Government have received adviees of the fafe ar rival of General D 0.4, with the Expedition under his command, in the Wefer. There is no doubt, we believe, that the expedition, under the command of General Sir D. BAIRD, is gone to the Cape rf Good Hope. It confias of between (even and ficlo men. There is reafon to hope that very little reLlance will be made. •It is fuppoted, that as a much fmaller force than the above viii he required to garrifon the Cape, the remainder may, perhaps, be employed with effeft, in attempting to take the Hind of the Mauritius, which both during the laa war and the prefent, has been a rendezvous for the enemies privateers, which greatly annoy (mr trade, and the head quarters of all the intrigue which is carried on with the native powers of Indi t. We d not knaw, however, whether this aflually forme any part of the plan, though many intelligent pelf ns think it might be tried without danger, and %O.!' contiderable profped of fuccefs. We have already Rated our opinion that the mif- Bon of Count HA t:c tvz from the Court of Berlin to the French Emperor would not be attended with bet• ter effea than that of M. NovosiLTZOFF. We can now Rate that this is alfu the opinion of the Cabinct of Berlin itfelf ; but it was thought advifahle to put the matter to the teR, and by the fame means to juf tify Pruffia more co:npletely in the part that power' has refolve4 to take in the war, in the event of Bo- NAPARTE refilling to reftore peace to Europe. It will, however, we apprehend, be Tome time, in fpite of every effort of Cuunt HAucwyrz, before a dire& anfwer can be obtained from the crafty Tat, LPYRAND, unlefs BONAPARTE, by fome ad of impa tience, or a proceeding amounting to contempt and infult to Isis Majelly (as was the cafe to the Emperor of Rudia during NovosreTzorr's million), break cattle tleaty. In the mean t;rne, we are happy to fiod, both from public and piirate accounts, that the fpirit of the Alsatian Goveinmert and people, was never more firm or enthufl Ric thin it is at this moment. A for- inidable army is air/tabled between the French and Viotti!, to which reinforcements are hourly arriving. —The Auffro-Ruffian army under the command of General Kurusorr, which had been joined by a di vifton of the lecond Ruffian army, commanded by General Mttatttnr, has fallen back to Moelk upon the Danube (about so miles from Vienna), to which place the Ruffian army, under General &heti k LSON, was tiff advancing to form a junCtion. The junc tion of the whole was expelled to be effetted by the tth of this month, at the place before named, which is a very fircog poiltion,and regarded as the rampart of the capital ; and as loon as this fhould be effeited, it WRS intended to bring the enemy to attion. By the latch accounts received by Government we underhand Oat on the 3d inhant the French were only tto miies Vienna, and at the tate at which they were marching, it was thought,fkouldthey meet With no impeciiment, they might be before the place by the 9:h, two days earlier than the time by which it was thought the combined forces would be ready for the attack. It cannot, however, be doubted that Dow Ara Tr. the farther he advances into the Attittian erpofes Lindell to the 'greater danger in cafe •. 1 a oeve:fe, and increafes the chances of dififier. Ney, it is clear, that his army has already be , ,un to experience inconvenience from the 'want of provifions, as the lupply found at Braunau, though not large, wris admitted to have been very lealonable. From the rapidity with, which the ar til'es moved, and were brought into Germany, maga z . iies could not have been fufficiently provided.— That inconvenience was ford - ten, and before the army marched out of Bavaria, depots of every kind were forming at Augfbitrgh. The plan of retreat follotved by the Auftrians and Ruffians, mull add much to the embarraffment of the French. The Confederates fall back, nut only upon fupplils and refourees which their own enuntry would furnihi, but upon an army yet untouched,in addition to the so,cco Ruffians who 'have not been in rittion. If, therefore, BONAPARTE do cs rint fticrced in bringing Genet als KUTU3OFF and .M t ee•rutri to a battle before the arrival of the fe cond. Ruffian army, he will be obliged to encounter a •fitilet.irir army. conhantly encreafing, while a fkilful chvoilio: from the Tyrol of Behernia, not to fay any sting of Praia. would boils cut eft his fupplic: and =bangs his retreat. It is true, however, that At/mutes arm, and the reinforcements by which it may have Ism isiqed,, -will probably be able to prevent any effeanal co;ope; ration between the troops in the Tyrol and Bqhemis, as it will be interfperfed between them, and it is im- poffible that the troops in the Tyrol can be fufficient ly numerous at prefent to form any very confiderable impreffion on an army, for their incurtions hitherto have only been into an open defencelefs country. A great deal will alfo depend upon the diverfion which MASSES.% is able to make. If the reinforce ment under ST. CYR he, as we underhand, not un der 20,000 men, MASSFSA MUft now be greatly fu perior to the ARCHDUKE. MASSIS4, therefore, will now be able to difplay 4 vigour which hitherto his weaknefs has repreffed. Should BONAPARTE not fucceed in obtaining fome decifive advantage before the Imaffes forming againft him are united, confider, able reliance may be placed on the fpirit that now adnates the allies. Indeed we know that no common difafter, fuch as in lets eventful times would decide hoßile power to fire for peace, will have any influence on the Court of Vienna. Even when the fine army un der Mace was given up to the enemy, the Emperor of Germany remained unfltaken in his refolntion to prnfecnte the war. The Archduke Arnim( was the bearer of a letter from his Imperial Majefty to the King of Pruffia, in which after mentioning the dif after, he Bated to the latter, that Ihould the French even fueceed fa far as to take Vienna ;dell, and deprive him of one half of his hereditary domi nions, he w.luld Bill profecute the war, nor ceafe to carry it on rill the inordinate ambition of the French Emperor fbould be humbled. There is every reafen to believe that this letter, which arrived while the Emperor of Russia was with his Pruffian Majefty, had a powerful effed. Indeed, it is generally be lieved at Berlin, that the latter will take an alive part in the war, for nothing is there expelled from the million of Count Hatrawirz : and in the beft in formed circles in London it is afferted that his Pecs- SIAN MAJESTY has pcfitively already joined the al liance. This intelligence is laid to have been brought over by M. DOUBRIL, late Envoy of Ruffia to the French Court, who reached London lat . ( Saturday morning from Berlin, with Mr. VICK the Mellinger. Intelligence was at the fame time received that the populace broke the French Ambaffador's win dows before he left Berlin. When the King of Pruf fia and the Emperor of Ruffia went to the play together, the people furrounded the carriages as they went, and were with loud calls for war with Bova, PARTE I They heard the fame in the Theatre. It is rumoured, on the report of a letter faid to have been received by a foreign Ambaffador, that a general battle has talt s fn place in Italy, and that the army of the Archduke CHARLES was obliged to re treat. This, however, is probably only another edi tion, but exaggerated, of the lilt French accounts from that quarter. A letter from the Hague, dated on Friday lafl, Rates, that two ccui iers had arrived from Paris, and another from the head quarters of the French army on the Inn, neatly at the fame point of time ; but ; that nothing had been fuffered to tranfpire of the I contents of thefe difpatehes. Tomorrow the Kozo will come to town, to re ceive the Addrefs of the City of London upon the viCtory of Trafalgar, upon the Throne at St. James's Palace. The Kir.g has been pleafed to give and grant unto the moll H.onourable RICHARD Marquis Welleiley, Knight of the Wit 111111trious Order of St. Patrick, his licence and pm-million to receive and wear the infignia of the Older of the Crefcent, which the Grand Seignior bath tranfmitted to him ; and alio to command that this his Majelly's conecf ion. together with the relative documents, be regiftered in his Col lege of Arms.

Tocfclav, Nov. cs), 12 &Clock (Noon.) 01 At twelve o'clock, on Sunday night , _T . %EV Small's fleet anchored in Dover Roads. A: day-light on Monday morning, I was informed that the Iquadron had failed, and were (landing towards the French coaft. I immediately put to fea after I them, and at three P M. made the whole fleet, bear ing to windward, to get the French land on bt,ard. About dufk, obferved feverai of them come to an chor, apparently about feven mile; from fl oi tiore. " The wind being from the Southward, and a Itrong atoll tide, before we got hold of the French coaft, we dated about feven miles to leeward. At about eight o'clock we came to anchor about cne mile. and three quarters from the French land, in Whitfun-Bay. Long before we brought up, and for a confiderable time afterwards, a heavy cannonading,, with vollies of mulketry, was kept up from the French fbore, and we were in the greateft expe&a. tion that Sir SIONSY WAS about to commence the attack. At ten the firing ceafed all along the Ft ench coaft. 44 At four A. M. this morning, being favoured by the ebb tide, we weighed anchor, and at daylight found ourfelves about eight miles to windward of the Britith fquadron, who were all at anchor in Bou logne Rnads ; the heavy (hips without the fond, and lighter (hips within it. We bore down towaras them, and loon found ourfelves abreaft of the Imperial Battery, which exter.ds a long way from the mouth of Boulogne harbour, to the eaftward of which were from three to four hundred fail of the French gun boats arranged in line of bottle, under the proteaion of their batteries. gg From the fituation of the wind lag night, the cannonading mull have been plainly heard at Dover, and, no doubt, many accounts will reach Town in various fhapes : I therefore avail tnyfelf of the ufe of an open boat, which I took with me on purpofe to forward any thing thzt I might think worth fending to you. You may afore the Public, that, notwith. (landing the heavy cannonading Taft night, nothing has yet been done. You may Rate with confidence, that at twelve o'clock this day (Tuefday), Sir SID. may's fquadron, and the French flotilla, were all at anchor off Boulogne ; and that no offenfive opera tions on our part had at that time taken place. I have no doubt but it is the intention of the Englith Admiral to attack the flotilla the firft opportunity, but from the fituation of the wind laft night (South), our fquadron muff have tacked up to that of the ene my's, and would thereby have rendered itfelf confi derably more expofed to the fire of the batteries than it need be, lhould it take a leading wind, which will both carry and bring it to and from the French (bore. " Our fquadron appears very numerous—the large (hips have the fire-reffels, rocket boats, &c. towing a-ftern, and are, in my opinka, quite ready for the attack. Whenever the wind than fhift, I have no doubt but it will take place. ‘ 4 DOVER, NOVEMEER 19. a , From feven to eight o'clock tali night a very heavy firing was heard here in the direCtion of Bou logne, but as it has been nearly calm, and excelGve foggy all this day, we have had no arrivals from our fleet.—Difitatches were forwarded this afternoon by one of our large boats to Sir SIDNEY Smartt. One of our boats which came in this afternoon about four, and which was but a few miles to the weftward of our fleet during the firing laft night, informs us, that no attack was made by Sir SIDNEY SMITH, and that the firing was from the enemy's batteries." " DEAL, 'lova:46Ele 19. Yenerday evening and WI night, a heavy firing was dittinelly heard here, inthe direelioa of Boulogne, but no accounts have reached us from that quarter.

" Dirpatches of the 3 tft ult. from Vice Admiral COLLINGWOOD, dated at fea, were received by our Ambaffador, Lord RODIRT Firzettato the ad in ltant, in which he congratulates his Lortithip on the above important viftory, but fags that the victory is great, yet England has to lament the tors of her fa vourite hero, who has not left his equal on earth or fea. The Vice Admiral then goes on with a detail of the :Ilion, but rays that on account of the dreadful hurricane for revere' days after the aCtion, he had been obliged to dellroy all the prizes ; which event took place on the 28th of Oftober. He alto adds, that he had on board his fleet fifteen thoufand French and Spann prifoners, &c. &c. The Entrepre nante cutter. of 12 guns. Lieutenant Ptov ta, landed the difpatehes from Vice Admiral Lord Cowrie ; WOOD at Faro, and they were forwarded by land to I Lifbne. She, as well at the Pickle, fated tso of crew before the blew up. " Our illuminations were brilliant for two ni•Allts : By accounts from Cadiz we learn, that Admira , Gaisvima's dip alone loft five hundred men killer and wounded, and the other Span& fhips in propor tion. The account of this glorious viftory reached us very opportunely, as the French here had receiv ed difpatches of their viflories in Germany, And were going to illuminate—but the battle and viflory off 'Frafalgar coming at the fame time, they drooped their heads, after being puffed up, and gave up every idea of any illumination. " The Cnrieux, IR, Captain Joitasow, arrived here I this morning from England, and brought us the me lancholy details of affairs on the Continent.
