NAVAL INTELLIGENCE.

PORTSMOUTH, nrc. 6.
The datrora frigate, Captain Malbon, arrived at
St. Helen's this afternoon from Lisbon.
The Rai:one:llr, of 61. guns, Captain Barton, came
half way into the harbour this morning, when an
order from the Port Admiral sent her back to Spit-
head again, where her defeat are to be repaired.
This sliip, by the indefittigable exertions of her of-
ficers, WAS kept seven nioaths at sea ~ff the Texel
(a period rarely known) ; and on her arrival was in
so had a state with respen to sails and rigging. as
to have scarcely sufficient to bring her to an an-
chorage. It is also worthy of remark, that from
her being continually at anchor blockading, muscles
have adhered to her copper in such numbers, as
scarcely to have left any of it visible.
