The Brig Lodi arrived • at-IWee on the 28th of
June. It sailed from Nexandr;a on the isith-May.
It had. taken its road a, Turkish vessel laden
:with horses, 'but-has brought us no details of the
military events which' have' taken place since .the
.disembarkation of the English. General MENOLT
'had sent in triplicate all the details, by 'some Ad-
vice:„boats -which set out .a few days beforo, and
;which had not vet arrived.
On the 19th of May the French Army were still
,masters of Cairo and. Alexandria. The English had
cut the dyke' Of the Lake Madiab,.• andturned the
water in the Lake IlLeotis. By these means they
had inundated so leagues of the country round Alix-
andria, which hand considerably strengthened their
position-in Aboukir, -and L'oldered the French For-
tifications of Alexandria unassailable.
. General /VIENo.u, who was in person in that
place, was abundantly supplied with warlike stores
and provisions fdr many- yezirs.—(Monitenr,),

. ' WESEL, JUNE 29.,—Some military ,baggage,- and
several persons, employed in the Prussian Office. of
Commissary of-War, have lately arrived- at Munster.
Immediately it was reported that a_new Corps of Ob-
servation was about to be formed in the Bishoprick
of as also along the Right Bank of the
Rhine, and eonjeetures were formed respecling these
supposed arrangeinents. We may rest assured that
all such reports are without foundation. With' re_
sped} to tho Evacuation of the itleetorate of Hanover
IST, •
. by rlie Arinyunder General Kt,' E OM is no-
thing--to indicate that it will soon take place. _Every.
thing, on
.the contrary, l9ds us to believe that it will
yet make, a long stay there., However ihii may be,-it
seems to obtain credit that the PRINCE of ORANGE
will' he 'declared ELECTOR of HANOV ER, with
the con Sent of England,. and that Prussia will re-
,
ceive as. an indemnity fot the loss of its States si-
tuated on the Left Bank of the Rhine, the Arch-
bishoprick of IVlunster, and the Dutchy of 'Berg.
MESSINA, MAY 27.—On the day before'yester-
day, about noon, a French Squadron, composed of
four Ships of War, two. Frigates, a Brig, and
two Tratisports, passed the Straits of Pharos, with-
out sendinginy boats ashore. It sailed from To::hm,
and is going to Brindos; to reinforce itself with
three Neapolitan Frigates destined for the. French
service. The Squadron, after being reinforced by
• •
these ships, will sail for the Levant. The dlf- ..
ferent Ships, with the, Transports,' have on board
8000 Men, i,ichding Sailors and
*Troops. The

by other Ships and Frigates,- will make a conlp!e
ment of men of i c,oOO, of 'which -number Iz,ooo
are to be disembarked; destined no doubt to,relieve
.-t
Egypt.

The French Funds have cleclined considerably.
The Tiers Consolide is at 43.

A Lisbon Mail of the 'lst inst. arrived .thiS-morn-
int7„: terms of ttre-Tieaty-tietween:Sprtirr.-and
Portugal had not, at that date, been made public.
It appears by the last If.aaabaegh' Mail, that
Affairs are not more settled in Italy. than' in Ger..
many ; for, after it had been in agitation, to give
the States of the.Pd'a E to the •Kt No of SARDINIA,
it is now in question to unite she-Dutchies of
,Par_
ma and Placentia to the Cita/pine- 1?e-lublic.• This
'acquisition would be materially advantageous to
the. latter, because it.would unite the Milanese and
the two Legations of Bologna and If .:errara, whiCh
it now separates. The Territory of that Republic
Would then be as compad.as, possible, and .would
form one of the most powerful States of the Second
Order. We do not think, however, that these
changes will take place.. It is not natural to sup-
pose, that,. after having created. a Kingdom ex-
pressly for the. House. of PARMA, 'BONAPARTE
should think of, despoiling it of its two -Hereditary
Dutchie.s. However this may be, •the fate of Italy
will not
,be ;fixed before that of
.Ternpny.:
cannot henceforth be separated one from the other ;
and we think that a long time will still elapse, be--
fore either of those great affairs can he adjusted..
The Mail due on Wednesday is not yet arrived.

erivate Letter from Paris; received at Ham_
burgVh, states, that the First Consul, irritated at
the delaywhich the System of jriOemniiics expe-
rienced ,in consequence of the - tardy and irresolute
discussions of the Imperial Dict at Ratisbon, had
ago-Anted Count Contatzit with i his deiermina-
tion to march an Army of 45,000
.mer into_ the
heatt of the Empire, should the execution of the
plan be further postpbned.

who conspired against his 'petson and.government.
They'are still confined in irons in the fortress of

We leaTti-by Letters from Bremerlehe, that the
day after the Prussian Troops left that place, a
dreadful fire broke otit in an empty. house ; the

Of.the.whole town `was expeßed ; by the sudden
change of the wind, however, and the exertions of
the inhabitants; 'its progress was stopped,,afterhav-
ing done damage to a very eonsiderablt amount,
leaving many-families. who were in affluence in the
most distressing circumstances.

Soto ror.—This week a young Lady,- the daugh-
ter of a Foreign Of of high rank, residing at
Vauxhall; shorherself, in consequence.of the 'refusal
of her father to • consent to her marriage with an
Officer. After breakfast, she retired into a room, 'a
little armoury of her father's, the walls of which
‘Vere decorated •with swords, pistols, am like the
roard-roonis at James's, and raking a loaded pistol,
'4shot herself below the left breast, aiming at. the
heart. . She did not, however,. exaaly succeed, as
she lived- a quarter of an hour. The report attra6t-
ed the family, and surgical.assistance was obtained,
but it was all useless. Her age was sixteen, and
very beautiful.
