out from Portfmouth ; Sir SAMUSL HOOD and Cap-
tain Srotroen to have the naval command. The

We know for cerr.in that one French fquadron,
with troops on board, has lately made its ekape from
Brea, bound for Buenos Ayres, and it is not impro-

no farther delay in fending off the Expeditions that
are Co Ihip board, and that the brave. B OLD

band.

We have kilt been favoured with the following let-
ter lions a friend, who is attached to one of the expe-
ditions which lately failed from Portfmouth and Ply-
mouth, and now lies.off Falmouth. We have every
reafon for hoping that this able and valuable Cone-
fpondent will enable us to lay before the Public the
carlieft and molt authentic accounts of the operations
of this band of heroes, when they tball have resched
their place of deltination:
