, •LO J. Ar, JUNE 2., r8or:

WE yesterday stated the arrival of a Messenger
110. m Petersburgh. He came from thence in the
short space 01 fifteen days, passing through Berlin
cm the 26th ult. The Dispatches which. he 'brings'
from Peteriburg/ and the Baltic are, we have the
satislaftion to estate; 'of a very favourable nature.
l'lrd Sr. HELENS'expeded to reach Peler;burgh by
the 25th ult.

The Rev. Mr. CRAUFURD also arrived yester-
(lV in ToWn, with Dispatches from Lord MINT°,
at Vienitit. He-has brought no, public intelligence
importance.

Friday next is the day appointed by,His Royal
.
highness the PRINCi of WALES,. for the,Review
of the Light Horse Volunteers of London and West..
eolsti.r, commanded 'by Colonel HER,xtes. The
Review takes place on Winibledon Common at ten
O'clock on that day.
The Dutch West India Island of St. Eusidtitt sur-
rendered to .flis Majesty's Forces on the' 2,5 th of
'461. The French having abandoned the island,
the inhabitants sent a Deputation to the'Crimmand-
,, ' ing"ollicer at St. Kitt's, requesting him to take the
Islandz under the roteetion Of His BRITANNIC
' 'lAitsry. The Arab Sloop was accordingly dis-
V.,4tched, with too men,. under the command of
4,leut.Colonel BLUNT, of the Buffs, who took pos.
6essirm of the place "without opposition.

When the T•Avashend Packet, which brought the
advices of the Surrender of St. Eustatia, came
away from Martinico; it was reported that Guada.:
47itt had surrendered. We should be happy to
be able to sari lion the belief of this happy event
•in our readers at this moment, but at present it
tests on no tither foundation then mere rumour.
The reduction of Cuada/Gupe by 'mete strength
wnuld, according to ' the best military authority,
'require from IQ to 12,000 ' Troops, a greater
firce , than we have at present at our disposal.—,
't he isolattll state,' however, in which this Island
is placed, by the fail of those which surrounded 'it,
and which furnished it with supplies, may reduce
It to suun a degree of want as necessarily to pro-
daee its fall.
`''77A, Colonel kjul'E set offon Saturday last for Ireland,

Sit WILLI4M IVltAnows, the Commander in
Chief of Ireland, ha's not. yet arrived i,n Dublin,
but is expeaed' in a few days. General Duser.s, ..

We , un&rstand there I's to be no India Budget.
Ihisyear, in consequence of which the Mass of
.131 India Accounts-is printed for the iii4)ettion of
Inc Members of the House of Cottlmons: '
Among all the • . Patriotic motives Which must
animate obr Troops in Egypt,
,nothing should
more powerfully stimulate their courage, ' and sup.
I)ort'their constancy, than a knowledge of the Ad.
Illiration which their efforts excite, and of the
,er•tlinsiasm which their successes inspire at home.
Of all the narks of National Gratitude which have
been bestowed upon thern,, that which is calculated
11)%t highly to exalt the Spirits,of the Soldier,. and
most deeply to affed him, must doubtless be, the
circumstance of his being held up to his brethren in
rns, as a model forgood conduct and imitation. His
'Val Iligittlet the 'Dbitr. of yoxii. has sent Orders
t° all the RegiMents. in the Artny, that the Thanks
voted, by
the
two Houses', of Parliament to the
rune-e-1,(4 Egypt, should be .inserted in ,the Regi-
kini.O,ra' Orders, and read at the Head of every Re:.
jj,Teut by the Commanding Officer. Thus it is
to4r this Pit Irma suffers no opportunity whatever
ci'eseaPe him of pursuing with zeal, and,of effica-
f.uu_slY. promoting the Honour and the interests of
.118 country and his KING. A very considerable
a,clvantage,i3oth here and in Egypt, 111:1$t infallibly
t,esult from, this measure. The Troops who arc
'righting our Battles ;in the latter. Country, will
eel their warlike ardour increase, .when they
learn that _ their names and their exploits are
'ti the mouths of all their Pellovv.Soldiers, whilF
°_ll„r 'l' roops at home will naturally feel the sp r
Qt emulation, and be inspired,by the desire of 3 -
(lultifig ihe same etommendation and the same lio,
luur;..The former will he anxious to maintain the
i..putation they have acquired:, the latter will en.

til-t-f "ntitiAd vigilance of. their Royal Conmander,
lilt e6lrtitty must see the most certain pledge Of its

pirteultirly 'agreeable to "have such just groundS for
