The astonishing progress of the French arms has
once more brought the theatre of war close to our
frontiers. The army of Marshal Augerean passed
the Rhine at Huninguen the 24th, and advanced
along the banks of the Lake of Colstance, to pre-
vent the jonelion of the Austrian army of the Tyrol
with that of Italy. The head-I:wailers of the Hel-
vetic army is, at present, at St. Gall. Gantral
Watteville left this place on the 22d.
IL•TISION, OCT. 22.
The Diet is still unoccupied. No deliberation
of any imperanee can be expelled in the present
circumstances. The Austrian Ministers have, in a
circular Note, communicated to all the Envoys
here, the answer of their Court to the exposition
of the Bavarian complaints. In the same manner,
the Minister of Wurtemburg has presented a justi-
fication of the proceedings of his Court. A simi-
lar representation is exported from Baden. The
Russians have not yet crossed the Inn ; they will
there experience a great disappointment. Instead of
the powerful Austrian army they espe2ed w join,
they will :carrel}- lad a wreck of it. They were in
hopes, after so long a march, to enjoy some rest in
Bavaria; and they ale now, though without cavalry
or artilkrv, upon the point of being attacked by the
French. It was yesterday said, that they would re-
treat to Bohemia. No one at Vienna can compre-
bend how the 'French have been allowed to advance
so far, without a strong opposition haling been made
to them. When the first advantages of the French
were known there, nobody eat: the decisive
events which afterwards took It is stated,
that the Archduke Charles has received orders to
detach 20 or 13,000 men more to the support of the
airy in Germany.

Sts,—Being off Ferrol, working to the West-
ward, with the wind Westerly, on the evening of
the QJ, we observed a frigate in the N. W. making
signals ; made all sail to join her before night, and
followed by the ships named in the margin •, we
came up with her at eleven at night ; and at the
moment she joined us, we saw sir large ships near
us. Capt. Bakes informed me he had been chaceJ
by the Rochfort squadron, then close to Leeward
of ns. We were delighted. I desired him to tsll
the Captains of the ships of the line astern to follow
me, as I meant to engage them diteAly ; and im-
mediately burs away in the Czsar for the purpose,
making all the signals I could, to indicate our move-
ments to our ships ; the moon enabled us to see the
enemy bear away in a line Ahre sat, clusely formed ;
but we lost sight of them when it set. and I was
obliged to reduce our sails, the Hero, Courageux,
and .lEolus b-ing the only ships we could see. We
continued steering to the E.N.E. all night, and in
the morning obsTrved the Santa Margaritta near us;
at nine we discovered the enemy of four sail of the
line in the N.E. under all sail. We had also every
thing set, and cams► up with them fast ; in the even-
ing we observed three sail astern ; and the Phenix
spoke me at bight. I found that aetive officer,
Capt. Baker, had delivered my orders, and I sent
him pt to assist the Santa Margarita in leading us up
to the enemy. At daylight we were near them, and
the Santa Margarita had begun in a very gallant

A little before noon, the French finding an action
unavoidable, began to take in their small sails, and
Puns in a Ike, bearing on the starboard tack ; we
did the same ; and I communicated my intentions
by hailing to the Captains, a that I should attack
the centre and rear," and at noon began the battle ;
in a short time the van ship of the enemy tacked,
which almost dire.* made the action close and ge-
neral ; the Namur joined soon after we tacked,
which we did as soon as we could get the ships
round, and I direeted her, by signal, to engage the
van ; at half-past three the action ceased, the enemy
having fought to admiration, and not surrenderiug
till their ships were unmanageable. I have re-
turned thanks to the Captains of the ships of the
line and the frigates, and they speak in high terms
of approbation ,)f their respective officers and ships'
companies. If any thing could add to the gr,od
opinion I had already formed of the officers and
crew of the Ce.ar, it is their gallant conduft in
this day's battle. The enemy have suffered much,
but our ships not more Juan is to be expeCted on

We announced, yesterday, the arrival of Lord
Wit.t.t AM Firzaoy, with the gratefnl intelligence
of the capture, by Rear-Admiral Sir RICHARD
Svaacisam, of four French ships of the line, part
of the combined fleets of France and Spain, which
survived the dreadful battle of Trafalgar. The
substance of our account was true ; but there
were some errors in the detail, which will be found
correelecl in The Litt mordmary, Gazette, of :yester-
day morning, which we now republish for the sake
of our Readers who did not see our secoms !COITION

This achievement is valuable in a ten-fold degree,
as following so fast upon the heels of the glorious

A similar account was also sent from the Admi-
ralty to Li.° VD's.

At ten o'clock, yesterday morning, the Park and
Tower guns were fired, and the news becoming
generally known, produce) a great sensation.—lt
was a sensation of pure and unmixed joy.—No
N; L.su it'll to mingle our smiles with tears, to
plant sorrow in our hearts, while joy beamed upon
th.• connrenalice, and mike the nilhtly flam!w4ux
look like torches ;round the grave of the
th in the joyful illuminations of life and vic-
t . The captured ships are, the Fory,4l/41e,

guns, Capt. Ballot:6Es ; ,Vaat Wow, of 4 guns,
Capt. VILLEOREY ; and the Doguay Trois; i, Capt.
Touve Lai.. The British line will he found, on
reference to Me Neraordinary Gazette, to have
been precisely equal in number of ships and guns.
Seldom has it happened, that two squadrons
have met upon such equal terms. Our inge-
nuous Admiral, who knows bow to value merit
even in a foe, admits that the I, French fought
to admiration, and did not surrender until their
ships became unmanageable." What hope can Bo-
NAPARTZ now entertain of being able to dispute
with as the empire of the seas ? It was not a vic-
tory over cowardice, want of skill, or an inferior
force. The squadrons were fairly matched ; but the
British flag, accustomed to triumph under every
difficulty and disadvantage, could not fail to succeed
when upon equal terms with the foe. It was with
some surprise Sir R. SiIIACNAN discovered that his
prizes were not the Rochfort squadron, but part of
thewreck of the combined fleet, that escaped destruc-
tion off Trafalgar. It will be recolleled, that, on the
21st of o.2ober, five sail of the enemy attempted to
make their escape, one of which was cut off, and
the others stood to the Southward.—lt is supposed
that they changed their course to the Northward,
and were the identical ships taken by Sir R.
Svaacitan. When first descried, however, off Ferrol,
the squadron consisted of 6, and where they picked up
the other 2, which disappeared in the course of the
night,we can form no conjeZture. They were probably
two damaged ships, that were not in a fighting con-
dition. As Sir RICM•RD STILACHAN lost sight of
the &flans, of 74 guns, she probably went in pur-
suit of them. The acgiioy Troitils and &Olen were
totally dismasted. The FornoiLlabte and Mont Wane,
had only their foremasts standing. They were off
the Lizard at five o'clock on Thursday morning.
On Friday, they they were seen again by the Aldus,
but, as the wind was faint, they made but little way.
A letter from Plymouth, written at a late hour on
Saturday, adds, that they were then coming into port.
No accurate returns of killed and wounded having
been received, The Gazette states, generally, that
the enemy suffered much. Souse accounts say,
that the Mon* Blame and Scipio?, had arrived off
Falmouth, and that they had 270 killed and wound-
ed. Admiral Dum•ploi a is said to be dangerously
wounded. On board the DIIIIVIt/ Trolsin, the Cap-
tain was killed, and the second in command wound-
ed. Our lass consisted of 24 killed, and 111
wounded. Among the latter are, one Lieutenant,
and a Boatswain. We had not one officer killed.

The ;Folios SAW the Rl:wills* with a dismasted
ship in tow, in the Channel. The Randier is corns
from the West Indies.

In the course of the morning, Captain BA-.
Ica, of the Nano:, arrived in town ; and, as
the firing of guns took place about the same
time, it was reported, that he had brought an
account of another victory. The firing, however,
was found to have proceeded from the sea fea-
cibles exercising upon the river; and the dis-
patches brought by the Phrnis were said to be only
duplicates of those brought by Lord WILLIAM
FITZIWY. L'Atgle frigate, Capt. Wentz, also
arrived a: Plymouth, on Saturday, from the Channel
fleet, and a report that she had brought an account
of the capture of the Rochfort squadron, by Admi-
ral Sr :a t. ilia, became very prevalent, but we could

net ti ace it to any authentic source. O. tiers

bodies of Lord Netsorr, Captains Dort. and CoostE;
also the captured Admirals, with their flags. By
this conveyance we may expe3 further accounts
from Admiral, now Lord, COLLINCWOOD.

We have received New York Pa?ers to the tth
last, at which date the Yellow Fever continued to
rage in that city with great malignity. The num-

was 13, and 9 deaths; on the 23, 13 new cases,
and 8 deaths ; and, on the 3d, 23 new cases, sod
14 deaths. It appears, therefore. that the violence
of the fever was unfortunateiy increasing. A great
timber of the inhabitants had removed lions the

place at Boston.

THEATRES.

V- L ANC.
Last night, after the Comedy of A Prior Clam,
a new Meln-Dramatic Piece, in one an, was pro-
duced, for the purpose of commemorating tl:e vic-
tory and death of Lord Viscount NE‘sus. By the
excellence of the language, and the sweetness of the
music, the Managers hive proved that they have
not been backward in their endeavours to please the
public on this most feroarite topic. The Over-
ture, which is expressive of the noisy sounds of bat-
tle, the joyful sounds of vinnry, and the sorrowful
sounds of death, concludes with Rile Britannia, and
was much applauded. The curtain rising, presents a
view of the sea, and a fleet at anchor. A boat
rows to shore, from which Mr. Eixisrov and Mr.
BllAttAnt, in the charainers of naval officers, ac-
companied by several sailors, land. fame is seen
descending in a cloud ; and, after an intrndunory
speech by Mr. ELLisi (v., expressive of their hav-
ing brought the news of the viicb.ry, and death of
Nation, Mr. Ba sings a new song in praise
of his memory, whiea was rapturously (neared.
Several British soldiers and la-hes 'hen make their
entre, and are informed by Mr. El. LISTO•4 of the
vinory gained, of the loss suss tined, and of the
hopes they must eutertab;, at the express desire of
Net.son. for the brave Admiral Cut.i.irrowoon.
The Dialogue is chiefly i t verse. highly finished,
and expressive of every thing which British hearts
can feel on such an ocica;ina.--Atter a chorus sung
by Mr. BRAU AK, Mrs. Bissio, and the rest of the
Company, Rule Bri,affifa, is played, and a trans-
parency of Lord NaLsosi rises oat ul the sea, sup-
ported by Angels. The whole company then
come forward, and Rut. Rafaaffia is sung with a
full chorus. An addition.il verse is sung by Mi.
BnAaAat,which received the most unbounded ap-
plause ; it concludes with—
Ruts lintamiss, rule ,re .es, brave,
Wltil laurels str..w vo.,r
The House was crowded in every part, and the
little Piece went off with the greatest rant.

dition against Boti'ette, which were received with
the most enthusiastic appnhatiln, and loudly ea-
t-in-ed. The lively Aftet-Piece of The A Geiniht
Hour, went off with its usual sueress.

A gentleman of dist:aftion, whose intelligence
from India, is derived from the most authentic
sourcii.s, say's:
The general tenor of the intelligence which I
have received is favourable. The armies were in
cantonments in the middle of May. The Compa-
ny's territories, and those of her allies. are in the ut-
most tranquilli y, and no enemy is in the field.
Hiti.E. A a WAS alive, and at large, but he had no force;
and, you may take my word fur it, that neither he,
nor any other power, can make any impression upon
the Company, or their allies ; and that. be is not
likely to be able to stir up any of the n ttiva powers
to take part in his cause. Mr. JUNI:Iss was a.:ting
as British Merchant in the camp of 1.1 K. Sc i NDI A ;
and Lieutenant-Colonel M A acoo.l was on his road,
with MA LUAIi. to take upon himself the duties of
that situation."
Marquis Ws t.t.ost. rr has made preparations for
his departure from India. His Lordship WAS to
have embarked in the month of February last, on
board the Se. F,orenzo higate ; the state of affairs in
the north of Iffindostan, however, induced his Lord-
ship to delay his departure, and the .St. Fierenzo left
Calcutta, giving convoy to the homeward-bound
fleet in the end of March last. When the Ttigra-
youth left the Hoogly river, it was understood, that
the Hews fngate, Capt. Coceneett, was under or-
ders to accommodate the Noble Marquis, and that
his Lordship would embark in the month of August,
