Russell was at Plymouth on 20 January 1795 and so shared in the proceeds of the detention of the Dutch naval vessels, East Indiamen, and other merchant vessels that were in port on the outbreak of war between Britain and the Netherlands.[3]
In 1797 Russell was commanded by Captain Henry Trollope, who led her at the Battle of Camperdown.
On 24 February 1801, Lloyd's List reported that Russell had towed "Duckingfield Hall", Pedder, master, into Torbay. She had been sailing from Antigua to London when of the Scilly Islands another vessel had run foul of her. Шаблон:Ship had lost her foremast, and her fore, main, and mizzen topmasts; the vessel that ran into her was believed to have foundered.[4]
In March, Russell was under the command of William Cuming, part of the Baltic fleet sent to break up the League of Armed Neutrality. The fleet assembled in the Kattegat in March 1801 but on 22 March a storm came up that dispersed some of the vessels. Both the gun-brigs Шаблон:HMS and Шаблон:HMS were driven under the guns of Varberg Fortress. The Swedes captured Blazer, but Russell towed Tickler to safety.Шаблон:Sfnp
Russell and was at the Battle of Copenhagen on 2 April.[5] Despite going aground early on in the battle,[6] Russell was able to engage the Danish ship Prøvesteenen, and when she surrendered, send boats to take possession of her.[7] In 1847 the Navy awarded the Naval General Service Medal (1847) with clasp "Copenhagen 1801" to all the surviving claimants from the battle.[8]
Lloyd's List (LL) reported on 10 June 1803 that Russell had burnt a 14-gun French navy brig coming from San Domingo.[9]
On 16 October 1803 she was three days out of Rio and in company with the fourth rate Шаблон:HMS. They were escorting the East Indiamen Шаблон:Ship, Шаблон:Ship, Шаблон:Ship, Princess Mary, Anna, Ann, Шаблон:Ship, and Essex, all bound to Bengal.[10] Also, Grampus carried £100,000 for the British East India Company.
On 12 February 1808 Russell arrived off the Danish possession of Tranquebar where she landed troops of the 14th Regiment of Foot and the Honourable East India Company's artillery. Tranquebar capitulated without resistance.[11]Шаблон:Refn
