We are happy to be able, from authority, to
contradict the reports which have been circula-
ted relative to Elf Bey. 1t does not appear to
be founded on truth that he fpoke with difre-
fpe6f of England, much lefs that he went over
to the French intereft in Cairo. The fact is,
that he never reached Cairo. He embarked at
Roletta to go up to Cairo, and the following let
ter, with which we have been tavoured, will
fhew that he iaved himfelf by a miracle from in
evitable dearuStion.
Aevandria, 1873 Feb,wary, 1904.
"The fate of Elf Bey mnt naturally interef
the minds of the inhabitants CT London, among
whom he refded 10 long; and the romantic
manner in which he effected his elcape, may a.
mufe one of their idle hours Il party OF Al

his valuable property, at Rofetta, to proceed to

& prey 70 the rapac;outnefs Of the troops, he

accompanies the Jerm, to carry the pafengers

fhore. Having dfcovered camp of Bedouins,
at a comfortable diitance, he determined to
feek protection there, nor was he deferred from
his purpofe, by being told that the Sheik of that
tribe had formerly been deeply injured By him.
Confiding in the laws Of hospitality, he walked

may ea6ly conceive, his route remains an incom-

was informed OF TIE conduct of his wife, he

There was report current yeferday, that
the new Emperor of the French bad given liber>
ty to all the Engliih confined in France. This
act OF magnaninity was coniidered as an omen
OF moderation, and made a fenIible mpre iiion
on the Funds. Omnium roie to 3-4 for the
account.--We do not know the value of the
authority upon which the report was circu-
lated.
An addrefs, Ggned by the French reiiding at
Coattantinope, appears in the Moniteur of the
18th lift. it turns upon the late attempt OH the
life of Bonaparte but in point of adulation, it
does not go 10 far as fome which were manufac-
tured on the fame occahon III the more north
ern latitudes of Europe.
1t appears from the laf French papers, that
Bonaparte has lately made promotion of .Ad-
mira!s, and that Admiral Gantheaume is APP
pointed to take the command at breft. Such
intelligence as this might appear to jutify the
iuppohton, that fome ferrous deigns were en-
tertained by the French government, of giving
Its marine power an opportunity of difplaying
iticf; and that the Brett feet would venture to
put to fea. But though fuch notices as tbefe
may very properly quicken official vigilance,
we do not f1atter ourielves with the expectation
of fuch an event. Many predominant reafons,
we think, operate againt fuch rifque, particu-
,
of Bonaparte's conduct is a fyftem of art6ce,
and what was faid of a celebrated ancient, may
be applied to him, /" that when he looked to-
wards the eait, he was contemplating fome OBJ
jcct which engaged his mind in the welt" The
fucceiiive vauntings in the French papers, rela-
tive TO the preparations for invading this coun-
try, were never conGdered by us as prognoitica-
ting the near approach OF this event neither did
the preience of Bonaparte on the coat induce
us to expect, that the invading notilia would
Immediately put to iea nor when we were in
formed, within thefe few days, that the French
had been feen by our cruizers embarking gun
carriages, &c. on board their veiIes at Bouloene,
did we feel any dilpoftiou to believe, that the
tranquility of our flores would be fpcediiy dis
turbed by the appearance of an invading enemy.
But were it to be propagated By the French GO
vernment that the intended expedition againft
us was laid aide, we ihould then expect very
ihortiy to hear it announced, that the French
army ofinvaiion had quilted the fecurity of its
harbours, ard would foon add new glory to the
Britiih name.
