tONDON GJZETT& WEDNESDAY, NOVEMBER 29. Admiralty-Oiffce, JS ovember 29, The Honourable Lieutenant William Wal- deprave, of the Ville de Paris, arrived here thismortMng with dispatches from Vice-A d- roiral lord Col I ins wood, C o in m a a de v -1 n-C hief of his Majesty's ships and vessels in the Medi- terranean, addressed to the Hon. William Wellesley Pole, of which the following are copies t— Ville de Paris, off St. Sebastian; October 20, 1809. SIR—By my fetter of the 16th of Sept. their lordships would be informed of the intelli- gence 1 had received relative to the intended movements of the French squadron, and of my reasons for changing my station to St-Se- bastian. While on this station, an the night of the 22d instant, the Ppmonejoined, and Captain Barrie (who, with indefatigable perseverance, had, with the Akeste, watched the port of Toulon) informed me, that the day before, several of the enemy's squadron had put to sea, and others were coming out whtn he left them, and that there was every appearance of the whole fleet being on the move from the harbour. They had a numerous convoy with them, and, as this movement was made with the first of an easterly wind, there was little doubt of their being hound to the westward. I immediately made the necessary signals for the squadron to be prepared for their recep- tion, and placed the three frigates and sloop, fomone, Hydra, Volon tai re, and Minstrel, to windward, to give Notice of the enemy's ap- proach. On the rviornitiff i Cote 23d, soon after eight o'clock, tbe: Volontnire ifiiade the signal tor a fleet to the eastward white thej continued to-comedown' before the wind, no alteration was made in the squadron, except hy advancing two fast-sailing ships, the Tigrc and Bulwark. At len, the Porarone made the signal, that the enemy had hauled'to the wind and the convoy separating from (he ships a war (which were now discovered to consist or three ithips of the line cniv, two two smaller frigates, of store ships, and a cnnvoy of about twenty sail of vessels) I ordered Rear Admiral Mart).: to chase them, and eight of the best-sailing ships, which, standing on con trarv tacks, might take advantage of the changes of the wiud, which v ns titen variable. Ar two p. m. the Pomone having got far In .indward, was directed hy signal to destroy such, or the convov as cOliJdhè come up with; in the e er- g she burnt two brigs, two bombards, and a ketch The enemy before dark was out of sight, and the sh'ps J chasing 110 i h advanced were standing to the north- ■» i while the squadron with me stretched t. southward* The next morning neither t French nor our- cliaoii g ships were in t:! t. sius morning Rear-Admiral Martin joined •w:h hi* division, as named in the margin, having again fallen in with the enemy on the off the entrance of the Rhone, and on F, • 25th they chased them on shore the Ro- 1of 84 bearing the-flag of n,ep,r~ Aimiral Boudain, and the leon, ol 74, off trout,iguan, were the day following set fire. to by themseves. The lioree, of 74 guns, and a frigate, ran on shore at the entrance of lhe pott of Celte, where there is little pro- bability of either of them being saved. I cannot sufficiency express the high satis- fy rtion I have felt at the intrepid perseverance ci Hear-Admiral Martin, and of the Captains of ships who were with him in the pursuit. Nothing less ardent, or less skilful, would have produced a result so fortunate, where the coast near the Rhone is exceedingly shoal and dangerous, so that some of the ships were, in five and six fathoms water, the weather, thick, and the south-east wind lowing strong. I inclose to you, Sir, Rear-Admirat Mar- tin's letter; and beg to congratulate their t.ordships on three great ships of the enemy heín thus destroyed, without the smallest resistance on their part, or a shot being fired bv the British ships, excepta few by the Tigrc at the Boree, when she was pushing ashore at Cettc of their two frigates, the Ppmone and Pauline, one hauled her wind sometime hi the night, and fetched into Marseilles road. Tbe other part of the Trench squadron are found to rsKiain in Toulon by the ships which have since examined tlnHpört. I have the honour to be, &c. (Signed) 6LLIIVGWOOV.

When the eiiemy'sr.cotlvoY- -was chased on the 23d ult. their transports separated from the ships of war, and, under the protection of an armed store-ship, two bombards, and a zebeck, made for the Bay of Rosas. When the ships of war were disposed of, as related in my letter of yesterday, the convoy became the object of my attention, and on the 20th; the Apollo" was sent off Rosalv, to examine what vessels were there, and how far they were in a situation assailable. The next day I appointed the ships, as per margin t, for this service, under the orders of Captain Hallowell, to bring them out if the wind was favourabte, or otherwise to destroy them. The state of (he wind and sea. would not permit this operation until last night, lvlici)4 after dark, the ships bore up for the Bay, and anchored about five miles from the castle of Rosa.s, under the protection of which castle, of Trinity-fort, and of several other newly-erected batteries, the convoy, consisting of eleven vessels, five of theIn, armed, as per accompanying were moored. The boats beingarranged in separate divisions, the whole were put under the orders of Lieut. Tailour, First Lieutenant of the Tigre, and pro- ceeded to the attack of the enemy, who, although-, be cauid have had no previous intimation of such an euterprixe against him, was found vigilant and completely oa his guard. The ship, whicly was a smaller sort of trieate, was inclosed in-, boarding nettings, and a gun boat advanced a head of her for the look-out; on being hailed, and the alarm guii fired, our boats stretched' out; the crews, at the highest-pitch of animation, fill- ingtheair -.ithiheir cheers Leac division took the par,t pr^viovsly allotted to it.; the armed ship was boarded at all points, aud carried in a few minutes, notwithstanding a spirited and sturdy resistance -which the enemy made; all their armed vessels, v/ere well defended, but the Bri- tisii seamen and marines, determined to subdue themi were not to he repelled, even by a force found to be doable that which was expected; and besides the opposition mailc, by the vessels, the guns from the castle, the forts in the Bay, the gUll boats, and musketry from the beach, jsept-a constant fire on them." On the Opening of day, every ship or vessel was either burnt, or brought aided by the light winds, which then came (lie tiinit, and the whole of the convoy that, came from Toulon for the supply of the French army in Spain has been destroyed, with the ex- ception of the, frigate, which escaped to Mai scities, and one store-ship, not since heard of. I cannot conclude this narrative, without an expression of the sentiment which the execution of this bold enterprise has inspired me with, and the respect and admiration I feel for those who performed it. 4 In the first place; success greatly depended upon the previous arrangement which was made by Captain Hallowejl, with a judgment Mid fore- sight that distingiiidies that-officer, in every ser- vice he is employetf on; the division of the boats the preparations of tire (11aterial, and providing them with every implement that contingency re- quire, established confidence throughout the whole and in this lie was ably assisted by the experience per en(, and zeal of Captains Wodehouse, Bullen, Taylor and Hope. The brigs were under sail, as near the vessels attacked as the liffhr winds would al- low, and Captain Hall^wel) speaks in high terms tf praise of the conduct of their commanders, Crawley, Taitt, and Vv.ilson, the First Lieute- nant, Taitour, led to the assault in a most gallant manner, and was followed by the other officers, as if each was ambitious of his place, anddesire.d to be first; the whole party bravely maintained the character which Britishseameti have estab- lished for themselves. I am sorry I have to add, that the loss has been considerable, of which Hnclose a list. Lieute- nant Taitt, of the Voiontairt;, an excelIent and brave young officer, and Mr. Caldwell, Master's- mate of the Tigre, a youth of great promise, were the.onJyomcersslaiC!. V, Many -officers of the fleet were desirous of being volunteers in this service. I could not resist the earnest request of Liéuténaüts :tófd Yiscount=Bal- gotiic, the rlofl J. A" Maudc, and the Hon. "W. Waldegrave, of the Ville de Paris, to have the command of boats., in which they, displayed that spirit which is,inherent injthem.^ I transmit also fJaptain Ha-Howetrs le^er, re- lating his proceedings,, with lists of the officers who commanded boats, and had appointments in this service, and of the vessels burnt and captured.

My D- In obedience to your Lordship's order of the 30th ultimo, I proceeded to the Bay of Rosas, with the ships and sloops named in the margin, where, finding it impracticable to attack the enemy's convoy while under Weigh, (the wind being at-Si-EV and a heavy swell) I anchored the ships of the squadron, yesterday evening after dark, about five miles of the town of Rosas, and detached all the boats, under the command of Lieutenant Tailour, First of the Tigre, to de- stroy them; the spirited manner iii which he led them on to the attack, commanded the admiration of every Olle preseut; and the gallant manner in which he was Supported^ reflects the highest ho- nour c-n every .pcfa^p. pn tfris j|»rv»ce.

Our loss has been severe, and among the list of killed I have to lament, the loss of Lieutenant Taitt, of the Votontaire, of whom Captain But- len speaks in high terms, as an officer who has distinguished himself upon many occasions and Mr. Caklwell, Masters-mate of the Tipre the latter has a widowed mother, in distressed circumstances, who looked to him for comfort and support.

[A Letter from Vice-Admiral Lord Collingwood inclosed the following His Majesty^s SMp, Amptyon,>off thc_ CO(ist of Fi-ilil, SIR,—I beg leave to inform you of a, most gallant and successful attack made by the boats of this ship and a detachment of seamen and marines on the enemy's forcoat Cortelazzo, con- sisting of six gun boats, and, a convoy.- of mer- chant Trabaculos, moored in a strong position under a 'battery of four 24-poanders,-at.th.e mouth, of the Piavic, and in sight of the Italian squadron, at Venice.. lhád reconnoitred them on the 24th instant, and found it impracticable, froindhe shallowness of the water, to get thtj ship in, but I conceived they mif:h"' be cm out by (he boats, provided I 9 could.carry th-~ bSiterj ;• and this (ipibioti was- coiiSrmed by a fisherman I detained the same evening,, who gavme a very 'correct account of their force and liltuatiorz., to. prevent any sus- oicion of my design, I. kept out of sight of the land till (lie evening of the 26th, When I crowded all possible sail, and we anchored off the Piavie, atone op the. morning of the 27 th.

The battery was a complete work, with ;t ditch, and a chetaux de trize round it, and oiii- riieii entered it first by -scaling ladders: the Com- mandant of the tort made his escape with some of his men. two were found dead and one woun- ded, the rest, consisting of 16 of the 3d regiment light infantry, were made prisoners. Having spiked the guns, aadtotatty destroyed the battery and barrack, the whole detachment was re-im- barked by one P, M. I have now, Sir, the additional pleasure of saying, that this service was performed without the. loss of a man on our part. One marine alone was wounded by an explosion of powder after we had possession, but he is doing well. The gallantry and roodeonduct of the com- manding Lieutenant, Mr, Pbillott, hi the execu- tion of this attack, speaks for itself; I have only to say, he had the entire conducting of it, and on this, as on many other occasions fully justified the confidence I placed in him.

-FASHIONS" For the Month, extracted from u La Belle Assemble t or, Bell's court and fashionable I, magazinefor the present month. At thil middle season of the year the reins of fashion may be said to be wholly at .the discre- tion of tasteand fancy, whose sway, because less absolute, is productive of greater variety, and frequently combining elegance with novelty we must therefore endeavour to select such articles of attire a& will appear to us to merit at a more decisive period the full stamp and approbation of fashiotl For the out-door costume, mantles and pelisses are a mode of dress yet unrivalled. They are often constructed of rich doiJble twilled sarsnct, or velvet; but Merino cloth holds a decided pre,. eminence- The or bishop's pwple, line(t ov fa Marigold tar's net; they are made to fit tight to the figure, wrapping over the bosom, and buttoniug down on the right side, with small raised silk buttons) connned to the waist (which is long) by a band and buckle. To give breadth over the,hosom an^ back (now considered Indispeiisible,) the arm .hole is cut so small as nearly to exclude the cap of the shoulder; and to encrease this effect, is placed a half-sleeve (very shallow) over the long sleeve, trimmed the same as the pelisse. Figured bindings of velvet, in a wave pattern, are most in esteem. Gold is becoming rather too gtiucral.-Embroidered bor- derings in chenille are chiefly confined to dress, or at most are only seen in carriages but many of our elegant belles declaim coloured edgings altogether, Mauties are made longer and wider than last month; they have full cotiars conimed at the throat with long bows and ends of corded ribband finished with tassels, left plain in the back, and plaited full oil the shoulders, to admit of their folding over the arms and bosom. The tioods have also increased in dimensions, and now serve as a temporary defence against the night air, or sudden currents, of wind. In full dress, caps of white satin, ornamented with ostrich feathers, or turbans of silver or gold tissue, with rich embroidered handkerchiefs, are most in esteem.

The great mildness and unnaual openness of the weather during the whole of the month, has contributed to keep tbeccattle stock longer-out in the pastures than is commonly the case, by which the consumption of more expensive winterfodder is prevented, which is a matter of great impor- tance to the farmer. rIlie various sorts of greed food employed for live stock at this period of the year, are also in- most places good and abundant,, whifch, with the large supply of potatoes, and other kinds of food, musf secure the firmer, m i gi-eat measure, from the danger of scarcity of cattle fodder during the w inter season.

In the publication we just alluded to, Mr. Canning enlers into a detail of the circumslauces connected with the tran- saction, and then recapitulates the whole, in the following words, and which indeed com- prehends I be merits of the case. From this series of facts, says Mr. Canning, it appears, "That, in April I made a representation to the King's First Minister, on the general state of the (idminqtratiou, and that, in the course ot the discussions arrisiu, out of that representation, I proposed on public grounds, not, as Lord Castlereagh appears to have been 'informed, his removal from the Administra- tion, but the alternative of a change, either in the War or Foreign Department.
