DUROC, had arrived at Petetsbuigh on the night of • the 24th May. He was presented on'the morning : of the 2 5 th to Count PAHLE N, who , presented him on the 26th to His IMPERIAL - MAJESTY. The EMFERO received him alone in his Cabinet and gave him the most favourable reception. He after wards repaired to Count PANIN, the Privy'Coon. sellor, with whom he had several conferences. Pn the 27th on 'the Parade, he himself presented to HIS IMPERIAL MAJESTY, the Officers who ae, tompanied him. In the afternoon of the same day, having taken a walk in the Gardens of the Palace,. lie met the EMPEROR. His MAJESTY caused him to be called in, led him into a retired Valley, and. ...entered into along conversation with him. • Citizen Duaoc spealisof the Imperial Guard with the greatest praise. It 'is kept on the best • rioting, and performs its mantcavrea with astonish_ ing precision. ALEXANDER I. is of a figure which enforces re. spelt, and inspires confidence. Strangers flock to Petershurgh to see the new EMPEROR. He is equally dear to the People, and to the Military. He lately paid a visit to the Fleet at Croxtiadt. As he staid late in the evening, a general uneasiness took possession of all minds. The Regiments, of their own accord,- flew .to arms,. and called loudly for their EMPEROR. The greatest union prevails in the Imperial - Fa roily. Lord ST. HELENS did not arrive at P9iersburgh, until the 29th of May. M. MARROW who i s appointe d Minister at Paris, had set off for his destination. • An Adjutant-Commander has arrived at Badajqi, , with the ne ws o f t he success obtained by Cie Spa- Army.

The Minister PINTO bad arrived at Eadajoi, furnished with full powers from the Regency of Portugal. He had offered to shut the Ports of Por. , tugatagainst the English, and had made other ad vantageous, propositions, but not such as to reach the °Wed proposed to themselves by France. and :Spain--that of obtaining in those English Provin. ces, .objeds'of Compensation for the 'French, Bit %avian, and Spanish Possessions, which treason or. the fate of \Vat has put into the power of the Eng-. lisp. - At the departure of the Adjutant-Commander, a Corps. of Email Troops, tSpOOO strong, was at .Ciudad lisderigo, and had .not yet bed engaged. jvxt 18. • ' Cardinal GONSA I Secretary of State, left.

An Officer embarked on board this vessel stated, , that this great event had taken place in the follow.; lag manner 4 t The English had taken possession.of Reseira .about the middle of the minith of April. ,They had, sent halt their Army thitherunder the Command of, ' General }Jinni-I'l , lW rt in person, ,who had matched against itabnurniab ; that General Mason bad, smirched thither with al 1 his army, and after differei,t Skirmishes of Cavalry and Advanced Guards, a ge. ! real affair took place in the •Deltn, where Gen.zrall INS ON Was completely defeated, and losti part of his Army : that however the portion of the English Army which had remained at ilboul;r, see_ lag Alex'andria destitute of Troops, had presented theinse:ves in order to carry the positions which t General Matson had, after •the affair of !the 2 t sti 'Nlareli, occupied and caused to be fortified ; that the French had, caused several mines to be sprung, which•had , greatly injured the English ; that the latter soon perceived that the •positpm of General , Vitatou was under, redoubt, . sitult red hetweed -Yort CretiN rtnd •the Roman Fortres ; thoy there.: - fore thought 'proper to tarn hack and re-occupir their po s itio n it Abaukir with a considerable loss, exposed to grape shot and the sortie of the Garrison of i s ; that these two events combined Iradforeed them to re-embark; and that they had left in she Fort of Aboukir 7 or Soo Turks of the Corps of the Captain Pada."

This' news, which bears some marks of truth, appears never.. theless to stand in , need of confirmation. The Ships which arrive in these Ports, publish agreea ble intelligence very often, in hopes of being bet ter received. Private Letters from the Continent speak of re ports in circulation that BONAPAR I T intends on the 4th July-next to change his title of Chief Consul to that of 'Legiarch, and to dispense with all caller Ministerial aid than that which his Brother JosErn can afford him.
