PALSUM AUZ,EAT LONDON, JANUARY i 6, iSo.}:: THE firing heard last week in the quarter of Boulogne, proceeded, it appears, from a part of the French Flotilla having moved into the Outer-road, and there firing Salutes for several hours succes sively, This we suppose is to praftise the French Soldiery in the use of great guns. The immorta fite' witnessed the manc;Euvres of the French, but did not exchange a shot with them. Tx is morning we received Ilionit:urs to the 4th inst. They are, as usual, barren of interesting in. telligence. Baron CaInfrIPENT, Austrian Minister to the Helvetic Confederation, arrived on the iSth ult. at Schaffhausen, from whence he continued his route for Fribourg. The Troops of the Helvetic Republic are to ton_ sist of 15,000 men, to be placed at the disPosal of the Diet. The ancient prohibitory Laws against the Jews, have been renewed in Switzerland, The College of Censors of Books has also been reestablished, and the Magistrates have restim,ett.their ancient costume. As might be expeded, every exertion is making by the Helvetic Magistrates, under the controul of France, to prevent the importation of English mer. chandize. The storm °Abe 28th ult. appears to have ex. tended over great part of France, and to have done considerable damage. Letters from Genoa report, that the Fever at Malaga was merely the putrid fever common to Holland and Zealand. The transit of cannon, muskets, and pistols, throl , gh the Batavian Republic, has been pro. hibited. 'The French Funds were on the zd at sr . To. THIS morning arrived a Lisbon Mail, brought to Falmouth by the Primce of Wales Packet, in four days from Lisbon. We do not learn that this Mail brings any particular intelligence. No apprehen sions were entertained at Lisbon of ;n immediate rupture with this Country, though the following Article, which appears in a Cornwall Paper of Sa. turday last, would lead us to suppose that at Gibraltar they have getOd intelligence of the hostile disposition both of Spain and Portugal. . -• • " The Betsey, Captain Marston, arrived - it' Falmouth, left Gibraltar on the 24th December, in company with the Gibraltar, Criegie ; Essex, Betts; Elizabeth, Mainwaring; Success, Warwick; Thetis, Donovan; Echo, Williams; and Marquis of Kildare, Walters, under convoy of the Amphion-Frigate, for Lisbon. On the 26th Sir It nA a* S"rRACHAN, in the Donegal, brought the Fleet to,• and in formed them that he had received a letter frOm His Excel lency the Governor of - Gibraltar, by the Medusa Frigate, saying that a war with Spain and Portugal was inevitable; and that he gipedcd it would take place immediately : that in consequence ; , the. Frigate could not proceed to Lisbon with them, lest she should be detained ; but tlit she shoui4 take them back to Gibraltar; The Echo and Marquis of Kildare accordingly returned to Gibraltar; and the remainder came on dirc4l,ior- England, and are gone up Cliannel.', Newitork Papers to the 15th alt, have been received, by which we have some intelligence re speeting Litstots' Squadron. The Captain of a Vessel arrived at Philadelphia, in 92 days, from the Isle of France, had stated, that some days previous to the time of his sailing, two French Ships of the Line, and Six or Seven Frigates, arrived at the Isle of France, which it was said came from France with a body of TreoPs to take possession Of Pondicherry, but that the British had refused to surrender it. After lying in the Road of Pondicherry for some time waiting for orders„ theStinadron, according to the Captain's statement, received Dispatches from the Governor of the Mauritius, in consequenee of which they cut their cables and returned to the Lie of France, where they landed two thowiand French Troops, and were on the loth of September waiting for further orders from France. 'lf 'hie account is to be credited, the report of the capture of Litqo is' Squadron by Admiral RAINI ER must be destitute of foundation. In corroboration of tl c abovementioned statement, the Captain of an ot h er Vessel Arrived at ,had stated that whilst the Sq..l4Citula alluled to was lying at Pondicherry, the Admiral received a dispatch from the Governor of the Isle of France, announcing the arrival of a Corvette from France, with orders that if they had riot already taken possession of Pondicherry they were to quit the place immediately, and make the best of their way to the Mauritius. A Dublin Mail of the 12th arrived this morning. Its contents will be found under the Dublin Head. Yesterday motning the RoYAL FAtatLy attended divine servicv v atSt. Georges Chapel, and heard an excellent sennon.by WILSON, from the gth chapter of Proverbs, and iith verse, 1, If thou be wise, thou shalt be wise for thyself." After the Drawing room on Wednesday, in cele bration of HER MAJESTY'S birth-day, HER MA. JESTY will have a numerous party at Buckingham.. house, and there will be a concert. There will be a Drawing Room at James's on Wednesday next, when HER MA J ESTY'S Birth.day will be kept. THE MAJESTIES honour Covent Garden Theatre with their presence this evening. On Saturday the weather proving very favour able, His MAJESTY left Windsor Lodge soon after breakfast, attended by Llrti WALsINGHAM, Gen. SPENCER, and Col. DEsa ROW, to enjoy the sports of the field. The Royal l'arty arrived at Wood's End about half past ten o'clock, where the Earl of SAIiDW ICH, and a numerous (rid of Sportsmen, were waiting the arrival of His MAJESTY. On His 'MAJESTY'S arrival, the deer was turned out of the cart for the day's diversion. At starting :the deer took his course with great speed across the heath, leaving the camp ground to the left, making a short double to the right, through Mr. GUEST'S inclosures, by North.row, taking to the left, and crossed the Winkfield-road, and made through the inclosures, leaving Mr. BArsoN's grounds, and the new. Lodge to the left, and through the woods to wards. Oz.kley Green, leaving St. Leonard's Hill to the right, and through the .inclosures by Clewer Green, where he ran with,great swiftness across the Spittle road, and :leaped dyer the paling near Fle. nosh farm,, taking th roug h the meadows where he leaped over the paling into, , the Great Park, anti got into a herd of deer, but was in a short time got out, and the Chace was renewed across the Park towards Bagshot, where he made a double to the right, leav, ing Cumberland Lodge to the left towards Sand Pit Gate, making a double to the left back again, ing Cumberland Lodge to the right, and got into a farmyard, near the Gre at Lodge, wh e re he A ppe ar ed q u iet and safe from his pursuers ; the hounds and Sportsmen coming up in a short time after, he set off again, and went round the farm house and into the yard. .again, where he was taken after a rim of two hours and a half. Great sport was afforded during this hunt. We understand that Message was received this Morning at Covent Garden Theatre, acquaint ing the Man R agers th at t h e —OYAL FAMILy would TM honour the Theatre this evening with their pie senee. His MAJESTY has been pleased to accept the offer of the Marquis of BUCKINGHAM, to raise four Compani es at Gosfield, Halsted, Hedingham, and Weathersfield ; and to incorpo rat e th e s ame with the three established Companies at Bucking and and with the Independent C om p an i e s at FBiancinh t i r n e g e eld, Sati ng , and kiedfield, un d er t he .ap r pellation of the Hincktord Heindred Volunteers. On Saturday upwards of !ODD 'men of the 3oth and other Regiments, embark.ed at Blisworth, Northamptonshire, for Ireland i the weather was ng o a f t o t l h d e al C e a b n y al, the th ß ey eawoet extremely severe, and much annoyed ,them. On a e mTbahrek quantityi Royal Meath Mili t i a h ave volunteered their re nf te th fr e es i l i ' a e r d is! " ;. it h service to any part of Grea-t Britain or Ireland. We are concerned to state, that that able and . gallant Officer, a Sir SY DNEY S MITH, has met with serious accident, from a sword that was so disposed • in his cabin . as to enter his back, nor was it ascer tained, when 'our accotmt left his Ship, whether it would not be attended' With alarming consequences. Accounts have been received from Admiral Sir JAMES SAUMAREZ, announcing the capture of a considerable number' of the enemy's vessels by the squadron under his command on the Jersey station. The number- of the vessels taken is note precisely known, but we understand they exceed twenty, and are chiefly coasters. • Letters from Stock/Fib:7 of the 4.01 state, that the Russian Army in LivoNia had been considerably rein - forced, and it was generally understood that it was assembling, for the purpose of 'resisting any .further •encroaelments of France in Ger. many This is very probable,. and it likewise appears from the latest accounts we have from Ger_ many, That - BoNstrARTE, aware of this disposition of 4uSsia, is endeavouring by. every possible means . to excite Bavaria to ails of hostility against Au. stria, with the hope, if he succeeds in lighting up the flames pf War in that quarter, that Russia will take pail with Bavaria against the Court of Vienna. This seems to be very much the policy of the FIRST CONSUL, for we no sooner hear of Bavaria apologizing for one aggression against the Hoyse of Austria, than she commits ano_ then, by taking possession of some Ecclesiastical Distrias to which she had no claim. That she Would do this without the secret instigation and a promise of support from France is extremely im. probable, whilst it .4:svell known that the ELECTOR is entirely ,cootroled. 4)y . French influence. There is great reason to _hope, however, from the synth. toms 'of friendly iniprcourse lately displayed be tween-the Courts of Petersburgh and Vienna, and the hostile disposition of the thriller towards France, that BONAPARTE will be unable to succeed, in the grand objed of his machinations, and that, by causing a general conflagration in Europe, he will iimbelf perish in the flames. It- is again stated in letters from Peurshurgh, that a Russian Squadron was fitring out in the Black Sea with all possible expedition in otdier to convey a number of Troops to the Mediterranean. Arrange ments. were, it is stated, making at Corfu foi their .reception, and for supplying diem with the necessary provisions and stores. NAVAL NEWS. POR T SMOUTH, JAN.

On Saturday arrived at Philadelphia the ship Fanny, Captain LAKE, in ninety-two days from the Isle of France. Capt. L. infamy, that they had not heard of the war between England and France at the time 'of his - sailing. Two FrenCh ships of the line, and six or seven frigates, arrived thete some days before he sailed, which, it was came from Frao,ce, with a body of troops, to take: possession of Pondicherry agreeable to thee. Treaty of, :miens; but on their arrival, the lititish retubed to give them possession: that, after lying in the Road some time waiting orders, they re ceived dispatches frona the Governor of the Maori.. tins, on which they cut their cables, and returnee , to the Isle of France, Where they landed two thoti , . sand French troops, and were, an the roth of Sep tember, waiting further orders from France. This account is corrobor,ated by Captain filAttTortr of the ship John, arrived at Salem. He states the squadron to comprise the illatrigo, of Eo guns, and. ,/ five frigates; and adds, that while lying at p0nd . ,..,i" cherry, the Admiral received a '-- At Spatub,_ .Governor of the Isle of France, announcing 1 114 arrival of a corvette from France, with orders,'that if they had not already taken possession of Pondi" cherry, to quit the place immediately, and to miii‘ 4 the best of their way to the Delaurititts.
