ANHOLT 111211 L. NAPI.RS, OCT. tB.—For some days several ene my's ships, and among them sotne scorridors, hare been cruizing within sight of our coast, fur the purpose of surprising some fishing-boats,, .or at tempting some other similar important enterpriza. On the i4ilrinst. two or three scorridors approached the solitary road of Ilagnioli, arid under cover of the night disembarked some soldiers, who found two empty carriages, and two coachmen, upon the shoulders of whom they exercist.d all their valour. In these tsVo coaches had arrived someagents'ef hortli,"and penple emphsyed in the customs, wbo if set out a few' minutes before for Nisita, in order to receive the.depositions of the crews of two yes- Sets 'pericirming quhi-a wine there,. and wh;cti; agree ably to the orders. of his Majesty, Must.'and had been arrested for having false papers.

The two poor coachmen alone sustained the shock and impetuosity of this great expedition., OCT. 1 t)...-WO learn from Portici, that his Ma jesty this morning went to Castellamare to insped the naval construaions upon which they are work ing in that dock-yard, as well as those of Naples. CovElattAoart, Nov. 2.—.

A.ccoidingly to all appearanees, the greater part of the ships which con posed it, must have been driven upon the coats of Mecklenburg, pornerania, and Prussia: where the wind raged with the greatest violence. ' Some sailors say r that on the 27Th 94lober, they saw an English frigate dismasted pdss, which with difficulty stood to the Southward. EXTRACT OF A 1./.3T•Titltlllol4 STOCKNOtti, NOV. 4.
