F It is ftrongly minded in the higher circles, that a
Treaty of Alliance, Cffenfive and Defenfive, 'was a
few days age concluded between his BILITAIIIIIIC Ma-
parr and the Estrsaoa of Resets. and agned by
Lord Hammerer and the Ruffian Ausbairador, Count
Wetioa EON To this Treaty the Element of Mae
weer will, It is Paid, be invited to accede ; and aeons
hopes are entertained that he will accept the hsvits-
tion. From ezpreffions in his MAJESTY'S Speech
to Parliament. there Teems rufous to think that this
report may not be dame of foundation.

Laf night we received the Nape Orareatt so the
3 tit alt. They contain Paris news of the as*, one

expeited in Holland, to infpc& the troops Rationed

Dutch, however, cannot conceal their fears of our
cruifers,which they (late to be every where in motion.

MAJIISTY was fo well fatisfied with their behaviour, that
he made feveral officers members of the Legion offio-
nour, and diftributed arms of honour among the men.
During this &am fight, Bo gave the word
of command on More himfelf, and was attended by
the principal Generals of his army on the coaß,
intended to remain at Mend forty-eight hours more,
and it was fuppofed that the different divifions of the

ceffively go through the fame ezercife. Seurat ac-
cidents happened, by the burning of two guns, and
near too men were, in the evening, fent to the hof
pital, being ill from remaining fo long in the water.

determination. That Ilaten.ent appeared in the STAIL

Agent, the Prefident Da Mersa, in tiapport of the
propofition, and the noble and generous letter of the
King of Faawes to the King of Num*, which we
