I
the Kill, the valour. the pride of this gallant
officer, have not been cxpoitd to the mortifica-
ton Of defeat, and that the ives of many brave
men have been fpared. From all the enquiry
we have been enabled to male, we could derive
no hope Of the fuccefs of this expedition. The
| expence of its preparation has been, if we are
rightly Informed, very comfortable, aud what
is the return to the country The whole fcheme
ut this projected attack upon Boulogne was,
| from the beginning, we undertand, pronnunc-
| ed impratficahle bv fome officers of the highelt
| character (; hut Till it was per6fted in by the
fame fpirit of obftinacy and folly which dcvifed
| and tent forth the renewed c'tamarans.
Some people rejoice that Genera! Mack is to
he brought to trial; hut the truth is, that. like
| iome Generals of our own, h. has been tried too
| often already.
General Mack did carry into effect his noble
| reto'ution TO eat horfrs; but the fpcechcs If
crihed to them be genuine, he will foon be conf
pclled to eat his own svordJ.
The fecond expedition defined FOR the con-
tlnent is expected to fail in the courfe of fort
night. The 9th, cath, 36th, and seth rcgi-
ments, which are to form part Of Il, are now
on their way from Cork. The trnnfports with
thoie corps on board, accompany the home
ward bound Weft-India Rect under convoy of
his majeity's fhips Africane, Druid, and Hee-
| ma, the whole of which arrived in the Channel
on Monday, and are hourly expected in the
/ Downs.
The Hccla has towed into the Downs the Sa-
| gittarius, which fhc picked UP on the night of
| the 2lst inst. off Boulogne, full of water. She
was prevented from linking, and the crew f,v-
ed, by Sir Sidney Smiths plan of lining with
| cork in imitation of the life boats; whether
much damage has been futained by the ff,ps. is
not yet known. Three, feme accounts fay fix,
| of the launches went down, hut their crews
| were faved; the Bitter. as we ltated on Saturday,
is iuppofed to have blownup.
The Gemini, one of Sir Sidney Smiths dou-
bic boats, getting too near the French coat OH
| "Wednesday, was fired into by a French gun
boat, and, we are forty to fay, two men were
| killed and three wounded.
On Tuefday night ten-oared galley of ours,
IN recommending the French row-boats, fell in
by chance with one of their outermot. An
action Immediately commenced between them,
which lated for fome time. Ono of our gal
ant tars was fplit through the head by French
tahre; another was 70 much wounded in the
thigh that it is feared ampntation will he necef-
larry; two others are alto Nightly wounded.
he French boat made her cfcape. but is fup-
pofed not without comfortable lofs, as The was
| very full or men. Our boat returned to the
Antelope, to which ihe was belonging.
The French appear to be very much dir,p-
pointed by the conitant retreat OF the Auifri.ns
and Rufians, who had they remained in the
Inn, would have been furrounded. 1t is not
expected now that they will flop till thew come
to kloitermGik, on the Danube, where it is
thought they will take frong petition TO cover
Vienna. The French, according to letters from
Munich of the 81, have advanced to Wells.
