FRENCH FRIGATE CAPTURED.
Jut as the Mail was leaving Plymouth a French
frigate, le Prefident, arrived there, captured by Ad-
miral Louis's fquadron. The particulars of the
capture "were not accurately known, but it was un-
derhand Ihe was on her vuyage home from the coati
of Africa, where the had been with anqther frigate,
faid to be the Regolus.-,-She was captured on Sun-
day LIR after a chace of 33 hours. The•Dtrratclt

After our raw was at Preis, an OfEcer arrived
at the Admiralty with difpatches from Commodore
Sir SAMUIL Hoop, containing the plc:ding intelli.
gence of his having captured Four French Frigates
off Rochefort, full of Troops, fuppofed to have been

that Sir Ssmu al. Hoots has loft his right arm.
A confirmation has alio been receivc4 at the Ad-
miralty of the capture of le Prefident above mention.

FOREIGN JOURNALS.
In the preceding columns we have given flame far.,
they intereffing earaas from the papers received by
the Mail of yefterday. Among there is a copy of
the Circular Letter which was tranfmitted to the
Ruffian Foreign Miniffers,. for the purpofe of being
communicated to the different Courts to Which they
were appointed. Refpeaing the motives of Roma, for
entering into a negotiation with France, the Circular
Letter is more explicit than the account which has
appeared in the St.Peterfiuro Gast*. One important
point is afcertained fr• m ii, that thy negotiation was
not of the Emperor Atsxemnses theking. The fire
overture came from the French Conful refident at St.
Peterfburgh, in ennfequence of which D'Quait rt. was
lent to Paris, with inftruaions to treat upon a bath
qiiite differen t..im that upon which he concluded his
Treaty with General C . We are glad to find,
that his linpetial Majesty does not appear to have
deviated, for a fincle Indent, from the magnanimous
and liberal prii.ciples upon which he has always ex.
preffed his difp Anion to interfere for the Continent.
Letters received yetterday from Embden mention
that Peuffft intends to place forty thoufand men at
the dills. fsi of the Prince of Orange. We trult that
this will not be the only force with which that Prince
may make an effort to emancipate his country from
the domittim of the upflart who has been impofed
upon it. Broken and difpirited as Holland mat- be,
there Rill exalts fufEcient energy in it to rife againft
the opprefficn under which it groans, open the lean
erobabibty of ultimate fuccefs. The French talk of
le. ving eighty thoulandmen to proton Holland ; bet
we trust the courfe of the military operations in other
quarters will not leave one half of this force at their
difpirfal. The corps under the Prirke of Orange
