NAVAL.-Admiral Linois, after leaving part of his troops at the Cape of Good Hope, set sail for Pondicherry, with one ship of seventy-four guns, two frigites, and several transports, containing three thousand men.

-

which sailed from Ferrol under the command
of Admiral Hartsink. - Three English ships
have been carried into Vigo in Spain, by a
French privateer of 14 guns: One of them is
an armed corvette with a cargo wrth two mil-
lions of livres.-The convoy destined for Gib-
raltar and Malta, consisting of twenty eight sail,
with three frigates, arrived at Gibralaar in 21
days from Portsmouth. They made two small
captures on the passage. The commissioner
of marine at Bourdeaux, has written to the
Chamber of Commerce, that no more privateers
are to be fitted out there. Similar orders have
been given in several other ports.-At Ostend the
first gun-boat, for the descent on England, was
launched on the 31st of August; numbers of
others are nearly ready, and a ship of 74 guns
was to have been launched on the 17th instant.
Several Blackenburg fishing boats got into
Ostend on the 22d: they are to carry a
24-pounder and 100 men each.-The following is
said to be a correct account of the gun boats, &c.
in each of the different ports: at Dunkirk 160,

haven, with an intention of escaping into the
North Sea. On the 8th instant Lieut. Gibbons,
of the hired cutter Joseph, discovered the Maria
privateer, of Guernsey, in chice of two brigs;

St. Maloes. The other was taken by the Maria,
and proved to be an English brig from Moga-
dore to London.-On the 12th, Capt. Hallowell,
in the Argo, captured the privateer L'Oiseau,
of 10 guns and 68 men, 9 days from Roche-
fort-On the 14th, Capt. Owen, in the Im-
mortalité, in company with the Perseus and
Explosion bombs, attacked the batteries of
Dieppe. The firing was continued on both
sides for three hours, when the lee making
strong, and the town having taken fire badly
in one place, and slightly in two others, he
proceeded off St. Vallery en Caux, where he
opened a fire for an hour. The batteries were
soon deserted, and the inhabitants fled in every
direction Capt. Owen thinks that from the
manner in which the shells burst, they must
have done considerable damage.-On the 14th
Admiral Sir James Saumarez, in the Cerburus,
in company with the Charwell and Carteret
cutter, and the Terror and Sulphur bombs, at-
tacked Granville. A brisk fire was kept for a
long time, and from the number of well-directed

shells which were thrown from the vessels
under his command, Sir James supposes that
very considerable damage has been done. A
few shells were thrown in the evening with-
out much effect, but on the next day the
attack was renewed, and a well-directed fire
was continued for five hours, when the tide
made it necessary for the squadron to with-
draw.--On the 20th the hired cutter Princess
