Extract of a letter from an officer on board the
Narcissus, dated off Nantz, October 1.5:
" We are here blockading two French frigatis, which are'
moored at, the entrance of the River, ready to takiadvantage of
the first dark night, or any other favourable opptitunity to slip,
out. Four Portuguese Captains of merchantmen, who were
Imprisoned at Nantz, have made their escape to our ship : by
them we learn that the frigates are bound to Martinique, laden
with flour, and have six months provisions on board. Their
crews consist chiefly of Americans.
" Our boats are continually employed In the pursuit of chaise
inarees and other small craft.—Mr. Ogilvie, with the Captain's
boa:, has taken four of them, laden with brandy and wine; but
as they will not pay the expenre of condemnation, we shall de-
stroy them for firewood."

Dnua' :4ANE.—Yesterday evening gg The Siege of
St. Quintin" was repeated, for the third time, with fa-
vourable auspices : all thelVeiformers did justice to
their respective parts ; and, from the patriotic senti-
ments, as well as the adventitious aid of splendid
scenery and music with which the whole abounds,
the drama will probably continue a lasting favourite.'
KING'S THEATRE, HAYaIARKET.—The new grand
Mele.Drama of " The Exile" was performed, for the
fourth time, last night, with increased applause, by'
a most brilliant audience.—This interesting piece is
greatly aided by the splendid and correct manner in
which it is produced, the whole of which has been
under the direction of Mr. FARLuv, and certainly does
him infinite credit.
