Last night We received Puris Papers to the 4th 1
init. They contain a curions account, at an achieve-
ment which seems' to have been most gallantly and
.-, skilfully' performed by two of our frigates. The
illoniteur evidently endeavours. to conceal, or at•
loot to colours the fa4s of the case; we shall there..
tore most anxiously wait for the official details. We
strongly suspea that the Trench very much under.,
rate their loss upon this occasion. ..
The Itloniteur contains another ludicrom account
of the tuanceuvres of the Toulon fleet, which now;
with unparalleled boldness, frequently sails to the
mouth of the harbour, and—back again'.

The persevering hostility of the American Go-
vernment towards this country has at length forced
:14 Misters to ha' e recourse to measures of retaliation,
which, we think; are more likely to prove effeetual
than the system of concession and conciliation which,:.
we have hitherto pursued. It was determined, we
uliderstand, at a Council held yesterday by the
l'Aukte Ithatist-r, to isque an Order of pro-
btbitalg the entrance of A.merican vessels into Briti,h
'Ports, except those laden with wheat or flour, which
vessels are also to carry back a freight of the pro-
duce of this country or her colonies. This regula-
siOn will be severely felf,in America; but if therGo--

vet-lament of that country, under the cloak of nen• tl
trolitv, is determined to at the part of an auxiliary
to one of the Belligerents, it
sroust expo l retaliatory
measureSfroM the other.
We have long been of opinion that the French
• party in America, which has unfortunately obtained
such' an influence in the Gutertunent, was tletet.;'
mined to plunge that country into a war with Great
Britain. Tile unexampled forbearance of our Ca-
binet has 11.11i1Vill) trustreted their plans,- ,We haye
seen that concession on our part. has only'proyoked

fresh ag4ression, and lusuit 3 It now remains to be}
ac rtaiue.i what will be the offeci of measurasora
vgauro.witOrotts nature, litho Amnion Legiiliaure,
ettsr Airikiattriet exposure of the disposition and
obiiects of the American itecutive, shall co-itinue
to support it,, welaar that a will be impossible 'that
any imuicable velatiuns between the two countries
oin be maintained but if a Contest 61101liti ensue,
the leopethiiblllty will rest solely upon the American
Governitieni.

Vvry, ersoneous notions haystAteen entertained on
the 6,14j0a of the prods-
,of the Marshal of the Ad-
uiiralty. This vOice, in time of peace, is not worth
mote than about 2001, per annum. In the course
the late and present vista, the lees appear to have
amounted to prom eta 40(10 per annum, 'until about
the•year 1806., when, in Consequence of the deci-
eion.of Sir WILUIAM Stori*, in the'case of Rends-
berg, (vide 6th Robinson's Reports), they were con-
siderably reduced, and are stated to have amounted
in that and the following year only to about i Anol. each

year; ,in i eua, to about 106°1. in 11109, to.100i.;
and Irons the state of the war, are tint likely to have
beeutti uch augmented since that litnu. The office tnay
a.vciuirts regulation ; and it is probable that in what-
ever hands it tray be placed, it wilt be made subject
to such regulations as may be deemed expedient by
• P.irliament, or other competent authority. The
'Marshal has a Deputy, but the duties of the office
have invariably been Teri-orates' by the Principal,
who attended all executions,wberi sentence of death
tads pronounced in the Admiralty Court ; he also
preceded the Judge, bearing the mace, at the Ad-
. ;Virally Sessions.

Such being itilivally the state orate case, we leave
it to the writer in the Morning Chronicle to siva his
own explatiatiott of his motives for the insertion, in
OA Paper of yesterday, of so gross a misrepresen-
tation respeaing the OfOce of Marshal of the Acl-
tuiralty.
