THE EMBARKATION.

RAMSGATE, JAN. I.—Yesterday the 3d division ofi
the Guards marched in here, and embarked immesh.,
ately. They were about WO strong, belonging to the
Ist battalion of the 3d regiment. The 2d division of
the Guards, that embarked on Friday, sailed the
same evening from the harbour ; and the wind being
fair for Portsmouth, they went through the Downs
without bringing up there, in company with the rest
of the troops that had before sailed from Ramsgate
Pier. The 3d division of the Guards, which sailed
from the Downs last night, have also proceeded for
Portsmouth, the wind continuing favourable.
The conduct of the Guards during the embarka-
tion cannot be too highly praised, for their steadiness
and attention to discipline and order. At the hour
appointed for the third division sailing last night from
the Pier, the usual guard went round to pick up strapi
piers, &c at which time not an offiter or private was
found loitering in the town, every man being en
board his preper vessel. On leaving the Pier they
gave three cheers, which were returned by their well.
washers on shore. During thelabole of the embar.

NAUTICAL *INTELLIGENCE.

PLYMOUTH, JANUARY 1.
No arrivals.—This evening sailed the PILCHARD
schooner to the West7ard.—Captain GOODALL, High
Admiral of his Impetial Majesty CH RISTOPIIR, Em-
peror of Hayti, landed here on Thursday morning,
and proceeded to town. He arrived the preceding
evening in the Ravenbrig,, Captain GRANT, from
Jamaica. He complains loudly of the insult he has
suffered by the seizure and.detention of his vessel by
' a British cruizer ; and it is said he is come over for
the express purpose of presenting a strong
\remon-
strance or memorial to our G6vernment on e sub-
ject.—Captain GRANT left Jamaica the 31st of cto-
Pber ; of course he brings no intelligence but wh t is

already known.--Admiral GOODALL still insists that
the affairs of his patron, CIIRISTOPIIE, are not in that
desperate state in which they are represented by the
English papers, and inveighs strongly against their
misrepresentations. He sayssCHRISTOPHE would long
since have been in possession of the whole Island, but
for treachery ; and that his ultimate success, even
now, is by no means uncertain. Captain G. appears
an enterprising, intelligent man, and conversed freely
on the present state of our own and the enemy's pos.
sessions in the West Indies.—His sable Majesty, it
seems, is quite enraged at our breach of good faith,
as he understood himself to be perfectly at peace with
the English, whose friendship and good•wili he was
solicitous to retain.

The Cora brig, Captain MASON, laden with proi.
visions, bound from Dublin to London, was captured
on Sunday last by the Clarisse French lugger priva-
teer, and recaptured the Tuesday following, by the,
ENTREPRENANTE cutter, Lieutenant WILLIAMS, Idle
sent her for this port, where she arrived on Thursday,
evening.. The above privateer sailed front St. Mal*
on FridaT se'nnight, the WM ult. in company
six other lugger privateers, and two large brigs, the
latter. mounting twenty guns each, The Frenchmen

taken hi the Cora have been lodged in Mill-prison :
they say, that the luggers are intended to cruize in
our Channel, and the brigs off Cape Fumisterre.
I am sorry to state that the enemy's privateers, in
the Channel, have latterly been Very successful--four
vessels, traders, between London•and the Land's End,
have been taken by them within these ten days ; and
the Orpheus, from Liverpool ; and Good Intent,
from PortsmoUth, which arrived on Friday, had a
very narrow escape, being chaced several lenses by
an enemy's cruizer, which would have captured them,
had not another vessel hove in sight, which the enemy
mistaking for one of our sun brigs, sheered off across
the Channel.

The EMERALD, of $6 guns, Captain MAITLAND,
is ordered to Hamoaze to refit.
The AMETHYST, Captain SEYMOUR, is expected to
sail towards the end of the ensuing week ; every e -
ertion has been made by the officers. of the Doc?: -

gallant action. Her prise, also, h. Thetis, is in
forward state of equipment.
