On Saturday an account arrived at the Admiralty from Plymouth, (Wing the arrival there of the PAL LAs frigate from the Mediterranean, ccmmanded by Lord CocHaatis.

The PALLAS was too rich to hazard waiting to afcettain the point. EXTRACT OF A LETTER FROM AN OFFICER ON BOARD HIS MAJESTY'S SHIP PALLAS, ELYMOOTH, APRIL 6TH, 1805. cc We arrived here yelierday afternoon, about two o'clock, after having been out two months, as we faile'd from this place on the :IR of January. We failed for England on the 2 tit March, and were four, teen days on our pafTage from the Weliern Ifles.— We had very bad weather, and had not a fair wind for more than three days ; we were alfo fhort of every thing but Spanyh hallo/. When we arrived, thq people on (bore cheered us. I find it was reported I that we were taken. We were indeed very near it ; about fix or fevcii days ago bring chaced oy 0% es French line of battle (hips, which being concealed by a thick fog, we did not fee them till they were with in a gun-lhot and a half of us it blew very har.rl ak the time, and we had our top-m; li flruck. You may therefore imagine what a bugle we were in ; 'but w e gave them the flip in the night time and escaped." By the Lit authentic information which has been received of the fleet under Admiral Coco Rau c, it ap pears that it was taking '.n water at Lifbon, on the 9th of Match, and it is fuppofed failed the day fol lowing. On the loth the NIGER was the only Eng fhip of war in the Tagus. The LIVELY and SrEEDWELL failed on a cruize the ;9:h ; the Fon- LETTE three days previous. A Mail artived yellerday from Hamburgh, from which we have given feveral articles in a preceding column. The following Parit; letter is from a _Tat:mai printed at Altona, and thews, that the rumours of invation are again to be circulated with all the aeal poffible. Such a threat is not likely to he loon ele cuted—but knowing :he enemy we have to contend with, it is to he hoped no room will be left for having the fable veiified of the Shepherd 130 , 4. v.ho called Wolfe! Wolfe ! WI no one believed him. Extradl of a letter from March z z.—"Triere is a talk of two expated alliances, the crie between Auftria and France, and the other between France and Ruffia. There is even mention of a reciprocal embaffy between the two empires. It is laid, that ern forinably to the promife made to the Etryeror ANDER, France will evacuate the EleCtorate of Hano ver. In fail, the army which occupies that eleftorate, i s ditninifhing.

From thefe di:tt ibutions, it is prefumed, that the ex• pedition againti England, fo long deferred, will a; length be carried into effea. Several c.ircumflarcet c ontribute to furport this opinion, of which time alone can afcertain the truth. We are Anted, in the nip.) time, that Marthal MASSENA will have the command of the expeditionary army deßined againft England; Marthal ANGERELLI that of the army detlined aoaint Ireland ; and Martina MARMONT that cf the arml which is to land in Scotland.
