TouLos, Nov. c7:—Foluteen sail of the• line
and two frigates sailed from this Rnad the 20th inst:
under the Orders of I:,drniral EMERIM.T.

Wo,!aw them manceuvering at a great distance
from the coast till the 22d, when we lost jeight of
the main body of the squadron. Upon ,its return,
we learned that it went to a great distance' in pur-
suit of an English ship abd a frigate, and that the
ships of the line Trident and Amelia neared them,
but without being able to g-t within gnod cannon-
•hot distance,

Kiny shots were fired by the chasing and chaved
ships, and several bullets from either side went

through the sails.

The Engli h ships threw their anchors, cables,
boats, &c. ov,...rboard, to enable them to sail quicker,
notwithctanding which they would inevitably have
been taken, had not our ships been continually
annoyed by a calm or baffling winds.
The chase lasted nine hours, during which we
had hopes of reaching, and it was in the evening
that the enemy, having got a good breeze, long
time before our ships, who were behind, and ai
such a &stance as to induce Rear Admiral BAUDIN,
who cornmandeci the advance, to give over the tiur-;
suit.

This took place on the 221, but the squadron ditt
not return till the 25th, though the
very bad, which ciwurnstance appears 'to have in.;
duced the Admiral to keep to sea, in order to eXer--;
cise his crews, and protect several convoys
were in motion upon the coasts.

was ordained that they were to be united,
was therefore impossible that she could be married
and it
to any other man. These truly tender love-epistles„
from a person who was not even known to Midis
Long, Lady Long, or any of the family, only served
them for amusement, till he attempted to prove his
attachment and devotion to her person,
by personal
visits, which, however, were not received or coon-
enanced in the slightest manner. Ab ,ut this time

much, that they were prisoners in their own house;

till some person partook of the food or liquids, and
ate or drank of it in .his presence, assigning as a
