THE EXPEDITION:

The Force, naval and military, that has for .soMe
time been collecting in the Downs, sailed yester
ati,
for its destination.

The wind has not been quite favourable ; but
they "succeed in getting round the North Foreland,
we have little doubt of their being able to prosecute
their voyage.
As the Expedition has now sailed, there is tw longer
any necessity for concealing its destination. The genetat
opinion in the military circles, and among the Officeti
euiployed in this service is, that the first object is ttr
attempt to destroy the means which the' enemy 4,
known to have been for some time engaged• in pig'
• paring at. Flushing, for the annoyance of this country..
Ail uncertainty as to the seal primary object of the:
expedition will be removed :before many days pass:
over :. as to its ultimate object there is but one opi.
• nion,•nor has any secrecy been- affected respecting it.
The force goes to Sweden.
• . ' • ItAM*;ATE. MAY

hanCII JUDICATURE. •
The LORD CHANCELLOR rose, fur the purpose of moving
that their Lordships be summoned for Thursday nett, upott the
recommitment of the Scotch Judicature Bill. His Lordship'slso
took the opportunity of observing, that as some Noble 1, mitt bad
expressed) an anxiety that the proceedings in Preston's Appeal
Cause, respecting the 'feinds of Scotland, should not be delayed,
and as it was a case of much importance, he should move, *at
Bkind's Divorce Bill, which stood for further hearing on Friday
• next, should be postponed, in order to make way for the above
Appeal ;and his Lordship further intimated his intention of taking
the Woolsack at ten o'clock on that mulling, in order to expedite
the cause.

DOVER, MAY s.
" His Majesty's ship PiarNcess of ()Lows, ZEBRA'
bomb, and about ten transports, with troops on board:)
from Portsnrouth, have been becalmed off keen iiiarlr
all day, but a little breeze has just sprUng up from the
Eastward, and they are now turning into the Downs.."

The circumstances which we stated yesterday, re-
respecting Mr. NOURSE'S mission to the French Geo,
vernment, were comet, except in one particular. The
passports demanded were not for Mn AttaurritoNta,
the American Minister and his suite, but for suC
'American citizens as Might, under the existing nip.,
cumstances, nish to quit France--a demand which
was peremptorily refused by the French Minister.
Mr. NOURSE was not permitted to land for almost a
week after the Osage reached L'Orint, and even aftee
he was allowed to go on shore, some time elapsed be..
fore Mr. Lewis could obtain permission to .proceed
with his dispatches for Paris. The treatment t
experienced from the French Government we
already stated. The sum of the doctrine maintained
by NAPOLEON'S Ministers amounts to this : The
1" Decree of our Master supersedes every previous
4. maritime code, and America, like the conquered
" States of Europe, must submit to it I" , If the
Americans have not lost entirely that spirit Oath,
gave them independence, they will not tamely submit
to the will of a man who has no power to inflict on
them greater evils than he has already inflicted by Mi
Decree.
At twelve o'clock yesterday his Excellency Lord
STRANGIORO, the Ambassador, and Sir James. Gast-
BIER, Consul-General from our Court to that of the
Brazils, had their final audience of Mr. Secretary
CANNING. They then visited his Excellency the Cho.
valier de Souza COUTINIIO, (the Portugueze Ambas-
sador at our Court), and at two o'clock, Loed'
ST RA NGFORD, together with Mr. Byso, his Secretary,
and several attendants, left town for Portsmouth,
where the EURTALUS frigate is in readiness to convey
them to Portuguese South America. Sir Jamas
GAMBIER, and his attendants, left town about the
same time. A number of merchants, who are sending
out goods to a vast amount to the Brazils, together
with their supercargoes, and nearly 200 Emigrants
from Lisbon, will be carried out in transports and
merchant vessels under convoy at.the same time.
Yesterday morning a deputation from the merchants
interested in this trade, waited - the CHANCELLOR

After some routine business, their Lordships adjourned Until
to-morrow.
