Letteht from Rochefort, of the II th Noven.!la-r
say, that the expedition for China, under the com-
mand of Captain Philibert, only waits for a fa-
vourable wind to art sail. That for the Senegsl
is actively preparing. Other expeditions of whica
the object has not as yet been officill't• an-
nounced, but which, it is supposed, are inteadvil
to take out supplies to the Antilles, Bourbon, and
Pondicherry, prove that the Government has deter-
mined to give to the Marine as much activity as
circumstances will permit.

We have received intelligence from Lim,. by
way of Cadiz. The Royal cause is in the he.t
state. The city of Lima possesses a body of 1,00,1
tnen, to which may be added 2,000 from the Ca-
die squadron, which was drily expected. Osorio
holds in possession by military force all the province •
of La Conception, and has under his command n
corps sufficiently strong to check the progress of
the Insurgents. This intelligence was brought
to Cadiz by a convoy of four :esti+ Is, richly
laden, and having also two millions of dollars
in specie. We kar* from the same source Out
Paraguay, properly ,o called, enjoys the most per-
fect tranquillity under its own Government, which
commusitates neither with Artigas nor linen
Ayres. The arrival of the three beautiful Russian
frigates at Cadiz offers a new proof of the good
understanding that subsists between the Cabinets of
Madrid and Petersburg!).
The Duke of Richelieu is expected in Paris nn
the 23th of this month. We are assured that the'
Doke of Wellington will arrive about the same

M. Pozen di Borgo will return to Paris before
the end of this month.

LA IN E.

At one o'clock yesterday tlse King presided at a
Council of Ministers', which lasted till tivr.

A Vekil, or Charge d'Affaires from the Nabob
of Bednore, Saheb Goulaut Muideen, accompai.i-
ed by his Secretary, Meer Saheb, his Physicist!,
Mr. Ramsay, and a numerous suite, arrived at
Marseilles on the 6th of November, on boar) the
English ship Ajax, Captain Robert Tong. Ilit
Excellency will proceed to Paris, and tilence to
London, as soon as he shall have performed his qua-
rantine. Ile comes from India by the Red Sea.
Suez, and Alexandria. Since 1785 Fran; e has not
seen au Indian Prince, for it will be remembered
that it was at that period the son of the famous
Tippoo Sails landed at Marseilles. The present
Envoy is a very handsome man, and hems a PtWet!)
black beard. lie professes the religion of M
met, but is of the sect of Ali. His complexion it
that of the inhabitants of India, that is, of Firotztil
copper. ills suite is of the same. The Ste. eta'
and Physician speak several language.. His Ex-
cellency bears the weariness of his quarantine %it's
much patience. Ills manner of life is alto,;t the r
couformable to the customs of Asia; for exalopt. ,
he never sleeps until a domestic has rubbed his fret
tor a certain time.

A private letter from Brussels, !peaking of some
attests which have taken 'Place in that city, r. bites
that fil. De Kuril, brother to the first A,.le-dt -
Camp of the Prince of Orange, and the llag:stia!e
charged by the Municipal Police, had ',mei riled
on the 13th to Antwerp, and brought back anh
bias in his carriage a person who was bound. Five
gendarmes escorted the carriage. The cause as-
signed for the arrests is a conversation which took
place at a tavern, between some officers, who,
speaking of a wooden staircase, recently erected ct
the Town hall for the accommodation of the Klux.
the Princes. and the Princreses, who t% err pit snot
at the fete, said. •• I could blow it up with a pe-
tard." Two conventionskts have liven taken tido
cu.torly. one of whom is tutmeti Berard, fur not
having given information to the police authorities
of this conversation, which took place publicly
when they were present. It is said that the •
