" To give you skill idea of our Rotation and prof pees, I will give you a (ketch of our proceedings Mice we left New York. On the sd of February we failed from thence to Pelmet, where we had agreed to meet a very fine (hip, which mounted 34 IR-pounders, and aao men on board, the Mailer and Owner of which had folemnly engaged to accompany and abut us ; yet, after waiting there from the lith of February to the 37th March, he, in a molt raf catty manner difappointed us, fo that we were oblig. ed to let off, accompanied only by two (mall fthoon• tn, which we had chartered at Jacketed. for the purpofe of ailing as tenders, and to leffen the exceC five crowd of men on board the (hip: After a long and difagreeable paffage, owing to our, in the fit*, inflance, having fallen to leeward of Aruba, and run I down to the bottom of the Gallas( Nanette, we, on the ryth of April, mad. the sea* of Carnes% and Rood in for it, with the inteinke attemptin a landing that night; when, sippeoodtbg the co . and getting every thing ready to land. we chimed two large brigs heating to illediVerd.

Finding, however, they could not get op to us before dark, we determined to at• tempt landing in the night time, and for this purr* gave the pilot orders to conduit the (hip into a roma' bal. " Unfortunately, owing to the &rimers of the night, and the fimilatity of the headlands, he Mir. took, and got to leeward of the place, which NOW :yldiged us to (land off, Rill determined to land early' In the moroiag. sw At day-light, however. we difcovered one of the brigs, which mounted twenty guns. and 101 l of men. almoß within flint of us ; dumber. which mounted sateen, arid full of men alto, about two miles to lee. ward. At this time we were, perfealy becalmed, *hint the larger brig had a breeze. with which Ote was Rending in (bore in chats of one of our ft:homers that we bad Cent in to reconnoitre. aid abfolutely got to nigh as to Me foetal (hots at her.

Finding that together they were too heavy fo r us, as we mounted only fixteen 9 pounders, we Rood off Chore. under eafy fail, in order to try to feparate theist, and, at the fame time, made fignals for nor Almon to keep el de by us ; this hpwever, they, from * What cause it is impoffitile to fay, negle&ed to do, and We had the tam tification to fee them cot off from mend captered.'without the poffibility of our being able to prevent it. On board the fchooners were eighteen Officers and forty men, moll of whom were the Rise of our little army, and all toy particular friends. After this revere lots, and being in want of weeet and provifions i we were under the nece ffi ty ming to the ifland of Bonair, where we got twin* two hnittheads of water and tome provifions, and rho determined on coming to this Wand, in hopes °Eget. ting affluence and fripplies.

A frigate and two Englills brigs had approached St. Vito from the Adriatic, when the inhabitant§ flew to arms, and at the fame time difpatched an expiefs to the Commandant at Lanciano, where the report had Scarcely reached, before four hundred young men took arms and offered themfelves as Volunteers. The Commandant. thanking them for their zeal, re. tamed them for his referve, and then marched for. ward in perfon at the head of one hundred French.

It is reported that orders have gone from the Admiralty, to eosin. 'emend the failing of part of them.

Sir jO/111 BOXLAIE WARILIM, on his arrival at Tortola, placing implicit reliance on the above information, failed on the 15th in dire& purfuit of the enemy, whole force then confined of feven fail of the line, three frigates, and two floops. One of the men of war failed very badly, and it is hill hoped that the Englill fquadron may have come up with and engaged the enemy. Sir J. B. WARRSII did not wait to fee Admiral CocKaaw a, who had gene to St. Kitt's and Antigua to coiled the veffels which are to compofc the homeward bound fleet, and vhizh were to fail for England on the :It of Augull." This information was immediately forwarded to the Admiralty, by the very relpeflable Gcndanwul by whom it was Waved. DUTCH PAPERS. We have received Dutch papers to the sr d, tilt they are very barren of intelligence. Indeed it can hardly be otherwife, for greatly as the Dutch Jour. nalifts were refrained before, they are now more fo. King Lours, by a decree emitted at Mayeocs oaths 6th infant, has not only fuppreffed one of the Am fterdam papers, the Alva jewnsof (Evening Herald), bat has decided that the unfortunate Editor mall not be employed in any periodical work. The nit. foa alfigned for this a& of authority Is the publics. don of foam free remarks upon Governments with whom his Maki, is at Peace. We have referred to the Dutch papers, but cannot find in them any std. de of this complexion. Indeed the difoovery would handy compenfate for the trouble of the feat*, fnoorritht,oduildd itw of a plan lai e d noh d ta o vea w r n ikth :y u th ir e tth F iat r t e w n th eh ortish Go diPecrh ve leele rnat toig en p 7 a t rt o k ftrangle, if poffiblit, the freedom of the profs in every country in Europe. When we recoiled. the prefumpo iuous correfpondence of Orr° and Mulattoes' ca this fubjea, and conned it with the extraordinary ro. gulations ordained in the teemed article of this De. tree, we are perfuaded that foam foch defign as we mentioned has been in the contemplation of 80. . It is not at random that liaggeftions era thrown out by his Lieutenant in Holland, refpetling the unlawfulnets of any private individual cm:titan; the proceedings of other Governments. They are meant to be afted upon, and will, we have no doubt,. &only become the balls of that code which is to impel or reftrain the public prefi of the Continent. Had we not the Decree before us, we could not have imagined that dello:oil* could be punted to far In an enlightened Rate as it appears to be in Holland. Fhe principle is broadly laid down, that even the alts of. other (foreign, we fuppote) Governments are only to be difcuffed in the tornoft privacy t horn which it may be isferred, that the ineaturea of Karl Louie are not to be tabjeft to any nomination whatever. When his 1114#1, pared this Decree, he, no doubt, exported that it would be duly appreciated by other Powers, and that &Oar ads ofeom plaifa cc e and good neighbourhood would not be wanting on their part. The confuted accounts from the Neapolitan tern'. tones do not enable us to afcertaio the extent of the clatters buffered by the enemy in that quarter. It is evident that the whole of the country is in a Rate of inforreftion, and that the French are extremely perplexed by the , frequency and diverllty of the at tacks which are made upon them General Veg eta& is Paid to hate made afire of retreating towards Haters, but to have afterward/ defeated the infur gents (not a word of the Bridal), and advanced again to Cotenant. It is to be deeply regretted, that cleans' fupport could not be given to the loyal and hardy Calabrians. The fangninary Materna is now advancing again& them with the whole of the French force, and two anticipate from him much horrible and widelpt end military execution. As there is nothing too high or too low; tee gene. ral or too minute, for the comprehentive genius of the Rovisrer of the French, we learn without forfeit*, that he bas compiled a Catechitm, for the one of the Churches in his empire.
