A letter from Portsmouth, dated June 18, says, Admiral Pasley is just landed at Gosport, and carried up amidst the acclamations and huzza’s of an immense number of people to Mr. Goddard’s, in Cold Harbour. We are happy in announcing that the Admiral looks much better than might be expected, and this noble hero waved his hand to the crowd as they cheered him.
Early on Saturday morning the prisoners from the French prizes (all of which are arrived at Spithead) began their debarkation and most of them are now in Hilsea Barracks. Many of them on landing shouted aloud, and sung Republican hymns; and one of the escorting parties of 500, which was the number of each escort, mutined on the road, and it was not till one was shot by a private of the Gloucester militia, that they were prevailed upon to be quiet.
The number of prisoners carried to Hilsea barracks amounts to about 3500, who, with the sick and the gentlemen on parole, make near 4000.
