ISOLIM QUI; DICLAS lALIUM AUDiAT ? LONDON, THURSDAY, AUGUST z 6, 1804. YESTIADAY a Messenger was sent from the Ad. miralty to the KING, to acquaint him with the arrival of His Royal Highness the Duice of Subsex •c Portsmouth. Fits MAissry sets out for Weymouth in a few days, at which place he will be attended by the Yachts now in the River, and by one or two Fri. gates. THit gallant Admiral CORNWALLIS is still at Sr. Helen's, impatiently waiting a change of the strong persevering westerly winds, so unusual at this season of the year. Dispatches have been received at the Admi. ralty from Lord Necsow, and a number of pri. vate Letters are in Town down to the Ist of July, which state, that the French Fleet in Toulon is apparently ready for sea. Intelligence has been received, that 'tree of the homeward.bound Bengal Ships are arrived in the Downs. Captain RontrtsoN, of the Hit:dollar t, h appoint. eel to the Sfwyiture, an& not Sir SIDNIY SMITH, the health of this distinguished Officer not being yet sufficiently reestablished to enable him to take the command orany Ship. Sir SIDNEY SMITH is not the only person whose health has suffered from a long and constant state of anxiety and fatigue,' which must necessarily be co' nneded with $ command in the narrow and dan. gerous Passages, and the innumerable banks and shoals on the Coast of Holland. There is scarce. ly an Officer on that Station whose health has s'ot been materially injured by constantly keeping :It sea for sixteett•months. It is highly desirable, that both ships and men, as well those employed here, as on Channel Service, should occasionally be relieved, which we have no doubt will be the case in future, as the increasing state of our Navy, by the indefatigable zeal and exertion of Lord McLvtLL F, will, we dou'bt not, very speedily admit of such a measure. I d ol. night we received the Illottiteurs to the sth inn. but they bring very little intelligence. Borg. rARTE continued on the Coast as late as the Ist inst. reviewing the Troops destined for the Inva. bion of "this kwuntry : he was at ilniblet 4 et e on tbat day. It iA stated in the Atititeur of the 4.1.11, that IC k AHLIM litY, at the head of the M.tme;uk. , ,i, ltad, made himself tnltster of . Boolac and Old cairn, The Freuch Funds are 57. zo. • Private Letters have been receiveAlby the llam. ,furgh Ma 1, ,which state, that the French, having failed in their attempts to raise a Loan in Bremen, had aEtually blockaded that City, and had threaten. ed, if the money was not immediately advanced, to raise it by Military execution, It has been the invariable praftice of the French, since the . Revolution, to maintain their Armies at the expe' nee of Other States, anti the different Govern, snents of France have, when plunder wits to be obtained, made very little difference between Ene. Neutrals, or Allies. Application has also ecn made to the City of Lulea for a Loan, which has been refused. These outrages of the French must accelerate that Conic. deracy of the Northern Towers of which Dorm. rmura seems to feel such an apprehension ; and the circumstance of Louts XVIII., having left War. 54W leads us to suppose that the EMPEROR of RVs. 514 IP f ill very aeon take a decided part against France. While BONAP.A RTv was contented to govern France under thC title of Consul, the Egrattott of RUbSTA might consider that Country ai held in abeyance till" the.dcath of the Usurper, or 110113 e less fortunate event, might afft.ird a chance to the right. 01 Monarch of being put in possession of the Throne Which descended from his ancestors. But now that the Usurper has assumed the ti;lc of Emperor, and . a. his made the Crown hereditary in'his familyti iti 2enonabk that the EM IRO k of Rivet Ai and every • against an ma which strikes at all legitimate autho. riry, and may shake the foundation of every other Throne. We may therefore look upon the treatment which Louts the XVIII. has lately re. ceived from the Russian Monarch as something more than Royal courtesey, and perhaps as the harbinger of more effe6ual measures than have yet been taken to check the insolent,ambition and aggressions of :France, and to restore, if possible, the Govern. ment of that unhappy Country into its proper than. nel, Tuesday evening the ROYAL FA?4ILY walked on the Terrace. Yesterday morning His .MAJESTY and the PRIN. CES6ES Sorit TA and AMELIA, attended by Generals CARTWR IGHT and FITZROY, the Hon. Mr. VIL LIERS, and Lady THYNNE, rode in Windsor Great Park ; about one o'clock a viol en t shower came on, and H ts MAJESTY rode to Cumberland Lodge, and returned to Windsor in his chariot, drawn by six white Hanoverian horses. Pa tNc ROM SOPHIA and AMELIA followed in another chariot. HER MAJESTY and the other PRINCESSES took an airing to Frogmore. The Court of DireCtors of the East India Com. pany have voted the following - Suins to the Captains, Officers, and Seamen, of the China Fleet, for their gallant condua in beating off the French Squadron under Admiral LINO'S: To Captain Dance 2010 guineas, and a piece of Plate value zoo guineas ; to Captain Timms I.:co ditto, and a piece of Plate value 2.0 ditto. To Capt. Mottit so-) ditto, and a piece of Plate too ditto ; and Captains ft Wiison, Farquharson, Torin, Clarke, Me. ,riton, ‘‘'Oritswortli Kirkpatrick, Hamilton, Farrel., Fender. grast, Brown, Larkins, Lochner, coo guineas each, and a piece of Plate of so guineas.

Lieutenant Fowler, passenger on board the Camden, for the services he rendered Captain Dance, 300 guineas for a piece of Plate. The whole of this liberal donation will amount nearly to o, °col. Yesterday a Court. of DireElors was held at the East India 'IOUS% when the advises received over. land, from the Governor. General, were laid before the Court. The Court adjourned at six ,o'elock till Friday next. The Bengal Fleet, consisting of seven ships, and estimated at 2,000,0001. is expelled to arrive before the Ist Of next month, and no apprehensions are now entertained for their safety. The —Marquis WELLESLEY has transmitted a notification of his design to quit Bengal early in the ensuing season. The PATRIOTIC FUND seta noble example of the virtue from which it derives its name, in awarding such liberal remunerations to the Officers of the China Fleet, which so heroically drove away the French Admiral. This laudable aft should not be forgotten amidst the blaze of that extraordinary proof of munificent gratitude on which the East In. dia Company have resolved, respecting the same in. stance of British bravery. The transaetion, nn a ll hands, is truly characteristic of this Country---0,1 the one side, we see Heroism that hardly any but Britons could display ; and on the other, those li beral rewards which can bay be expeled from any thing but British Generosity. Dispatches were yesterday received at the Ad. miralty from Sir JAME.S SALOAAREZ, at Jersey, which state, that an expefiation was daily enter. rained of an attack from the Enemy, several move ments having of late been observed to have taken place. Dispatches were also received from Ad. tniral Tno aNBR 0000, dated nit the Texel,, the tn inst. The Enemy remained nearly in the same position as they did when the previous accounts were transmitted. The Royal North Britons were inspedecl and re viewed yesterday by Colonel JENKSNSON, in Harley Field. The Colonel was pleased to expiess hid high satisfadion in perceiving the great degree of discipline Which they; had attained, but regretted,'as he had done on former occasions, that their numbers were soltnall. It was intended that, after the inspection, the Corps should be reviewed by Major. General Nam, but, owing to his having received orders from the Comm Nang in CHIEF, to go to Ports. mouth nn soiue business of great importance, it was not in his power to attend, and a suitable apology Was, in conseque nce, made to th a t. effed. • • _ ..... The Loth Regiment of Loyal London Volunteers were also inspeard yesterday, in the East India Corn. pany's Field, by General GAMNIEL, who expressed great sat isfaCtion en seeing the perkttion Which they had attained. We are Authorized to eontradia the report stating the death of Mr. OtstoNo, Junior, on his way to Bath. The . tribute resp e ct which we paid to this Gentleman on 'Tuesday last, wa s founded on what appeared in the Morning rapers. his with very - great pleasure that we are enabled to contra. diet the, report, as he is a very deserving young man, and will, we doubt not, be' an ornament to the Literary World. It is surprising that people will sport with the feelings of 'parents and friends by such cruet effortt of, invention.
