SATURDAY'S Garetu: contains dispatches from Admiral Cochrane, Commander in Chief at the Leeward Islands, giving an account of the capture of four Spanish and four French vessels, by the British cruizers upon that station. Parliamentary Intelligence.— An Address' to his Majesty, thanking him for his most gracious Speech ( which was inserted in our last) was moved, on Friday, in the House of Lords, by the Kail of . Jersey, and seconded by Lord Somers, which, after a few observations made by Lord Hawkcsbury, passed una- nimously. The Address in the House ot Commons was moved by Mr. W. Lamb, and seconded by Mr. John Smith. The Address passed without a division. The most prominent proceedings in- the two Houses which claim attention, is the fact broadly and une- quivocally stated by Ministers, that not only did tliere exist no concert between this country ar. d Pi ussia, with respect to the war between the latter and France, but that even after the disastrous battle of Aiiorstadt, the Prussian Government did not deign to make any reply to the conciliatory overtures, of which Lord Morpeth was the bearer. On the misfortunes of Prussia, and the recent, and terrible wound which Europe has received, Mr. Canning dircctly maintained that the positive demands of the Ministry respecting Hanover, presenting motives to France for wresting from Prussia that country on which her affections were so deeply fixed, was the cause of the unfortunate and " precipitate resolution which has now laid the hopes of Europe so low. The fear of losing through Great- Britain a possession so important, drove Prussia to despair, and to the dread- ful chance of the sword, as her last resort. Lord Howick answered this by alledging the necessity under which they were placed of reclaiming Hanover without an equivalent, as it was unlawfully seized, being not subject to the laws of a war in which Great- Britain alone was engaged; and as, should it not have been thus rigidly demanded, it would have afforded a precedent to seize it in a similar manner, as often as a war broke out between France and England. Mr. Canningseverely ani- madverted upon the appointment of Maj.- Gen. Crauford to a distant- command, over the heads of many Officers of superior rank— the recal of Sir John Sruart from Sicily ; and likewise the recal of Sir Home Pophain and Sir David Baird, from the Cape of Good Hope. To thesecharges Lord Howick replied, that Ministers had ever the selection of Officers ; witness the choice of Lord Nelson, a junior Admiral, to a command in the Mediterranean, & c & c. The appointment of General Crawford, his Lordship said, could not give so much offence to the army, as the appointment of Sir Home Pophain did to the navy, who was so low as ICO in. the list of Captains, and only made Post in 1795. With regard to the recal of Generals Stuart and Baird, and Sir Home Popham; General Stuart had under him, at lirst, a force of - 1000 men, afterwards increased to 7 - 00. but now that it was augmented to lti. OOJ men, it wis to great an army to be commanded, except incascof necessity, by a Major- General. He said this without any disparagement to the gallant Officer, of whose exploits no man could entertain a higher opinion than. he did. General Fox had succeeded te thecommand. As to General Bairdand Sir H. Fopham, he acknowledged that lie felt himself in duty compelled to advise their recal. These. Ollicers on their own authority, undertook an expediiionto South America, which was entirely out of the limits of their com- mand. They were destined for the East Indies, but instead of obeying their orders, they proceeded in their South American expedition, and for that purpose stripped the Cape of Good Hope of all its troops and shipping, so that that valuable conquest must have surrendered to any hostile force, had any such ap- l> eared before it. They also took up in that expe- dition the troops destined for the East Indies, and the money that was intended for their payment. When the House looked to the otlcct such a conduct must have upon military discipline, it would be evident that it could not be endured. He acknowledged that Buenos Ayrcs was J very valuable conquest, and might be turned to the greatest advantage for the com- merce of this country ; but he could not avoid cen- suring tile invitation ' if Sir Home Popbam to the manufacturers to send out their goods there merely upon his own authority. Such conduct afforded a very bad precedent, a it encouraged officers to look up to that ill- advised institution of the Patriotic Fund, for the reward of services, instead of looking only to the Government. Besides, if ollicers in any part of th- j world were to act as they pleased, instead of obey- ing their orders, the authority of the Government was gone, and tne interest of the country dependent upon any specula'ion. To encourage, therefore, sucli a conduct, however fortunate it may turn out, would be to sap the vital principles of our navai and military establishments. The House of Commons met on Saturday, to receive the report of the Address to his Majesty, and on othe' business.— Son- re furfher discussions took place" relative to public affairs.— A Petition from Mr. Paull, against tile return of Mr. Sheridan for West- minster, was presented i> y Lord Folkestone. In the whole, the number of Petitions against returns to tbi new Parliament will amount to no less than forty- eight. Dutch Papers to the 18th inst. were received on Saturday. Bv them we have accounts of the ope- rations of the armies in Poland to the 2d insf. No general action, however, had then taken place. It appears, that on the 20th ult. the advanced guards of the two armies fell in with each other, and a skirmish took place, in which it is stated, that the Russians were repulsed, and a regiment of Cossacks taken prisoners. On the 27th, some mor skirmishing took placc, in which the French are represented as having had the advantage; and on the 23th, the French, tinder Devoust, entered Warsaw, the Russians having previously re- crossed the Vistula, and burnt the bridges. It also ap pears, if we are to believe the assertions contained in the 38th Bulletin, that the Poles have hailed Bonaparte as their deliverer, and pant to become once more a free and independent nation. 1 he arrival of the King of Prussia at Osterodc, in East Prussia, is mentioned, where, it is said, Uuroc is gone to meet liirn. If this statement be true, wo may sooa expect to hear of the complete degrada- tion and disgrace of this unfortunate Prince. To the above Bulletin is annexed a Proclamation of Napoleon to his army. It tells them that they are the conquerors of Austerlitz, and that the blamcable generosity he then shewed was the cause of the 4th coalition. But the enemy who supported it, he says, is now no more. The French armies have overcome every difficulty, and the Russians have in vain hoped to defend the capital of Poland. Lastly he informs them that lie will not lay down his arms " till a general peace has restored freedom to his commerce, and given him back his colonies." " On the Elbe and the Oiler," says he, " we have reconquered Pondicherry, all our possessions in India, the Cape of Good llope, and the Spanish colonies." The concluding sen- tence is worthy of Bonaparte; " Shall there be a comparison made between the Russians and us? Are we not, then the soldiers of Austerlitz?" By an American vessel from the East Indies, letters dated the 28th of July, were yesterday re- ceived at the East- India House. We are sorry to hear that they communicate intelligence of a very disagreeable occurrence. At Vellore, shortly before the date of the letters, a battalion of Sepoys, in consequence, as it is supposed, of a quarrel about some women, fell upon the loth, regiment of native infantry, and put every man to death, including Gen. Armstrong and another Officer. ' A regiment of cavalry, brought from Arcot to quell the insurgents, attacked the Sepoys, and refusing to give quarter, desisted nut till every tnnn of them wift cut to pieces. We are assured, that this unfortunate disturbance did not originate in any disaffection to the Government. Saturday a notice was stuck up at the Custom- Ilouse, for carrying into effect the Act for abolish- ing all fees and holidays in that department, ex- cepting the following holidays, viz. Sundays, Christmas- dav, Good Friday, the Anniversaries of the Restoration of King Charles II. of the Corona- tion of the King, and of the birth- days of their Majesties, and the Prince of Wales. It would tend much to the accommodation of the Public, if similar regulations were to take place at the Stamp and Excise Offices; and we understand that Go- vernment intend speedily taking the subject into consideration. We are happy to state, that a letter was received on Friday from Mr. Maxfield, of the Portsmouth Theatre, contradicting the account of Mr. Sliat- ford's company of Comedians being drowned on the 10th instant. On the contrary, he asserts, that the company played at Poole Theatre on 1 hurs- day, Friday, and Monday last; and that Mr. Shatford dined with hi « i, at Portsmouth, on Thurs- day and Friday. It appears they did embark on board the Ann, at Cowes; but, owing to bad weather, the vessel put into Lymington, where they disembarked,, and travelled the rest of the journey by land.

BY the Htisum Mftil, letters have been received, wh'ch state positively, that so late as the 3d • of December no movements had taken place • among the Poles situated between Posen and Warsaw, indicative of their disposition to arm in • defence of France. These letters likewise assert, that the King of Prussia had, before his departure for Russia, signified his determination to listen to 110' new terms of Armistice; as also, that all the actions which took place between the 20th and the £? ih, when the French entered Warsaw, had ter- minated in favour of the Russians, their move- ments in the neighbourhood of the Vistula being • greatly facilitated by the situation of the country. This fact may account for the silence of the Stith Bulletin in regard to the. issue Of those movements, and warrant the reports which continue to prevail respecting the losses sustained by the enemy in this line of march. It will, we believe, be found, that tfeeir entrance into Warsaw was, as the Rus- sians had previously manoeuvred their ground, : iind of retreat. Tuesday arrived some French and Dutch Papers ^ bringing " clown the Paris news to the. 10th, and " Dutch to the 14th inst. The most interesting article in these Journals is •{ hat which relates to Turkey. Every line evinces the reluctance with which it Is announced that the Russian Ambassador at Constantinople has re- gained his ascendancy over the Porte," and brought it to conditions highly unworthy of its dignity, and the present relations in which it stands with France." The decree of blockade is'stated to have been already executed in Holland, and the northern part o'f Germany, LOSS OF L'AmiiN^ NNE. The following interesting narrative of the loss of the L'Atbenienne, is given by one of the persons saved:— " His Majesty's ship L'Athcnieune, commanded by Captain Robert Raynsford, having on board 470 men, sailed from Gibraltar on the Kith of October, and arrived off Sardinia on the 20th; from whence she proceeded towards Malta: buf unfortunately, at about half- past nine o'clock in the evening of that day, w hen going nine knots, struck on the rocks called the Esquerques. It immediately became necessnry to lighten the ship, to prevent her from falling over on her broadside; and the masts were cut away for that purpose; but, in less than half an hour after, from the violent concussion of the'rocks on her bottom, she filled up to the lower- deck ports, and fell on her beam ends, on the larboard side. Captain Rayns- ford ordered the boats to be hoisted out, with an idea tha- they would be useful in towing a raft that was constructing to leeward, but so soon as the two jolly- boats were lowered down from the quarters, and clear of the ship, the men ( for there were no officers with them), bore up, and were no more seen by the unhappy persons who staid by the wreck. The Cutter and barge, in hoisting out, were stove and swamped, and thirty men, unable to regain the ship, perished. By the fail of the masts several people were killed, and desperately mangled, and two midshipmen were killed by the spanker- boom crushing them between it and the side. The termination of the miseries of all ap- peared fast approaching; and the launch, being the only boat that was not either stove or wrecked, was filled with men » n the booms, and without having the means of mechanical power, or the op- portunity of using it, the water having at this ! time covered the whole wreck, with the exception I of the poop, she floated off the booms, to the I great joy of every one, and escaped the many ' dangers she had to encounter from the broken It is reported in the above Papers,- that Austria j masts and floating pieces of the ship; and after ns consented to cede her Polish territory, together j wards came under the stern, where many, in at- with Salr/ burgh, Berchtolsgaden, and the Iiinver- tiel; And that she is to receive Silesia.— Eight thousand Russians have landed atMarasca in Dal- matia, from Corfu. The fellow who proposed to Mr. Fox, to assassi- nate Bonaparte, is said to lie now in the Bicetre; " Bonaparte ( adds the Paris Papers) seeing nothing in such a project but a proof of insanity." The following intelligence is brought by a vessel which left Husum on the 5th inst.— Letters from Altona of the 2d inst. repeat the account of the French having been defeated by the Russians. Travellers arrived from Berliu state, that from 900 to 1200 waggons of wounded French soldiers ar- rived in that city on the 2? tlr, and three following davs. The hospitals of Custrin and Stettin are described as full of sick and wounded. On the 55th ult. Davoust was attacked by a corps of 600 Cossacks, while reconnoitring the Russian out- posts, and compelled to fall back,- although sup- ported by 1000 Poles; most of his cffv'alry were killed.— The French have emptied the Hessian and Saxon arsenals, and sent their contents partly to France, and partly to Poland.— A Russian column passed through Memei on the 20th and 21st. Lord Hutchinson and suite arrived at C/ ipen- hagen on the 2d inst. and they immediately set sail In prose iitios of his mission, on board the Alert. American f.- cer tempting to swim to her, shared the untimely fate [• of those that preceded them.— At this time, about half- past eleven at night, there being but little I hope of the ship holding together till morning,! I urged Captain Raynsford to save himself by I swimming to the launch, but in vain, he declaring ; to me that he was perfectly resigned to his fate, ! and was determined not to quit his post whilst a man remained, but advised me to do that which I had recommended to him; and at the moment that the launch, full of people, was bearing up before the wind, I leaped from the stern gallery into the sea, and, swimming through a very high surf, gained the boat, and providentially escaped A- n Order of Council has passed for permitting the opening of trade with thc Government of Hayti. The traffic in negroes is strictly prohibited. Contested Harmonious Ringing.— The inhabitants of Spitaltields have, for six weeks back, had their attention drawn to a contest between two Societies of change ringers ( the Senior and Junior Societies of Cumberland Youths) for the first peal of Sieadman Grandsire Cinques, on the peal of twelve bells at Christ Church, each taking their turn; the Juniors' weekly day on Mondays, and the Seniors on Saturdays. The Junior Society took the lead, and completely brought round an abstract of a peal of Steadman Grandsire Cinques, con- taining 5080 changes, in 3 hours and 5o minutes, on Monday the 15th inst. by twelve men only, and conducted by Mr. John Noonan.— And on Satur- day last, the 20th, the Senior Society of Cumber- land Youths ascended the steeple of Christ Church, and ill 4 hours and 55 minutes completely brought round also an abstract of a peal of Steadman Grandside Cinques, containing 6334 changes; the peal was conducted by Mr. George Cross, and rung by twelve men only, notwithstanding the tenor is 44 cwt. bell- metal. This contest ended harmo- niously; thc Junior Society being highly delighted hy ringing the first peal in that method, on those bells ; and the Senior Society equally pleased by ringing the greatest number of changes in that difficult method on them. The whole peal on 12 bells contains 479,001,600 changes. On Monday evening last, a fire broke out in the dock- yard, at Portsmouth, which threatened very alarming consequences. Between four and five o'clock, the flames were seen to burst from the house in - which the rope is baked, and the twine tarred, for the use of the sail- makers. The wind was high, and blew directly towards the rigging and sail- lofts, between which and the fire was a quantity of light dry timber. The moment the fire was discovered from the Audacious, lieutenant Smith hastened on shore, with a party of sailors, to assist in extinguishing it; but on arriving at the spot, no engine had arrived, and there were no buckets at hand: a supply was immediately pro- cured from the Audacious, and, by the exertions ! of the seamen, the fire was prevented from i spreading farther. During Robbery.— Some evenings ago, about j seven o'clock, four men with crapes over their i faces, entered the house of Mr. Spencer, at Pon- ! dei's- End, Middlesfcx, in the following manner :— j The maid- servant, who was with her mistress in , the parlour, hearing a knock at the door, imine- I diately opened it, when a man presented u pistol, i threatening to blow her brains out if she made any alarm; and himself and three more rushed into | the parlour to Mrs. Spencer, whom, with the LADIES' BOARDING - SCHOOL, St. Peter's Green, Bedford.

Meanwhile, thc other three rummaged the parlour and different rooms in the house; but not finding much money, they returned t* the kitchen, and demanded of all separately their oney, which was immediately complied with.

Extraordinary occurrence at the London Tavern, Bishopsgate- street.— A meeting of the Subscribers to the Philantrophic Annuity Society, proposed by Mr. Ludlam, of Welbeck- street, Mary- le- bone, took place at this Tavern on Wednesday. It is necessary to premise, that Mr. Ludiam, for some time past, has had the misfortune to be snbjet to temporary derangement; and the very great atten- tion he bus given to the Philantrophic Annuity Plan, us it is called, has had the effect not only to I revive, but to fix his disorder. In conducting the meeting, he evinced the utmast propriety and regularity in his proceedings, until iie was opposed in some of his resolutions by the share- holders, when lie became irritable and incon- ; 21st, and The sum being only a few shillings, which they ; next day j happened to have in their poekets, quite exas- to the 20th of November, We been received. It would seem that another j revolution, preceded by the most atrocious and • sanguinary transactions, have taken place in St. Domingo. The following article is extracted from a New- York Paper of the 19th ult:— " Philadelphia, Nov. 16.— By advices from Cape ISrancois, via Alexandria, information is received that the Emperor Dessalines had been assassinated. It appears that, previous to this event, he had ordered the General Capua, at Port de Paix, and General Bcaayes, at the Cape, to be shot, which j fc. is obeyed. Several other of his principal officers ' bad also'been executed previous to his death. No ^ _ ^ ^ eertaia accounts of the situation of the Americans j buVjiu'ss" of'the are received, but the island is stated to have been 1 in a great ferment, & c. This news comes by the ' Pmckuey schooner, from the Cape." The Votes of Thanks of both Houses of Par- sistenHn hi" s behaviour". He proposed to such liament to Major- General Sir John Stuart, and j gcnt| emen as were dissatisfied with his management, tiie officers and privates who served under bun ( aml h. irt all interest in the plan, to purchase their • t the glorious battle of Maida, were on Monday < sl, arc, , u a gu; nfia premium. Manv of them ac- passed uuammously. In the House ot Lords, the j ce( ied t(, thc proposal, a„ d arranged " with him ac- • ubject was introduced by Lord Grcnville; in the cor( jjngi„ As soon as the proceedings were over, House of Commons, by Mr. Windham. I he j al) out fjur o'clock, Mr. Ludlam ordered a dinner wonderful achievements ot our gallant countrymen > tol. |, j, nsejf and his clerk, Mr. Noble, in one of the parlours, which looks into Bishopsgate- street. Mr. Peacock, one of the proprietors, as is usual, tirok in the first dish, and remaining after the • in this celebrated contest were very properly com- pared with the most brilliant actions m our history; • and its happy effect was described as inestimable • t this particular period, because it not only raised our national glory to the highest degree of renown, but proved beyond a doubt, that, man to man, or even wiien we were very inferior in numbers, the courage and capacity of the British truops were superior to every effort of our common enemy— that enemvwho has nearly conquered and subjugated the whole inhabitants nf tUe Continent of Europe. The effect, of this contest— so eloquently described by Sir John Stuart in the official account of the battle of Maida— also very happily proved, in complete contradiction to the assertions of the French, that e>'. r brave countrymen were as far superior to them by land as by se a; and that, on great occasions we v. cre still animated by the same national spirit tvhich bad gained us immortal glory ill the battles » f Poiotiers, Cr » ssy, aud Agincourt. In this view, the victory of Sir John Stuart in the Plafns of Maida wa « of the very first consequence to our unliury character, and served to impress upon thc minds of our French foes what they had to expect fnujj the bayonet when directed and pushed forward by British troops. The official copics of the Papers on the late Negociatioii. between France and England, as published by the British Court, were on Monday presented to both Houses of Parliament. In many respects they are totally different from the garbled arid imperfect documents lately given through the medium of the Aloniteur. The l'cench have not only omitted whole passages, but whole papers, to lerve their abominable purposes.— In these pdpers, liime of the great points in dispute have been clearly and decidedly ascertained ' and settled. Mr. f Ws letters have established, beyond all doubt or possibility of suspicion, that the first ovst tares for peace were made by France. Com- bined with the numerous notes of Lord Yarmouth, they also prove with equal certainty, that the f* possidetis was the basis of the negOciation mu- tually agreed upon, and from which the English Government ivas determined never to depart; while in the steady arid persevering conduct of the Earl of Lauderdale, after the French Ncgociator had sought to fly from the basis, may be traced a most laudable and successful desire to fix the failure of the negociation upon the craft and trea- chery of the enemy. In fact, nothing can be iMre evident, than that the proposition for peace, on the part of Fiance, was a mere piece of political Jitiesse, mid that peace, in the spirit of peace, never entered into the heart or mind of Bonaparte.— In the letters and conversation of the French Mi- nisters, every line is marked- with prevarication and duplicity.— Thc language of Mr. Fox, on the contrary, displays a dignity, a simplicity, and candour, worthy of his great name, and the English Wuuter and constitution. perated the villains; one of the fellows presented a pistol at Mr. Spencer, which luckily missed fire; however, not likely to succccd in obtaining a greater booty, they effected their escape, anil have not since been heard of. Caution to Drivers of Coaches — Monday night the 15th instant, the driver of the mail- coach from Bristol to Birmingham unfortunately fell from the box as the coach was descending a hill, near Thorubury, and was killed on the spot. The horses, not feeling the reins, set off full speed, but, happily, the guard, after much exertion, and at the peril of his life, was enabled to stop thmn before they had proceeded i'ar on the road, by which means, the lives of the passengers were preserved. It is stated, that the coachman was intoxicated; we trust, therefore, this accident will prove a serious caution to drivers of carriages, and prevent them from wantonly risking their own lives, and the lives of their passengers, by the effects of in- temperance. ~\\ T ANTED immediately, A steady active ' ' YOUTH, of a respectable Family, as an APPRENTICE to a PRINTER, BOOKSELLER, STATIONER, and BINDER.

In a short time one of waiters returned, when he found Mr. L. abusing his master, and threatening to shoot him. Mr. L. attacked the waiter with very violent language, and said he would shoot him also; and, as he was leaving the room, snapped- a pistol at him, but. providentally it did not go off. The waiter informed Mr. Farley, another of the proprietors, of the perilous situation of Mr. Peacock, aud what had happened. At this moment the Lord- Mayor en- tered the tavern; Mr. Farley communicated the circumstance to his lordship, who immediately sent off to Mr. Nalder, one « f the City Marshals. While the messenger was gone, Mr. Peacock took an opportunity to rush out of the room; but as he was leaving it, Mr. Ludlam discharged a pistol at him, and immediately jumped out of the window, and into his carriage that was waiting, and shut the door of the carriage with such force as to break the glass. The coachman drove off with great speed down Bishopsgate- street, pursued by a num- ber of people. The pistol that was discharged at Mr. Peacock, proved to be loaded with several balls, all of which providentally missed him. They were lodged a little above the door of the room. The pistol that was attempted to be discharged at the waiter was found near Mr. L.' s chair, and proved to be loaded with three bullets. It is added, that although Mr. Ludlam was closely pursued, he is not yet. taken. It appears that this irritable and insane Gentleman took offence at Mr. Peacock for not sending him some money from the bar. Mr. Ludlam punished him as nurses sometimes do naughty children, by ordering him to stand in the corner with his hands behind his back, threatening every moment to shoot him if he changed his posi- tion. He also occasionally threw boats, full of melted butter and gravy at him; made him drink four or five glasses of Madeira by way of periance, and afterwards irrigated his clothes with the re- mainder of the bottle. A bottle of claret and another of port, were employed in the same way. After Mr. Ludlam left the London tavern, Mr. Noble arrived in Welbeck- street before the City Marshal, and apprised the family of the strange events of the day, and the means taken to ap- prehend the author of then). The return home of the carriage, in the night, was strictly watched for. About two o'clock in the morning, Mrs. Ludlam and Dr. Heaviside ( who was once in danger of losing his life by Mr. Ludlam firing at him as he entered a room), set off together in a coach to Tenterden- street; afterw ards they took post- horses, and w ere supposed to take the Uxbridge road, iu pursuit of the unfortunate maniac.

RYAIER's CARDIAC AND NERVOUS TINCTURE. nnHE following, from a married Lady of Dis- I- unction, is a further Proof of thc Efficacy of the above Medicine in alarming Cases of Spasm :— To Mr. RYMER, Surgeon, Reigate, Surrey. SIR,— Last October I was taken with an unpleasant Sensation in my Head, attended with a Degree of Drowsiness unusual to me. The Medical Gentleman who attends us, bled me moderately, arid applied a Blister to my Back, which relieved my Head; but soon after I was seized wjth an alarming Spasm on my Chest, with invariably a Pain down my left Arm, and whicn would only give Way to some very warm Medicine, or a little strong Brandy and Water: This, by occasioning an Eructation imnakliafely, removed it for some Hours; but at length it recurred period- ically, " and attacked me at Five in the Morning. Eleven in the Forenoon, and Six or Seven in the Evening, and sometimes oftener. Pile Physician having strong Reasons to suspect my Case to be angina pectoris, his Prescrii tions were principally Opium, combined with warm nervous Medicines ; but the momentary Benefit derived from them was eounterbalanced by the Effects produced by their costive Quality. Carminatives, ice. were also prescribed, but they nftcrded only a transcient Relief. Being very nervous, hysterical, and dispirited, a Friend recotr. merried your Tincture, which 1 am happy to say in a few Weeks, entirely removed the Complaints, without the least Return for more than a Month. I perhaps acted unwisely as to the- Medicine, by discontinuing it too abruptly, as the Spasms returned.— After some time I again ad- verted to your Medicine, mixing the proper Quantity in Camomile Tea, and have found it equally efficacious as at first. Its effects are, warming thc Region of mv Breast, expelling the Wind, and acting as a gentle Aperient. I have taken one Pint ar. d five Half Pints of your inestimable Tincture, which 1 purchased at Messrs. Hazard and Binns's, of this City. From the dread I feel of the recurrence of the Spasms, 1 shall To Timber- Merchants, Navy- Contractors, Builders, a/ id others.

LONDON, December ' 26. BY the American Papers, ( which have been received to the 2;' ld ult.) it appears that the dispute between Spain and the United States, re- from tkc district upon which they had encroached, and it was occupied, without resistance, by a de- tachment of the American army. The question of right, however, is as far from being d- cided as ever. It appears that Colonel Burr, the Vice President of the United States, has incurred the suspicion of treason, in consequence of which an order for his apprehension has been issued. We can scarcely conceive, that a person of his acknowledged ta- lents could be guilty of the very foolish and cri- minal designs with which lie is charged. Although it is highly probable the American, Union will fall to pieces," sooner or later, we do not think the time for abruptly breaking it up is yet- arrived. Thursday arrived three Gottenburgh Mails, from which, we learn that no events of any consequence have taken place on the Continent, " luce tiie last advices. It appears that the French troops are marching with great expedition towards Poland; but there is 110 intelligence of any importance from that quarter. It is, indeed, stated, that various reports had reached Gottenburgh, of a severe check, which the French had received from the Russians and Prussians; and we are inclined to j lay considerable stress upon so many concurring testimonies; but the authority is not vet of that nature 011 which we can rest our full belief. It appears that the French troops had left Ham- burgh, and a Deputation " of the leading, people had° gone to Barlin to remonstrate with Napoleon, but he had left the place before they arrived. A Deputation from Lubcck had been very graciously received. The restrictions 011 their commerce, however, will not be removed, till experience has convinced Bonaparte, that they can injure very little the British trade. and peach- house. Other gentlemen in the neigh- bourhood sustained similar losses. The skirts of the storm reached Newcastle, but without sufficient violence to cause damage. It was very severe to the westward. The flag- staff upon the new quay at Whitehaven was shattered by the lightning, and several panes of the light- house were broken. In Liverpool, between twelve and one o'clock, the wind was so tremendous, as to blow down a new- built house in. Nile- street, unroof several houses, and upset a boat on the river, in which there were three Inen returning from a vessel lying at the rock, who were all drowned. Murder vf Mr. Steele.— On Monday Ilolloway, Ilaggutv. and., the evidence Uantield, were re- conduced to the Public Ollice in Worship- street. The same chain of circumstances, as related be- fore, were substantiated, and some new tacts came out. llamicld was confronted with the other two prisoners, and they neither - acknowledged their 1 guilt nor denied the fact. The prisoners were all remanded Fur re- examination 011 Monday next. During the several examinations of the men, charged with hav ing committed this murder, there has not been the slightest ' corroboration of the testimony given by Htpifipld, the accomplice, liotr withstanding the exGrtions that have been made.

Trotting Match.— A trotting match took place ontheBagshot road, 011 Wednesday, between a bay mare, the property of a Captain Ranger, and a black horse belonging to Mr. Rav, of Newingtun. The distance was nine miles to and fro, and bets 5 and 6 to 1 on the horse. The marc made play at starting, and broke her pace, and was turned round four times in the first mile. The horse gained an advantage, and headed her above 100 . yards for about three miles, when he broke from the road, and the animals again were together neck and neck, with very little variation, until within the last mile, when the horse, which carried feather- weight, broke again from the road, and lost the race by about 70 yards. The mare was turned round eight times, and the horse three. The distance was performed by the winner in 34 minutes and 40 seconds.

Society for protecting Persons and Property against Thieves an4 Robbers. WHEREAS on Saturday Night, or early on Sunday Morning last, some Person or Persons entered a Ground in the Parish of MIBDLETON- J CHENEY, in the County of Northampton, in the] Occupation of Mr. JOHN WILLIAMS, of THENFORD \ ( one of the Members of this Society), and STOLE THEREOUT, TWO COLTS, Of the following Descriptions: — A BLACK GELDING, of the Cart Kind, rising three Years old, plain in the Head, with a large Star in the Forehead, low in the Back, white hind Heels, and a small Spot of White on one of the fore Feet yESTERDAY three Gottenburgh Mail? arrived. insist 011 the defeat of a French army of 60,000 men nearPosen. This report^ which was credited at Elsineur 011 the 5th inst. comes however, we regret to say, without any additional circumstance to warrant its authenticity. The French, it is probable, were greatly harassed 011 their march ; but it is evident that if they had experienced such a disaster as those letters would intimate, they could not have advanced from Posen to Warsaw. Great bodies of French troops are certainly marching from all quarters to Poland, and Bona- parte has himself quitted Berlin with all his staff, for that destination. The Russians also have un- doubtedly arrived in that country in very great force, and a violent struggle must speedily ensue, unless the winter puts a stop to all operations. The same letters say, that the Danish Government has, on the requisition of the Usurper, shut the ports of Ilusum and Tonaingen, against the English. This we can scarcely credit, as letters of a later date than those from Elsineur have been received from Husttm. Ten thousand Russians from Corfu have landed at Macarsa, in Dalmatia, and so closely blockaded General Lauriston's force of 5000 men in Ragusa, that all the communications being cut off, it is supposed he will be compelled to surrender. Some of our ships have bombarded Venice for two days, in consequence of the Viceroy of Italy having fitted out some armed vessels to cruize against our trade. The English troops have also taken possession of the batteries in Istria, which the French have abandoned. A ship arrived from Elsineur, we understand, has brought a German Paper, that contains ac- counts from Berlin to the date of Dceemher 8th, by which it appears, that the French had evacuated Posen, leaving 110 other force than a small Polish garrison, under the command of General Dom- browski.—- The left wing of the Grand Army had advanced in force towards Dantzic, of which city it was reported a vigorous siege was immediately about to commence, and the enemv flattered them- selves that a speedy surrender would be the con sequence, as the garrison was represented as short of provisions, and extremely disaffected A report prevailed in the City yesterday, that, the Spanish Government had ceded to the French the Island of Cuba. Upon what authority it rests, or whether it be ill or well founded, we have not been able to ascertain. Of this, however, we are convinced, that if Bonaparte takes it in his head to require that, or any other settlement, from Spain, the Cabinet of Madrid will not venture to refuse compliance. We cannot forget how easily Louisiana was ceded, when the French influence A BROWN FILLY, of the Cart Kind, rising _ three Years old, straight in the Back, white hind Iwas not ne3r st) predominant as it now is.

" pOUR MILLIONS of Property is insured at 3 about One- fourth of the usual Expencc. Nine Year,' experience by this Socictv has proved that the Premium charged by all the Insurance Companies is Two Shillings in Three more than the Losses amount to, which Surplus in this Office is returned, whereby One Hundred Pounds is here insured for less than One Shilling, which would cost Three in any other Office. A Saving so considerable must command the Attention of the Public, and accounts for the rapid Increase of the Society, which now consists of above six thousand Members; and its Funds are so fast increasing as to' leave no Doubt but it will continue henceforward to alfbrd as much Advantage to every Insurer as it has hitherto done. rr Printed Proposals, with a List of the Trustees Directors, may be had, on Application to the following Agents:— Mr. ABEL, Northampton, who is likewise Agent for Wellingborough ( in Lieu of Mr. Spoire), with the Assistance of Mr. STANTON, Grocer.

The following Case has also occurred in this Neigh- bourhood :— James Gybson was inoculated at ten Years of Age; Halt a Year' afterwards he was seized with Pain in both Legs, supposed for some Time to be Rheumatism, or growing Pains, but it settled finally in one Leg, which swelled, and rendered him inca- pable of walking. He had in four Years, eleven or twelve Ulcers, and thirteen Pieces of Bone were taken out. His Health was impaired, and he was constantly cariied about. A charitable Lady saw him in this State, and asked his Mother if she would object to bis trying SPILSBURY'S PATENT ANTISCORBUTIC DROPS, as she had seen their Efficacy in several In- stances. On her assenting, she- supplied him with thi- m, and allowed him Meat and such Nourishment as. is recommended with them. He took fifteen Bot- tle.;, which entirely cured him. It is now three Years since, ajid he has had no Return of his Com- plaint, but is grown tall, healthy, and works con- stantly as a Bricklayer. The Bearer is also recommended as a deserving Ob- ject for your excellent Institution, being a Servant, w ithout Parents. She has been put to much Expence, and can find no . Relief. She lives thirty- two Miles from London, and it has been thought best to send her to Town that vou may see her. The genuine Medicin..-, in Bottles of 5s. 6d. 10s. and =£. 1 2s.

Travellers, who are too often obliged to drink all Kinds of Liquors, as well as Sea- faring People, should never be unprovided with them, as by fre- quently taking one or two of them, they arekept from Costiveness, Scurvies, Fevers, and most malignant Distempers. The Scots Pills prepared by Dicey & Co. retain their Virtue for any Length of Time, and in all Cli mates; and from the Peculiarity of the Composition, they never run together ; an Advantage no other Scots Pills possess: And therefore, for Exportation, or the Use of Gentlemen in the Maritime Line, they have a manifest Superiority. ( iCJ* Spurious Sorts, of a very inferior Quality, are sold in almost every Town ; be careful therefore to ask particularly for DICEY'S Anderson's Scots Pills, and to observe, that the Words Dicey £?

OREIIOUND is an Herb which has ever been esteemed, by the most able Physicians, for its salubrious Qualities in the Cure of Coughs, Colds, Asthmas, and all pulmonary Complaints. As the usual Method of using it was attended with considerable Inconvenience, the Proprietor of this Medicine was induced to offer the Public an elegant Preparation from that universal and well- known Herb, and the distinguished Approbation it has re- ceived from an impartial and generous Public, is a sufficient Testimony of its superior Virtue over every other Medicine; and withall so pleasant, that it is preferable to common White Wine ; so innocent, that it may be given to an Infant newly born ; so effi- cacious, that Diseases, as it were, fly before its in- estimable Power; in all Cases, whether recent and slight, or of long- standing and inveterate, its Effects are truly astonishing, and almost incredible; in no one Instance has it ever tailed to produce immediate Relief; and if a Cure be, within the Reach of Medicine, this Balsam will most certainly elfcl it.

In this State I was recom- mended to try your CORDI A L BALM of G ILE AD ; but having an Objection to public Medicine, I resisted the Idea for some Time. The Weakness, however, gaining on my Constitution, as scarcely any Sustenance remained on my Stomach, I determined to give your Cordial Balm of Gilead a fair Trial, and immediately sent for some lo Mr. Svvinney's, Printer, in this Town, and the Consequences hsve fully justified the Report I had of your Medicine; for ray Spirits were soon recruited, and my Appetite and Digestion, after eighteen Months wasting and excruciating Illness, are now happily restored.— As this singular Case may be the Means of inducing others, under similar Com- plaints, to use the same Remedy, you have full Consent to make it public; and remain, Sir, with great Respect, your very obedient Servant, EDWARD FOX, Livery- Street, Harper's- Hill.

For Rheumatisms, Sprains, Chilblains, Dr. STEERS's OPODELDOC. THIS Medicine, from its extraordinary Efficacy, is justly entitled to the Reputation it has so long acquired above every o. ther Preparation of the Kind. By its warm, penetrating, and attenuating Qualities, it is found to be the most powerful Application in Rheumatisms, Spasms, and Palsies; as also in Cramps, Bruises, Sprains, Burns, Scalds, fresh Cuts, and the Sting of venomous Insects. It is particularly recom- mended in Contusions, occasioned by Gun- shot Wounds, and to refresh the Legs and Feet after long Exercise in walking. It speedily removes Chilblains, and if used in Time, will prevent them from breaking, but fer this Purpose it should be dissolved and applied warm. Sold only by F.

Mr. EDGE, NORTHAMPTON, has just received a large Supply of ROBBERDS's BALSAMIC ELIXIR, or COUGH- DROPS, For Coughs, Colds, Asthma, and Consumption. flMIF. SEjustly- celebrated Drops, by their happy .8 and immediate Effect in removing the most ob- stinate Cough or Catarrh, and all Tendency to Con- sumption, render them a valuable Family Medicine. And when we consider the Variableness of our Climate, which constantly induces us to catch Cold, and, that from this taking Cold, originates a Multitude of Dis- eases, as Asthma, Pain in the Chest, offensive Breath, Inflammation of the Lungs, and Consumption, with a long Train of Evils, no Head of a Family should lay down without a small Supply, at least, of this almost instantaneous Remedy. Many thousand Persons can testify the happy Effects they have received from it, when every other Medical Assistance had failed. A CAUTION.— Observe the Name of R. BUTLER, No. 4, Cheapside, is engraved on a black Stamp, which is affixed to each Bottle; all others are Coun- terfeits.

For a certain Disorder and all Scorbutic Complaints. DR. FREEMAN'S GUTl'A SALUTARIS is by far the most safe and effectual Remedy ever yet discovered for the Cure of that dangerous Disease. Persons unhappily afflicted with a certain Complaint in all its Stages, and under its various Appearances, wili find a secure and present Relief by taking these most invaluable Drops; which, for their Excellency during thirty Years' Practice in the most populous Part of London, viz. Hatton- Garden, have been termed Gutta Salutaris. The Secrecy with which most Persons so afflicted find it needful to conceal their Sufferings, may be safely employed while using these Drops; since they render Confinement unnecessary, as well as all mer- curial Preparations, or any surgical Operation whatever. By Appointment of Dr. Freeman they are sold by R. Sutler, No. 4, Cheapside, Corner of Paternoster- Row ; Edge, Northampton; and by most Venders of Medicines; in Bottles, at 2s. 9d. each, with ample Directions. V:< yages and Travels round the World.

By CAVENDISH PELHAM, Esq. The Whple illustrated and embellished with appro- priate Maps, Picturesque Scenes, Striking Re- pre- sentations of the Persons, Customs, Ceremonies, & c. of the respective Inhabitants, and whatever may lend to elucidate and elecorate a Performance so interesting, essential, and universal; consisting of upwards of one hundred and thirty Engravings, by the first Artists, among whom are Charles Warren, Milton, Landseer, Filler, Watts, Anker, Smith, Ambrose Warren, Hawkins, Taylor, Poole, Sparrow, Cook, See. & c. — The Maps and Charts by the celebrated Mr. J. Russell. The Work shall be completed in one hundred and thirty Numbers, making two handsome Volumes, in Quarto, and a Promissory Note given with the first Number, to deliver the Overplus gratis should it exceed that Quantity.— Indexes and a List of Sub- scribers will be given. To expatiate on the Utility or Entertainment of a Work which has immense Regions for its Object, ajiel all animated Nature lor its Speculation, would be manifestly unnecessary. A judicious Collection of modern Voyages and Travels presents the Earth to our astonished Eyes, anddisplays the Wonders o. t the Deep. All the Inhabitants of the various intermediate Regions, from the Torrid to the Frigid Zone, pass in Review before us, and we uis- tinctly behold them in their genuine Characters of Civilization, savage Ignorance, Superstition, and Ferocity, It exhibits to our View the vegetative Produce of the most distant Climes, and enumerates the sanative and commercial Uses of the innumerable Plants which decorate the fertile Bosom of the Plain, or venerably crown the aspiring Mountains. In this ' Work, the Essence of numerous Voyages and Travels will be carefully incorporated with such valuable Materials, as we have assiduously procured from other unquestionable Authorities. Tiie almost infinite Variety of Publications, from which we have gathered much of our Information, have ail been recently ushered into the World ; and the Reader neeJ not be informed, that a Collection of Voyages and I ravels is rendered the more interesting and valuable when its Kourcesare from modern Inform, rion. C. mdour must readily admit, that the nearer su? h Information ap- proaches the pre- ent Period, so much the nearer Per- fection will our Collection arrive than any similar Productions which h;. ve preceded it. A larger and very ELEGANT EDITION will be printed on fine VellLm Wove Royal Paper, which will be Hot- pressed, with the Advantage of Ptoof Impressions of the Engravings, besides appropriate Vignette Title Pages to each Volume.— The Price ot this Edition will be One Shilling each Number. Besides the Quality of the Paper, and the superior Impressions of the Engravings, the Maps, Charts, See. of this Edition, will be highly coloured, and the Whole will form the most elegant, beautiful, and complete Collection of VOYAGES AND TRAVELS Ever submitted to the Public. The first twenty- five . Numbers being already pub- lished, may be had together or separate, and will form a complete Specimen of the Excellence of the whole Work, the Proprietor being determined there shall be no Deviation in Respect to Paper, Printing, or En- gravings, between the first and last Numbers. Indeed, the Accumulation of upwards of THREE THOUSAND Subscribers, in the short Space of six Months, is . lie most flattering Testimony of Public Approbation; and the Proprietoreloubts not, by continuing the same unrivalled Degree of Excellence, that in the same Space of Time an equal Number of new Subscribers will be added to the Work.
