LONDON, MAY 26, !801.

WE last night received Paris Papers to the
23d instant. They bring us no intelligence of
importance, though the length of time which
has elapsed since the last arrival from Paris
is more considerable than we have lately been ac-
customed to wait. The new KING of ETRURIA
arrived at Pau on the Bth of May, on his journey to
Paris.

The indefatigable French Paper, the journal des
beim:etas de la Patrie, has again defeated us in
Egypt, in mote than one Mtion.. It is in this
Paper only, however, that we see any mentiou of
Egypt. The Monitear does not venture any such
assertion, but confines itself to a total silence on
the subjeet.

We find nothing relative to the progress of the
Troops marching against Portugal. 111. D'ARANIo,
the Portuguese Ambassador to the French Govern-
ment, is stated to have arrived at L'Orient, with
Proposals for Peace.

The KING, QUEEN and PRlNcEssrs,,accompa-
nied by the DUKE of KENT, and Pitt Nev. Avot...
Iglus, _rode out yesterday morning in Richmond
Gardens.
The PRINCE of WALES, yesterday visited their
MAjEstlES'at Kew Palace.
„„
SLATER, one of His Majesty's Messengers,
arrived at Lord HAwKEsumtv's Office yesterday,
with Dispatches from the Court cf Berlin.
Foutbeautift:l pieces of Brass Cannon, taken from
the Danes, at Copenhagen, have been presented to
EarlSrEricatt, by Lord NEksort.
The Royal Invalid Regiment marched into -the
Tower yesterday, to relieve the First Battalion of
the Guards.

Yesterday morning the 7th Regiment of Dragoon
• • Guards was reviewed by His Royal Highness the
MIK!: of YoRK, on the flat lying between Wans-
tead.House and Forest Gate, Epping Forest. After
they had gone through their several mmiceuvres, a
draught was made from the Regiment for ;laud ser_
vice for Egypt, as was generally, understood. His
Royal Highness was on the ground about nine, and
quitted it about two.
•• • GEORGE ABERCROMBY, Esq. Advocate, mar_
rigid to a daughter of the Right Hon. HE DUN-
AS, 'is the eldest son of Lieutenant-General Sir
RALPH Aaracttomay, K. B. and- M. P. and it
is a perfeft mistake-which appeared in the Papers,
in saying,' that he was blind. •
Lady Au ERCKOMBY, we are truly concerned to
learn, has been
.most seriously ill ever since she
heard of the fate of her much-loved husband. Her
apprehensions indeed were so strong before the fatal
intelligence arrived, and had so powerful an effe6l
upon her, that she kept her room, and evemher bed,
'and could admit of no consolation that friendship
or airation could dielate.
The fate of General At3F.RCROMIIY affords full
scope for the exertion of patriotic Genius, and we
hope to see the talents of our Countrymen employed
in the noble task of celebrating the triumph of de-
parted heroism.. The President of the Royal Aca.
decoy_ gained so much honour by his Pinure of
WoLrtin the glorious aft of dying for leis Coun.
try, that we shall be glad to see a companion to
that Pk-lure from the same skilful hand. No other
Artist of the present day is better qualified to dis-
pose of figures in extensive groups. The battle in
• which the gallant -An MC kOMESY received the fatal
nound, presents a subjeEt of the most striking and
interesting kind;
,the impetuosity of the French,
:aid the triumphant steadiness of the English, dired-
.ed by the .judgment, and animated by the example
'of their Leader, provide an ample field for the
powers of the Pencil ; and study we have reason
to expeCt that British Genius will zealously exert
itself in the attempt to do justice to British Va-
lour.

-It was yesterday reported, that .accounts have
.bren received in Towti from LordWl I.; TAM BEN-
TINCIC at Venice, stating that-;t report had been
riceived there, which was generally believed, of
SiTJOHN BO R L A3ll WARR h 1.4 having fallen in with
Admiral GANTH EAU M 'S Squadron, of which, after
a running fight, four sail of the line were captured.
The Marquis of SALISBURY passed last week
some days at Yaxley, where his
,Regiment,

more thhn 60oa French and Dutch Prisoners. ',The-
Officers of the Garrison, antithe principal inha-
bitants of Stilton andits- vicinity, were entertained
by the, Noble Marquis for three days at the Bell
