On the tub we fell in vitb die Encounter and Ocean tranfport near the (oath coal of die river; and on the 13th we joined the (quadrats. It-was immediately determined to attack the capi. tel. and no time was loft in removing the Marine Battalion to the Narciffus, the Encounter, and the tranfports, for the purpnfe of proceeding to Buenos Ayres, while the Diadem blockaded be port of Mute Video, aid the Raifonable, and Diomede, by way of desnoniration, cruised seas Maldonado and other affailable points. Our prolirefs up the Hew was very much retarded by the &seine(' of the water, adverfe winds and ear. rents, continual fogs, and the great inaccuracy of Mt charts ; but by the unremitting and laborious cur. due of the caters .and men I had she honour to ammessi, eliefe-dilleulties were furnsonated, and she inane** on the afternam of the seth, off (thelmey a Pouiebin, about twelve miles from &NM Ayres.

The many was polled at the village of Reduaion, which was on an eminence about two miles from the beach, with the appearance of a fine plain between the two armies, which however proved on the follow ing morning to be only a morals in a high Rate of verdure. This, in Tome meafure, checked our advancement, nor did the enemy open his field train till the troops were nearly in the middle of the fwamp, from whence he thought it was intestable for them to be extricated. The able and excellent difpofition of General &- regard, and the intrepidity of his army, very foon, however, fatisfied the enemy that his only (afety was in a precipitate retreat, for we had the fatisfaainn of feting from the (hips near four thoufand Spool& ca. valry, flying in every direftion, leaving their artillery behind them, while our troops were akending the hill, with that coolnefs and courage. which has on every occaGon marked the chstraaer of a Bridal foldier,and has been exemplified in proportion to the difficulties and dangers by which he was oppofed. I have probably trefpaffed on a line that does not immediately belong to me ; but I could not refit! the gratifisation of relating to their Lordlhips what I law ; eluting myfelf, at the fame time, they will be convinced, if the enemy had given the fquadron an equal opportunity, I !bosld have had the pleating duty of reporting an honourable iffue to the eff‘a of their eminent zeal and exertions. On the nth. in the morning, we law tome firing near the Banks of the river Chiulo, but it blew fo hard that it was totally imprailicable to have any communication with the &ore during that day. Early on the sBth, a royal [elute was fired from the Callle of Borzoi Ayres, in honour of his Majel ty's colours being hoifled in South America, and Mihaly returned by the (hips lying off the town. I now confider it to be a proper moment for Sc. &nowledging in terms of the nomad gratitude, my high fenfe of - the zealous and animated conduit of every Officer and man in the fqoadron which I have the extraordinary good fortune to command. Captain Rowley, with Captain Edmonds under his orders, continued, as long as the weather would per mit, an advantageous demonfiration off Maldonado. Captain Donnelly, who did me the favour of re quefling I would go up the river in the Narcilrus, and to whom, from his rank, no fpecific fervice could' be ailigned in our (mall kale of operations, applied bimfelf in every occalion where he could promote the objeda of the expedition ; and, as he is charged with this difpatch.

Lieutenant Talbot, of the Encounter, usanifclicd great zeal in every inilance where it was neceffary to call on him ; Lieutenant Groves, of the Diadem, was alto very naive in laadiag the ordnance and ordnance Rorer u and I think it highly proper to Rate to their Lordfhips that thomalfers and crews of the diluent tranfports behaved with great attentina during the whole of this ferviee.

We have already Rated that the troops were de barked from the tranfports at Plymouth merely as conducive to their health, till the period &mild ar. rive lot their putting to lea. We can now Rate, in confequesce of orders from the War Office, camp at Buckland and Bickley Downs broke up pa Friday, and that the gnaw part of the troops have Noce been re-embarked on board the tranfpects in Stonehoufe Pool. The 45th. had, and 87th regi tants of foot, went on board on Friday ; the Guards, pd • Rtgatoent, and Rifle Corps, were embarked on Saturday, and when our accounts left Plymouth, the company of artillery, and the (toeen's Bays, about sea in anasbar, were preparing to follow as quickly mot immirports could be completed to receive them ; fild,the whole were ezpeded to be on board this day.

At Ransfgate too, every thing is again hs a Wile, Seven brigs marked C. N. F. H. P. and No. 556 and 557, entered that harbour with a fine (hip marked I, carrying a Commodore's flag. At four o'clock in the afternoon the 89th Regiment, commanded by Lord Btare sr. about Soo Rrong, entered Ramfgate and proceeded to the barracks, where they were to receive fosse refrefinnent previous to their being em barked. The Perthfhire Militia removed into tenu on the top of the Cliff to make room in the barracks. Part of the Royal Waggon Train are alto at karat gate, but we have not heard whether any part of them ate to be embarked. HAMBURGH MAIL. Yenerday the Hamburgh Mail, due on Weshul -1 day, was received at the Poll Office, as was silo a Mail from Gottenburgb. from which we have given 'atitple extraes in onr fill page. The preparations hit war in the Pruffian dominions Rill continue; and, to judge from this bunk, it might be expefted that "Ave boailities were about to commence. The greatell pains are taken to enflame the people and the armies. The Berlin Newfpapers- c,ontain war tongs, and anecdotes are related to rouse the ardour of the troops. It is remarked, that on the 29th of Auguft, 1756, the garrifon of flerlin quilted the city on the commencement of the gloriou s feven years war, and on the fame day 1806, after the lapfe of so years, the firft divilion of the garrifon marched out. At Muniler, General &voila harangued the troops, and tilled upon them, fhould circumfiances demand their exertions, to maintain the reputation of the Pruffian arms. A convention between Priam and He& has been concluded, and all the He fan troops will aft in concert with.Pruirra. A camp is to be formed between Burg and Magdeburgh. and all the regiments in Silelia have received orders to march into Saxony. The KiNG himfclf, it is raid, is fowl to join the army.
