ThE SWANSEA, Pill) A Y; KOV. 8. -• It is our disagreeable cuty this week to commu- nicate tiieconfirmation otthe unexampled victories obtained by the French it Germany, which will be found fully and acciirate^ detailed in our preced- ing p'?tge. If, however, he intelligence received this day be correct, that the Prussians have ac- tually joined" the allies, it is not too much to pre- sume that Bonaparte's success will not be of much longer duration; With mingled emotions of joy and sorrow we turn from this subject to present our readers with the official details of a IlECISIVEVICTORY OVER.THE COMBINED FLEETS, achieved by Britain's darling son, the ever-to-be- iamentcd LORD NELSON. From the-London Guv He Extraordinary. ■Admiralty-office, Nov. 0. Dispatches of w-hich the following are copies,, were received at the Admi- ralty this day at one.a'c ck "*1. from Vice-Admi- ra.l Collingwood, LommaurJerm Chief of his Ma- jesty's ships and vessel t C tiz:; Euryalug, off Cape Trafalgar, QcL S'li Sm-The ever to be lamented death of Vice- Admiral Lord Viscount Nelson,' who, in the late conilict with the enemy, fell in the hour of victory, leaves to me the duty of informing my Lords Com- missioners of the Admiralty, that on the 19th hist, it was communicated to the Commander in Chief from the ships watching the motions of the cbemy in Cadiz, that the combined fleet had put to sea; as they sailed with light winds westeilv, his. Lordship concluded their destination was the Mftlaerraneau, and immediately made ail sail .for the Streights' entrance, with the British squadron, consisting ot twenty-seven ships, th/ee of them sixty-fours," where his Lordship was informed by Capt. Black- wood, (whose vigilance in watching, and giving no- tice of the enemy's movements, hjis been highly nieritorious) that they had nqt j-et passed the Streights. On Monday the 21st inst, at da\light, when Cape Trafalgar bore E. by S. about seven leagues, the enemy was discovered six or seven nines to the pa.st.ward, the wmd about west, and very liglit, the Commander m Chief immediately made the signal for the fleet to bear up in two columns, as they are formed in order of sailing; a mode of attack, his Lordship had previously directed, to avoid the in- (onvenience and delay in forming a line of battle in tin; usual manner; '] he enemy's line consisted of thirty-three ships (of which t i diu.en were French and li teen Spa,nish) conim mdetl in Chief by Ad- miral Villeneuve; the Sp iniards, under the direc- tion of Gravina, wore, with their heads to the northward, and formed their line of battle with great closeness and correctness; but as the .mode 'of attack/was unusual, so the structure of their line- was new;—it formed a crescent convexing to lee- ward-so that, in leading down to their centre, I had both their van and rear|abaft the beam; be- fore the lire opened, every alternate ship was about a cable's length to windward of her second a-head. and a-stern, forming a kind of double line, and ap- T> 're when on their beam, to leave a very little 't' f rv il between thefn; and this without crowding their ships. Admiral Villeneuve was in the Buceri- Lure in the centre, and the Prince of Asturias bore ,Gravirlais nag in the rear: but the French and Spa- nish ships were mixed without any apparent regard to order oi national sqoadrpn. Asthêrnode of our attack had been previously determined on, and communicated to the Tlag-oih- cet-s, and Captains, few signals were-necessary, and none were made, except; to direct close order ,as the lines bore down. The Commander in Chief in the Victory led the. weather column, and the Royal Sovereign, which bore my flag, the lee. The action began at twelve o'clock, by the lead- ing ships of the columns breakinc throuiih the ciie- my's line, the Command«r in • T»ief abmjf the tenth ship Irom the van, the second in command About the twelfth irom the rear, leaving the ya,n of the enemy unbccu pied; the succeeding .ships freaking,1 through, in all parts, astern their leader-, and engaging the enemy at tiie muzzles of their gun8!; the cotmict was. severe; the enemy's ships were fought with a gailantry'liighiy honour J.;le to their oiiicers; but the attack on tliem was irresistible, .and it. pleased the Almighty., Disposer.of all events, io grant his Majesty's- arms a complete «»iid glo- rious victory; about three P. M. many of the ene- my's ships having* struck their colours, their line gave v/a^ Admit il Oraviru', v ith tf n ships jc-ining rheir frigates to 1 -ewai d, stood to\v.tr:is Cadiz. Tin: five headmost slnps'tntheir van tacked, and stand- ing to the southward, to..th;> windward of the Bri- tish line, were engaged, and the sternmost of thern taken; the others went off', lea\ tug to his squadron nineteen ships oi th" line, (of which two are first rates,, the Santissima Trinidad and the >S4nta- Anna) with three flag-olhcers, viz. Admiral Villeneuve, the Commander'in Chief, Don Ignatio Maria D'Aliva,Vice-Admira.l,and theSpanish Rear- i Admiral DonTtaVtazar Hidalgo Cisneros. After such a, victory it may appear unnecessary to enter into encomiums on the, particular parts taken by the several commanders; the conclusion says more on the subject than I have language to express; the spirit which animated all was the same; when all exert themselves zealously in their country's service, all deserve that their high merits should stand recorded; and never was-high merit more conspicuous than in the battle I have de- scribed. ■ TheAchille (a French 74), after having surren- dered, by some mismanagement of the Frenchmen took fire and blew up; two hundred ot her men were saved by the tenders. A circumstance occurred d'uring the actiori so strongly marks the invincible spirit ot seamen, when engaging the enemies of their coun- try, that I cannot resist the pleasure I have in' making it known to their Lordships; the was boardedbyaçcident, or design, by a French ship on one side, and a Spaniard on tin- other; the contest was vigorous, but, in the end, the combined ensigns were.torn from the poop, and the British hoisted in their places. Such a battle could not be fougHt without sus- taining a great loss of men. I have not only to la- ment, in common with the British navy, and'the British nation, in the fall of the Commander in Chief, the loss of a hero, whose name will be im- mortal, and his memory ever dear to his country; but my heart is rent with the most poignant grief for the death of a friend, to whom, by lIlany years intimacy, and a perfect knowledge of the virtues of his mind, which inspired ideas superior to the com- mon race of men, I was bound by the strongest ties ofanection; a grief to which even the glorious oc- casion in which he -fell, does not bring "consola- tion which perhaps it ought; his Lordship received a musket ball in his left breast, about the middle -0 e of the action, and sent an officer to me immediately with his last farewell; and soon after expired. I have also to lament.th,e loss of those excellent officers, Captains Duff of the M and Cooke of the Bellerophon; I have .yet he 1 of none others. I fear .'the numbers that h 1 1 c will be found very great, when the returns come to me; but it having blown a gale of wind ever since the action, I have not yet Had it iti my power to cóiiectånjr reports froti'i the ships.. *s- The Royal Sovereign having lost her masts,-ex- cept the .tottering foremast/ I. called the Euryalus tome, while the action continued, winch ship ly- uin; witii»n ii nl, made.my signals, a service Capt. hi oi 1 perronned with great attention; after tnc actmn, 1 shifted-my flag 1 > h r, i rat I might m re e co'ivmi-nicate my-o<d is ti, and collect ships, aud. towed, .the" Royal -Sovttci,u out to sea- ward. fne wnole fleet were now in a very perilous situation, many dismasted, all shattered, in thir- teen fathom water, off the shoals of Trafalgar; and when I made the signal to prepare to anchor, few of the ships had an anchor to let go, their cables being shot; but the same good Providence which aided us through such a day preserved us in the night, by the wind shifting a. few points, and drift- ing tlie ships off the land, except four of the cap- tured dismasted ships, which are now at anchor oft Trafalgar, and I hope will ride safe until those gales are over. Having thus detailed the proceedings of the fleet on this occasion, I beg to congratulate their Lord- ships on a victory which, I hope, will add a ray to the glory of his Majesty's crown, and be attended with public benefit to our countryr.

LThe cap- tains of the Prince and Neptune cleared the Trini- dad and sunk her. Captains Mope, Baynton, and Malcolm, who joined the fleet this moment from Gibraltar, had, the charge of destroying four others, The Redoubtable sunk astern of the Swiftsure while in tow. The Santa Anna, i have no doubt,' is sunk, as her side was almost entirely beaten in; and such is the shattered condition of the whole .of them, that unless the weather moderates I doubt whether shall be able to carry a ship of them into port. I hope their Lordships will approve of what I (haying only in coiibideration the destruc- tion of the enemy's fleet) have thought a measure or absolute necessity.

It is understood, that three days after the action thirteen sail of the French and Spanish line came out oi the harbour, thinking that our fleet might have been dispersed in the heavy gale, besides be- ing mauled in tlie action upon eleven of our ships; however, Marhig down, they returned to port immediately. But, what a. man have We lost! The deepest sorrow pervades the crp.w.s of our victorious fleet, and every Briton must bitterly lament his fall. Af- ter receiving the fatal wound, he displayed all the great qualities which' so eminently adorned his re-, vered character: sensible that his dissolution ap- proached, he 'expressed-a.wish to breathe his last upon English ground but knowing that to be im- possible, he exclaimed the will if Geti be dune," and in a few moments expired. Stay, daring Spirit! e'er thou reach the skies, Lost to thy country, deign to hear her prayer— 0 stay, in pity, tilf her grateful sighs Shall waft in tdumph England's Hero there. A1.'

,.J Cork, Oct. 31.—At six o'clock on- Monday even- ing, the WesMudia. neet, consisting of 47 vessels, siiled from our harbour, under convoy of his Ma- jesty's ship Fisgard, Captain Bolton, and his Ma- jesty's ship Wolverine, Captain Smith. Lieutenant General Sir Eyre Coote and'suite, sailed on board the Fisgard, and Major General Balfour and suite, on board the Robert of Liverpool. Six regiments of infantry are embirki ig at Monkstown, which will proceed to the Downs to join the German Legion, the brigade of the -root guards, and the j other troops already assembled there in transports. This force, it is thought, will effect ajunction with the Swedes and Russians in Swedish Pomerania; and the whole will make an effort for the libera- tion of Holland from the yoke of France.—Some of the regiments in this garrison have received orders to hold themselves in readiness for em- barkation. i, Waterford, Nor. 5.-His Majesty's ship Egyp- I, tienne has captured a vessel laden with naval I,' stores, which has arrived in Baltimore harbour.

One of the birds made its escape unhurt; the other lay sense- less on the but in a little time recovered, and was set at liberty by the young gentlemen. JohnThomas and.
