Nothing of importance tins occurred ftnee my letter of September 8. The enemy have been conftan.tly in fight, and have pufhrd their patroles very near our ports, from whom,we have occasionally taken a few priiohers, but we have remained on. .our part cou rtanlly on the defenrtve, to avoid fa tiguing the troops, who continue in good health. The redoubts and forts at the out ports are in general so con > fiderahly flxengthened as to leave lit tle to apprehend from any offenfive efforts of the enemy ; though no part of-the reinforcements which were re quired from different quarters, were arrived. On tlie 1 sth, the enemy marched a condderable corps of troeps, of . which about 400 infantry and zoo ’ cavalry parted in light of our polls from < the east fide of the town, to reinforce Car taint’s main body, which is ported on, the hills to the weft ward. lam certain of the cordial co-operation of admiral Gray in a, who commands the troops of his nation on snore, and •whole active zeal, accommodatingdif pofition, and even temper, give every portible facility to the execution of the public lcrvice, and the support of the coiqmon caufc.

The hufbanchnen in tlie northern department of France have been or dered bv the convention, not to sow their grounds this year, that the allies may not reap the advantage of their next year’s crops.
