Mr. HARVEY, the late Master of the Leicester 7.,!:et, some time since captured on her passage •n the West Indies, arrived late on Monday iti ;t ht, at Falmouth, from Scilly, and reach ed town yesterday morning. Mr. H A ItVIY came home from the West Indies, in a mer chant vessel, the William, of Newcastle, bound to Lond.in, one of the Leeward Island fleet, from whit h s'te parted company, about a month since. On the 2.3 J last, the William fell in with the Had duet schooner, Lieutenant So LEY, with a Mail from Jamaica, having been dispatched from thence, in consequence of the capture of the packet, sup posed the Chesterfield, in sight of Jamaica. Mr. HA ItV EY went on board the schooner, which WAS then in company with the Cakufta man of war, of 50 guns, Capt. Wooont r F, with seven sail of vessels, underconvoy from the East Indies. O:t the 25th, in lat. 49.40, long. 11.40, a French frigate came up, being part of a squadron of five sail of the line, and two frigates, then in sight, and engaged the ('aleutta an hour and ten minutes, but was then silenced. —Shortly after, a line-of-battle ship came up, and commenced an engagement with the Calcutta, but it soon ended ; and, it is supposed, the Cat es•qa struck. The French squadron took the WI:- liam, and another of the Leeward Island fleet ; and what became of the French squadron, or the Calcutta's convoy, Mr. II A as , E v cannot say, as they saw no mare of them after, it being nioe o'clock at night, when the Haddock lost sight of them, at which time the Calcutta was left in the all of en gaging the enemy. This account was sent fr,m by the Placer sloop of war, to Admiral co RN- W ALLIS. Mr. HA RVEY land. 4 at Penzance, in a cutter from billy, and the schooner, with the Mails, is hourly expelled. Such, we understand, is the report made by Capt. HARVEY. It circulated, yesterday, with great rapidity in town, and excited a considerable sensation iu the City. Recollecting, however, the many false and exaggerated reports, eqnally plausible, which prevailed during the late chace of the French Fleet, by Lord ttlaistse, we are encouraged to hope that our loss, if any, is not so great as it has been represent ed. Some reports state, that the Calcutta, and seven sail of homeward bound East-Indiamen, have been altu.tlly taken; but Captain Ha a- VEY'S account, which is the only one received, falls far short of this representation. We kno that even Captain 11 a vtv's account is not supposed to be come at the East India House. The Indiamen supposed to have been captured are, the Ocean, Lord Eldon, Totientinm,Traeers, (In.-on, and Indus. The Ocean had not arrived front Madras, at Bengal, when the Belle Packet sailed from thence the Ist of April. The Lord Eldon and Tottenham were to proceed for Bencoolen to load, but had not left Ben gal on the Ist April. The Travers and Union are outward bound, therefore, it is not possible, that either of these ships could have arrived at St. Helena. —The Calcutta man of war, with the Indus, were at St. Helena, the 20th of July, and no other ships were expelled. It is very probable, therefore, that the Calcutta, which had been there some time. would not remain longer than was necessary to bring home some South Sea whalers, which,with a few straggling ships that may have availed themselves of the ad vantage of coming home under her convoy, may, no doubt, have made up the fleet seen by Captain HARVEY. In this number, it is understood, were two South Sea whale's, and two Swedes. The enemy's ships were, probably, the Rochefort squa dron, so often seen in that quarter, but which was generally supposed to have returned to port. We had scarcely heard of the appointment of Sir Si om ev SMITH to the command of the squadron off Boulogne, when we find his enterprising spirit displayed, in an attempt to annoy the flotilla in that harbour. Various accounts have reached us, but, we believe, the following is the most c3rreet : Monday night, being very dark, two long galleys, with some other boats, stoutly manned by a number of volunteers from the Utrecht, Admiral's ship, the Antelope, and some other ships, entered the harbour of Boulogne, unperceived, and set two of those fire-ma chines, called carcases:, adrift, which ran along with the tide, among the shipping. They were filled with a quantity of combustible matter, and were to ex plode at a given time (fifte , 4l minutes); in this they succeeded; but, from the powder being too weak, or some other cause, they had not the desired effea, al though a very considerable conflagration ensued.— l'he men in the boats were, unfortunately, discovered at the same moment, by the soldiers at the batteries, who direftly commenced a heavy fire of musketry upon them ; the shot flew about them like had, and a great qnanti:y went throughthe boats ; one man •T.eismovoi , ;,!vv. .."•'`*tr 4 ' l !• l o. 4lll PVllPlirip l o , PN -7 t . . had nat les. than t!::-ee %has through the Cr in.. his hat ; some state, that two men were ; the general belief is, that only one MCI was wounded. Were we to change places w•tii French, and were a French flea[ td any which BONA PASTE sh,ntld please, to bloc .asi F i ts. mouth as an English squadron now blockades 8 00 , logne and Calais, we might expeC't to be kept in tot). tinual alarm, by a succession of stratagems. genuity of the French was stiposed to have be a t I erted ever since the attack of Lordiqtasoa, up n ., I Boulogne, in devising plans to render that haznoni• completely unassailable. The public, consequerca, expressed no surprise nor disay.'poiimrrat, on finsii ik day succeed to day, without any atterwpt to anr.i r the Boulogne flotilla. The late experiment he Sir SIDNEY SMITH, chews, hios•ever, that ti,e harbour of Boulogne is nut inaccessible, and t h, adive mind of that gallant Of er.coura.7es confident expeaation, that some means i• vised for the destru Rion of the boa.ted fl it contains. • A considerable relaxation has taken place With:a these few days in some of our star einitsinea.s,- end a number of workmen have beet d .chaagsd,. circumstance has given ri.e, in s-ime eincles, opinion, that certainly some kind of negotiation fn peace is now on foot, in which Prussia a.% fice of Mediator. We believe, however, that th . .::e is no ground whatever for this rumour. A ben. : reit ;on may be assigned for suspending, the equ ;- 111:?elti to which we have alluded. The Emperors of f:t..SSI A and A t.ST eta ha cc, we underst , id, ec titiedto our Court. that if the miney intenderito laid our in certain attempts, on our part, be furnisfrd to them, they can, with the same means, brit much more powerful fortes iat-i the field, than could rssibly be accomplished by an expendi.uw w slat same amount in this country. Mr. Ssittli, the Messenger, left t..le • on XV '. nesday night. with dispatches for the 1 / 4 2,J., .1 Berlin. The accounts presented to the Haute of Tr.. mons, oe the 20th Jano, respaeting nrsaies p der warrants or precepts of the Barmis of th: chequer; His MAJ EST If's hereditary and r-serv-d revenun and land rents; gr.tnts of land and bi shopric rents; pensions recently charged upon His Mislays-Y's civil establishment; and monies issued under any other authority than that of w trrants Irons the Barons of the Exchequer, in Scotland, have betn recently printed. We this day lay an extraEt from them befh - re our readers. The Cat, Captain NI , K ILLoca, from Demerara, is arrived at Lamlask ; she parted from the fl et, on the 24th of August. The vessels of this :oa voy, before arrived, are supposed to be the oat ones that parted company in the gale of th- sth and tidy of September. It wa , reported, at Liverpool. on the Ist. inst that the fleet passed Cork on the 26th ult. The Merchants, Undarevri•ers, and other ham bitants of I,,vei pool were requested, by advertise. meat, by order of the MA von, to meet on Monday last, at eleven o'clock, in the CoonciLroom, Brans wick -street, in that town, to take into consideration the propriety of sending an immediate supply of provisions and water to meet the West India 'etr so long expeded. One of the prisoners who was on board the sloop Friends, pooDwi Lc, retaken by the Badger Excise cutter, on Sunday, between Dover and Calai', says, that the whole of the troops, who were intended to invade this country, are marched off to the 12.!..ne, and that the batteries all along shore are now gar ;- coned by the mariners belonging to the flotilla, and the inhabitants of Boulogne. Mr. Foss's* will leave town on Saturday or Sun day next for Ireland. It is expeded that he oil re turn tc England in about a month. Some persons have expressed doubts of the accu racy of the assertion, that the Eledor of BAVARIA had concluded a Treaty A ith the Emperor of Cr SI ANY, and had joined the Allies. The .e d rest chiefly upon the circumstance of no memoal having been made of such a Treaty in the Cerro I-1 Papers, brought by the last Hamburgh Mails. '1: .• ' last French Papers, however, hint at the Treat ) , and state, that a proposition was made to the ELICTOC by the Emperor of GINMAMY, to j(111, the Eledoral to the Imperial troops. Besides, we know that Government have received, as we stated several days ago, the intelligence of the Er.sc . roa having declared in favour of the Allies. That part of the specie lately sent from the Bank of England to Portsmouth, has been put on boars. the Rval Sovereign, of 110 guns; the Defiance, of 74; and the Renommi frigate, of 44 ; all of which are bound to Malta. The amount was yesterday in sured from all Risks, at LLOYD'S, at a premium cl 50s. per cent. to return 95. 6d. for all sums s.i in sured, which should ultimately appear to have bee., forwarded in ships carrying a wra:er tome thus 50 guns.
