lowed with the reft of the fhipi, sni soon abfefved
thatjhe was Handing in and near the mouth of the
Garonne. Captain Keati, however, with much
address, cut her off from the enuance, having pass
ed, with the Galatea, between the Chevrier bank
and the light house : the enemy then wore (hip, and
stood along (hore to the fonthward, being ptirfued
by "all the squadron, and keeping within half gun
ftiot of the coast. The Artois and Sylph, which
had been detached to examint two large (hipa that
appeared suspicious, continued their course in the
offing, when, about 9P. M. the horizo. became
4ark, attended with violent squalls of extreme heavy
rain, lightning and thunder, so as tr> oblige the
Galatea, and this (hip, who were nearly within
(hot of the frigate, to (horten fail, and keep away
at timet, and it was supposed (he had bore up, as
wc lolt light of her.
1 therefore stood with the Anfon so the north
ward, thinking (he might have hauled her wind that
way ; but at day light, feeing nothing of her, tack
cd, and continued our course to the southward, un
til we discovered her run on shore, with the loss of
hei mails, within five leagues of Arcaffun, and the
Artoil, Galatea and Sylph (who had seen her again 1
(luring the night) at anchor near her, when (he was
boarded with much ri(k and gallantry, by the boSts 1
of the Aitois and Galatea, under the command of <
lieutenants Lloyd and Carter.
It was impoflible to prevent the men from endea- (
vouiing to escape on (hore, although great numbers 1
fell victims in the attempt, owing to the great furf i
and fwfcllthat set upon the beach, and of cout/e ma
ny were drowned.
Her captain, and some of the principal officers,
with several Portuguese prisoners, part of the crews '

this (hip (which was named l'Androraaque, a Very '
fine and large frigate, pierced for 48 guns, twelve '
pounders, moll of which had been thrown over- '
board, and her compliment 300 men) belonged,
were brought on board the (hips of this squadron, 1
when she was set on fire by our people, and complete- '

The officers and boats crews of the above meati

LONDON, September 17.
Yesterday we received by express the Paris jour- '
nalsto the 15th and tliofe of BruiTels '.o the 12th.
By an article inserted in the latter, we are led to
bclicye that Jourdari intended to assemble all hit dif
ferent corps at Frankfort, when it is probable his <
head-quatters are arrived by this time. Some of
the letters pretend that Jourdan's retreat is only a 1
llratagem, calculated to draw the archduke-jnto a a
more fatal snare than that into which he fell by i
Jourdan's retreat across the Rhine at Coblentz, in i
the beginning of the campaign. But we do not c .
concur in this opinion. Jourdan's letters plainly '
shew that he has fuftaitrtd several severe defeats
We jdo not think it improbable that either the arch
duke will cut off Moreau's retreat, or Moreau will
cut off the archduke's. Moreau's army now be- "
comes much more an object of intereil than that of '
Jourdan. Fiom the banks of the Nab to Ramelf
berg, the distance which Jourdan has retreated
since the archduke crossed the Danube at Ingol
ftadt, is full Ijo miles.
