The fignal for failing was difplayed onboard eterf

off this port, having under her convoy a few trent-
ports with troops, to' Oin the expedition. Report
(Ives, that•twe Brigadiers are to join with the addi-
tional force. Every. foldkr heit Teems animated
with enthuliaftic delight and joy, at being command-
ed by a General of the firft abilities, and higheit re.
putation.

It is a lingnlar fadt, thaton.the fire appearance of

told voce, He is the man for our money,' tacit att
impreffion don his martial figure and' diningoiffied
name excite in the bofoms of private foldiers, as well
as their more enlightened Officers. When the troops
returned from Brigade.field-days, it is impodible to
repeat the obfervatians made on Sir D. BAIRD. whoth
they.lned never feat before ; in Aunt, had a demi-
god affumed, the commaod, he could not have met ,
