He came from thence in the short space 01 fifteen days, passing through Berlin cm the 26th ult. The Dispatches which . he 'brings' from Peteriburg/ and the Baltic are, we have the satislaftion to e state; 'of a very favourable nature. l 'lrd Sr. HELENS'expeded to reach Peler;burgh by the 25th ult. The Rev. Mr. CRAUFURD also arrived yester (lV in ToWn, with Dispatches from Lord MINT°, at V ienitit. He - has brought no , public intelligence importance.

The Review takes place on Winibledon Common at ten O'clock on that day. The Dutch West India Island of St. Eusidtitt sur rendered to .flis Majesty's Forces on the' 2,5 th of '4 61 . The French having abandoned the island, the inhabitants sent a Deputation to the'Crimmand ,, ' i ng"ollicer at St. Kitt's, requesting him to take the Isl an d z u n d er t h e roteetion Of His BRITANNIC ' ' l Aitsry. The Arab Sloop was accordingly dis- V., 4 tched, with too men,. under the command of 4 , leut.C o l one l B L UNT, of the Buffs, who took pos. 6e ssirm of the place "without opposition. ..::- When the T•Avashend Packet, which brought the advice s of the Surrender of St. Eustatia, came away from Martinico; it was reported that Guada.: 47 itt had surrendered. We should be happy to be able to sari lion the belief of this happy event •in our readers at this moment, but at present it tests on no tither foundation then mere rumour. The reduction of Cuada/Gupe by 'mete strength wnuld, according to ' the best military authority, 'require from IQ to 12,000 ' Troops, a greater firce , than we have at present at our disposal.—, 't he isolattll state,' however, in which this Island is placed, by the fail of those which surrounded 'it, and which furnished it with supplies, may reduce It to suun a degree of want as necessarily to pro daee its fall. `'' 77 A , Colonel kjul'E set offon Saturday last for Ireland, z .

Of all the narks of National Gratitude which have been bestowed upon thern,, that which is calculated 11) %t highl y to exalt the Spirits,of the Soldier,. and most deeply to affed him, must doubtless be, the circumstance of his being held up to his brethren in rns, as a mo d e l f orgoo d conduct and imitation.

When we came abreast of Bornholm, the Commander. in Chief detached the following Ships to cruize off Carlscrona, - under the command of Capt. MURRAY, of , the Edgar, viz.

At the same time all the Gun.vessels, Sloops of War (except two), Bombs, Luggers, Sec. were left at' Bornholm, under the orders of Capt.' INMAN, of La Deriree. With our remaining force, consisting of the St. George (Vice_ Admiral Lord NELSON), London, Ganges, Rami lies, Defence, Defiance, , Elephant, Veteran, !Ver. rior, Polyphemus, and Bellosuz, the Amazon Fri gate, and Kee and Cruizer Sloops of War, we proceeded to Revel. On the 12th instant, •we anchored at the entrance of the Guiph of Finland, when the Kite was detached to reconnoitre the Roads of Revel. Whilst we waked her re turn, the Harpy (which we had left in Copen hagen Roads) joined the Fleet, with advice that Rear-Admiral TOTTY had passed the Sound with Four Ships of the Line, and Sixteen inferior vesseli, and that he had proceeded to join Capt. MURRAY'S Squadron off Carlscrona, which he was to command on that station, till further orders from, the Commander in Chief: The Kite - having rejoined us, we stood in for the Harbour of Revel, and; on the 14th, anchored there, about six miles distant from the town. " The same,evening Lord Nftsolv sent a Flag of Truce to the. Governor, which having had a most favourable reception, he saluted the Citadel from' his Flagship (the St -George) with fifteen guns; which was returned at sun-rise the next morning, with the same, number of guns from the Citadel. Lord NaLsot; then visited the Governor on shore, who returned the visit the following day on board the St. G esn r, We wait here impatiently for the return of Capt.

BATA - BATH) JVNT I. Tuts morning came,on the Eltaion of a Repre sntative in Parliament for this City, in the room of the late MAsT Elt of the ROLLS. The Glildhall as crowded beyond all former example. When the Cor poration were all a'ssembled, and the necessary, forms were gone through, JOHN BERKELEY BUR LAND, Esq. was proposed by Dr. iixß NGTON, and second ed by Mr. Alderman Pnw.or, and received with 'mingled tokens of applause and dissatisfaction: JOHN PALMER, Esq. was proposed by Mr. Al- derman SYmoNs, and seconded by Mr. GEORGE CROOK, attended with loud and universal shouts of applause. Mr, BURL ANT then addressed the Eleetors, say ing, that he had been invited by a respeaable part of the Body Corporate, to represent the City in Parliament—an honour which he esteemed of the first importance; but finding that a ma jority of the Corporation were inclined to serve Mr. PALMER, he thought wholly of withdrawing himself, and had signified his intention to that efftta in a Letter to the Mayor. , However, he had since been assured, that Mr. PALMER, as receiving the annual sum of three thousand pounds, in lieu of his former situation as Comptroller-General of the Post-Office, was thereby rendered incapable of sitting in Parliament, he was induced again tooter himself, and having taken the advice of two eminent Coimsel, he was now confirmed that Mr. PALmva. was not eligible ; and he apprised every individual in the Corporation, that each vote given to his oppo nent would be thrown away, he being resolved to petition Parliament, should Mr. PALMER, of which he entertained no doubt, be returned. Mr. PALMER then came forward, and said, that before he offered himself a Candidate for the si tuation he hoped ,he, was 'about to fill, he had likewise taken the 'advice of three of the Most eminent Counsel at the Bar; men whose authority . was looked to by the whole 'Kingdom, particularly in every case respeCting Parliamentary Usages; and who had all unequivocally pronounced him eligible to tinke andpossers a Seat in the House of Commons ; that the 30oot. per annum was given him for his life, as a remuneration (which he did then, and ever should consider •an inadequate• compensation), for his services to Government, ~and as such he consider ed himself perfectly independent. If honoured with the Suffrages of the Body, \ he had no fear respeCt ing it being declared by a Committee of the House, if the Hon. Gentleman brought it to that issue, that he was duly and legally the Representative of this his Native Society: . Mr, PALMER delivered this speech in a firm and colleded 'manner, and was honoured with the huizas of ,the populace in the Hall. The Eleaian then commenced, when there appeared for • JOHN PALMER ) , Esq. 20 7 - JOHN BERKILEY BUR LAND, Esq 7 being the whale . nuin' , er of . votes, excepting AB EL 'MOYS Y, Esq. and Pr. FR AS gR, who wei.e absent, t one vacancy in the Commoneouncil not yet _filled up. _ . The Mayor, H. ALwoop, Esq. then declared Mr. PALMER as duly eleaed ; and he returned thAnks to the Corporation in a few shot r, but elegant words. He was afterwards chaired from the Guild hall to the Lamb Inn (the , house of his first and steadiest friend in the accompliihing 'his great ()hied of conveying the Mails), intim. DovEi, amidst the acclamations of as great a body of his Fellow-Citizens as ever assembled, in whose hearts no man ever had n firmer, or a warmer seat, than our new Representative.
