No other bulletin was Urged ready after thit out we laid before our r e aders, and indeed it is a fixed arrangement, that but one will be ilfued is the artufe of every twenty four hours.

Deb. .--1.. m....--TS. morning. The Cabinet Council which fat at Mr. Amnia. soe's yefterday. was attended by his Royal Highnefs the Duke of GLOUCISTBI. The Council broke up foon after four o'clock. We underdand, that at the recommendation of the Cabinet Connell, Sir Lucas Purrs and Dr Res' BOLDS vilere called in to attend, His MaysirrY, and thofe Gentlemen accordingly attended His Maim* yefterday. and met Sir FILAICIS lIIILLISAU and Dr. Hessaose, and had a confaltation at the Q . seen's Honk, and the whole of thofe Gentlemen continued their vifits to His MAJZSTT during the day. Laft night. alma eight o'clock. the Duke of You bad an interview with Mr. Anfurovou, at his Nish in Downing-Rrect. , It was yefterday very generally expelled that MI. nifteri would loft night make tome commsnicatios to both Hodes of Parliament, retpeeinig the Rate of his Majasrv's health, but it is not vidattood, that Minifters, wilting to afcertain the preeife nature of his MAJILITT*I diftemper, and whether it is likely to be of a lingering natore or otherwife, have polpoaid this communication to Monday or Tsefday next. Mr. Fox, Mr. PITT, and feveral other dißingnifited members were prefent. If on Monday it appears that his Majesty's health is Poch as to jußify an opinion of his fpeedyiecovery, it is underßood to be the intention of Minifters to propofe, that both Routes fhould ad)oorn for ionic fbort time. The reports retpelting the nature of the malady under which his MAJIIITT labours are various; but we have already touched upon the tubjeit, and what we have Paid is fufficient. His MAJasTY in the courfe of yefterday morning enjoyed much refrefhing fleep; and was better; and, we underftand,afterwards partook drams refrefhment. His MAPISTY'S pulfe, which we underßand was on Thurfday night at t to, had yefterday morning fabOded, in confequence of the tepote which he had enjoyed (the firß for leveret nights), to 80. It was in confequence of this happy change, it is fuppofed, that no communication was yefterday made to either Houle of Parliament, as had been generally and confidently expected. The Bulletin was not delivered out quite fo early this day as yefterday, and the crowd of Nobility and Gentry, waiting with anxiety at St. James's, to learn the Rate of his Mai MY'S health, was, if poffible, greater than on any preceding day fince his indifpo fition. It murk rejoice every loyal heart to be informed, that our beloved Sov E tics is now confidered to be in no danger. We may, therefore, indulge a fond hope that in a few days His Majavry will be reftored to his wonted health. No language can defcribe the general joy which was manifefted by the numerous enquirers this morning, when [hewn the following BULLETIN. ...ebb February. 111,4.

This day, at twelve o'clock, the Loan CHAN c et.i.oa and Mr. ADDINGTON, went as ufual to the Queen's Houfe, whence, after a lhort conference with her MaILITT, they returned to Downing-flreet, where the glad tidings of the Kiwo's being ~ut of danger, were announced to the Duke of Po AAAAA D, the Earl of C , Lord HOIIAIT, and other Cabinet Mioifters, who were left fitting in Council when this Paper went to profs. Such was the anxi:ty of Miniflers lafk night to afcertain hourly t.”.: precife Sate of His MA. JESTY'S health, that in feveral inflances their horfes were kept harneffcd long after midnight. At two o'clock in the morning Mr. Ammuctos went to the glieen's Houfe, whet: he :attained a coofiderable ti tut. PARTS JOURNALS. At a late hour laft night we received a varier/ 1 43f canvas from the Paris parnals to the 31ft oh. this molt mate rial of which are given in the preced. ing columns. They contain no intelligence of im portance. They mention the march of the cavalry from Compiegne for Boulogne: and the conviltiott of a few perfons secured of hating contrived tome curious infiruments for the deftruCtion of the Fiasr Comsat. This plot is, as ufiud, attributed by the Meekest to Englith agency.. The lateß accounts from our fquadron off Bou logne Rate, that the LICIPAILD, Lan*, lIIIJUOILTALITS. tkalltlltl.. Locus?, Amin, Docitass of CUSIZaIt. Jaen, and GIIVFIN cutters, remained at parlor Ode off Boulogne harbour the whole oflunday, Monday, Toddy,. and alum& all Wednefday. They laobfere ed that the addition of force at Boulogne of te has been very confiderable. There Ire upwards of no fall of brigs, fthoonera, &c. exclufive of gun boats, in all not lets than Soo fail. T he principal part have moored op the harbour into the different new baton; which have been made. On Sunday the IIIIIIIOII.TALITR, DUCHISS of Con email o, and Gamin cutter. attacked Come guts boats between Cape Ganz and Boulogne, on their way to the latter. A fevere fire was kept up from the batteries on Chore upon our veffels, but without doing them any injury. The Innorearra mot away the malt of one of the gun boats. For upwards of ant hour on Wednefday morning our fquadron was becalmed. The enemy perceived it. and a fire was lighted on the heights, which wars fuppoted to be a fignal for attack. Great bugle was immediately perceived, and the pier head was crowd ed with foldiers and others dragged out gun boats to attempt the attack on our fquadron, for whidi they confidered the civet:enflames as favourable. A breeze fpringing up, however, they again returned into harbour. At break of day on Wedudday left a proffigiousi volume of (stoke was obferved from feversl parts of the coati for four hours, in the direction of Boulogne. and at intervals the.horizon above that place rained to be entirely illuminated. This phenomenon has given rife to various makeover'. and it is Nyasa that it was oecafloned by a conflagration of the ene my's flotilla, which by tome means or other had caught fire. It is reported alto, that tome of the French troops have laid down their arm., and that the unnoß difitiftaion prevails along the whole man. The poor deluded wretches who compote the French army dellined for the expedition egainfi this country are, it is (aid, funk in defpondeney. and have loft all hopes of being able to effect a landing, as they are Co clofely watched by our blockading fquadron, the Commanders of which are certainly entitled to the highs& praife for their perfeverance, havingrernained at amber cloth to Boulogne during fo tempeftuous weather. Yeiterday morning there was Tome firing off Ca. and a Prize was brought into Dover in the after noon: For other particulars we refer our Readers to our Port Letters, and an intcrelling Letter from on board one of tie alive little Veffels employed in watching the motions of the enemy. It is calculated that the enemy's naval equipments at Boulogne will contsin upwards of 60,000 men, and it is the opinion of molt of the officers in the fquadron in the Downs, that the enemy will immedi ately attempt launching, if they ever intended any thing.
