Thi Right Iron. the Lord Major,

From the above it appears that there was no
foundation for the Report of the Surrender of Sari.
van, no mention of which was made in the Letter of
Lord kiUIIA4T. HOW this mistake arose and became
so genital, we cannot at present ascertain.

Yesterday morning being very Wet, Hts M.
izo-r did not leave tne.Lodge at Windsor, to take
his usual ride.

Admiral COLNWALLIS bas for these seven months
krpt possession of the station he now fills. Pcr.
hales there i& no instance in our Naval Annals at a
Blockade preserved with such diligence and success.

The utmost aaivity continues to prevail on every
part of our coast. The Sea Fencibles at Deal and
Dyver, commanded by Captains ESSINGTON and
FASIAN, were out during the whole of Monday
night, inexrettation that some attempt would be
made by the EneMy, in consequence of our Cruizers
having for the most part been obliged to quit their
station off Boulogne. The night, however, passed
without any hostile demonstration taking place.
On moss parts of our Coast the Volunteers have
been placed on permanent duty. At Plymouth, at
'Vat mJOIII, anti other ports, they are performing
garrison duty with an alacrity, a diligence, and a
discipline, that refl,:di the highest honour upon
them, The Maidstone Volunteers lave been
placed on permanent duty in Maidstone Bar!
. racks. The Rochester are expetted to be sent
to' Dover Castle, •and the Cranbrook to Chatham
Barracks. The River Medway Fencibles have re.
ceived tiders to embank on hoard the ships.fitting
pt Chatham. The 1-lumber has been strengthened
by some new batteries; and the ballast lighters in
the 11,imber are 'each to have a carronadet and to be
omitted by Om Sea Fencibles,
