DOVER, ItiCUST 27.

reterday, the atmorphere beanie very clear, end
in the evening. as the fun was going down, the French
colfl'could be teen with great di flinEtnefs.
The camp at Boulogne could be plainly feen ; it
teems to have been confide: ably increafed of late ; and
the foldiers could be difbovered at erercife, their
arms glittering in the fun. The French gun-boats
have been coming out of BOulogne ever fidte Friday
evening, a few at a time, and although they did not
appear from our heights to amount to more than a
hundred, yet by a Folkllone lugger which Was off
Boulogne
,yellerday, we are alibied they amounted'
tall night to three hundred and fifty outfide the bar.
boor, betides an immenfe (warm infide, the malls of
which mould be feen. Our Duagenefs fottadron, con-
fitting of about eighteen (hips of war, was yeaerday
evening at anchor to the well of Boulegne, and Come
of our (mailer veffels were cruizing to and fro. Some
tif the French gun-brigs very daringly put off from
the tell, WI keeping within cover of the land batteries,
ind leafed to brave, to provoke our cruizers firing at
them. This enticed Come flour velfels to go too near
the fisOre, to return their fi re, and thus they were brought
within range of the land batteries, the firing from which
was tremendous, covering the whole coati with fmoke.
The 111140117/ILITI frigate went in and fired f
broadfides at the enetny,.i nd fo dld Come fmaller veffels.
One of there was plainly teen from our heights to be
a black-tided cutter, fuppofed to be the Cooflitution
cutter of Dover, 150 tons, 12 guns, and 40 men.—
Suddenly the perfons looking through &dies from
our heights, miffed her, and, on looking narrowiy,
they difcovered her malt above water : Coon after-
wards they law many boats pat off from our other
(hips to pick up the men as they fuppofed, and ai the
crews of thofe boats held up their oars, after they had
reached their objett, it was concluded dm: all the crew
of the cutter were laved. All this was plainly feen
from our heights about half pall Piz lag night, and no
doubt iris entertained that the enemy had funk ot.e
of our cutters by their land batteries ; but the fist 2 ne t
being pofitively certain, as perfons looking from the
heights are fometinses cicceiveLLand the mail coach
basing Pet off, no account of this event could be fent
to London lag night. This morning, however, by
the arrival of the lugger at Folkflone, the whole of
what was teen from the heights has been confirmed.
The cutter was flrock by a bomb about half pall fit
o'clock. It heeled on one fide, and took in a dear of
water, but it foon after righted, when the crew got
out their (weeps, and made figoals of dißrefs. The
Inn uTk frigate immediately flood in between
the cotter and the land, and fired feveral broadlides at
the French flotilla and at the batteries, to cover the
cutter, which was retreating with its (weeps, occa-
(tonally falling on one fide, and taking in water as if
the had been (truck and cut open by the bomb on that
fide, The Ist 'AORTAL Liza fent out all her boats to pick
up the crew, and other boats were likewife (e out,
to the number of about thirty ; they were in a few
minutes near the cutter, and to,,k out her men. It is
fuppofed the crew were all laved, as the boats held tip
all their oars, in lignal that no man was loft. Whet'
aoy are 1011, cne or two ears are held down in propor.
Lion to the number who ft: fler. Soon after the men
were fared the cutter wen: to the bottom. ' When the
batacirratars went in and fired, the blaze and fmoke
both from her and from the land batteries, were
dreadful. Many (tots amid be leen fall eonfiderably
on this fide of her, and Come bombs fell fo near as to
fplalh her fides with water. Indeed it is not doubted,
th 4 the received feveral ;hot, and probably fullained
fume damage, as the French gun-boats were out in
fuck numbers, feveral of them in motion, as fo moth
futoke and firing were feen. When the bemoan:a-
ura and another frigate got under way, Come per.
Cons OD our height: espetted to fee our whole (qua.
dron under way alto, and that the enemy was anualle
going to attempt to come over. The veffels were full
' of foldiers. They remained however very fun under
cover of their batteries, %I hen nii,ht fell, and this
morning they were in the fame potation. One of the
frigates put into our roads this morning, and a boat
put same with two officers. The moment they
landed they law the boat away, defirons that the
crew Mould not communicate with the fpeltaton.—
Paton; who viewed Boulogne within ai few miles ref-
' terday, and who have been at Gibraltar, fay, it is
fortified as Ilroogly as that celebrated garrifon, great
additions and Improvements having lately been made.
Nothing Is come from the fleet with any certain
intelligence. Signals being made from Little Corn-
hill, all the (hips in Dover Roads got under weigh;
and flood over with a profs of fail.
Six P. M.—By a Gentleman Jail come up here from
Hlthe, I have learnt that the tiring of Boulogne has
continued nearly the whole of the day ; that the enemy
has continued to fend their Waal& out the whole of
the tide, where they anchor in a line clan in more.

My Lord—l hare much fatisfattion in announcing
to you the capture (by his Majefty's {hip Louts) of
a frigate privateer, belonging to Bourdeaux, mount•
ing thirty-nine pounders, with 240 men, which I had
the good fortune to fall in with in lat. 49 deg. 30 min.

in the ate of finking. She held the Loots a ehaee
of twenty hours, the lad quarter of an hour being
a running anion ; from our fitaation, together with
the darknefs of the night, fcw timer pus took effea
upon her till latterly. Seven of her mat were badly
wounded, two of whom are Since dead. Six of the
LOMA'S men were wounded, two only Severely. and.
I am happy to addh are in a fair way of recovery.
I have every reafon to be pleated with the condole of
the Officers and llip's company k have the honour to

force to the Lome, they would have loft neneof the

Paffage in Spain, without having made any capture.
She is a very fine (hip, fails remarkably fall, and ap-
