Camaretz Bay, may have worked out through the.
Paffage de Ratz; others conjeBure that they hate
been difpatched out of Rochefort, to reinforce their

EXTRACT OF A LETTER FROM AN OFFICER ON BOARD
HIS MAJESTY'S SHIP PALLAS, ELYMOOTH, APRIL

6TH, 1805.
ccWe arrived here yelierday afternoon, about two
o'clock, after having been out two months, as we
faile'd from this place on the :IR of January. We
failed for England on the 2 tit March, and were four,
teen days on our pafTage from the Weliern Ifles.—
We had very bad weather, and had not a fair wind
for more than three days ; we were alfo fhort of every
thing but Spanyh hallo/. When we arrived, thq
people on (bore cheered us. I find it was reported
I that we were taken. We were indeed very near it ;
about fix or fevcii days ago bring chaced oy 0% es
French line of battle (hips, which being concealed by
a thick fog, we did not fee them till they were with-
in a gun-lhot and a half of us it blew very har.rl ak
the time, and we had our top-m; li flruck. You may
therefore imagine what a bugle we were in ; 'but we
gave them the flip in the night time and escaped."
By the Lit authentic information which has been
received of the fleet under Admiral Coco Rau c, it ap-
pears that it was taking '.n water at Lifbon, on the
9th of Match, and it is fuppofed failed the day fol-
lowing. On the loth the NIGER was the only Eng-
fhip of war in the Tagus. The LIVELY and
SrEEDWELL failed on a cruize the ;9:h ; the Fon-
LETTE three days previous.

A Mail artived yellerday from Hamburgh, from
which we have given feveral articles in a preceding

column. The following Parit; letter is from a
_Tat:mai
printed at Altona, and thews, that the rumours of
invation are again to be circulated with all the aeal
poffible. Such a threat is not likely to he loon ele-
cuted—but knowing :he enemy we have to contend
with, it is to he hoped no room will be left for having
the fable veiified of the Shepherd 130,4. v.ho called

Wolfe! Wolfe ! WI no one believed him.
Extradl of a letter from March z z.—"Triere
is a talk of two expated alliances, the crie between
Auftria and France, and the other between France

and Ruffia. There is even mention of a reciprocal
embaffy between the two empires. It is laid, that ern-
forinably to the promife made to the Etryeror
ANDER, France will evacuate the EleCtorate of Hano-
ver. In fail, the army which occupies that eleftorate,
i s ditninifhing. It is alto Paid, that the different corps
of that of the coati, which had been detached from it
for fame time, as well to ferve as a garrifon in tsarist
and to march into Italy, where hoOil;iies were feared,
have received orders to return to their refpeetive ar-
mies. On the other fide, all the officers who had 7C-
ceived leave of abfence fcr fix months, are requited
to rejoin their refpeCtive corps, though their furlong is
are not expired, and all the Generals in the army oa
the coalt have received orders to return to their polls.
From thefe di:tt ibutions, it is prefumed, that the ex•

pedition againti England, fo long deferred, will a;
length be carried into effea. Several c.ircumflarcet

can afcertain the truth. We are Anted, in the nip.)

of the expeditionary army deßined againft England;
