THE AAmr.

Yesterday the Duke of Yout held a Military
Levee at his Office in the Horse Guards, as Coin-
minder in Chief of the Btitish Army, Which WAS
more numerously attended than any Ncolkcted,
there being between 70 and SO present.
The following Circular indicates the anxiety of
Government to complete the preparations for war :

" HORSE GUARDS, APRIL. IS, NIS.
SlR—The efficiency of every individual corps being at this
time considered of the highest importance. I have received the
Commander in Chief's commands to call your most earnest at-
tention to every ohj-et which t. ads to ;:repate the regiment un-
der your command Mr active and iiiimediair set vire. With this
view you will please to adopt the seadirtt means of completing
the equipment of the regiment in every respect; but the pint to
which I am directed mixt particularly to require your attention,
is the Recruiting Service, on the success-of which must necessa-
rily depend the possibility of the Regiment taking its share in
the contest whick may coon ually await us. It is confidently ex-
pected, that the Increase which has recently taken place in the
levy money, and the aheraion which his been admitted in the
standard of the age and height of recruiti, will give new energy
and facility to this branch us the service; and it must be your
especial cote to avail yourself of these favourable circunistances,
to which nothing will more contribute, than a judicious selec-
tion of the nun-eonundmiouisd officers and soldiers whom you
employ on this Important duty, taking special care that those
only are thus employed, In whose zeal, activity, and intelligence
)eu have reason to Ogee: the utmost reliance.
" The Commander in Chief is (silly persuaded, that by a strict
attention to the established rules a:id regulations, and by spirited
exertion, cotobined with judicious arrangement a.. to the distri-
bution and composi•ion of the path.* the recruiting service
may be made much more producttve than heretofore, and hi.
Royal HiLliness conitnAils me t.i a,:d, tin• an Ogicer can hardly
render a mote acceptable service, Or one inure honourable to
himself, than by his endeavours to place the corps under his or-
Jets in a stare of pre aration for active service
•• I have the honour ;o he, Ste. dc:."

Lip utenant-Colonel Lord CenrEsincit (eldest .nn of
Earl CAT' ICA ItT), Assistant Quarter-Master-General
of the Kent District, is appcionted to a bimilar situa-
tion on the Stail of the Amy in Belgium, undo the
Duke of WELLINGTON.

'lhe Militia ltrgiments which have been disbanJed
are expected to contribute vealy to the tilling up of
the Regulars.
The Bloomsbury anti Inns of Court Volunteer
Association, are about to offer their services to Go-,
velment as during the late war. A tender to that
effect, is already signed by the greater part of the
Members of the former Associations The St. James's
have also tendered their services, which have been
acccptr.d.
The 3d Battalion of that erce lent corps the Royal
Scots, or Duke of Kawr's own, commanded by Lieu-
tenant-Colonel COLIN CASIVIIELL, with a number of
its old Officers, the Ht.roes of Salamanca, Vittoria,
St. Sebastian, and St. Etienne, has been ordered to
join the British atmy in Belgium, under the com-
mand of Fitld Marshal the Duke of WIILLINOTON.-•••

This Battalion was with the expedition to Walcheren,
whence it encountered all the campaigns in the Pe-
ninsula anti France. At Bayonne it had the misfor-
tune to I,,se its veteran leader, Major-General AN
DREW 1-Ay, then Colonel of the Yotk Chasseurs.

Monday: the 10th instant, the day on which the
manor Able battle of Toulouse was fought, which put
so glorious a termination to the Peninsular war, and
on which, as well as on many others during those
immortal campaigns, the Stith regiment of foot, com-
manded by Lieutenant• Colonel Cams, distinguished
itself in a very particular manner, the Officers of that
corps, in commemoration thereof, entertained a nu-
merous party of friends at dinner, at their quarters,
Lire Barracks, King's County, Ireland. In the
course of the evening, a variety of.loyal and patriotic
toasts were drank, corresponding to the aspect of the
times, to which the Band of the regiment played ap-
propriate airs.

It is currently reper:cl on 'Change this morning
that Mr. CANNING has arrived at Falmouth, from
Lisbon.

This morning a Messenger set off with dispatches
for Brussels.

Although most of the private papers belonging to
the BOURBONS were destroyed before the Km; left
Paris, yet a great mass of public documents, relative
to the proceedings at Congress, and correspcndence
respecting the Negotiations with America, fell into
the hands of BoNAVARTE. Hence the publication of
Lord CASTLEREAGH'S VOIC,OR the subject of Saxony,
I and TALLEYRANWS regarding Naplei, which were
sent to this country from Paris, for that purpose.

Farewell Address of the Duchess d'ANcoucEms to
the inhabitants of Bourdeata :
" Brave Borddals—Your fidelity is well known to me—your
devotion, unlimited, does not permit you to foresee any danger:
but my attachntrot tor you, for terry Frenchman, directs me to
foresee it. My stay in your city being prolonged might mgrs.
vale drcumstanees, and bring down Ilium you the weight 01 inn-
geauce 1 have not thr•rouragc to behold Frenchmen unhappy,
and to be the cause of their nit•tortune. I leave you, brave Our-
dada, deeply penetrated with the feelings you have espressed,
and can assure you that they sh;li be faithfully transmitted to the
King. Soon. With GOD'S a.tistance, under happier auspices, you
shall witness my gratitude, and that otthe Prince whoa you love.
