Yeflerday we had the ple.tfure to announce the ar-
foi,a of twelve fail of veffcls horn Jamaica in the
Ariaol Chanel: they failed from Port Royal, Jamaica,
un the 3d of July, under convoy of his Majefty's (hips
Tx as a us, DHAG toil A, and Cc R r, confifing of about
one hundred and fifty-fix fail. A Gentleman who

came paffenger from Jamaica reports, that, to hia
4.nowledge, none of tLe London Ships are miffing.
The number arrived at the Ilk of Wight are thirty
Icfs than when the convoy failed; of which four are
known to be taken; and four went afhore in the
Culf, but are fuppofed to be got off. Some may have
• gone to America. We heard of two putting into
Chatleftown : fo that thofe yet miffing may aot be
:e danger. The following are the names of thole
arrived at Briftol:
lidsuies, Powell ; Zephyr, PaCnaore ; John, Prichard; Jane,

Harvey; Nadi*, Thoisitt Pk", Baker% St. Ilinbeth,te• 1
veil ; Trelawny,Tilley ; Jamaica, Walker; Vulcan, Baker; Ed-
ward, Powell; and Ann, Gardner.

Our Plymouth letter, received this morning, an.
nounces the tale arrival of 76 fail of the above Fleet,
off the Sound, coming up Channel ; and that the
other part of the Fleet had gone up the Brifiol Chan-
nel; but lays nothing of any being miffing. from
which we hope the whole, or nearly fo, are fife.

The difpatches by the CAM 'Laos floop, to which
we yeflerday alluded, announced that 4, the Com-
bined Fleets of the enemy remained in Cadiz on the
23d ult. and the Carthagena fquadron In that port
on the isth of the fame month."
The Ca mat. sow left Gibraltar on the 23d of Au-
guff, with difpatches from Admiral Sir RICHARD
BICH BITCH. A few hours after the failed, the fell
in with Admiral COLLINGWOOD'S fquadron, who
had been joined by Admiral KNIGHT with four fail
of the line, making eight in the whole with his for-
mer force ; the fquadron wan then (leering for Ca-
diz. On the nest day the fell in with Sir Rosser.
CaLosa's fquadron, about' twenty.five miles North
Weft of Cape St. Vincent, fleeting diree for Cadiz.
Admiral Cavan would arrive on the 2sth or 26th,
I with eighteen Gil of the line. The enemy, however,
had AM a day or two, if they meant to try an efcape,
which appears flill probable they would do. They
might intend to take the Carthagena fqtradron with
them to Toulon, the whole force of which reinforce-
ment it would require to enable them to face the 26
fail of the line that would be in purfuit of them. If,
however, they brought out the Spanith (hips from
Cadiz, they would, with the Carthagena feet, eight
fail, be at lea forty fail of the line. If they did not
fail immediately, they would be effeltually blockaded
on Sir R. Ceram a's arrival.

The fleet off Cadiz is at prefent under the stn•
mand of Admiral Cotitscwooo, who, though a
Captain of die fame year with Sir, RosißT CALDra,
is fenior to him, by a few weeks. His command,
however, is but temporary, as Lord Nstsom is to
take the command of that nation, and in the Medi-
terranean. If the chances againQ the enemy corn-
ing out, are confiderable at prefent, they will be.
come quite defperate, when they are apprifed that
their cuQody has been aligned over to that great
Commander.

From Malta difpatches were yellerday received,
dated the 23d July, Rating, that the Expedition under
Sir JAIM Ca*io, had fafely arrived there on the
r 7th July. The troops have the full enjoyment of
good health and (pinks; and the voyage has already
inured them to the change of climate. It is to be
hoped, that they will not long remain 'native ; lout
whether to aid the Ruffians in Corfu, or to make *
landing for the proteflion of Egypt, we than not
pretend to determine.

Government have received intelligence, on which
they can rely, that a great part of the troops which
were encamped at Boulogne have been marched
away, without queaion towards the Rhine.
This information was obtained by the capture of
one of the enemy's gun boats. It is, however, cnly
what we had prepared our Readers to expea. We
have, for fome time, fufpetfled that the altembling fo
large an army had, for its object, the overawing t
the continental powers more than any fetious inten-
tion to invade this countryd The following letter on
the breaking up of the camp at Boulogne, is from an
officer of one of the veffels in the Powni, dated the
4th inflant

" We this day came in from Boulogne. A great
change has taken place there. Not a re& is to be
teen ontfide the Pier; nor could we Ice any foldiers
upon the heights around. As we were reconnoiter.
ing round the bay they fired !hot and !hells at us in
every direftion, before we came within range. This
I plainly (hews they willed to keep us from watching
their motions. The fart is, I have no doubt, that al-
atoll the'whole of the aro, it marched away from Boulogne."
Three Hamburgh Mails arrived daft night. The
complexion of the intelligence which they bring, is
Gallia to what we have been receiving for a week
or two paft from the continent. Every where the Ruf-
fian and Auftrian troops are in motion, and every
movement indicates approaching hoftilities. They
do not, however; confirm the ftatement brought by
the Gottenburgh Mail, of an anion having taken
place between the Ruffian and Pruffian troops.

It will be a little time yet before the intentions of
the Great Powers will be developed completely by
their movements. But the period cannot be diflant.
The Mail's Empire teems fo much convulfed in
every part, that it would be no way forprifing, Ihould
it not furvive the war in which the Continent is about
to be engaged.
Letters from Corfu Rate, that the Ruffian troops
there have been Iricreafed by a half year's recruiting
throughout all the lonian Iflands, to 36 or 38,000
men, and wiln.bd Bill farther augmented by the in-
habitants who join them, many of whom are Volun-
teers.

A Board of-klealth has been eftablithed in Ireland
confining of rhefollowing Members :
Earl of Dononglonore, Prefsdent, Do6or Robert Percival,
Rcax•Aimiral John Hils. Tiodor John W. Bogton,
Colonel Charles Hanafirld, Doctor ]antes Ckghorn, and

The following is a Copy of a Letter from an officer
on board the PNORti IX, daked Plymouth, Sept. 3 s—
" I have the pleating fatistaaion in mentioning to
you that on the t 9th Augua rte (poke the Tranfit to,
the northward (it Cape Sr. Vincent, then bound to
Smyrna, and thould have efcorted her through the
Gut, as we were bound to Gibraltar. On the sad we
(poke his Majelly's (hip P/ It YA LIJI, who infOrmed us
that the combined fleas pert at Cadiz, and that the
had been chafed by fome of their look-out fhiPv,
which altcred our intention of going to the Rode.,
(having a frigate in tow, which I &ail hereafter ea-
plain to you). At half pall nine A. U. on the *Ail
the EURYA cos pined company and went off Cadiz
to-reconnoitre them. ' The Trantit availed fierfelf of
the opportunity of making a puth for it, as the wind
was thong ttoni the n'eftward they were going

of near three hours, the greater part' of which time
within half piaci (hot of each other; and for upwards
of half an hour her bowfprit was locked in ourgipain
rigging, by which means we fuffered much by7teir
muflcetry from the immenfe number of folditrs they
had on board. We knocked away both her fore and
main mail, and dsfmantled her completely. We had
12' kilted and 28 woupded, many of them dangerour-
ly, Come of whom are fume dead. La Didon bad 27

fleets. We have had her in tow ever force until our
arrival. On the 14th, in lat. 4+ long. 10.12. we
faw the combined fleets to windward of us, about
five leagues then from Ferrol, (landing to the NNW.
wind at N. E.; at that time his Majelly's Ihip
DRAGON was in company with us, who joined the
day before ; three of their lookout (hips chafed us,
but did not like to lofe fight of their fleet, by which
means we efcaped them, expeding they were bound
to the Northward, to unite with the Brea Fleet 'and
it is moil fingular to me to hear of them at Cadiz).
We puthed for Lilbon, when off that place, judged it
not prudent to go'there, to prevent difpleafure on the
part of BONAPARTI—bore up for the. 11°4, and
were prevented as before explained. We have been
bandied about in the moil fingtilar manner you can
conceive, having been Alert of water, fcc. &c.

ports on a fide.: mounting 28 French ;B's, and a car-
ronade of 40 pounders, in all 46 'guns, and 330 men.
I have never yet feen any thing equal to her in poirt
of failing, aqdlnocking up a pea of that kind mutt
be very gratifying to the merchaotk and nada-

In mob parts of our Southern Counties the Wheat
is generally cut and hoofed, the Grain is uncom-

Ratter ourfelres, blefs us with fine and as abundaa
crops, as we perhaps ever 'Amelia.

We are glad to learn that the prices of Corn are
generally failing. In our London Markets, prices
of Wheat have declined within this fortnight nearly
ails,per 9.2arter, but to-day, is confequence of a
(hover this morning. it is rather on the advance.
