JAMES MADISON. Washington, Nov. 13, ISM. MR. FOSTER TO MR. MONROE. Washington, November ], 1 si Sir^— In pursuance of the o. rdefs wfiich I have received from his Royal Highness the Prince Regent, in the name and 011 the. behalf of his Majesty, for; the purpose of pro- ceeding to a final adjustment of tne differences which have arisen between Great Britain and the' United States in the affair of the Chesapeake frigate, I have the honour to ac- quaint yon— First, that I am instructed to repeat to the American Government the prompt - disavowal made h. y his Majesty ( and recited in Mr. Erskilie's Note of April 17, ] So(), to Mr Smith,) on being apprised of the unauthorised net of the officer in command of his naval forces on the coast of America, whose recal from au highly important anil honourable command immediate ly ensued, as a mark of his Majesty's disapprobation. ' Secondly, that I am authorized to, offer, iu addition to that disavowal, ou the part of his Royal Highness, the im- mediate restoration, as far as circumstances will admit, of the men, who, in consequence of Admiral Berkeley's or- ders, were forcibly taken out of the Chesapeake io the vessel fiom which t hey were taken ; 01;, if that ship should no longer be in commission, to such sea port of the United States as the American Government may name for the purpose. Thirdly, that I am also authorized to offer to the Ameri- can Government a suitable pecuniary provision for the sufferers in consequence of the attack upon the Chesapeake, including the families of those seamen who unfortunately fell iu the action, and of the wounded survivors. These honourable propositions, I can assure you, Sir, are made w ith the sincere desire that they may prove satisfactory to the United States, and I trust tliey will meet with theamic able reception which their conciliatory nature entitles thein to. 1 need scarcely add how cordially 1 join with you 111 the wish that they might prove introductory toa removal of ail the, differences depending betweeu our two countries. AUG. J. FOSTER. To the Hon. James Monroe, ^ c. MR. MONROE TO MR. FOSTFR. Washington, November 12, 1811. Sir,— I have had the honour to receive your letter of the 1st of iVovemlvcr, and to lay it before the President. It is much to be regretted that the'reparation due for such an aggression as that committed on the United States frigate the Chesapeake, should have been so long delayed ; nor could the translation of the off ending officer from one com- mand to another, be regarded as constituting a part of a reparation otherwise satisfactory ; considering however the existing cudistances of the case, and the early and ami- cable attention paid to it by his Royal Highness the Prince Regent, the President accedes to the proposition contained in your letters, and in « * o doing yoor Government will, 1 am persuaded, see a proof of the conciliatory disposition by w hich the President has been actuated. rT" ^ _______ The officer com manding'the Chesapeake, now lying in the ha. hour of Bos- ivill be instructed to receive the men who are to be re- ton, will I stored to that ship. I have the honour, & c. JAMES MONROE Augustas .7. Foster, Esq. Sec By the New York and Halifax Mail, arrived to- day, we have received a file of New York General Advertisers, to the 27th nit. containing volumes of correspondence laid before Congress, on the subject of differences between Great Britain and A merica. The correspondence commences iu the paper of the Qtb, between Mr. Foster and Mr. Monroe taking under their consideration the most important ques- tion of ail others, " The Orders hi Council." Mr. Foster insists, that the Berlin and M ilan Decrees had not been effectually repealed, aud that the Regent could not therefore forego the just measures uf retaliation, which his Majestv, in his dcfence, had found it necessary to have recourse to. Mr. Monroe, in a reply to IVjr. Foster, considers that his < 3t » verhme » t was bouiid to respect the solemvi declaration of ti e French Government, Aug. 7. 1810, that f^ e Decrees were repealed ; argues that they are repealed, froHj the re- lease of the New Orleans Packet, the Grace, Ann, and other vessels.

Two e- ireumstauces. connected with the correspondence of Mr. Foster have attracted particular attention— his ac- knowledgment lhat he is provided with full powers, on cer- tain conditions, io annnounce to the American- Government the revocation of the orders in council— aud the assurance to that government tfyat, if they should be abrogated, no blockades wOnVd be ' attempted under the direction of the British Cabinet which should not be maintained by a com- petent nav£ tl force : in other ' words, that the jaw of block- ade would be restored toils former intelligible principles, and would be aefcompanied with that exterior demonstration which could leave 110 doubt of its local existence where us privileges should be claimed. A letter from an Officer of Artillery, dated Fuente Gui- naldo, Dec. ist.—" The French have failed in relieving Cuidad Rodrigo, since which they have, atttempted nothing. Marmont has returned t6 his head- quarters, but can do no good : it is said that a large supply of provisions is coming from Toledo. A11 advanced party of our light horse have taken 50 prisoners last night." Lord Cochrane has succeeded far better in his professional service than his political speculations, having acquired full ±' 100,000 in prizes during the short time be was afloat.

Theship Tigris, Captain Macdougal, is arrived in Mfir- gate Roads, after Imving in a gale of wind been drifeii on shore off Calais. The 1 racker gun brig fortunately joined her, and assisted in getting her off, otherwise she must have been captured, as six privateers . came out of Calais to at- tack her. Extract of a lettjer from au Officer on board the Tigris, Margate Roads, Dec. 19.— Onr perils since leaving this, 011 the 1 lib instant, have surpassed St. Paul's. Three times we have been nearly 011 shore on the French coast, and in wilh Calais ; only four miles off, out bundled six lugger privateers, each having from sixty to seventy men ; the Cr& clcer- gun- brig joined us, just as they came within long range of shot, when the rascals up he lm and run, other- wise we should'have 1 ad tight work of it. We were prepared ; and if confidence is half the battle, we certainly had that on our side. We got a pilot from the brig, and got in here last night, all hands knocked up from excessive fatigue, four days and nights in a constant furious gale. I'm hoarse with hauling, sore with hauling, tired with standing, and, I believe, likely to go to the d— 1 for swearing. Oureseapes from shipwreck have been miraculous ; and, as soon as time will allow, I will send you particulars— one can scarcely credits hat, in the space of three months, so many difficul- ties could have beeii encountered and surmounted."

Sheridan has relinquished bis Intention of offering himself again, for the borough of Stafford, and will therefore be returned for his present seat of llcheSter, at the next election. More Murders -^ Another horrid murder of a family was perpetrated on Thursday nighty in New Gravel Lane, ffcat- eliffc Highway, within less than half a mile ofthe scene of the late barbarous murder of Mr. Man's family. Between eleven and twelve o'clock the. neighbourhood was alarmed by ; i man, who stated that he was a lodger in the upper part of the King's Arms public house, New Gravel Lane, and that his name is Turner. He was in bed, and, alarmed by a great noise, he went down stairs, « here he saw two men— one in a large wateh coat and the ether in a flannel jacket, rifling tlie pocket of the mistress, who was then tying near the kitchen ti e. He immediately came to the resolution to get out of the window, and by the aid of the bed clothes he effected bis purpose, leaving up stairs, in bed, a little girl about twelve years ofage, the grand daughter of the, landlord. The cry of murder soon collected a great crowd, and two sto. ut men, of vhe names of Ludgate ami Iiawse, having ar- meci themselves,. went. to the house and broke open the door, when,- horrid to relate, they found the landlady, Mrs. Williamson, and the maid servant, quite dead. They were lying Hat on their backs near the kitchen fire, leading into the tap room, vfiih their throats cut from ear to ear. The wos: hds," which were very deep, had completely divided' the , windpipes. The seivant maid, an Irish woman, about 40 [ year:, of age, whose christian name was Biddy, had also a dreadful wound upon her iorehead, six or seven inches long and two inches deep, which completely fractured her skull, and a deep wound also upon her right arm. Continuing their search, they found Mr Williamson, ihelandlord, at liie bottom of the cellar stairs, with his head downwards and his feet on the last step, with his throat e: ut also in the same dreadful manner IT is right leg was brolten a little above the aiiele. A gold doubloon, or louis d'or, and some half- pence, were foumi on the stairs, which are supposed to have dropped out of his pockets when he was knocked. down. An iron crow was found iu ti e house. Mr and Mrs. William- s'ou were each about bo years of age.— As the house was shut up at eleven o'clock last nigh t, the murderers, it . is presumed concealed themselves in it. Mr. Williamson had kept it for many years, and was considered a man of property. Ihe back, Window Was found ope n ; the murderers escaped by it into a fiedd that leads towards the Docks.— This as well as the former, are supposed to be perpetrated by foreigners. Besides the above, two additional murders have been com mitted in the vicinity of London. The body of a gentleman, strangled with his owu handkerchief, was discovered this morning thrown over inio an area, near Pentouville. Also a watchman, giving alarm on the occasion of some thieves who were breaking into a house near Tavistock Square, was killed by a blow from one of the robbers. The perpetrators of these crimes haveelnded the vigilance of the police. Loudon is at this time more than usually infested with thieves and pickpockets. We are informed, that hackney coaches were last night stopped in llolborn, and the pas- sengers robbed, between tbe hours of elev. cn and one Remarkable Fraud.— O11 Thursday, a Jew merchant from Creed- lane, Leadenhall- street, was brought before the Lord Mayor by warrant, charged with stealing from a woman 15 guineas in gold This poor w: oman told his lordship, that she had saved up this gold, and hearing the defendant gave a premium for it in exchange for bank notes, she agreed . wit h him- to give her 21 pounds in notes for her 15 pounds 15 shillings in gold, ami look it to him ou Sunday for that purpose; that when she went in,^ lie asked her if she had brought the gold ? which, she said, she had, and counted it out to him, when he took and counted it, and told her he had agreed to give 21 pounds, and would be with her in a minute, and went out of the room. She supposing he had gone up stairs for the notes, waited some time, but was at last toid he uas gone out; aud she never Saw him since, till he was taken up hy his lordship's, warrant; lie gave no account what he had done with the poor w< rtian's gold, but had a Solcitor who attended for him who in forme d his lordship that it was no felony.— Mis lordship, however, differed with the Solicitor upon this point, and for the pre- sent committed the prisoner for stealing the woman's money, observing, that he should cousider of the means by which he nii& lYt be punished Arundel, December 19.— Yesterday morning early, a rob- beiy to a considerable amount was committed in the house of—— Franklin, silversmith and watchmaker, at Ports- mouth, of various ai tides iu his trade. Different persons were detached iu various directions, with an account of the robbery, and a dt scri\ ilion of the paity w ho had Com- mitted it, and who. had been the servant of Franklin only since Sunday Jjast. In the evening, a young man, about 18, arrived at t his place, about half- past live, in a returned post chaise from Chichesler, and was put down at the King's Anus, in Tarranl- stice t. where he supped and passed ti e night. Soon after his arrival, he desired the landlord to hire him a gig to go off' at six in the morning for Findou, forthe purpose of meeting there the Worthing coach, ih which he meant to proceed to Loudon. At the appointed hour he was called, and the gig came ; on which he asked t'ne lad who brought it, and w ho was top) with him in ord<- r to bring it back, to walk into the house and drink a glass. On going into the kitchen, where there was a" fire and c; andle, the post boy, while drinking his beer, eyed the mail with particular attention, and instantly after called aside the laudlor. d, anet told bun he was sure that was the man who had, that morning, committed the robbery at Portsmouth, fryip the particular description given that day at llavant, by persons w ho were in pursuit of him. He proposed to the landlord to stop him ; but, as be liael paid tor every thing, the man refused to interfere, and the gig set off immediately. rl he landlord, as sioon as they were gone, went to the Constable's, and informed him of what thepost- bov had told him ; and oh the circumstances being ' ofthe Crown lun here, to whom the his errahil, the young Tsraepie acknowledged that he " had robbed | rs master, aifd returned with them hit her very'readi iy.

I 1 o' On Moiiday, the Election of a Represeutatlre for j this Borough, in the room of the late Sir Tbomas j Jones, took place, when the Honourable HENRY GREY BENNETT whs elected without opposition.— Mr. Bennett was proposed by Cole> nel WING FIELD, and seconded by Mr. WICKSTEED.— We have obtained copies of the speeches, which are given below.— Colonel Wingtield spoke as follows: Mr. MAYOR— In consequence of the vacancy which has taken place inthe Representation of this Borough, by the death of Sir Thomas Jones, I propose ihe Honourable Henry Grey Bennett as your Representative. Mr, Wicksteed then followed : SIR— I beg leave to second the nomination which Ce> lonel Wingtield has made; and this I do with all my heart, tho' I would most willingly have resigned the honour lo some one better qualified to do justice to Mr. Bennett, and who hks greater weight and consideration with my worthy fellow- townsmen.— There is no occasion, Gentlemen, to occupy mil eh of . your, time in this business.— The inteuded oppo- sition having been withdrawn, it TS to he presumed, that the electors ndw assembled will - be Unanimous in their choicc. An argumentative address, therefore, would be out of place, — ana a V> ng speech would probably produce emly long 1 faces.— I have a demand upon your indulgence, however, I for a fevy wfyds.- fMr. Bennett appears to be a gentleman j . well calculated to manage our interests in Parliament, not | merely as an active representative, attending to the business j of the Borough, but also as an enlightened guardian of our j rights ss Englishmen We do not indeed expect him to j bounce no 011 ev& ry trifling occasion, to harass with Vex- ; :. , ; at ions opposition the Ministers of Government, whoever ! doubt for one moment ^ hat my Own ejipeVleuec has anr- for mi y coufirmed— the tority of Principle, the Popular Fidelity, the honest English- hearted Independence of the Burgesses? of Shrewsbury .— I have the honour once more, Gentlemen, i< r return yon my thanks. The liall was crowded to excess, and the general approbation of Mr. Bennett was evinced by strong and repeated plaudits.— The chairing will take place on Friday next. On Tuesday, the 17th. inst a very respectable meeting of the gentlemen of the County of Montgomery was belcl at the'Guildhall in Pool, when The Viscount Clive was* unanimously called to the chair, and an Association wa- forme'd for putting in, force the existing lav. sforthe preser V a Hon" of the River FiVn within the county, and a very hand-* some subscription was entered into for defraying the ex pen ditores of 1 be Association. The same morning a large quantity of Salmon out of sea- son yvas seized at Pool, and tiie offender w as convicted, atui paid the penalty of 20s. besides forfeiting his fish and pan- niers— We understand it was ow ing to the exertions of the?- Delegates from this town who attended the meeting, that ther fish was seized, and that the offender is one of the same men that was convicted here of a similar offence a short time since, and whose fish were burned iu t he Guildhall Square. Nothing could happen more apropos than this seizure at Pool, for it happened just as the gentlemen of the county- were assembling for the purpose of forming the Association^ and as soon as fhe meeting was over, several of them attend- ed and saw the fish ( some of which had roe in larger than peas \ burned Hefore the TownhaU— Let the unseasonable KoU k « -- neralry seized, wherever seen, and we shall s from hjs duty thro' timidity, or sell'interest, no copsi ation on earth should haVe induced me to take any concern in his cleetioii.

M. ibs. per quarter:— .. - ? s, and up ,11 tl, e first rib, Sir JOHN HIM,, our worthy Mayor and liettirning Officer, having declared Mr. Bennett duly elected ; Mr. Bennett spoke nearly as follows :— Mr. \ lAtoR, GESTLE » F. T « , I have to return you my most grateful thanks for the distinguished honour you have conferred upon me, in electing me one of your. Representatives in Parliament. I feel assured I shall no- t beti- av the trust reposed in me; a trust of all others tbe most sacred, as committing to my care not only your rights and liberties, but tbe rights and liberties, and, co- exi' pire — Allow ine to who have this day proposed attached as I am to one by tbe lies of relationship and inti- mate acquaintance, I owe him additional obligations for tbe countenance and protection which has uniformly been shewn me by his family— a family, Gentlemen, whose con- duct must have secured. them tbe respect am! esteem of all men— Admiring the honesty and siuctrilv oftbe address whieh tbe ol lie;' gentleman has this day made, and concur- ring iu the sentiments which be uttered, I feel proud at tlie praise be lots given me ; for what praise is more gratifying', than when it is given by the able, the honest, and enlighten- ed ! 1 am well aware of the difficulties attached to the situation « Melt I have the honour to fill; oft lie contending interests and the various political opinions to be attended to; but 1 should here, as upon nil ot her occasions, throw myself upon your favour, and if you found me free from private views, from unw orthy ambition, from nil attempts to sacrifice your interests for my own, or to barter the rights and liberties of my country for the lucre of private emolu- ment, 1 hope it is not too mnch to presume, that I should not find you harsh jnd rigid critics, or inclined to attribute to me any other motive for the political line 1 may think til to adopt, than an honest wish to serve my country in tl> e way 1 thought she could best be served.— I may failin the display of political abilities, but 1 will yield to no man hi good intention ; 1 will yield to no man in an honest endea- vour to uphold the frame of government bequeathed lo us by our ancestors, and which, hy the blessing of God, we will transmit to our posterity. I should be ashamed to waste your time in professions of attachment lo Ibe British Constitution: in this happy countiy, " and happy because she is free," no man is entitled to take credit for his attachment to those institutions which form the great security to his liberty. 1 wish to be judged, not by lav professions, hul hy my actions, by what 1 do, no less than by what 1 say. Neither. is it my intention to enter into tbe discussion of any of those political opinions whieh have agitated and divided the country for some years past; but there are principles which,, as they will be tbe ground work of my political conduct, I am desirous to direct your attention to. it appears to me im- possible for iiiry man to deny, that in the progress of an expensive war, expensive beyond all former example, a war that has lasted near twenty years, that lias wasted alone a thousand millions of our money, and sacrificed many hun- dred thousands of the lives of, our countrymen— reform, retrenchment, and ceconomy are 1 lie duties of government — reform of abuses, retrenchment ill expenditure, and CECO- uomy iu the administration of our resources. No man ought to reap the fiuits of public labour, w ho docs not earn them by public service ; and a check should be put to the career of those who are growing,' rich by the means that make Ihe nation poor.— No man can deny, that, in a period of civil disscution, the aim of a rational government should be to conciliate and to soothe, not to provoke and inflame. No man can deny, that our wealth is 1101 to be wasted, nor the lives of onr gullast soldiery sacrificed, nor British blood shed, in expeditions " where valour is useless and enter- prise impracticable where disease sweeps thousands from our ranks, and the least cruel foe is the sword of the enemy. No man can deny, that the basis of the English Constitu- tion is public freedom :— let it then be our boast, that where the power of Britain is know n, British liberty shall be known also.—- These are the means by which this Em- pire bas grown to ils giant strength ; these are the chains | that hind and knit us together " which, though liglitss I air, are as strong as links of iron — As then we support . tbat good old cause, meaning thereby a government under i the lair, created aud limited hy law, in opposition to a government of privilege and prerogative, which is arbitrary power, so long we need not fear the attacks of 0111- enemies, because we shall be Wnited at home. Is it not, then, ibis liberty that has done every thing for us here in' England ? Is it not tbe deep interest the people take in their political institutions, the sense they have of their own political power, that secures to the Constitution that liberal attachment, which is the foundation of domes- lie quiet, and the bulwark of national independence ? If then, Gentlemen, you find me a steady supporter of these great principles of our political fieedotn; it 1 be a uniform friend to the practice no less than to the theory of tbe British Constitution,. 1 shall be able to say lo yuu, at that period when Parliament sh- 11 be sent back to its constituents, that the trust you deposited in my hands is returned back inio yours unsullied and unimpaired ; thai your interests have not been neglected, liUl'. yonr rights and liberties invaded; aud that, as I have not encroached ou your independence, so. I have in no way forfeited my own. Permit limlo say afew woids u|. i> u the Cauvassthat has taken place in. this ton 11 for the General Election — I wish to blame 110 man, to . pass a censure upon 110man; hut when first I heard that suc'i- a canvass was, shoe I to lake place, it did occur to me that all the candidates for your favour might be compelled to take a similaratep—- fti.- iliei reflection decided me not to do so. 1 therefore have, not canvassed the to- vn for a future election, because il did not become me.; it did uot become me, when 1 waa solic iting your votes for the present election, when I met wilh tin earnest, zealous, I hud almost said', au universal sentiment of approbation aud offers of support, it surely would not have been fitting to have canvassed your votes for another election, to have solicited you fijr the future;— no, surely no Gentlemen, I know you well, and 1 feel confident that if I do mv d. ulv, and approve myself wprtby your trust,. 1 shall again be trusted ; aud Ihat if 1 am your fitilhftil servant, I need not dread the event of a contest..— Besides, 1 would have run any risk sooner than appear to trespass upon kindness, Which no service uf mine can adequately repay, or ; OakhamptOtt to Oswestry.

A criterion of his superior skill may in some degree be formed from I he vast numbers of t he fusb- and wonder. On Sunday the 1.7th a fire broke out at Stanbrook House* in tbe parish of Po'wick, nearWorcester, belonging to Dr. Brlggs. The house had been under repair and improve ment, and was nearly ready for the occupation of the family. The accident is attributed lo the neglect of work- men employed in the house, who had made tires iu it, anct had not taken sufficient care or paid proper attention to them On ihe first alarm, messengers'were dispatched to Worcester for the engines, am1 these arrived a9 early as could possibly beexpertcd, the distance from thenrc being about three miles. Part only of one wing was consumed, with part of t he furniture. The premises and furniture, we understand, were insured. Letters from Nottingham represent the disturbances, which, it had been hoped were gradually subsiding, to have burst forth wilh tncreasiug violence. The trade of Sotting ham is so nearly suspended, that it is not without difficulty the orders of the l. ondou Hosiers ean he executed. Govern- ment, as if is understood, have resolved to adopt decisive measures for the suppression of the rioters, whose views, it should seem, have now extended beyond frame bieakiug.; Prisoners arc hourly brought into Nottingham, hut numer- ous parties of weavers p. irade the country, in various direc- tions, eluding the utmost vigilance of the troops. These bodies arc supposed to act under Ihe orders of a Chief, nominally termed General Lull. It appears that the reason w hy the Stramonium, as re- commended by Mr FISHKR, has been so successful in the cure of Asthma and Consumption, is, that it has been pre* pared from the Datura Tatula, and uot from the Datura Stramonium, the latter of whieh, although well known to be of a very pernicious quality, is sold by unpi- inei pled and ignorant Druggists for the tine species. Mi. SALISBURY, of the Botanical Gardens this year cultivated tbe DaturaTat. ila; and that the Faculty and public may obtain the gennine sort, has sent the whole stock, properly dried, to Messrs. BUHGESS and Co. of tlie Chemical and Medical Hall, 20, in Bedford- street, Coveut- garden ; but iu justice to Surgeon FISHER, w ho brought the article into use, we must observe tbat bis Preparations aloBe have esta- blished the reflation of the Remedy. In two publication, on Diseases or the Lungs— one by Dr. RICHARD I! FIXE, 011 Asthma and Consumption, and the other by Dr. MOTTB CATOX, we find that a decided preference is given to Mr. FISHER1* Preparations; and Dr. MAURIS also asserts that he found them lo succeed after the OaluraStraiuOniu- ut aud Datura Tatnla had disagreed with his patients. Mr. FISHER, in order lliat the reputation of his preparation, should uot suffer by spurious articles or adulteiatiou, has, from inofivt s of humanity, appointed respectable . agents for the sale of litem throughout lite country T he smoking of fhe Prepared llerhltas been remarkably beneficial in Asthma and Wheeling, while IheOxymel of it, in Cases of Con- sumption ot lite Lungs, appears, by the respectable testi- monies published in the last edition ( the sixth) of MI.

SCORBUTIC COMPLAINTS are the most general Malady of the llritisb Constitution, no Family is, more or less, exempt from tbem, and they shew themselves in a Vaiiely of Ways; thev produce Roughness, Ulceration, and oilier diseased States of the Skin; they occasion Loss of Appetite, Weakness, and Dejection of Spirits, and the Mass of Blood beir. g rendered foul, it is incapable of affording a healthy Supply of Nourishment to enable the Functions of Life to be properly and actively performed. As a Remeilv for all Impurities from this Cause, Dr. FREEMAN'S GUTTA.

As Witness our Hands, SAMUEL DAVIKS, ANN DAVIES, late Invalid. Mr. KRESS being fully enabled to CINE all Diseases of the Eyes ( if curable) proposes to he consulted at his House in Hanmer, every Monday and Wednesday ; the other Days he will be at Liberty to attend Patients at their own Houses if required.

SIR— Permit rr> e lo request admission into your columns, of the following strictures on a subject which I consider as of first importance, and as litlle under- stood. Not being ambitions of sceirg my name in pr rt. yet anxious lo secure myself from any temptation to indilge in those unwarrantable liberties, disgraceful only to their authors, which the concealment of it is cTmrch in the world, should re'Mrtve our candlestick ( rotn its place, and suffer a herd of blind zealots once more to usurp that spiritual dominion among us, which their predecessors former! v ntthieved for the dreary space ef twenty long years; when the little finger M Puritanism proved far heavier than the loins of the English Hierarchy, though guided by an intemperate and impolitic Prelate, backed by the terrors of a Star Chamber and High Commission Court, tbe arbitrary maxims of Court Lawyers, and the hereditary prerogative of the House of Stuart. apt to encourage, I am willing fo disclose it to either ofthe writers whose opinions I have ventured to con- Lorl^ on Gazette ExirdOrdinafij troverl, upon their doing the same to you for rajs r| ** information. V/ I am, Sir, your obedient servant, ^ ^ | Captai The time is Hot very distant, and will net, alas! he very soon forgotten, when n knot of pretended philosophers, smitten with the charms of universal philanthropy, undertook the task, and were unhappily too successful in Iheir execution of it, of making the rest of mankind as enamoured of it, as themselves. In their dec'amatmns, parental affection and filial piety were narrow prejudices; patriotism an illiberal distinction: children owed Iheir fathers no gratitude fur having given ihem existence, or for having protected them during their tender years ; and if parents loved their own offspring better than tbev did those of other people, it was hut a foolish notion, and as such to be discountenanced titer than encouraged: nnd as to our loving our own country from the mere occidental circumstance of having been horn within its limits, this was for benea'h the dignity of a Citizen of the world, who was lo embrace Ihe whole of mankind within the oven arms of his universal benevolence, aud to reeard with the same affection a son or brother, and the raiive of Japan orOtabeite. The-) riidei: cy of this system to ( leaden the affections, and extinguish the generous sensibilities of the heart, was shewn in tbe < onduct of its original inventor and warmest advocate, who d> legated the core of his cbildten to the Puhlick Hospital, and whose demeanour through life wiis marked with pride, nornseness, and jeahnsy lo his dearest friends, with ( lis- r, intent and ingratitude to his most active benefactors: but its fatal effects hove been most dicadfufly exemplified in the aanguioary Itansaclions of the French Revolution ; which hive occasioned a gallant people lo reioice in repose from the incessant massacres perpetrated in the guise of philan- thropy, under the iron sceptre of on imperious despot, which thr. otens ere long to annihilate Ihe liberties of mankind. Mot that universal philanthropy is in itself an evil ; but that thee philosophical empirics began al the wrung Old, and instead of exalting our u. oie selfish feelings, by gradual cultivation, into that lost perfection of our nature, were for tearing awav at once the tirs and bonds which had been accusoircd to connect man with his fellow, and substituting in their room one paramount notion, too bulky to be em- braeed hy our faculties, and too indistinct to interest our affections. A prccefs similar to that whkh was effected in politics by tbe philanthropists, is now attempted to be intioduced hy the enthusiasts in religion. " We are told, that a predilection for one ehu'ch, or. for one system of doctrines more than another, is bigot ted, illiberal, exclusive, and intolerant; inconsistent with zeal for Ihe honour of God. and hostile tijthe perfect, ibi i'v o! Ihe human tare : lhat we are lo be ardent only for the abstract, idea of religion, careless of the particular form mo mbth it lea'' oupinr; and that by perseverance in this system of eralites. or rather this enmity to all systems, vie shall hasten the appmoch of thai bl. es, ed period, when Ihe eat til ' hall be full of the know ledge of the Lord as the waters cover tbe sea. There ate, however, who see much danger in all this; and wf( think. that as the theory of universal philanthropy, by reversing tbe order or nature, led in practice to the commissi, on o'" every cruelly ; so this unlimited liberality in religion, by reversing the otiler of God, will eventually tend to the extinction of ihe relicious principle, as far as human means extend, if it be suffered to pievail They contend, that the human, mind is incanable of grasping a generality,' oi copinir with an abstract idea, till it is embodied in some tp< cfic film: Ihf- y believe, that the Almighty, who best knows the rapacities und wonts of hi- creatures, has, under both the dispensations of bis rt waled word, presciilnd. a re, use of discipline and government, with which it is our duty to c tnply : thev disclaim all attachment to a particular church merely for the sake of ihc church itself, but they adhere toil, | Kcause Ihev conceive the maintenance of the church to be es- ential lo the support of religion, as the means ordained by God himself for the pieservotion of that inesti- mable gi'tomcng Ibe children of men ; ibev suspect all new discoveries in ihe ar. sptl; and they shudder at tbe danger of departing fiom the ancient wav, fiom the path marked out, n, they apprehend, by tbe finger of God himself, lo wa'k in any new road tmced cut bv the restless spirit of modern innovation. They know that Iheir terrors will be considered s » vain bv the unwary; and will te pretended to he 10 combined bv the designing ; but, though not indiffer- ent to the ooinion of the world, ihey love Ihe praise of God more than the praise of men, and are prepared to persist in iheir course, derided os they may be bv the sneers cf the fttfidel, or assailed by tbe fiautic ravings of tfe fanatick. Can it I'O wondered at, if. with these feelings, they call to tl eii bre* hrer. to rally round the banner of the Church, with the stability of which they conceive tbe dearest interests of religion and morality to be imepaiabty united'? Were cm dour consistent wilh tanalicism, to that would they moke Ihfil oopeal : but they confidently challenge the moderate of evcrv persuasion ; they ask even the sceptick himself, if he be. a candid one, to say, whether, uh. le he smiles at Iheir ( errors, he must not acknowledge lhat they are justified on their own principles, in exhorting iheir friends 10 union and self defence. And what more than this lias Dr. Marsh done, in Ihe Address which has called forth tbe aiigly aniinadveisions of two of your correspondents ? * What has he done un becoming " his reputation oa a writer, or his character as a Christian?" What, lhat lie shi old be drawn into an invidious comparison with the late excellent Bishop ol JJIUI on ? In IBE nan. E of truth, in the name decency, iu the name of every thing that is honest and of good report among men, wher'e has he" raised hie indignant quill against Ihe Bible Society >" How has he used " his influence to make llie clergv the last to bring back the knowledge of the King of Isiaet?" He admits, in its fullest extent, the right of Dissenteis to unite for the dispersion of bibles. He speaks in the most respectful terms of their exertions in the cause of religion. He d » es noi even arraign, in the slightest degree, the conduct of Churi hrnen in uniting with them for such a purpose : because, ( though he would not he backward, I presume, is expressing bis opinion of those, who, while they enjoy the emoluments of the church are indifferent to its prospeitty, ( ir who, foreseeing its downtall, seek tu make ftieiids of ils emmies, or who giasp ot the contemptible shadow of a voin populaiity,) he may believe, without any dereliction ot his own principles, that the many most respect- able numbers (. f our establishment ( among whom the late tiulv apostolical Bishop Porteus shall never be mentioned by me without the deepest aud most uufeignul veneratiun), who baveeuiulled themselves on the list of the B ble Society, do not see the dangers which he apprehends Ir- m such an union. But this does not impair his right to exhibit those dangers in the mobt striking view, which his unclouded intellect can dictate, and his neuous pen express: and I am persuaded lhat uo sober and reasonable member of the Ilible Sucietv it- elf will think ot all the woise of him on account i f his Addiess; but that, ou the contrary, Ins charoctcr as a warm triend, and as a fair antagonist, will rank still lughet than it Bow does, with every one who lays claim lo either of thos- honourable distinctions. Fiom a writer, indeed, who can apeak ot the clergv as keeping back tbe knowledge of Jrsas ; who can impute the religious divisions which now distrait 116 to the supporters ot the National Establishment ( which he does with piecisely the same regard to truth or sense, as if he should attribute the present disgraceful scenes at Nottingham lo the peact- t fitters and military fmce who endeavour to prevent those rioters from breaking the peace),— from such a » uter every one who varies au iota from his own dogmas, must expect no charity. The temper ahich pervades Ins letter is a memorable presage, and one which t trust will no. bi quii kly toigotten, of ihe tolerance of a certain description ol religionists among us; of the gentleness witl, which they would iieai their faculties, if Almighty God, provoked by ou: thankless indifference, our senseless clamouis, and our un- profiiable use nf the purest, im st apostolic, and most tukrniit unlive a loi g anil elan.

DOWNING- STREET, DEC. 16, 1811. ain Tylden, Military Secretary to Lieutenant- General Sir Samuel Auchmuty, arrived at the Secretary of Stale's Office this Day with Dispatches, addressed to the Earl of Liverpool hy Lord Miuto and Sir Samuel Auchmuty, of which the following are Copies. Balaviu, Id September, 1811. MY LOBE— I have the honour to submit to your lordship a copy of my letter to the Honourable the Court of Directors, of the lst September, inclosing His Excellency Sir Samuel Auchmuty's Report of Military Proceedings, in Java, to the 31st August.— Your lordship will observe, with satisfaction, that tbe conquest of Java is already substantially accom- plished, although the operations of the army have not hitherto been directed to the eastern parts of the island. But a powerful force is now embarking against Sourabaya, where, with the exception of the crews of two French frigates, the enemy has only a small body of native troops.— The armament which is now proceeding under the personal command of His Excellency the Commander in Chief, and wliich may reach its destination in ten days, cannot fail of overpowering any resistance the enemy may make, if auy should be attempted, and finally terminating the contest in Java. An Empire, which for two centuries has contributed greatly to the power, prosperity, and grandeur of one of the principal and most respected Slates of Europe, has been thus wrested from the short usurpation of Ihe French Government, added to the dominion of the British Crown, and converted from a seat of hostile maeb'notiou and commercial competition into an augmentation of British power and prosperity.-— For this signnl, and, as your lordship will collect from the enclosed documents, this most splendid and illustrious service, Great Britain is indebted to the truly Rritish intrepidity of as brave an army as ever did honour to bur country ; to the professional skill and spirit of Iheir officers, and to the wisdom, decision, and firmness of the eminent man who directed their courage, and led tbem to victory. Your lordship will, 1 am sure, share with me the gratifying refifction, that bv tbe successive reductions of the French Islands and Java, Ibe British nation has neither an enemy nor a rival left from the Cape of Good Hope to Cape Horn. I have, See. ( Signed) MINTO. To the Honourable the Court of Directors of the East India Company, London. HONOURABLE SIRS— I have the honour to inclose, for your information, a copy of a letter addressed to me by His Excellency Lieutenant- General Sir Samuel Auchmuty, Com- mander in Chief of the forces, serving on the expedition to Java, under dote the S'st August. The report which His Excellency has been pleased to make of the proceedings of the army under bis command is so full and explicit, while the actions which it recounts ore so honourable to tbe brave troops who performed them, aud the result is so important and decisive, that I should hove nothing to add to a communication so satisfactory, if His Excellency had not left one defect in his address which t think mvself entitled to supply.— Your Honourable Court will not find one word concerning himself, a modesty, which, being the natural companion of merit such as his, was the only heightening of which it was susceptible. But neither his Sovereign, his Country, nor the East India Company, whose commands he has on this occasion carried into effect, will forget the share which is due in these signal aud brilliant services to the superintending mind under whose directions they have been accomplished; nor will Ihey fail to appreciate the man who has led one of the bravest armies our country boasts to the most arduous atcbievements. I am conscious that no tcsti • mony of mine can be worthy their acceptance ; but I cannot repiess my sentiments, sanctioned, I am sure, by the unani- mous concurrence of every military authority, that the storming the works of Cornelis, followed by the total defeat and extinction of the whole concentrated army of the enemy, renders the 26th of August a day honourable to England, and glorious to Sir Samuel Auchmuty and the army he commauds. The fruit of this victory has been the expulsion of the French Government, and the establishment of the British, General Jansens has not capitulated, but has fled unattended, and is a fugitive in the mountains of Java. Under these circumstances, I have judged it expedient, with tbe concur- rence of His Excellency Sir Samuel Auchmuty, to assume the Government that has been abandoned ; and foi that purpose have published the proclamation, of which I have the honour to enclose a copy. I have the honour to be, fcc. ( Signed) MINTO, Balacia, Ijf September, 1811. Head- Quarters. IVcltrjreede, Aug. 31, 1811. Mv LORE— Afler a short but arduous campaign, the troops you did me the honour to place under my orders have taken the Capital of Java, have assaulted and carried the enemy's foimidable works at Cornells, have defeated and dispersed their collected force, and have driven them from the king- doms of Bantam and Jacatta. This brilliant success over a well appointed and disciplined force, greatly superior in numbers, and in every respect well equipped, is the result ot the great zeal, gallantry, and discipline of the troops; quali- ties which they have possessed in a degree, certainly never surpassed. It is my duty to lay befure your lordship the details of tbeir success, but it is not in my power to do them the justice they deserve, or to express how much the. r country is indebted to them for their great exertions. Your lordship is acquainted with the reasons that induced me to attempt a landing in the neighbouihood of Bata* ia It was effected without opposilion at the Village of Chilling ching, twelve miles east of the city, on ihe 4th instant. Mv intention was to proceed from thence by the direct road to Cornells, where the enemy's force was said to be assembled in a strongly foitified position, and to place the city of Batavia in my rear, firm whence alone I could expect to derive sup- plies equal to the arduous contest we were engaged in. As some time was required to make preparations for an inland movement, I judged it proper to reconnoitre the road by ihe coast leading to Batavia, a: d observe how far it would be practicable to penetrate by that route. I was aware tint it was extremely strong, and, if well defended, nearly impracti- cable, Advancing with part of the army, I had the satis faction to find that it was not disputed with us, and ttie only obstacle to our progress was occasioned by Ihe destruction of the bridge over the Anjol River. I approached the river ou the bib, and observing during that evening a large lire iu Batavia, 1 concluded it was the intention of the enemy to eva- cuate the city ; aud wilh this impression I diiecied the ad vance of tbe army under Colonel Gillespie, to pass the river in boats on the succeeding night. They lodged themselves in tbe hubuibs of the city, and a temporary bridge was hastily constiucted on Ihe morni;> g of the 8th, capable of supporting light artillery. On that day the Burghers of Batavia applied for protection, and sut rendered the city without opposition, the garrison having retreated to Weltevreede.— The posses- sion of Batavia was ofthe uimost importance, Th ugh large storehouses ot public properly were burnt by the enemy, previous fo their retreat, and every effort made to destroy the remainder, we were fortunate in preserving some valuable granaries, and other stores. The'city, although abandoned by tne principal inhabitants, was filled wilh an ludustriouf race of people, who could be particularly useful lo Ihe atmv. Provisions were in abundance, and an easy communication preseived with the fleet. In the night of Ihe 8ih, a feeble attempt was made by the enemy, to cut off' a small guard I had sent for the security of the place, but the troops of the advance had, unknown to them, reinforced the party early in the evening, and ihe attack was repulsed. The au'^ unce undei Coluriel Gillespit occupied the city. on the 9ih, Very early on the morning o the loth, I directed Colonel Gillespie, with his corps, to move from Batavia, towa ds the enemy's cantonment at Weltevreede, supported by two brigades of infantry,- that maiched belore break of day through the city, anil followed ins route. The cantonment was abandoned, but the enemy weie iu force a little beyond it, and about two miles in advance of their woi ks at Cornells. Their position was strong, aud defended by an ahbatls, occupied Oy tlnet thousand oi their best ttoops, snd four gunsut horse artillery; Colonel Gil'espie attai ked it with spirit aud judgment; ami, al. er an obstinate resistance, curried it al the point of the bayonet, completely looted their force, and took their guns A strung column from their woiks advanced to their sup[> oii. tiul om line being arrived, they weie instantly pursued, and driven under shelter of their batteries.— In tins affair, so Creditable to Colonel Gillespie, and all ttie corps of tbe advance, the grenadier company of the 78th, and the detach- ment ol the 89th regiment particularly distinguished them- selves, by charging and capturing the enemy's artillery. Our lo- s was trifling, compared with the enemy's, which mat- be estimated at about five bundled men, with Brigadier General A'berti, dangerously wounded. — Though we had hitherto been successful, beyond my most sansftiine expect ations, cur further progress became extremely difficult, and somewhat doubtful.— The enemy, greatly superior in num- bers, was strongly entrenched in a position between tbe Great - River jaeatra and the Sloken, an artificial watercourse, neither of which were fordable. This position was shut up by a deep trench, strongly pallisaded. Seven redoubts, and many batteries, mounted with heavy cannon, occupied the most commanding grounds within tbe lines. The Fort of Cornelia ivas'in the center, and the whole of the works was defended by a numerous and well organised artillery. The seasonWas too. far advanced, the heat too violent, and onr numbers insufficient, to admit of regular approaches. To carry the works by assault was the alternative, and on that I decided.— In aid of this bieasiire, I erected some batteries, to disable the principal ledoubts, and for two days kept up a heavy fire from twenty eighteen- pounders, and eight mortars and howitzers. Their execution was great, and I bad the pleasure to find, that tboiigh answered at the commencement of each day, by a far ttiore thrtierous artillery, fre daily silenced their nearest batteries, ' considerably disturbed every p3rt of their position, and were evidently superior in OUT fire. At dawn of day, on llie Q6th, the assault was made. ^ The principal attack was entrusted tc, that gallant ah( l experienced officer. Colonel Gillespie. He bod the infantry of the advance, and Ihe grenadiers of the tine with bt'm, and \ va. - supported by Colonel Gibbs, with the 59th regiment and the 4th battalion of Bengal volunteers. They were intended, if possible, to surprise the redoubt No. 3, constructed by the enemy beyond the. Sloken, to endeavour to cross the bridge over that stream with the fugitives, and then to assault the ledoubts within the lines, Colonel Gillespie attacking those to the left, and Colonel Gibbs to tbe right. Lieutenant- Colonel M'Leod, with six companies of the 69th, was directed to follow a path, on the bank of the Great River, and when ihe attack had commenced on the Sloken, to endeavour to possess himself . of the enemy's left redoubt No. 2. Major Tufe, with the flank corps of tbe reserve, reinforced by two troops of cavalry, four guns of horse artillery , two companies of tbe 69th, and the grenadiers of the reserve, was directed to attack the corps at Camporg Maylayo, on the west of the Great River, and endeavour tn cross the bridge at that post.— The remainder of the army, under Major- Genei al Wetberall, was at the batteries, where a coliimn, under Colonel Wood, consisting of the 73th regiment, and the Sth volunteer bat- talion, was directed to advance against the enemy in front, and, at a favourable moment, when a'- d/ d by the other attacks, to force his way, if practicable, and open the position for the line,— The enemy was under arms, and prepared for the combat, and General Jansens, tho Commander in Chief, was in the redoubt where it commenced. Colonel Gillespie, after a long detour through a close and intricate country, came on their advance, routed it in an instant, and with a rapidity never surpassed, under a heavy lire of grape aud musquelry, possessed himself of the advanced redoubt, No. 3, He passed the bi idge with the fugitives, under as tremendous a fire, and assaulted, and carried with the bayonet, tbe red uht, No. 4, after a most obstinate resistance. Here tbe two divisions ofthe column separated. Colonel Gibbs turned to the riaht, and with Ihe 59tli and part of Ihe 78th, who had now forced their way in front, carried the redoubt No. 1. A tremendous explosion of the magazine of this work ( whether accidental or designed is not ascertained), took place at the instant of its capture, and destroyed a number of gallant '. fficers and men, who at the moment were crowded on its ramparts, which the enemy had abandoned. The redoubt, No. 2, against which Lieutenant- Colonel M'Leod's attack was directed, was cairied in as gallant a style ; and I lament to slate, that most valiant and experienced officer fell at. the moment of victory. The front of the position was now open, and the troops rushed in fiom every quarter.— During the operations on the light, Colonel Gillespie pursued his advan- tage to the left, carrying the enemy's redoubts towards the rear, and being joined bv Lieutenant- Colonel M'Leod, of the 59th, with part of that corps, be directed him to attack the park of artillery, which lhat officer carried in a most masterly manner, pu'ting to flight a bndv of the enemy's cavalry that formed, and attempted todefeud it. A sharp fire of musquetry was now kept up bv a strong body of the enemy, who had taken post in the lines in front of Fort Cornells; hut were driven from them, the fort taken, and the eneillv completely dispersed. They were pursued by Colonel O'llea . ie, with the 14th regiment, a party of - epoys, and the seamen from the batteries under Captain Sayer, of the roval navy, By this time the cavalry and horse artillery bad effected a passage through the lines, the former commanded by Major Travers, and the Istter by Captain Noble; and, with the gallant Colonel at their h « 3d, the pursuit was continued, till the whole of rhe enemy's army wa- killed, taken, or dispersed.— Major Tule's attack was equally spirited, but. after routing the enemy's force at Campong Malavo, and killing manv of them, he fouud the bridge on fire, and was unable to penetiate further. I have the honour to Inclose a return of the loss sustained, from our lauding on the 4th to the 2fith inclusive. Sincerely I lament its extent, aud the many valuable arid able officers that have unfortunately fallen; but when the piepared state of the enemy, their numbers, and the strength of their positions, are considered, 1 trust it will not be deemed heavier than might be expected. Their's has greatly exceeded it, III the action of tbe 26th, the numbers killed wne immense, but it has been impossible to form any accurate statement of the amoupt. About one thousand have been buried in the works, multitudes were cut down in the retreat, the rivers are cboaked up with dead, & the huts and woods were filled with the wi. united, who have since expired. We have taken near five thousand prisoners, amongst whom are three general officers, thirty- four field officers, seventy capta ns, and one hundied ard fifty subaltern officers ; General Jansens made his escape with difficulty during the action, and reached Buitenzoig, a distance of thirty miles, wilh a fewcavalrv, the sole remains of an army of ten thousand men.

Here follow letters fr" m Rear- Admiral Stopford, which relate to the part taken bv the Navy in the expedition, and which is mentioned in the General's dispatch. — Total killed, wounded, and missing, 73 officers, seamen and marines— no officer killed. A copy of a letter fi- nrn Cap'ain Hoare, of the Minden, relatesto two contests with five hnnred ofthe enemy's chosen troops, which ended in their total defeat, after losing 50 killed and 100 wounded, by two hundred soldiers, marines, and seamen, landed from that ship.— British loss, 2 killed and 23 wounded. A letter from Lieutenant E, Lyons, of the same ship, details a most daring attack of two boats crews, consisting of 34 men, on Fort Marrack, on tbe coast of Java, which they stormed, though defended by 180 soldiers, and the crews of two gun- boats, and mounting 54 guns.] Island of Java.— The island of Java is situate between six and nine degrees of south latitude, and extends from 120 to 131 desrees east longitude, from Teneriffe. The arm ofthe sea, which runs between Java arid Sumatra, is known by the appellation of the Straits of Sunda. The length of this chan- nel, on the Sumatra side, is about fifteen German mile ® , and and that of Java, to Bantam point, full twenty. The Dutch East India Company claimed an absolute sovereignty over the Straits of Supda, which, in the zenith of their power, was ac- knowledged hy other States. The road of Batavio is esteemed one of the best in the world, the anchorage beiug excellent. Vessels, when once brought to an anchor, are in perfect safety, and there is sufficient room for the united navy of Europe to tide at anchor in perfect safely. Although the road is open from the N. W. to F,. N. F„ ships lie as secure and quiet as if land locked, on ao'eountof the numerous islands which break the force of the waves. Within the islands, tbe current is so gentle, that ships are never obliged to moor head and stern. I'here are no large rivers in Java navigable by vessels 6f even a moderate burden, but many small ones. Their mouths ore, for the most part, closed up with sand or mud banks, which render the entrance difficult for the smal- lest vessels. The chief produce of ihe island is pepper, of which the kingdom of Bantam yielded annually to the Dutch East India Company six millions of pounds. It is esteemed second in quality to that grown on the coast of Malabar ; but the price at which the King of Bantam is compelled lo sell it does not exceed twopence halfpenny ( English) per Ih. The white pepper is only black pepper laid in lime, which occasions the black skin to peel off. Rice is the second pro- duce of Java, which has been called the granary of the east, in consequence of its immense produce of this species of grain. In 1767 Java furnished 14,000 tons of rice for Ceylon, Banda, and other settlements. Suzar is » lso cultivated to a great extent. In 1768 the province of Jaeatra alorte furnished more than 8000 hogsheads, of 15 cut. each. The next produce of . lava is coffee, which was onlv introduced in the year 1722. In 1768 Jacatra furnished to the Company 20,000 bigs, of two cwt each. The price paid bv the Company is Us. 6d. per ewt. Cotton varn is an important object of trade in Java. It is spun from the cotton produced in the island, and which grows in areat abundance. Salt and indigo are native productions of Java. The north east coast of Ihe island abounds ru heavy timber suitable for ship building. The abundance of fruits of various descriptions is astonishing. Oranges, lemons, shaddocks, pineapples, cocoa- nuts, and many other unknown in Europe, even by name, flourish luxuriantly. This island has invaria- bly been deemed of the first importance to Holland, which derived from its possession some' of the. most valuable aiticles of her commerce. Cock . fighting is the favourite diversion of the Javanese, who pay a tax to the Company for keeping those birds. The Mahometan religion prevails throughout the island. There are plenty of horses, but of a diminutive « ize, and buffaloes are invariably used for every purpose of agricul The Gazette of Tuesday contains an account of the Si Francis Drake, Captain G. Harris, having captured, off Rembang, in the East Indies, a flmilla of 14 of the enemy's gun- vessels. " The loss of the enemy," Captain H. says, " must have been great, as their boats ( in , wbk- h the crews w. re endeavouring to escape to the shore) being smalt, and overloaded with men, arms, and ammunition, many were capsized, aud most of the men in them, as well as those that jumped overboard, drowned ; the scene, I understand, was truly piteous, as the officers commanding the boats were El- evented from affording that relief which humanity would ave dictated." The boats of the Procris sloop, Captain K. Maunsell, have captured, in tbe same seas, five prows, armed as gun- boats, and a sixth blew up during the attack. The Arrow schooner assisted by the boats ofthe Colossus and Conquestador, made an attack, on the lst instant, on an enemy's convoy, off Isle d'Aix, of which one chasse maree was brought out, three burnt, and three stranded. The Ranger sloop, Captain Acklom, has taken a Danish privateer, of 10 guns, aud 66 men ; the Censor brig, Lieut. Lucas, has captured a French lugger privateer, of 4 guns, and 12 men; and the Forward gun- brig, Lieut R. Bankcs, has taken a Danish privateer, of 4 gnns, and 18 men, together with a Danish sloop, laden with iron, & c. all on the coast of Norway.

In that Species of D snrder called Green Sickness, which isdenoted by a pale, sickly Countenance, and proceeds from a general Relaxation of the System, attended with a Lassitude and Want of Inclination to move, Fothergil'a Female Pills are a most sovereign Remedy ; they amend Ilia Appetite, correct ihe vitiated Slate of the Stomach and digestive Organs, where there is Inclination for eating Chalk, and the most unhealthy Trash, and where, from Indolence of the Patient, dropsical Symptoms are apt to arise; they remove nervous Head Aches and Giddiness, Shortness of Breath, and Palpitations of the Heait, and all the other Train of Disorders which are connected with the above Complaints. To married Women thev are no less beneficial, they invigorate the Constitution, give Tone and Firmness to the Habit, and are the best Restoratives where the Woman is weakened by bad Lvings- tn, her Health impaired by too long Suckling, or where she has been subject to frequent Miscarriages. I11 ail these Situations Fotherail's Female Pills may be regatded as the Female Sheet- anchor of Health, and resorted to as a never failing Remedy against the most desperate aud incurable Diseases which afflict the Sex ; they should be in Ihe posses- sion of ereryMother and Guaidian of the young Females as a Family Mediciue.

Comfort for the Afflicted. Dr. SMITH'S PLOUGHMAN'S DROPS. J J I****** ******** of PRESS HBATH, near Whitchurch, beiug induced, fur the Benefit of my Fellow Creatines, to lav mv Case before ihe Public, did authorize Dr. SMITH, of Upton Magna, near Shrewsbury, to publish ail Accouut ol the Cuie Ireceived by taking his PLOUGHMAN'S DROPS: anil do now voluntarily come forward, and make the following Statement: — Being at Wellington, in the County of Salop, in July. I8u9, where 1 followed my Employment of a Shoemaker, I peiueived I had contracted the Venereal Disease. I tnado immediate Application to a Professional Gentleman there, under whose Care 1 continued for a considerable Time, without experiencing any Reliel whatever, but, on the con- trary, found myself grow woise and worse, till at length I was reduced to a melancholy Situation indeed, by the internal and external Use of Mercury. Hopeless of receiving any Benefit, and having both my Constitution and Patience nearly worn out, 1 gave up all Hopes of beiug cured by the Mer- curial Preparations, which only exhausted my Frame, without in the least Degree, abating the Viiuleuceol tne Disorder^ wh ch by this Time was arrived to an alarming Pitch indeed; 1 took Hie Resolution of returning to my Home, near Whit- church and seeking Relief elsewhere. I put myself under the C ire of another Gentleman of the Faculty, who gave me some Relief, and as 1 thought cured me; but, after some Time, the Disotder biokeout with greater Violence than ever, and my Condition nearly reduced me to Despondency. Having 110 Hopes from the Faculty, who had entirely failed in I heir Efforts to eradicate the Disorder, it was now that I found one ol Dr. SMITH'S Hills of " Comfort to the Afflicted," and detei pained on giving it a Trial: I bought a Bottle of Mr. Junes, Printer, Whitchurch. On the third day of lakins il 1 found wonderful Alteration for the better, and before I had finished the first Bottle, I had Ihe cheating Prospect hefore me of being at last cured of tilts afflicting Disorder, and before I had finished the thud Buttli.-, I found myself in a Situation far different from what 1 was when I lelt Welling- ton; I had now comfortable Sleep ot Night, my Spirit* returned, and my Health was completely re- established. Thus, by taking the inestimable PLOUGHMAN'S DP, OPS, was I rescued from the Grave, aud a State bordeiing oa Des- pair. Signed in the Presence of R. B.
