LONDON, LY 20, ißos.

WE received this morning. the illeo4tetor of the
,6th inst. It contains an account of the progress
of the' First Consul through ItiptiN, rpret,
port, and 0/I‘;./td, to Bruger, together with the
'Addresses to him and Madame BON.APA)tis, which
spew that the people qtaktitlers do not fall very
short of their fellow;gau)sitteis in. Prance,: in their
powers of flattery.
The blockade of the Slbe has, -is might naturally'
be expened, produced an angry , dissertation it the
Journal, on the injustice of the measure. It
is represented as a violent attack upon the riglit. of
Neutral Nations, and as a proof that the English
Governmerm are determined not to suffer any Power
to remain neuter,

It appears by a Letter from llanover,ihat the

French have sent several persons to examille the
Forests of that Elenorate, and to cause to he cut
down and conveyed to France, all the timber that
may be thought fit for the purposes of ship-building.
The Funds remain at sz.

- We this day lay before onr Readers a correa—i
AbStradof 4iie Bill which was brought into the
HoUselif•Commons on Monthy, for the more effkc.,
tual sed&riYrtif the Realm; and though •we lament`]
that the measure has been delayed so long, we
entertain confident hopes, that in a few weeks the
greatest part of the Male Population of this cows. •
try will, be (voluntarily in arms.. The Bill cer.
tainly gives a power to. compel the service of Indi. H
viduals, but we are confident that in no case will it •,
be necessary to have recourse to compulsion ; we
think with Mr. PITT, " that there will not be one
Englishman from one corner of the kingdom to the
other, who will think of offering an excuse after this
solemn admonition; after hearing the Voice of his
Country in an hour of peril, calling upon him for
36511itance.'! • .

The preparations for Invasion are carrying on
with uncommon aftivity in France : it appears by
our Dover Letter, that no led than 8000 Boats
are building in different Ports of the Republic ;
but before these Boats are construetede we shall,
we trust, have at least Half a Million of Men in
Arms, exclusive of the Regular Army, the Militia,
and the Army of Reserve.

Monday evening Hts MAirstv and the PRIN.
CESSEI walked on Windsor Terrace, with their
usual attendants. Among the visitors we noticed
Lord BRAY BROOK and Family.
HER MAJESTY, attended by Lady CAROLINE
DAMER, took an firing from Windsor to Frog.

MAJESTY, With his usual attendants, took an air-

ink{ in Windsor Great Park.
-Yesterday morning HIM NittiEsTY, aeoompanied

sor to yrogmore.

Early on yesterday morning the Staffordshire
Militia had a grand field-day in the Little iPark at

Yesterday morning 200 of the South Gloucester
Militia marched through Windsor, on their way to
Dover Cdmp. , ,

We have great pleasure in announcing the plans o
Voluntary Association that are forming in every part
of the kingdom. The young Men of Fashion of the
Metropolis have set art example, 'which vve have no
doubt will he followed in every City thlotighout the
unnited kingdom. It is resolved to forin an Equestian
Corps of Noblemen and 'Gentlemen in London, who
shall hold themselves in readiness to set off at an
hour's n glee, ruounted and equipped at their own
expellee, to .whatever part of the Coast the enemy
may direr their menace' of invasion. It is said,
that the Right Hon. JOHN CHARLES VILLIERS
is
to be Colonel;' the Marquis of LoRNE, Lieutenant.
Colonel ; Lord VI 1.1. i ras, Mojor.
From the number of Candidates already offered,.
it is believed that the Corps' will amount to One
Thons:ind Gentlemen at least, and they will be
mounted oar the finest horses. which this kingdom
can boast. It is probable that each Private in the
Corps will be attended by his servant on a horse
equally good as his own ; and that, trained as they
will be in'a few week,s by Colonel VILLYsks, who
had a It eglment of Fencibles in the last W ar, they
will lit`' an Advanced Guard wherever danger shall
present itself.
The First Regiment of West York Militia has
marched from Hull, for Colchester ; the Third Regi-
ment has marched from York for the same place ;
and the East York Regiment of Militia is on its
march from Scarborough, also for Colchester, by
the route of Lincolnshire.
The 4.jd Regiment, commanded by Gen. Moozz,
is shortly to expeded to juin the Encampment at
Shoreham Cliff.
A Boaro of General Officers was held on Monday
at the Horse Guards, fur the imrpose of arranging A
plan for securing, in a more expeditious way, the
payment of Prize.muney to the Army. The plan
proposed was, that a. person, to be called Prize.
master, should be established to every Regiment,
who should receive the money, and immediately
distribute it to the Officers ani.Privates. . This
measure, We uoderstand, is to be carried iota efild
immediately.
.
.
The long pending discussions between this GO
vernment And the United States, respeding the
claim; of the American Citizens fir captures by
British Cruisers during the last War, are now hap.
pily brought very near a conclusion. Last Friday
the first Instalment upon the awards of the Commis.
sioners, amounting to about 400,0001. became due,
and was runttualty i,aill by this Govermnent, Tile,
whole will amount to abuto 1,2°0,00°1. The three
Commissioners, Messrs. GORE, PIIiCKNEY, and
TURNBULL, who have resided in Englaial for seven
years, merit the thanks of both Countries, for theit
patience and perseverance in the examinations and'
adjustMent of claims that might have so greatly
„ffiatitolie good uoderstanding between them.
