arrival of His Royal Highness the Duice of Subsex

THit gallant Admiral CORNWALLIS is still at Sr.

Helen's, impatiently waiting a change of the strong
persevering westerly winds, so unusual at this season
of the year.
Dispatches have been received at the Admi.
ralty from Lord Necsow, and a number of pri.
vate Letters are in Town down to the Ist of
July, which state, that the French Fleet in Toulon
is apparently ready for sea.
Intelligence has been received, that 'tree of
the homeward.bound Bengal Ships are arrived in
the Downs.

Captain RontrtsoN, of the Hit:dollar t, h appoint.
eel to the Sfwyiture, an& not Sir SIDNIY SMITH,
the health of this distinguished Officer not being
yet sufficiently reestablished to enable him to take
the command orany Ship.
Sir SIDNEY SMITH is not the only person whose

health has suffered from a long and constant state

of anxiety and fatigue,' which must necessarily be
co' nneded with $ command in the narrow and dan.
gerous Passages, and the innumerable banks and
shoals on the Coast of Holland. There is scarce.
ly an Officer on that Station whose health has
s'ot been materially injured by constantly keeping

:It sea for sixteett•months. It is highly desirable,

that both ships and men, as well those employed here,
as on Channel Service, should occasionally be
relieved, which we have no doubt will be the case in
future, as the increasing state of our Navy, by the
indefatigable zeal and exertion of Lord McLvtLLF,
will, we dou'bt not, very speedily admit of such a
measure.

Idol. night we received the Illottiteurs to the sth
inn. but they bring very little intelligence. Borg.

• Private Letters have been receiveAlby the llam.
,furgh Ma 1, ,which state, that the French, having
failed in their attempts to raise a Loan in Bremen,
had aEtually blockaded that City, and had threaten.
ed, if the money was not immediately advanced, to
raise it by Military execution,
It has been the invariable praftice of the French,
since the. Revolution, to maintain their Armies at
the expe' nee of Other States, anti the different Govern,
snents of France have, when plunder wits to be
obtained, made very little difference between Ene.
Neutrals, or Allies.

Application has also ecn made to the City of
Lulea for a Loan, which has been refused. These
outrages of the French must accelerate that Conic.
deracy of the Northern Towers of which Dorm.
rmura seems to feel such an apprehension ; and the
circumstance of Louts XVIII., having left War.
54W leads us to suppose that the EMPEROR of RVs.
514 IPfill very aeon take a decided part against
France.

While BONAP.A RTv was contented to govern
France under thC title of Consul, the Egrattott of
RUbSTA might consider that Country ai held in
abeyance till" the.dcath of the Usurper, or 110113 e less

riry, and may shake the foundation of every
other Throne. We may therefore look upon
the treatment which Louts the XVIII. has lately re.
ceived from the Russian Monarch as something more
than Royal courtesey, and perhaps as the harbinger of
more effe6ual measures than have yet been taken
to check the insolent,ambition and aggressions of
:France, and to restore, if possible, the Govern.

Yesterday a Court. of DireElors was held at the
East India 'IOUS% when the advises received over.
land, from the Governor. General, were laid before
the Court. The Court adjourned at six
,o'elock till
Friday next.
The Bengal Fleet, consisting of seven ships, and
estimated at 2,000,0001. is expelled to arrive before
the Ist Of next month, and no apprehensions are now
entertained for their safety.
The —Marquis WELLESLEY has transmitted a
notification of his design to quit Bengal early in
the ensuing season.
The PATRIOTIC FUND seta noble example of the
virtue from which it derives its name, in awarding
such liberal remunerations to the Officers of the
China Fleet, which so heroically drove away the
French Admiral. This laudable aft should not be
forgotten amidst the blaze of that extraordinary
proof of munificent gratitude on which the East In.
dia Company have resolved, respecting the same in.
stance of British bravery. The transaetion, nn all
hands, is truly characteristic of this Country---0,1
the one side, we see Heroism that hardly any but
Britons could display ; and on the other, those li-
beral rewards which can bay be expeled from
any thing but British Generosity.
Dispatches were yesterday received at the Ad.
miralty from Sir JAME.S SALOAAREZ, at Jersey,

position as they did when the previous accounts were
transmitted.

The Royal North Britons were inspedecl and re-
viewed yesterday by Colonel JENKSNSON, in Harley
Field. The Colonel was pleased to expiess hid high
satisfadion in perceiving the great degree of discipline
Which they; had attained, but regretted,'as he had
done on former occasions, that their numbers were
soltnall. It was intended that, after the inspection,
the Corps should be reviewed by Major. General

great sat isfaCtion en seeing the perkttion Which they
had attained.

We are Authorized to eontradia the report stating
the death of Mr. OtstoNo, Junior, on his way to
Bath. The .
tribute respect which we paid to
this Gentleman on 'Tuesday last, was founded on
what appeared in the Morning rapers. his with
very-great pleasure that we are enabled to contra.
diet the, report, as he is a very deserving young
man, and will, we doubt not, be' an ornament to
the Literary World. It is surprising that people
will sport with the feelings of 'parents and friends
by such cruet effortt of, invention.
