BAHIA, JANUARY 26.

The brig Edward, with a valuable cargo from Li•
verpool, and the November packet, have arrived.—
The former, on the 1 lth instant, was pursued by the
American sloop of war Hornet, and the latter, on the
13th. A few days previous to the arrival of the Ed-
ward, several boats were placed along the coast with
the promise of reward should they succeed in putting
the letters given to them on board any British vessel
that should appear ; and two of these letters being
put on board the Edward, the warnin,, she received
was the means of her escape. The Hornet was close
in with the land on the 230.

Admir4l DJXON, in the MONTAGUE, arrived yester-
day from Rio Janeiro. An American schooner kept
company with him for some-time, sailing round him.

Paris Papers to the 13th instant arrived last night.
ZONAPARTE has at length set out for the army, and
is by this time at the head-quarters, which are pro-
bably at aentz, for the Duke of Neufchatel, (BER..
'MIER) the celebrated Bulletin writers was daily ex-
pected there.

In the mean time the Paris Journals have put forth
a most flattering picture of the state of the half infant
and half superannuated army. In all the actions with
the Russians on the banks of the Elbe, the latter were
uniformly successful, and if they meet with a reverse,
it is, as was the case with MottaNeS corps, because
the General is killed. But they have another mis-
fortune to complain of, arising out of the "Treasons
of General D'Yottu." The Officer who succeeded
MORAND was, it seems, a Saxon, and it is insinuated
that his treachery led the way to a partial and tem-
porary success on the part of the Russians.
Indeed, it may be easily seen, from the extracts
which we have given, that the French place no de-
pendence now upon any of their allies ; for in the
frothy programme, or avant kropos, of the new drama
about to be enacted in Germany, which we have
given from the Journal de ?Empire, not a word is said
of " our good and faithful allies," and even Austria
is entirely forgotten. Much stress is laid by the
• French Journalists upon the circumstance of the for-
tresses in the rear of the Russians being still in pos-
session of French garrisons. This can only apply to
the case of Dantzic, which, it is true, has not yet
surrendered, because the Russians have not pressed
the siege in a way to endanger the lives of the inno-
cent inhabitants ; but before the garrison of Dantzic
can make a diversion in favour of their brethren, the
Russian and Prussian armies must be annihilated,
and the spirit of insurrection extinguished before it
has well grown into a flame. Magdeburgh is still
also in the possession of the French, and it seems to
form a nucleus of tolerable strength; but we presume
that when the main bodies of the allied armies come
up with their field trains, Magdeburgh must fall.

A letter from Bilboa, dated the 30th of March,
tvhich w.is received yesterday, contains the following
logreezbie intelligence:—" The French have been
r.mpletcly defeated in an attempt to take the forti-
fied pobifun of Castro; LONGA came to our assis-
tance with 8000 men. The enemy have experienced
* great loss ; numbers of their wounded have arrived
here."

Nine waggons loaded with bullion and gold dust,
and under a military guard, arrived this morning
from Portsmouth at the Bank. This valuable cargo
was brought partly by the Amelia frigate from the
Coast of Africa, and by the Praideut from the Cape.
