LONDON, . MONDAY, OCTOBIR The Expedition has sailed from Portsmouth, escorted to Falmouth by the Curies:l. The GJZfile of Saturday night contains the official account of the capture of the tour French frigates off Rochfort, by Sir SANIDeL HOOD, on the ‘24th s and of Le Prreident, another Fs each frigate, off Belle isle, on the 27th last, by Admiral Lours. ally three of Sir SAIMUIL Huoo's squadron were en gaged in the former capture, viz. the Monarch, Cot tJtir, and Mars ; the others were too much to wind ward, and did not sail fast enough to be able to as sist in the action. The Centaur, Sir SA mutt. liooes and Le Gio.re, of 46 guns, the French Commodore's vessel, have arrived safe at Portsmouth. The other I - three French frigates, taken by Sir SAMUIL tiooo's squadron, and also la President, prize of Admiral Louis, have arrived safe at Plymouth, with tare Mare, Monarch. and Acidic. It appears from our Ply mouth letter, given in our last page, and which supplies many interesting particulars, not noticed in The Goseue, that the troops on board the French squadron from Rochfort amounted to about 1,000 men, and had no ofßcer on board above the rank of Colonel—lt is probable, therefore, that they were not destined for Buenos Ayres, as some supra', being unequal to its re-capture, but were intended as reinforcements for Martinique or St. Domingo, perhaps both. Upon the first blush, the result is only such as might be expetted from an engage ment between three English ships of the line, carrying 74 guns each, and four frigates, one of them of 46 and the rest of 44 guns ; but the dispa rityof form was by no means considerable. It has been the praCtico of the French to seed out their troops not in transports as we do, bat in armed ships. Sir Sweet Horse's prizes appear to have been built large and roomy for that purpose, and are in size far above the class of *curls of that force. — The gallon Commodore, in his modest letter, says, that when first discovered, he considered the enemy's squadron of seven sail, in part, line of battle ship' ; and our Portsmouth Correspondent, who, probably, did not take a skiff or a cockle shell for his standard, describes Le G;sire as a " tremendous large ship." 'They appear, also, to have carried very weighty me tal, proportioned to their sine ; le-pounders on their main-decks, and 30 pound carronades on their qaarter•decks and forecastles. The sea, also, ran so high, as to prevent the Afrosnrch, the ship prin- cipally engaged, from opening her lower ports, and the troops on board the French frigates, added much to the weight aid severity of their Ara.— Considering. then. that the three English ships As the 'Sion, were only 74's, the enemy cannot be said to have been over-matched.—The French, with a view to diminish the eclat of this achievement, may say, that their frigates were opposed to ships of the line, and, had viSory favoured them, might boast that their frigates triumphed over ships of a superior class. We do not believe that these fri. gates were built of such large dimensions. in con templation of such events ; but it is tight to guard against the erroneous conclusions which might be drawn from the false idea of force an sewed to a vessel. which, though frigate-hunt, is, is faa, equal in metal and size to a ship of the line. Sir S•rutt. HOOD'S arm was shattered by a Wil e when he was in the aft of extending it, and giving orders. The amputation did net take place for two hours after the wound, the Surgeon hoping that be should be able to save the limb. On Friday he arrived at Portsmouth. in as favourable a state and as good spirits, as could be expeaed. Soon after his arrival, he was landed at the Isle of Wright, and continued the remainder of the day at Ryde. Let tars were on Saturday receive,: from him, and as he signified his intention o! proceeding by easy jou:nits to London, he is expeaed at his house, in Wimpole. street, in the course of this day. His letter to Ad miral COTTON was Sin'S ed with his left hand. The slight manner in whit h he notices the loss of his arm is a noble proof of his heroism. Le Prr , i lost, the frigate taken by Admiral Louts, was one of the sqoadron consisting of the Regales of So guns, and three or fout frigates. which has been so long cruising upon the coast of Africa.— She separated float her companions on the 20th Aegusts proh.eny in the hurricane which did so much mischief in ihe latitude of the Leeward Islets!. about that time, and was steering for L'O tient. Hops art entertained that La Teetriii, of 44 guns. nod the ts a brigs, 1 yes and Srdth i which eica,red from Sir SA MULL HONO, will ultimately share the fate of their compauioss ; as all our crui .-. . . am are upon the alert, ana the iedrfaign6l4 Ms' zard, and Avotante, are closely watching for them at Bordeauz and Rochefort, conceiving that they would he likely to attempt their escape into one of these ports. —....--- We seldom see the name of Sir done Newroar in the Irish Papers. but he may be traced in eve' y part of that country by his good works. and his zeal in forwarding the plans which he suggested last Session, for the physical and mental im provement of that part of the United King dom. Among many abuses of long standing in that country, none has been more flagrant than the misapplication of the funds, most of them flowing from the Royal bounty, for the education of the poor, and their diversion into the pockets of individuals for their private uses. —We may now congratulate the country upon the speedy dissolution of that system, and the happy pros pea of better times. A letter front Dublin, received on Saturday. says, " Under an Alf of last Sessions, twelve Commissioneys are immediately to be ap pointed to inquire into the state of education in this country, and the funds applicable to that pur.! pose. Of these, seven are to be named by the Lomb Lieutenant, and five have been already eleded the Incorporated Society. The latter are the Ambit bishops of Dustily and Carnet., the Paovost of Trinity College, the Dean of St. PATRICK'S, and the Reverend Mr. WHIT IL ASV, Vicar of St. Catharine's." Society does not afford five individuals mote com petent to this laudable task. The Reverend Mr. Wu I TELAW is a Mau whose mind has been directed to the subjet of education in a peculiar degree.— At a very early age, he wrote an iateresting little work, iatldetil. Patent el Solicits& ; and, with the same laudable intention, he has recently published, 4 7 realise ~we the Popolotion of the City of (Pullin, the materials of which he colleted at great ex• peace, and mach personal ibeonvenience and boar. wwwweimayeremerbsoort Yesterday morning His MAJRSTY paraded the Royal Horse Gourds.

Princesses ELI and Maay, had divine service performed in the Palace; they afterwards went to Froginote, and returned with His Majesty. His MAJESTY is expeted in town on Wednesday, to bold a Privy Council. A Messenger arrived on Saturday afternoon at Viscount HOWICK*B Office from Russia. Lord Stoaratii arrived at Yarmouth, on Thurs day evening, on his way to Berlin, and embarked, next morning, under salute, on board a frigate in Yarmouth Roads, and has proceeded to the Elbe. It was reported, yesterday, that a French Jour nal, La Publicist', had been received, of so late a date as the 49th ult. which states, that hostilities had commenced between France and Prussia.— We have reason to doubt this statement, as letters were received on Saturday. from Holland, of the 29th. which ate entirely silent on the subjet. Had it ken a feet, the intelligence would have reached Rotterdam some days sooner than Paris. The friends of Mr. Ti aaaaa and Sir Thomas Tuatort have commenced a very elite and spirited canvass in the Borough. The opposition to Mr. Manse, in this contest, will be much stronger than any he has ever met with. The Herbert. Geotoa, from Grenada for the Clyde, is lost near Strangford, crew saved.

A report prevailed on Saturday, and gained ground in the course of the evening, that Govern went had received intelligence, upon which they could rely, of another great vihory hewing been gaMed by the British troops in Calabria over the French. It was added, that General R tan ic a had been once more defeated, and the vinery was even more desperate and decisive than the battle of Melds ; that the bayonet charge by the Briti,S again decided the fate of Ile day ; that ('.enetal Rigouts was wounded ; and that we took VIIr• session of two wrong towns.
