TO HIS 1111111 ITT 1—
" Sill—Captain l'Hermitte, Commandant of one

Pent home thehrig Surveillant with difpatches, which
I have the honour to lay before your Majelly.
" On the Id of April the divifinn had taken 21
' trtglith veltels upon the coati of Africa, amounting
to 5976 tons. They carried upon the whole 229
pieces of cannon, carronades, howitzers, &c. Their
crews, &c. amounting to ssB men, have been madi
prifoners. One thoufand one hundred and thirty•
tour negroes have alfu been captured in there vet Tels,
and among thefe prizes, four that were laden with
dry goods have been fold for fix hundred and fizty•
nine thoufand francs.
" Three nut of the feventeen prizes that remain,
have been armed. and now make a part of our divi-
fon, viz :—the Favourite. of :II Tons, 6 pounders,
.`
'• and . t carronades of twelve; the Otway, 014 guns,
pp,
it-pounders, and two carronades of eighteens; and
the Plower., of st guns, &pounders.
" Five of there prizes have been difpatched as
flags of truce. The Trio, one of them, has arrivrd
at Morlaiz ; two have been fold for the convenience
of the dialling, end have produced 80,000 piakres ;
and (even hare been funk, burnt, or detiroyed.
" Out of the one thoufand one hundred and thirty
four negroes, ninety.two have been given away or
fold, or have deferred, or arc dead.
" The reft of the negrues are dittributed through
the divifinn, and remained alive on the sth of April.
At this period, Captain I'Hermitte retained only
thirty four out of the five hundred and eighteen pri•
Utters he had made ; the remainder of them having
been fent away in flags of truce. Twenty.three only
have been left on board the prizes—one only is dead.
"This Officer informs me, that he has infpeifted
every•point of the costa which he has run down with
the greatell attention, and that he has occalioned a
very great lls to the Engliffi Commerce—the enemy's
Made, he Pays, is ruined for the prefent year; and,
in the courfe of the fucceeding year, he fuppofes
their lofs will be confiderable.
" The velfels of the divifion were in very good
condition.
" M. PHermitte Meeks very highly of the condu&
of his Officers and their crews—fince hi, departure
from L'Orient he has loft no more than fifteen men,
and he had only fourteen tick.

thorities took the oath of allegiance to his Majefty.
On Wednefday the French ettacked Civittlla del I
Front°, a poll occupied by the troops of the former
King, under the command of an frill Officer. The
town was carried by allault. The French troops
prepared to undermine the fort, for the purpofe of
blowing it up, but fortunately the effufion of
blood has been faved. The garrifon, compofed of
two hundred men, furrendered at difiretion. The
fort is not confiderable, but the pofition is very corn-
mandiog.
MILAN, JUNE Z.—The Second Lieutenant of the
Artillery of the Italian Maine has written to the Mi.
filer of War and Marine, that on the sth of May,
with his divition, confifling of the chebeck Henrici,
and three gun boats, he engaged, in the Strait of
Ban:a, a Ruffian fquadron, tiationed there to inter.
cept any provtfions dettined for the *Sand of Letina,
which was blockaded. _ _

The enemy's divifion confified of a brig and three
other veffels, well armed.
At ter. in the morning he began the attack. The
enemy teemed to defpife his inferior force, but when
they appeared in line at a (bort dillance. he gave or.
ders to his little fquadrnn to open their fire, which
was fo fuccefsfully executed, that after a warm anion
of two hours. the Ruffian veiTels were obliged to
make off. They would have even fallen into our poi
feffion, if the calm had not been followed by .a breeze
from the north. which proved favourable to them,
and by taking advantage of it, with the help of
theit fails and oars, and affilled by towing. they got
under proteition of a Ruffian 74 gun Ihip, which was
blockading the ifland. )4. Stalimini purfued them
almoft within reach of her guns ; he then tacked
ab,•at, and fleeted fpr Milne, where he conduified
the Italian convoy of guns, ammunition, provifions,
and troops' under his potation with which. at five
o'clock the fatpe evening, be anchored at the illand
of Lana. •

The enemy was afraid to appear in the Baiza chan-
nel, to oppofe the paffage of the tranfports. -
The Officers, foldiers, and tailors did their duty
and the Serjeaut of the Marine Artillery particularly
dillinguithed himfelf on this oecalion.
Racuse, MAY 28.—General Lauriflon, Aid-de-
camp of his Majefly the Emperor and King, who left
Spalatru at the head of 6000 men, took poffeffion of
our town on the =6th of May. The inhabitants re-
ceived with joy this proteaing. force, which fecures
them againlt the ineurfions with which they were
threatened by the Montenegrins.—Moniteur, yam 19.
CONSTANTINOPLE, MAY t 2.--TheTurkillt Govern
ment is bully employed in the equipment of from
thirty to forty fhips, among which are ten of the line
of different fiats. It was aril intended to equip only
feven. Thi fleet will be ready for tea the end of the
month : the troops that are to he embarked on board
the froadron, are daily exercited, and trained accor-
ding to the new fyllem.
The Grand Vizier is now employed in putting In
motion a great number of troops, which have alto
been trained and difciplined in the Eut opean manner.
They are ri• form 'a corps de referve in the rear of
the army, whith'' is to march into Servia against the
rebels.—Mewitear, 71,11 e 19.
SWIDISN PONIRANIA, JUNK 7....*lrefferdAy another
battalion of the regiment of Calmar entered Strallind.
The number of our Commercial Agents, at prelim,
employed in great &kaki and Inland, is not kb than
Sopbx. , .1

Ewan, Juts tnglifh have toad. de. '
(cents upon our coatis. As may naturally be fur
poled, theft are merely the excurfions of a few pa-
trules. The weaknets of the Enghlh army allows them
to do nothing mare. They can ted off Tome cattle and
burnt two or three farm hnufes—a moft eniferable
kind of decollation, lust which fufficiently thews the
date, of war in which the Englilh and Pruffians are
engaged.
General Blather has been fo negligent as to (offer
this damage to be committed, although he has a
conadoroble force under his command. But he keeps
it con clantly in the neighbourhood of Cleves and
Berg. He has received orders on the ruble& from
his Government, and it is probable that the Englilh
will make no more defeents.
Meanwhile the communications between Pruffia
and England continue to exifl. M. de Jacobi is Rill
at London. Pruilla does not with war—and England
makes it—a fituation extraordinary enough. The
Baltic Rill remains free. PruMa has not !hut her
ports there againft the Englith, and the latter commit
no hoßilities in that fea.—Mertimw, June 19.
Juts to.—We are now sabred, that the anfwer
brought from London by the Courier, M. Brugge-
mann, has induced our Monarch to form his ultimate
refolution, with which another Courier has been MC
patched to London. It now depends entirely on the
Brit& Government, whether his Majeßy's inten-
tions, which are adapted to exiling ctrcumflanses,
(hall be carried into execution. The anfwer erpeeed
will elf° determine whether Baron Jacobi will quit
London immediately, he having received orders for
that purpofe, fhould events render that Rep inevi-
table.
A Ruffian Courier has alto arrived here from St.
Peterfburgh : he has proceeded in great bane for
London. According to report, he is the bearer of a
letter to the Prince of Wales, written by the Empe-
ror Alexander's own hand.

Vieux A, June 2.—We now know for certain, that
two thoufand of our troops have entered Cattaro,
which had been previoully evacuated by the Ruffians.
The place was afterwards furrendered to the French,
agreeably to the treaty of Prefburgh.
Every thing that has been faid in the Foreign Jou-
rnals of new engagements forming by Auftria, is en
tirely deflitute of foundation. All the meafures and
difpolitions cf our Court tend to peace. The only
difficulty which remained, is now removed by the
evacuation of Cattaro.

From the frontiers of Turkey they write, that the
chief part of the Servian army had left the Banks of
the Drina, and had laid dote liege to Belgrade.—
They have crated three batteries, from which they
greatly annoy the garrifon. The Turks made a fally
to deßroy one of there, but the attempt failed. T 0
judge from the ardour of the air:titan's and the wants
of the garrifon, it cannot be expetied to hold out long.
The Board of Finance has ordered a farther fain
of money to be applied in the redemption and extinc-
tion of a quantity of the Rate paper.
Just 4.—The laft letters from Trick Rate, that
three days before the departure of the pot, General
Bellegarde, and the Auftrian Marine Commandant,
Lepin, bad failed to Cattaro, to receive that place
from the Ruffians.

They write from St. Petertburgh, that Count Ra-
fornowlky is recalled from Vienna, and Prince Ku.
rakin appointed to fucceed him. Count RafomovrOty
however, as not to return to St. Peter(burgh, but to
remain at Vienna as a private individual.
Before the Emperor fet out for Luxemburg, be
gave a public audience, at which Baron Thugut was
pretest.
The French Ambatrador, M. le Rochefnucault,
has taken a country feat near Enzendortf.

Just s.—Count Metternich, appointed Ambaffa•
dor to France, will fet out for Pans the 18th of this
month. M. Count Rafumow(ky, Ambaffador of Rut-
fia, having silted and obtained his recall, is prepar-
ing to leave Vienna. Prince Kurakin, his fucceffor,
will ilsorsly be here.

CROWITAPT, Just 6.—Yeiterday a Ruffian Cabi•
net Courier paired through our town coming from
Vienna and going to Parrs. Alfo a Turkith Courier
in the fame direlition.—Maritear, joie 17.

Fans. TN! MAIM, Juas so.--According to let-
ters from the coaft of Italy, the French are extremely
alive at Toulon and Genoa, in fitting out a flotilll
for the purpofe of covering the army In its !mirage
from Naples to Sicily. Molt of the Englifis in that
ifland are encamped in the neighbourhood of Meffna,
and an Engltih fquadren, confifling of revere) fri-
gates and gun boats, continue eruiztng off the cnaft
of Naples. Since Marflial Maffena has been before
Gaeta in perfon, the befieging army has been confi-
derably increafed.

which he has tranfmitted to him a few days ago.

A tic sluao, Just 6.—The fituation of the French
troops its Suabia, Bavaria, and Franconia, has not
yet undergone the leaft alteration; and even the
Auflrian prifoners remain cagily where the orders
for their halt overtook them.

FRANIMIT, JUIII 7.—Yenerday, a part of M.
Augereau's Corps was paid out of a portion of the

H*MauaGH, JUNI 13 —The PrufGan Court con-
tinues its •negociations with Sweden and England ;
but without affording either more or lets hope of the
reftor.ation of peace between any of the powers at
war. The IA news we received from Bavaria leaves
us nil in uncertainty with refpeil to the evacuation
tif• Cilmany by the botch mops.
