Captain WOODRIFFR, who so gallantly defended
the Calcutta, belonging to the East India Company,
and who was takeh prisoner and sent to Verdun, has
recently returned to England. The manner of his
enlargement is singular. Captain W. had made
several applications to TALLEYRAND to procure his
release) but without success. Some time in the last
Month, however, he received an order signed by
BONAPARTE, in Poland, direL•ting him to proceed im-
mediately to England, and to take the route of St.
Maloes, a town which no Englishman is permitted
to enter. On Captain W.'s arrival at this place,
he found his letters forwarded, by the French Go-
vernment, which had . been directed to Verdun.—"
At St. Maloes Captain W. proceeded to engage a ves-
sel, or cartel, to convey him to England, for which
he expeaed ,to pay 40 or 50 guineas ; but was
there ,told that a vessel was provided tbr him by the
French Government, free of every expeuce whatever'•

ately released a French Officer of equal rank with
Capt. W. who has been since returned to France, on

WEST INDIA DOCKS.--The CHANCELLOR of the
EXCHEQUER, the Lords of the Treasury, and other

ceived by ROBERT MILLIGAN, Esq. the Chairman,
It. LEE, Esq. the Deptity Chairtnan, and the Direc-
tors of the West India Dock Company, who were in
readiness on the spot. The visitors testified the

important Works, which fully accomplish the origi,
nal purpose in view, After a sight so gratifying to
every friend' of this • great Commercial Empire, the-
Company adjourned to the London Tavern and en-
joyed a sumptuous dinner.

BERLIN, MAY '50.--By letters from Trieste, of
the 12t h , it is stated that the English at Alexandria
arc under great embarrassments.• The Porte, im-
mediately after Admiral DUCKWORTH'S retreat, had,
ordered considerable detachments of troops to .march,
from Syria td Egypt, to oppose the landing of the
English ; but, though they were too late for this ser-
.vice-ot irbetiecred the English will not receive re-
inforcements' from Malta and Sicily in time to op-
pose the force collet-ling against them. The death of
ELFI BrtY is a.serious loss. to the English ; and what
must increase their embarrassment is, the intelli-

ment of Emigrants at Malta was in a state ,of

reEtion, having fought several days with the, rest of.
the troops ; nor were the. insurgents reduced when

`f WEG-11' ZYNOW, MAY W.—The Russians have

passed the Narew at several points; and attacked
some of our cantonments on the right bank, 'which,
in consequence of their distance from each other,
were unable to withstand the mass that pressed upon
them. The Enemy-had, besideS the Cvssacks, who
are better exercised than ever, anfi several squadronS
of regular cavalry, 1504 infantry,and eight pieces of

cannon. At first they drove in several of our out-
pOsts, and massacred those they took by surprise.
Fourteen sOldiers of the ssth were surrounded in
a small intrenchment, and chose rattler to Joie their
lives.to a man, than surrender. Not one of them

survived. .A.cornpany of grenadiers, of the 64th,
being attacked by the Russians, the COnithandant
of the latter, inflated I.yith, his superior numbers,
advanced with a look of comem,A,and ordered the.
Preach Captain to surrender, when the latter, s.2iz-
ing a musket, levelled and shot him dead, exclaim-
ing, This is the way a Frenchman surrenders;
Three battalions came to the assistance of this brave
company, defeated the RussianS, and plat-sued them
sword in hand. The latter, beside
,their wounded,
left 150 dead upon the ground. The French loSt
only Go men, atid several Cossacks were drowned in

" arshal MASSENA, as we learn, has obtained a
signal advantage over the enemy, but we have not
yet received the details. It seems, the whole army
is in mutton.

" Yesterday there was a report, that the Russians
had made

right wing under Mgrshal MAssENA, but were re-
pulsed with considerable loss. The fifth toys of
