We had marched, during eight days, in want of every thing ; and in one of the botteft climates in thj world. On the morning of the 2d Thermidor, we perceived the Pyramids.

Scarcely had I got the distance conl of two leagues from Salehich, when the aid-de-camp of gen. Kleber arrived with in telligence of the battle which oui squadron Buo had fultained an the 14th Thermidor (Au gust tft.) The communication was so in terrupted that he took eleven days to reach me. On the 18ch Meffidor (July 6) I de- p parted from Alexandria, at which time I conc wrote to the admiral to enter the port of that any city within twenty-four hours, or in cafe the 1 that wap impossible to land fpeadilv ; M the the I artillery and baggage belonging to the army, all tl and to make the best of his way to Corfu. pof ei The admiral did not think it prafticable to houf complete the landing in the position in which fered he then was, being at anchor before the they port of Alexandria, among the rocks, and no • several vessels having loft their anchors.- your He therefore proceeded to Abcuhir, where of y there was goo I anchorage. I f tn t to the ablol admiral some engineers a«d officers of artil- be in lery, who were of opinion with the admi- strati rul, that he could receive no protc&ion from ,'ty n the land, ai d that if the Engiifli ftould divan appear :n the course of the two or three the n days, which would be nueeflary for him to be tw :it is remain at Aboukir, either to land the Ar e c °- tillery, or to found and mark out the route j the t 0 Alexandria ; no other menfure w«os to be I P ur^uc d than to cut his cable, and that it 1C 1 was abfolutcly neceflary ro make as short a ftay as possible at Aboukir.

The admiral had written to me on the 20th of July, that several English frigates were come to reconnoitre, and that he was for tifying himfelf in expeftation of the enemy at Aboukir. This flrangc resolution filitd me with the most lively alarms ; but the time was loft ; for the letter of the 20th did not reach me till the 30th of the fame month. I dispatched citizen Julien, my aid-de-camp, with orders not to leave-Abou or- kir, until he had seen the squadron under the fail. On the 26th the admiral wrote to the me that the English had retired, which mea pea- sure he attributed to want of provisions. Bey I received this letter the 30th by the fame a- courier. The 29th he wrate to me, that the he had at length heard of the victory of the of Pyramids, and the taking of Cairo, and sm- found a passenger for entering the port of nd- Alexandria : that letter I received the sth ted of August. On the night of the firft of be- August the Englifn attacked him. On the he moment he perceived the English squadron -y®i he dispatched an officer to apprise me of his om dispositions and plans ; this officer perished on - on the road. It fecmed to me that Admi al - ral Breuys was unwilling to return to Corfu, " s - before he had ascertained the praftibility of Lln " entering the port of Alexandria ; and that la_ the army, of which he had received no in ier" telligence for a long time, was in a position ra ~ in which it would not be obliged to retreat. 1 m " If in this calamitous event he was to blame, 1 |he has expiated his faults by a glorious death, j |1 he deftinieb have been desirous to prove on , J ' : this occasion, as on so many others, that if 111 1 grant us a great preponderance on the ' e I continent, they have given the empire of the 3 seas to our rivals ; but however great this t '• h reverse, it is not to bcattiibuted to4he sick- '>j lenefs of fortune.
