NAPI.RS, OCT. tB.—For some days several ene-
my's ships, and among them sotne scorridors, hare
been cruizing within sight of our coast, fur the
purpose of surprising some fishing-boats,, .or at-
tempting some other similar important enterpriza.
On the i4ilrinst. two or three scorridors approached
the solitary road of Ilagnioli, arid under cover of the
night disembarked some soldiers, who found two
empty carriages, and two coachmen, upon the
shoulders of whom they exercist.d all their valour.
In these tsVo coaches had arrived someagents'ef
hortli,"and penple emphsyed in the customs, wbo
if set out a few' minutes before for Nisita, in order
to receive the.depositions of the crews of two yes-
Sets 'pericirming quhi-a wine there,. and wh;cti; agree-
ably to the orders. of his Majesty, Must.'and had
been arrested for having false papers. These ern-
,
pinyCs-were.very near falling into the power of the
English. ,
.Nevertheless, fortune, which always, in a simi-
lar manner, seems 0 second the great to well as
small continental expeditions of the English, Ayould
not have it thus ;• the orders of the King were ex-
ecuted, and both crews were transferred, with the
requisite precautions of health, to a place of greater
stculny.

The two poor coachmen alone sustained the shock
and impetuosity of this great expedition.,

OCT. 1 t)...-WO learn from Portici, that his Ma-
jesty this morning went to Castellamare to insped
the naval construaions upon which they are work-
ing in that dock-yard, as well as those of Naples.
CovElattAoart, Nov. 2.—. The tempest which
arose in the East, and which continued without in-

termissionlrom the 25th of last month to the day
before yesterday, has caused many disa,ters at
sea; A ship which was in the canal, was thrown
upon, and dashed to pieces against the walls. -There

is every reason for fearing that the convoy which
recently passed the Belt has suffered considerably.
A.ccoidingly to all appearanees, the greater part of
the ships which con posed it, must have been driven
upon the coats of Mecklenburg, pornerania, and
Prussia: where the wind raged with the greatest
violence. '
Some sailors sayrthat on the 27Th 94lober, they
saw an English frigate dismasted pdss, which with
difficulty stood to the Southward.
