The situation . of Gaeta • is still the mile. The Prince of HEssE FiIILIPSTITAL keeps up an unintFri rtip . : - OFindsterrible fire on the works of the besiegers; who cau curry them 'op but vety . owly, and by their own account will not be. able to attempt any thing against the Fortress before, the 'end of July. Last week it was remarked that Negotiations were cariying on with the Government of Naples, but the subjc(:.;i of them is unknOwni On Mondayand , - Tuesdayno firs was niade from the fortress ; but since then it has been renewed and.kept up without interruption.- Ti b French assert that in July they will storm tbitortress with 30,000 men, and they will then Vtcoably. take ii.;.,bdt it will cost them a great 'eq'itt.4hter of their Troops. Whether they will aCtually tatie this sacrifice, in order to , obtain possession of a fortress which' can be of little use Co them (asit I'olll always be in the power of the English to lay it . iti .ruins from the sea-side in half an hour), time it shew.

With respeEt to the destination of the for mer, we have some reason, to believe that its obje& is to support the Expedition lately undertaken by-Sir HOME POPHAM bgai tisf Buenos Ayres. That .ex pedition; as far as we can learn, was the result of his. own enterprizing charaaer, and not the consequence of orders from this Country., The _.tnesure, how ever, is very promising, and its success would, be highly important to this Country; and therefore Government, we presume; think it proper to send . , a powerful reinforcement. • • Reports have been circulated of a serious conflia having taken place hi Ireland, between , a body of the Getman Troops and . sorne . of the Militia in Ire land. We are not able positively to contradict the fad, but. we have received petters and Papers from Dublin this 'morning •which ,do not state any such event to -Wye takn. place. • According to, the accounts 'of private., letters, brought by -the List.
