THE regular intercourse now carried on with France, has put us in possession of the Paris Paper; to the tBth inst: which reached us Yesterday even. ing by Express. They bring us but one important Article : a Letter from the Military Chief of the French Army of the East, which, though from the same place, and of the same date as the Let_. ter of LE ROY, contains subsequent and very in teresting intelligence, and supplies, in some degree, the chasm in the accounts of the Maritime Prefeet, between the 13th and the 16th ult. It informs tis, 'that on the morning of. the isth, the English at:. tacked the Fort of Aboukir, a measure which we yesterday anticipated, but gives no account of the result of the attack. The rapid manner in which the Writer proceeds to mention the strength .of Alexandria, would lead to the supposition, that he meant to console the Republic for the loss of one Fot t,. by. the probability of preserving the other. Reviewing the whole of the Intelligence received. - during the last two ,days from Egypt by the way of France, it seems evident, by the 9 - &:tifqsion of ..•.530 • the Enemy themselves, that our r As!roopi,s unothat day pushed forward as far as thertould go, that is to say, their right had extended 'itself to Alexan dria, their'frort had pushed on as far as that branch: of the Nile which serves as a Canal to that City, and' their left had advanced far into the neck of ;and- which . separates that Canal from . the Lake Sfaclii. It is probable that' Sir RALPH Aunt caot,tv? would have immediately :endeavoured to fortify .himself on that narrow ground, and to con. centrate his Troops there, in order to make head against` the main body of MENOU with Only part of his force, while the other would remain before Alexandria. Thus the small Army of SirßALrit appears to us to have been already divided into two bodies, the one of them for siege, the other for ob servation`: and, as is always the case in ?lath situa tions, every thing must depend ore the success with which the_ latter will be able to oppose the French Corps that may endeavour to relieve Alexandria. It gives us considerable confidence on this head, to,see that although the English Fleet had from the Ist of March threatened to disembark, and although it had as early as the Bth carried this into execution, General ME army had on the 16th made no move ment forward, although all the Forces at his disposal, had, as early as the it th, been colleied at Rahma ;lia. This iiiaaivity proves to us one of two things, either that MENou was greatly inferior in strength, or that our Troops . had effeEled a disembarkation at iomeTother point, which had suspended the movelbents hnd divided the Forces of the Fre - neh General. We have no doubt that both these cases- may he true at once, and we are led to believe so with respea to the second, by observing, that the Letter of LE ROY, who would certainly have exaggerated the number of men opposed to them, does not state it at more than 12,cm. Now, as we know that Sir RALPH ABERCROMBY had a greater number than this, we are led to believe that he had disem barked very little more than the half of his Troops at Aboukir, and had, landed the rest on.the other side of the -Delta. This situation of affairsNe repeat it, which would'be improved in a still more decidive manner by the smalleSt co-operation on the side of Suez, or on the side of El-Aristh, is calcu lated, in concurrence with the prophetic and melan choly style of the Moniteur, to inspire us with the most confident hope's. • We this morning heard, from what we consider 'as very respeaable authority, that private ac counts received yesterday from Parisi intimate that Sir RALPH ABERCROMBY had been received with such favour, by the Native Powers of Egypt . , and had been so successful against the French, that at Paris they Considered the question ... rappening Egypt as very nearly. settled. 01 ) 3 -5 h r. ,{lll7 .HIS MAJESTY yesterday inornitig, rode on horse back to:Kew-Palace, accompanied by, L thePnixo. of WALES, PRINCE ADOLPHUS, and the DUKES of Kirti- and CUMBERLAND ; the KING was attended by Generals GWYNNE and MANNERS, Equerries in waiting.
