WEDNESDAY, DECEMBER 5. The Paris papers contain a summary of me opera- tions of the French armies in Spain.— Under the he;" of Cadiz, il is announced, that the labours for the in- vestment of tbe Road and Isle of I. eon are proceeding; thai SOO cannon have beentnoiruted, and a npm'erou- flotilla created ; the Trocadero is said to have become an important post, « udn fortress able to sustain a siege. — Under the heat's of Andalusia, jVlurcia, La Manchn, Guada! a* arn, Biscay, itrd ti- e ^ sMirias, only a few skir- mishes are detailed, which, as might be cScpected, are sairl to have been uniformly favourable to the French arms.— Our unfortunate expedition against Malaga is likewise noticed $ al the conclusion of which it is an r. otinred that ll, e Duke of Dalmatia has detached the fith corps, and sent it upon- ihe Tagns, Il is also said that Gen. Dumourier, with six regiments of fusilcers of the guards, snd ihe J. anciers of lierg, has gone to Val- ladolid, to ioiil the other corps of the guards which arc there, and to form a reserve to Gen. Drotlet, which will amount to SO, 000 chosen troops. Napoleon, by a decree issued on the 12th bit. has United fo the Front h empire Ihe territory ofthe Valais, under the name of Ihe department of Sitnplon. American papers ! o 3d Nov. are received. There is a letter from Air. Pinckney to Marquis Welles'cy, dated S'Sth Aug. referring to C'hampagny's ( the French minis ter) letter lo Mr. Armstrong, relative to the projected repeal of the Berlin and Milan Decrecs from the 1st Nov. ISIO, and taking for granted " lhat in consequence the British Orders in Council would be repealed." Lord Wellesley's answer is also given; by which Ihe Ameri- can Government is assured, that" whenever the repeal cf the French Decrees shall. have actually taken effect, and llie commerce of neutral nations shall have been restored to the condition in which it stood previously lo the promulgation of tho- e decrees, his Majesty will feel the highest satisfaction in relinquishing a system, which the conduct of fhe enemy compelled him to adopt." [ It is necessary however to add, ihataltho'a month has now elapsed from the period when the Berlin and Milan Decrees v. ere lo cease, yet no public notice to that effect has been given by fhe French government ]— The National Intelligencer ( the Government paper) contains some comments upon the above correspondence, which shew that the American government will not be satisfied \ vitb Ihe lreie rescinding of our Orders in Council; but that it means to require that we should revoke our " blockading proclamations," and renounce the right of searching American vessels for our seamen. A number of regiments are spoken of as intended to reinforce I. ord Wellington ; among them the2dhatt, 42d, 2d halt. 52d, 68th, 75th, and 86th regts, besides other corps from Ireland.

The last French papers contain a Decree by Bona parte, relating to the press in France ; from which it appears that, th'e number of printers having been ante- cedently reduced, those into whose possession the pro- hibited or olher presses hiav Come, are to make declarations of their having such dangerous weapons in tlie r custody, and apply for permission lo use or keep tVcm. In'o what a siate of mental blindness is this Barbarian gradually pi tnging the fairest portion of Europe? lis inhabitants must neilher see, nor hear, except so far as he pleases. Frenchmen, indeed, never enjoyed much liberty of speech or action ; but now they are actually degraded to something below an intelligent class of beings ! and will, if this tyranny Continue, as soon as the lights derived from happier times shall have died awav, be Ihe most ignorant race of men upon earth. How will they wonder, when, at the fall of this tyrant, the general occurrences of Europe, ( from w hich thev are now debarred) are let in upon them 1 The other articles are a Russian Bulletin, giving an account of some successes in the war with the Turks; an order at Berlin for burning English manufactures; and some account of the proceedings in the Swedish Diet* which terminated its Session by a resolution against his Swedish Majesty now in England, and a reduction of the civil list.

This important intel- ligence was brought by the Auckland packet, tvhkh arrived yesterday at Yarmouth, with two mails from Anholt.— The Swedish and German papers, brought by this vessel, add, that an Armistice has been signed be- tween Turkey and Russia.— They also state, lhat an emba go has been laid upon all Danish and Norwegian vessels in the porfs of Norway, for the purpose of rais- ing 4000 seamen ; and that a similar measure was ex- pected in Ihe ports of Zealand: the object is distinctly avowed to be for the equipment of the Imperial fleet in the Scheldt. A similar proceeding has been enforced at Bremen. When the last packet left Malta, on the 22d ultimo, Lucien Bonaparte and family continued at the palace of St. Antonio, which Gen. Oakcs had appointed for him to reside in. By letters of the UlYi ult, received yesterday from Hamburgh, it appears that a new Decree has been passed, inflicting additional pains and penalties on per sons maintaining any intercourse, direct or indirect, with Great Britain and her dependencies. In obedience to this order, a banker at Hamburgh writes to a friend atCarlshamm that he will uot draw, accept, or indorse any bills whatever to which any English merchant is a party. Another correspondent writes, " As I have de- termined to accede to the continental system, t must desire you to write no more on matters ot trade." The goods are delivered up by the Hamburgh merchants to the French Commissioners, thro' the fear of being shot. The French are not satisfied with the quantity of effects obtained, and domiciliary visits are to bo re- newed in Hamburgh. In the Moniteurs, which have be- n received to the 2d inst. we observe a very long aconnt of the military operations in Portugal; and never was there a more laboured attempt to concent err misrepresent ihe real state of fact'. It appears from this story, for which we cannot find room in detail, that the battle of Puzaco was ontv 3 feint! Massena was aware ot the strength of the position, and therefore ordered two brigades to pretend to attack the English, while he tuined their flank ! and all these mai < sums were completely successful, with the loss of only two hundred killed, and from twelve la fifteen hundred wounded I From this specimen of verac ty, the Reader may ju-' ge * hnt reliance is to be placed on the rest of the narrative. We have lord Wellington's positive assertion, backed by all tbe private letters from his aimv, that 2000 of the enemy tvere found dead on Ihe field, and of the 5000 taken at frimbra, it is ascertained that the major part were wounded in the battle of Bnzarn. City Business.— Yesterday a Court of Aldermen was held at Guildhall, which being the first Court, of Alder men in the mayoralty, llie Lord- Mayor went in state from the Mansion- house to Guildhall. The thanks of tho Court were voted to the lale Lord Mayor. The Court inspected the meal- weighers' reports, and or dered the price of bread to be raised half an assize, or Id. in the peck- loaf, to commence to- morrow; the quartern loaf of wheaten is then to be sold for Is. 8d. and household at Is. 1 ; d.— It uas referred to a Com- mittee of the whole Court to consider the present Jet rf Parliament foi regulating the assize of bread, and repor. what alteration ( if any ) should be made therein and what steps are necessary to be pursued thereon. ell a Meeting of the Catholic Committee, in Dublin, on the 1st inst. it was stated by Mr. O'Coiinel, that a report had leached hinv, that " a Roman Catholic private soldier, be- longing to a certain regiment of Militia, for no other offence than for attending at Chapel, to discharge thise religious duties which he, in common with all mankind, owed to his Cod, has heen sentenced to be transported for lite ' I !— and had actually, like a common convict, proceeded so far on his passage into exile as the Isle of Wight"— and, on bis pvo- position, it was resolved, that a subscription should he uiade, for the purpose of defraying the expense of having the matter fullv investigated; and lhat a Sub- Committee, consisting of five, should be appointed to eiiquite into the truth of the facts, und to report to the General Committee. On Sunday morning last the sloop Morning Star, belonging to Plymouth, Lnvis, master, sailed from thence with some passengers, for Fowey ; and when within five miles of the latter port, the sloop was becalmed, ami in consequence, the passengers, togetb' r with the. master of the vessel, took to the boat, for the purpose of getting ashore. Soon after leaving the vessel they weie followed by a huge monster, the nature """• I""" » ••- r - .7 „ i from the Swedish territory, and prohibited front ever \ Orford, at entering it, under pain of death." ' Lordship's From some American papers, just received, we leurn, that the revolution which took place at Santa Fe, on the 20th of August, was effected wilhont bloodshed. The people compelled the Viceroy to liberate the Pa- triots who had been imprisoned, and to transfer his authority to the Cabildo, in whose hands, with the addition of 17 Deputies on the part of the inhabitants, the Supreme Government had heen ad interim deposit- ed. Don Joseph Amar, a native Colonisl, of great talents and respectability, was appointed President. On the 21st a body of 4000 horsemen came in from the countrv to support the new Government, the installa- tion of which was celebrated with all the usual demon strations of joy. We have no intelligence fiom t/ ird Wellington this day, but we anticipate, even from the articles in the Moniteur, tbat the next dispatches will be good. They seem to he preparing the people of France for the abandonment of the expedition against Portugal. Everv line of them shews the fury and the disappointment of Bonaparte, He proves that the people of Portugal have found out the means of brffiing him. He knows thst the failure of the attack upon Portugal will render his affairs in Spain mo e desperate, and he feel- and fears tbat the lessons which these two countries have taught may not be lost, upon the rest of Europe. How ridiculous and contemptible must his lamentations over the deseited state of Portugal, anil his expressions of astonishment at the flight of the peasants, appear in the eyes even ofthe French. The peasants would not stop and supply the French army ; they would not. remain to be robbed, and to afford an enemy the means of conquering their country.— No— they had the example and the recollection of the Spanish peasants before them, whom the French butchered in the cruetest manner, hanging them up by hundreds upon trees, after having destroyed their cottages and property, because they had dared to take up arms in defence of their country. The peasants of Portugal fled, destroying with their own hands their property, and laving waste their country rather than it should afford the means of subsistence to so ferocious an in- vader. A nil tin- reward of tlieii patriotism and their fortitude will probably be, that the invader will be fo ced to fly also. Prisoners of War.— A letter which the British Government has ordered the Commissioners of the Transport Board to send in reply to all the demands of French officers heie to be released, proves that, although the negociation is broken off, our Government, will siitl soften, as much us possible, the m'sery of individuals, and exchange on the principle of man for man, and rank for rank such of the French prisoners as may obtain the consent of their own Government for their release. Letters from the Caraccas of the 1st of October, and from Veia Cruz of the 9th, contain an official document of the Supreme Junta, of much commercial interest, in whicn an arrangement is recognized with Colonel Robertson, under which a free correspondence is to be admitted with the Bii'i- h Colonies, and the same privileges and tariff is to be ' allowed to the Somh Americans in the Antilles which ttie ' English possess. By the same treaty, the merchandize of South America, not the production of the country, may b- imported into tbe Antilles, if the same be not pioltibited when imjiprted in Britisli vessels. Some Gazettes were received this morning from Buenos Ayres, noticing tbe degradation of several of the Spanish authorities who had been allowed provisionally to letaiu thei; situations. l etters from St. Bartholomew stale, that owing to some arbitrary acts of Government, a revolution hail taken place there; that the judge of the island, Bergstedr, his wife, prin' ipa! secretary, servants, &, c. had heen sent off, and have arrived at Saietn. An embargo has heen imposed norm all shipping. This island is principally inhabited by Irish and French, and will probably be taken possession of by the British. An American ship, bound from the United States to Bour- desux, iu the confidence of the repeal of the decrees of Berlin and Milan, lias been sent into Plymouth by a British frigate, undei the sanction of the ordeis iu council. A gentleman, who li ft Paris only a few days ago, states that 50,000 men weie on their way to reinforce the armies of Bonaparte in the Peninsula. Contrary to expectation, a new levy of 150,000 soldiers had been ordered immediately to be executed throughout the French Empire. A petition was presented, a few days ago, by the Con- tractors for the loan, ami tlie holders of omnium, to Ihe Directors of the Bank of England, to postpone ttie time for ihe redemption of omnium — The Bank has agreed to this request; and an answer has been sent to the Stock Exchange 1 to that effect, fixing the payment of the instalments for the following days, viz. February 1, 30 per cent.; February 15, 30 per ceiit.; and March 8, 40 per cent — The day pre- viously appointed fur the redemption was the 27th of January. Perjury.— In the Court ol King's Bench, on Friday, Jolin King, esq. was tried and found guilty of willul and corrupt porjurv. The plaintiff was Mr. Cliarle? Harrison, an attoi ney, and the alleged perjury was stated to have been contained in an affidavit made before the Loid " Chancellor by Mr. King, for the purpose of piocuring an attachment against Mr. Ha- riton for a contempt of the couit, committed by him in having issued a writ ol executiou against Mr. King, after he hurl been served with a notice hy tbe defendant, that Ihe Lout Chancellor hud granted an injunction staying all pro- ceedings. The Mexican Colfee honse, in I, isle- strect, Leicester- square, kept by Mr. Simonet, lale cook to the Prince of Wales, was entirely consumed by fire this morning, and we lament to say, the landlord und landlady both perished in the flames. Three female servants saved their lives by jumping out at a two pair of stairs win * • • - • * ' - » - - - I- N VI.. of age, Glover 14, the the girl 15.— Ensign TtvmasWhite, a drummer, whose trial had been put off two sessions, were sentenced to death, for an unnatural crime. The Society for the Encouragement of Arts, Manufactures and Commerce, met on Wednesday ; when a ballot was com- menced for tho election of a Vice- President, in" the room of the late Earl of Dartmouth. The candidates were, the Earls of Liverpool and Morton ; the former of whom was elected bv a majority of eight.— An invention is before the Society, which is likely to afford great comfort to the Water Gilders. The process in carrying on this branch of business is most pernicious to the health uf those concerned in it, owing to the. noxions effluvia from metallic? and other substances, which comprise tbe preparation used for gilding. The machine in question is so contrived, that persons in tbat line of business may pursue their avocations without the least injury to their health. An eagle was shot 8 few davs ago, on Tredake, in T. anlegtos, near Fowey, whilst feeding on the carcass of a sheep. It was three feet long, from the extiemities of its hit! and tail. The expansion of its wings was six feet ten inches. When this mighty aerial adventurer descended on the sheep's carcase, the magpies and crows feeding thereon, in haste, with shrill chatter, and dreadful cries, forsook their prev, and sought shelter in the nearest trees and thickets. On Wednesday night, between 11 and 12 o'clock, Mr. Charles Marten was caller! out of bed by an alarm that his premises, consisting of spacious warehou. es. See. situated in Well- street, Fast Smitbfietd, were ou fire ; on searching, he discovered a burning link ( which appeared to have been thrown from fhe street), on tfie roof of a snap- manufactory, opposite his dwelling- house, and withm au inch of some com- bustible composition, which, had it set on fire, would have immediately communicated the destructive clement to every part of the premises. The extraordinary circninstance of finding llie link in that situation prompted Mr. M. to en- deavour at finding the wicked perpetrator of this action; and, passing two gir'sof the town, be heaid one of tlieni sav, she knew who did it. He immediately seized Iter, and com- mitted her to the care ofthe watchman; and on examination, - he said, that the link was thrown bv one of the firemen belonging to a certain Insurance Company, and that she knew the man, and could point him out.' The whole of the fire- men belonging t, o that Office are summoned to appear at the Police Office, and it is hoped that the wicked and diabolical incendiary may meet with merited punishment. It is sin- gular, that within an hour from tbe time this aff., ir happened, the vrry serious and alarming fire in Prescott stieet broke out ; and that the night before, a fire hart consumed a laige house, within a very little distance from Well- street.

A Gentleman has arrived in this country, frorr> the Dutch coast— He states some interesting facts whieh ar?.. passing on the other side.— The invasion of England i* again the topic, and a fleet is assembling in the Scheldt for that, purpose •— Every exertion is making to man them with experienced sea- men, and a number of Danish sailors have been unpiessed for that purpose. The French party in Holland are greatly out of humour at the tardiness of Massena's operations in'. Portugal ; and also at the protracted warfare in Spain.— The report of a war between France and Russia is very current on the Continent. The merchant* have relinquished al! idea of attempting to trade with Ivugland eithet by direct or indirect means.— At Mum burgh, tne merchants have satisfied all the demands of the French Government as to the 40 per cent., on colonial produce; but this has not set their poods at liberty, for the Emperor will not give permission for this description of mer- chandize to be transported from Hamburgh. The greatest exertions are making to send off the f.^ et of transpoits now taking in stores for the Army of Portugal, amongst which are clothing of every description, bed clothing, hammocks, camp equipage, cartridge hoses, and various ther articles for the use of the army } as sonn as these are gone others will take their places, to take in cargoes of the same kind. This proves, at least, that Government have no idea of the British army being compelled to leave Portugal this winter, notwithstanding the reinforcements that Massena may receive.

Caution.— In the course of last week, several respectable tradesmen in this citv have been waited upon bv an elderlv gentleman, of respectable address, with a prospectus for the publication of a work on Chemistry, and soliciting sub- scriptions — The price of the work he stated to be three Gti neas, one guinea to be paid in advance, and to be de- livered in about six weeks. We understand he succeeded in several instances in obtaining the whole of the subscription money. Having invited one or two of his credulous sub- scribers to the Feathers Inn, to drink a glass of wine with him, a traveller in the same room identified him, as a person who had visited York about two years ago on a similar errand, and hid obtained a considerable sum of money upon the same pretences, promising then, as now, that his work should be delivered in weeks I We sincerely recommend to the study of Dr. Shannon ( the name he assumes) the s'mple process of common honest. v, and to the public the compound virtues of caution and prudence.— Chester Couram.— This person alluded to in the above caution, was last week in this town, on the •- a- Tie business; but was fortunately known soon after his arrival, and admonished to pass on. There was a plentiful supply of fat and lpan cattle, & c. at Worcester fair on Monday se'onight, which experienced ? declension in prices, and many were driven away unsold Sheep were rather scarce, aud prices unaltered. The shew of horses was large, but being principally of an inferior de- scription, the sale was not very brisk. Karlv on Tuesday morning last the outbuildings belonging to Huntington Hall, near Chester, were discovered on fire, and in a short time were entirely destroyed. The fire en. seines were of infinite service in arresting the progress of the flames from the adjacent premises.

Bints for British Ministers TO CONTINUE THE BLOCKADE. Mp. EDITOR, My Letter which you inserted in your last paper, signed ' A BRITON, was written and sent to yon in very great haste; so much that I doubt whether it was read over after composition, but am certain it was not twice writ- ten. This will be excuse for some trifling oversights in the language : however'it is good enough to please the generality of even intelligent readers, and as to fastididus critics let them snarl, and be—— atigrv or censorious, if they please. The mallei is what I am most anxious about; and, on perusal of mv own thoughts so rapidly sketched, that when I recollect tbe shortness of the time and see the quantity of space oc- cupied therewith in your paper, t could almost doubt whether I wrote the Whole; yet, " feeling each sentiment so perfectly coincident with my thoughts, 1 credit that all came Irom the same pen. When, sir, I examine it deliberately, I perceive that it does contain highly valuable matter, matter of great public importance with respect to political regulation at this juncture: and 1 hope you had the good sense to do what 1 ought to have requested, I ' mefin, sir, send a copy of your Journal for the breakfast- table decoration of a certain gen- tleman in Downing- street. If heVeiai- RIIE SYSTEM OF BLOCK- adc to gratify American merchants, I hope the British mer- chants, who have true British spirit, will, to a man," vote for his ejectment from that fiowning- street House. Sir, lam convinced that the system of Bloikade is'that which will rtiin our enemy. If he, in bis'ruffiarr- like phrenzy, - should issue his totai interdict against British commerce, let us coolly, but with firmness not Zeis than his own, issue an interdict against all commence with other countries, except What shall come by medium of British merchants. This will drive him to absolute phrenzy— He now borders on it; and thus " the paths of glory" or military prowess Would lead to a marl house before the grave. 1 have long predicted what might be done, and what I thought would be done ; and nothing is now wanted but courage, au3 intellect in our rulers, to confirm that prediction. The crisis Seems near, when the Beast shall be penned up in a large den. , ( SocRAtES was said to have an attendant genius. I will not so far pretend to be a man of genius, as to have a little gentleman of aerial body alxtays in wailing; but 1 do frankly declare that on inspecting the letter uow in print, I imagine there was some aid superior'to my natural faculties*.— My genius is not now in wailing ; for if 1 had a million of pounds offered as a premium I could not write such a letter as that, at this time. It contains matter worthy of consideration from statesmen, and Englishmen in general. Even its short statement, on the Regency are an epitome of that course of patriotic conduct whic h ought, to be adopted " both by the Senate and the Prince. Sincerely, sir, do I hope that the Regent and Regent- makers will go hand- in- hand, be prompt and decisive in their con- duct; and not suffer England to be bullied by American merchants into a revocation of the Blockade decrees. If the American Minister think proper to demand his passports, let him have them within 24 hours ; and in the mean time let him reflect on the character of the British people; that they are courageous in war; honourable in comttieicial transactions; and spiiited in fhe adjustment of political differences: that they must not be insulted ; but that I heir generosity is equal to their courage, and therefore let the Americans understand that whatever prcperty we detain, coming toEuiope shall not be lost fiom the American owners, unless ihey choose to declare war, or to proceed in a way of hostility equivalent to declaration ; but that most decidedly they shall have a British interdict against their European commeice so long as the '" Rex, Imperator, et Tyrannus" of France shall piesume to interdict the commerce of Britain. This, in my judgement, should be the " sine qua non, whereby any vessel trom America, or eleswhere, should enter any ipoit in Europe. - In this instance I will not forget to ask you, thus publicly, to forward a copy of these sentiments to Mr. Peicival. Whether he remain Minister or not is comparatively of small importance to me. If the measures be good, 1 care not who are the men from w hom they proceed. I hope to see this eventful period ably conducted. This is the unfeigned wish of, Sir, your's respectfully, Nov. 29th, 1810.

Kironr FOR NOVEMBER.— The mild weather, through the greatest part of last month has been extremely favouiahle to the young wheats, of which there is a very large breadth sown. The young plants are very strong, and have thrown out a thick flag, that will shelter and protect the roots from the frost through the winter.— Oats are of prime quality, and may be expected to fall in price as soon as the frost makes a demand for the straw. The weather being mild and open at the beginning of the month, made it favourable to eat off the row en and lattermaths, by • which means the cattle have been kept out of the farm- yard. Effects of Fear on animals.— The following curious circumstance may be depended upon as a fact; it pre- gents an interesting feature in the character of the bull, not before noticed: A young gentleman was upon n visit at the house of a far- mer, who had a bull JO wild and ferocious, that he was kept constantly chained, except when Ird to water, See. at which time he was never suffered to be out of the hands of a trusty person. This an mal seemed to have conceived a pat titular antipathy towards tbe gentleman, who, being young and dar- ing, had probably at some time irritated him. He never saw him approach the shed in which he was kept without begii . ning to bellow most dreadfully, which he continuid while the object of his dislike was in view, at the same time tearing up the earth wilh his horns, and giving eveiy symptom of the utmost aversion. On two occasions, while leading to water, he very cunningly watched an opportunity, and endeavoured to make a sudden spring out of the hands of his attendant at the gentleman who was standing in the yard. Some of your readers in this part of England, may probably recollect that in the night of Ihe 10th of August, last year, there was a most tremendous storm of thunder and lightning. This took place during my friend's sojourn in tne country; and though he has often been in tropical storms, he declares that for about ten minutes he never witnessed any thing more awful. The lightning resembled sheets of fire, and each flash was instantly succeeded by a thunder- clap as loud as if a volley of 10,0110 cannon hud been discharged. But what most affected him were the piteous roarings of the poor bull, which, exposed in its open shed to all tbe fury of the elements, set forth every instant a yell of terror beyond description hideous. Imagining that it was the lightning which chiefly alarmed the animal, the gentleman proposed to the men servants to go aud remove it into the barn, but iu vain. They were one praying in one corner and another in another, as much terrified as the bull, w hose roarings made no impression on them. He then said, " well then, I will go myself; the poorcreature will be tame enough now." He accordingly put on his great coat and went into the yard. The moment he approached the bull, which was lying trembling on its back, aud had almost torn Its chain through the gristle of its nose ill iis efforts to get loose, it rose, and by its fawning actions expressed how de- lighed it was at the sight of any thii'g human amidst such a Scene of horror. Like Roderick Dhu's bull in tbe Lady ot the Lake, when it had been pricked on some scores of miles by the lances, of a troop of Highland foiagers, its ferocity was gone; and with Ihe utmost quietness it suffered my friend to untie it, and lead it into tbe barn. The next morning, in cros- sing the farm- yard, the gentleman remarked that the bull, who had rrgained his shed, no longer saluted him with bis accustomed bellow. It struck him lhat the animal might rt member his last night's kindner s. He accordingly ventured by degites to approach it, aud found that so far fioin showing any ill- will towards him, it with tbe utmost gentleness suf- fered him to scratch its head : and from that day it became to him as tame as a lamb, suffering him to play all kinds of tricks wi- h it, which no other person about the farm durst ventuie to attempt; and seeming even to take pleasure in being noticed by him. SPUING GUNS— On Thursday morning, about three o'clock, a watchmaker's shop in High- street, Glasgow, was bioken into by boring holes in a window- shutter with a centre bit. No sooner had one of the villains, of the name of Thomas Thomson, about 16 years ol age, entered, than lie was killed on the spot by aspring gun. There were found upon him a loaded pistol, a quantity of powder, two balls, a small viai of phos- phorus, and a gardener's knife, made like a saw. The inhabitants in the shop below, upou hearing the report f the gun, immediately gave au alarm, when several from a friend, informing him that his shop was to be broken into, and requesting him to he on his guai'd.— He, along with an acquaintance, watched several nights, when, worn out with fatigue, the above successful ex- pedient was adopted. Extraordinary Scene.— The greatest hoax that ever has been heard of in the metropolis, was a few days ago prac- tised in Berners- street, Oxford- street. The house of Mrs. Tottenhatn, a lady of fortune, at No. .14, was beset by about a dozen trades- people at onetime, with their various commodi- ties, and from the confusion altogether such crowds had col- lected as to fender the streets impassable. Waggons laden with coals from rhe Paddiugton wharfs, upholsterers' goods in cart loads, organs, piano- fortes, linen, jewellery, and every other description of furniture, " sufficient to have stocked the whole street, were lodged as tie'ar as possible to thedoor of 54, with anxious tradespeople atid a laughing mob. About this time the Lord Mayor of London arrived in his carriage, and two livery servant's, but his lordship's stay was short, and he was driven to Marlbnrough- stfeet Police office. At the office his lordship informed the sitting Magistrate lhat lie had received a note purporting to have coine from Mrs. Tottenham, which stated that she had been summoned to appear before him, but that she was confined to her room by sickness, and re- quested his lordship's favour to call on her. Berners- street at this time was in the greatest confusion, by the multiplicity of trades- people, who were returning with their goods, and spectators laughing at them. The officers belonging to Marl- borough- stteet office were immediately ordered out to keep order, but it'was impossible for a short time. The first scene tnessed by Ihe officers was six stout men bearing an organ, surrounded by coal- merchants tilth permits, barbers with band- boxes, opticians with their various articles of trade, and such was the pressure of trades- people who had been duped, that at four o'clock all was consternation and confusion. Every officer that could be Mustered was enlisted to disperse the people, and ihey were placed at the corners of Bei riers- stieet, to prevent trades- people from advancing towards the house with'goods. The street was not cleared at a late hour, servants of every denomination wanting places began to assemble at five o'clock. It turned Out that letters had been written to the different trades- people, which stated record mendations from persons of quality. A reward has been offered for the apprehension of the author of the criminal hods — The hoax exceeded by far that in Bedford- street, a lew months since ; for besides a coffin, which was brought to Mrs. Tottenham's house, made to measure, agreeable to letter, five feet six hy sixteen, there were accoucheurs, tooth- drawers, miniature- painters, artists bf every description, auctioneers, undertakers, grocers, mercers, post- chaises, mourning coachcs, poultry, rabbits, pigeons, & c. In feet the whole street was literally filled with the motley group. The following are a few of tbe notes sent in the name of Mrs. Tottenham, for the purpose of collecting this most ex- traoidinary group: " Mrs. Tottenham requests Mr. will call upou her at two to morrow, as she wishes to'consult him about the sale of an estate— 54, Bemers- stfeet, Monday." " Mrs. Tottenham requests that a post- chaise and four may be at her house at two to- morrow, to convey her lo the first stage towards Bath.— 54, Berners- street, Monday." " Mrs. Tottenham begs the hon. Mr. will be good enough to give her a'call at two to- morrow, as Mrs. T. is de- sirous of speaking with him ou business of importance.— 54, Berners- street, Monday, fee. & c." In the reign of Henry III. a Jew fell by accident into a pr ivy on the Saturday, which being his Sabbath, he would not suffer any one to take him out; and the Earl of Gloucester not only permitted him to remain in this filthy condition his own Sabbath, but would not suffer any one to take him out on the Sunday, by which cruel joke the jew was suffocated. A hog, only 13 months old, fed at Lord Cawdor's seat, in Wales, measures from the tip of the nose - to the extremity of the tail, f6 feet 7 inches, 8 feet ' iu girth, and near four feet in height, weighing iu the whole, 10171b. At the last Glasgow circuit a person of the name of Ogilvie was tried for the murder ot his wife, found guilty, and ordered for execution. Doubts having occurred with respect to the evidence, the case was submitted to his Majesty, who was pleased to grant a respite for a time, which expired ou the 28th of November. It appears from the Scots papers of the 23d, that a further respite for 14 days had arrived, which must have been given since his Majesty's illness. Who can say, then, that the Royal functions arfc sus- pended } The question is, who exercises them I The coachman and groom at Belmont, near Hereford, were both suffocated lately, in consequence of the room over which they slept having been aired with coke, which was left at night in a burning state, and the noxious effluvia from which produced the melan- choly result already Sated. Thus two young men in the bloom of life, excellent servants, greatly regarded by the family where they lived, and all who knew them, have fallen victims to an act of inadvertent imprudence. The carbonic gas has been supposed to he so much heavier than common air, as not to ascend to any great height; it might consequently have been imagined, that this deadly vapour would not have penetrated by ascending from a lower room into one over it, between which the communication seemed to be cutoff by aclose ceiling, and a door well fitted at the top of a staircase. The present fatal instance proves, that no person should think himself safe in sleeping in any situation at all near the poisonous influence of such effluvia, which is the more dangerous from being attended with little or no smell. A Newfoundland dog was on Thursday brought to the hammer, in the neighbourhood of Wapping, among other effects of a naval officer, and knocked down for 18 guineas' A competition was excited among the bidders, by the Auctioneer stating that tho animal had, at different times, saved three persons from being drowned. A lady advertised for a husband about a month ago in some of the public prints, and had several applications to marry. One gentleman had an interview with her iriends, w ho describ- ed her as beautiful, of an excellent temper, but was unfor- tunately tongue- t ed from her birth. Tbe bargain was in- sfat^ l'y struck, as what they considered a misfortune, the gen- tleman conceived to be one of the greatest perfections in a wife! Pointer.— In the Court of Common Pleas, on Satur- day, an action was brought to recover £ 22. 10s. paid to the defendant for two pointers, warranted staunch, & c. The plaintiff is a gentleman of fortune, residing at Teddington, and the defendant a dealer in dogs. On the dogs being tried, they flushed several covies of partridges, and were altogether useless. The plaintiff agreed to take a setter dog of the defendant's, which ttie latter also warranted, for £ 12, and if disapproved of, the three dogs were to be returned, and the money re- funded. The setter was described by a gamekeeper as a Newfoundland dog in action. A justification was set up lhat the dogs were not returned in time.— Verdict for the plaintiff. Assault.— At the Middlesex Sessions on Tuesday, Isaac Kinipton, a butcher, in St. John- street- road, was tried for assaulting a Mr. Elliot, who was one of a Court LeetJury, lhat had gone to his shop to examine his weights. The defendant made use of the most abusive language. When the prosecutor took hold of the scale, he swore he would knock his b— y life out, and gave lum a blow, with intent of pushing him away. The scales being taken up, there was found a new halfpenny ingeniously fastened to the bottom of one of them, which made a very material alteration in the things weighed. They were then broken in pieces.— Mr. Alley argued for a verdict of acquittal, ou the ground lhat the Jury had no right to break the scales— The de- fendant was found guilty ; and the Chairman observed, that he had committed a most serious offence— that of obstructing and assaulting persons belonging to the most useful institution in the kingdom. He could not plead ignorance in extenuation ; because it appeared he had himself on a former occasion been ou one of these Juries. His sentence therefore was— One month's im- prisonment in the House of Correction. A volunteering from the militia will, it is said, take place in the course of the spring, and the battalions of several regiments are to be increased. The Scots Rojals, Inniskillings, 42d, and the Bifle Corps are to have each four battalions; the 7 th, 43d, 52d, and 71st, to have eaclx three battalions. with the grief for her death, her Royal Highness is now in a low nervous state The Board of Trade has refused to grant any further licences, for the introduction, by neutral ships, into British ports, of any articles from the Baltic, excepting gran. On Saturday the Lords of appeal in prize causes, affirmed the judgment of condemnation against four American vessels, captured hy his Majesty's ships, for carrying on an illegal traffic in slaves. The Swedish Government has acceded to the demand of Bonaparte to declare war aga'nst this country. The declaration of hostilities was to be read in the churches at Gottenburgh, and, no doubt, in every other part of the kingdom, on Sunday last. A letter from Got- tenburgh, of the 26th, contains the following infor- mation upou this subject: " With respect to the de- mantis lately made on the part of France, to our Court, we learn from good authority, that they were, 1. that a declaration of war should be immediately issued against Great Britain; and 2dly, that, all English property and colonial produce, however imported into Sweden, should be confiscated. An unconditional acceptance of these terms was insisted on, and an answer required, within five days; in default of which, the French Minister was to quit Stockholm. The answer said to have been given to the first proposition was, that a declaration of war should be issued, as required, against Great Britain. A limited time was required for the further consideration of the second proposition; but the Government, at the same time, assured the French Ambassador, that if, after the 24th of April, it should be found that any new merchandize had been illicitly imported from England, sentence shall be pronounced as respecting such importation, conformably to the laws of the country. It is said, that his Royal Highness, the Hereditary Prince, has expressed himself in the most positive manner against any concession to Frauce beyond this extent. We are not yet informed whether, as the answer given is not a positive acceptance of the terms proposed, the French Minister will, or will not, quit Stockholm." A Royal Mint is completed by Messrs. Walt and Bolton, at Soho, for a new coinage for money to the Prince Regent of Portugal, at the Brazils, to be shipped immediately. A seizure was lately made on board a foreign vessel at Gravesend, just as she was ou the point of sailing, of 6000 guiueas, and bars of gold to the amount of 4000/. — The quantity of gold lately seized on board a vessel, at Yarmouth, was 2870 ounces, in 22 bars. The seizure was made by Mr. Elias Loveday, the Title Surveyor there, who found the gold concealed between the timbers of the vessel, under about 80 tons of shingle ballast. A gentleman of the sister kingdom lately gave an extraordinary price at a sale for an alarum clock ; as- signing as a reason, that he loved to rise early, and should now have nothing to do hut to pull the string, and he could wake him » e! f. It has been stated, that every Englishman in arms, in Portugal, costs us at the rate of 15s. per day ; and every load of hay sent from England, aud landed in that country, £ 40. Tornado.— On Thursday se'nnight, Mr. Fuller, of Buckingham, in Sussex, received considerable injury from the effects of a tornado, or whirlwind, which completely unroofed his car'.- horse stable, and took away the greatest part of a large haystack, about two tons of which were carried full two roods across a field. The cloud, when first observed, exhibited the shape of a cylinder standing on one end, of a red colour ; and it was then a little to the westward of Shoreham, where it crossed the river ; and, the tide being at ebb, a con- siderable quantity of the mud was thrown over the banks to some distance across the adjoining land. It then took the direction of Buckingham, and wrought as before stated on Mr. F.' s property ; it next passed very near to Portslade, without meeting with any further obstruction, and went off iu a line for Saddlescomb, where it spent itself. The coach with the London mail arrived at Milford, Thursday last, without coachman or guard. It seems they got down at Haynton, about two miles distant, in order to light one of'the coach- lamps, which had been blown out ( it being a very stormy night), when the horses, which are reported to be the best on the road, took fright, set off at a very brisk rate, and could not be overtaken; and, although they came in at full gallop, reached the Nelson Hotel yard in safety : had they come in contact with the corner in getting into the yard, coach and horses must have been literally dashed to pieces. There was one gentleman passenger in the coach who leaped out on its approaching the church, without receiving the least injury. Prospective Sporting.— No less than twenty six sub- scriptions, of two hundred guineas each, have been made for a race to be run at the Craven Meeting of 1815 ; the horses for which race are not only not yet born, but not yet begotten I In Cowdroy's last Manchester Gazette appears not fewer than twenty- two jtrni advertised for running aw ay from their wives, and leaving their families destitute. What punishment can be too severe for such atrocious conduct ? ^ There was lately taken up out of a field belonging to Mr. Clingen, of Holywell, a turnip, of the white Norfolk kind, measuring three feet four inches in circumference, and weighing upwards of thirty- one pounds. Miraculous escape.— Extract of a Letter from Jaulnah, ( East Indies) dated May 19, 1810.—" I arrived here this morning with Colonel Conran's force. There is good hunting and shooting about 12 miles from this place, but it is dangerous from the number of wild beasts.— I had yesterday a most miraculous escape, which is the talk and wonder of all the camp.- I usually go out on the flanks, and yesterday was healing down a nullah parallel to our line aud about 300 yards distant; I had killed one hare, and was anxiously looking out for another. The place appeared by no means dangerous, because the hushes were low and insulated, but in one of these did my Beatee dis- cover one of the largest tigers I ever saw. The cir- cumstances were as follow : I was passing on at my usual slow pace, and taking care that every bush was well beaten. I arrived at a low and narrow, but rather long bush, and had passed to the further end, when Beatee cried out Saheh, Sak- b— Baugh ! liaugh ! I withdrew a few paces, put two balls into each barrel of my gun, over the shot; sent one man lo call assist- ance from tbe line, and was endeavouring to get a sight of the animal, as the man who remained was pointing out his head, his legs and his face, but my endeavours were vain— my eyes had led me into the greatest peril, for finding that I could not see him, I unwisely concluded that he was further off than my Beatee declared, and with my gun cocked I advanced crouching towards the bush ; as I expected to see him through the branches near the ground, which seldom have any foliage, but could not get a glimpse of him : when, lo I as I had just touched the outer sprays, the monster rose not a yard from me, and rushed out with a roar that withdrew all my strength. It appeared as if the bush was coming up by the roots ; he brushed me in passing, and sprang at my Beatee, when to my as- tonishment I wituessed more courage and presence of mind than I ever hope lo see again— as the tiger was springing, the man, undismayed, struck at him with his bamboo full in the face, and the tiger turned off; I had neither presence of mind nor strength to fire, and perhaps it is fortunate I did not. The tiger galloped off, turned about, and then galloped at some distance past us, and in sight of the whole line of baggage. Four men were killed by a tiger on the road, and 1 have no doubt but it was by this one. You will agree lhat I had a narrow escape, for it was wonderful that he did not spring on one of us on first beating the bush, and more wonderful that he did not paw me in passing, for he actually touched me— the only reason that can be given is, that he must have been gorged," Skiddaw. the mountain pride of Cumberland, and the a1 m ration of numerous visitors from all parts of the United Kingdom, was sold oo Wednesday, the 21st u! t. for the sum of 1,970/. The purchase comprises 1,732 acres. An asthmatic patient, who is rather deficient in ortho- graphy, wrote to his physician on Thursday, stating, " that his coffin had returned," and desiring to know what he should do ; to which the latter sent him an answer, recommending him to send it back to the undertaker. On Friday se'nnight, the Marquis of Downshire, in person, acknowledged and suffered recoveries, before the Justices of the Court of Common Pleas in Ireland, of his immense estates in six counties in that Kingdom ; by which proceeding he has acquired the fee simple and absolute dominion over his entire property. Thursday night near three score abandoned, or, per- haps in some instances, unfortunate females, found parading the streets of Bath were apprehended, and are to be confined, sent to their respective parishes, or admonished, as their different conduct may appear to require, for the preservation of the public morals. Eastern Jealousy. — A letter from Travancore, dated March 1, states the following tragical occurrence. A shock of an earthquake being experienced during the night, at one of the small forts, owing to which some houses were thrown down; nearly at the same moment a fire broke out, which so much alarmed the people, that numbers left the place, and sought safety in the open country. Among the fugitives were several fe- males, who, under the impulse of terror, had fled half naked from the Rajah's Zenana. The natives, pitying their condition, took them in, and the next morning conducted them back to the fort; when their jealous tyrant ordered eight of them to be immediately decapi. tated, for having exposed themselves to fhe observation of men; and sentenced five of their innocent con- ductors to have their eyes put out, for having had an opportunity of gazing upon their persons.

TO DR. SMITH. DEAR SIR— AS 1 am not used lo write much, I bumblv in-' form you, for the benefit of mankind, that my daughter Martha Jebb, at the age of 7 years, was shockingly afflicted with the King's Evil. In 1803, she was recommended by a lady as an out- patient to the Infirmary, iu which situation she remained until 1305, w- hhout receiving any benefit. I was then advised to try tbe Ploughman's Drops, which I did, and thank God I soon found, without the help ofthe surgeon's knife, or burning hot caustic, that my dear daughter in the short space of three months was perfectly cured, and remains at this time quite sound. I must obseive that the ulcers round her poor little neck were enough to shock Ihe heart of any one. I am, dear Mr. Smith, your's, WM. JEBB. Wrockwardine, Jan. 17, 1808. My daughter may be seen any dav, as a living witness of the good your blessed Ploughman's Drops are capable of doing. These Drops are to be had in sqnon?

DR. FREEMAN'S GUTTA SALUTARIS. SIR— I beg you will publish the following Cure, for the Benefit of those labouring under a similar Com- plaint. Last Autumn I contracted a Venereal Complaint, and applied to an eminent Surgeon, under whose Care I was three Months; during that Period I underwent Salivation three Times ; the Disorder was so violent that Wounds broke out all over my Head and Body; and I was recommended the Change of Air and Sea- bathing, but I continued in a worse State if possible; at last I was recommended, by a Gentleman, to use Dr. Freeman's Gutta Salutaris, by the use of it, thank God, I am perfectly cured, to the Astonishment of every Person who knew my Case. When I leave Brighton I will relate mure Particulars. Sir, your devoted humble Servant, WILLIAM JAMES. Brighton, May 6, 1807. Si R— Owing to making too free with the Fair Sex during my Stay in London, 1 contracted the Lues Venerea, so as to be incapable of paying Attention to Business ; I had the best Medical Advice, but to no Effect; 1 was reduced to tbe greatest Object possible; a Friend, who had contracted a Venereal Disorder, and had been cured by your Gutta Salu- taris, procured me a small Bottle ; its good Effects I expe- rienced in a few Days, and by the Use of six large Bottles I am perfectly cured. Injustice to the Medicine, 1 wish, for the Benefit of those that labour under a similar Disorder, that you will publish this Case. My Family Connections are such that I trust you will only annex the Initials of my Name. Your humble Servant, J. H— N, Manchester, Feb. 6, 1801.
