Saturday morning Mr. Roes's., the Meffmger, ar rived at Lord MI:LGSM'S Oflice, w:th difpatches from Lord G. L. GOWER, at Sr. Peteriburgh. A report prevailed in she courfe of the day, that he was the bearer of difpatches of a fatisfadory nature. Difpatches were received at the Admiralty from Lord Geamssa on Saturday. A reinforcement of three flips of the line has, we underhand, been fent from the Channel Fleet to Lord Nilsson. „The Cairati and AUDACIOUS, of 74 guns, have Undergone a complete rep a i r at Plymouth, and are ordered into commitlion. Captains STEPHINS and Lawson., are appointed to the refpeflive commands The Tatiner is, of 74guns, and the Lena frigate, with a fleet of tranfports, having on board the Bth, z4th, and itscl regiments, arrived at the Cove of , Cork on Tuefdatiall. from Portfmouth. The re giments in that neighbonihnod, under orders for fo• reign fervic,/, in the expedition to be commanded by Sir ETRI COOT!, were expected to bt embarked in the courfe of laft week. Intelligence was received in the conrfe of Friday by Admiral DOUGLAS, that five praanis, 14 fchuyts, and upwards of so brigs and loggers, were to fail in the courfe of a day or • two from Dunkirk for Bou • logne. A light fqtradr on was difpatcbed on the look out for thein. The rumour that the combined fquadron, or a part, are gone to the Brazils, is Itrengthened by tome accounts brought by the ACTIVI frigate, which fpoke a Portugueze man of war, and was informed by her that the had teen the combined fleets, And that they were gone to the Brazils. It appears that it was on the 24. th of March the Rochefort fquadrort failed from Fort Royal, Marti nique, on their return to Europe. Previous to their departure an embargo had been laid for three days on the fhipping in the ihland. The Cori Mercantik Chronicle of Monday lift faYs•—• l l 6 ' An American veld arrived this day from Bolton, (poke, a few days force, with a Danifh fhip, which reported, that fiven days previous to their meeting (about the loth), fhe had fallen in with a fleet of (hips, colififting of t t fail of the line, off the Weftern Ifles. This news, which is related by a pallinger of great refpeaability, has caufed a variety of conjec tures ' • but the prevailing opinion is, that they were Lord Ns Ls ott's fleet, perhaps boundin purfnit of the enemy for the Weft Indies. The circnmftance of their being obferved lying to would, however, create a belief, that if they were his fleet, he had not been able to procure information of the enemy having pro teeded further to the weftward." We have been favoured with the pernfal of letters from Prince RUpett's, Dominica, containing a very particular detail of the, late operations of the French in that quarter. Moll of the circumftances are al ready known. It appears, however, that the regu lar troops are entitled to undivided praife for the brave defence that was made. Thofe aftually en gaged were the flank companies of the 46th regiment, the light company of the Ili Well India regiment, and the artillery in the forts, which, in all, did not amount to 150 men. The militia amounting to about 250, met the enemy to the Northward, gave them one volley, and then marched off. The lois of the French, by their own acknowledgment, was thirty officers killed, and 300 men betides wounded. They could hardly believe that the brave men, by whom they were oppofed, confined of fuch a (mall number. Major NUN'', of the la Weft India regiment, is dead of his wounds: the two Captains are doing duty.— The French have thrown in tOOO men into the Saints. We have received American papers to the nth of April. The city of St. Domingo was inveßed on the loth of March, by the army of the Emperor DISSALINIS —and to clofely were the French hemmed in, that vele'', either failing from or entering the port, were ezpofed to the mufquetry of the troops which lined the (bore. General FERNAND was, according to the lateft intelligence, determined to perith rather than fuffer the Blacks to take poffeifion of the place. In a fpirited addrefs he exhorts his troops to defend the town to the laft extremity. Having Allred them, that furrounded on one fide by the brigands, and on the other fide by the fea, without a tingle weird to favour their efcape, he tells them they can have no hope of fafety, but in viaory alone ; and calls upon them to perilh or conquer. An intereitino correfpondence has lately taken place between Mr. 1451tRY, the Britith Milliner, and Mr. MADDISON, the American Secretary of State, on the fubjea of impreffing American feamen. Mr. Malmo contended, that Britith [hips pollefs the right of feiz ing native born fubjeBs of Great Britain, notwith (landing their naturalization as American Citizens; while Mr. MADDISON has ftrentoufly contetted his arguments. We have mnch pleafure in contradiaing the reports of che.h.fs of his Majefty's thipsVatic yeti) and Pass cESS CHARLOTTS. Captain EV•NS has publifh e d i n the American Papers (in which the report of the lots of the Vanguard originated) a refutation cf that nate ment ; and there are letters from the Princ e f s Char lotte, dated the 29th March, 14 days fubfequent to the time the was Paid to have been wrecked, announc ing her fafety.

Hassoso again entered the lifts, and contended the palm of fwift footednefs in Lord's Cricket-ground. The fpaci to be run over was only one hundred yards, a diftance much too fhort for a fair expofi of the real powers of agility and wind which loch a trial lhotild put to the teft. Lord FREDERICK fnatch ed the priority on the very Ratting, which Mr. H. accuftomed to a longer pull, was unable to make up in fo fort a fpace. Such, however, was the well weighed equality of powers exerted by the youthful antagonifts, that Mr. HAISBORD, at the end of the gaol, was only behind his competitor the two yards which he had loft at the flatting. There were no wagers on the iffue of this contention, it being merely meant as a private trial of comparative velocity be tween Lord F. and Mr. H. The latter, however, Teemed willing to run any rifk at a further diflance but Lord F. declined drawing the long bow. The fame eiitance of one hundred yards was afterwards ran between Mr. H. and Mr. LAMBERT ; but the former in this comet} gained a victory without a flruggle. Notwithaanding the privacy with which this experiment was attempted to be made, the lime of the antagonifts did not allow it to remain a re. cret. There were prefent their Graces the Ducheffes of DIEVONSHIRII and ST. AL BAN'S, Ladies CASTLE. erAoH. CHARLEMANT, and HEATNCOTI, Mifs LAMB, Mifs DRUMMOND ' &c. The fatigues of the antagonifts, and the early air ing of the fpedators, were afterwards recreated 'n the ground by the elegant hapitalities of the Du chefs of Sr. ALB•N'S, who confecrated the cont• ft and the fpot by an extemporaneous dejeuni, which db. - - played every delicacy the feafon could fupply.

The infantry arming themfelves with flicks from the hedges, and large [tones, attacked the cavalry with the greateff ferocity, and when obliged to fall back by the plunging of the horfes, took (better behind the carriages, till a more advan tageous opportunity offered for renewing the conteft. The horfemen having nothing to defend themfeves with but fuch fmall dicks as are generally ufed on horfeback, were worked in the engagement. Mr. Idle, of the Strand, an eminent wine merchant, in endeavouting to obtain a hearing, for the purpofe of procuring a ceffation of holtilities, received a dread ful cut from the enemy, over his eye, and was oblig ed to be carried off the ground ; another unfortunate Gentleman etually had his thigh broken in the affray. • Saruitoar.—The meeting doled this day with the belt day's (port which was experienced during the week.
