Brigands, who had then posseision of his wife,

The tondult Of General LASNSSi In Portugal,
both fromtthe ravage propensity of his nature, and
the encouragement by which it has been instigated
by his Government, has passed all bounds of decency
and endurance. The contempt and hautear with
which he presumes to treat the PRINCE REGENT,
are altogether intolerable, and seem to betray, on
the part of the Consular Court, a wish to make an
exieriment how tar such insolent preslimption may
unresentingly be submitted to. We arc informed
that he requested, or rather demanded, an audience
of the PRINCE REGENT, and fixed the hour at which
he was to be admitted; that he went to Court at the
hour he prescribed, but upon finding the Pa INCE de.
taineampon some serious business, beyond the ap.
;minted moment, after looking at his watch, ordered
hianearriage, and abruptly withdrew, to the great as-
tonishment and indignation of all the Representatives
or other Piswers. Such insolence 'could only find a
parallel in the conduct of the same man, who, when

Tats day the ChicfConsul repaired on horieback
to the Dock of the _lnvalids, and that near the
Champ de Mars, where he went on board most of
the gun-boats and other Vessels. He viewed with
particular attention a new kind of oars invented by
C. MARGUE RI E, and caused a trial to be made of
them as, they seemed to increase the velocity of
the vessels, he expressed, his approbation of them.
Letters from Sc; Malo state, that six Flat-bot-
tomed Boats, four Transports, and two Gun-boats,
from Brest, have entered that Harbour in the sight
of an English Frigate and a Cutter. This Division
on its passage was attacked by an English Cutter,
but the latter met' with so warm a reception that
she was obliged to sheer off. In the course of a
few days so vessels will be ready at St. Malo, for
the E?:petiirion. Vice-Admiral Boum will soon
proceed thither to be Inspeaor-General of the Ma:-
ririe.

The First Consul has recommencieti three new
Candidates to the Conservative Senate ; among
whom are Botssy D'Arsc Liss, the Tribune, and Le
BRUN ROCHEMONT, brother of the Third Consul.
Nov. I.—Though orders have been sent to some
of the Prefab, where the building of flat.bottomed
boats has not yet been begun, to suspend their prepa.
rations, it must by no means be imagined that any re-
laxation has takeoplace in the measures adoptedagainst
England, for both here and in all the different Sea
Ports, the Boat.builders are incessantly employed to
complete the Vessels already on the stocks, and
which it is supposed will be fully sufficient for the
intended Invasion. Two new boats were this day
launched from the Quay of the Invalids ; aid another,
in which a detachment of the Life Guards had em-
barked, performed various MartCtUVICS.
One of our Journals contains the following ob.
servations on the Expedition against England
" It is true that the Land Troops in France can
easily be assembled, hut thegreat difficulty is to unite
our Naval Forces. if we suppose that the general
places of rendezvous are Dunkirk, Boulogne, and
Calais, all the vessels provided on different parts of
the Coast, from Bayonne to Holland, must ulti.
mately proceed thither, and if they fall in with any
of the English Squadrons must either fight their
way, or find means to elude their attack, which
may be done in the following manner : As a great
part of the Coast is defended by batteriei and forts,
as soon as the flotilla discovers the enemy our;ves..
eels, as they are weaker than the English, moo:0i.
deavour to run in under the protettion of the baize..
ries, and place themselves in such a position as is best
calculated to oppose the enemy, which will then be
'obliged to give up the pursuit ; the same tnanceuvre
must he repeated the next day, and so on till the
Vessels have reached the place of their destination,
In thjs manner several small Squadrons have already
formed a Junnion in spite of the enemy, and at the
same time our Soldiers and Sailors are exercised in
the necessary manccuvres.
64 When the diffreent divisions are united, the
people must be daily exercised till the moment arrive
when, in the course of six hours, they can land fifty
thousand men on the banks of the Thames. We
do tot yet know the real state of our force in the
different harbours, and if we did know it, it cer.
tainly would nut he proper for us to disclose it,
but on the Bth of October it was stated at Lqndon
that we had at Dunkirk too boats completely ready
and manned, at Ostend rso, at Boulogne so, at
Calais 70, at Dieppe, Fi-c my, anti Blankenburg so.
at Flushing so, anti at Hrivoeisluys 60. it we
suppose that the English had correct
our naval force must have since been considerably
increased by the boats and vessels built in the in.
tenor."

In the mean time every precaution has been taken
to prevent the disease from spreading to the ciry,

OCT. I g.-Our wretched situation becomes every

the sick, and burying)the dead,part icula fly on board
