As good* the intelligence reached the Admiralty,'
orders were issued to the several Port Admirals to
send instant help, as our Readers will see by the snb-
jnined letter from Mr. CHOICAR to Lloyd's; but we
consider it as a most fortunate circumstaace that Ad-
miral HOLLOWAY has even anticipated the orders that
41:ave thus been issued :

°react, Ortega& 20.
Sm—l am commanded by my Lords Commissioners of the
Admiralty to acquaint you, for the information of the Committee
for managing the affairs of Lind 's, that Captain Hall, of his
Majesty'. ship the Lyra, has arrived at this offices that he in-
forms me, that he bad experience.' severe easterly gates in the
chops of the Channel, ever since the teih ultimo, and that It
was with the grsivest ddlcuhy that hi. Majesty's ship was ena-
bled to reach Bantry Bay on the 14th instant. The Captain also
reports, that a great number of merchant ships were in the chops
of the Channel, and he fears that many ci them must be In great
distress for provisions, and be' also apprehends that many have
been driven to be nOrthward of their usual course, in their at-
tempts to reach Ireland. My Lords, therefore, further direct me
to acquaint you, that they have in consequence issued Malarial
orders to the several ports, directing the Admirals to send assist-
ance into the curter pointed out by Captain Hall.

The project of MAHOISZT Au, the Viceroy of
Egypt, to make himself the independent Sovereign
of that country, aid to seise also on the territories of
Tunis, Algiers, and Tripoli, excites much speculation.
If it be correct, that he hat actually made overturn
to this and other Courts, proposing, in the event of
success, to put an entire end to the piracies of the
Barbary Powers,t it is very possible that some encou-
ragement may be given to him in his project, but of
course no direct interference in Isis favour can be in-
stantly looked for.,
We have long considered it as inimical to the inte-
rests of humanity, that such a country as Egypt
should have continued so long under such a miserable,
system of government ; and disgraceful to Europe
that the inhabitants of the southern shores of the
Mediterranean should have been permitted to carry
on their piracies, not only almost with impunity, but
actually rewarded by subsidies and presents fur
making war on the States of Europe aad carrying
their Wiens into slavery.
It might have counteracted the views of politicians
to have suffered the French to retain possession of
Egypt, but it would certainly have tended to improve
the condition of the inhabitants. If high political
c • nsiderat ions rendered it indispensible that we should
endeavour to dispossess them, wily, after gatoing our
object, by real conquest not from the Tanks but from
the French—why was it so soon abandened to its
lurmer masters It has been matter of deep regret
with many, that the -conquest was not attached to
the possessions of the British Crown. No power on
earth could have wrested it from us s and as a market
and interpot for our manufactures, could aeon have
been rendered moreimportant than aU our West India
possessions united ; while the returns would have
consisted of the richest productions of the Tropical
Climates.

However, such regrets being now unavailing, it is
certainly worthy of deep consideration, whether our
own interests as well as those of the native inhabitants
might ant be greatly promoted by every countenance
that could be afforded to the designs of httifoascr Au?

In a preceding column we bave given some inte.
resting extracts from the German Papers, on the
subject of the late eztraordinAry attest of Colonel
MAssaKaacit. It has operated. we are told, like an

electric shock throughout all Germany. With the
exception of three Journals, which are immediately
ender the controtd of the King of Palma, the whole
of the Journals of Germany have condemned this
arrest as a most unjustifiable aggression on public
order, as well as individual right. The alarm with
which it had filled all persons of reflection, will, it
is thought. be ultimately productive of benefits to
the community, which its author little anticipated.—
Tyranny very frequently overshoots its Marks and
this seems to be the case in the present instance with
the Prussian Government. In whatever way it may
act, the consequent*: can only be to its own injury.
Were it to liberate tilassettuacir, it would be sup-
posed to act through fear; if it proceeds to try him,
and he happens, as be ought, to be acquitted, it will
be covered with aH the disgra:e of an oppression as
malignant as lawless; if he is condemned, the sea.
fence will but aggravate the indignation which the
illegality of the arrest has excited, and the odium
against a Govannsent which could condescend in so
flagrant manner to set every thing like law and jus-
tice at defiance.
