. The' Bombay Gazette, of 06lober 30, 1805, says":
" On Saturday last anchored in the Harbour the
Ship Pearl, under charge. of Mr. HENDE.RSON, prize
`to His Majesty's Ship Lord Dloican, Lieutenant
SNEYD. The Lord Duncan, 'Lieut. SNEYD, sailed
from Madras, on a cruize, in the month of July
last, and, after a passage of five weeks, made the
Island of Rederigues, 'where they discovered a
FrenCh Brig .riding in the Harbour.; the Lord Dun-
can was hove_to, her Boats manned and armed, and
sent in to board the Brig ;' in the mean time, the
Commander, Officers, and Crew, after cutting her
cables, deserted her, and went on shore in theisland.
The Lord Duncan's boats boarded, arid ,took pos-
.session of her; they found her principally laden. with
fish ; but the wind blowing bard in, and a strong'
current against them,' they found it impraaicable to
tow her out : they set fire taller, and destroyed 'her.
" On the following day she bore up for the Isle of
France, and the day after making the Island she
fell in with andicaptured the Brig Felicite,' of about
90 tons burthen,laden with plank ; .they saw, and
chased-the Henriette French Privateer; she had just
left :the Island cn a cruize, but being light winds,
she escaped by..superiority of sailing. The Lord
Duncan then' proceeded to the Island of Bourbon,
where she fell ha with, and chased on shore, a French
Corvette, carrying eight guns and four swivels. The
Corvette was completely dashed to pieces on the
Shore. .

" From, the Island of Bourbon the Lord Duncan
shaped a course for St. Mary's, on the Island of Ma-
dagascar : they met the most cordial reception from
the Natives, who were exeedingly anxious ,to
ply them with every necessary the place aftbrded ;
here they continued nine days, after which .they
weighed, and ran down the East Coast of the
Island of Madagascar, looking into the. different
ports ; and at Fort Dauphin they fell in with and
captured the Ship Pearl, and destroyed' A French
Brig ; the Crew of the 'Brig had run her on shore,
where the Duncan's boats destroyed h6r. The Com=
Mander and Officers of the Pearl had cut her cables,
set fire to the Ship, and deserted her, taking ieftige
on shore ; fortunately the boats got timely on Ward
to extinguish the fire, with the 'assistance of the Las-
cars they foUnd on board, and got, her' clear out:
" Mr. ITEknEasoN was
_pot on board the Pearl,
as prize-master, having a part p.f the Ye/icite"s crew
on board, and in. company with -that Vessel parted,
with the Lord Duncan on the 2g t h alt. Finding the
Felicitd 3 bad sailer, the Pearl parted company with
her on. the 2d inst. making the best of their way to
Bombay so that the arrival of- the Felie ma}r be
daily expeEted. When they parted_ company with
the Lord Duncan she Was steering for the Island of
Bourbon."

The Aurora, STRINGER,' Parthean, Mom, Nile,
HANNA, and the Phybe,- JONES,' froii ‘Janicica for
London, arc. arrived at Cork.

Some mouths since the Leander was appointed to
receive the flag of Adtniral BERKELEY, who was, as
usual, allowedsto nominate his Captain ; and Capt.
HUNIPHRIES had, iii consequence, been ordered to
supersede Capt. Wurr.mr. . Capt. HUMPHRIES sailed
some time ago in the Vile de 11Pcin to assume his
command. We are induced to recall these circum-
stances to the remembrance of our Readers, as they
will account .for the removal of Capt. Wnrrny from
the command of the Ledndir, independent,of any
reference to the unfortunate action which took-place
off Sandy Hook. . .

The Monitetir of the same day also contains the:

of May 30, wherein he expressed his opinion, that
should a favOurable opportunity occur, he would

covering for Europe what had been ►ost in the last.
campaign :

" This passage in Mr.-Fox's speech is really ct.c.•
traordinary. What'does nfean by aOing ottensive4
ly on the Continent? What war is there on the Con-`
tinent ? Who are the Allies.of England in this war ?
Is it Prussia ? But if we rightly read the declaration of
England, she has ordered the Prussian Vessels to 1-,e
detained; and in that we cannot'recognize a stipula-
tion of alliance.—ls it Austria ? But. before.we
suppo,e Mr. Fox thinks so, we must set him down as
ignorant of the Treaty of Presburgh. is it Russia. ?
We must also suppose Mr. Fox does not know that
which is known, to 'almot all Europe at .this
Let him be well persuaded, that the Court of Saint
Petersburgh does not know what she herself has v..,
fear froMEnglarid .upon the seas and in the East ;
and that she is ignorant that the „affront which has
been offered to her Ambassador in China has b•.ezt
produced by the intrigues of the English' FaCiory,
We must suppose; in fad, that Mr, Fox is ignorant
that the 'Mouths of the cataro have been restored
to Austria ; • that Btannati is in censequencp restored
to,the Emperor of Germany, and that the grand
Army, in the course of a few weeli_s- will be'niiited
in Paris, for'the Fetes which were intended to take
place in the month of May. It is true,. that the :in-
trigues of. the English retarded these Fetes three,
months ; but it would be easy for us to prove, that
the _power of 'France has-beeri, increased by the de-
lay, and thitt her system has bee"n censohdated.. it
is thus that the efforts of England. always turn to
our advantage.__.

" If she :will only make Peace when sh' shall
have recovered all that she has lost on the Continent;
which probably means when she ..,,hall have elfeaed
the re-establishment of the Stadtholder'ln Holland,
of ' Austrian Belgium', of the
,Doges at. Veniee,anti
Genoa, and.of her vielitn at Naples, this dedaration"
is by no means consoling for.the creditors of the
English debt. Mr. Wr ND FI ANI himself, excellent an
officer as he is, knowp that it will require twenty
campaigns to ' 'succeed' to , this extent; and the re-
establishment of the Princes who owe'their fall to
nothing else—than England, does not offer a very en 7
couraging'proSpea to the new Allies who I.Vould
engage in' this fourth Coalition.

" Bui, if we are to believe these Orators, their
new military-system is to change every thirig. What
nonsense! At no period have armies purely Englisli
ever rendered themselves conspicuous on the Conii-
nent. Thus the troops of the Black Prince Were
composed of Bretons, Gascons, Normans. CHARLES
the Bad, the DukeS of BURGUNDY, the great Feu
datories who betrayed their Prince, produced the stic.
cess of England. Thus thearin les of MAR/Ali-mutual:
consisted of Dutch and Germans, and, only a smal'
number of English. It is true, the DUKE,of Youi:
commanded an army wholly English when he
peared in our days before Dunkirk; but we know
the result of the
.battle of Hondscoote. It is true,
that this, same Prince commanded an army -entirely.
English when he landed in'Holland; but the -retrtat
of Alkmaar will not be compared with that of the
Ten Thousand. It ii.true, that more,lately.also, and
in the last war,.the English landed in Naples but they
only appeared' there to overturn the throne; and,
after, having thus destroyed-it; thty, did- riot hondur
its fall with a drop of their blood.

"Theyhave also appeared in Hanover ;• but here
their triurriphs were limited to the power of re-ern—
barking—an advantage which they owed solely to
the King of Prussia, that Prince whom they treat al
this moment with so little consideration.
" Should it even be true, that England had con-
siderable armies in the time of Louis XIV. and XV.
we are to draw no conclusion from that respe&ing her
actual military. Powers. She had not then the great
extent of possessions which now belong, her. Were
her Army as great as it has been, it would be anni-
hilated.by the eStablishnients which these: detach , •
ments require.- Thus, she is obliged tp keep fort,
Regiments in the East Indies, ten in the West, two
at Malta, two. at Gibraltar, &c. A Nation of nine
milliOns-of people, which before it can have a man for
its own defence, is obliged to send fifty Regiments to.
the East and West Indies, to oppose the entire Indian
population, the Negroes, the Canadians, and theyel-.
low fever, can never be a military power in Europe ;.
and it is in these circumstances that England has lost -
twenty-five thousand 'Hanoverian •-soldiers—a loss
which she will never repair. The English are laugh-
ing at the Princes of Europe, when they suppose that
