LONDON,
MONDAY, AUGUST 4, 1806.

EVE stated on- Saturday information, upon which
we new vite could place the
.most -implicit ,confi.;
deuce,' that ,Lord'LAIMERDALE 'would leave Town
that day. His Lordship left ToWn in the afternoon,-
accompanied by Mr. GODDARD anO.,,apother Geritle-
man, attended by Mr. BASILICO theiMosenger, and
arriv:l a: Deal between one'andi tWo o'clock in ,the
Inwilkng. Admiral HOLL'owAy was inimediatcly
called up, wllo sent for Commodore Owjri. After
.:.•king a slight refreshment at the Admiral's. house,
his -Lordship, with the two Gentlemen and Mr.
B 4 SILIco, embarked on board the Cy' de Frigate,
Commodore OWEN; and it Was expected that they
would reachßoulogiie abouCeleven_or twelve o'clock
yesterday. •

WE. have this day made ;;ore Extra&s from the
Halablirgh Mail which arrived on Saturday night.
'e, were enabled to anticipate the principal Articles
which if contains in our Paper of Saturday., The
plan for the entire subversion of the ancient .Con'sti-
tution of Germany seems nearly ripe for execution.
We doubt whether the EMPEROR of GERMANY will
be allowed to retain the nominal title' of, ‘f Head of
the Empire," but .certainly he will be deprived of all
the power and 'influence which fOrmerly belonsed to
that exalted station. The French are colleting a
very -large Army in Dalmatia, for the purpose, as it
is state 1, of assisting the Turks in subduing the Ser-
vian Insurgents. This service will, no doubt), be re-
warded by the Porte with some important Cessions
t , France, which will enable her to acquire and
ivaintain a decided preponderance, iti; the Turkish
Councils.: It is said that Austria and t'rrissia have
, .
'protested against the Eletion of Cardinalli'Escd to
be Coadjutor to the Ele6tor Arch-Chancellor, but
this opposition comes now too late.-

THE, conclusion of a Separate Peace between
France and Russia, of which 'we .gave the first in-
formation-to the. Public, fully justifies all we'said on,
the silence of the King's Speech as to our Allies, and
affords a very striking proof of the discernment
. - •
and prudence'of Administration: It is evident that
something must have occurred which induced them
to apprehend that they could not place the same re-
rrimce on the New Admiuistration of Russia as in
their. Predecessors, and therefore our Ministers wise-

Iy forebcre to commit themselves- on •the sublet of
' our Allies, by .any allUsiOn to thern in' the Royal
Speech.on the plrorogatiot of Parliament. Now,
then, it is to be:hoped that the opponents of Go-
vernment will recant, their censures on -that:cautious
reserve, which was the effect of Sound. Oulicy and
wisdom. ,

Mr. Fox, according to some reports' to day, is
much worse ; but though it has been thought ne-
cessary to make some addition to the medical autho-
ritiesin consultation upon his case, we lave reason
to believe that no essential change, favourable or
otherwise, has aaually taken place within the last
three or four'days.

Yesterday morning His Majesty paraded"tho Royal
ihiorso Guards and Royal Stafford Regirrients iti
Windsor Court Yard; The bands of eachaßegi-
Inellt played during the.time. Afterwards :His MA
JEsTY walked to St. George's Chapel with the Prin7
cesses AUGUSTA, ,MARY, Sopithk, and AMELIA,
attended by Ladies ELY, M; BOOTHEY, .011 d CUM-
B a LAND, Lord ST. HELENS, Generals CARTWRIGHT

and Frrzxoy,, and Col. TAYLOR, where a *mon
was preached by the Rev. Nlr. LONG; after which
they went to Frogmore, where Her MAJESTY and
Princess ELIZ.-VRETH were ready to receive them,
aml partook of a cold collation.
The Letters by the Lisbon Mail were delivered
on Saturday ; one dated the 18th ult, mentions that,
In consequence of a communication from Paris,
orders had been sent from Madrid for the sailing of
the Squadron at Carthagena, as Vas supposed for
Italy. •
Government received on Saturday some Dispatches
from Sir ALEXANDER COCHRANE, by'
the Gipsey
Schooner, arrived at' Portsmouth, blit they are dated
the !.?.sth June, and consequently bring nothing new.
Fisl:ltr arrived on Saturday, at Mr. Fox's
flake, with dispatches from the Court of St. Pe-
krl4burgh.
• The 'embarkation of the troops for Sicily is now
"ne,irly completed. The 54d Regiment, t too strong,
tuarch-ed into Ramsgate on Friday at noon, under the
command of Colonel BARCLAY, and embarked soon

after.

The Public will. observe with pleasure the addi-
.
tion,ll laurels obtained by that ini.aluable Cdrps, the
Mariues, under the co:111'1;114dt he renowned

of those distinguished O: firers that g.tined 'the Me-
from the GRAND SIGNIOR, for, their eminent
mil ices in the m,emorable•Egyptian cainpaign. As
a victory is aehie‘ed in any part, of the.workl
without the assistance of a part.of this !body; we
sincerely hope thfit they will soon receive that re-

their zeal, patriotism, and military prowess, so am-
dece!,.e.

SIR,

I inclose the relation of a very gallant "%Ilion in
which the most intrepid valour has been manifested,
and the national charader highly sustained; but I
greatly
.lament the loss of a number of brave men in
the performanCe of it, flattering myself, however,
that sixteen of them are prisoners.
I am, &c. ST. VINCENT.
Centaur, off Rochefort;
MY LORD, jll/1/19, 1806.

I beg leave to inclose to your Loralhip a Letter I
have received from Captain Rodd, of His 11/lajesty's
Ship Indefatigable, giving an account Of an Attack
made by a Boat from each Line-of-battle Ship of
this Squadron, and those of His Majesty's Ships In-
defatigable and Iris; on two Corvettes- and a Con-
voy, in the entrance of the River Garonne. Le
Caesar, the largest Corvette, was boarded and car--
ried by the division of Boats led on by Lieut. Sibly,
First Lieutenant of the Centaur, in a style highly.
honourable to the national chara&er. The western
breeze-that sprung up after the Boats left the Inde-
fatigable, and blowing stronger as they advanced,
was truly perplexing, for it was the only circum-
stance that could have prevented the whole falling
into our hands; they took advantage on the first
attack, and made sail, and escaped before the wind
and tide up the Garonne; it was impossible for the
Boats to prevent them. The firm resistance made
by the Corvette caused a greater loss than could be
expeeled, but nothing could withstand the bravery
of the Officers and Seamen employed: •.- ---'
To Lieutenant Sibly's gallantry no worgs-.pl.nine
are equal to do justice, every one speaki d film in
terms of the highest commendation, and I had be 7
fore, in the West Indies, experienced his brave
conduft, and he now has seven severe wounds; but
I hope none mortal, and I beg leave to recom-
mend him as an Officer truly deserving the atten-
tion of my Lords. Commissioners of the Admiralty.
To Lieut. Parker, First of the Indefatigable, much
praise is due; and given him by Lieut. Sibly, for his
brave support and able cOnduet in managing the
i
Corvette after he was wounded. • . 1 :., , '5:l

Indefatigable, off Rochefort,
17th July, 1896.

SIR,

I have the Honour to acquaint you,, -in obedience
to your orders of the 141 ft inst. I gave the command
of the Boats of the Squadron: you sent me by the
Iris, for the purpose of endeavouring ,to capture or
destroy the French Convoy, in the entrance of the
River of Bourdeaux (with the addition of three from
thelndefatigable, and three from the Iris), to Lieu-
tenant Sibly, of the Centaur, with all the informa-
tion I was in possession of respeding their situation,
in the evening of the 15th, it appearing a favourable
time to. make the attempt ; though some tiiiie''afier
the Boats had quitted the Indetatigabie the wind-
shifted to the westward and came on to htow, fresh,.
notwithstanding theßoats proceeded to VerdittßOad,
boarded and carried . the French Brig Le Cmsar, of
18 guns, and by the Rolle d'Equipage, 8(5 men,
commanded by Mons. Louis Francois Hedor Fuurre,
Lieutenant de Vaisseau., The contlidt was severe on
both sides, the Frenchmen being in every reaped
well prepared, expelling the attack... The wind
coming to blow-fresh, and the tide running very
strong, was much against the Boats; but nothing
could withstand such Men led on by the Officers
who "commanded them. \

Lieut. Sibly, I lament to say, is badly wounded
M several places, though, from the report`' the
Surgeon, I trust, will recover. To this gallair,Ofe
ficer (whose condu& is spoken of by all whowere
under his command with admiration) tbeg to refer
you fiy. particulars. The Convoy all cut their cables
and run up the River instantly on the attaekilbeing
made on the Brig.
_ _ _

There is mud; credit due to Lieutenant Thomas
Parker, First of the Indefatigable, who• took the
command of Le Ctesai,

his conduCt in working her otit • past the Batteries,
which kept up a constant 'cross fire on her,and en-
