CALAIS, SEPT. 5.

Strttt.r, as Is the ordinary charaeter of the
in this Town, it has within these few days
assumed a degree of rigour and increased aaivity,
Which astonishes even the inhabitants themselves,
And gives rise to a variety of rumours and conjec-
tures. No passengers from England are permitted
to land, till an order to that effect is obtained from
the Commissary. A Centinel is placed on the
?,tiay to see this order pereMptorily enforced.
very house has been visited yesterday by Messen-
gers from the Police Office, for the purpose of
taking down the names of every Eiig,lish inmate.
Two Gentlemen, who arrived here yes(erday, with_
out having taken the precaution to turnish them-
selves with Passports, were compelled to return to
England •by the evening tide, under the-penalty of
being confined in the Citadel, if they stopped one
moment atter the sailing of the Packet. Formerly,
Such Gentlemen as neglected to provide themselves
with Passports from M. Otrn, a negleti which,
strange as it may a pi,t'a r, many I find have been
guilty of, had an opportunity of repairing their
error, and procuring a Passport from the Commissary
at Calais, by giving a proper account of themselves,
and getting _a person to vouch for them. Now no-
thing of the kind is allowed. Without a Passport,
You are inevitably ordered back—nay, is even
rumoured, that in addition to M. OTTO 's.-P
assport,
Qentlemea, who wish to travel in France, nop,t be
furnished with one from Lord FlAwxEssuttY's Office.
The cause of this increased rigour is variously ac-
Counted for : some will have it, that the two Go.
vernments are in search
,ot. certain persons, who
have been guilts, of crimes of aggravated atrocirty,
and who are suspeCted of endeavouring to elude the
vigilance of Government, by escaping to foreign
Countries. Others trace the cause in the great
emigration of Mechanic, and Artizans from Great
trOain, who find means to obtain Passports from
France,-under false pretences, by giving themselves
out for Labourers, Farmers, eice. An English
taper is not to be had in any one Coffee-house or
notel in all Paris.

This morning the 57th Regiment, which has
done Garrison duty in Calais for a long time, was
relieved by, the 28th.—The latter distinguished
itself at the battle of Marengo.

The Grenadier Battalion is an extremely fine
body of men. The Officers are remarkably tall,
well made and handsome. Scarcely a day passes
without a duel between the Soldiers. They always
fight with sabres, and frequently for a wager.
'Yesterday two Soldiers of the 57th Grenadier Bat.
talion fought on the Sand-hills • they were both
desperately wounded ; one had his ribs laid open,
and the Other half his face cut away. Today,
being Sunday, we are to be regaled with the pious
and edifying spthacle of a grand Fencing Match
between the iVlasters of the 57th Regiment and the
Professors and Amateurs of Calais. This is by
Way of taking leave !

• This day Egham Races commenced, and consider-
able amusement was looked for. THEIR MAJESTIES,
it was expeded would, as usual, honour the Race
ground with their presence.
Colonel FULLARTON, and Sir SAMUEL HOOD,
the two Commissioners going out to Trinidad, and
Colonel
NtITHERI.OItD, the Surveyor General of that
Island, will embark in a few days at Portsmouth.
General PI c Ton, the other Commissioner, is already
there as Governor.

Or. ANDERSON, the Editor of the British Poets,
is on a visit in Ireland :o the Bishop of DROMOR E.
Mr. JoNzs, the late Member of Parliament, has
purchased the seat at Roehampton, lately built by
His Royal Highness the Duna Of CLARENCE.

It is calculated that the English at Paris generally
form one-fourth of the Audiences at places of pub-
lic entertainment there. A good deal of English
money is circulating at present in France. We hope,
however, the disgust that is universally felt by the
English Visitor,, will soon cure our Countrymen of
t:eir rage for visiting France.
