The head-quarters of ths Army of Flanders are
now at Oftend. The troops are ready for the grand
expedition. A great number of feamen, put in re-
quifition, are alto afembled in that port, as are
likewife the merchant 'rads prefed for the fervice
of the State, the gun-boats, flat•bottomed boats,
Lunches, &c. built in the principal cities of our De•
partments. The order for embarking is expelled
every moment ; the troops never 'hewed more zeal
and alacrity than at the prefent time. It is thought,
however, that we fhall silt enjoy the pretence of the
Ftssr Coml. at Mend.

Thu new dent al in Chief, the Counfellor of State,.
Mil MONT, arrived here with five Adjutants on the
istb. After having given in his credentials, he the
nett day iffumed the command of the French and
Batavian armies. On the day of his arrival he vifited
the French Atithaltador, Ds Samoiiviii.r, with
whom he dined with Lieutenant General Vic re a.—
He will have the command of the troops which from
oar Republic are deftined to aft againft England, and
which compote the right wing of the expedition. The
troops at Bruges will form the centre, and thofe at
Boulogne the left wing. In the beginning of next
month our troops in the Tent Will be ready for fea ;
thofe at Flufhing are steady Co. It is therefore ex•
petted that before the middle of next month the ex-
pedition will fail. Tomorrow General MAILMONT
will review the troops at Fluffing and in the Texet,
and then fix his head quarters at Utrecht, as the
centre of the Republic.

The extraordinary fenfation occafioned by the
feizure of Englifh goods in the Wand of Walcheren
and Batavian Brabant has confiderably Athfided.,
fusee the circomftances attending it have been snore
accurately known. This meafure was dire, ed by
the French minifter at war, on the 3oth of January.
Among the Englifh commodities are fpecified ma-
nufaElures of wool and cotton, nankeens, muffins,
Englifh carpets, cotton and woollen caps, hard-ware,
Englifh porcelain and glair ; whatever has been
taken away which is not one of thefe articles, has
been reltored. It was ordered that the fearch Ihould
be made by the Batavian aad French officers of the
cuftoms conjointly, or by the latter only if the for-
mes refuted. In the town of Veere no Englifh goods
were found, and in Middleburg fo few that General
Moamar ordered them to be reflored to the owners.
The goods feized at Flufhing were packed up, and
Pealed by the owners themfelves, and taken out of the
waggons in which they had been put to be carried
into the French territory, aad conveyed to a depot
at Flulhing, where they will remain till further
orders arrive from Paris. General Mostar has
given an account of thefe milder meafures, in a letter
tranfmitted to the government of Zealand, in con-
feqnenee of the remonstrance they adds-tired to him.
The General, however, has complained of fome of
the expreffions of this remonfirance. He obferves,
that the Englifh trade in the Ifland of Walcheren
has hitherto beta of little confequence, that the
meafores taken will completely prevent the commer-
cial fpeculations of the enemy in this country, and be
as advantageous as the gaining of a vittory.
From Batavian Brabant, Breda, Bergen-op-Zoom.
&c. about 90 waggons laden with Englith goods have
beets fent to Antwerp : their value is estimated at
two millions of livres. But as the greater part of them
are not Englillt, but manufadured in Bamvian Bra-
bant, it is expeded that they will be reftored.
According to accounts from Cleves of the tsth,
Rear Admiral Sroar hill continues there under ar-
refl. He is guarded by two foldiers ; all his papers
have been leafed up and fent to Paris, whence a fpeedy
decifion concerning him is ezpeBed.
It is ezpeaed that the new General in Chief of the
French army, Idaanowx will like wife take the chief
command of the army in 'Hanover.

On the 12th inft. couriers were fent off from-this
city to Peter!burg, London, and Paris. Our govern
went has hitherto exerted itfelf very aflively for the
refloration of Peace.

A Ruffian Officer, who has arrived from Dalmatia
as a courier, and has remained here fome time, has
fet off with difpatches, which have arrived from St.
Peterfburgh, for the Ruffian Corfu' in the ports of
the Adriatic, oppofite the cualt of Italy.

CONSTANTINOPLI, TES. IS.
- _ - - -

While the capital of Egypt was agitated by conti-
nual commotions, the city and port of Alexandria
enjoyed the greateft tranquillity. This happy date
at things ccafed about the Bth of July left, the period
of the arrival of Ali Pacha, envoy of the Ottoman
Porte, with the title of Viceroy of all Egypt. The
metres to which Ali Pacha a=d his fatellites pro
ceeded, excited the comphints of the Agents of the
foreign Powers. Explanations took place, and the
refult was an accommodation, in which redrefs of
all grievances was flipulated. In confequence of this
event, the French Sub-Commiflioner, and other
Frenchmen rerldClit there, as well as the other agents
sshu had retired on board the Ottoman fleet, return-
ed to land, where they were received in a very diftin-
guithed manner, after being fainted on quitting the
Bert with 17 guns.
We arc informed alto, by letters from Cairn, that
the Mamelukes exeicle great oppreffion in col-
kding the fums due to the Albanele. The inhabi-
tants are afraid of being plundered and maffacred in
their houfes ; and as the waters of the Nile have not
rifen to the ufual height, that capital is threatened
with a famine. Difunion prevails among the Ma.
rodukes themfelves, who are continually impofing
contributions : the French have been exempted.—•
Ofman Bcy poffelfes all the authority : the Englilh '
have given him valuable prefents, and they have alfo
promsfed him alLflance front India.

Ye(erday morning the KING walked for a confider-
able time in the gardens of the Q2ecn's Houle ; and
at t 3 o'clock the LORD CHANCELLOR had an audience
of his MAJESTY. The Ql/1111, with the Princeffcs
ELIZASETH and MARY, took an airing on the road to

( Signed as before.)

This day two Gottenburgh Mails arrived. They
bring fome details refpelting the preparations of the
enemy, of which we bare beard fo much, but not of
a very recent date.

We have alfo received the MOlBiliarl to the 28th ult.
inclufive. They are chiefly filled with addreffes to
the FIRST Cossut., congratulating him on efcaping
the effeas of the late confpiracy.

In the preceding columns our Readers will find
every thing worthy of notice brought by the above.

Yefterday Government received fome important
inforination from France, by the way of Jerfey.—
Rumour Rates, that another plot has been formed
againft the Confular Goverment, and that a counter
revolutionary army is in motion in the weftern de-
partments ; bet of this we cannot fpeak with any
confidence.

It is confidently afferted that General Ptcatcao

We have made enquiries to aliertain whether Pi-
cv soau has arrived in town, but they have not con-
firmed the rumour, and we are rather inclined to be-
lieve there is a miftake in the report. Indeed we
know that accounts have been received by Govern.

ment, which tend to corroborate the account in the
Dutch Journal. Yefterday a perfon of the name of
Aiinsasos, who came to England three days ago in
a Pruflian veffel that was detained by the Goardthip
off Southend, arrived in town. Asoaasos is a re-
ilation of Jonsson the fmaggler. He Oates that Pt
CHIPGRU has been arrefted, and is in confinement ;
that MOIIAU has been tried and found guilty, bat
has not yet been executed; and that the prevailing
opinion in France is that he will not fuller death but I
be banned. He flames farther, that the number of I
boats at Mains amount to between three and
four hundred ; that the troops are daily exercifed in
embarking and difembarking; and that the general
opinion there is, that the ;ovation will certainly be
attempted, and at so very diftant period.

Mr. Pm Rated lati night in the Houfe of Com-
mons, that he means on Thurfday to bring forward
a motion for a comparative fiatement of the Naval
Force of the Country at the commencement of the
