Extrad of a letter from a naval officer, off Fer-
rol, September to :—" You have no doubt read
the official letter of our expedition to Corunna,
(I have juti teen it in a paper we got from an
American ve(fel from London,) there has not, in
the courfe of the whole war, been a bolder claffi,
nor has there been (hewn on any occation more
cool and determined bravery: the obflacles ap-
reared lain-mountable, and when the well-known
firength of the place is confidered, that the packet
had no fails bent, that we boarded her and the gun•
boat within hail of the batteries, and were obliged
to tow them for upwards of two hours, before we
got clear of the tremendous fire of round and
grape Ihot ; it will be thought incredible, that we
had not a man killed or wounded the officers
who ferved as volunteers, were, Lieutenants PI PON,
fen. Daiiir, and GERRARD, (marines) of the Fi s-
GARD ; Lieut. CODD, of the DIAMOND; and Lieut.
Husow, of the BOADICE A. —I am, &c. &c."

fouth-eall part of the Bay, which, if accompliffied,
will fccurc it again ft the E. S. E. gales, the only
winds which can ale& it. This defirablc objea,
being once obtained, there can be moorings laid
down for -so men of war.

The alterations now making on Snow-hill and
the propofed enlargement of Smithfield Marker
by the City, afford a favourable opportunity for
adopting a great improvement, and at the fame
time of reniuving what may in many relpeets be
deemed a nuifance. It is propofed, that in addi-
tion to the buildings already pulled down, form
more of the many ruinous ones adjoining the
ground already cleared (hould be taken down, and
on the kite of them a Square or Circus built, in the
interior of which a Market Ibould be ellablithed in
lieu of Fleet Market, the fit nation of which has al
ways been confidered inconvenient. This improve-
mast would pave the way for another, lo oltea
filgeltcd—the continuing of Bridge-greet on a
grand kale to the lilington Roads, and through
Fialbury•fquar to bliorcditchr
