American papers to the t4th ultimo have been re.
ccived, from which Tome extrals are given in the
preceding columns. The &Oration of the French
gbip Impetueux, 0174 guns, by the boats of the Me.
lampus, on the American coati, is objated to as a
breach of neutral rights; and the French Conful at
Norfolk has retested to acknowledge her crew as pri.
Tows of war, alledging that flee wa► taken within the
jurifdiflion of the Uni.ed States. The difpute %Lich

Lord MOIRA'S Regiment, and the German Rifle brit•
talion of the Goth regiment, are all under orders fur

marched to Portenouth, for embarkation ; but we
have pet bee:dal any other regiments having arrived

Ws ardently wills we could announce that General
CRAW, van's expedition bas failed. This large body
of troops has now been upwards of a quarter of a
year on board (hips and as yet has only made the
tour of all our feaports, almofl to the ruin of the
Officers. It will be fortunate if the troops do nct
become fickly before they leave our ports. The fest-
Im has arrived at which bad weather is to be ex-
po:led on our coasts and at fca.

THE ARMY.
To increafe our regular Army, and the regiments
of the line, Items wow to be a meaflare determined on
by every one in Adminithation. The late occur.
rences on the Continent more and more (hew the
propriety of this meafure,and urge its exertion with-
out delay. We have heard, that among other mea-
lures to be rdlrt'ed to in order to accomplifh this,
there will be another large draft from the Militia.
Several regiments now on the Irifh eßablifhment
are mated in this Country ; they will be replaced
by more ad b..ttilions from this country and from
Scotland.

On the oot.fet, we find General CRAWFUID is very
popular with his army, he has minutely examine/
into the Rate of every corps compofing it, and or-
dered feveral refrethments and comforts, which we
are aftetnithed Ihould not have been earlier provided,
for the foldier going to feet the enemies of his coun-
try in a foreign and inhofpitable Blom
We find that Major TRUTTIkRp who has been fent
by Sir Davin Baran to General B ttttt oat), as Ad-
jutant General to Buenos Ayres, is brother to Mr.
Tacrrvra, late Secreta►y to C. J. For, and nephew
to the late Bilbop of Down.
There two fine Regiments of the Scotch Militia,
the Renfrew and Fifelhire, are in garrifon at Dover
Catile.

Our Military Readers will be glad to bear that the
gallant Marquis of HUVTLY has got a Seat in Parlia-
ment—they will now have another advocate for the
intereft of the foldiers in our National AlTerribly.
