Lafl night we received Pans pipers to the 20th, and Dutch papers to the 23d mft. from which we have given fouic intercftmg extracts. The defertion of the French gen. Sarrazin, as might have been expected, produced no fmall degree of ftir at Boulogne. The counterfign was immediately charged along the French coafl and mealures adopted to fruftrateany attempts that might be made by the Englifli goemmen in coi.fcquence of information derived from him. Thefe Journals contain details cf the French operations at Catalonia. It appears that Angereaux hasanived in Paris U. has brought thither the military details, or the atchirverr.tnts within the circuit of his own command in the north eaftern dithiCt of Spain, but which affords nothing new. Some of the troops intended for Spain are fVid to have received another dt dilution. They aie ordered to the toifl of Bntauny, where, according to rumor a large f rrc is to be collecicd. There is a great affectation of myih ry with rrfpeclto the ultimate drltination of this zimy, but enough is fuffrred to trif;,ire 10 indicate a proj-Ct of invalion of fome kincj.

The following fiuular rirrnmllanrc haa occurred at Plymouth. On Monday even ing the Union Koy, ws Wvt t'n m the magazine at that port, with 250 trrt Is of j.;uil powder, and 100 batrrls ot b.Jl cartndcs, to the Definnce of 74 guns, in Caw land bay ; but as flie could not then tke it on board the Hoy proceeded up the harbor, with an intention of ptocerding down tho next morning ; hut about 2 oMork, 14 French prifoin-rs who had made their efcape from one of the hips in the harhur, ot oil bward the powdrr vrflcl, fee u rrd the man who was watching her, nani'd Gill, and ftood out of the harbor unmolrilrd nor was (he mifffd till her crew wrnt to thr fpot where they moored her, to take ir r down into the bay Thr watchman tt thr magazine faw tlie veil I unummed. but he thot it ws by her own crew. Thr Glevner ketch, and Gambier cmtrr, had failed in purfuit of hrr, hut as the wind was dirrcV Iy fair at thr time, and has continued fo evcr fince, it is probable fhe has long ere this readied the French coafl. An article from Hamburg dates, that the fcheme of marrying Ferdinand thr 7th to the daughther of Lucirn Bonapartr, ha9 been abandoned, and that flie c her father had returned to Italv. This morning a mail from Lifbon arrived at the poll office, brot to Flmouh by the Princefs Elizabeth par krt, in 10 days frfjm the Tagus. No battle lud taken place when fi-e failrd, but, for fome timo paft, one was lhoitlv rxprdted. FIRE AT CONSTANTINOPLE.
