As the Thames is on the eve of leasing this for
England, J send you a few lines by her : we still
remain cruizing off Toulon, blockading the enemy's
force, which c.,nsists of 13 sail of the line, 8 tri-
gates, a store ship, and one brig ready for sea. They
have four ships of the line dismantled. Two de-
serters from the enemy have brought us the infor-
mation that Admiral ALLEMANGE has arrived from
Rochefort, and has hoisted his flog. F(Tir thousand
eight hundred seamen are on their march truly
Rochefort ; the first division of them is said to have
joined the fleet in Toulon. It is generally expelled
in our fleet, that the enemy will make a push ft3r
some place shortly. We have 13 sail of the line,
two of which generally rendezvous at Minorca la
water and provisions, in order that we may not all
quit the station together. Commodore HAR.GOOD,
in the Aorthumberland, is before Trieste, with three
sail of the line, besides frigates.

redly 'open. Trieste had been lately fortified again

tour sail of the line, a titate, and a store-ship, We.re
