At ter. in the morning he began the attack. The enemy teemed to defpife his inferior force, but when they appeared in line at a (bort dillance. he gave or. ders to his little fquadrnn to open their fire, which was fo fuccefsfully executed, that after a warm anion of two hours. the Ruffian veiTels were obliged to make off. They would have even fallen into our poi feffion, if the calm had not been followed by . a breeze from the north. which proved favourable to them, and by taking advantage of it, with the help of theit fails and oars, and affilled by towing. they got under proteition of a Ruffian 74 gun Ihip, which was blockading the ifland. )4. Stalimini purfued them almoft within reach of her guns ; he then tacked ab,•at, and fleeted fpr Milne, where he conduified the Italian convoy of guns, ammunition, provifions, and troops ' under his potation with which. at five o'clock the fatpe evening , be an chored at the illand of Lana. • The enemy was afraid to appear in the Baiza chan nel, to oppofe the paffage of the tranfports. - The Officers, foldiers, and tailors did their duty and the Serjeaut of the Marine Artillery particularly dillinguithed himfelf on this oecalion.

It was aril intended to equip only feven. Thi fleet will be ready for tea the end of the month : the troops that are to he embarked on board the froadron, are daily exercited, and trained accor ding to the new fyllem. The Grand Vizier is now employed in putting In motion a great number of troops, which have alto been trained and difciplined in the Eut opean manner. They are ri• form 'a corps de referve in the rear of the army, whith'' is to march into Servia against the rebels.—Mewitear, 71,11 e 19.

As may naturally be fur poled, theft are merely the excurfions of a few pa trules. The weaknets of the Enghlh army allows them to do nothing mare. They can ted off Tome cattle and burnt two or t h ree farm hnufes—a moft eniferable kind of decollation, lust which fufficiently thews the date, of war in which the Englilh and Pruffians are engaged. General Blather has been fo negligent as to (offer this damage to be committed, although he has a conadoroble force under his command. But he keeps it con clantly in the neighbourhood of Cleves and Berg. He has received orders on the ruble& from his Government, and it is probable that the Englilh will make no more defeents. Meanwhile the communications between Pruffia and England continue to exifl. M. de Jacobi is Rill at London. Pruilla does not with war—and England makes it—a fituation extraordinary enough. The Baltic Rill remains free. PruMa has not !hut her ports there againft the Englith, and the latter commit no hoßilities in that fea.—Mertimw, June 19. Juts to.—We are now sabred, that the anfwer brought from London by the Courier, M. Brugge mann, has induced our Monarch to form his ultimate refolution, with which another Courier has been MC patched to London. It now depends entirely on the Brit& Government, whether his Majeßy's inten tions, which are adapted to exiling ctrcumflanses, (hall be carried into execution. The anfwer erpeeed will elf° determine whether Baron Jacobi will quit London immediately, he having received orders for that purpofe, fhould events render that Rep inevi table. A Ruffian Courier has alto arrived here from St. Peterfburgh : he has proceeded in great bane for London. According to report, he is the bearer of a letter to the Prince of Wales, written by the Empe ror Alexander's own hand. Vieux A, June 2.—We now know for certain, that two thoufand of our troops have entered Cattaro, which had been previoully evacuated by the Ruffians. The place was afterwards furrendered to the French, agreeably to the treaty of Prefburgh. Every thing that has been faid in the Foreign Jou rnals of new engagements forming by Auftria, is en tirely deflitute of foundation. All the meafures and difpolitions cf our Court tend to peace. The only difficulty which remained, is now removed by the evacuation of Cattaro. From the frontiers of Turkey they write, that the chief part of the Servian army had left the Banks of the Drina, and had laid dote liege to Belgrade.— They have crated three batteries, from which they greatly annoy the garrifon. The Turks made a fally to deßroy one of there, but the attempt failed. T 0 judge from the ardour of the air:titan's and the wants of the garrifon, it cannot be expetied to hold out long. The Board of Finance has ordered a farther fain of money to be applied in the redemption and extinc tion of a quantity of the Rate paper. Just 4.—The laft letters from Trick Rate, that three days before the departure of the pot, General Bellegarde, and the Auftrian Marine Commandant, Lepin, bad failed to Cattaro, to receive that place from the Ruffians.

Count RafomovrOty however, as not to return to St. Peter(burgh, but to remain at Vienna as a private individual. Before the Emperor fet out for Luxemburg, be gave a public audience, at which Baron Thugut was pretest. The French Ambatrador, M. le Rochefnucault, has taken a country feat near Enzendortf.

Sir Asszettnea - Coemaaaa has fent out a force after them, and great hopes arc entertained of their meet ing with them. A number of captures has lately been made by the privateers of the enemy. The rainy feafon had fel in; but in all the Wands the troops were very healthy. Doctor KM, the Infpedlor of Hofpitals, was recovering. General BOYAR attended by Dollar Rees, and the General Staff of the Leeward iflands, was about to fet out on an infpeeion of all the iflanda. The only Regiments immediately coming home are the 7th, s ith and 68th. The tith and 68th were preparing to embark, their account' were ordered to be made up and finally doled to the 24th May ; and their men to be allowed to volunteer into the 15th, 46th, 70th, and 96th Regiments. General Baciwtrn had fet out for his Government at St. Vincent's. About the ift May there was an earthquake which was generally felt through all the Ulan& At St. Vincent's aoo men of the ad battalion were expelled to the firft battalion of the prR Rotsinsset which has fuffered fo much by the yellow fever. Since oar laft, we have recei►ed the* Hamburg's papers due by the mail of Wednefday (not yet are ri►ed), Dutch Journals to the ;oth What, and Pull papers to the fame date.

The whole of his attendants, the whole of dui *affirm at the Hague, and the whole of the OlSCert who arc inveßed with authority there, are French. The Illaniteur of the t9th, in a letter frosNienna of the sth June, fay*, that the Aultrian General fist; LEGAID2 and M.

The report from Vienna of the ad, in the dforlitnir of the t7th, that 2000 Auttrians had actually entered the place and delivered it to the French, fe.ms premature. But there noli can be no d übt of the fae having by this Rise taketi place, as the Ruffian Government is known to have yielded to the folicitations of the Court of Vienne. The fame journal Rates that General LAURISTON D with 6000 men, has taken pofeffion of Ragufa, oil pretence of protefting it againft the Montenegrins.— This little town, a tolerable feaport, with fome trade to' the Levant, will, doubtlefs, be nuked to the French dominions in its neighbourhood.

It is nnw underliood that NI/101.10S has espreffed a willingnefs to treat with Ruffia and Britain is conjwaffien, whereas formerly he infißed onfepartue negotiations only. It is therefore not sbfurd to fup, pole that this may lead to lome endeavours to reflore peace-at any rate Minifiers will not refute to heat what fort of balls may be offered for a negotiation. Certain it ir, that difpatebes are palling between the two Governments. On Saturday, at to A. M. a Mr. WILIRAHAM, the fame Gentleman • who failed from Deal ladlt•oday, landed at Dover with air.. patches, with which he immediately let off for Lon• don. He left Boulogn on SAturdav morning at (oi o'clock in a fifhing.boat, and was put on b tard VESTAL frigate, lying off hat port. The wind ben from the S.
