LONDON* May 29. Buonaparte, of date the 18th, Vrites to the miniller of the in terior, that in three day* a ll would be over in Pied mom. We may therefore foon expcft important news from that quar ter. General Melas, thus for midably threatcried, muff jffeni blc all his forces; and if he ha not already taken Genoa, he will probably be induced V' abandon the enterprise for his forces do not admit of being di vided into two divifions, fuffi cibnt both to cope with the ar *ny of Buonaparte, and to withfland the combined efforts of Maflena and Souchet. To this theatre of war, therefore, every eye is dire&ed. The events which it is about to exhi bit involve the fortune of the campaign and of the war. The Monitcur Bates, that the Auftrians are preparing to quit the Grifons, and to retire info Tyrol. Should this prove t»ue, the French, as the fame pape alfcrrs, mufl foon be matters of all fhc pa fifes leading to the Ty to I and Italy.

June 4. WAR IN EGYPT. A mod extraordinary and un txpc&cd event has occurred in this quarter fine* the date of the report comraumcaied in our laft retrofpeft ; and that is, that gen, K'eberwho refided behind with bis army, and did not accompa nv the oncers that have already Jeache’ Toulon, Iras had an en gagement with the army of the Grand Vizier, and a&uaiiy jLughtc.ed tea thoufand of them routed ail the reft, who have ever fince been flying in every poffioie direction. The this unexpe&cd event remains hkcwife, at prefent in volved in much miltery ; but this is alfo generally referred to' the politics of Great-Britain. The common report is, that on the arrival of the French troops at Alexandria, for embarkation, they found the fort blocked up by lord Keith, in conlcquence of rhe convention of Sir Sydaey bmitn not having been ratified at home, All, therefore, that Remained to be done was, to pro hibit immediately the entrance ol the Turkifh army into Cairo; to retain polleflion ot the for s not furrendcred ; and to hazaid a general engagement. I hi was piobably a rencounterthe I urks as little cx petted as the French ihemulvcs; and undilaplmcd and unprepared as they were, fh&UP whole armament, collected at fuch an infinite expencc, and requiring fuch a long period of time for arrangement, has been completely cut to pieces and all Egypt once more become the unrivalled polleflion of France. There is another report, howe ver, in the mail of yefterday morning, that the engagement was brought on in conlcquence of the l urks having maflacred, in cold blood, a large body of french foldiers, and many of their men of lettcis. Authentic intelligence has been received, that the Ruffian ambaffador at our court, baron Kahtlchef, had been recalled, and that a Charge d* Affairs would in the meanwhile, manage the affairs of Ruffia. We have learned at the lame time, chat ncgociations for peace were carrying on between Ruftia and Fiance, at Berlin, under the mediation of the court of Pruf lia. An Englifti courier has arriv ed at Leghorn Lorn Egypt. From Leghorn, Smyrna, and other p.ates, we have now re ceived confirmation of the war in Egypt having recommenced on the 17th and iSthof March, and ot the dilcontented inhabi tants joining gen.
