HARWICH, DECEMBER so.

The Beaufoy packet, Capt. Noattis, is arrived in
a very short passage of culy 70 hours from Gotten.;
burgh; but hringi nothing in adaition to what we
already knew from the Armies, no Russian
senger haring arrived at tizockholrn since the of e
which was the bearer of the brave Kurusores Vic
ries, on the 17th and IStik ult. It is semewlat sirs
gular, that a similar report >houl¢ be prevalent in
that capital to the one lately received from Paris;
namely, that the Tyrant has fallen under the errspe-
ra;ed band of one of his own Generals ; not 13xtt-
TIIIER, as vas formerly asserted, but Day-over.—
Mats the Messenger has come by this conveyance,
the bearer of Dispatches from Mr. TilontaTox, At
Stockholm. The Beaufoy brings fifteen passengers.
A convoy of sixteen sail, homeward-bound, put to
sea the same day as the packet, under the direction
of his Majesty's ship EREBUS.
The Lord Nelson, DEANE, has also some in from
Heligoland, in thirty-six hours • she does not Sting
any news, the communication with the Continent
being, if possible, more completely closed than ever,
and such is the dastardly state of subjection in which
the unhappy Dutch allow themselves to be kept by
a few French Douanniers, that there is nut a single
purchaser to be found for the article of coffee, which
they might buy there for sd. per pound, and sell on
the opposite shore for as many shillings. The Ma.
labar transport, one of those under convoy of the
SUCCESS and FREYA frigates, with French prisoners on
board, has come into harbour with the loss of her
rudder, anchor, and cable. The LORD DuicAN,
Captain HAMILTON, is detained for a Messenger.
Three other packets bound to Gottenburgh and He-
ligoland, are prevented from sailing by contrary
winds.—Wind E. blowing strong.
YARMOUTH, DECEMBER 20.
During these last four days we have had a eunti.
nued gale from the E.S.E. attended with snow, and
of course all communication betweed-ships in the
roads and shore has bet% suspended. Sat drclay, the
gale being moderate; sailed the WATCHFUL tender,
for Hull, and arrived the RANGER cutter.—Remain
the SOLEBAY, DESIREE, STARLING, ind BEAVER sloops
of war.—Wind E.S.E.
Yesterday morning a Gorlestone yawl, with eight
men, went out to some of the ships in the Roads, and
in returning for the Pier, it unfortunately upset; by
which melancholy circumstance they all met a watery
grave, except one man, who reached the shore. One
of their companions standing on the pier threw them
a rope, and being entangled with it, fell from off the
pier, and was drowned. They have all left families.
