The enemy loft about ioo men killed and wounded, and 30 or 40 prifonerji I had now an opportunity of obferviniy minutely the situation of the place, and of forming,from the reports of prisoners, an idea of the drench of the enemy ; when comparing; the difficulties which prefeiued themselves, and the rilk attendant 011 fai lure on one hand, with the prospect of fuccefsj and the advantages to be derived l'fom it 011 the other, I came to the deter initiation of reimbarking the troops, in or- ( der to procted, without delay, on my fur ther defoliation.

Under the BoUrdecux bead, August 20, ivt find the following. Extratt of a letter from Conftautinople, dated July 23. " A tew days ago frelh intelligence reach ed us from Egypt. General Klebr has been murdered, and 4»eneral Menou has succeeded him in com mand. It is reported that a Janilfarv, un der the pretence of delivering a petition to Kleber, stabbed him. General Menou in a letter which he wrote to Sir Sidney Smith, fays, that the affaflin had been purposely frnt from Gazu to commit the murder. But there are fufficirnt reason» to believe to the contrary ; and Menou himfelf is accu sed of having hired the murderer, an Egyp tain in disguise, who was cut to pieces ini. mediately after the alTaflination. Other reports f.iy, that the murderer was prooably a&uatrd by privaw revenge, as the French had committed unheard of cruelties, especially at Bouloc, a suburb of Cairo, ■where they {pared neither women nor chil dren. " What occasions the fupficions agair.ft General Menou, are his Jacobinical princi ples, aud his having been at the head of that French party 111 Egypt, which wai always agairilt the evacuation of that country. | General Kleber; who was as much bs j loved l)y the other party as they hate his j fucceffur, is generally regretted here; and j his death is the more unwelcome to the I people, as he was 011 the eve of adopting the (capitulation of El-Arifch for.the evacua tion of Egypt. Menou immediately broke off chefe negociations, declaring, that he j firlt required the content of his govern mei*. The Porte will not tip arms again, the Grand Vizier and captain Pacha are conjointly to. decide the fate of Egypt by the sword. The former is laid to have completed his army, and liave a reinforce ment of 4j,000 frefli troops under the Pacha of Madeti. The captain Pacha has likewise n strong corps of Albanafe on tioarcl his fleet, and the attack will be made in various points. When the last letters left Gaza, the captain Pacha H.id failed thence with, his fleet. Tichelcbi EfTendi, Lite Payriiafler of the Army of Egypt, has been appointed Minister for Foreign Affairs. He is a man of great talents and influence, and highly esteemed by the Grand Signior." Extra<sl of another letter, fame date. " Wedaily become morecenain, that the Porte has ro farther negotiations with the French in Egypt, and that the war will be resumed The Captain Pacha has concerted the attack to be made upon the' French with the Grand Vi zier at Giza. The troops of the latter will ex ceed 100, coo men. General Koehler, who is w.th his English officers in his camp, will direift him in his operations. The plan is to attack the French in fepjrare bodies by combined di versions. They were said to be reduced to 8000 regulars last January, and they have since lufTered by the plague. " The French in Egypt form two parties, one wilhing, and the oth#r opposing t!l* evacu ation of Egypt. The former it is said to be the stronger of the two- They do not speak much in fa»our of their new rrench commander in chief, Menou, as to his military talents. He is an ex-marquis, and so wavered in h;s mind, that he has for this twelvemonth embraced the Ma hometan religion, and aflumsd the name of Abdullah Bey, which he puts before his own. He has written the following letter to Sir Sid ney Smith 1 " LIBERTY ! " tdUAIITY ! •'FRENCH REPUBLIC ! " Head ijuarterj at Cairo, ill Meflidor, Bth year of the French Kepublicone and ii.divifi- blc. " Menou, commander in chief, to Sir Sidney Smith, commanding his Britannic Majesty's (hip the Tiger. " I have received, fir, the letter which you have done me the honor to write from on board the Tiger, off Khodcs, on the 9th June. As the execrable murder committed upon the com mander in chief, Kleber, has deprived the French army of their leadtr, I have undertak en to command them. As your allies the Turks could not conquer the French atEl-Arifch, they nn4e use of daggers—which dastards alone em ploy to be revenged. A JanifTary, sent from Gaza fortytwu days ago has bacn c'hofen to perpetrate this horrid aft. The French wilh to believe that the Mufiulmen alone are guilty. The murder (hall be known to all mtions, who all have ihe fame interell to revenge it The conduit which you, Sir, have yourfelf observed relpeiting the Convention concluded at El-A rile!*, plainly (hews how I must ail. You de manded the ratification of your Canrt ; and I too molt likewise demand that of the Consuls, who now govern the French Republic, for thi treaties that may be concluded between the ar my under my command, the Enghfli and their allies. It is now the only legal and autheHtic method to be adopted in negociation. I, too, deleft the horrors of war, like you, Sir, and wifli to fee an end to the miiery it occalions.— But I will in no refpeft act any wife contrary to the honor of the French Republic and, her armies. lam perfectly convinced that you en tertain the fame sentiments of good faith, hon or, and morality, which ou>;ht to chari&rize treaties conclud-d between nations. " The French Republicans are Grangers to those ftratigems of war,.r>f which Mr. Morris's papers make mention. They know no other rule of cjndudl, but courage in battli, genero- Gty after vi<3«ry, ai.J the llri<£t obfervanse of treaties. " One hundred and fifty F.nglifhnien are prisoners of war here. Hid I only listened to Rejfciblican g-nerofuy, I would have sent them back, without confiderinjj them as prisoners, for they have been taken on the court of Egypt, and without arms, and 1 aVn convinced the Gonfuls would have ap proved of my conduA. But your allies, the Turks, detain the Citizen and Ghirf of Brigade Boudet, Adjutant of General Kle ber, though his peifon ought to have been I'acred, even to barbarians, for he went on a parley. " I have thus been forced again ft my will and inclination to use reprisals against your Countrymen ; but they fliall be rdeafed the moment cizen Boudet reaches Damieta. He Ihill there be exchanged for Muftapha Pacha, and other Turkish Commiflarics. If, as I make no doubt, you pofTcfo in fluence with your alius, this affair will soon be lettled. Your honour is interefled in it, and it conceini 159 of your Countrymen " I have the honor to icpeat to you, Sir, that with an enthusiastic joy I (hall soon ter minate a War which has so long dillurbed the whole world. It behoves the French and Englifli Nations to esteem, and not to dellroy each other; but it they treat toge ther, it mufl be on conditions equally 110- horable to both, and equally conducive to their refpe£tiv« welfare.
