that a number of Letters and Bills of Exchange had

The French Government there presented the Bills for

saved thcir pockets and lives.

both for-himself, and in the name of his successors,
in order to dem tnd, either of the present or the In-
ture Cortes, tll,l `roper controul over the decision of

A long and animated dtscussion followed the

gency, the lett.r received should be returned to D.
Jose Colon, in order that he may explain with more

The very large outward bound fleet is still debased
at Cowes, where nearly 300 ships almost bk:k up
the Middle passage. The towns of Cowes and New.
port, in the hie of Wight, are quite enlivened, and
ti.eir streets thronged with Officers of almost every
regiment in the service. It is very desirable that this
fleet, which has been so ',try long detained, could sails
as it convey. to Pertugal, Cadiz, and the Mediterra-
nean, various st area, of which our armies in thtise
quarters are in great want.

The Peace transport, No. 144, arrived yesterday at
Harwich, having on board Irish Militiamen e. and the
IMaisters transport, No. 18, has sailed for Yarmouth
Roads to join convoy.
The badness of the weather bits prevented the
landing of the North Devon Militia, who are on

When the Roscommon and King's County Regi,
ments were reviewed at Piymouth tin Monday, Ge-

in which they advanced to the charge of bayonets, in
double quick time, that he requested their Officers to
put them again through the movement. declaring that
he had never.seen any thing to equal it !
Friday se'nnight two transports 4vith the remainder
of the Tipperary regiment Militia, about 500, ar-
rived at Chatham. They embarked on the tlst of

about, or delayed by contrary winds.
• Saturday evening a private belonging to the Tip,
iperary Militia, fell out of a transport near the Float-
ing bridge at the' end of Chatham Dock-yard, and
was unfortunately drowned.
A route arrived at Plymouth, en Wednesday, for
the King's County regiment of Militia, recently ar-
rived from Ireland ; and the first division of them
will commence their march on Monday next, for
Maidstone, in Kent.—ln consequence of this arrange-
ment, the Somerset regiment is to remain in that
district.

The depot of the 85th Regiment is removed from

AU the Meiical Staff that can he spared from the
Home Service, are ordered to hold themselves in rea-
diness to embark for Portugal. The inference drawn
from this is, that sickness is very prevalent in our

from change of tood and climate, part►cularly as it re-
gards the reinforcements lately sent out.
