General THIEL- Ira's is at _Tom nay with 6000- men. Wesel is nearly starved out.

The Namur (flag-ship) and all the other men of war saluted on the occasion. The Royal Visitors landed about six o'clock at the. Com Missioner's Stairs, in the Dock-Yard (where the Royal Standard - Was hoisted), and immediately proceeded to the house of Rear Admiral Sir Tao- MAS WiILIAMS, the Port Admiral, vittendei by Comniissioner Lona, and the principal Officers of the Yard.

It appears by the accounts from the French capital, that lin farther news had arrived from the, armies; and some imeasiness had bceu produced by thi's unexpected silence. We are 'assured, thNt the most extensive atAist anCe. is about to be afforded to the RoyaNtf in 'the South of France; and that an order has been given for not less than 130,000 stahtl of arms and proportionate aceontrementS to be sent to Bout'- deaux with all possible expedition, The.comillUnientions with his Majesty the King of I.:att:SCF, continue to be freqhent from various parts of France, and even from .I.i.mt *ltour had stated, that lALIAYRANr3 himself bad come over to this countr ; hut die fact is not So. • A relation of his arried t few days ago, the ob ject of Nr,o.se mission was, of course, kept secret.' It has been stated that Louts XVIII. was going to Bourdeaux to be crowned as King : this, we. know, not tie ; nor can a King of France be crowned but at Rheinis, according to the old laws of the monarchy. There is no further positive militvy or political intelligence frOmn the SoUth-so; Fria -e.

Reports were yesterday circulated of SoULT's ope l i defei:tion. We believe them to' be ground less. They mar, perhaps bare, arisen from the circumstance, that One of Ills Aids-de-Camp, • who was taken prisoner in the battle of Utiles, had. arrived, in town. He was immediately libe rated by Lord WriLi.msG-rozT, on repairing to bead 7 ginarters,'.and making it appear to his Lordship that he was a Dutchman. This Officer stares, that the Conscripts fouOrt with grett courage until they were thrown in disordqr, when.several regiinehts, us with one accord, threwaway their arms, and_dis persed in every direction. No less sthan 12,000 men fetorned to their homes in this way and about 0000 more - were either killed, wounded, or taken prisoners in-the ; - so that coULT . s army was diminished, tytcr . the battle, at the lowest calculation, 18,000 amen. Should StielisT have joined SduLT, as lie is itniposci 'to have done, their united armies will not exceed 40,000 men. We understand a Royal earria, e; and tour horses, is to proceed to Harwich, to conduct the Michas of OLDENstntou to London. NAVAL NEWS.
