ANOTHER LETTER, SAME DATE.  " All our harmony and great intimacy with the Turks, which, confidering all things, has been really fingular during the campaign, has been fatally interrupted within there few days by the atrocious event of the afraffination of the BErs.— What adds to the infamy of the circumftance, is the perfidy with which it was attended, they having breakfaftcd with and received prefents from the CAPTAIN PACIiA, on the very day in which they were murdered in his barge, into which they had been invited by him, on a pretext of being condtifted to pay a vifit of ceremony to the Ettgiifh Generals at Alexandria. The jult indignation tertified by the Commander in Chief, upon hearing of this horrible aft, did infinite crcdit to his heart both as a foldier and as a man : and his manly and generous refolution to liberate the furviving Bets, who had efcaped the general mafracre, as well as all, the Mamelucks who were in the bands of the Turks, and alto to reclaim the bodies of the murdered Bays, was carried into died by General STUART, (who was immediately ordered to march to the Turkifh camp, at the head of a confiderable force, for that purpofe) with his charafteriflic fpirit and promptitude. IBRAHest Bay, and all the other Beys of his party, were, we underftand, to have been feized by the GRAND VIZIFR, at Cairo, on the fame day, for the purpofe of fending them to Conflantinople, to receive rewards and honours, as was the pretext here; but, on receiving the Commander in Chief's demand (which was immediately difpatched) for their releafc, together with the notice of his decifive and firm proceedings on the rub. jeft &re, his Highnefs will no doubt deem it prudent to comply with the requifition. 4, The unfortunate Ossi am, and the other afarfinated Beys, whore bodies were reftored, were buried with every military honour, near Alexandria : they had each twelve or thirteen fabre or dagger wounds. The reafon why the Rican made a difficulty in reftoring the bodies (which he did) was a with to fend their head: as trophies to Confiantinople.—Perhaps it is not an incurious fad, that a principal portion of the troops employed on this occafion to enforce the Commander in Chief's demands upon the PAC A, viz. the regiments of Sruaar and DILLON, with the 13th, had been reviewed a very few days before, with great pomp, by his Highnefs, and all the Turkifh Officers."  A melancholy accident happened yefterday in the Borough : as Tome workmen were at work repairing a houfe, part of the roof gave way, by which one man had his leg broke, and another materially bruifed, but happily no lives were loft. A (hocking accident happened yeflerday morning,at one of the new houfcs near Guildford-tireet two carpenters were at work at the front of a houfe in the balcony, which unfortunately gave way, and the poor men fell into the area, by which one had the misfortune to fraFturte-his lknll ; he wac taken to the Middlefe: Hofpital, where, in frite of every immediate afli►lance, he expired in a few hours ; the other man, we hear, is likely to do well.  For fomc time pall a number of Families of great refpeelability near Mary-la-bonne, have difcm vered that they were robbed of many valuable articles. It naturally became an obeli of attention to difcover the robbers, and by inquiries at the (hops of diffetent pawnbrokers, it was found that the daughter of arefpc,Erahle newfm•in had been very active in pledging a variety of articles be. longing to Colonel
