MADRAS, FEBRUARY 6.—.0n Thursday last ar ved‘the Ship General 1 elle4ey, Clptain - J. BURN, prom Rangoon, bnt last from Penang. We have been favoured with ; the following ex traa froin Capt. Binitt.'s . log-book " Ship General W,llesley, at Sea, 23d jan, ;806, ' 'the Liule And eman bearutg.N. b. fr..,distant 12 Leagues. - '• - ff At day-light saw a boat, with tnatsail hoisted, Wering about S. W.: bore up to'her, and hove to; found ,the 'boat or vessel full of people, who appear= d•nearly - expiring : took all the.people on board, of the to.llowing description; a Malabar man (native ct -- Aladras), a Chinaman, and fifteen Birinahs, all of thorn in - a very exhausted . and Miserable 'condi tion,. from hunger and.fatigoe.. The accopuLthey gave_of theinSelyes is as- follows they say that they left Rangoon, _about two months ago, bound for Martaban ; but, from bad weather, and ignorance of navigation, the 'vessel had been wrecked on an island, the name of Situation of ',which they know not, but which we imagine to' have' been the Great • Andannan. “ So Stion as they got on shore the natives, attacked them with' bows and arrows, and killed two people, a Chinarnan and a Birmah ; the .re mainder escaped to a small island adjacent, where, from the remains Of their vessel, they constinded the boa(in which We found them. ' . " They remained on the island; about 20 days, during whioli.tiMe they were freiiiieritly attaCked by the natives, whom they dect-ibe as heing negrOeS, With woolly,heads, andTperfeetly nked. During the above period, : and till we fortunately fell in with them, they bad subsisted•entirely on' the bark of trees. and a very few mia s els. They left.the island about five days ago; and ignOrantly supposed; _that by keeping before the wind they. sVould fetch the coast' of 'Arracan, . though, in faet, they.lifere going t 1 contrary direct . ; And must 'all have tni , iierably perished in the cottr a± , fei.v days,, having only a tow pieces of green .bArk, and very tittle 'Miter left. Upon ex . -: 4:rnji .n tine property they ha 4 saved, we. found a colitainin ,, 44 and a half Spanish dollars, and LONDON, vRTD4Y; JULY 25; 1806'i Tuts morning, at one eclock, a Russian Messen» ger arrived in Town with Dispatches from M. D'Ou, ERIL, at Varis, to t'le Russian Ambassador here. The substance of the Dispatches was immediately, communicated ;to. ; His Majesty's Ministers, and a Cabinet' Council was summoned this day at one o'Clock to take thenljnto consideration. The con tents of these Dispatches ofcourse have not transpired; but we have reason to believe that they do not con firm the report which was circulated yesterday, Ofa separate Peace having been concluded between Rus sia and . France.—Lord servant, who . arrived in town with Dispatches on Tuesday morn ing, was ordered to hold himself in readiness to re turn this day. WE received last night Paris Papers .to.the 17th, ; and Dutch to the £'l st. instant. If we are to forM a judgment from the language used in the French. Pa pers, there is very little disposition on the part of the, French Government to conciliate either Great Britain Orltussia, notwithstanding theNegotiationsforPeace. The Moniteur containi.a severe attack upon RuSsia, , . for: having, as it. is stated, encouraged the revolt of the Servians .against. the Porte. It is true this attath. does , not appear as an official article,' but in the shape of a letter from Constantinople ; .but thiS artifice has been so often resorted .to in the, Moniteur, that it cannot now impose upon any one. The French.. Papers have also taken an op-' portunity of throwing-out insinuations against this Country, from a circumstance which might have been expeaedto have excited sentiments of a very different kind... It is statedthat an English Flag of Truce appeared before Calais on the loth of this month, and repeated .the assurances' before given, that French Fishing-boats Would not meet any ob struelion from the'English provided they did not pass the prescribed limits. 'lnstead of expressing_ any gratitude for - this indulgence, the French Papers state, that no reliance can be placed upon these assurances,, and that it is probable that curiosity alone 10 to the visit of the Flag of Truce .to the French Coast.: At the 'commencement of the present War ' permission was granted by the British Government to the French Fisning-boats to 'fish as usual, and that indulgenCe would not have been taken from them if it had' riot been most grossly abused, It is • well known .ttift the French Fishingboats on the Coast of Normandy are very large, and - many of them carry from twenty to thirty men.. Instead, how ever, of employing themselves in fishing, whenever an ,opportunity offered they boarded and captufed English Merchantmen, and the 'British GoVern ment was therefore compelled ,to Withdraw the 'int. dulgence which they had granted. • • The Siege of Gaeta, still continues, but the French Papers anticipate the speedy capture of the place,_as the 13esiegers.have pushed their last parallel within 160 paces.ofthe . Garrison ; but as, according to, their own 'accounts, the Besieged has not fired upon them, it is natural to conclude, that the Prince of HESSE . PHILIPSTHAL is prepared for an assault, that he will spring the mines that are beneath their works, or inundate them, - which is perfealy practicable. . . . ' . . " The' report communicated by the Captain of the, American .Ship Hope to the .Constance Frigate last • • Week, of a Treaty laving been concluded between , France and the Torte, inconsequence of which the former was to have PermisSion 'to march her Troops through Turkey to Egypt, 'turns out, as we expea ed, to be unfounded—at least there is no such.artiCle in the Moniteur. THE business of the Lottery was not settled this day, as 4Peeted. ,Lord GRENVILLE met the Gen tlemen who were to - . bid for it, according to"ap pointment, this morning, at the Treasury.,-- Tristead of taking the next Lottery, singly, they otfered to bid for the Three together. As this was a new proposition, GEOVILLE deem-' ed it proper, to take' time fur the consideration of it, and the' meeting was therefore adjourned 'till twelve o'clock on Monday. Yesterday a Cabinet Council was held at Mr. Fox's" Office, in Downing-street, at which all tie Cabine , , Ministers, except Mr. Fox and Lord EL. : LENBOROUGH, were present. It is supposed that the answer to the last Dispatches from France were taken, into consicler4wp. 111,11 , AL NEWS,.

Two Frigates, ,, ' the Phoebe and Thames have . already sailed in quest of them. The Te.tel Guirdship, of .64 guns, is preparing to • follow.-4- We hope this intelligence will prove untrue." • Since writing the above, .we have received the following intelligence : , A letter has been 'received from a Gentlerna'n, wbo was on board.the Sims, Letter of Marque, of Leith, which states the capture of that VeSsel by. the Dutch. The men were landed at Aberdeen, at)d 'the Ship blown up. .It further states, that 16 or 17 North British Whalers have fallen into their hands. The Teel will sail this afternoon; she is taking on board provisions and water. The Galloway Militia have volunteered their services to at as Marines on bOard the Texel, and.the Sea Fencibles are all aka.. out." It is stated in some_ of the Morning. Papers* that the Match between. Pavilion .and Sancho. was declared off, and that . Mr. MELLISH had paid forfeit, as .his horse was not in a condition to run. We lrave, however, this morning received a letter from Brighton, which States, that the race did take place, and that Sancho broke down within a:short distance of the winning post, when there was every probability of his gaining the raCe.

Several loyal and patriotic toasts were drank, and the evening was spent in the most; agreeable manner. BONAPARTE is likely to afford his Holiness the ropE a full opportunity of attesting the sincerity of Iris faith, and the meek submission of his mind, by the entire resignation of all wordly grandeur.

VIENNA, JULY 9.—The attention of the politi cians is now fixed on - the towns of Cat aro and Bran nan. As all adirices relative to these two places are seized with the utmost avidity, it is pot surprising that people should be deceived by false intelligence what is certain is, that the French are, making pro parations ,to evacuate Btannau, but we as yet havc received no official account of the surrender of Ca taro.

The animosity between ; the latter and the Bosniaks daily increases. The Bos niaks have talieti. up 'arms. Their - principal place of rendezvous is Kossove, on the Right Bank of the Drina, near Ustrige, on the main road to Belgrade. The two Tartars who brought an account of this in surrealon to Tresnick were murdered on their return.
