Assure yourfelf the French are meditat ing a heavy blow against England, and it will soon take ef fect, if the ministry can compass the abolilhment of the FarmersGentral, and lay an equal tax on the people; they will by this means increase the revenue 300 millions of livres, and get rid of 00,000 collectors* somewhat refembl iig our excifemen tnerefore detestable. The aim of the French ministry Teems to be to get a strong body of men in the Weft-Indies, before they declare themselves; for this pnrpofe there is scarcely a single Ihip fails for the iffands without soldiers on board it. The English who are here on the spot talk very freely among themselves of an approaching rupture, and indeed every thing bears the appearance of it. How this will be relilhed in England you bell know who are on the spot.” Extra3 of a letter from Dunkirk, dated August 20. “ Believe none of the reports relative to the demolition of the works of this place.—The cunette, it is true, is de ll roved, and a few of the outworks, which might be re built in a month ; but the great canal, .which is capable of holding 60 men of war, is still, together with its sluices, in excellent order: they seem to have no intention of destroying it, neither will any of the fortifications be demolilhed which can be of any future use to them: there are, it is true, fome workmen who leem to be doing something, but if they go on at the (tew rate th by now do, Ihould it be the intentioiuof the French to demolim these fortifications, the work would be seven years about. I need only tell you, that they have begun the work at the wrong end, to convince you they are not in earned. ** 11 ENRY LEWIS BOUR QJJTN HAS SELL, SUN and Turkey railing Jordan almonds, white and brown sugar-candy, barley-fogar, tamarinds, fagoe, Glauber and Epsom salts, single and refined Britilh oil, Hunter’s drops, Jackson’s bitters, oil ot callor, Turling ton’s balsam, Godfrey’s cordial, Stoughton’s elixir, plain and golden Ipjrit of feurvy-grafs, balsam ot life, balsam of Chili, Bateman’s drops, Squire’s elixir, Daffy’s elixir, Tkr.
