LONDON, MAY 20, iBoi.

Ir any thing could make'us more sensible of the
great loss which this Country has sustained by the
death of, Sir RALPH A•III{CRO'MIIT, and could at
the same time add to the degree of consolation which
his relations and his friends must derive from the ge.
neralhornage of regret and admiration that is paid to
his:memory, it mast be the manner in which those
sentiments have been cxpeessed in Parliament, and
particularly in the House of Commons by Mr. An.
DINGTON. To obtain the, eulogium; and to ince-
.,
Test. the sensibility of. the-: man whom his virtues,
his talents,.and the choice of his Sovereign, have
placed in' the highest situation, is, doubtlliSs,' after
shaving served Country faithfully, the most ho.
nourable and the most agreeable. reward 'which a
Patriot Warrior could receive. In all ages it has
been. the dignified office of Eloquence to bestow .pa
*valour the Oaken 'or
.the cypress crown, and it is
thus that those who have been most famous for
speaking, have descended to posterity with those
most celebrated for afting.

It is not, however, in this Jesped only that the
%leech 'or Mr. Aoor moiox is remArkable, and
while as a man he so well expressed the feelings of
his heart, as a, Politician he, with po less ~ability and
wisdom, confirmed the pledge which he had befors
given to this Nation and to all Europe. It was
gratifying to hear him repeat, after the "nacry
gained by our Troops in Egypt,' the same inag-
rianimods declarations Which. he made after the
triumph of our Fleet in the Baltic. To. have thus,
on two occasions, so well calculami td insure
every mind with the highest cpnrittiop

our

strength, and the greatest confidence in the fu-
ture, shewn the moderation of remainingiramot
able-within the line which, irk a 6miicilt of
felicity, he had chalked out, is to have. esc;ipeil
nourably- from the 'greatest tp ‘%',llicia a

power is exposed : it is to have ptti,ed hiin La

ally a Statesman, to have satisfied the'Colnary
lie was' such a man as England,
.and the

raoment hesitate to consider his Cause as in those
hinds, which are most proper.to give to it a desi-
• rable issue. No Foreigner can be so infatuated as not
'to see, that our Government has reached the point
best calculated to unite at home, all sentiments and all
efforts, and to inspire abroad the fear of remaining its
Enemy, and the certainty of being-able to rely on its
friendship. This impression, the effea of which
n the different- people and Cabinets of the Con-
tinent, is already to he perceived, and will daily
become more perceptible, will, we, must suppose,
pave our way to a secure and honourable Peace ;
but if the case ,should' be otherwise—if blindness
should not be enlightened by the splendour of our
tritimphs--rif obstinacy should not. be disarmed by
our moderation, the api,e.:l which Mr. Anrinic.roN
Made. to the energy. and to the constancy of his
Countrymen, will then be found not to has e been
made in vain. Every one will, have heard, his words,,
every one will treasure_them in his memory ; every
one will foster in his: heart the sentiment which
di&ated them.- Not a man will hesitate, if the
folly of our Enemies compels us so to do, to prolong
his efforts, and his sacrifices, iintil the happy moment
when we shall. obtain the reward of our exertions
on terms to which we can accede.

In a subsequent column is to be found a very
interesting Paper, the Oiciers issued by General
MENOU on the night before the battle of the 21st
of March. The Military Reader will see in it
fresh motives for admiring those talents and that
•
valour by which 'this }2than of was diseon,
C.crted.

The Hamburg?) Mail which' became due this
morning, had hot arrived when this Paper was put
to Press.

A Reinforcement is about to sail immediately for
Egypt, consisting, it is said, of about soon Men.
A Draught from the Guards was yesterday made, of
• 3O Men for that destination, and .we learn, With
peculiar satisfadion, that every Man of the' Draught
volumeered the Service. it is impossible to do
justice by words, to the gallant Spirit Of that admi-
rable ,Corps—Among the, Heroes
,of Egat, the
Guards will ever hold a distinguished place.
zzi and z. Regime,nts are, amongst, those
ordered fjr iii mediate embarkation. The whole
Reinforcement -gees out, in Ships of War. The
Squadrim that is -to convey them, is ,to consist of
three Ships of the Line,. besides Frigates, &c. un_
der the orders of Rear-Admiral PoLr... The em.
barkatjon will take place with all possible expedi-
tion. While we, however,. applaud the energy
and promptitude of GoVernment in sending thiS Re-
inforcenient to a point of suii importance, we have
to express our hop' and belief, that the fate of
Egypt is decided
.before it can sail—besides, if we
arc not misinformed, a
,Detachment left. England
two-months ago, destinid for the Reinforcement of
the British Artily in that quarter, and which must
have arrived at a.very critical period.
The Detachment of Guards ordered..for Egypt,
leave Townito-morrow.
. Colonel SPENCER commands the Detachment sent
against-Rhamania. - it consists of only zOOO men.

_We understand from goodinformatrion,-.that Ad-
cniral GANTHEAUME'S Squadron a thirci/tinle sailed
from Tardon for Egypt on the 27th ultimo. We
hopollis is adually- the case, for, reinforced .as
Lord Ks tin has been by the-Scinadron of Sir joHts,

B6ALAV WARR,FK, there can he little doubt but

that the French Armament , must he intercepted on
its passage. The Briti3l Fleet off Alexandria, in-
cluding Sir J. B. WAR.RPN'S detachment, consists
of Fifteen Ships of the Line. If GANTiIEAUME
.shOuld.escopc the vigilance" of such a Vleet, we can
only say he will have Mote than ordinary good
fortune. ;
