DEAL, JUNE 5.--This morning, at half paSt six
o'clock, the Vestal Frigate fell in with three large
Lugger-rigged Privateers off Boulogne, the wind
blowing strong at W. S2W;; the Privateers, made
for Calais, but having a stem tide and the wind
a-head, they could neither make way; one of them
bad just before captured a heavy- laden Coasting
Sloop ; fortunately the Vestal put to a press of sail,
and has just brought into the Downs the largest Pri-
vateer, mounting 16:guns and 56 men, with the re-
captured Sloop. - From intelligence of the crew cap-
tured, it. appears they all belonged to Calais, and
were destined to annoy the trade of the Channel ;
but principally to destroy the Mackarel Fishery,
whose streams•are adjacent to the French Coast.

Arrived La Fleche Sloop of War froM Portsmouth,
and sailed for Sheerness; Blanche and Astrea Fri-
ga'es from a Cruize, •and sailed again fo'r the French°
Coast ; Fury Bomb • from Portsmouth ; and L'Es-
piegle Sloop of NV:Jr from Waterford, with Convoys,
which are sailed for the River.

Yesterday the Shipping of His Majesty's Navy in
the Downs exhibited a 'brilliant
~ spedacle ; in the
morning all the Men of War were dressed in their
Signals of every nation ; at twelve o'clock the
Cinque Port Volunteers, stationed at the different
Castles, fired three volleys ; at one o'clock the scene
,became
.more magnificent from a gun from the
Edgar, commanded by Lord KEITH, -the whole of
the Fleet fired 28 rounds ; and with wind at S. W.
and W. the whole atmosphere became enveloped
with smoke. In the evening there was• a grand ball
and supper at the Assembly Rooms.
TaLmorrow evening the Officers of the Coldstream
, Guards perform a Play at the Theatre here, for the
benefit of a 'charitable purpose; Capt. BRADYL, of
theatrical amateur notoriety, takes the leadtin this
laudable, purpose; be is to play Warwick, in " Guy
Earl of Warwick."

. NEW-YORK, MAY, 3.---Byletters from Philadel-
phia we are inforthed,.. that Dispatches have been
,received by Government froth Spain.of a very un-
plea,ant nature.
Letters of the 3d ult. from La Guira have been
received in town, at which time the Embargo. was
taken off; but it was generally supposed it would be
laid on again should MIRANDA make his appearance
on the coast. There wen; no apprehensions :)f.ith-
iiANDA!s succeeding, as .they had'called all the Mili-
tia from theinterior,7and fortified all the principal
points.
Captain STURGES; WhO- has'arrived at Philadel.
phia froM St.'Thomas's, informs us, that the Danes
had, 'by proclathation, prohibited all trade or inter-
course between St. Thomas's and ,the Empire of
Hayti.
Captain KENNEDY, who arrived here yesterday
from Teneriffe,, infOrms '3S • that there Was a British
Squadron cruizing between .St: Vincent's and Ma-
deira, another Squadron between Madeira and Tene-
' riffe, acid a third Squadron of six Sail of the Line,
six Frigates, and two Brigs, cruizing off Palma; and
that a French Brig of i 3 guns had just arrived there,
in eight days from Cadiz. .On passage. she had
an engagement with a British,,Corvette ;'.and, in. at-
te.mpting to board her;, the } renal-nail lost a Lied-
' tebant and five men, whO, failing in their design;
were kept on board the Corvette. .

The following Letter from New York, of the I st.
of May, affords a pretty satiithaory explanation of
the late violent proceedings in that City; iti cense-
quence of the accidental or random shot of the
British :

c, The virus of Patriotism usually breaks forth
here some weeks before an Eledion ; and 'it is gene-
:rally so powerful in its' effe&s, that the unhappy
beings who ad under its influence are wholly inca-
pable of observing the smallest regard thr common
decency or comiton sense. The late unfortunate
accident-off. the Hook, took place at the eve of-an
• Eledion, and both Parties, the Federalists and De-
' wioerats; or Republidnns, in, order: to court the fa-
vour of King Mob ,(whose Sovereignty in this Cowl:.
try let no man dispute), were eager to prove- their
superior attachment tO their own Country, by en-
deavouring to out-do their opponents'in• abuse of the
. British, It is pretty evident, however, that botli
Parties seem to have a very high opinion of the for-
bearance of yo,ur Country, as in cases of French
outrage, their tone, Whatever they may pretend to
feel, is usually, pitched to the lowest mite in the
Gamut."
