A letter from Guernfey, dated the tub Whist,
Pays—" The DIOIMIDI, of so guns, lying in our
Roads, yetterday received orders from the Adiniralty
to repair immediately to Havre de Grace, where the
is to be joined by kveral other Mips of war, and re-
ceive further orders. We do not at prefint know for
what purpofe the is goose, but it is fuppofed that Go•
vernment entertain a fulpicion of the gunboats in
that port endeavouring to get out the next fpring tide.
—lt is however generally believed, that foam bombs
are alfo ordered to proceed to that port. Sir Jamas
SAUMARIZ'S Bag is now flyingon board theCsassa us,
which, together with the EL lac, CAILTWILICINT.CON•
(WEST, and another gun-brig, two 'loops of war, and
the Hs cLA bomb.are going on another expedition im-
mediately on the arrival of fix other bombs, which
are hourly expetted. A repetition of the attack on
Granville will, it is underilood, take place. The pre-
cautions taken by Government for the fecurity of our
trade in the Channel, are entitled to the highett
praife, for the French coax oppofite is fo well watch-
ed by our cruizers, that not an enemy's vefrel of any
defcription is to be teen."
The Congrefs of the United States of America
have ordered, that hereafter no copper coins except
cents and half cents 'hall be confidered a legal tender
of Payment.
The Montreal Gazette of the Sth of Augu fl, Rates
the melancholy intelligence, that that place had been
on fire at four different times in the courfe of one
week. The lofts individuals had fullaincd in conk.
(linnet, were incalculable. The dwelling houfes and
warehoufes deftroyed are numerous. It was foppofed
that the calamity had been produced by incendiaries.
To prevent limber mitchief, the foldiery parade the
Greets at night. Great pains have been taken to
difcover the villains, but without effeEt.
