The MAil due. on Wednefday arrived this day,
but brings little news.
The liege of Porto Ferrajo has not only been
railed, as we learnt by the French papers, but the
French foldiers engaged in it will be obliged to
furrender: the French veffels which affißed have
retired, and feveral tranfports bound with Rores
for the befiegers have been captured by our brave
tars, under the rgallant Admiral Sir Joni( Boa-
LASS WARREN. Could he only fall in with the
isn't:fib's GANTHEAUME, we know he would render
as good an account of him.
All Egypt, except Alexandria, may be con.
fidered as in our hands. The little garrifons, in
different Idler parts, took the benefit, it feems, of
the Treaty of Cairo.

Yeaerday the Duke of 'Cur gave an elegant
entertainment at his villa at Cagle Hill, to the
Duke of You and a fele& party of friends.
We are enabled to (late, on the moll refpedable
authority, that Lord Sr. Hatsit's has taken a
houfe at Mofcow for forme months, in order to be
prefent at the ceremony of the Coronation of the
EMPEROR ALEXANDER, which is to take place in
that Capital next month. His Lordilip will after-
wards return to England, not for any political
motives, but merely on account of his health.

The greater part of the Supplementary Militia,
in Suffolk, who were affembled, have been dif-
miffed, and only a few difciplined veterans fent to
join the refpettive regiments.
The Brechin volunteers have agreed to extend
their fervice to any part of Great Britain, in cafe
of invafion. The propofal, we feel fatisfatlion in
Rating, was nnanimoufly agreed to, by every of-
ficer and private in the corps.

Monday laft the Supplementary Militia affem-
bled at Wells, purfuant to order ; when about one
hundred were feleded to join the regular militia,
and die remainder fent to their homes, each man
receiving two days pay.

The Somerfet-Place Afrociation marched on
Wednefday to the Afrembly Houfe. at Kentith
Town; from whence they proceeded to fire with
ball cartridge at a target. They afterwards fired
four rounds of plain cartridges lira very excellent
(Lyle.

The circumftance which gave rife to the Meet-
ing of the Volunteers at Leeds, was in confequence
of following notice from the Town Clerks. It
is fit to remark, that noother perfons appear tohave
any knowledge of fuch Meetings but therrifelves:—
.. Whereas in this with, and In the neighbouring (lifted,
(evenl illegal and moft.dangerous meetings have been held in
the night time for treafonable and rebellious ptupofes, for the
fubverlion of the eltablilbed Government, and a co-operation
with a French, Invafion, which Meetings It is the determina-
tion of the Civil and Military Power to oppofe with the utmoft
rigour of wili•wy user•ria.
" And whereas many well-difpofed perfnns may attend Inch
aneetinp from curlofity only, Itid therebylneresfe the number
and apparent force of facia traitors
" It is thadore molt eindellik; recommended to all good
and loyal fubjeds, and ether peaceable members of faddy,
that they do abfent thenfelves from fuch meetings, and itrialy
reftrain all their Cavan% children, and apprentice., from at-
tending them, left the innocent fliouki (offer with the guilty."
Lord Trwswourn has purchafed Mr. THORN-
TON'S houfe on Clapham Common. The purchafe-
money was feven thoufand guineas.

FIL IN 3ON • T Pisa Is.—lnFull Drefs, the oblong
fa(hion of putting up the hair with ornaments of
River, and the Veil worn dole on the head, are
now chiefly prevalent. A crefcent of diamond, a
role, an egret, or a feather, appears through the
Veil in front. The Capots are black, with a Robe
of black crape. The white Capots are radiated
tra.nfverfely with a broad white comet ilitchedvp-
on them. Some white filver•fpangled Robes and
tunics, with point-lace and flyer liars, are alto to
be teen. The Girdles are white, and are crofed
and knotted on the back. /wird is, for a colour,
the moil general favourite. Jonquil ribbons are
worn on brown capots. Barktblar is not now
worn : but fky blue is Rill a favourite. Crape
robes of the latter colour are much worn. Role.
colours begin to be in fdhion. The fquare (pawls
are very large, and very much in the Oriental
talk. The wain begins to be lengthened even by
Ladies of the belt talk.
Patrick Johnflone, the private in the •t4th
Light Dragoons, who had deferted from his quar-
ters at Hornchurch, in Eller, has been reamed to
ithe Regiment. The charge of murder preferred
againtl him, was utterly deftitute of truth, being
a mere fabrication of the men who were fent in
parfait of bins, in order to facilitate his deteetion
