We have received Paris Journals to the 23d, and
Dutch to the 213th ult. Their contents are not very
important.

After the (Acid notification yeflerday of the arri-
val of the Combined fleet at Cadiz, it was confidently
reported, as we (Fated in part of our impreflion fail
night, that the enemy had failed again on the 2 ift
ult. the day after they went in. We do not find,
however, that this has been accurately afcertained.
They would doubtlefs endeavour to avail themfelves
of the firfl opportunity to put to fea with the Spanifh
(hips, about five or fix (hips of the line, but it is
hoped Sir Rom lIIT CALRIII might arrive off Cadiz iu
time to prevent them.
It was a fortunate circumftance that theEuRYALUS,
which brought home Admiral Cozzinowoon's dif-
patches, fell in with Sir Robert CALDER'S fleet, as
that gallant Admiral might otherwife have remained
for fome time ignorant of the courfe the enemy bad
followed.

The EURYALUS frigate failed from Li(bon on a
' cruise, and direetcd her courfe to the Northward.—
She fell in with the IRIS, who gave her the informa-
tion that (he had been chafed by the advanced fqua-
dron of the Combined fleet. The EuRY/lt.us then al-
tered her courfe and made all fail to apprize Admi-
ral CoLtatiowoon of the enemy's approach. She
fell in with the Didon frigate that had been captured
by the PHOENIX, which had her in tow. She alfo
had been chafed by the time fquadron, and we are
glad to think that no apprehention of their capture
will now remain. • On the t9th the EuarAtus face
the enemy (leering E.S.E. and was chafed by• a fri-
gate and a line of battle (hip. She found it impoffible
to get between the enemy and the (bore. Forta-
n,,tely the morning of the soth was very fine, fo that
At fix o'clock they were perceived by Admiral Got.-
xteo woon's fetadron, who thus had the firß notice
of their approach. Eleven fail of the enemy then
gave chace. Admiral COLLINGWOOD made fignals
for the Maas and AcHILLL to reconnoitre them.--
Thefe two (hips hove to under their top-fails, when
the enemy immediately left off chace. They were
within gun (hot of the Thunder bomb, but did not
Ifire at her, or (he mufk have been taken. The enemy
then went into Cadiz without making any farther
effort. On the 224 the EURYALUS left Admiral COL-
LINCWOOD off the port of Cacli7., and on the 24th the
fell in with Sir R. Cae,Dia, as abovernentioned.
In two'ays from the time Sir R. CALDER was
fteisl by. the EDI/VALVE, he would join Admiral Cos-
t. I N owoon ; and anlefs the enemy failed in the inter-
vening day:, between the ssd and sfith, they would
be effetqually blockaded. Admiral CALDER had eigh-
teen fail of the line and two frigates; Adm. COLLING.
WOOD had four fail of the line; Sir R. BICKERTON, with
four fail of the line, was lying behind the Rock of Gi-
braltar. The NIGER had been difpatched to give
him information of what had taken place. Admiral
CALDER would therefore have under l.is command no
lefs than twenty-fix fail of the line, four fs ;gates, and
a bomb.

The Car thagena fleet according to the lail accounts,
was in port. It confills of fix or feven fail cf the line.
Sirß.Bicztirrov's fquadron is four not fiz fail of the
line, and in the fist inflance he will probably join
the fleet off Cadiz.

It is flared that the Rochefort fquadron touched
at Vigo, looking for the Combined fleets, but finding
them gone, went awa.; We doubt this intelligence.
The Rochefort fquadron, we apprehend, is at fea,
and never intended to join VILLSNEUVE. If any
danger yet remains to our homeward comoys, it is
from this fquadron. All fears of M. VILLEN alms
are now over; but the alarm for fome days has no;
been inconfiderable.

The (hip taken on her paffage from the Weft In-
dies by the GOLIAH, as mentioned in our Plymouth
letter yellerday, has tince arrived at that port. She
turns nut to be (not le Department de Lunde, as &ft
reported but) le Torche, a French corvette. She is
a fine (hip, of the fame defcription as the Bacchante,
now in our fcrvice. Her crew confilled of zoo men,
and She had on board sz 4 the late Blanche's fea-
men, &r. Le Torche was one of a fquidron, bound
Iron Martinique to any port they conid make in
France. This was the fquadron which captured the
BLANCHE. - At the time le Torche was taken there
were three of the enemy's vellels in fight, and had
not night come on, the Gotta,' and Itaisonasts
would have captured another. La Topaze was one
of the (hips that efcaped. The gallant Capt. MIMICS
of the BLANCHI and all his Officers are on board that
veffel, and were all well, except the Lieutenant of
Marines, who was feverely wounded in the aftlon.by
a Splinter.

Our Readers will recoiled that le Faune, one of
the fame French fquadron, was lately captured by
the Carat E.t.a. We have thus got pollifflon of two
of the velFels that were engaged with the BLANCHE,
and we are not without hopes that we may yet hear
good accounts of fome more of them, as we have
many (hips of ion cruixing at this moment on the
enemy's coaft. .• ••
