HAMBURGH, AUGUST 13.—The diftrefs occafioned
in this city by the blockade of the Elbe, becomes
every day more apparent. Upwards of thirty fuicides
have been committed here in the fhort fpace of one
week. The French in Hanover are making every
exertion to fit out flat bottomed boats for the expedi-
tion againft England. All the carpenters in that
country are preffed into-the fervice, and large offers
are made to the fhip builders on this fide the Elbe.—
The forefts of Lauenburg Alone are to furnifh fhip
timber fufficient to build 160 flat bottomed armed
veffels. Their &ft objet is to drive from what is
called the Wait= thole fmall Britifh ve,ffels of war
which now complete the blockade of the Elbe, and
have by their vigilance intercepted a number of fhips,
moflly laden with cora. This is the avowed purpofe
of a number of fmall velels of war now fitting out at
Stade and Harburgh. They have within thefe few
days begun to rade a legion of natives, who are
obliged to take the oath of allegiance and fidelity to
the French Republic. Thofe, however, who have
hitherto enlifled are very few, and among them there
is not one of the brave Hanoverian armyi
