Yesterday,- the MiniSter teft •Town for East-
bourne, whs.. reliiS..Fguily will reside for some weeks
longer.

Lord 'WHITORTH certainly sets Off: for Paiis
r.ex•t week. Every doenestic .arrangprient ,on, the
part of his Lordship, has been long ready for that
purpose.

- new EienCh AmbassadOr, General ANDRE-
c;sT, has sent word, that lie would, With the ex-
eention of a Private
Secretary, retain the same Gen_
tiemen in London, who have been ernployed during
Mr. Orro's Embassy.
Lord CASTLEREADH iS arrived in town, and has
taken his seat as President of the India Board.
The LORD MAYOR yesterday gave an elegant
Dinner at the Mansion House to Sir J. B. WARREN,
previous to his setting ()Ton his Embassy. Among
the company present were Lord NELSON, Sir
.SIDNEY SMITH, Mr. JAcKSoN,
- The Private Letters lately receiverfroin-PariS,
contain very contradictory accounts respe4ing Ge-
neral LASNES ; in one of them it is said that he has
been forbidden to return to Paris, and in another
it is stated that he has aatially returned, and has
had an interview with the Futs'r CONSUL.
American Papers were received in town yester-
day, up to the 31st July.; they contain scarcely any
thing of importance. Captain M`LAit EN, %vim ar-
rived at New-York on the 29tli July, from Cape
Francois, after a passage of eight days, relates that
Gen.Lr.cl:EßC had ordered an additional duty of s per
cent. on all goods exported from St. Domingo, mak-
ing a total duty of zs per cent, ; that reinforcements
of Troops were daily arriving from France ; that
the fever still raged with great violence among the
Troops ; that out of nearly seventy Generals who
came out with the Army, not more than twenty--
five remained, the remainder having been almost
all .cut ofF by the fever ; that General LECLERC
was on the eve et returning to France, and was to
be succeeded by General M'DoNALv ; that Ame-
rican produce was in general very low ; and that
flour was selling eight dollars per barrel:
Mr. Fox, in the bombastic manner of the French,
is styled the First Man in England. and the ex-
pression is here echoed by those who °till ha v c a
wish fin- Revolution in this Country. It would be
of little consequence, indeed, what became of this
Country, if Mr. Fox were really the First Man
in it.

Mr. Fox chuses to forget, and BONAPARTE pro-
bably never heard of the Anti-Gallican sentiments
which that Gentleman formerly uttered in the House
of Commons, when it suited his rirpose. When
the Commercial Treaty with France was proposed
in the House of Commons, some sixteen years ago,
Mr. Fox opposed it, on the ground of its allying
us too closely with
.France ; a Country, of which
he. said, we should ever entertain a' distrust, and
against which we should ever encourage a National
i'sntipathy,
We do not wonder that a kind of sympathetic
feeling should exist between the (worth) Alderinan
COMBE and the FIRST CONSUL of France. They
both attained the Chief Magistracies in the. Metro-
politan Cities of the respeetive Countries on the
same day, namely, November gth, 1799.
According io report, Monsieur NECKAR and
Monsieur de CALONNE, who have long been at
Literary Loggerheads, have resumed.the pea, deter..
mined. to fight the matter out. One accuses the
either of having ruined the Fine/neer of France: the
Other retorts the charge, and, in addition, alledges
that his adversary's_ bungling spirit of Democracy
overturned the Governient of France, and occasion-
ed the murder of it 4 Sovereign. Much may be said
.on both sides.

The uncertainty of all human affairs is striking-
ly exemplified in the relative state of France and
Turkey. Two or three years ago France endea-
voured to dispossess Turkey of its most valuable
4,,pendi,ges, and now they loive entered into a Con-
vention, in which it is agreed that " Hostilities
;shall, for she future, and for ever, cease between
the two States ! !! "
We learn from Cudelalore the death of Captain
ANDREW KERR, aged 76, formerly of the Country
Service, but better known by the name of the Old
Commodore. He was born at Fort St. David's,
abOut the year 1726. In his Will he direded his
body to be interred in is particular spot of his gar-
den, without ceremony or service. His con bad.
lain for many years in hissodown (warehouse), and
was made use of as a liquor chest.
The Earl of ROSLIN has recently taken a consi-
derable tra'sq of land under his oWn immediate cul-
tivation ; the arable part of it he intends to ap-
portion equally to the broad-cast.and drill modes of
hobandry, thus to ascertain, by a course.olcorrea
experiments, which of the two is, on the. whole,
the more advantageous praesieid system.
