OUR Letter from Dover this morning states, that
Mr..BASICICO, the Messenger, landed at Deal yes-
terday afternoon. It further adds, that it was be-
&wed that he brought over intelligence of a very
pacific nature, as on Order was sent off to
:;top the further -sailing of the Transports with
Troops. The latter part Of the Letter, it is obvious,
cannot be true/ and we are very much inclined to
doubt the former part cf it, 'for otlr Letter from Deal
is rrfe6tly silent' upon the subje& ; and we Nye not
?heard of his' having reached Town, which he must
have done if he had arrived at Deal yesterday after-
,
noon.

WE have this day made some furtber extraCts
from the French Papers. _Among other articles will
be found a Proclamation from General LAURISTQN
to the People
_of Ragusa. It is rettete,x4l34l34.oJost
violent inveaives against the Russians, and Vtl6 are
rather surprised that it should have been inserted in
the French Papers after the signature of the Treaty
of Peace.

. .
THE attempts made in the French Papers to at-
tribute the failure of the Negotiation solely to the
indisposition of Mr. Fox, cannot makp. any impres-
sion on this. Conntry, though it may-produce_.some
ettei tipon the peOple. of France,-10-6 are arrndst
proverbially ignorant with respe6t.to the 1,41.-Vi and
ccinstittition of this Country. If they were not,
they never could be induced to believe, that because
the. Correspondence relative to the Negotiation*
passes -.of cot-ft-se through. the Office of Secretary of
Suite for Foreign Affairs, that therefore Mr. Fox,
"v.-hen be, was in health, bad the sole management
of the Negotiationi and that it was only in con-
s-ru4nce of that flight Honourable; Gentleman's
idisposit igh that tOrd PitENVILLE, Who • is at_the
-bead of the .4lministration, had an • opportunity of
interfering, and taking a part in the discvssions. It
v.,31i1d be a waste of time seriously to comment upon
52uch gross absurdity; but BOA APARTE did not choose
to let- his subjetas know that their hopes of Peace
had been frustrated by his extravagant' pretensions
and unreasonable demands ; he, therefore,' hit Upon
the notable expedient ofgttributing the continuance
War to Mr.' Fox's 'illness.

ON Wednesday evening Admiral STERLING sailed
from Plymouth, with the Sampson, of 64 guns, the
L'rcvoyante, of 38 guns, the Sir Stephen LushingtOn
and Earl* Spencer East 4tdiamen, at,(Pf+r Sore
&tips, laden with Supplies, for the 'di e. of Good
Hope. General GAEL, who is to command.at the
Cape, sailed in the Sarapson.

The account of Mr. Fox to-day is still favourable,
and there is a full- expeaation, on the part of his
o,iendS, that more: dependence can= now be placed on
change of air. than on any thing; that . medicine can
do in" the present iinprovei.l state elhis•health.

Armed Brigs ready for sea in the Maars Diep, and

The writer adda, ."-From every information that has
reached me, it 'appears that; upon the first intern-
gent:e of a change in the G-overnment, such -symp,-
totns of a-disposition to mutiny were. 'manifested_
among the Seamen,, that it was deeined.expedient
to: pay • ttern Off, and 'they 'are now re-entering.
This:expedient was °of Course resorted to with a
view; to exclude the discontented, and to soled the
pliant. - Admiral.DE WINTER is come down as Ad-

..otter, it seems: pretty evident that the' cOndua of
