PARIS, DECEMBER 2.

According to accounts from mot cf the ports of
the Mediterranean, the Algetines have commenced
againft the French and their Allies, and
alto upon the Americans. Such a precipitate war,
le lightly begun againft nations, whom England has
long feared and envied, muft have naturally excited
the fufpicion that Britith influence was not foreign to
the determination of the Algerine Government, and
we are now allured that this fufpicetuk is well ground.
ed. According to accounts from the American
Confulate at Naples, there was found on board a
New York trading fchooner, lately carried in there,
among the papers of the Algerine Prizemafter, that
were thrown overboard, an order of the Britifh
Conful at Algiers, by which all the Captains of his
nation are ordered to refpeet the captures made by
Algerine rovers as lawful prize.
DE e. 3.—The public papers of this day contain no
intelligence of importance. The five per cent Con-
fols are at 86 francs, ro cents. •

This forenoon the expeeei Declaration of the
Kano again!' Rana was publithed in a Gazette Ex.
traordinary, a literal Copy of which is given in our
next page.

The American brig Sufan, arrived at Falmouth
from linurdeaux with a cargo of wine and brandy,
reports, that two French fligates efcAped from Dour-
&aux on the cQ intions, fuppofed fur the Weil

Some doubts have been tinted as to the corred-
nefs of the intelligence refpeeling the failing of the
Portuguefe fleet from the Tagus, becaufe no fuch
accounts have been. received-
by Government, and
the Ann, it kerns, had no bufinefs at the Tagus.
One circumtlance, indeed, was inaccurately (Wed
in the accounts from Plymouth ; but that being cor.
reeled, the intelligence in its general and prominent
feature remains unaltered. It was not the Ann that
fpoke the Portuguefe Beet, but the Diana from Lill
h n. On the 4th inftant the Ann boarded the Diana,
and, received from her intelligence of the event, which,
was erroneoufly hated to have occurred to the Ann
herfelf.

The Diana hurried away on the 28th nit. in con-
fequence of the apprehended arrival of the French
army, General Josor having already arrived, and
the army being expeeked to enter on the 3oth.
The Diana further reported, that on the 28th fix
line of battle (hips, three frigates, two, brigs, and one
fchooner, failed from Liibon ; that this fquadron
was efeorting the Royal Family ; and that there were
left in the harbour at Litton nine Ruffian mtn of
war. One frigate hadfailed on the 26. h.

Such are the accounts received by the Ann from
the Diana, and their general accuracy feems to be
rendered highly probable by a circumflance, which
occurred to the Ann herfelf. On the IR inR. he
" paired through a Portuguefe fquadron in lat. 38.
46. N. long. tI. 4. W. of 27 fail, many apparently
line of battle (hips."

The Diana was bound for Liverpo, I. and we ray
therefore loon expel to hear correaly what intelli-
gence.. (he has brought. In the mean time we fub-
join a letter from a Gentleman on board the Ann.
containing the particulars from which the above ab-
find has been made :

" The Ann hived armed brig, of twadve twelve.
pounders, manned with 39 men, commanded by
Lieutenant JAMB. *Kan us, failed from Plymouth
on the 14th of November, with difpatches for Sir

the Vinfajo, Spanifh lugger privateer, of rut three
pounders, one long nine pounder, with a complement
0145 men, eight days from Ferrol, without having ,
made any capture. On the 24th, entered the Gut
of Gibraltar, prize in company, where (he wai" be. li

containing a force of Wean 7or 800 men. At half
pan ten the lugger, having nine men on board, (truck
to the gun boats, fir( having hailed the Lieutenant,
and Paying there were three men killed. The gun
boats then commenced a furious attack on the brig;
but from the determined refinance of the brave crew,
after an engagement of three hours, within piftol
(hot, they hauled off, feveral of them having (offered
feverely from the well direeted fire from the Ann,
who, anonifhing to relate, had not a man hurt. I
fend you herewith a copy of Lord PAULET9S letter to
Admiral YOUNG on the fubjed, by which you will
perceive the high fenfe he entertains of the very emi.

from England at the entrance of the Streights. The

boarded the Diana, from Lifbon to Liverpool, with
palfengers. She pot to Pea on the 28th (in more.
quence of infbrmation that 14,000 French troops
were to enter Lifbon on the 3oth), with fo much pre.
cipitancy, that the Mailer and boat were left behind,
and very little provifions were taken on hoard. She
reported, that on the 28th, fix line of battle (hips,
three frigates, two brigs, and a fchooner, failed, having
on board the Royal Family ; that one of the princi-
pal Mininers was on board the Prince Royal,. double
ironed, in confequence of a difcovery having been
made of his intrigues with Narooson and the Prince
of PFAeI to overturn the Government ! General
Juno:. had arrived at Li(bnn. The Diana left in
the hatbour nine fail of Ruffian men of war. One
Ruffian frigate failed on the 26th. On the Itth,l
