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.

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.” I'tbrunrxj 25.
