Brindisi, in the...A . driatic, where he bad lately caused the destruction, of the French frigate Uranie, in consequence of threatening to enter, into that itarbour to engage her. He was an ex cellent and meritorious Officer, much beloved in the service, in which he Lad held the rank of Post Captain near 12 years, though not 35 years old. Ile %Vas the vonugest brother of General - TAYOR, Secretary to the QUEEN'. - Fir a length of time a drawback or bounty of 50s. per cwt. has been allowed upon all single re fined, and 60s. upon, double refined sugars, and a drawback something less upon raw sugars. Oa the sth of last .7,113E111y the bounty on rened sugars was, by Act of Parliament, re.duced 15s. per cwt. and on the sth of May the whole of the drawback ceases. The CiiANCE.LLott of the' EY,CHEO.IJER had it in contemplation to ha ve In ought in a new Bill to continue the drawback, to encourage the export trade ; but in 'consequence of the unpre cedented high price of sugars., it is now 'deter- - mined to suffer the present Act to continne, which will occasion a total suspension of. the dra-Whack forseveralmOnths," and an additional duty of 14s. per cwt. - on raw sugars.
