A Daily Paper, devoted to the late Admiralty
board, and decidedly hostile to the present, advert.
ing to the silence of the Aloniteur respecting our re-
cent attack on the Boulogne Flotilla, observes, that
there was time enough for the particulars of the affair
to be transmitted to Paris between the morning of
I•Vednesday the 3d, and that of Saturday the 6th,
the date of the last French Official Paper, but re_
marks, that though the British Capital-is not above
Attrif that distance from the scene of action, the ac.
count of it did not appear in the LondenGassette until
late in the evening of the 6th inst. We beg leave,
11°wever, to remind the Print alluded to, that the
dagsGamette is only published twice a week, and
the
r Al,4riteier every day. If it should be said that
.Y's'vernment should have published a Gazette
Tvt'ao'dinary upon the occasion, we answer,
That Government never • made a fiat about this
"lee
business, but conduifted it so Cautiously that it
r was beard of but in its issue; and as the
whOe was but. an experiment, there was no reason
to make it the Subje‘.l of any extraerclina9 notice.
it will be full time enough for an Extraordinary
Cozen', if the rashness and folly of the Enemy
shOuld tempt us to repeat the experiment upon such
a settle as may finally crush all his hopes of invad-
ing this Country.
