LONDON, MARCH. z 6, 1804.

THE Expedition destined to close up the mouth
of one of the Enemy's Harbours, sailed on Friday
from Dungeness. It ce4tainly is not intended against
Botilogne ; it has been .stated, and we believe cor_
reEtly, that the objea is to block up Havre-
de-Grace. The Force colleEted in that Harbour
is not very great, but it is situated very conveni.
ently for an attack upon Jersey or Guernsey. A
division of the Rifle Corps, and a strong detach.
ment of the 52d, have embarked on board the
Squadron, with the view, it is said, of storming
the Batteries at the Mouth of the Harbour. It

is not, however, very probable that so small a
Force would be employed for such a purpose ; it is
more likely that they are to aft as Marines, in case
any attempt should be made by _the Enemy to board
our Vessels while the plan is carrying into execution.
The weather has not, however, been favourable for
this attempt ; the wind on Saturday night and yes.
terday was S. E. and so high, that we are appre-
hensive it would endanger the safety of old vessels
deeply laden with stone.
The movements that have taken place within the
last two or three days, indicate, at last, a disposi-
tion on the part of the Enemy, to make the long
threatened attempt : near ISO of their largest Gun_
vessels have come out, and anchored in the Roads,
but they have at the same time taken care not
to advance beyond the prote6tion of their batteries.
The weather has, however, been much too tem-
pestuous for them to put to sea, if that was really
their intention.
