Lts SMILES, JULY 13. —The look-out fhip has trade the fi gnal or a divifion of the enemy's fleet, confiding of five (hips of the line, fume frigates and corvettes. The number of (hips that this di viflakttontains does not feem to us to be more than ' Valli eight to ten. On the 26th of June one of the diriliou has been at the Ifle of Dieu taking in sAkt ; on the s7tb, a frigate has been there for As me objeft. the cob of July, a flag of truce was fent from the Englifh divifion for our port; but a can non flint from the fort of Tanchet made her bring to at force diflance from the fort. She was bearer of a letter addreffed to the commanding, officer of the Marine at Sables, by which the Englifli . com mander required the*xchange of fa French fea men, taken on board a chafre.maree near Me Dieu. Our commanding officer anfwered, that there were no Englifh prifoners here; that if there were he was not authorifed to exchange them; that it was to the Government that he lhould addrefs hiarfelf ; and that he requefted the Englifh Ad miral to fend no more flags of truce. It is conceived here, that the object of the offi cer who was bearer of the letter was to examine the fortifications of the place, and the movements in the port; and that the filjed of the flag of truce was but a trick employed for the purpofe of covering the expedition. One of the Englifir who came on Chore was very near lofing his life in re- embarking. . Baur, Jute x6.—The fpirit of order, of which the Government has given fuch excellent examples, spreads over every branch of the adminiftration.

Wearied with a long and difaftrotis war, we with to turn our eyes towards the profperity which peace mull bring, and on the advantages which agriculture, commerce, and the arts mull derive from it.

Hamm Josor ts.—Several tich proprietors from Batavia have arrived within thefe few days in this city. They unanimoufly affure us, that the late attempt of the Englifh againft that colony, and the Dutch !hips in the ports of the Ifland of Java, has not !!taken the courage of the troops, or' excited the leaf fear in the inhabitants, of whom a great part has taken up arms for the defence of the country. All the fuccefs which the Englifh have had, confifis in the capture of three or four India vac's which belonged to the Company.— Thefe perfons affure us, that the commerce with China is Rill purfued with great aCtivity, and that the reports fpread lay the public papers refpeeting the Rate of that colony are falfe.

This Itep has been taken in confcquence of the de claration of M. de Donis, that the evacuation could not take place, and the fear that is entertain. ed that the Kis° of Paussi A means to unite that country to the Duchy of Magdebourg, and in. demnify bimfelf for the lofts he has fudained by the treaty of Lunt-vale.

ITALY. MILAN, JULY S. Numerous corps of French troops are now , marching to Lower Italy, by way of Bologna, and it becomes more probable every day, that the French intend an expedition againft the Turks, from the Adriatic.

There can be little or no ground for the appre henfions entertained by many of an immediate in vafion ; the alacrity however of Government, to be prepared to repel any attempt, calls for praife.
