NAN, No. 11, Cannon-row, Parliament-street, West-

mit sten
Yesterday the Duke of YORK held a Levee at his
Office in the Horse Guards, which was very nume-
rously attended, there being between 70 and 80 Of-
ficers, &c. present ; among whom were--
Lieutenant-Generale Sir John Murray, Linsingen, and Haar •
mond; Generale Goldie and Morshead; Major-Generals D.
Campbell, Deakin, Lumley, andCalcraft ; and the Lord Lieu-
imam of Ireland.
The 23d Dragoons passed along the Kent-road
this morning, on their way for embarkation for
Belgium.
Three troops of the Royal Horse Guards (Blues)
and the 59th Regiment, embarked and sailed yester-
day from Dover for Ostend with a fine wind.
Orders have been sent to the Cape of Good Hope
to reduce two troops of the 21st Dragoons, stationed
there.
The West Kent Militia commenced recruiting by
beat of drum, in Maidstone and its immediate vici-
nity, on Thursday last, and in the short space of
four days, enlisted upwards of fifty fine young men
for that regiment.
We understand, that the companies of the several
Regiments whose depots are in the Isle of Wight, arc
to be formed forthwith into a provisional battalion,
sad to be sent to join Field. Marshal the Duke of
'WI:WM:ITO:7'S army in the Netherlands.
The 40th Regiment (3d battalion) was last week
inspected at Plymouth Dock ; when SO men, who had
.received injuries in the Peninsula, were sent to the
Veteran Battalion.
RAMSOATE, MAY 2.—Sailed last evening for Os.
tend the Swift extra packet, with Lord GREENOCK,
Permanent Assistant Quarter-Master-General, and
several Military Officers of note, on board. His
Lordship took over with him in the Swift some of the
most beautiful horses we have seen embarked here fin-
a length of time. Two troops of the Royal Horse
Guards (Blue) are now embarking for Belgium, and
it is thought will get to sea this afternoon's tide: the
other two troops of this fine regiment, destined for fo-
reign service, arc gone to Dover from Canterbury for
embarkation.—The Impress Establishment has been
re-appoin'ed here, and many valuable hands have
been picked up.—Three r. at. A French boat, from
Boulogne, with preserved fruit, &c. has just entered
our harbour. The people state, that they are taught
to believe that no war will take place, though the
French Government are arming at all points, as ii
war had already commenced.

The following has been given as an Address of the
National Guard of Amiens to all the National Guards
of the Kingdom : •
" At a nuubent whim Ilon.iparte, putting in opera:ion all that
:mains to hint of hint:llsln: 11L.A11.1, wish' an arbitrary and
Ivspotic act to compel ue. to lake the most infamous part that
-voy was beard of, and to liupp.rt an usiitp-,1 throne; we take
ntr lionour, the country, and 11111 Klqc to 111eNS, that 110 One
shall try,- be ably to nuke Cu, arm in drteree tit a man whom licil
is its wrath has vorilbytl from 1:4 gulphs.

" We are, :! is said, menaced by an invasion of enemies—no,
they arc our it Inds: they came to restore to trance its
mate Soverzign, of whom the treason of the army has deprived it.
Who was it that recalled Bonaparte to trance ? Who w.ae they
who betrayed their King Murder to place on the Throne this vile
pierce/par It wu the army. Well, flop, let the army defend
olterr:' bursa are sentimeuts of the National thrall Bonaparte says
that the Bourbons arc bringing toreiguei s lieu France. What !
it he had not come to defile our soil, we should still have been at
peace with all Europe.
" Sebastiant is coining to snake us take up arms. We all
swear that if this satellite of Bonaparte enter. our walla with
pro-consular powers, and with the design to organize **de-
grading a measure, shall there find the chastisement due to
his crimes; and woe to the traitors who shall dare to second his
infamous projects !
" The rallying cry of the National Guards is,' Live the
King! Live the Bourbons ! Death to the tyrant, and the bri-
gands who have supported him In his criminal enterprise!'
" Frenchmen, the day approaches whets you will see floating
on all your towers the white flag, the flag without stain, the
symbol of happiness. LIVE THE KING !"

The letters and papers hy the George Canning,
trim the River Plate, have been delivered, and they
are of the date of February ; from Buen)s Ayres
the accounts from the mouth of the river are of the
14th of the month. The following is an extract
from one of the letters :

" But Nos Atats,Fis. 10.

" The north bank of the river is over-run by- aC. hiet called
Alta toes, formerly in the service of this Government, but now
at war with it. He has devastated the waule of that country,
and has handled the Buenos Ayres troops su roughly that it is
determined to abandon that side altogether. It is reported, and
generally believed, that RONDZAU, who commands the Buenos
Ayres troops in Peru, has captured the advanced guard of
Piz ut LA,the General of the Royalists, consisting of 1,5U0 men.
This success would give him a decided superiority, and enable
him shortly to open to us the lucrative commerce of Potosi.
there is also a rumour, which however is little credited, that a
revolution has taken place at Lima, and that in consequence of it
the Viceroy has been expelled."
HALIFAX, MARCH 29.---New BLOCKADE.--Tha
Spanish Admiral Don JUAN GAVALLO has notified,
from Porto Santo, to the British Admiral Dunsta ‘I,
thas he has instituted a strict and rigorous blockade
of all the ports and places in the Spanish American
Provinces of Venezuela, which are occupied by the
Insurgents.
New York Papers, to the 26th ult. contain the
Official Dispatches of the American Military Com-
manders, relative to the capitulation of Fort Bowyer.
The news of the peace arrived soon after the surren-
der of the fort, which took place on the 11 th of Fe-
bruary. A detailed account is given of the capture
of his Majesty's schooner the Sr. LAWRENCE, Lietre
rant J. E GORDON, Commander, by a Baltimore pri-
vateer of superior force, called the Chasseur.
The consequences of the late serious affray at Dart-
moor Depot have been, orders for the immediate em-
barkation of the whole of the prisoners, without wait-
ing for the arrival of vessels Irwin America. The
first division embarked at Plymouth, on Thursday las'
on board the Brunswick transport, and instantly sailed
with a fair wind for their native or adopted country.
Many of these captives have expressed a strong desire
to remain in England, or to be permitted to go whither
they pleased ; but this it has not been thought proper
to permit. -
Orders have been received at Chatham Dock-yard
to get ready immediately ten flat-bottomed boats, and
that a similar number should be kept constantly in
readiness as 4 part of the estab'ishment of that de-
partment.
