PLYMOUTH, MARCH 3.—Letters from la TOPARR,
of 36 guns, Capt. Laza, (late her prize, le General
Angeteau privateer, 16 guns and go men, canted into
Cork, as an extremely ftrong 'elle% and well fitted
for fighting or running. A prize to the Virlams,
guns, Capt. NEWMAN. •arrived at Torbay two days
fince ; by her, is learnt a very .extraordinary account
of the fquadron which efcaped from Rochefort having
got into Ferrol, to join the Dutch. Spanitb, and
French fquadrons there; and that the detached five
fail of the line, of which the Variaam was one,had
joined Admiral COCHRANebrquadmn on that Ration.
I As this account is received by a letter from the VR-
TBRAN'S prize, it, is given without vouching for its
authenticity. Sailed for Torbay to join the fleet, the
MINOTAUR, 74 guns, Captain MANSTiELD ; and Ds-
stance, 74 guns, Captain DURHAM. Lail Monday a
Court Martial was held on board the fleet at Torbay,
on Captain BLICH, of the %Velma, 74 guns, on
charges of tyranny preferred againft him by one of
his Lieutenants (who was tried Tome time fince for
difobedience of orders and acquitted): after a trial,
which tatted the whole of the day, Captain B. was
reprimanded, with an admonition from the Prcfi lent
in Court, and reftored to the command of the WAR-
RIOR.

his Majefly's (hip ENOYMIOII, Hon. Captain PACIT,
after capturing a number of Spanifh prizes. decorated
with the molt sighing ribbons the tars on board
of her could purchafe to the amount of one hundred
pounds; nothing could be more pleating to the fpee-

in confequenee of their fined's. Sailed the DRAGON,

fleet ; SARACEN, of IS guns, Captain Pasvorr, with

DOVER, MARCH. 3.—A large fmuggling lugger
arrived here to-day, with about twelve hundred bar-
rels of gin, brandy, rum, tobacco, and tea, taken by
the Twee and LIVELY revenue cutters, after an
affray, in which two or three were wounded. On
the 19th ultimo, the officers of Excite, on fearching
the north end of Deal for 11 ime good:, (hilen out of
the wreck (hip Endeavour, were 'woofed by the Deal
men, who mounted a twelve-pound carronade to fire
on the officers, and deter them from doing their duty;
but the officers calling the military to their aid, the
banditti that oppofcd them ran away. Great praife
is due to the military on this occalion. The weather
now being tolerably fine, the woke at the heights
go on with increafed aitivity ; a (haft has been be-
gun, and will be opened before long to form a quick
mode of afcendiag and defcending to and from the
works from the town in Snargate-ffreet; the barracks
that are finiared are very commodious, and faid to
equal any in the kingdom ; great improvements are
alto Paid to be likely to takc place (non in our har-
bour, now become a place of fo much confequence
from she great forte the enemy has colleaed at
Boulogne.

Rol/war, Ifaacts 2.—A tmnggler, which landed
her cargo on this coati a few days fince, was feized
by a Reyenue cutter, but the officers, from the iv-
polition they experienced, could not keep pnfilflion
of her without the affiflance of the military. A party
of the IR Royal Lancafhire Militia, Rationed at
Dungenels, were accordingly called to their afli l-
ance. They had not been long on this duty, when
they were attacked by about one hundred Imuggltrs;
in confequence of which a !Mart envagement enfued,
nor were they repulfed till the military had fired
eight or tcn rounds. One fitioggxr was killed on
the (pot, and feveral wounded ; and we are forry to
add, that Captain 1-loLuitoslrsan. who headed the
party, received a flog from a blunderbufs in his lisle,
which we fear will prove fatal.

THEATRE, DRURY•LANE.—Laft night the houfe
was again entirely filled by an audience eager to wit-
net, the performance of Mailer Berry, in the cha-
racter of Ewer. It had been announced that he was
to fupport that part as this evening; but the Royal
Command interfered with the arrangement that had
been formed- Thefe who had taken boxes, merely
with the hope of teeing The Honey Moon, were thus
agreeably difappointed, while thole who had been
waiting for weeks to fee the theatrical prodigy, were
grievoufly difappointed. The audience was as nume-
rous, and as idea as on any occation fince he &ft ap-
peared before a London audience. He was mull en-
thufialically applauded. The tidies of Mrs. H.
Jom a rrow is a very interelling delineation, but not to
'richly coloured as that of Mrs. H. Sintspas, at the
other houfe; and BANNISTER'S Mereutio is confider ably
inferior to Lewis's performance of the fame charater.
COVENT -GAIDEN.—LaIt night the Comedy of
"To Marry, or not to Marry," was repeated at Covent-
' Garden Theatre, and received with undiminifhed
applaufe. The Houle was much crowded, and the
inimitable drollery of Mumma kept the audience in
great good humour. In the courfe of the third A&
tome mitchevious perfon in the gallery had the au-
dacity to throw an orange at the young Lady who
, lately mad: her debut. This circumftance excited
great indignation in every part of the houfe, and we
hope that the offender was taken into caffody. Such
atrocities are a difgrace to a civilized country, and
ought to be feverely punifhed. The new after-piece •
went off alt.() with increafed tuccas, the merit of which
teems now. to be fully eftablifhed. Etwcerr, in the
6.lra:ter of 7 imothy, excited much laughter by his
numerous and fatirical firokes. Lauretta having oh.
ferved that Midas turned every thing to gold, Triserhy
archly remarked " that things were now reverted,
for, tonal a great man with gold, and you can
convert 'him into any thing." He afterwards gained
more credit by relating an exploit he had performed,
while in the tervice of Lawyer Poac shof Lincoln's
Inn. A Cat which greatly difturbed his Mallet,
while drawing his pleadings, had been frequently Shut
up, but always efcaped—" So," Pays Timothy, " I
at Taft tied her up in a blue bag, and dropped her io
I the Court of Chancery, for I wa: fare /be would not
get out thetice again in a hurry." BRAH•PeS beautiful
long When William Tell was doomed to die," and
Fawcrre's •

• .1 Oh ! Father had a jolly km&

were loudly encored.
Yenerday the foundation none of the Ean India
Docks, now confiroaing at Blackwall, was laid by
Captain Jost r H HODDAIr (in the abfence of the Chair-
man, JosrrH Corrom, Efq. who was confined by ill-
nefs,) and ft)HK W001.1401E9 Efq. the Deputy Char-
man, with some others of the Direltors, amidfk a
numerous concourfe of people, who teltified their
good wifh=s for the Cutters of the undertaking, by
giving three cheers on the occafion. Thefc Dock.,
though not fo large as either the London or Weft
India Docks, will be capable of admitting (hips of
larger burthcn, by having deeper wider, and locks of
larger dimenfiens. They confift of two Docks, and
an entrance Baron. That for difeharging inwards will
cover eighteen acres—that for outward bound
nine acre►. The entrance Bafoo will be about thus
