The Mermaid schooner arrived on Saturday at

Mussy. sailed out of the Bay with a convoy of 80

again. After they had put back, au order was
given for several of the transports to proceed to Mi-

The contest for the command of the Expedition
appears to be at kngth decided in favour of the
Earl of CHATHAM. llis staff and his suite will em-
bark at Ramsgate. Other accounts state, that his
Lordship's appoiansent is strongly opposed by
Viscount CASTLEREAGH, and thut the chief
command still remains in abeyance. If the
E'cpeditien, wherever it may be sent, is no better
concerted, or its destination and means of ac-
tion are not more wisely, !natured and settled
than was that of the force lately sent to the Bal-
tic, we should do better to retain our armies at
haute. Mr. CAM a usea'seampaimur expose us noly
to expense and to ridicule. They reseials4l no-
thing of Marshal SA 74 E, cact* his reveries, and will
never entitle the present Secretary of State to coin-
ineenorate the history of his own administration,
either in prose or in verse. Even General Du-
myat's* would blush to record it, thungh his pen-
sion wee 4 to be detthleci for his exertions. After
so melancholy a display of incapacity as that re-
eciitly exhibited at Coitenburgh, Mr. CATININ•

Austria is arming, to give weight to her renton-
'Mittens ; Lid we Are taught to believe that Russia,
although probably not prepared to press her dis-
cussions to a rniture with Box•PARIM, is &lonised
by his conduct, and is seriously impressed wall the
necessity of opposing his progress. Boa arattrx,
notwithstanding the urgency et his affairs in Syrtis,

The perturb ed spirit of Naples end the Roman
Sta:es was Arse asinoutteeti in this l'.tper.—The
nsilitary exert 0416 of Austeid are of a nature that
clearly indicate the alarm and jealousy which the
caudate of 11411naraase bee excited in her councils.
The measures which she sew has in execution are
two-fold :—the ooe for organising a national key
en Inesse, by calling out the entire male population
of the country, capable of bearing anus; and •he
other for establishing, by ballist„ en army of re-
serve of tifty-two battalions, or sy,ooo ineu, to be
exercised at given periods, and to recruit the regi-
ntents of the film. These arrangements were en-
forced with such promptitude, that the contribu-
tion of Vienna to the cony of reserve, amount-
ing to 750 raeu, wan raised in a week.
The Government has declared these measures to
be purely intended for the defence of the Empire ;
but a variety of circumstancesconnected with them,
so strongly indicated an approaching rupture with
France, et the date of the lust accounts, that the
Austrian treasury bills had experienced a consider-
able depreciation, and numerous speculations had
been undertaken, in anticipation of a war.

The French Ambassador. Ausasessv, had re-
monstrated on the subject of this armament. and
delivered a letter. written by NAPOLEON, from
Bayonne. in which the latter declared his surprise
and regret that Austria should engage in so exten-
sive *system of preparation, eta period. Mos when
the situation of the Continent neither called for
nor justified such armament.—The AUSTRIAN
ESIPIRIAI answered, that a period of genc-al Iran-

sale onject of which was the preservation of peace.

Boesrmere, under the. embarrassment of his
affairs in Spain, proposed to Prussia to withdraw
a portion of his troops from thence, provided the
King atvelled to the Confederation of the Rhine.
and assembled on the Coast of the Bultic a force
.tionapetent to its defence. With some modification
the proposal lies been accepted, and seine corps
of Prussians are in motion; but the French have
not given up any of the fsrtresses, and the orders

weight to .the avowed opinion of Sir JOHN GORE,
igthat he considered Durowe's defeat as inevi-
table," than to the letter in question. A very *holt
time will pa obably relieve our anxiety on this most
interesting point; but in the interval it is impos-
sible to forget the recent defeat of the Spaniards
ou the nth of June, in their attack upon I)veoser's
.teeny, which, it seems to be admitted, is seveuteen
thousand stronz. At St. Ander° too, we find that
nine thousand Spaniard* did not venture to resit
corn of three thousand French.
