tributed to their fpeedy departure. The City.

nary and extraordinary rev!nues being infufficient
for defraying the great and extraordinary erpences

COOSTANTINOPLI, MARCH 31r..--The Englifh I
Ambaffador here, Lord ELate, has now received
from Admiral KllTlli.circurnfLuitial accounts of
the landing of the Englifh in Egypt. The follow-
ing particulars have been made public :—The
Englifh fleet arrived on the coati of Egypt on the
ift of March; but, partly in confequence of contra-
ry winds, and partly on account of the necelfary
delay in founding the coat, a debarkation did not
take place for eight days. On the Bth of March,
a landing was &II attempted by 3000 men, tin-
der General Moo& 1, at Aboukir, already render-
ed famous by the vi Cory of Admiral ?Ilium.-
The French on this occalion gave the 1130 a dif-
tinguifhed proofs of courage and heroifin. Both
infantry and cavalry roiled into the water to
force back the Englith boats, which were covered
by their gun boats.
The Englifb, after two fevere attacks, having
landed 6000 men, and afterwards the reit of their
force, the French were obliged to retreat into the
fort of Aboukir, which aill defended itfelf on the
isth of March; the Englifh in the mean time ad-
vanced towards Alexandria, leaving a Corps of
;coo men to befiege Aboukir.
The lots of the French on the landing of the
Englifh is not known : their troops were, however,
mach inferior in numbers; they confified of from
3 to 4000 men, which had been drawn from the
garrifons of Alexandria, Rofetta, and Rbamanie.
The lofs of the Englill is kid: to be 100 killed
and Soo wounded. Among the latter are fome
Officers of diflinaion ; Commodore Sir SIDIIIT
SMITH, according to fome accounts, had a horfe
killed under him. Colonel Paoli' difiingnithed
himfelf by his bravery at the landing.
Since the lath the march of the Englifh has
been continually difforbed by attacks from the
French. The latter are collestling their main force
in an entrenched pofition near Pompey's Pillar,
and expea the arrival of confiderable re-inforce.
meats from France.

There is in Alexandria a great quantity of Ar-
tMery, bat only of a (mall claire. Admiral
EstT■ propores to bombard the city on the tea fide,
trilOc General ABERCILOMIII attacks it by land.

According to Tome accounts the C•PT•IN
Pacts• has failed againa Damietta, bat accord-
ing to others he is Qip at Maui, and the GNAND
Viziaa at Gaza, where he daily receives rele-
forcements.

Up to the 14th of Hatch nothing vras known
on the coat of Egypt of the arrival of Englifh
troops from the Eat Indies, cc the caller fide of
Egypt.
Fears are entertained for the Englifh &ct, on
account of the plague, which hat again broken out
in Egypt, and in Syria Rill makes great ravages.
Lammas, APRIL B.—Sir SMART SIIITII COTT,-
raands a corps of marines of 6co man, in the espe.
dition apes& Egypt. The Pastes r, Englith
frigate, has taken two French wilds coming from,
and a bomb-tefel, failing for Alezandria. Among

the prifoners made on board of the latter, were
Generals josses and VERDIER, with the lady of
the latter. The English have not yet evacuated
the Wand of Elba, but are determined, with the
affitance of the inhabitants, to refill even foreign
attacks. The French troops, who, by virtue of
the fecret articles of the treaty of peace concluded
at Florence, are to occupy a par: of the kingdom
of Naples, are now in full march for that country.
A part of the troops that had atembled at Ancora
have taken the fame route. The embarkation
which was to have taken place at Ancona, it is
(aid. will now take place at Otranto and Brindifi.
In the above mentioned fecret articles it is likewife
raid be Ilipulated, that Naples flail pay the funs
of ten millions of livres to France. Gen. Mu RAT,
with other French generals and laff-officers, heard
a folemn mars, at Florence, on Eater Sunday.—
The King and Queen of SARDINIA are arrived',
at Rome.

A►atL EM►taoa has ap-
pointed the Minifler of Finances, Count SAURAIY,
his Ambaffador to the Court of Sr. Peterlburgh,
and prefented him with the Grand Crofs of the
Order of St. Stephen. Betides this Ambaffador,
who is to refide at St. Peteriburgh, his Itaraatm.
111,ajzsTr yefterday appointed the Prince of
Scuwsaztastac, to carry to the new Emperor
ALLIANDII, his congratulations on his fucceffion
to the throne.

General Aasacaomait, in his laft difpatches to
Lord ELGIN, at Conflantinople, having expreffed
hopes that, betides Aboukir, Alexandria would
likewife be taken, tome private letters from Con-
ftantinople mate, that the latter important place
was already in the hands of the Engli(h, which,
however, is not the cafe, according to the accounts
we have at prefent. Agreeably to the accounts
which Lord MIXTO has received from Conftanti-
nople, the Captain Pacha has failed for Aboukir,
with 6000 men, land troops.
In the night of the aoth, a courier arrived here
from Paris,with difpatches from Count Cos METZ it
dated the t Ith, relating to the overtures for peace
between France and England. This courier was
likewife the bearer of the treaty of peace between
France and Naples, the contents of which the
(Iran of NAPLES had not been acquainted with
before. It is Paid, that the French would not
fnifer the courier to pars, whom the Chevalier Ml-
- by whom the treaty was figned, had
Pent off for the Queen.
For each battalion of our troops of the line two
companies of riflemen are now forming, after the
manner of the French army. With rerpeft to the
alterations that are to take place in the army, we
now know, that the Lieutenant-Colonelcies will be
done away by degrees, and that the Colonels and
Majors will have to cotnmand their companies in
perfon, Co that Captains will no longer be wanted.
The denominations, Upper Lieutenant, Under-

Lieutenants, and Enfigns, are to be exchanged for
Fwil, Second, and Third Lieutenant. The al-
teration will produce a confiderable Caving, and
the officers themfelves will be in better circum-
fiances. The difiribution of the Imperial army
in the peace-cantonments will be effeeted in the

following manner : of 211 battalions, 4.7 are to be
Rationed in Bohemia ; 3o in Moravia ; 27 in
Anaria above and below the Enns, 27 in Interior
and Upper Außria, 25 in Italy, !aria, and Dal-
matia; 13 in Hungary ; 24 in Wellerniand Eaftern
Gallicia ; z 8 in Tranfylvania, the Bannate, and
Slavonia.

PARIS JOURNALS.
Toutos, Aram 22. We learn, by the way of
Mahon, that the Ent& have been totally de-
feated in Egypt, in different affairs, which took
place on the 16th and t 7th of April. This news
came by a Tad, difpatched from Alexandria on
the s Bth of April for Toulon ; and which was taken
by the Englilh and carried into Mahon. They
are, it is faid, in the greateff confternation—all
their fquadrons in the Mediterranean are in want
of every thing, and all their crews are lick. The
difEculty of procuring a fupply of proviGons, all
the ports of Italy being (hut, will force them to
quit theft feat, where they are threatened with
epidemic difeafes.—Yearasida Join, May 3.
NMI, MAT The bulletins from Toulon
fay, that a ftrong Eaft wind has conflandy pre.
vaded in the Mediterranean for a fortnight paft,
which renders probable the arrival of the Englilh
veffel at Mahon in (even days. It is certain. there-
fore, that the Engin have news from Egypt,
fince they are maters of the yea, and fince the
wind has been favourable. The filence which they
Wave, and the reports they propagate even
among themfelves of their defeat in Egypt, muff
induce us to think, that their expedition has not
been very fuccefsfuL—y'ssrad dsr Defeo/erre &
