SICILr.

PALERMO, JUNE 17.

The Thames, Captain Napier, has destroyed a
fort of some consequence on the coast of Calabria.
Captain Napier so boldly anchored his ship within
pistol-shot, that it surrendered without loss, as the
men deserted, leaving only the officer to make the
capitulation, who wished it should not be de.troyed,
lest he might thereby incur the displeasure of Murat.
The flag of truce which Admiral Freemintle sent
to Naples was not suffered to have the least commu-
nication with the shore. Murat had previously gone
to the frontiers of France with his quota of troops.
The prospect of harvest in Sicily it so abundant, that,
corn is reduced ene fifth. Every thing here is quiet
as to politics, though there is a desire to send the,
old Queen out of the way. The Sicilian Parliament
has met : it is stid a proposition will soon come un-
der discussion to mould the Sicilian Const‘totion

circumstances of the country will, admit of it.

The Menelaus got so near to the French Ajax, .74k

as to exchange broadsides, when the Menelaus' main-
mast was badly wounded,' and her hull and rigging

JUNE 23.—The British Government has proposed.,
with the permission of the Sicilian, to raise a loan in
Sicily, for one year certain, or to be renewed for the
next with the consent of the lender, at an interest of
seven per cent. Re-payment to be made in Sicily,
IMaltat or England, at the option of the leader.—
Whoever wishes to receive his money at the end of
the first year is to give notice of that intention at the
expiration of the first eight months, and in like man-
ner four months before the end of the second year ;
and if such notice be not given, the loan is to be con-
sidered as-renewed. The interest to be paid twice
a-year, the first payment to be made on the 30th De-
cember nest, Those who wish to csuitribute to this
loan are to apply to the Commissary-General, Berg-
man, whO will furnish them withreeeipts, which will
be trAusfersibl.e.

RUSSIANS.
The accounts received by GoVeturnent &en the
Baltic, (to which we alluded on Saturday) were in
the form of despatches from Admiral Meaux, dated
off Riga, on the 17th ultimo. They states that the
three successful actions in which the French were re-
pulsed, were fought on the 11th; 12th, and 13th ult.
The French attacks were said to have been shade upon
the Russian tetu-duliont, which defend the passage of ‘,
the Dwina, and the assailants are said to have lost
1100 men. If the report of the same evetits which
reached Gottenburgh, were received through a chan-1
nel different from that which conveyed Admiral
MAarnes despatc h, we are strongly inclined to be- It
lieve the original account to be correct. From the t
subjoined Russian Bulletin, It appears that it is at
their entrenched camp at Drissa, or rather Driema,
a town situated at the confluence of the Dwina and
the Driesna, that the Russians intend to Make their
great stand.
Dunaburg Where the? have another entrenched
camp, is farther down the Dwina. We are unable
to state precisely, the situation of Prince BAGRATION'S
army—the French boast of having driven him across
the Beryathenes, bat yob have no dottbt, that be will
again make his appearance to the. 'Mow, as he has
been ordered to attack the enemy. The French have
entered Mittati, where they found some cannon : the
nextenterprite of that division of their army, which
is commanded, we believe, by MACDONALD, will be
Riga. Some of the letters mention that an action had
been fought at Mittau ; but we are inclined to think.
that the Russians had, as usual, evacuated it on the
approach of the enemy. In the letters from Peters-
burgh, the Russian force is estimated at 495,000.
We fear that this is an exaggeration.

RUSSIAN BULLETIN.

." Head-Quarters, Janitschy, June VI, 0. S. (July 9.)

" AU the corps cf the first army have already
joined, and retire tomorrow to the fortified camp at
Drissa, on the Dwina. Our troops have borne the
difficulties attendent on marching with the patience
peculiar to them. The enemy has been disappointed
in his endeavours to cut off any of the corps which
form the first army, as well as in his attempt to sur-
round our right wing. The principal force of the
enemy is at present directed against our left, in order
to place themselves between the first and second
army. Prince Bagration has received orders to at-
tack the enemy's corps opposed to him. Move-
ments have been made in the first. army to this ef-
fect.—Since the trifling skirmishes at the passage of
the Disna, our rear-guard has not had any serious at-
tack to repel."

left Cadiz on the 18th ult. we learn that an unsuc-
cessful attempt has been made by the boats of the
TUSCAN and ENCOUNTER to CUt out some vessels from
St. Lucar, when, from insuperable obstacles, which
no degree of bravery could overcome, only one ves-
sel (a boat without 4uns) was captured, whilst the
ENCOUNTER, Lieut. '1 AL.BOT, was taken by the enemy,
first Lieutenant of the TUSCAN badly wounded, and
about 55 men killed and wounded. Lieut. Taimyr,
and his surviving officers and crew, had been ex-
changed. The ALFRED, 74 guns, Captain Howrou,
sailed from Cadiz on the 11th ultimo, and has since
arrived in the Downs, with two Spanish vessels under
convoy. _

A letter, dated the 50th tilt. from an Officer be-
longing to the squadron under Sir H. Popham, gives
the following account of the result of an attack upon
Santander :•••11 On the 22d and 24th they got some
guns upon a rock, without musket-shot of a four-gun
battery. The ships then went against it. The Rhin
got one man killed, one severely wounded, and two
slightly.' The Insolent had two killed and two
wounded. The Venerable had her maintop-mast shot
through. A party of men from the Rhin succeeded,
in planting two 24-pounders upon the rock, and play-
ed upon the batteries. By the 27th, two of the ene-
my's glans were disabled; and General Porlier having
sent forward his advanced guard, it was With
80 men from the Medusa and Venerable. With this
force the General was to attack the town in the rear,
while the Rhin in the front, with two other frigates
and three brigs, passed the battery, and kept up a
heavy fire, without a single shot received on our part.
The enemy ran, and Sir G. Collier, thinking that
General Porlier was attacking the town, led into its
front, but was beat back. The French had received
reinforcements ; they were stated at 800, but they
proved to be in fact 4000. We are sorry to state,
that Sir G. Collier, and Captains Lake and Malcolm
were wounded in this affair."
