LONDON, DECEMBER zs, 18oz.

English Parliament, and with a new Plan of Public
Education, proposed by Citizen MrAzt, for the

ably ; they are 54. 90.

A Dutch Mail also arrived in Town this morn-
ing. The intelligence of the EN'? EROR of GER-
MANY having ratified the Conc/asum of the Deputa-
tion, is confirmed. But the most extraordinary in-
telligence brought by the Mail, is in a Letter from
Constantinople, dated Toth November.- It states,
that Colonel SEBASTIAN! had arrived at Alexandria
from France, and that having obtained an interview
with General STEuART, he said he was sent by the
FIRST CONSUL to inquire into the state of affairs in
Egypt, and to know the reason the English Troops
did not evacuate Alexandria, in pursuance of the
Treaty of Amiens.
To this General STEUART replied, that he had
nothing to do with the political causes which oc-
casioned the delay, and that as soon as he received
orders to evacuate Egypt, he would of course obey
them. It is further added, that Colonel SEBASTI-
AN! dispatched a Corvette to France with. this An.
swer of the British General.

We are very much inclined to doubt the truth of
this account, because, if the French Government
were dissatisfied with our retaining possession of
Egypt, they would undoubtedly apply to the Bri-
tish Government for an explanation, and not to an
Officer who certainly could only obey the orders he
received. It is, however, not improbable, that
Colonel SEIBASTIANI has been sent by the FIRST
CONSUL to get some information respelling the
state of Egypt.

THE DUTCH MAIL.

CONSTANTINOPLE, Nov. to,

TODAY we have received advices from Egypt,
that a French Frigate and a Corvette have arrived
at Alexandria. On board the Frigate was the
well.known Colonel SEBASTIANI, who was lately
sent from Paris to Constantinople and Algiers.—
Immediately after his landing he had a confe-
rence with the English General, STUART,E to
whom he declared, that he had it in commission
from the FIRST CONSUL to inquire into the situation
of affairs in Egypt, and that he wished to be in-
formed of the reason why the fulfilment of the
Treaty of Amiens, by the Evacuation of Egypt by
the British Troops, was delayed ?
To this General STEUART answered, that political
reasons and motives were no part of his business;
that he waited for Orders from his Government,
and when they arrived he should obey them.
Citizen SEBASTIAN' immediately dispatched the
Corvette to France, with the answer of the English
General, and proceeded himself to Cairo.

Though the late Letters from Egypt brought in-
telligence so very unfavourable to the Turks, the
Porte has now receiveil advice, that the Troops of
the Beys in Upper Egypt have been surrounded by
the forces of the PACHA of CAIRO. OMAR BEY
has gone over to the Pacha with all his Troops.
The plague has made great ravages among the Sol-
diers of the Beys.
[These latest Dispatches which came direetly from
Constantinop/e,make no further mention of the Earth-
quake of the 26th of Odober ; whence it is evi-
dent that the reports of the great damage occa-
sioned by it to that City, are without foundation.—
