little better than a Defeat.

Letters from Vienna of the '23d ult. State, that it
had been agreed between the French Arnbas4ador
and theuCourt of Vienna that Austria should take no

further steps relative to Cataro, but that every thing
with respe& to that place should remain on its then
footing, till a declaration should be received from
Paris, whither a Courier had been sent. It is con-
firmed that Cataro is in the possession of the Mon-
tenegrins, from whom the French will probably not

easily wrest it.
The new Treaty of Federation was to be pre-
sented to the Germanic Diet on the Ist inst.

A great motion, towards the eastward, is stated
to prevail among the French Troops in Germany.
It is also said, that a considerable French camp will
be formed in the neighbourhood of Ratisbon. This
does not look much like Peace.
M'. D.'OuBRIL arrived at Berlin on the 2gth ult.
and was to set off the same night on his journey to
St. Petersburgh.

The conditions of the Peace between Russia and
France are'reported to be as follows':—The Russians
to surrender Cataro to the. French, and separate
themselves from the Montenegrins ; the. French to

evacuate Ragusa, which shall again be placed under
the
sproteaion or the 'Porte ; b9th Powers to guaran- •
tee to the Porte the integrity of its dominions ;
France within, a certain time (what time ?) afterthe
evacuation of Cataro 'to withdraW her Troops from
Germany.—Russia to use her endeavours to restore
Peace between France and England, and to employ
her good. offices to accommodate the disputes , be-
tween Prussia and Sweden. These are reported in
the Hamburgh Correspon4nien of the 2d inst. to be
nearly the conditions of the Treaty. It is not stated
within what period of time the French Troops au
to evacuate Germany, neither is_there any security
. whatever against the French-designs,,in Tprkey,
• ex-
cept a nominal guarantee of the integrity of the domi-
nions of the,Porte, whilst the brave Montenegrins are
abandoned to theii- fate, and Cataro, the. Pass to the -
Turkish EmPire, surrendered, without limitation, to
the French. We can scarcely, ~however, believe it
possible that the EN:pr,oß of Russi4 would so com-
pletely desert his unfortunate Ally, the KING of
NAPLES, as the Conditions thus 'stated would im-
ply. Notone word issaidrespeeting that unfortunate
.Monarch, who, if we are 'to believe the statement
of theHainlurgh CorresPondenten,is, equally with the.
Montenegrins, left to his fate If this is the Treaty,
we must deeply lament its conclusion. -It is yet,
however, unratified. M. D'Oungii. must surely
have exceeded his instruaions in signing such a
Treaty. We anxiously wait for some intelligence
upon the subjea in,the shape of official information.

Air. Fox has remained much in the same' state
for the last two days, but, his friends are, at least,
cheered by the consideration that he has had no re-

sent, the powers of his mind were as pert-ea as
when he was in full health.

SIR,

I beg leave to acquaint you, that I continued in
pursuit of four of the Enemy's Frigates the tight of
the 27th instant ; although I'lost sight of them, as
also of the Squadron under your command, soon.after
it was dark, except the Atrica, which we saw until
about eleven o'clock; on the lee-quarter, when 'she
was observed to burn some false fires. 'We steered,
about point free the whole night, with a light in the
stern, standing to the Southward, and carried a press
of sail ; I was induced so to do from observing' the
course the Enerny'S Squadron was steering when first
seen, and judging that it would increase their diffi-•
culty of getting to leeward of `us it had that effeet
most fully, for-at daylight yesterday Morning they.'
were discovered precisely on the same bearing as on
the previous evening, though at, a greater distance,
except,their sternmost Ship, which we appeared to
be gaining op ; this induced the French Commodore
. to tack with his three head-most Ships, and join
:her, and formed in Line of Battle on the larboard
tack, .1 thought, and hoped, with a determination
to try the -fortune of war, which was what every
one on board the Mars most anxiously wished; but
after making some signals,-about three in the after-
noon he made off with three Frigates, the other
continued her course under an extraordinary preSs
Of sail, and finding that she was the only one we
had gained on during a cline of one hundred and
fifty miles,. and the day far spent, I still kept after
her till six o'clock, when in the midst of a violent
squall of wind and hail we were ranging upon her
lee-quarter; after the first shot she struck her
lours, just at the moment our broadside was about
to open on her. She proved to be Le Rhin, a very
tine French Frigate of forty-four guns, eighteen-
pounders on the main deck, and three hundred and
'eighteen men ; only fOur years old, commanded by
Captain Chesneau; the Squadron was commanded
by Monsieur Lamarre Lameillerie, in the Hortense, -
with the Hermione .and Themis Frigates, on: their,
return from Portd Rico. Soon after theitliin 'had .
surrendered, on the squall clearing away; the other
three Frigates were seen standing to the South East ; •
and I regret that the weather, which has yet-:pre-Vented our removing more than one-third of the
Prisoners, made it iinpraaicable for me to pursne
them further. I cannot conclude without express-
ing my admiration of the conduct of every Officer
;And Man in this Ship during a chace of twenty-four
hours, against so superior a force, with, very bad '.
'weather, and incessant rain
.;.several of our 'sails
were split, and replaced with alacrity'; and, in.shOrt,
Lad the remainder of the French. Squadron waited
our approach, from the great zeal: manifested by
every person on hoard, I have no doubt but our ef-
forts would have been crowned with complete suc-
cess in their destru&ion. .
