Yefterday Count Paa‘rsc, High Chamberlain to
the Emperor of RUSSIA, arrived in town on a hketial
Newts to our Government. He came with the packets
which brought the Mails. three of which arrived yel.
terday afternoon from Got tenburgh, and landed
at Harwich, whence he polled to London with the
utmoil difpatch, accompanied by a Courier. Oa bit
arrival lan night, he waited on Count Wozonzow,
the Ruffian Ambairador, who accompanied him ins-
mediAtely to the Minifter, with whom they were do-
feted for fc.nre time.

The reported defeat of the Archduke Climes in
Italy, does not gain, nor feems to deferve any emit
in the bell informed circles. On the contrary, letters
front moll refpeaable perfons, both at the Hague
and Rotterdam, of very late dates, were produced in
the city yetlerdgy, which reprefented that able Com•
wander as having fo greatly handled the army of
General Masser♦ in his fkilful marazuvres, as to
oblige him to evacuate Aiwa' advantageous pvfitions
which he had gained. Thcfe accounts are dated from
the Archduke's army as late .Its the 3d of November.

BRITISH SQUADRON OFF tOULOGNE.

By our letters of yellerday, dated from Dover, it
appears, that the attempt to burn the ilotiLia in Bou-
logne, under the aufpices of Sir Sumac Soren, has
not yet taken place. We underhand that the plan is,
to make the experiment by throwing in a great quad►
tity of the combuilible arrows invented by Col. Co■
GEAVE. They can be difcharged fo as ta ,fall at the
dittance of 2 too feet. If they fall upon :he deck of
a Chip, they fallen themfelses in it, and finally elt•
plode, penetrating with great fnrce. It is expated

they will be able to fet any veffel on fire by Means et
the inflammable fluff they contain. It has been rtr
ported, too, that fire (hips and carcafes would be feat
in among the enemy at the fame time. The French
rails moored on the confide cf the harbour of Bou-
logne, are fuppofed to be for the defence of the en-
trance of the harbour. The enemy teem to have bees
aware that an attack was to be made.
We underftand that the number of troops at 8011.
logne at prefent exceeds 8000. Not long ago Ge-
neral Mooas accompanied Sir SIDNEY SMITH on 2
furvey of the Frerich coati at Boulogne. They went
as near as was poflible. It was then the opinion of
General Mooas that the works could not be attacked
with any chance of fuccefs, with lets than 30,000
men. Upon this the prefent attack, on a reduced
fcale, is Paid to have been undertaken.
If it be true, however, that the attack upon Bon.
logne, condu6ed upon principles worthy of a mili-
tary nation, could have had a reafonable chance of
fuccefs with 30,000 men, we think it ought to have
been attempted ; eipecially as we know, that a few
weeks ago the whole French land force in that quar-
ter did not exceed 4000 men. We have no doubt
whatever that Sir SYDaaY Soren will accompl:fh every
thing that can be cffeeed with the means with vihtriv
he is entrufted ; but we are not fanguine in our ex,
peftations from what can be done by a naval force
only againfl that harbour. Had a competent num.
ber of troops been employed to land at fame weak
point, and attack the batteries in the rear, more might
have been hoped for. But, perhaps, the whole it
only a feint to diftrie the attention of the enemy.
The following is our Dover Letter, received this
morning :
DOVER, NOVEMBER se.
The Speculator lugger arrived in the Roadt this
morning from off Boulogne; the left our fquadron
at five o'clock laft evening. By her we learn, that
owing to the very unfavourable (late of the weather,
no attack was made on Monday night on the enemy's
flotilla in Boulogne harbour; but it was intended
left night to fend fame carcafes in towards the 111.,re,
to attempt deftroying about thirty large brigs which
the French had moored in a line about half a mile
without the harbour, to protea its entrance prior to
the arrival of our chips. We are without any fur.
ther intelligence, no veffels having arrived fince the
Speculator.
