of wjj-: th : l itter brings word that in r.orr
lujdown the Mediterranean from Naples
in company with the Centaur, they feii
w'.tli three fnyates, and two corvettes, who

their names art the Atcefte, of 36 guns
460 men, with an admiral's flag, Jur.o, 44

500 men, and two corvettes of 16 guns each:
t.v,> cutters were, in light, and the fleet with,
in hearing when the above captures were
ma ie. The next day they joined lord Keith
who descried the combined fleet, and lent
the I'enelope cutter to reconnoitre, wh o
was attacked by a French brig, which lh.e
beat off, but a Spanilh frigate coming down
rear of the enemy, confifling of 38 fhijn,
the Englilh only 34; the adtion commerced
1 at 7 in the morning-, and at 2 o'clock ton.
tinued with ijreat fury ; the Haarlem's offi
cers could theu only fee 28 of the enemy
feveial of .which had loft their topmafts—
the action was fought on the Bth iuftant.
We learn by this conveyance that the En
.glifh squadron has taken .three French fri
gates, h brig, and a corvette, off Alexan
dria, and sent thcin into Gibraltar.
We have the plcafurc of stating, that the
homeward-bound Jamaica and Lisbon fleets
haVe pa fit J by Portfmoutli in perfett fafety.
We stated yesterday the arrival at the ad.
lniralty of Mr. Jackson, master of the Ville
de Paris, lord St. Vincent's flag fliip, with
dispatches from his lordlhip, at Gibraltar.
Mr. Jackson came liornc in la Suffifante.
We have by this conveyance the confirm*,
tion of the jun&iou of the French and Spa
-111 ft 1 fleets, conlifting of forty-four fail us
the line, off Cartliagena, t<n the lid ult,
and of their having- failed again on the 24th,
with a view as re-pafliniy the Streights of
Gibraltar. The enemy's fleets were feeu
from Gibraltar on tie §th instant, attempt
ing to beat through the Gut ; but from the
ft ate of -.he winds, it is not expedled they
could accomplish this objett foaner than tie
12th.
Intelligence of the enemy's movements
had )ieen dilpatched oil the 2ad u!t. to lord
Keith, who whs supposed to be off Gerce,
afiilling the operations rf the allied armies
ill Italy ; and as the enemy's fleets had met
Nvith such adverfc winds, it is thought not
improbable but his lordftiip would <?ome up
vmh them before they Could pa fs the (freights.
Yeflerday evening capt. George Burltofl,
of the Haarlem of 6 \ guns, arrived also at
the admiralty from Gibraltar : the Haarlem
failed a day later than la Saffifante ; flw was
chafed on l.er home by a part of the
French and Spaniflr fleet, and oil the 9th

LONDON, July 25.
The intelligence captain Burlton brings, '
confirms the reports th.it" the French and;
Spaßifh fleets have effetted a jun&ion, had
attempted to pais the Giit of Gibraltar, !
(most probably with the view of connteraft-' 'j
i:ig the threatened expedition against Hoi- |
land by the renewed menace of a descent on. -
Ireland) but beingbaffled in thdt attempt by, 'j
the itate of the wind, they had returned uj» »
the Mediterranean, with a view of getting -
again into Girthagena.
A rumour, however, has been very gene
rally circulated in town, that the Britifliaud
