The Inveterate gun-brig haw
4 anchored at Deal, f iom the coast
of Fiance, with dispatches from
the admiral on that station, The
French are collecting their small
craft on the whole line of their
coasts, and availing themselves
of every opportunity of stealing
along their shallows to their
more northern depots,. The
substance of the dispatches by
the Inveterate gun-brig, is be
lieved to be an urgent request to
government for the employment
of a still smaller craft; and an
addition to the force of the gun
biigs now upon that station.—lt
appears that the fire of the lar
ger ships cannot reach the seve
ral flotillas which skirt along the
coast, and escape under their ve
ry eves.
A change ofsyatem seems to have
lately taken place in this part of
the French marine. Whatever
may be their purpose, thev ar
recovering from their long in
activity. Immediately upon th
arrival of the Inveterate, all the
gun bng9 and sloops of war,
at that time at Deal, wsrc dis
patched to take their several
stations onshe Ficneh coast.

Sir John Newport l3telv wrot*
a letter t the council of the
chamber of commerce, of the
city of Dublin, relative to th
participation of Ireland in the
Eat t-India trade. The object of
the trading interest of Ireland,in
stead of the presentarrarigement,
is to procure the right to send a
ship from that country to China,
w hich mav returniliree’polreland
instead of the pi t Ll-nl&lnprofi:a ’ 11 e
license, to send out a certain
quantity oi goods in English ves
sels.
The answer received by Sir
John Newport has been report
ed to the Commercial Body of
Dublin, a t a meeting called for
that purpose. It states, “that
a trade fro 'll Ireland is not prac
ticable to any beneficial purpose
under the act passed by the Irish
I’arliainent in 1793, as by that
act, the trade from Ireland to
India is restricted to the Penin
sula of India, and does not com
prehend China, which is gene
rally conceived to be the most
lucrative object of Eastern ad
venture/ and the exports troiu
Ireland to the East Indies arc
restricted ta goods, the growth,
produce, and manufacture of his
majesty’s European dominions;
consequently the Irish merchant
is excluded from shipping spe
cie or bullion, so necessary lor
Indian adventures; & also from
shipping wines, and other princi
pal articles that arc left open bv
the Company to be subjects of
English private trade.”
