If the weather prove favourable, we may tape& to hear Coon of Tome dating attack being made on the enemies craft at Boulogne. The DISCOVERY bomb, carrying mortars of the largeft calibre in the fervice, failed laft night from the Downs with a fqnadron of mortar boats to join the Expedition under Admiral Sir SYDNSY SMITH. By the mail of yefterday, various letters were re ceived from Berlin, confirming the intelligence be fore Elated in this paper, that propofals fora pacifica tion had been made by that Court. Count HAUG wrrz, one of the moil artful and dextrous diploma tilts in Europe, has been fent from Berlin to the head quarters of Boa...rears, for the purpofe of opening negociations fur the reftoration of a general peace.a— He fet out from Berlin -on the ;; th infi. Tha condi tions, we have every reafon to ' , dim, will not be found to vary much from thofe we mentioned Come day; ago. Thebafisof negotiation will thus be thefkme with that formerly propofed by N. D'Ou sun at Pa ris, or Tome flight modification of it. 'We know not upon what change in the difpofition of RQUAAARTat his FrUffian Majefty founds his hopes of fuceefs as a mediator, but it appears to us •molt unlikely that' BON•PARTa amid accede to terms to which he SC, fufed, Come months ago, to hearken, as being to tally inadmiffible. • Some of the point', tb be fore, will not admit of much coutroverfy. The king dom of Naples is evacuated for the moment; Hol land will probably be loon in the fame (late ; and Switzerland is allowed to preferve her nentrality.— But who can exped that BONATAITS will-either exe cute the treaty of Luneville to its full extent i or fe ;lterate the French and Italian Crowns? • • BoN APALTE will hill follow the fate liataf eon duct—make profcffions of a readinefs to negociate— throw every impediment in the way of fpecification, Rill go on augmenting his army,--O ill occupy any pa fition which may promife fntnre advantage—and an nex to his dominions whatever of territory he may be able to obtain either by craft or force. Haucwirz will obtain no more refpet than Novostyrzorr.— The Emperor of RUSSIA mull be well convinced of this, and can only have agreed to the propofition of. the Court of Berlin, which he is underftood to have done, out of compliment to his Pruffian Majefty, and that the latter may be furnifhed with the fame prac tical evidence which he himfelf has obtained of the infolence, arrogance and perfidy, of the difturber of Europe. The Ray of the Emperor at Berlin is fald to have g:ven rife to the mofk paled friendfhip bktween his Imperial Makily and Abe Pruffian Monarch—a friendfhip founded upon fimilarity of difyrofition, and enflamed and fealed in a moment of enthufiafm at the monument of FREDERICK THE GREET. On the evening of ALa ems Dal% departure, and after : fepper, the young Emperor propofed to viftt the tomb of that extraordinary perfonage. Thz liroyal Party repaired to the church where Faanitatca's remains are dcpofited. The church was faltannly lighted up for this fingular. and romantic fpeaacle. The attend ants were moved at the fight, ALEXANDER was over. powered by his feelings, and in a tranfport of enthu fiafm killed the coffin which contained the body of FREDbEICE. The two Sovereigns embraced, and fwore eternal friendfhip and fidelity. In this temper they took leave of each other. This is a plain Raternent of fats as recorded with the fimplicity of truth in the Berlin Court Gazette. We uuR no fel flub calculations of intereß will extinguifh thofe deli cam fentiments of an boneß enthallafm, and no fage maxims of grey-bearded politiciatA freeze the genial ardour of thole young Monarchs, or ever interrupt the current of their mutual friendfhip. If left to follow the impulfe of their own•generous feelings, the I refult of the new attempt at negotiation will lead to an unity of views and action which will be highly • beneficial to Europe. The following private letter we ball received from 5•... Berlin, of the gth, gives an intereaing agentoW the meeting between the two Sovereigns, Sid the imilllon of HAUGWITZ Butte, SEPT. 9.—At lag the Emperor of Ruffia basleft us. His taking leave of the King and (been, at the coffin of FREDERICK 11. wis one of the moll intereaing fcenes which can be conceived. Nothing could be imagined better calculated to cement eter sally betireen the two Monarchs a friendthip, found ed upon the (=fluky of their jua and honouratie offpofitions. The Emperor of Ruffia, during his Ray, (hewed the utmoll attention to all military and political al fairs. Even in ilk molt minute points of military fervice he {hewed himfelf converfant ; but the King of Pruflia appeared to be fuperior to the Emperor in military exercifes. The refult of the conferences and good underflan ding between the two Monarchs kerns to be, Thar the Ruffians will take no ,part in the occupation of Hanover ; that the army defined for that fervice will be fent into Germany ; and that the projeßed expedition of the Swedes, Englifb, and Ruffians into Holland,will not take effect. On the refult of the negotiation which Count Hetrowtrz is gone to open with the Emperor NA ?WWI, will depend whether the arrangement be littles the lloveretpw.of,Oralti4944l,l4oi9 which different other Princes will in the end .toucur, than take cad. If we May truk to the reports of the pacific dif- Poritiolls GI the Emperor NeroLson; it will not be difficult, for fo able a negotiator as Count Hauc- WITS to toting about a general peace for Europe ; but at the fame time it mutt be admitted that, on both fides, principles have been avowed, which it will not be ealy, praaically, to reconcile. The language ufed by the Emperor of the French to General MACK, the public declarations of that Monarch at Munich, and the intelligence brought by a French courier, who arrived here two days ago, from the head quarters of the French army, all cost. cur in hating that Naroyeos was compelled to go to war ; that he carried it on folely for his ally the Eleaor of Bavaria ; that, as be had before exprelled bimfelf, he had fucceeded to the ALMA of his wiihes ; that he defined nothing but peace ; that he fought no territorial acquifitions in 'Germany for himfelf ; that he wanted nothing but Rips, colonies, and commerce ; that he would not even oppofe the occupation of Hanover,- when it could:be done in proper •form ; and that he would accept, with plea fare, any terens'of peiCe which would - not eompro 'mire hiA honour .and his viaories—that, moreovjrr, he was abfolutely determined to make .pearre, ez eluding Englandfrom partiCipation in it—and that, in sort, he only demanded advantageous terms for his three allies, the Eliaors .of Bavaria, Wirtemberr, and Baden. Thole conditions, as was reported at Munich, were, that the Eleftor of Bavaria' fhoyd have Eichhadt, Augiburgh, the Innveiliel, and the Tyrol; but that the Aultrian poifeffions in Suabia hoold be divided - between the other two; That Venice, however, which is not in Germany, log would molt probably keep for himfelf. On the other hand, Count Haut:wire will princi pally, it, i 4 thought, inn upon a geneses' peace, the re-ellabliihment of Liguria upon its former footing,' and an indemnity for the King of Sardinia. If fomething be not muttiallr conceded tbefe condi tions can hardly be reconciled. During his hey here the Emperor of Ruffia ex erted himfelf to restore the good underftanding be tween the Kings of Pruffia and Sweden. At this moment arrived' Count Lowavnatin, aid-de-camp of the King of Sweden, with a letter from Gorra vos ADOLPHUS, in which the latter fisted that as a co-ehate of the Empire, he could not content to the entrance of the Pruitran troops into Hanover, and that be was convinced the Emperor of Raffia was of his opinion. This letter, trafornntatdy, impeded the good intentions of the Emperor. A report has unaccountably got abroad that the Euity*Lus frigate has been taken. This suiaake mutt ante from inattention to the circuustlance, that Admiral Cou.tucwoon's difpatches of the 28th of Oftober are dated on board that velrel, and no inti mation whatever is given of his intention that the thould feparate from the firer. We are happy to allure our Readers that Tome ' apprehenfions entertained refpe&ing the fafety of the Vicroay man of war, which lately bore the flag of the• immortal Nst.s on, are totally groundlefs, as that (Lip and another belonging to the fleet engaged in the battle of the sift of Oftober, are fafely arrived at Gibraltar. The SATURN, Lord A. BEAUCLIRC, with five fail of the line, failed on Sunday morning from Port(- mouth for Cadiz, to relieve the (battered (hips. We infert this day the remonflrance of the Court of Stutgard, againtt the conduct of the Commander' alone of the divifions of the French army. The ELECTOR of WIRTEMBULG, the ally Of BON•PLRTI, is treated with as much contumely, as if he were a reduced and fuppliant enemy.

It is generally fuppofed here that a blow will be (truck f,mewhere on the oppofite (pore. The wea ther has been fo very hazy all this day, that we have not been able to fee the French land. The fquadron has been teen by fome of our boat. men about half leas over; and as it is now almolt calm, they fuppofe they will not be able to reach the French coaa to-night. Came into port this morning the bark Morgenflein„ Captain Julio/meow, of Lubeck, with a cargo of fait, from St. Übe's, bound to Memel, being very leaky, and having loa an anchor, cable, and boat. Sailed the Flirt cutter, for the Channel fleet. One of Sir &Dint% doable boats, the Gemini, on fortunately yeflerday afternoon received fo much da mage alongfide one of the gun brigs, as to render her unfit to go with the fleet, and inconfequence he was fent into the harbour lati night. .

Her MAJEST? and the other Princeffes took an airing in a carriage and four by Cranbourn. Yenerday morning, at eight o'clock, the Duke of You arrived at Wincifor from town. The Duke of CAUSILIDGB left Windfur yellerday, at half pail twelve o'clock, and arrived at his apart ments in St. James's Palace about three. His Majelly has appointed two o'clock, on Thus ; day next, to receive the Addrefs of the Corporatioe of •London.. • The Duke of You has given orders, that on the enfuing fail day, every officer and private in the dif ferent Volunteer Corps Wall wear a fcarf roundhis left arm, as a fmall tribute of refpea to the memory of the gallant Lord NELsof. _ Tranfportw, with between S and 9000 troops, are expeaed daily in the Downs from Scotland. They arc to be joined by others from Ireland, and will then proceed to the. Continent. A letter from Leghorn, of the 15th Oftober, fays, that the g reatcr , part of the Ru f f i an troops that were at Corfu had gone to Dalmatia, for the purpofe of reinforcing the Auftrian army in Italy, weakened by the detachments Pent to the Tyrol and Germany. Tuefday night failed from Dublin for England, the Hon. judge Vox, being (ummoned as a witnefs on the part of the Crown, on the trial of the Hon. Judge Jomasoss. A packet was received overland on Saturday laft at the Ealt Iniia Houfeovhich we underftand brings only duplicates of former advices by that conveyance, and thofe brought by the Teignmouth cruiser, which arrived about a week ago. The King of Sweden, defirnus of regaining the friendfhip of the King of Pruffia, and in order that what pallid on the occafion of the order of the Black Eagle being returned by him, may be buried in ob livion, has lent the Count de Lowerria eta to Berlin, with a letter to FREDERIC WILLIAM, and another to ALEXANDER I. It was Paid that his Swedith Majefty would go to Berlin ; but this is untrue. Three hundred and fifty Chinefe are Rated to have embarked from M4cao for Bencoolen, for the purist:X.: of fuperintending the cultivation of the fpice plants at that fettlement. The Captains or the, nine China dire& flips, which went ant in June, 1794, and returned in September 1795, under convoy of his Maje y's (hip Athenienne„ Captain FORMAN, have prefeated Captain FAIRMAK with a Piece of Plate, value too 'uineas, as a telii mony of their fatisfaaion with his - handfotne conduct, and his attention to the flips under bis convoy, during the whole of the voyage, both homeward and out ward. It is with forrow we relate a melancholy circum- Rance which occurred on board the Mars during the late glorious engagement. The brave Captain Dorr bad two funs in the anion, one aged about twelve, and the other about fifteen. Early in the contett, the &It had both his legs carried away by a (tot 1 loon after the fecond fell !—and at lA. to complete the dißreffing groupe, the father himfelf was added to the lift of the Rain, leaving an amiable widow in a fitua tion too dreadful for defcription. The youth who loft his legs is likely to recover, and will, no doubt, receive all the reparation which a liberal Government and a fympathizing Country can bellow. The returns of the killed and wounded in the late glorious conffin, are yet far from being complete, althot.gh, no doubt, as much fn as was pranicable, c.nfidering the tempettuous Rate of the weather after the vilory. The noble Admiral gives the returns of ten • thips, except that the names of the Officers of the BELLEROPHON are not mentioned, and Rates, that thofe of thirteen t more had not been received, but four (hips appear unnoticed, viz.
