ROLLAND.

Moos, Faa. sg.—According to letters from
ris, the murder of the Filter Cowing. was fixed upon
to take place in the night between the r4th and 15th
inftant. At five o'clock in the afternoon the difco.
very was made, and the intended malted ball at the
Opera was forbidden.
Numbers of pretended Englint agents and many
Frenchmen their accomplices, are now in the Temple

It is now known for certain that General La 110•
at s, who, during the !aft campaign againft Auftria,
was employed by General MOR eau, to negotiate the
feveral eeffions of arms, is arrefted with General
Dasoaciss, and many ther Generals and military
men. Several other great names are mentioned as
conneßed with the Confpirators, and we are allured
that the Army in Holland have juft received orders
to arreft feveral Officers of rank.

Confpiracy, brought General Maarsour a commit-

Shortly after the arrival of General Matrons- in
this country, Admiral Vain aut. was ordered with
the greaten part of the Flotilla for Dunkirk and
Boulogne. On the 18th an embargo was therefore
laid on all (hips in or near the ifland of Walsberen,
to prevent the enemy from obtaining information of
the failing of this flotilla. On the 19th, a great
divifion of it, confining nearly of one hundred-vef-
fels, or twenty-three gun-boats, and (entity-five flat.
bottomed boats, went to fea. They had on-board two
French half-brigades that were lately in Hanover.—
Admiral Vsanuat. commanded the flotilla, and his
flag was on board one of the gun-corvettes. At
noon the divifion was out of fight; unexpetledly,
however, the whole returned at night, on account of
a heavy fog and contrary wind, or, as Tome pretend,
to avoid an Englilh divifion of frigates. The wind
is yet contrary, and the flotilla continues at Flufhing.
In the mean time preparations are made for the
failing of the whole flotilla at the fame time, which,
befides gunboats, confifis of zoo flat-bottomed boats
and tranfports.
General d'East., the, commander of the French
artillery in Holland, is ordered to Hanover to fue-
