The English squadron has availed it.
self OF a nor.herly wind to sail out Of the
channel. While the English admiral
was negotiating the batteries were con-
structing under the direction. of French
officers all around our port, and mounted
with upwards of 600 pieces of cannon.
Within few days, the forts of the Oar.
danelles were put in the most tenable
condition. Before three weeks shall
have eIaPsed, the Dardahelles will be in
a state altogether imPregnable like our
port. In the canal the English were
struck with astonishment at the sight of
the immenee population of the coast.
Their Boats which put otto fetch water
and other provisions, were not able to
land. They have, therefore, done ex-
tremely we'll to she n OF with all possible
speed. The grand SeiSnior has adopted
the same measures in his dominions a.
saiHst the English and their property as
the French emperour. The seals have
been put on the psldce Of the English
ambassador, as we'll as on all EGg Iish
warehouses. All persons not belong
ing to the military are to be discarded,
and after this measure shall be carried
into eject, the shops viii Sc o7s aed

The latest accounts from the theatre
Of war seem to announce great events.
1t is reported that theTight wing Of the
French army, under marshal Massena,
has made . movement upon the left Of
the Russians. Ifthb be true, a deci-
sixe action appears Inevitable. The 4.
larm excited by thtse movements are
compensated by nav hopes of peace.
All the letters from the theatre Of war
say that proposals of peace have been
made; aud It Is kn OWN that negotiations
to which the presence Of M. De Kle;st
At the French headquarters have given
rise, are not entirely broken off.
