FALMOUTH, APRIL 28.—The weather here for the
last two days has been extremely boisterous, at times chilly,
cold, and otherwise unseasonable. Yesterday it blew a com-
plete gale at west, with occasional showers; and to-day it
has veered to south-west, still blowing a smart gale, with
lit tle or no rain ; sunshine more frequent. This morning has
put in, from:stress of weather, the French frigate Bayonnaise,
of 28 guns, Captain De la Graviere, from Cherbourg; and
outside the port has anchored her Majesty's frigate Thetis,
Captain Codringion, from Portsmouth.
Both these vessels
are bound to Lisbon, and have found it impracticable to get
out of the Channel. They worked down from the Dodman
this morning together; but a marked difference was observ-
able in their qualities, favourable to the latter ship, which,
it must be admitted, however, is of larger tonnage. Some
grain vessels are again arriving from the southward, and
many are expected.
