T c THE NATIONALAEMIST A gentleman, rho was present . at the first meeting bet w ee n Marslral Beresfura and the Deputation from Bordeaux, has transmitted the following account Immediately after the first ceremonies were over, the Marshal entered into.a most candid and confidential-conversation with the Mayor. He expressed himself highly flattered by the distinguished blinours which had been paid to himself, and by the strong testimonies of .esteem which had been expressed towards the British nation ; but at the same time, he reminded the Mayer and the other Gentlemen present, that it did not depend on. him, or on the Commander in Chief, to determine . how long any co-operation between the British arms and those of the French King might be carried on. He adverted to the fiegociations which were said to be still going on at Chatillon for a general Peace; and observed, they might possibly leach to the necessity of his evacuating Bordeaux. The Mayor replied for himself and his friends, that they wdre well aware of these circumstances—that they knew they were irrevocably committed with Bonaparte: but that their de termination had not Leen lightly taken up—that the reso lotion to resist his tyranny to the utmost was common, not only to the whole of the neighbouring population, but to great nun.bers in other parts of Fiance with. whom they were in correspondence—and that they had neither fear nor doubt of the result." The writer of the letter communica ting this information adds, that he had himself been on a mission to Languedoc ; and that every thing in that quarter promised success beyond the most sanguine expectations..

M. and lasted broadside to broadside, within half-pistal shot, till a quarter before nine, when the Primrose attempted to carry the packet by boarding, but was gallantly resisted, and 40 much damaged, as to oblige hei , to bent oil - at nine o'clock. The Primrose again came down and recommenced the action, which was continued with the same unabated spirit on both sides until ten minutes before ten, when the Primrose hailed, and asked what shit it was ? The mistake was then discovered. The loss on hoard the packet is, Lieutenant and Adjutant Andrews, of the 60th )egitueut (a passenger), and the :Master killed, and ter men wounded. The loss on board the Pr inuose is her Master and tour men killed, and 18 wounded. Motrerr t ANS.—TVS intereAtirg sect, who, like the Israel ites, seem isolated and distinct from the rest of their species, ircibly illustrate the sound policy of English liberality and toleration. It may be a matter of speculation, whether their singular faculty of giving an almost incredible beauty to lir.lks on Bobbin, Net, and Muslin, be the effect of a secret, nke the legends of Braina, is known only to a few, or the mere result of industry unremittingly directed to one single point. Certain it is, their labours are. most important to the community to which they now belong;. their ,works are sought with avidity i n ever y p art of the globe. Where can arise to the mind of the philanthropist a mote pleasing idea than to see the support of thousands thus distributed by •the hands of luxury? It is but justice to say that Mr. EV ANS, of Bond street, has been the means of bringing their pro ductions to the perfection they now exhibit by affording them constant employment, and ingeniously adapting their curious works to the ever varying calls of fashionable de anand.—Vide his advertisement in another part of our paper.
