BLOCKADING SVADIIO?IS. It has for Tome time been known, that an expedi tion was prepanng for the phrpore of attempting Come enterprise againft the enemy. The deflrue tion of the flotilla at Boulogne vas the 4hjeZt ; and a dark night, a leading wind for the French cold, and a favourable tide, were Cuppored to be the moft fortunate combination that could occur for making the experiment. All of thefe took place on Tueeday night, and accordingly, a little before midnight, a molt tremendous cannonade was heard in the direaien of Boulogne, which was con. filmed widlostt intermiMon for fume Mars. The firing of mot and (hells, both from our fleet and the hoflile flotilla, as well as the land batteries, is repre fented,in the letteis from Deal and Dover, to have 'far exceeded any that has yet taken place od the op• polite coati. Three diflind explofions wetc heard, (Come account: fay only one) during the cannonade, which were euppoied to proceed lions the blowing up of the fame numbtr of fire-Mips Cent its among .the 'French flotilla, an operation for which the direflion Of 112 e wind was particularly favourab*, Whin our paper was put to •prees yefterday; no accounts of the event had been received. excepting 41y what we dated—that a very heavyfiring had beat on Tucfday, between eleven and twelve at the direBmtt of Bonlogne, which continued tillpaft midnight; and that it was believed an attack bad been made crithe enemy's flotilla itt that patter. In the afternoon, however, Come of our coternpo :Arles, who are in the hibit of publifhing exaggerated details of the particulars of every rumour, announc ed to the public that 48 of the enemy's gun boats had been deßroyed, and a great deal oe other mif thief done to th;m, without any loft on our fide. It would only be infulting the good fence of our Reade;:s to repuhlifla the aecohnts that were left night impofed on the public as genuine coffeepot). 'fence from Deal, Dover, &c. &C. Suffice it to fay that having done ore dAty in mentioning the ru mours that *ere circulated we are concerned to date that the attack from which fo Much was ex peded hat failed, and that few, if any of the ene by!' ecireie, have been (unit or deftroyed. The attack was made under the immediate °lifer- Nation of the Fiat Lord of the Admiralty, Lord 111/LVILLS having embarked or. board l'Asstaate frigate, commanded by Capt.

Both Lord NEITI4 and Admiral Lout's were prefent ; and the whole of our force which had been collated for the defence of the firait, was concentrated off Boulogne on that evening.

Thole machines a r e reprefeuted as capable of being floated under water, and towed along by a (mall beat.

Such are the means by which a eonfiderable de- Clement was intended to have been inflitted en the VINOR Navy of the Ce:forrz Ulurper, and which, if it bad been filcafsful, even to one.thlrd of tlz extlnt that is mentioned, would probably not have made it advifeable for it to.ftinter (made the pier of Bou: logne.
