ARRIVAL OF THE FRENCH AMBAS-

SADOR AND SUITE.

His Excellency General Count Sebastiani, with his Lady
and Suite, arrived at the Carlton Hotel, Regent-street, yes-
terday afternoon, at four o'clock, from Dover, where he slept
at Worthington's Hotel on the preceding night. We under-
stand it is not the intention of his Excellency to occupy.
Prince Talleyrand's residence in Hanover-square, but to re-
main for two or three weeks at apartments at the above Hotel,
or till a new residence shall be taken for him. The mansion
in Hanover-square will be dismantled of the furniture, books,
and pictures of Prince Talleyrand, and then given up to the
proprietor, the Dowager Marchioness of Downshire. M.
Brennior, Second Secretary to the French Embassy, accom-
panied the General from Dover, having left town on Sunday
evening for the express purpose of meeting his Excellency.
M. de Borguenay, Principal Secretary to the Embassy, is also
with the General.

It is singular that the newly-appointed Envoys from France
and Russia are natives of Corsica, but naturalized in the coun-
tries they represent.
General Sebastiani, though bearing the title of Count, is
not, we believe, a Peer of France. He had a seat in the
Chamber of Deputies, and held till lately one in the French
Cabinet, without a portefeuille.
Among other anecdotes of the new French Plenipotentiary,
it is related that the General, when Minister for Foreign Af-
fairs, observed, in a debate on the. Peerage, that the Duke de
Montebello, father of the present French Ambassador at Co-
penhagen, had steeped his patent in his own blood on twenty
fields of battle before he bequeathed hereditary distinction to
his son ; and, added Sebastiani, let me relate a brilliant re-
partee of Massena. Being in company with a foreign officer
who made much of the name he bore, and trumpeted the ex-
ploits of his ancestors to the skies ; the Conqueror of Zurich
thus greeted the boaster, " You speak the truth, Sir, but for
my own part I intend to become an ancestor myself."

FASHIONABLE INTELLIGENCE.
