mis' PRINTED AND PUBLISHED, FOR THE PROPKIlTTORS, BY G. F. HARRIS. VOI.. X. No. 522. SATURDAY, SEPTEMBER 28, 1811. P. ICE SSX- pl M . i WEDNESDAY'S POST. LONDON. TUESDAY, SEPT. 24. FROM SATURDAYS LONDON GAZETTE. ADMIRAJ, TV- OFFICE, SEPT. 21. [ Transmitted hi Admiral Sir C. Cotton, !! M. S. iiu. xanr. ah, at Sea, dated 7th September.] SOME of Use enemy's coasting- vessels having taken shelter under a battery of three 12 pounders on Hie south- west side of the Penmarks, I yesterday morning sent toy first Lieutenant ( Win. Hauiley,) with the boats of this ship, to spike the guns, and trim: them cuter destroy them; which service he performed, without the loss of a man, in a manner that does great credit to himself as well as* all the offi- cers and men employed upon the occasion. GEORGE C. YD. OGAN. On Saturday the city was thrown into considerable limitation, iu " consequent e of the receipt at Lloyd's CoflW- house of the, news from Plymouth of the Presi- dent United States frigates, 44 guns, Commodore Ro- ;{-.- isi, the redoubtable and magnanimous assailant of tbe Little Belt, having been captured. The circumstances » re thus statetl :— While the Melampus was cruising off the Chesapeake and bearing English colours, three shotted guns were fired at her by the President. In consequence of this unprovoked attack, the Melam- pns, with the usual promptitude of British intrepidi- ty, closed with the President, and giving her a broad- side trebly shotted, killed and wounded 60 other men, which induced the American to strike her co- lours with no little precipitation. Every means were taken to ascertain the truth of this report. In the first place, application was made to the Admiral- ty < 1- 0111 Lloyd's, and an answer was retivned that no official or corroborative account had reached Govern- ment 011 the subject, antl tiiat the same was totally discredited at that office. Next, the most recent let- ters and papers received from America were referred to, in. order to learn from them where tlie frigates said to be engaged were stationed by the last ac- counts ; aud from these sufficient information has been ob'ained to prove that no rencontre of the kind had tekt- n place, and that the whole story had originated it falsehood, on what occasion remains still to be ex- plained. The President frigate ( according to the last Kew York papers) arrived at New York on the 6th rit. from a cruise, in company with another govtrn- Jiient- vesstl; and on the same day ( 6th August) the Melampus was at Halifax, receiving on board Sir George Prevost's baggage, & c. raid was to sail about the 15th with Sir George and his staff for Quebec. This morning two Afiholt mails arrived, by which we have received a variety of German and other papers, to a late date. It appears by accounts from the frontiers of Turkey, that tbe Ottomans have com m'enced offensive operations against the Russians, and bave made some successful incursions into Wallachia. The French Crown Prince of Sweden is entirely recovered from his indisposition. The system of the Continent, according to some of the most recent of these letters, has been entirely changed; neither the laws nor the customs of the people remain the same. Formerly an indulgence was allowed to the merchants of Hamburgh with respect to their Bills of Exchange; if they could pay Within eleven days after the bills came due, it was sufficient, by a regulation of the Senate, to pre- vent any action at law for the recovery of the debt. ' Ibis indulgence the French have discontinued. The principal places in Hamburgh have been converted into prisons, and are even insufficient to contain the numbers placed in confinement. Such is the present state of the Continent, Captains of ships, and other seafaring men, who had retired from the perils of the sea with a small competency, have been indiscriminately dragged from their families and homes, to man the fleet at Antwerp. Those who are refractory, are immured in the new created prisons. Letters are still prevented from being forwarded to Gottenburgh ; and those allowed to be sent to Copen- hagen are first opened at Hamburgh, ami again on their arrival at the Danish capital, for the purpose of preventing information reaching England, unless it be of sncli a nature as best suits the views of the French Government. A letter has been received from Rtigensbtirgh, stating that the people of Pomerania have risen en masse, to the number of between 40 or 50,000, to resist the oppression of Bonaparte. This account receives some support from the letters which ar- rived from Gottenburg on Thursday, a few ot which directly, aud several indirectly, advert to commotions iu that province. In addition to which, a letter from an officer on board one of the ships of the British licet in Wingoe Sound, dated Sept. 7, contains the following paiagrapli:—" Intelligence has reached us of commotions that have happened in Pomerania, anil from the character of the accounts that have lately been received from thence of the miserable situation of the inhabitants, it is not thought improbable." In relation to the preceding accounts, we think it hy no means unlikely, that in conseqnence of the losses which many of the seafaring people on the coast of tiie Baltic have sustained from the French donaniers, partial risings may have been excited ; but there is little doubt tiiat they have been greatly exaggerated. We are authorised, from private inlormation, to assure the public, that the large bands of robbers no- ticed in the French antl German papers, to stop the communication between Frankfort and the French territories, are formed into considerable bodies of de- termined men, mostly warriors, who, like the Spaiii- h guerillas, do more mischief in destroying and harass- ing the French troops than regular armies. They possess a large tract of ground in the Black Forest, and have seized convoy's of artillery and ammunition crossing the Rhine, in their march from Poland to France. Oil the 4th of July, the Captain of Ihe Sabrina Sloop of war took possession, in his Majesty's name, of the island lately thrown up by a volcano, near St. Michael's, in the Azores. He named it Sabrina island, and lef* an Union Jack flying upon it. The island bus gradually increased by the ejection of vol- canic mailer, until it has acquired an< extent ot be- tween two and three miles in circumference. Merchants and others', who have transactions with the North of Europe, are recommended to examine Carefully the bills apif indorsements of bills drawn upon them, air several forgeries and alterations of names have been discovered, owing to letters having been purloined/ The London and Middle'- vx Sessions commenced last week, but the trials hitherto have been of little interest. Three of - the swindling tribe were brought up - mi' Saturday at Clcrkenwtll. Tuck alias Tucker,' the slum jwrs « ' » , put off his tint till the next Sessions- Andrew's and Httll, notorious siviildlers, were found guilty, mid sentenced to bc'. traiispdrl'ed toi 7 years. Tic Duke of Sussex is nearly recovered from his indisposition; but, lo guard against a relapse, it is said, that his Royal Highness has been advised to try a change of climate. The thermometer stood four degrees higher on the 11th ins. t. than is general with the heat in the West Indies, and eight degrees more than the usual scale at Bombay. BOXERS.— The obstacles which brought it to even betting, that, the approaching battle between Crib aud Molineux would not take place, have been re moved by a toss, for the seat of combat, as demand- ed by the Black's friends. The toss was won by the partizans of Crib, and Lincolnshire was immediately declared the connty for combat, as the most favour- able spot which should be obtained, without the ha- zard of being molested. The pugilists are both on the road to the spot, Crib having left Easingwold yesterday, at which time Molineux left the neigh- bourhood of Uxbiidge. The odds are two to one on Crib.. Jemmy the Mariner and Crab are expected to ex- hibit on the same stage. Giocester Second Royal East Local Militia.

LONDON, wmwwiuv, SEPT. 25. DEFEAT OF THE BOULOGNE FLOTILLA. TUESDAY'ft LONDON GAZETTE. ADMIKAr. TY OFFICE, SFPT. 21. [ Transmitted by Rear Admiral Fulet/ i] " " VESTERD \ Y morning, while thisship was lying I at an anchor oft' this o ace, much hustle w as ob- . serveila • o'- g th- etieniv's flotilla, moored along shore, u dor the tiatierirs of their hav ; which appeared to i idicate thai some affair of nmisual moment was in agi- tation. At about noon, Bonaparte, in a barge, ac- 00 npan ed by several other officers, was tl stinctly m- cn I > ifl nceed along their line to the centre ship, w hu-' i immediately hoisted the Imperial standard at tne main, and lowered it at ! is departure, substitnf- 1 a if foi it n n ni- admir. il's flag; he afterwards visited others, and tiien cunti , ned in iiis boat for the rest of the. evening.— Sir. ee. it is so much within the well- known custom of that personage to adopt measures t at confer supposed eclat on liis presence, T conclud- ed that snmetliiiiL' of that kind was about to take place. Accordingly, seven praams, each having twelve 24- ponmler* long guns, with 120 men, and commanded by Rear- Adimral Haste, weighed ai d stood towards tin* ship,' being expressly ordered by the French ruler, as I have since, learned, to attack us A" the wind was S. AV. Willi a verv strong flood- tide setting to the N> E. while the enemy bore neaily south from us, it was clear that bv weighing we could only increase our distance from him; so that our only chance of closing villi him at all was t> y remaining at an anchor. The Naiad, theref re, quietly awaited his attack in that position with spri > ES on her cables. " It was exclusively in the enemy's own power to ciioose tie distance; each ship ofthe squadron stood within gim- slint, save us successively her broadsides, tacked from us, and m that mode continually repeated the attack. After this had so continued for three quarters of an hour, ten brigs ( s lid to have four long 24 pounders) aud one sloop ( said to have two such guns) als weighed and joined the ships in occitsii nallj ca ieinadmg us, which was thus kept tip for upwards of two hours without intermission, aud returned, 1 humbly hope, with sufficient effect bv this ship. " At slack water the Naiad weighed her anchor and stood < tl', partly to repair some tr vial damages, bnt chiefly bv getting to windward, to be better enabled to close with the enemy, and get within shore of some, at least ofis flotilla. After standing off a short time, the Naiad tacked and made all nail t wards them; but at about snn set it became calm, when the enemy took lip liis anchorage under the batteries eastward of Boti- . logne, whilst Ihe Naiad resumed her s iu her former position. " lu this affair not a British subject was hurt, and the damages sustained bv this uliip are too trifling for me to mention or report. I have indeed to apojogize for dwelling so long on this affair; but my motive is the manner ill which I understand it lias been magnifi- ed hy the enemy, and the extraordinary commen- dations whirl) have been lavished on the Frenchmen engaged in it by their ruler. It is fitting, therefore, that his Majesty's government should know tbe real state of the case ; and tiie Lords Commissioners of the A'tmiraltv may rest assured, that every officer and man on board tbe Naiad did Ztalouslv and steadily fulfil his duty. I have, fise. P. CARTARET " His second letter is also dated off Boulogne, Sept. 21, and is as follows: " Tins niornng, at seven o'clock, that part ofthe enemy's flotilla which was anchored to the eastwaid of Boulogne, consisting of 7 praams and 15 smaller vessels, chiefly brigs, weighed and stood out on the larboard tack, the wind being S. AV. apparently to re- new tiie same kind of distant cannonade which took place yesterday. Different, however, from yesterday, there was now a weather tide. The Naiad therefore weighed, and getting well tothe windward, joined bis Ma. esti's brigs Rnaldo, Redpole, and Castilian, with Ihe Viper cutter, who had all zealously turned to windward in the course of the night, to support the Naiad in the expected conflict AVe all lay to on the larboard tack, gradually drawing off shore, ill the liope of imperceptibly inducing the enemy also to withdraw farther from tlie protection of his formidable battel ies. " To make known the senior officer's intentions, no other signals were deemed necessary, lint " to prepare to attack the enemy's van," then standing out, leatl by Rear- Admiral Baste; aud" not to fire until quite close to the enemy." Accordingly, the moment the French Admiral taei- ed in sht re, having reached his utmost distance, an I was giving us Ins broadsides, the King's small squadron bore up together with the utmost rapidity, and stood towards tiie enemy under all the sail each could conveniently carry, receiving a shower of shot and shells from the flotil a and batteries, without re- turning any, until within pistol shot, when the firing on b ' tli sides i f Ins Majesty's cruisers, threw the enemy into inextricable confusion. The French Admiral s praam was the principal object of attack hy this ship: but as that officer in leading had of course tacked first, and thereby acquired fresh way, and was now under much sail, pushing with great celerity for the batte- ries, it became impossible to reach liiin without too greatly hazarding his Majesty's shin. Having however succeeded in separating a praam from him, which had handsomely attempted to succour his chief, and which I bad intended to consign to the particular care of Capts. Anderson and M'Donald, of the Rinaldo aud Redpole, while the Castihan attacked others, it now appeared best preferably to employ this ship in effec- tually securing her. '• The Naiad accordingly ran her on board; Mr. Grant, the master, lashed her alongside; the small arms men soon cleared her deck ; and the boarders, sword in hand, completed her subjugation. Never- theless, iu justice to our brave enemy, it must be ob- served, that his icsistance was most obstinate and gal- lant, ner did it cease until fairly overpowered by the overwhelming force we so promptly applied. She is named La Ville de Lyons, was commanded by a Mons. Barhaud, who was severely wounded; aud had on beard a Moiis. La Conp£, who as a Commodore of a division was entitled to a broad pendant. Like the other praams, she has 12 long guns 24- pounden ( French), but she had only 112 men, fit) of whom were soldiers of the 72d regiment. Between 30 and 40 have been killed and wounded. " Meanwhile the three brigs completed the defeat of tbe enemy's flotilla ; but I lament to say, that the im- mediate proximity of tiie formidable batteries where- unto we iiad now so nearly approached, prevented the capture or destruction of more of their ships or ves- sels. But no blame can attach to any one on this ac- count; for all the commanders, officers, anil crews, ditl bravely and skilfully perform their duty. If I may be permitted to mention those who served more imme- diately under my own eye, I must eagerly and fully testify to the merits ot, and zealous support I received from, Mr. Greenlaw, the first lieutenant of this ship, as well as from all the excellent officers, brave sea men, and royal marines, whom I have the pride and pleasure of commanding.— Our loss, I rejoice to find, is comparatively trivial; aod Lieut. C. Cobb, of the Castilian, is the only officer who has fallen." Killed — 2 seamen of tiie Naiad 1st Lient. ( Cobb) of tiie Citsfiliaii.— Wounded— I Lieut. 1 Midshipman, of the Naiad. — 14 seamen in the whole. [ This Gazette aiao contains letters from Captain Napier, giving an account of the capture of el yen gun- boats, au armed felucca, 15 merchant vessels, and 36 spars for building, on tiie 2tst July last, in the Mediterranean, by the Thames frigate and Cephalus sloop.— Likewise a letter from the Hon. Capt. Wilde- grave, of the Voloutaire, ofthe destruction of 10 large armed feluccas, on their way from Pizzo to Naples.— Also a letter from Capt. Mulcaster, of H. M. sloop Emulous, of the capture of a French letter of marque, pierced tor Itiguns, off the coast of North America.] To the Gaaette account of captures we have to make the following addition: " PLYMOUTH, Sept. • 3.— Came in four French cbasse- maiers, taken by his Majesty's ship Sceptre ; a French brig taken by his M resry'sshi. i Abercrombie; a French sloop taken byhis Majesty's ship Poinpee ; a French galliot aud a French sloop taken by his Majesty'' s ship Scmiramis." We received this morning New York papers to the 21st of last month. Tliey contradict officially the ac- count of much intemperance of language having been nsed by Mr. Foster to the American Secretary, Mr. Mimroe. So far, they atltl, from this being the case, the negociationswere carried on very amicably. They are, however, suspended till the British Minister re- ceives an answer to the dispatches he lias transmitted to his Court. Mr. Foster has taken a country bouse near New- York, and Mr. Mutiroe has retired to his country seat. Great apprehensions are entertained of an Indian war. There is in these papers a report of an insurrection ill Jamaica; we notice it merely to state that it is totally unfounded. Halifax papers to the 1st inst. set at rc- t the ques- tion relative to the Melampus and President: the former sailed ou the 25th ult. for Quebec, with Gen. Prevost. Government have received accounts from Lisbon of the 9th inst. which say, that the French, after plundering Villa Franca, retired towards Astorga : their head- quarter* were in front of that town. Ge- neral Abadia had moved forwards to Molina Secco. Marshal Marmout's army continues to defile towards Old Castile : it is said this army will be replaced by several corps from the army in the centre : they will proceed by the Talavera load to Placentia. It is re- ported that Marshal Soult will shortly return with a great part of his army to the Guadiaua. Paris papers to the 10th instant present us with official details of tbe defeat of the Spaniards under Generals Friere aud Blake. It is stated that after Blake left Cadiz with the army under his command, " lie landed at Almeira, anil joined the army of Mur- cia which was entrenched at Venta del Paul. This increased- the number of Spaniards to 21,000 ; 2500 of whom were cavalry." After some skirmishing, both armies came in sight of each other. The - Spaniards were drawn up at Rio Barbata, in three lilies. The attack was matte by the French. " Two divisions of the enemy" ( says Soult,) " were forced to retreat, and were completely routed. The field of battle remain- ed covered with the dead, and with arms thrown away— each troop saved itself as it could in all di- rections." This engagement took place on the 9th. Oil the 10th, the Patriots were pursued, and the French having come up with 2000 of their cavalry, who covered the retreat of the rest of the troops, thev were overthrown, and completely routed. Soult states, that " several thousands of the Spaniards have been killed ; a great number wounded are wandering in the mountains, where the greatrr part will perish : 7 or 8000 men have disbanded themselves, and crowd back to their homes. It is thought that of this army which, since the arrival of Blake's division, was iu condition to make a fine defence, not 7000 men will enter Murcia; all the rest is dispersed." The French estimate tlieir own loss so low as 30 killed and 150 wounded. Letters reached us yesterday, from Bnenos Ay res, to the 7th of July : they contain intelligence of an unexpected nature. It appears, that the Vice- Roy Elio has fitted out a naval expedition, for the purpose of attacking the town of Buenos Ay re*. The Junta were informed of this alarming eiicumstance by an officer of the name of Rondati. upon which procla- mations were issued, ordering all Europeans from the place, without delay. We received this movniiig Bombay papers to the 7th April. They state that the capture of the Mau- ritius has produced great advantage to trade and na vigation. We are sorry to learn that the Tartar frigate litis unfortunately been lost in'the Baltic. She struck on a rock on the 13th ult. aad remained in that perilous state till the 23.1, when it was found impracticable to save her. It is with pleasure we add, that not one of the officers or crew were lost. They have, vye un- derstand, been distributed among onr ships on that station. Tbe half- yearly meeting of the Proprietors ot Bank Stock was held on Thursday, when the usual dividend of 5 per cent, was declared. Mr. Clifford, the bar- rister, was present, and urged the depreciation of bank- paper, the rise ofthe nominal value ofthe dollar token, the general profits accruing from the manage- ment of the national debt, Ste. as reasons for in- creasing the dividend to 7\ per cent.; but the motion was not seconded. In answer to some questions put by the Duke of Norfolk, it was stated by the Gover- nor, that it was intended to continue the coining of small change, till the wants of the country were full} supplied. A half- mad enthusiastic field- preacher, in the neigh- bourhood of Paddington, entered a number of dis- senting chapels last week, and with noisy exclama- tions announced the destruction of the world by fire; the comet, he maintains to be the forerunner of it, aud an indication of heaven's wrath. A new singer of great promise, named Sinclair, appeared the first time on Friday evening, at Coveut Garden, as Carlos, in the Duenna— he was received w ith very great applause. Mrs. Sidelons retires from the stage at the end of this season- Lueien Bonaparte's poem is now in the press. He- llas sold it to Miller; and ambitions to have it trans- lated into English, he has, through the bookseller, made an overture to Mr. Campbell, the Author of " The Pleasures of Hope," to undertake it, for a re- muneration of 20001. A well has lately been discovered in the keep of Dover Castle, by Sir. Mantell of that place ; it is si- tuated in the thickness of the N. E. wall, near the top of the building, and exhibits a fine specimen of the masonry of our ancestors, being steaned to the bot- tom with the greatest regularity and compactness; it is about five feet in diameter, and is upwards ol 400 feet deep. This, according to tradition, is the iden- tical well that Harold promised to deliver with tbe Castle of Dover, into the hands of William tbe Con- queror, the breach of which promise cost the former his life and kingdom. Its . existence in the above- in ntioiied tower had been long known, but it had been so carefully arched over, that its precise situa- tion hud till lately eluded the most diligent investiga- tion. A fire broke out last week in the malt- house of Mr. Neville, at Chalk- End, Essex, which was not extin- guished until the whole was consumed, together with a farm- house, buildings, ice. adjoining, belonging to Mr. Cliff. The damage is estimated at upwards of 20001. FARMING SOCIETY OP IRELAND.— The sale of fine wool was heltl at the Society's stores on the 23d, 24th, and 25th ulf. The number of fleeces produced this year, including 550 fleeces that have arrived since the sale, exceeded that of the last year by 1305 fleeces. The introduction of the Merino breed into Ireland setms to have met the most sanguine wishes ofthe manufacture i s, and promises amply to repay the ex- pense and pains of those into whose hands the sheep have fallen.— The parcel which sold highest, w as shorn froina portion ofthe flock imported into Cork last sum- mer, and was considered equal in fineness to any that Spain could produce.— It is but a just tribute to the spirited exertions of that able and intelligent breeder, Dr. Parry, and to his liberal and polite attention in having presented the Society with a ram from his own flock, to state that a pared of wool, which brought the extraordinary price of 9s. and Ski. per lb. unscoured, was shorn from sheep of one ye ar old, got by that ram upon the South- Down ewes of Mr. Grierson, who sold a considerable number of the produce, when lambs, to Lord Lisutore. POISON ING HORSES.— Auothcr person, of the name of Cecil Bishop, who stated himself to have been brought up as ail apothecary, has been examined at Marlboroiigh- street Office, on the charge of having poisoned Perriwhit, the Dandy, aud other horses at Newmarket.

His Majesty has passed the night without sleep, and is not quite so well this morning.— Sept. 24. His Ma- jesty had some sleep during the night, and is much the same as he was the day before yesterday.— Sept. 25. His Majesty continues in the same state as yesterday. — Sept. 26. There is no change in his Majesty to- day. Yesterday Sir Henry Halford wa ted upon the Prince Regent to report the state of the Kiug to his Royal Highness. A letter from an officer of high rank in the army of Lord Wellington, dated at head- quarters, the 4th inst. states, that the whole army was then concen- trated in the neighbourhood of Cindad Roilrigo, and that the meditated grand operation could not be many days delayed, from the difficulty that must naturally be experienced iu providing the necessary forage for the immense number of tine cavalry which had just arrived to co- operate in the projected enter'prize. The precise nature of the operations about to be un- dertaken, the writer docs not pretend to be acquaint- ed with, as I. ord Wellington never discloses his plans even to those officers most in his confidence ; but lie expresses a persuasion, from tin formidable disposition . Out had been made of our forces, that a general en- gagement would very shortly take place. From all that we have been able to learn upon the subject, we are inclined to think that the opinion of this officer is perfectly correct. We believe Lord Wellington is determined to give immediate battle to Marniont, and from the admirable plan he has formed for that pur- pose, there is every reasonable ground of hope that the result will piove alike glorious to the allied arms, and substantially beneficial to the common cause.- The army arc most abundantly supplied with clothes and provisions, and generally speaking, were never in bet- ter health and spirits.— The number of sick is greatly reduced. Marniont had received considerable rein- forcements. It is thought that he will make an at- tempt to relieve Cindad Roilrigo. General Hill has crossed the Tagus, and proceeded northward with his . division. Our force iu cavalry is far superior to that of the French army. The letters from the North still speak of war be- tween Russia and France. Some of them mention a Tumour of ( lie King of Prussia having thrown himself into Colbcrg, w ith 40,000 men, to take his last stand against France Bonaparte is expected in the north of Germany. After visiting Holland, he will proceed to Hamburgh, and from thence repair to Dantzic. We shall consider his setting off'for the north as the immediate forerunner of hostilities. There is said to be an embargo in the French ports; and it is suspected to Have been laid as a preliminary step to the sailing of the Scheldt fleet. It amounts to S1 sail of the line. The general belief is, that it wiil attempt to go north- about; though sonic persons think it will attempt to pass down the British Channel. We care not much which way it steers, persuaded that, if it does come out, its final destination will be a Britisii port, under Ike custody of a British fleet. Tiie last advices from Hamburgh arc to flu 8th inst. nt w hich time the letters state, that domiciliary vi- its to the merchants daily took place, in search of corre- spondence with England, and arrests as frequently happened. The following is an extract of a letter from Palermo, dated July 26, 1811, received by a respectable mer- cantile IIOUM' In Sheffield:— Yon will perliap* be sur- prised to hear that a Greek vessel, witii a British licence, and which was brought into this port the 15th • f May, by three Sicilian privateers, after the owner ( Mr. R. Campbell) and the crew had been turned adrift at sea and left to the mercy of the waves, has been condemned, and thus British licences declared useless and null. During the night of the 19th and 20th inst. five of the first Barons in the land, viz. Princes Behnonte, Villauosa, Villa Franca, Augio, and Jaci, who have been considered firmly attached to the British interest, and highly respected by the people, were seized iu their beds and carried oil board a Sicilian corvette, which sailed with them im- mediately for the desert island of Pantelleria. A dispatch has been laid before the King for his signa- ture, giving to the Cav. Castrani, the liberty of order- ing away any foreigners who have not been ten years established in the country, whom he should think unfit subjects. The King required forty- eight hours to reflect thereon, and during this interval Lord Wm. Bentinck fortunately arrived. He is to be presented at Com t to- morrow ; we hope that his instructions are stong and positive. It is with the greatest pleasure I inform you of the spirit and ability dis- played by our Secretary of Legation, Mr. Douglas ; we meet in a few days to propose a vote of thanks, which I trust will be worthy his acknowledgments." According to the news brought by the Anholt mail, Bonaparte is expected at Rotterdam. " Off Boulogne, there was," say the French papers, " an exchange of shot between one of cur praams, " and some of the enemy's corvettes, on the 8th inst." It is also added, that " sixty or eighty of their flotilla, " several with 24- pounders, mautxuivre continually " before the port." How does it enhance the merit of the achievement, of which our Gazette of Tues- day speaks, that it was from the midst of these sixty or eighty sail, with their 24- ponnders, that we brought away one praam, and really took another! Captain Philip Carteret, of his Majesty's ship Naiad, who has put Bonaparte to the blush, in the presence of his Empres , at Boulogne, was promoted from the rank of Commander from the Cambrian, com- manded by the lion. Capt. Legge, for his uncommon zeal on several important occasions. He is only acting iu the command of the Naiad, Captain H. Hill still holding the permanent command of that ship. There ran be no doubt, however, but the Lords of the Admiralty will reward his present active aud gal- lant repulse of the invincible flotilla. The last time Bonaparte w as at Boulogne, Maria Louisa incurred his displeasuie, by innocently ask- ing, " Why lie did not send out his numerous flotilla to take a single English frigate that was in sight?" If she saw the engagement on Friday and Saturday last, she must now be able Io guess with tolerable accu- racy the reason why her husband's ships are not more frequently sent out to take English ones. A dreadful gale of wind took place on Tuesday night, which has produced considerable damage on our coast, from Deal to Brighton. Several ships are on shore and some gone to pieces. Some lives, we regret to add, have been lost. Mr. Joues Burdett has published a long letter, de- clining to become a candidate for Southwark. ROBBERY' OF THE TREASURY.— The locks of the desks, and others iu the Treasury, have lately been broken open, and the property secured by them stolen. The depredation was committed on Tuesday night, without the least suspicion attaching to any particular person. Yesterday morning Sayers, the Bow- street officer, was sent for. He accordingly attended, and examined the locks and premises that had been opened, but it could not be ascertained whe- ihcr it was done by any person who has access to the premises, or by common robbers, who expected to find the national treasure, from the name the building bears. The principal property stolen consists Of books and stationary. < © loccstet\ SA7VRDAV, SEPT. 28. CHEI. 1 F. NHAM ARRIVALS. Duke of G'ocester, Viscountess Strangford, Lord Campden, Hon. Miss C.

Lately was married, the Rev. T. Davis, Dissenting Minister, of Coventry, to Miss New, only daughter of Mr. A. New, woolstapler, of Evesham. On Wednesday last died, in this citv, Mr. Charles Elmes, aged 53, who, though he had quitted business to indulge his natural inclination for privacy and retire- ment, felt that it was amongst his duties not to be an inactive member of society. He therefore undertook the unprofitable and troublesome office of treasurer of the incorporated Workhouse of the city, the duties of which he discharged wilh equal integrity and utility, and with a punctuality and an exactness almost pe- culiar to himself. To an exemplary, moral, and religi- ous character, lie milted a deportment iu social and private lite, which, whilst mild and unassuming in manners, received a weight from the manly and firm temper of his mind. Warmly attached to his King and Country, and possessing mental attainments be- yond those of the ordinary classes of society, it will not be thought an ostentatious regard to his memory to add, that his political sentiments were sound, liberal, ami enlightened. On the 7th inst. died, in the 68th year of his age, sincerely regretted, the Rev. Hugh Hughes, formerly minister of Cheltenham church, the duties of which he fulfilled with the most scrupulous attention, in- tegrity, and honour, for a long course of yeais. till be succeeded to the living of Holyhead, where, after a short residence, he experienced a feeling common to all, namely, that after a certain period of life, the mind languishes after those connexions that the friend- ships of earlier days had cemented.— He therefore again removed to Cheltenham, and taking a small curacy in the ncighboiiihood, determined no more to leave that spot, where his happiest hours had been passed. On 19th inst. died, Mrs. Eliz. Long, widow of Mr. Natli. Long, of Kingswood, near WottoTi- iinder- Edge. On Sunday last died, at his lodgings in Cheltenham, General Lyman, the Consul from the United States. On Tuesday last died, after a lingering illness, Mr. Jonathan Martin, maltster, of Eastgate- street, in this city. The Bishop of this Diocese returned to his residence at Winchester College, on Monday last. We hear that the Chancellor of this Diocese in- tends to hold his Visitation as under, viz.

We understand the number of the nobility and gentry who have already signified their intention of attending the approaching Grand Musical Festival at Birmingham, is unexampled ; and w hen the object of it is considered, being tbat of furnishing the funds of that useful institution tor the poor, the General Hospital, the means to lei eve the sick, and lake in the numerous accidents that daily occur in such a populous manu- facturing town and neighbourhood, together with the infinite pains taken by the Committee, to provide a musical treat oil a scale so extensive that, has only been exceeded by the great meetings in Westminster Abbey, we are persuaded every benevolent lover of music" will honour it w ith their patronage. Ill addition to the splendid talents engaged, it is With pleasure we announce that Sianor Tr.' iiiezzani, the most distin- guished male singer of the Italian Opera, being on a visit in the neighbourhood, has kindly consented toaid the charity by Ins extraordinary vocal powers. We anticipate with pleasure the striking and extraordinary effect of a band of more than two hundred carefully selected performers, witli sncli vocal strength as Madame Catalani, Mrs. Bianchi, Miss Melville, Miss J. Fletcher, Messrs. Braham, Knyvett, Vanglian, Bellamy, Lacy, 11awes, and others, in selections of the choicest compositions of the ancient and modern masters, and are persuaded the second, third, and fourth of October will be found among the most brilliant periods of musical record. In order to afford the numerous assemblage of company the utmost grati- fication, we learn that on Saturday morning the 5th of October, Ml'. Sadler will add the sublime spectacle of an ascent of his baboon, which surpasses in size and construction all that have gone before it. Tlie register of lodgings to let at Aris's Gazette Office affords assurance of convenient accommodation at moderate prices to the company whoattend, however numerous. We congratulate the lovers of natural history on the arrival of that truly interesting animal the Alpaca from the Peruvian mountains, now exhibiting in Barton- fair. No animal ever vet imported into this country lias afforded such universal satisfaction ; its mild gentle manners are unequalled in any other quadruped; its features are emblems of the soft and genial climate of South America, and its general construction bespeaks the provident hand of nature in its most favored pro- ductions.— Sec advertisement in this page. Tiie thunder storm, of Friday last, appears to have been of wide extent; but we arc happy to say the damage sustained has not been so great as w e were led to apprehend ; many of the windows in file palace of the Bishop of Worcester vrere destroyed : at Thinge- ldll, a few miles from Hereford, H hail storm fell which covered the earth two inclips dee]), and some of the stones were almost as large as pigeons' eggs, which remained, notwithstanding tlie heat of the weather, nearly tw o hours on the ground ; at Hampton, a cow was killed by the lightning, a house at King- stone was also struck by it, bnt fortunately no one was injured : in the neighbourhood of Ross the light- ning was truly terrific, and created general alarm; two sheep, belonging to a flock on the road, near that place, w ere struck dead, and an oak tree in an adjoining wood was much shivered. It was felt with equal violence at Stourpoi t, and many other places. A quantity of salmon, out of season, was seized in Worcester market- place on Monday, and publicly burnt, through the activity of Mr. Richard Moseley, l one of the committee. The association at Bewdley J 1MS caused a number of illegal nets to be publicly | burnt there, which were, by the kindness of the i committee, purchased from the fishermen ; evincing, I that whilst determined to protect the fishery, they I were anxious not to use severity against those poor men. On Saturday Rd. Cross was committed to our county goal, by the Hon. John Dutton, for one year, unless he sooner pays the sum of 301. forfeited for having in his possession part of a fallow-^ eer, unlaw- fully obtained, against the statute. Atiout 10 o'clock on the morning of the 18th inst. Thomas Jones, a deserter from the Oxfordshire militia, endeavoured to pass the turnpike- gate at Kingstone- Bugprize, mounted on a horse without a saddle or bridle, supposed to have been stolen ; the keeper attempted to obstruct his progress, when Jones drew a pistol aud shot him. An alarm was immediately given, and the villain pursued toTabney Wood, where he eluded the vigilance of his pursuers. During the whole of Thursday several persons were ill pursuit of him, without success. We understand the man was not dead on Saturday evening, though he was not expected to recover. There is little doubt but this is the person who shot the keeper at Chelten- ham gate the same morning. It appears he is a most desperate villain, and a terror to the neighbourhood where he resided.— Meek, the gate keeper of Chelten- ham, still lingers without hopes of recovery. BARRED MUSIC AT TIIE CATHEDRAL. The high treat lately promised to the public by the suggestion of Madame Catalani, on her visit to the County Prison, and so generously promoted by the other performers, who instantly stood forward to give their assistance in the same design, was on Thursday exhibited in our Cathedral: aud we have the pleasure to say, that as far as tile execution of the several pieces is considered, nothing could exceed the excel- lence therein displayed.— The weather had for some days been unfavourable to the influx of persons whom curiosity and benevolence, upon such an occasion, was likely to have brought together: but fortunately the day itself was fine; and though very many proba- bly had been discouraged from setting forward for Glocester by the rain of Wednesday, yet little fewer thau 950 tickets were received. Of those w ho severally took part in the above Con- cert of Sacred Music, it would be invidious to make much distinction, where the performances of all were so highly admirable, and the generosity of the motive so strictly commendable. Madame Catalani, as usu- al, was most rapturously heard in the admired air " I know that my Redeemer livetli;" anil, in all her per formances, added, if possible, to her former fame.- Mr. Braham sung, with increased effect, that pathe- tic recitative from Jeplithah, " Deeper and deeper still:" his opening of the Messiah, " Comfort ye," was thought to exceed even his late delivery of that beautiful air on the former occasion ; and prov- ed the wonderful compass and extent of his pow- ers of voice, and knowledge of the science.— Mrs. Ashe proved the exquisite sweetness of her voice antl taste; and gave " Farewell ye limpid streams," with the highest degree of excellence, as well as her other various specimens of skill and judg- ment.— Miss Melville established her fame by her beautiful delivery of Ihe several airs allotted to her ; and gave an assurance of her becoming a most admired and pleasing favourite with all persons of true skill and musical discernment.— Mr. Vauglian is so well known for a chaste and elegant delivery of what is ever selected for him, that our commendation here is lit- tle necessary to tiie degree of merit always ascribed to him.— Mr. Hawes sang his parts very pleasingly, and with much pure and unaffected simplicity, such as iu sacred compositions is always most highly de- sirable.— Master Barrett gave a promise of much future praise. Mr. Cramer, as usual, led the band with every de- gree of excellence, skill, and judgment which his established name always implies iu nis profession : and Mr. Mutlow added to his reputation by the taste aud execution which he displayed in some beautiful compositions upon the organ, particularly Handel's Eleventh Concerto ; w hile Mr. Ashe, Sir. Marshal, Messrs. Petrides, aud nil the other able assistants in the vocal and instrumental parts of the performance, exhibited their various powers to the great satisfaction of their numerous hearers. Upon the whole, the highest delight and approbation were expressed by every individual w ho attended the meeting ; aud wc have the pleasure to say that the receipt for the charitable purposes designed seems to have amounted tu about 2501. towards w hich presents were made by some who could not conveniently attend, particularly by Lord ami Lady Rtdesdale, the Bishop of Gloccster, Lord Somers, Mr. Masters, Mrs. Stanford, and Mr. Brahaui, who, in addition to ten guineas towards the former meeting, presented five guineas on this occasion. The Stewards were very obliging and attentive to all who stood iu need af their assistance ; and the ex- pences of the whole are to be borne by them. The principal performers had a handsome entertainment provided at the Deanery; and for the rest a like re- ception was ordered at one of the Inns. The following singular instance of two crops of pease produced from the same land, in less than six mouths, may be depended on as a fact.— About the 24th of March last, Mr. Ryder, of Awre, planted three acres with early Chaiitons; they were ripe and housed about the latter end of July, and the piece was immediately ploughed and sown with turnip The pease shed on the land iu removing the first crop, came np with the turnips, areuow ripe, and yield a fair produce INQUESTS.— The following inquests have been taken this week by D. Willey. Esq. Coroner— On Monday, 011 the body of Mr. Joseph Holford, a respectable farmer of llartpiirv, who, on Saturday evening last, as he was returning from Glocester market, fell from his horse, anil was Unfortunately dragged in the stirrup nearly a mile ; he languished till Sunday morning, when death put a period to his sufferings. Verdict, accidental.— On Wednesday', on the body of Le Abbe Ca; sar, of Cheltenham, a respectable emigrant French clergyman, and Chaplain to the late unfortunate Louis XVI. who was found a corpse in li s bed. Verdict, died by the visitation of God.— On Thursday, at our Infirmary, on the body of Thos. They, coachman, who, whilst driving the Hibemia coach from Chelten- ham to Shrewsbury on the 16t. ll hist, one of fhe fore wheels coming off, the horses dragged the coach over him, and injured INTII so severely tliat he expired on Tuesday last. Verdict, accidental death.— And on the same day, a id at the same place, oii the body of Thomas Saunders, who. oil Sunday last, fell from a pear tree, in the parish of Pristbury, which caused so violent a concussion on the brain, as to occasion his death Verdict, accidental. An inquest was taken on Thursday, at Hampton Parva, 011 the body of Mr. William Keyte, a respect- able farmer, of Ebriugton, in this couuty, who drown- ed himself in the river Avon there. His uncle last saw him near the Saxon Tower, on Broadway Hill, and he was then on horseback, but was not heard ol afterwards, until discovered in the river: thefhorse he rode lias not been found. It appeared that the deceased labotued under a bodily complaint which the faculty pronounced incurable, and would sooner 01 later terminate his existence. The dread of leaving his family, ( a wife and 12 children) 111 distressed cir- cumstances, very strongly affected his mind; the jury therefore returned a verdict of lunacy. TEWKIIUTRY RACES. On Tuesday, the sweepstakes of I Ogs. each, was won by Mr. Clifton's b. c.
