On the' 9th Captain SEIERRIFF,, in .the Coigar, pf 18 guns; arrived with th Trarisports off Falmouth, and in the course of the ia ruct day the Artie/it, C:t pt.' IL poNELY, arrived.

The Trairsports with - the 45th and 05th. Regiments on board, remain at Falmouth. It is expected that they will sail with General CRAUFURD.

After these interviews a Cabinet Council was held on that day at two o'clock.. The same im portant business is understood. to have been the oc casion of another Cabinet Council held yesterday.

RETURN O'F LORD LAUDERDALE YESTEUDAY afternoon, about three o'clock, the Clyde Frigate, having Lord LAUDERDALE on board, arrived in the Downs. His Lordship immediately landed under a salute of 15 guns • from the Clyde, and very soon after set off for London : he slept at Canterbury last night, - and arrived in town this forenoon. When ',Ord LAUDERDALE came on shore he was surrounded by a great number' of -the in . habitants of Deal, who testified their joy on the rupture, 'of the Negotiation: Sevetal very, a'cdiurd reports were circulated on Saturday respeEting Ltird.

A Cabinet Council was sumrtioned , to meet at two o'clock to-day, in consequence of the . arrival-Of his Lordship: • tiation. IT gives us - 'the oscsincere pleasure to find that the e:iperiment nyade on Wednesday . liist, in the Harbour of Boelogne, , with the new invented Rockets, succeeded completely. The Rockets ern,,, ployed upon- this occasion - were - invented abOnta a , year ago, by 'COI. CONGEEVE, and were to , have been used by Sir SIDNEY, SMITH, in his intended' attack upon the. Flotilla at the latter end of last au-, tumn ; but our Readers-will recollect that- the attack was prevented by a very heavy gale Of wind which came - on just as the different VesFels were . about to take their stations. Since that time. a considerab!e improvement has taken place in the constru&ion of those liockets, or, as they , are sometimes called, ' Pyrotechnic Arrows. As . soon as •it was dark on Wednesday evening, twenty-four Boats,. each hay ing,on board a 'number of thOse Rockets,' stood into the Harbour of Boulogne (unperceived by the Ene my, who were not in expeaation of an attack), and having taken their stations, commenced a general-. diseharge of the Rockets. The surprize add alarm of the &et:ly, in consequence . of this unexpeEted attack, must have beeni very great indeed ; for al though our Boats continued on their station, coati-. Dually throwing the Rockets, for upwards of half an hour, not a shot was fired' frOM any of the French . . Batteries ; at length they recovered from their con •sternation, and opened .a tremendons,fire ; but our Boats had by that time got far beyond the rangq. of their shot, and consequently did not sustain the slightest damage. The fire, however, from 'the, French Batteries was kept up, without intermission, until five o'clock on Thursday morning. - Jt is impds sible, of course, to speak with any degree of preci.:•• sion with respe& to the damage done to the Enemy,. but there is some reason to apprehend that the Boats took their Station rather nearer to . the shore than was intended,''and the Reckets being discharged at the elevation which was calculated for a greater dis tance, the consequence was that they went over the Inner. Harbour and fell on the Town, where they must have done considerable mischief, as several conflagrations were seen. These Pyrotechnic Arrows will fly nearly two miles and a half, and are cap able of communi- piing their fire for nearly ten minutes after hav ing reached their point. They are prodigionsly\ large, and have an iron-pointed socket at the end, which sticks in whatever it may be aimed at; Thl3 socket has likewise a tube, for the purpose of ,con 'billing the inflammable matter, with six holes, through which it issue in a state of liquefac tion. The stick attached to the kocket is. Dearly twenty feet long. One hundred of these might te discharged,. within the space of a minute, from each Vessel ; but we are informed 'only two were fi s red from each Boat, at the same time. The rockets ! 'Sre so construaed as to instantane ously em 4 on their adhesion to any part of the vessel,-a liquid throe. The ingrediefits of this de stru&ive composition are said to, be of so powerful and inflammable a nature as almost to defy the counteraamg effea of 'water, which for some time seems rather to increase than extinguish the violence cif its fury. _ _ Its, proof of their phosphoric properties, a few of them were last year t,brown •at Dover, by way of oxperiment, from Archlitre to the Western HeiglAs,, and immediately set on fire a .stubble field, in which they chanced to fall, near the cele brated Qtff-of Shaltspeare.

Previous to the action there was large quantity of money landed from the Frigate, reported to be the property of the King ; but the English tobk with the Ship half a million of dal, lars. It is reported that. the Commander of the Spanish Frigate lost his life in the anion the number of others is; not mentioned, but supposed c.msiderable, from the closeness of the action and heavy , fire. On the 2,4 th I fell in, with three Ships. a little to the northward of the Double-headed Shot Keys : one. of them appearing much disabled,. another' had her ,in tow, standing to northward through the Florida Gulp!). These I suppose to be the. three afore-mentioned Vessels, It must be observed, that at the time of the anion there was an eighty-gun Ship then in the Harbour ; but unfortunately her two top-masts_were down, and could not .be 'get ready until the day after the action." A Ship called the Rose in '4(une was lost on the (24th Of AUguSt, off NeW York. She had on board between forty and fifty persons, mostly passengers ; and the fate of some them will excite commi seration. General MA cPUERSON and a young Lady, his daughter, were washed overboard, wden the General, being an . excellent swimmer, made the quarter railing, the Ship being on her beam 'ends ; but, pefeeivincr'his daughter sinking, he plunged in again after her,, and succeeded in bringing her to the Wreck. He was, however, washed oft a second time, and his strength 'being 'eXhausted, 'he was drowned. Mr. /100T11, another Passenger,' had the p rese nce mind. to make his way Through the water to the after-Cabin, in which were his wife and son, to pushup the dead light, force.them both into the water, and jump in, after them : but both the, woman and child were drowned. The vessel was preserved from sinking by hailing on board fifty bales of cotton ; and the next day twenty-seven persons were rescued, after remaining lashed to' the wreck a day and a night. The number of persons, drowned amounted to twenty one. The American Papers state, that the persons who bore commissions in :MIRANDA'S Army, and were lately taken by the Spaniards, were all hting and-the crews of the Vessels condemned to perpetual imprisonment in the Mines; some ac counts say . for ten years only. The heads of the Of ficers were afterwards exposed on poles in the, town. There were amongst them several young men of the most r6pe6tOle families in New York and Phi--
