SOLARI (1131$ DlCliti TALSUM a UDLAT LONDON, SATURDAY, AUGUST 31, 1805. We have little to add to what we stated yesterday respeeting the various reports relative to the course of the Enemy's Combined Fleets. It is still sup. posed that they have got into Rochefort, which they might be the more induced to do, in conse quence of false intelligence said to have been con veyed to them from the Dragon, through the me dium of a Dane, 'that a British Fleet of 24. Sail of the Line was very near at hand. It is stated by a Cartel arrived at Plymouth, which left Corunna on the ..Q3d instant, that every vessel that could keep the sea bad been ordered out by'an Express-from Paris ; that after having sailed on the f2th, a new Commander in Chief arrived. Itis fur ther stated, that the Combined Fleets, when they re.. sailed, consisted of fifteen Sail from Vigo, and eleven from Ferrol, making together twenty-six Sail of the Line, to which were added seven Frigates and eight smaller Vessels, making in the whole forty-one Sail. It was reported at corunna that the object of their destivation was Brest, which seems to strengthen the conjeaure of their getting iutct Rochefort. • . It WO the Difence, Capt. Hors, and not the Defiance, I,vhicli the Trimmer Cartel, fell in with on the gist. Sir It. CALDER'S Fleet was then in sight, steering to the North-West; the same course as the , Combined Fleet were in on the 15th, when they were seen by the Naiad. if they have not therefore got into Port, Sir Itonara;, was in the right track to, fall in with them. It is now stated that the ,L)ragon spoke an Ame rican on the tsth, Who stated * that on the preced ing day, in lat. 46.. 18. long. 9. W. she was hoarded by' a French Ship"of War, which belongel to a Squadron of five Sail of the Line and three, Fri gates, which had , on the same day burnt a Swede and a Dane. Whether this was the Rochefort Squadron, on the look out for our homeward-bonnd Fleets, or a detachment from the Combined Squa drons, i not ascertained. The Pomona Frigate * arrived at Portsmouth from Lisbon, has brought several- Letters from.' the Of.. kers and others belonging to the captured Antigua Vessels, who were on board the Combined Fleets during tl'e Action of the 22d, and who all agree in stating, that the Enemy received very great damage, and sustained a heavy loss . of men in the ae.tiou, much greater in both respeas than is stated in the French Admiral's dispatches. Ws now learn that the interment of His Royal Frighne , s , the Duke of GLOUCESTtR is not, as hi therto stated, to take place at Weqminster, but in a private inr.lmer at Windsor. According to reports in the diplomatic circles on the Continent that are not influenced by a dread of France, the preparations now making, not against that Country, but against its vile Usurper, and the Great Disturber of Mankind, arc of the most fprmi dable description, and such as may well appal the Tyrant, and make him tremble at the consequences. These reports state, that three hundred and fifty thousand Austrians, twa hundred and fifty thousand Russians, and forty thousand Swedes, are ready to commence operations. Of these - Armies, it is said, that one hundred thousand Austrians, and an equal number o Russians, am to be employed on tho Rhine ; tv.'n hundred thousand Austriani,. and sixty thousand Russians in Italy and Swit zerland. The forty thousand Swedes and an equal number of Russians are said to be destined' to 're-take Hanover ; and, according to the same reports, a British Army will at the same time make an attack .on Holland, where they are not likely to have any but French to oppose them., as the Dutch have suticred too much under their oppres sors to be likely to assist in their cause, and, in fa&, to opposes their own deliverance, If we were to 'credit other Continental rumours, which are in deed strongly prevalent, we should be induced to think that even the Turks are to co-operate in the grand attempt to rescue Europe frotn the gripe of an ambitious Usurper, who seems desirous to monopolize the Goverunient di all States, and who has therefore made it a common cause with ail States to attempt his destruCtion: A part of the grand plan now in agitation, is, it is understeod, to Spa:n in different points, in order to induce the Monarch, to declare himself agninst the Cor.,iean yoke, which he is said to he very willing to do. In the midst ()fall these retyms, it is natural wfitia home :teeQuuts of intended movements in fa vour of the unforttniate House of BOLTtz ON; 1.0 it is accordingly said, .that a large body of, Russians and other Troops are to attempt some vulnerable part of France, headed by a BOURIrN PRINCE, in the name of Louis XVIII. the rightful King of France, the ALLY of England, Russia, Austria; SWe ien, and Turkey, against the 'Usurper of his Throne tnd the Oppiessor of his Subjects. His Most Chris tian Majesty, it is also confidently said, is to be fur nished with the means of raising a formidable Army, and that he is to issue a Proclamation to inform his Subjeets that their deliverance approaches, if they are willing to be rescued from disgrace, misery, and despotism. The Circular Letter issued from Vienna, and ad dressed to the Magistrates of the different Bailiwicks, which our Readers will find in another part of this Pa per, fully confirms what appeared in Tun SvN of the 13th inst. in which we stated, that there were very strong reasons for believing that want of Bread was a mere pretext for the riots that took place in Vienna, andthat all the disturbances were secretly instigated by .Emissaries from France. Some dour Competitors affeCted . to doubt this intelligence, and to consider it as a fabrication: intended to bring odium upon the I.lsurrr. It is certain, however, that EMissaries froth France lurk in every place in Europe upon the watch for events, and ready to lend their helping hand to. whatever may tend to shake the Govern ment,. whet:ller or not in alliance with their upstart Lineeror, In our subsequdut columns will bo found some interesting Correspondence, which lately took place between the neutral Consuls at Cadiz and Admiral POLLING WOOD, The Amazon Frigate, th)111 the Mediterranean, a t rriv(d off Cork on the '.e4th inst. with intelligence of .:the sailing of the CCnibined kleets ; in came, 9uence of which, the Terrible, .Diadem, and Bet. Milieux Men of War., Narcissus mid Leda Frigates, were Moored at the entrance of the Harbour : the whole 'of which were so placed as not to Obstrua he fire of the Batteries, from having its full effect. The Commerce, TEuxcf..,L, froM America, is de tained and sent into. Yarmouth. The mysterious and most reprehensible article which appeared on Thursday last, in a Morning Pa per, is so utterly destitute of foundation,, that it could obviously be fabricated for no other purpose than upon Mr. BAYES'S principle, not ". to elevate," indeed, but certainly " to surprtze." . Yesterday we received American Papers to the 26th ult. They furnish nothing of importance. The harvest in America had been nearly got in, and was the most plentiful that had been known for a number of years. On the 28th of June a duel was fought on the boundAry line of North and South Carolina, between Brigadier General SMITH and Captain 141AmtiCE MOORE, both of Wilmington. The former was shot below the right breast j and his life was despair ed of. A few Dutch Papers reached Town yesterday, but their contents are unimportant. It was ru moured in the course of the day, on the authority of a private letter from the Hague, of the 20d instant, that BONAPARTE had suddenly quitted Boulope on the 18tb, in consequence of dispatches received by him from Paris, and that orders had been received in Holland to Huvend the further embarkation of Troops in the 'Ports of that Country. Earl CAmnEN and Viscount CASTLEREAGH dined yesterday with Mr. PITT, at his house at Putney, where they were accommodated with beds. The Mortello Towers now building in the neigh bourhood of Folkstone, are considerably advanced in their progress : they are three in number, and form in position an unequal triangle. They are in tended as a pre tthion to. East Wear Bay, the most exposed and assailable point of any on the coast of Kent. The Keep of Sandgate Castle is also con vertlng into a Tower of this description, and two. others arc building within the wall of the Castle of a smaller size, each of which are conneaed with the central Tower by an arched covered way. The 2d Regiment of East India Volunteers arrived in town yesterday from Maidstone Barracks, where they, have been relieved- by the Ist East India Regi ment, who, in their turn, will be replaced by the 3d, which paraded yesterday, and were served out with clothing, knapsacks, and necessaries, ready to march on Monday morning. 'Perhaps there is no region which has been ex plored with SO little success as the expanded plains of Ethiopia, intersected through an extent of 3000 miles by two of the most considerable rivers with which geographers are acquainted. We haVe seen with pleasure the exertions of the adventurous tra veller, Mr. PARK, in those countries : the south of the vast'continent of Africa is now to be explored, under the auspices of the KING of PRUSSIA. Dr. GOLDPUSS, at the Royal expence, has undertaken a journey of three years : the first is to be devoted to discoveries in the vicinity of the Cape; the second in the distri6ts of Caffraria; and the third in the set-, tlements on the shores of the grand lake of Marawi, . On Monday a Grand Match of Cricket whs played in the Upper Barrack-yard, Deal, between the Of ficers of the Guards, with Razell and Winser given, against the Marquis of TAVISTOCK, and the East X..trit yeomen, with Mr. COOPER, for one hundred guineas. Won by. F;ast Kent, by g wickets, after some excellent play.
