LONDON,
THURSDAY, AUGUST 22, 1805•

Inc is with regret that We are obliged to confirm
the account we gave yesterday of the capture of the
Blanche Frigate, Capt4in Muncie, after one of the
most gallant actions that perhaps ever was • fought,
by the Topaze French Frigate, of 44 guns, two
Corvettes of guns each, and a Brig of 16 guns,
making together 100 guns, and the number of men
on board the French Vessels amounted to 900.

This Force was opposed to' a British Frigate of 36
guns, with very few more than 2.00 men onboard.
Capt. Munoz continued the action against, this
very superior Force until the Blandui was very
near sinking ; an& in tact, she sunk very soon
after slicv was taken possession Of.---Our loss in
kliled and,. wounded is,. we are sorry to say, con-
siderable. Captain Muna was not wounded ;
his Letter is datedpri board the Topaze.
We stated yesterday that a part of the Fleet under
the command of Admiral CORNWALLIS has been de-
tached for the purpose of resuming the Blockade of
Ferrol. The force detached for that purpose con-
sisted of twenty Sail of the Line.
This Fleet will immediately be reinforced by the
So.kt 'Joseph, of 110 guns, and several other Vessels,.
and the whole will be placed under the command of
Admiral Sir CHARLES COTTON.

,THE two Hamburgh Mails!, due on Sunday and
Wednesday last, arrived this morning. The follow-
ing are their contents

VIENSA, AUGUST 7.—We are assured that the
Troops distributed in the different Provinces will this
autumn be collected in several Camps. The Troops
of Bohemia will form a Camp near Budweis ; those
of Upper Austria will encamp on the Weiser Heath ;
and those of Lower Austria occupy a Camp near
Winkendorf, to which several Corps will repair
from Moravia; these Regiments are in consequence
expeEted from that Province.
There is a general movement among all our Ile-
,
giments. 'All these military preparations are consi-
dered as measures necessary for the maintenance of
our Neutrality, and necessarily occasion a removal
and marching of the Troops and considerable trans-

ports.

.ALTON 4, AUG. 16.--A pfivate Letter from Paris
states, that there are frequent conferences between
M. TALLEY RAND and Count D COBENTZEL, the
Austrian Ambassador ; and it, is hoped that the slif-
ferences which for some months past.have occasion-
ed dii:Jaisions between the two Courts will be anti.
c.bly terminated.
Ail the Swedish Ships which were embargoed in
France, to the number of 90, have been set at li-
berty.
