LONDO V, JU LY x 3, 1807. CAPT. BLAKE, of the Dispezt,o Cutter, arrived in Town on Saturday afternoon with Dispatches from Lord Sr, HELENS, as satisfadory as they are impor tant. On the i 7th of last month, a Convention wa3 signed at Petfrsburgh between Lord ST. HELENS and Count PANnz, by which ,all the differences be tween the two Countries were amicably termi nated. The other two Maritime Courts of the North, have been invited to accede to this Con vention, which they will doubtless do.

Copy of a Letter front Captain Thomas Rogers, Com mander of His Majesty's Ship Merciiv;; to Evan •IVepean, Esq. dated in Trieste Road, the .28th May t t 8o z SIR, , • I beg leave to enclose for their Lordships' infor mation, a copy of my- letter;Of the 26th inst. to Lord Keith, giving a detail of a very gallant service performed by the Boats of His . Majesty's Ship upder my command, which refleCts great credit to the Officers and Men engaged in it, and the hard ease of Lieutenant Mather being obliged . to relinquish the . Prize, after three hours' , possession, will not, I trust, in the opinion of their Lordships, lessen the merit of the enterprize. I have the honour to be, &c. &c. &c. T. ROGERS. 11~ercur r y, of Ancona, Afay z 6, tSO I. • MY LORD, Having received infgrin . ation by a small Wssel _ captured yesterday from AncOna, that His• Majesty's late SleoPßull Dag was laying:in the Mole of that port ready for sea, with supplies on board for the French Army in Egypt ; I judged it . necessary to Make an attempt to take or destroy her with the boats of the Mercury ; and. as our success depended upon surprising the Enemy, who was ignorant of our arrival in the Adriatic, (the Fortifications about the Mole being too forthidable to justify the attempt in any other Way,) .I therefore made sail directly for Ancona, and came to an anchor, soon after. it was dark, off the Mole ; ;he boats were aceOrdingly prepared, and left the Ship at half past ten o'clock, under the command of Mr. W. Mather, First Lieu tenant, from whose good conduct the Bull Dog was surprised, and carried about midnight, the boats having got alongside without being hailed by the Sentinels ; the alarm was, however, immediately given along the Mole, to which the Ship's stern was secured by the two ends of a bower cable, and three cables out ahead, these were soon cut by the people appointed for that purpose, and the boats began to tow, exposed to a heavy Fire of Cannon and musketry from the Mole, but as there was a fa. vourable light breeze, the sails were set, and in less than an hour the Ship, got without reach of the Bat.. series, and was completely ours., but unfortunately it fell calm, and a current setting her , along the ' coast near the shore, a crowd of boats (sonic of which were Gun Boats), filled with men, 'came out to attack her ; Mr. MathernOwlound his situation extremely critical, having the Hatchways to guard to prevent the Enemy rising-from below, the Boats' Crews fatigned with rowing all night, and the GUn. Boats approaching fast and raking the Ship, he had therefore the mortification of feeling himself obliged to relinquish his Prize, after being i.n pos-- session of her above three hours, and unfortunately failed in several attempts before he retreated, to set. her on fire. The moment I could discover the Bull Dog was out of the Mole, I got the Mercury under weigh,' but it Was almost a calm and impossible to get near her, as she had drifted with the current to a Con siderable distance from where the Mercury lay, and we experienced the mortifying disappointment of seeing her towed back- to the very spot from whence she had been so gallantly taken-; it is nevertheless. some degree of satistitdion to know, that her voyage must be at least delayed for a considerable time, if not quite defated, her masts and yards being shot through and disabled in many places and she has re ceived considerable damage in her Hull and Rigging. The gallant conduit of the Officers and Men em ployed upon this little enterprise will, I trust, meet. with your Lordship's approbation ; and it is from a desire of doing justice to their merits that I h ave been drawn into this, otherwise unnecessarily long detail. I have to regret the loss of two brave fellows killed, and four wounded upon this, occasion. The Enemy had above twenty killed, wounded and drowned. - _ I have the Honour to be, &c. T. ROGERS.
