Letters from Warfaw of the sth inft. mention the
arrival in that city of a Ruffian Nobleman from St.
Peterfburgb, with a letter written by the Emperor's
own hand, and addreffed to Louis XVIII. King of
France and Navarre, containing an invitation from
the Ruffian Monarch to his Moft Chriaian Majeay
to fix his refidence at Mittau, cr in any other place
in the Ruffian Empire, where all the honours due to
ihis rank, virtues, and misfortunes, than be paid to
him. At the defile of the Emperor of Russia,
Louis XVIII. has made known to all his faithful
fubjeets, difperfed and perfecuted in different Conti-
nental States, that they have a point to rally round
in the Ruffian Empire, where they will be protected,
employed, and fuccoured. According to ~the fame
letters, two new corps of Emigrants are to be eaa-
blifhed, and taken into the Ruffian fervice, called,
" The Royal Legion of Honour," and " Legion of
d'Enghien." The for Mer, repOrt rays, is to be under
the immediate command of Louis XVIII. his royal
brother, and nephews. The command of the latter
will be offered to the Prince Ds CONDB and Duke of
B3URBON. Should a rupture take place between
Rullia and France, thefe Legions are to form the ad-
vanced guard of the Ruffian Army, where the Royal
Standatd of Fiance, the Cryiante, will be eroded,
which all loyal Frenchmen, who can &ape the de-
grading tyranny of the Corficau Adventurer, are or-
dered to join.

Yeflerday difpatches were received at the Admi-
ralty from Admiral Louts, commanding the fqua-
dron off Boulogne, flat ing, that on Friday the enemy's
' Flotilla came out of the harbour in an hoftik and
menacing array. Our Squadron immediately flood
towards them, and, by a fortunate breeze of wind
fringing up, was enabled to bring them to with
confiderable drat. This loon threw them into con-
fufion ; and in that (late they eudeavoured, with great
precipitation, to regain the harbour, which, from
the diforder in which they appeared, very few were
enabled to effell. The weft lay in a confuted manner
at the mouth of the harbour under cover of their
own guns, but expofed to a galling fire from our
Squadron,. that did them confiderable damage, and
funk feveral of them. The particulars of this molt
ferions rencontre between our fleet and the enemy's
flotilla, will probably appear in the Gazette of this
evening.

Accounts from Dover Rate that our blockading
fquadron had been forced by the late gales frOm its
Nation of Boulogne. On Sunday it had nrt been
able to refu:ne its nation. The enemy continue to
fend their gun-boats by the inland navigation from
Flu(Ling to °fiend, and the number already airem-
bled at Boulogne is afeertained to be not kis than
t zoo.—. Under theft cirenaniances. Government, we
are happy to find, negleti no nieafure of precaution
and vigour to frufirate the enemy's defign., and turn
the daring attempt to their own deflration. Along
the whole line of our coati, the troops are continually
on the alert, and ready for immediate aflion ; and
%bile all are carious for the combat which is to fet
the menace at reit, there is not a tingle boforn which
does not glow with indignation at the infoknt threat
of the Corfican Ufurper.
