The °goal Paper of this day contains, further,
a Report from the Nlinister of Marine, Decres, to
Ifis Majesty, whence it appears that Hear-Admiral
illaninez:, in coneeriueme of His Majesty's com-
mand, sailed from prest nu the Skit of February,
with eight ships of the hoe cud two frigates, in or-
der to attack the enemy, who was blockading the
harbours of L'Orieut and Isled'Atx, with two squa-
drons, cossiatiog each of low rail of the line, mid_
some frigates; and to relive t !mac ha;bouta from
t it blockade. On the evening of the same clay, the
Year-Admiral appeared off L thieut, whence three
frAateto were to juju Into ; hat these could not get

at length compelled him to retreat.
In the meanwhile the Rear-Admiral: porsoed

of Fehniary, where, however, he did not find the
enemy, who, having received iutelligevice calthe ap-
proacti of the French squarlrosi, hail eseapA. The
operinnin, therefore, hail efleeted only this, that the

On the state of affairs *WI Austria, this day's
iffoafteer contains nothing; but in some of onr
Papers of to-day, we read again soatte very hostile
articles from Vienna. IVe hear, among other
t Mats, that the grenadier battalion of ;he garrison
0 Vienna had onleri to smirch nu the 25th, and the
remainder on the 25th. l'hey were to repair to

spoken of with great severity, bitt their subjects are
exhorted to make ceriimon entice with Austria
agaiiist France, whit in the pirichirnation to the
army, all kinds of rewards are promised, and it is
fuily annoutieed, that SY SOOII as tiny are over the
frontier they shall he paid in hard cash. Lastly, it
repoited, that the Emperor and all the Arch-
dokrs are to leave Vienna in a few date.
