LO.VDON, JULY 17, 1802.

We this morning received the Paris Papers, of
the 13th and 14th' inst. The intelligence brought
by the last Papers, of the arrival of TOUSSAINT at
Brest, is true, General LECLERC, in a Let-
ter from St. Domingo, dated 11th June, states,
that ToussAINT, after his surrender, never ceased
conspiring to regain his influence in the Colony ;
he was therefore under the necessity of causing him
to be arrested.

There is a very long Letter from General R z c Ei E-
P ANC E, at Guadaloupe, in which he gives a more
derailed account of his proceedings in that Island :
he says the Insurgents are completely subdued.
JosE PH BoNAPARTE has been chosen by the Conn.
cil of State, as their Grand Ofcer in the Legion of
Honour. The organization• of that Legion is com-
pleted, and the Revenues assigned for its support
5,265,257 livres.
The Funds are 53 f. 75 c.

The Military establishment for Ireland will be
very considerable. That part of it which respeas
the Infantry is .to consist of the following Regi-
ments of the. Line :—the i sth, 16th, 17th, 18tb,
loth, 21st, 32d, 35th, 36th,_ 38th, 44. th, 45th;
4.6 th, sOth, 56th, 58th, 62d, 03d, .7 ist, 73d, 82d,
and 89th. .Each'of these Regiments is to have 34
Scrjeants, 4.0 Corporals, 22 Drummers, and 710
Privates, ntaking in the whole, exclusive of Com-
missioned Officers, a force amounting to 17;632
cffeftive men.

• Letters from the Hague, received by the Batavian
Mail of yesterday, state, that M. SCHTMMELPEN-
NINcK, who has for some time been Ambassador
from ...the Batavian Republic to the French, is ap-
pointed Ambassador to this Country.
A Letter just received from Madras says, "His
Highness AZE em UL DOWLAH, the Nabob of the
Carnatic, has sent home four letters by the Com-
pany's ship the Charlton, Capt. CUMBERLEGE,
addressed to the Chairman of the East India Com-
pny, the PRINCE of WALES, the'Marquis CORN-
WALLIS, and Lord HOBART. His Highness also
shipped two bOxes, addressed to the KING, and one
to the PRINCE of WALES."

There is something extremely handsome and libe,
ral in the conduti both of Mr. 'WINDHAM and Mr.
WODEHOUSE, with respeCt to the Norfolk Elea ion.
—The latter we hope, and indeed are confident,
must succeech •

We cannot believe it to be true that any Lord
Lieutenants of Counties would take an aftive part
in procuring the Election of Sir FRANCIS BURDETT.
The Puke of NORTHUMBERLAND has gone with
his whole family -0 J3ognor. His. Grace does not
interfere at all in the Middlesex Elation.

The contest-for Norwich cost the respective Can.
didates about thirty-five thousand pounds ; that for
Norfolk will, .probably, not be far short, as Mr.
COKE spares no expence to stand at the head of the
'Poll, and also to bring ;n his' friend, Sir JACOB
ASTLEY, thou& in•this he will certainly fail.
In the course of the contest for Hull, the article
of ribbands alone amounted•td 50001. • .
An opposition has been suddenly started for the
County of Hereford. Mr. HARLEY, one of-the
old Members, having retired, Sir GEo. CORN.
WALL, a Member in a former Parliament, was ex-
peaed to be ieturned. On the day. of nomination,
Mr. GEERS COTTEWELL was started as a Candi-
date, and the business is now come to.apo/l.

The Triuniphal Car in which Mr. BULLER, one
of the successful Candidates for Exeter, rode, was
drawn by ten men in white shirts, tied with blue
and white rilkand-s, and-in front of it rode a wool-
comber at work, dressed in the emhlems a his
trade.

We are happy to see that Mr. Fox at his late
Ta.vern Meetings has omitted the toast of " Our
Sovereign, the Majesty of the•.People."—Perhaps
Mr. Fox saw a little too much of their sovereignty
exercised in the front _of the Hustings at Covent.
Gajdeu, in favour of his favourite Colleague. Mr.
GRAHAM.

Mr. Fox says he contemplates the late EleOion
for WcstMinster with pleasure—lt requires a con-
siderable exertion of -pbliteness to believe that as-
sertion ; but we'may safely say, we contemplate it
with pleasure, though from very different motives.
At the Election in 1796, Mr. H. TOOKE had above
zBOO votes--Mr. GRAHAM polled only 1691. It
must afford sincere pleasure to every real friend of
his Country to find that the Jacobin Interest has so
considerably declined. Much of this decrease may
be attributed to the returning good sense of the Peo-
ple, and not a little to the periodical exportation: to
Botany Bay. .
Colonel HANGER. is one of Sir FRANCIS BUR.
DETT'S most wive partizans in his canvass for Mid,.
dlesex.

So many strange chara&ers have offered them_
selves as Candidates for the New Parliament, with.
out having any chance of getting in, that we can
only, suppose they wanted a little noOriety ; or per-
haps, considering the nature of their principles, to
disgrace the House of Commons by antrritatiolle
