LONDON, APRIL 9, 18'03.

A Harabargb Mail arrived last night, but the
only article of importance which it brings, is the
celebrated ,Maniferto of the French Government,
which we have Already laid before our Readers.—

It is not unworthy of notice, that the Csrrerm-
denten ,in which the Manifesto is contained, is
printed upon larger and finer paper ;ban usual. This
was probably insisted upon, to make this insult to
a-Neutral Power morc glaring, and its submission
more degrading.

The Mon tour of the sth inst. reached us this
morning, but does not contain a single article of in.
telligence.

The French Funds have risen a little ; they are

53. 75.

The Sublime Porte has been pleased, in testi-
mony its high sense of the Services of the Indian
Army, in the late Expedition to Egypt, and as a
disiinguished mark of its regard, . to confer on His
Excellency the most Noble iVlatquis Wszaotslary
Governor-General of Bengal, the Order of the

The Royal Marines at Stonehouse and Mill Bat-
racks, are almost all embarked on board the Men of
War fitting fortia in Hatfloaze. There are about
too rank and file left at Quarters. Recruits fur
this valuable and National Corps, mostly fine young

embarked from Plymouth since the bustle, are
allowed by every person to be the finest body of
Troops ever seen to . embark on any service,
both in appearance, health, discipline, and ap-
pointments.

A Letter from Copenhagen says„ " There is
every reason td believe, from the nature of the Ne.
gotiations now carrying on, that the Peace between
this Country and. Algiers will not be interrupted.
Unfortunately, however, we are not great enough
to treat the Chief of Pirates with disdain, nor to
refuse him the customary terms on which his fur,
bearance is to be obtained."

A Pitivr has lately been r►ad before the Royal
Society, by Mr. HOME, pn the nature of the tongue.
His experiments on different diseased tongues prove
that this tns4.llber is endowed with less irritability
than any other organ of the body ; and that a dis:
cased part, may be temoved with great safety by
mean's of ligatures.
