Tun attempt which was expeeted to take place
on Tuesday night" upon the Flotilla at Boulogne,
was not. made, in consequence of the wind being
very nnflwourable. The Speculator Lugger arrived
at Dover yesterday from the British' SqUatiron., which
was left lying at anchor about, three miles from the
French Coast. The French were evidently In ex
peaation of an attack ; nn itntnense number of
Gun-brigs were moored in a. line, close under the
Batteries.---Wo have Made arrangements for obtain-
ing the cutest intelligence from Dover of the reult
of the Intended Attack.

:CT has been stated in several of the Public Prints
that the Troops under the Command 'of. Gen Do
11.2 d arrived in the Weser. We have very little doubt
that they have arrived at the, place of their destina-
-
tion, bat Government have not yet received any of-
ficial altelllgence upon the subjeet.

Ws have been favoured with the sight of a private
T.,etter from the nagne, dated the nth inst. received
by the last Hambargh Mail, which says--

" I can assure you of a fadt, which better than
pur °ma►.'tl Gazette evinces the spirit of our Omin.
try—When the exaggerated news of BosTAraivrz's
Viaories arrived, every. countenance .bespoke sad-
;less and melancholy Whilst, op the contrary, the
unadorned news of Admiral Copwatmwoot) aniniat-
ed dullness itself, and nothing was seen bur shaking
of [lands, visible smiles, but silent congratulations.
I suppose you know, that here, as well as in free
France, speaking not sentiments is more danger-
013$ and more criminal than robbing one's neigh-

bows.

at present does ' not amount to nine thousand, and

we Shall have ,lere a • French Army of seventy or
eighty thousand men, destined not only to pate&
Holland, but to rt-conquer Hanover.
Our. Troops, under Gen. IV/AatoNT, have
fered severely during the late Engagements in ,Ger-
'many... Of fourteen thousand, eightthousand have
been 'killed ta• wounded; and our Government is now
busy
,toreplace them, if Prussia does not prevent the
fdture passage of Recruits towards the German,Em-
pire, by an invasion of our own Territory, round
tvhich Prussian Light Troops have been hovering
for-dear three weeks.

Our Finances are still in the most - lamentable
situation ; nevertheless, our Governnient is called
upon to proVide for the clothing and eqUipping of,
1 t,OOO Conseripts, said to be on ,their march to this
Country. The Contributions we at present pay are
not five per Cent. on our Incomes, but ten per Cent.
on our Capitals.

"Our political communications with Prussia, Rus-
sia, and Sweden, continue open.

" Among the anecdotes related here by the
Orange Party is one which, if true, does not be-
speak the •stability of our present order of things.
-It is said that our present Grand Pensionary Scam-
MELPErJINCK, has borrowed money upon all his
property in. , this Country, to the full amount of it,
and remitted it to France, to be laid out in the
French Funds-or in Estates.

=Ft be near, which will determine
whether we art to continue enslaved and oppressed
by Prance," or to recover our former independence
and pro'sperity, under the pternal Government of
the Princes oldie House of ORANGE."

to his feelings, and ..hio,sense of 'the. ineriti 4f the
greatest and most virtuous Statestnan that the world
oversaw; the 4PPlail.le was so kind, and continued
so long, as to she that but one sentiment animated
the Whole Company. That Company too, connoted
