On his departure from Bra it experienced a Rom, by which thfee tranfurts and one fr"gate were feparated. The frigate, inilead of tuucbing at Falfe Bay, proceeded to Fitlle Point in the. Wand of Madagafcar, and came to anchor at Pondicherry on the hundred and firn day after her departure from Brea. Fifteen dos after Admiral Lirots and Captain General Them arrived before Pondicherry, 03 which occalion the inhabitants teflified great jny.— the Engligt have Jeltroyed lowa' edifices, and op. girdled the inhabitants in a drcaJ ul manner. A few days miter the fluadron ,as joined by the brig Iritrii?r, .2..16 had been difpatched from Brett to carry Out lyi..z urd inter. perate (Farnfilyer rt n•fra7t Law ut Ent, s.an as .Ibn Admiral tnusettatety be op anchor and failed for ' the Ilk of France, where be arrived on the aoth of Thermidor (Augii 8). He was joined there by the Geographe, under the command of Captain Banton. A hundred and fifty Frenchmen had remained on fhore to take poffeflion of Pondicherry. Thefe the Admiral left. The Engliik delivered up to thaw the town and the forts. They railed a battalion of Se poys, and, fupported by the inhabitants, they had 1411 maintained themfelves in the place when the Id ac counts came away. The Enghlh did not receive an account of the war till very late, Race they were ignorant of it in Fruai. dor (Anglia and September). The (quadron was in the heR Rate, and the (mall corps of Captain General Mewl in good health. The news of the arrival of a French fquadron in India had infpired with great joy and hopes the in- habitants of this imamate Peninfula, who groan un der a yoke of iron. By the IA intelligence they had heard in India, that war had again broken out between France and England; they thought that England, hard prefer!, could fend no new fuccoors. The inhabitants re joiced—and the Mahrattas. and Princes of the iOsnd of Ceylon, each attacked the Engldh poffeffions. What infatiable avarice is that of the Eighth ! they are too weak for the extent of territory which they have to defend. The ha's are exclufively co vered by their (hips; in America and in India, in the Baltic and in the Mediterranean, they carry on the principal trade; and they violate treaties , kindle up war, endanger their repore. their tranquillity, their credit, and their very exiftence, to add to the patelfron of Gibraltar that of Malta ! The five or fir thoufand men whom they arc obliged to leave in garrifon in that gland, would eertabaly be more ufefully employed in reinforcing the army in India ; but there is a period when prof. perity renders people blind t they no longer know their intereas s in their Rate of intoxication they form chimeras. and fometimes perilh amidß convul.

We ha►e recei►ed ►ery particular details from the If eof France. Th: difpotches of the Captain• G eneral Ditcaaw and Rear-Admiral Limon contain the molt fatisfadory accounts. _ _ The whole fquadron was anchored before Pondi cherry, except the tranfport la Cote d'Or. which had fallen behind. Twenty-four hours after the ar rival of the fquadron, it was joined' by the brig dif patched from Breß, to carry out intelligence of the Itac of Enosaso's metage. Five Englillt flips of the line and three frigates had come to anchor clofe to the French fquadron. At midnightillear miral Ltnoss leaving at Pondicherry fifty men and women, who had already landed, cut his cables and putting to fez. proceeded to the Ifle of France, where his fquadron arrived on the ayth day, all well. The tranfport la Cote d'Or Coon arrived in the In. dian Seas; an Englifh frigate fired feveral (hot at her, which did no damige, and carried her to the enemy's fquadron before Pondicherry. The Cover. nor General of India, who as yet had received no intelligence from Europe. gave orders for her being releafed, and the French General, the Commandant of Pondicherry, caufed her to fet out for the We of France, where the joined Admiral Linos,. On the ad of Vendemiaire (Sept. 24) the corvette a &rum anchored at the Ifle of France, and brought intelligence of the declaration of the war, which was fill unknown to the Englifli. The fix French frigates, corvettes, and other light veffels belonging to the fquadron, and eight privateers fitted out in the country, put to fea on a ctuize.— We hope they will avenge our trade for the num.:- rout piracies committed by the Englifi.. Anarchy had ceafed in the colony. Geri. Detain had difplayed the charatler of Captain.Gcncral ; the Ordornateur LIkGII that of Colonial Prefect ; and Gen Macau.; that of Commandant of the Ifland of Reunion. The Militia were in the fame Rate as the preceding y:ar, and the Colony had 3000 men, of good troo:is, newly arrived from France. The battle kit by the Englilis againtl tile hfalirat tas had been officially confirmed, as well as the elif . aller. which the Bikini troops had experienced in the i(land of Ceylon. MARCN 9.

Certain it is, that an expedition againft that iOand for the recovery of their fettlements there, could not be undertaken at a more favourable time. We hope, however, that they will not fucceed in thek proje6l, as it will be no eafy matter for them to fend out reinforcements. _ _ We fubjoin fuels other articles as kern to deferve any notice.
