THE EXPEDITIONS.

Ycfterday the fleet of tranfports, with the' troops
on board, alfo the outward bound from the Downs,
arrived at Portfmouth, and joined the velTels under
convoy of his Majelly's fillips, GANGES, Ca►TAts,
and KINGSFISIKEIp about feven in the morning, and
proceeded to the wellward.
The men of war and traofpnrts, for the expeditions
at Plymonei, had their fignal for failing flying on
Monday, and were perfectly ready IS fail. It wa►
undcrftood there that they were only waiting for the
above vetfels from the Downs and Portfmouth, which
have probably arrived before this time. Indeed we
typal to-morrow to be able to announce the failing
of the whole.
The hotles belonging to Captain Hamm's com-
pany of Artillery werc embarked on Monday morn•
ing on board the HYDRA, which was thus ready to
join the other [hips.

THE ARMY.

_ _— ....in t.
Yefterday the connoiffeurs in military tallies had a
high treat in the review of that renowned-corps, the
4oth regiment, on Scull) Sea Beach. By fix.o'cloek
in the morning the concourfe of fpellators was great,
oei j there was an affemblage, not only of mod of the Of.l

A compacy of the German Artillery, and the :ft

to Sicily, and are the only troops to be embarked at
Portfmouth for that quarter.
A new Governor General and a new Common.
der in Chief, were lately urgently called for in India.
We know not what to think of matters now, while
the Governor General has retired to
,Scotland, the
Commander: in Chief is going on a fecret expedition :
but wherever his Cervices are wanted, there cannot
be employed an abler or more alive Officer than
General SIIIICOI.
Our anxiety and expefiations are high regarding
the fate of General.B RRRRR ORD'S expedition to South
America. The General is one of our bell and moll
dafhing Military charafters, and every thing that can
fie effected by ability and enterprize, may be t xpaled
from him. General BaRiSiORD is one of the heroes
of Egypt. To the credit of Government ever y one of
theft heroes is now ;salve!, employed.

Par& papers to the t 3th have arrived ; alto Dutch
papers to a late date—but they add little to the laft
accounts received from the Continent.
Although the death of the Germanic Body has
been long expeßed, the afloat denude of fo ancient
and venerable an Inftitution caufes a degree of fur-
price. For theft feveral month, however, every body
has been talking of Bo AAAAA vs's projefts to put the
old Connitution out of the way, and cred fame-
thing in its Read. What elfe any one could expea,
WC ate at a loft to conceive. BONAPARTE concluded
the Peace of Prefburgh, it is true, but could it be
believed that Germany was to remain as it was,
or that that the Emperor of Germany had then
fottfcribed to the wotli of his terms?—That is not
the way BOMAPIIaTa has ever negotiated, or ever
will negotiate. By a Pacification he lays down cer-
tain principle., to which an unfortunate adverfary
fuhfcribes, but he Coon demonflrates the extent of the
principles by the importance of the corollaries he de-
duces from them. The peace of Prefburg, to be lure,
fays nothing of the deftruaion of the old Gerroaniz
Confederacy, and the inflitution of the new one, the
former a meafitre the mod degrading, the latter moil
menacing to the Houk of Auftlia. But if spy man
fuppofed or expetted that Bo AAAAA vs had e xhau ft ed
his hoßility againfl Aufiria when he figned a treaty
with that unfortunate family, he moil be Rrangelr
prejudiced in favour of Bomaritarati toed filth.

What we fee palling in Germedy, really oeght to'
excite no fitprize, becaufe it is founded upon the un-
alterable character and unchangeable policy of Bo-
wataarit, and therefore we cannot fee ground for
fuppOling that any thing like a confederacy to refill
thi propofed innovation is in forwardnefs. Now that
Bo AAAA are is in poffeffion of every thing which af-
fords him facility for crufhinghis adverfaries in detail,
can it be expelled that they will aft 3 They have
ample jollification, if their means were equal to the
juftice of their caufe, But what hope is there that their
caufe wallet be managed with that ability which Would
enfure fueceft 3 We have Peen too much of the
Coalefied Powers, to allow them credit even for any
portion of .wifdom or energy. What party, Aulria
or ?mita, would lead the Coalition, not to (peak of
Ruffia ? what then would be' the confequence of a
Coalition ? The extinftion of the Houle of Brinden-
burgh, perhaps, and Mtiaar at Berlin. It is vain to
enumerate battalioos on paper, when thofe who guide
the meafurei and lead the armies of the enemies of
Bo are fo well knows. Fortune has favoured'
him in nothing more than in the degraded (late of
the Courts and Cabinets of the Continent.

was not fo numerous as on former oceafons ; nor were

This was followed by fucceffive peels, until ten o'clock
