It con cludes with the following paragraph : " The Ligurian ports continue to remain free from the blockade oedered by the Bridal government. — ,But the fear of its being loon carried into execution, and the fuccelGve appearance of Tome Englifh frigates off our coafl, has damped the aeivity of our naviga tion, and thrown our commerce into a (fate of lan guor. The frigates which occationally make their appearance in fight of our coatis, belong to the fqua dron with which Lord Na Lass is hill watching and blockading the Toulon fleet. Another Englilli (qua droll is at anchor off Sicily, and keeps a Dap of the line contionually flationed 'at the entrance of the port of Naples, Which is relieved every fortnight.
