LONDON, APRIL zB, 1804.

Mr. Fox's Motion resspeaing the Hanoverian
Troops, which was expeded to have come on last
night in the House of Commons, is fixed for Wed-
nesday, and the CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER
expressed his intention to oppose it.
Mr. CORRY last night stated the terms upon
which the Loan was made in Ireland, and gave no-
tice chat he should open the Irish Budget in the
course of next week.

Nothing material has occurred on the Coast for
some days. The Boulogne blockading Squadron
has been obliged, in consequence of the late strong
gales, to—leave the French Coast ; but there is no
danger of the French Flotilla putting to sea in
weather which makes it necessary for the English
Squadron to return to Port.—Another attempt is to
be made in the course of a few days, to sink the
Stone Ships ; but we confess we are by no means
sanguine in our hopes of the success of that Expe-
dition.

The re.capture of Garee, the only conquest made
by the French during the present War, refleas
great honour -upon Captain DixoN, of the Incon-
slant Frigate, for the presence'of Mind and energy
which he displayed, on that occasion. The re-
taking of that Island is of considerable im_
portance, for if it were to remain in the hands
of the French, it would afford them constant op.
portunities of committing depredations upon our
Trade in that quarter.

This morning arrived a Mail from Lisbon;
brought to Falmouth by the Wahiagham Packet,
in 13 days.
Yesterday about twelve o'clock, the LORD CHAN•
CELLOR had an audience of His MAJESTY.
Yesterday soon after one o'clock, HER MAJESTY
and the four younger PRINCESSES, attended by
Countess HARRINGTON and Lady M. WINYARD,
took an airing on the Surrey road.
Yesterday His Royal Highness the DUKE of CUM-
BERLAND gave a grand dinner to a select party, at
his apartments in St. James's Palace.
ERRATA in the List of the Minority on the 23d
of April.—For LAURIE, Sir ROBERT, read, LAW-
LEY, Sir ROBERT—For TURNER, Sir G. P. read,
TURNOR, EDMUND.

We hope, in a few days, to be able to give a
eoireet.List of the Minority on the 25th.

We yesterday announced the re-capture of the
Island of Goree, by a small British force. We are
now enabled to add, that this event was accomplish.
ed by Capt. Di cicsbx, of the Inconstant Frigate, who
sailed from Portsmouth in February, with a detach-
ment of Troops to reinforce the Garrison of that
place. The address and presence of mind dis-
played by Captain DICKWN on this occasion,
are highly creditable to him. He arrived off
Goree shortly after the Island was delivered up
to the Enemy. Unacquainted with that cir.
cumstance, he went on shore, and was imme-
diately detained. In this unexpected situation,
he, with great presence of mind, informed the'
French Commandant, that he had come for the
express purpose of re-taking the Island, and instead
of being deceived with respeCt to its present state,
he had landed in order to summon the Garrison, in
person; to surrender to the arms of His BRITAN-
NIC MAJESTY. He added, that he had on board a
Force mare than adequate to the task of taking the
place by assault, and that, if the Island was
not immediately surrendered to him, the French
Commander must abide the consequence of an inef-
fettual resistance to a superior force. This artful
expedient produced‘the desired effeCt. The Corn-
: mandant, after a short consultation with his Of.
fivers, agreed to surrender .by capitulation to his
own Prisoner ; and on the , Bth of March the Bri-
tish Troops landed, and obtained possession of the
Island, without a 'single shot being fired an either
side.

Lieut. PICKFORD, of the inconstant Frigate, who
brought the account of
.the re-taking of Gorec,
promoted to the rank of Commander.
We understand the GOVERNOR-GENERAL has
added two Regiments, to the Company's Establish_
ment .at Be.ngai. The Marine Battalion of that Pre-
sidency is established as the 21st Regiment of Na.,
tive Infantry ; and the whole Establishment is now •
to consist of zz Battalions. An additional Regi.
merit has also been established at Bombay.
