TNE EXPEDITIONS.

We underhand chat,.,the Expeditions are yevin-
tended to proceed. Indeed we know, that at Ply-
mouth, the Officers in whole department it lies to
hire tranfports, are now engaging a number of chips
for that fervice. The troops which were debarked
Monday and - Tuefdar lea, will probably be re-
•
Obarked in the courfe of the cnfuing week.

Mr. Paounreaw, a King's Mellinger, arrived this
morning about eight o'clock, at the Foreign Office,
from Peterlburgh. This Qfficial communication
from the Court of Peterlburgh, at this particular
period, is certainly of .the very firll importance—
' more efpecially fines it is known that the EblPlllOlll
Aiiziaost has refufed to ratify the Treaty impofed
upon D'OUsitic in Paris.

We find it tteceffary to correct the miflatement of
the march of the 88th and *9th regiment's which
were Paid to be near Ramfgate. Neither of theft re.
,giments, we believe, have left their quarters in Stiffer,
but have been in daily expeelation of marching, for
two mpnths, to Come place of embarkation, which is
not yet determined on.

The fecond -battalion of the 88th regiment, cost, 'I
mended by Colonel WALLACI, is quartered at Hayl.

Tuefday.
We hear that Lieutenant Colonel DIMWIT? ii

in the room of Colonel Youso, who is removed to
Ireland.
Lieutenant' Colonel SANAA; or the New. South
Wales Corps, is appointed an AfLtlant Adjutant Cr

the room of the Hon. Lieutenant Colonel CAPLI. • •

Selves in Egypt, viz. the loth, 28th, 58th, &c. an

The Buffs, Bth, 36th, 88th, and 89th, are ready
to move at a moment's warning, and in hourly ex-
peßation of orders to embark.

The 2d battalions from this country will not be em-
barked for Ireland, tilt tranfports arrive from that
country : theca tranfports will molt probably bring
over complete regiments from Ireland, to join the
Expeditions.

A letter from Ireland lays, Ron our fide of the
