mountains high, and the wind at S. E. blew tremen-

irds (retched off to the Southward. in order (as
wve luppole) to weather the Lizard, the wind being
about S. or S. S. E. lam the more induced to note
this vent, as the French lugger privateer (l'Aven-
Cure, of zo guns, prize to the Acasra) has not yet
arrived, and as Come doubts have been entertained
refpeaing her fafety, think it not unlikely but the lug.
per above mentioned is the fame veftel, which by this
time, I have no doubt, has arrived fafb at Plymouth.
This day the wind has fallen back to the Weftward
with finall rain, but quite moderate.

Rausetatt, Dec. 10 —A boat front this place,
failing in the Gull llream yellerdaY, caw a number
of folchers cocked hats, tome bowls, a table and other
articles, floating upon the fea. The boatmen picked
up and brought on chore one of the hats, which bears
the French tri-coloured cockade, and on the button
the number 27 ; fo that it moll likely belonged to a
private of that Brigade. In all probability, this is
another fatal inftance of the infecurity of the gun-
boats deftined for the Murton of this country. An
occurrence happened here this morning, which his
oceafioned confiderable fenfation, and ferves as a
melancholy proof how rapidly this harbour is fin.
ing up. A lighter, between the outer pier heads, at
low water, though drawing only thirty inches, took
the ground, and (luck fall in the mud. According
to the obfervations of pilots; and other perfons of
nautical experience, the accumulation of mud in this
harbour is not lets than Liz feet deep within the lift
