HIS MAJR,I-T-Y walked for some time in the Gar-
dens of the-Queen's Palace on Saturday, and it was
said that His Royal Highness the DUKE of You
had an audience afterwards ; but this circumstance
seems to admit of some doubt. Yesterday, however,
at two o'clock, • the LORD CHANCELLOR had an
audience f His MAJESTY. The badness of the
day yesterday prevented the KING from walking,

No accounts have yet been received, of the cause
or the effects of the repeated heavy cannonadings
heard for several days past in the. quarter of Boulogne.
One heard on Friday was supposed to proceed from
borne' of our vessels being becalmed under the range
of the French Batteries, or that the attempt was
making to sink the Stone-ships that sailed a day or
two before from the Downs. We cannot but ex-
press both our surpriie. and uneasiness at having
heard nothing certain of late respesting the opera.

YESTERDAY five Hambargb Mails arrived, It
is stated in a Letter from Florence, that the French
Government had made a demand upon the IC;ltiG of
NAPLES, that he should deliver up to the French
three of his. Fortresses, and a certain number of
Ships of War ; to which demand His Neapoli-
tan Majesty has given an unequivocal refusal.—
If the circumstances mentioned- in this Letter are
true, it is a strong confirmation of the report which
has been some time in circulation, viz. that a Ne-
kotiationwas on foot, if not actually concluded, be,.
tween Naples and Russia, for an Alliance offensive
and defensive; because, without the prospeet of
some very powerful assistance, it is not probable
that Naples would .have, given so decided a refusal.
Wii,ther the French, in this new aa of aggressiOn,.
are influenced by the. desire of plunder, or whether
their objet is to exclude the English entirely from
the Ports of Naples, we have great reason to fear
that their purposes will be accomplished. before any
aid can be derived from Russia.

The report of the sailing of the Toulon Fleet is
mentioned in Letters from -diErent parts of Italy,
but there does .not appear to be any foundation for

A packet of Antigua Papers to the beginning of
February, came to hand On Saturday.—We learn

that quarter. The Commander in Chief, ERNOUF,
had in consequence-issued a Proclamation, subjed-
ing every free man- on the island to immediate mili-
tary execution, if on .heing ordered to-march, he
refused to du so—he is likewise- to carry with him
four of his- best slaves to t,e place: of rendezvous,
where they are to be armed. ERNOUF has further
decreed, that any person disseminating alarm or
terror, or who shall know any matter relating to
the designs of the English, without making cnm.
munication. of it to the Government, shall be ar-
rested, and delivered over to a Council of War.
