Our letters from Dublin inform us that Dwyer,
tl.e rebel marauder• of the Mountains of Wicklow,
who, ever (ince the former rebellion, has eluded every
means that has been employed to feize him, has at
laft been taken, and will probably foon meet that pu•
nithment his climes have JO long merited. Two
more of the incurgents have been tried and convifted.

This morning we received letters from Jerfey,
dated the 34th, which (late, that on Tuefday morn-
ing tall, a fleet of men of war and tranfports, con-
filing of about fizzy fail, pallid that Ifland to the
weftward, and that about la o'clock that night, a
tremendous cannonading or bombardment was beard
diftinftly by the inhabitants of the Ifland, which con-
tinued until four o'clock of the morning of Wednef-
day, the day on which our letters were fent off.

No particulars, however, had been received at the
time they were difpatched ; but the prevailing opi.
Won was that the firing milli have been at Granville
or that neighbourhood, it was heard fo very dif-
tindly.

We have thought it our duty to lay the above par-
ticulars before the public, knowing the general cor-
moaners of our Correfpondent. We think it firange,
however, that the firß intelligence that thould reach
us of fuch a fleet being in motion, Ibould be from
Jerfey. That fuch a firing as has been mentioned was
heard there we cannot doubt, for that is a point on
which there could be no miftake. It is poffible, how-
ever, that it may have been oecalioned by an engage-
ment at tea; for by our letters from Portfmouth re-
ceived this morning, we find that a fleet has jutlarrived
there from Cuernfey, which poffibly may have been
the one teen to pats the former Man& It is, how-
ever, fo difficult to conceive that the inhabitants of
Jerfey fhould be fo uninformed of the failing of a
fleet from Guernfey for Portfmouth, as to confound
the circumflance with an attack on the French coati,
that we mutt wait for further information, to clear
up the prefent u.lcertainty.

The on-boats which got into Calais were not frcm
Boulogne, as the account that reached us yefterday
Rated, but from Dunkirk.—The cireumftance, how-
ever, only thews that fometimee a few boats may,
under favourable circumaances, find their way dole
in (bore from one port to another. That a few boats
hould move from one port to another, is of little
confequenee in itfelf. The port of Calais is not ca•
pable of containing any confiderable number, and
the more difperfed the armament intended againft
this country, at haft of fmall craft, is, the lefs likely
it IS to a& with concert, the lefs it is likely that any
advantage of weather, favourable to one port, can
be equally fo to the whole.
As to the probability and the prafticability of an
invafion with a flotilla of boats, every one has formed
on opinion. Some think it practicable—others think
it ridiculous. It is proper to be prepared for every
thing that may happen. We may then fafely defpife
a bravado which always prefumes that England has
no defence but the ditch which divides it from France.
The French may pars it once—but they would find
it *ever again to be croTed by a living might. We
have a perfea conviction that the French, with an
inferior navy, never can land at any one point of
Eng'and a formidable number of men, with fuitable
fopplies ; and, if they did, that the high fpirit and
the encreafing military refources of the nation would
quickly defeat the attcr...pts of the largett force which
the enemy could propofe to embark.

A cartel, which failed from Dover on the 4tb
with Fret.ch prif mers, returned to that place yeller•
day from Modals, the French port to which all in-
tercourfe refpeeting exchange of prifoners has been
confined by order of the Government of Frar•.ce. We
do not find. that any French journals of a recent date
have been received by this veffel, nor. is it the route
by which, on common occalions, we thould look for
them. Indeed the Paris journals afford fo little in-
formation, the prefs in that fee rouvey being com-
pletely fettered, that the Britifh public can fuller
little Ly the want of them.
