HULL, DEC. 2.

The Bill arrived lafl night from Peter !burgh, which
The left on the 4th ult. During her flay in Heßing-
burg Roads, the Neva had alto got Cafe down, and
we expe& would proceed with the London convoy.
During the fleet's flay at Hellingburg, a neutral
arrived there from Riga, with letters for Mr. Cuts-
rttricsi from his houft at Riga, informing him, that
an embargo was laid on at the Ruffian ports on the
12th November, after three ,days notice had been
given of it by the Government : only one Culp from
London was at Riga. We have not heard of any
trips being embargoed at Peterfburgh.
THE BALTIC.

txtraa rf a letter from Captain Feast", of his
istlj'eay's (hip Vanguard, dated Copenhagen Roads,
November 19, to Lord GAMSIPS, received at the
Admiralty the zd of December, and transmitted to
LLOYD'S :
" The Latterly winds which have prevailed for
Come days, have brought down a great nutnber of
merchantmen from St. Peter (burgh and Riga. and
alto many foreign flips, loaded with hemp and (pars,
Ste. for the Engli(h ports. The number now in
Helfingbutg Roads, where the whole is afrembleel,
are about t3o fail, including 12 fill of B.lltic (hips,
which went up under convoy of the Csnnet, hut re.
turned again, as I had forefeen, being ini-tosed that
an embargo was immediately to take place at St.
Peteriburgh, and all the Ruffian ports.
" Upwards of 5o fan of Englifb !hips have arrived
And got file through the grounds, notwithfianding
the conilant attempts of the Danifh privateers and
gun boats, and many large row boats, to intercept
them, even nearly within the guns of tb: Vanguard ;
bUt the vigilance and activity of Capt. Pati.Ltmoas,
in the Belette, who, with the Safeguard and Tygrefs
gun brigs, and Mut-quit() !loop, forms a chain of
communication from Faliterbo to the Middle Ground,
has in a great meafure rendered their attempts abor-
tire ; though I am exceedingly forry to add, that I
underhand Come Englilh yards have been captured
off Ertholm, and two or three to the fnuthward of
Fallierbo, and run on (pore in Kioge Bay, though
attacked by the Tygrefs and Safeguard.
" Captain Ss-liars, of the Cyane, who is at Hel.
fingburg, with the °relies and Snipe, and the ncca-
fional trails that pals down with the !hips as they
arrive, has formed, with the afliitance of the Spi•fire,
Providence, and Hebe, armed (hips, a fcmi-circle
round the fleet al ambled at Helfingbutg.
" The Providence, Captain Byc, has charge of
the Hull (hips, and thole to the north coati of Eng-
land ; and the Spitfire, Captain ELLts of thole
bound up the River Thames and parts Ljacent.—
Confidering, however, that one velfcl is not tuTzient
at this fealon, and with fo large a convoy, to give
them protection, I have thought it abfolotely neeef-
tary to add a gun brig to each, and have direOed
Lieutenant BLOW, of the Charger, to put hintfelf
under the command of the Providence, and Lieut.
CHAWION, of the Snipe, to put Itimalf under the
command of the Spitfire, to proceed with them to
England. 1 have delired Captain STAINIS to fend
off both convoys the moment a favourable opportu-
nity offers, even to make Gottenburgh, where They
could at leaft remain in fafe•y, until an utterly •sind
permitted them to proceed again. I (hall keep my
elation with the 1-4:padre-in directed by my orders till
the laft moment, (should the letting in of the iron
not prevent me) and (hall take charge of the home-
ward bound trade then here.
,s The Fiche armed brig is alto in H:lflngburg
Roads, to remain as long as the weather will permit
her, to collect the !kips for Leith, Liverpool, and the
ttilb Channel, and fee them to the Pentland Frith.
" The Piney and Urgent gun brigs bad both put
. intoGottenburgh, the former having thrown her mor-
tars overboard in a gale. The two Dania* men of
war, Captain StorroaD writes, were fad to be laid
up at rzedericklla.lt. I have the honour to be, &c.

" P. S. The Leeds of London, from Petit (burgh
to London, with hemp, run no (hire. on the 16 Non
the Middle Gtoond, where Ike remained 36 hoursod-
The Danes (hewed a dill:wild= to attack her ; but
the barge of the Vanguard, and het launch with a
Aarronade, fupported by the wail, kept them in
chick till we got her off."
