LONDON, Oct 4. OUR readers are apprised that the naval Com mander ofF Jersey had received official notice of'a meditated attempt on that island. A similar hotrficatioii has been Blade . to the Governor of Guernsey, as appears by the following extract from a letter, dated Guernsey, Oct. 1,-— , " We are kept on the alert in » > nserpietvce of reports of armaments on the opposite coast. At Cherburg the French have 30,000 men, two ship? of the line-, a few frigates, besides gun- boats and praams. General Doyle deceived dispatches from Government yesterday, apprising him of this; and directing hint to be oft iiis guard. He wishes to impress a belief that the eneriiy will really attack •. is; but of this T caritiot persuade myself. Jersey, 1 firmly believe, is in danger of an attempt, beitiij nearer to the coast, and the landing th'eie most practicable." In consequence of the JtbfiVe preparations on the enemy's coast. lt is expected that orders will be immediately issued to the Volunteer corps to hold themselves ih readiness td assemble undel' arms, at an hour's notice. The accounts said to have lieeri brought from India by the Fox frigate, relative to the loss if the Dover, together * ith nearly the whole of her crew, have natuiallv excited considerable uneasi, ness in the minds ° f .' he relatives and friend? of thole on board. Fur tbrfr satisfaction, however, toe are enabled to state, that although it. is true the Dover was stranded, It is not known' that any pa11 iit he/ ci, ew werfcTlysl. . The, City of London, ' winch.' was uiider convoy of ( ha Fox, fell In with i tic Indian sDoit after leading the Sandheads; and from tjiat ship she le<( i nt, that op passing Madras Roads,.' tlie Indian siw the Dover, and sonife mer- chant vessels, on shore; but with respect to ( tie fete of their crews, she knew nothing: and this in- formati(? n_,,. a. Hd no fauje, was CoHiinunfcated to the Fox. A late decree of the Regency at Lisbon, prohi- biting the importation . of American spirits into Portugal, is likely to prove beneficial to the agri- cultural interests of this country., by enlarging liie consumption of Irish spirits in fliaI market, and it has already caused the shipment of nearly 2,000 puncheons within the last fortnight from' Dublin, Cork, and Belfasst.—( Limerick Paper.) We regret to state that a farther advance has taken place in the price of Bread. The Lord Mayor, after inspecting the returns, ordered a rise of'hne penny per peck. Thus, whether the reason he fair or foul, bread rises And yet it is not onW in England that the harvest has been good— Providence bas been also kind to every other part of the world The following ^ tftract frobV the New York Papers, received yesterday, is an ac- count of its state there: " HARVEST.- We learn from all parts of this and the adjacent counties, that the crops of the season arc abundant and very good. It was feared that Wheat woukl sustain injury from the Idle wet weather, but we believe it has been trifling.— Hay is very extraordinary ; and although rather light, and unfavourable veather far making it, is pretty good.—( Froutf all parts of the State, our accounts convey the same highly gratifying intelligence— the farmer's most sanguine hopes have been more than reathe d— the crops of grain are universally abundant and of excellent quality— arid have ail been well and safely harvested."- t( Ontario Repo- sitory.) ROMAN ANTIQUITIES.— On Monday se'nnight, while the workmen were opening some ruins in the venerable mansion of John Floyd, esq. a great saltpetre merchant, ' situate near Redburn, they dis- covered below the foundation of an old wall a lea- den box, measuring three feet in length, by two feet and a half in breadth, in perfect condition, aud strongly secured by antique kind of padlock, which was not forced . but with great difficulty. When opened it contained seventy- two copper medals, each weighing three ounces and one quar- ter, all iu a high state'rtf preservation. The de- vices on them, which are throughout the same, are, on one side the figure of a dying warrior, sup- ported in the arms < pf two men, in complete ar- mour, and several others standing weeping round Io i he back- ground a battle raging, the motto of " Dulce et decorum est pro patria mori." sur- rounding the whole. On the reverse a Roman triumph, with i> o less than 115 figures distinctly visible..^ Along with the medals were four beauti- ful lamps, made of a" composition chiefly silver; two small daggers, most Curiously wrought; five hu- man figure in sold' gold,- supposed to represent the PENATES, or houshold gods of the ancients. There was also a wooden box, contained in the caden, 14 inches in length, and apparently sn- Jid, which, when exposed to air, crumbled into dust. A mutilated scroll was discoverd, but too much disfigured by time for any of its contents to he. legible, save a few detached sentences, which re of an anatory description Mr. Floyd has af- eady refused one thousand guineas for the col- ection. Molineux arrived io a baronche on Thursday evening, at Richmond's, St. Martin's- street, Lei- cester- square. An immense crowd surrounded the house as soon as his arrival became public. It is said that Capt. Barclay won lo. oool. on the battle between Cribb and Molineux. Cribb,. the champion, from the' repealed solici- tations of his friends, has entered into a bond of l. OOOl. penalty, not to fight again. . An inquest was held at Fishtoft, Lincolnshire, on Thursday the 19th bit. by J. W- Davis, gent. Co- ronor, on the body of Richard Hall, 24 years of age, who came by, bis death in an extiaordinai v way., The. deceased was. a servant in husbandry to Mr. North, farmer, of Fishtoft, and had a team of horses under his charge on the Tuesday before his death, in a close near his master's house. Bein| r loosed from work, the horses took fright at some- thing; and setting, off furiously out of the close, the hook at the end of oneof the gear- chains caught the shoe on one of the young man's feet, and he was, in consequence, dragged by the unruly horses, a distance of 4O0 yards, until he was cut and bruiz- ed beyond the hope of recovery. He lingered iii fextreme misery for two days, and tlien died. Verdict, Accidental Death. , An instance of savage barbarity occurred a few days since ori the Gloucester road, near Chepstow; a drover unmercifully beat, and finally killed an ox, because he was so wearied as to be tillable to keep pace with the other cattle. , The late fire in St. Giles's was attended with the following most- remarkable and providential pre- servation of the lives of a mother and four children, who resided in the upper part of the house i— The flames were raging ifpwards to her apastments, arid thfere was little or rib chance of escaping; but being encouraged by the people in the street, who were prepared \ « hh feds* she tlirew out three of her chil- dren, one at a time, who were all_ safely caught,' without receiving a'lfy ifijurv; the yourig'est she tied to her back, and jumped ptit, a id extraordi- nary to relate, they were also caught withtfut re- ceivine any injury. On Saturday morning Davis and Phillips, who were convicted at the late Middlesex Sessions,, in the neighbourhood of Brompton and Knightsbridge, for keeping a Little- go, or private Lottery, in those neighbourhoods. Underwent the sentence of being flogged at the carts tail on the Brompton- road. ...••, ,.„ Storrington And Linfield Breweries. , ^ l^ H E Public arelrespectfully infora. ied that the A Brewing Businesses at the above- mentioned places with tlie additional Business of Spirit Merchants, will} in future, be carried on by John Hughes, Francis Ben- nett, and Richard Challin, and beg a ' Continuance of their Friend's aud the Public's future f. ivon. r'v which they will study, to merit by au unremitted attention to their respective businesses.

The Comet approached nearest the sun on the I2th of' September ai— ten o'clock in the c'venitk, it was then distartt, 30 millions, of leagues from the Sun, taHdiiSi4 from the earth.

The body of the Comet appears to be separated from the luminous mutter whicti surrounds it in lie Shape of a parabola. This phenomenon, which has not been peiceiv. ed in other Comets has been bice' taitied by the observations of all tbe Astrono- mers in Paris, and without doubt will not escape the • notice of- ather Astronomers. It does not fol, low, however, that the body of the Comet is Wholly separated from the luminous appearance, as the space'that seems empty may be filled up by particles less luminous than the rest. 1 . We some months. back announced the melan- choly fate of Mr. Bland, of Newark, who was acci- dentally poisoned by Partaking of some port wine at one of the inns in that town. We have now the painful task of recording additional calamities that jutve befallen this unhipjiy family. Abi ut a month ago, Mrs. Bland, the unfortunate widow, lost a fine boy in the Trent; and it may will be supposed how much this event would add to her grief for the rndjt melancholy fate of her husband. All, howei- er, is not yet told; a few days ago her aged mother, overcome bv affliction at these sad events, abandoned herself to despair, and drowned herself in the river which had been the death of her grand- son!

[ Front an American Paper.] '' May it plcsse the Honorable Bench, lo indulge me 111 a few words: 1 am a poor unhappy woman, who have 110 money to fee lawyers to plead for me, being hard pu t to it to get a tolerable living— il shall not trouble your honours with a long speech, for I have not the pre- sumption to expect that you iriny by any means, be prevailed upon to deviate in y. ouc seutcnce from the law in my favour.—< AJI I humbly hope is, that your honours would charitably move the governor's goodness in my behalf, that my tine may he remitted. This is the filiii time, Gentleman, I have been dragged before your court on the same account; twice 1 have paid heavy fines, and twice have been brought op to public punishment, for want of money to pay those fines. This may have been agreeable to tbe laws, and I dont dispute it ; but since laws'are sometimes • unreasonable in themselves, and ate therefore repealed, and others bear too hard up 011 llie subject lu particular circumstances, and there- fore there is left a " power sontewhat to dispense with the execution of them: I take the liberty to say, that I think this law, by which 1 am punished, is both unrea- sonable iu itself, and particularly severe with regard to me, who have always lived au inoffensive life in the neighbourhood where 1 was bom, and defy my enemies, ( if 1 have any) to say Lever wronged man, woman, or child. Abstracted from . the law, 1 cannot perceive, may it please your honours what the nature of my offence is. I have brought ftv'e children into . the world at - the risk of my life, and have maintained them well by my own industry, without burtheniug the township, and should have done better, if it hud not been for the heavy charges and fines 1 have paid. Can it be a crime ( in the nature of things 1 mean) to add to the number of useful citi- zens in a new country that really wants people ? I own il, I should think it rather a praiseworthy than a punish- able action. I have debauched no otherwoman's husband, enticed any youth. These things 1 never was charged with, nor has any one the least cause of complaint against me, unless, perhaps, the ministers of justice, because I have had children without being married, by which tliey have missed a wedding fee ! But can even this he a fault of mine i I appeal to your honours. You are pleased, to allow 1 dont want sense, but I should be stupid to the last degree, not to prefer the honourable slate of wedlock, to the conditioiK. 1 have lived in. 1 always was, and still am, willing to enter into it, and doubt. not my behaving well in it, having all the indus- try, frugality, fertility, skill and economy, appertain- ing to a good wife's character. 1 defy any person to say 1 over refused au offer of that sort. O11 the contra- ry, .1 readily consented to lire on. lv proposal of marri- age that iviis ever made to me, which was when I was a virgiir belt too easily confiding iu the sincerity of tbe person that made it, 1 unhappily lost MY honour by trusting to ins.- That very person you all know, he is- now become a magistrate of this country, and 1 had hopes, that he would have appeared this day 011 the bench, ' and have endeavoured to moderate the court in my favatir; then' ! should have scorned to have mention- ed it, but i must ABw complain of it as unjust and un- equal, Mhat- my betrayer aud undoer, the first cause of ajl my faults and miscarriages ( if they niu » t he deemed such) should be advanced to honour aud power 111 the government, thatf""*' he « aiiiy misfortunes with stripes and infamy, « . l s^ ajl be-' tiiW tisi likely, that wtfre theVe no act ot^ assembly, in th « .<- Vjse, the precepts of religion are x'lirtatpd by CB. yj transgressionsf, Jf mine then be a re- ligious punishment, y « u have already excluded me from the comforts of your church communion, is not thai sufficient?• You' bi'lievc I have offended heaven, and must suffer eternal lire, will not that be sufficient? What need'Is I " here then for yoiir additional fines and whip- pings? But how can it be believed that heaven is angry at my having children, when to the little done by mc toward it, GOD has becu pleased to add his divine skill and admirable workmanship 111 the formation of their bodies, and crowned it by furnishing them with rational and immortal souls.— Forgive me, Gentlemen, if I talk a little extravigantly, on these matters— 1 am no divine, but if you, gentlemen, must make laws, do not lurn national and usefal actions into crimes, by your pro- hibitions. Bnt tube i'rito your wise consideration the great and growing number of BACHELORS in this country, many of whom from the mean fear of the' expeuces of a family, have never sincerely and honourably courted a woman in their lives, mid by their milliner of living leave unproduccd ( wh+ ch is little better than murder) hundred of their posterity to the thousandth genera- tion,— is not this a greater offence against the public good Jhau mine ? Compel them then by law, either io marriage, or to pay double the line of fornication every year. What must poor young woman do, whom cus- tom has forbid to solicit men, and who cannot force themselves on husbands, when the laws take no care to provide them ally, aud yet severely punish them if they do their duty without them ; The duly of the first and great command of nature, and of nature's GOD is " INCREASE AND MULTIPLY" aduty, from the stea- dy performance, of wh. cli, nothing has beeuable to deter inc.; but for its sake 1 have hazarded tbe loss of public esteem, and hawe frequently endured public disgrace and punishment, aud therefore ought in my bumble opinion, instead of u whipping, t( j have astatue erected to my memory."

Tuesday we were visited by a severe storm of thunder and lightening accompanied hy heavy rain. The lightening set fire. to a . large barn, at Al- ciston, nearly filled with oats in the straw, belong- ing to Mr. Ridge, which,' in i short time, it wholly consumed, together with a stack of hay, contain- ing about twelve tons, and an ox- stall, to which tho flames communicated, although great exertions were used to stop their progress. The oats con- sumed are calculated at 350 quarters, and the whole loss is estimated at 12001. A woman belonging to Firle, who wss attend- ing a sale at Alciston, felt the influence of the lightening to a degree tliat occasioned Iter to faint, and complained ol its effects for. several days after- wards,' bijt without receiving any apparent, injury. A few, days since, as a young lad, servant to a farmer, at Brenchley, in Kent, was conveying some hop- poles to bis master's garden, oti. horseback, the east reared, and fell with him backward* into a ditch, where, in about half an hour afterwards, they were both found drowned Last Thursday evening," Mr. Cook, grocer, of Ihe Cliffe, discovered tliat the till in h! i shop had been robbed of Bank notes, amounting to arid some papers, which be could swear to, arid which he soon afterwards traced to the possession of Mi- chael Ury, a private of the 42d Regiment, who was in consequence taken into custody, and the next day examined before a Magistrate, who committed him to our House of Correction for further exami- nation. Yesterday, a little decrepit female, who resides in St. John's workhouse, in this town, and who had long walked on crutches, got' out of her bed about midnight, and without her props, or any other assistance, strolled to a considerable distance from tier home, when she was luckily met by a poor man, and led back, to the workhouse. She assigns no reason for her extraordinary exertion nor can her suddenly restored ability of walking beany way accounted for, by those about her. The remains of Mr. Grigg, whose unfortunate death' wfe' stated' in our last, were on Tuesday even-, ing interred in. the church- yard of St. Ann. The deceased's head was dissected prior to the assembling of the coroner's jury On Sunday se'nnight, and the result will, no doubt, be better understood on the day of trial, than it appears to be at present. The coroner, at the close of his inquest, issued a warrant against the person charged with man slaughter, but he has not, in consequence, been apprehended I SPORTING, The Pheasants, as we have before stated, are, generally speaking, exceedingly nu- merous; and notwithstanding the heavy and re- iterated showers, since the commencement of Oc- tober, have rendered their chief resorts almost impenetrable to man, a great many of those beau- tiful birds have been sent to grace the spits and tables of the luxurious, both in town and country. One day last week, as Mr. W. a gentleman in the neighbourhood of this town, was out shooting partridges with a double barrelled gun, and a brace of excellent pointers, his doi; s stood, the covey rose, and he discharged both barrels, bringing down, in a very sportsman- like stile, his bird both with the right and left; this done, and finding his dogs still stationary in the high stuff from which the birds had risen, he reloaded, and on approach- ing the pointers, found, to his great regret, that by his first fire he had not only shot his partridge quite dead, but his two faithful dogs also I This sporting casualty, we understand, was occasioned by the pointers standing on a little eminence, and the birds going off nearly close to the lower ground, immediately in a line with them. A few days since as two men were shooting moor- hens, in a place called the Poole, near Southover, one of them mistook the head of a black spaniel, with which tliev were hunting among the reeds, for their game, and shot the poor animal so badly iii the face,' that one of his eyes cairte out of its socket, and befell down as in the agonies of death; but while the shooters were debating, whether it would not be best to put the wounded dog out of his mi"-' sery by another shot, a bird made its appearance, was killed by one of them, and fell into the water. When the Well- bred dog seemingly, aroused by the report of the gun, got on h s legs, staggered into the Pool, and actually brought out the game, and laid if St thi ' feel of his master!— The spaniel s im: mediately taken home, and is now in a fair way of recovery. ; ; - V\ . - DIED.

The performers, although far from being at home in their respective parts, exerted themselves, and shewed that the MORCEAU only wanted perfection to make it amusing. The first benefit in the present week is that an- nounced by the Misses Dennett, . under the patron- age of the Marchioness of Downshire, and from the distinguished countenance their exertions both public and private have been honoured with, their excellence of character and propriety of conduct, and the list of fashionables, whose names already grace the box- book, their performances will be most numerously attended.

Supplement to LORD SHEFFIELD's Report of the 261h July last, at Lewes, on the present state of the Wool Trade. 12th September, 1 § 11. The same backwardness to purchase, which took place at Lewes, prevailed at the other wool fairs.— At Ross fair, as in most other places, little business was done ; the best Ryeland sold at from £ s. 4Jd to 2s. fijil.— was refused for Anglo- Merino wool, which was sold last year at..' is. and at Cole- ford fair, remarkable for fine wools, the prices from last year were greatly reduced, and some was sold as low as 2s. td. It is the opinion, however, that Wool will rise, as in Gloucestershire and other pans, there are very little fine woollens on hand, and a great demand for tine Cloths at present. The Thetford fair was numerously attended, lit- tle business was done in the room, but there was an evident desire in the buyers to purchase pri- vately, the best wools at from 20d to 2"> d. Some were sold at those' prices, but a rise was expected, and the farmers shewed little disposition to sell at these low rates. At Ashford fair in Kent, ( not long established) there was nothing done in South Down or fine English wools. The demand and value is rising considerably. At Colchester, only 2! d. per lb. was offered for the best samples of Norfolk and South Down wools, and pretty good wools sold at I0d. The wool grow- er seems disposed to take nearly one third less of the prices of late years, and the wool buyer seems highly unreasonable in expecting a greater reduc- tion. ft may be farther remarked, that such is the indiscriminating ignorance of the manufactur- er, that he is now daily buying inferior Spanish wools, by no means equal to fine. English wools, at very superior prices to what he will give for the English, Principal persons concerned in the import of foreign wools,- say, that notwithstanding the im- portation in the half year, ending fifth of July last, has been S", 140,( 5761 bs: scarcely a bag has been received which would three years ago have been esteemed of prime quality, and but compa- ratively a small quantity of superior seconds.— Nevertheless, foreign wools as above observed, when compared with British fine wools, obtain high price-, though they do not yield more than a fair average profit to the importers.

Usual sussession of pasture, and other causes, the fleeces arc gene- rally very much deteriorated in quality.-<- He ac- counts f. ir the importation of wool this . year, by the fact that it has been composed chiefly of the inferior wools which Spain' was accustomed to re- tain for the consumption of her own manufactures-, very few of which have been able to continue at work,— it is acknowledged that formerly the great- er part of these wools would not have found a mar- ket here. ' . The current prices of Spanish Wools have risen, considerably, within the last three weeks, but in comparing these prices with what have been ob- tained i, n the course of the last three or. four years, reference should always he had to. the- circumstan- ces. above stated, as at least' 25 per cent, should be added to them— Thus, for hlstatice. a parcel having the prime Leonesa marks, was sold last week at 8s. 3d. but the fleeces were Very foul, and when brought into the state in which wools' of the same marks used to come, they will have cost the pur-, chaser about I'^ s. 6J". or 12s. and even . then, they will not be equal in quality, ori' account of the commixture of fleeces. very large quantities - of Sorias have, in like manner, been sold as low as at 3d and at - 3s. per lb.

The late speculations and derangements in trade, do not seem to have affected the wool trade in Ireland, nor has it suffered by thfe combinations of the jobbers.

The Farming Society of Ireland reports, that the introduction of the Merino breed irito, that country, has exceeded ttte most sanguine expec- tations of the manufacturers,. and promised amply to repay the expense of the import of Spanish sheep; the avidity of the buyers to. purchase the wool, must account for prices evidently beyond the intrinsic value of unscoured wool. The parcel which sold highest, was shorn from a portion of the flock imported Cork last summer, and was considered equal in fineness to any that Spain could produce. The manufacturers were perfectly satisfied with the manner in which it was made up, though merely river washed upon the sheeps back. In every instance where the soap washing had been used, the appearance of the wool was injured, and it was the general opinion that washing carefully upon the sheep's back in pure river water was the safest, and best method to adopt. The extraordinary advantage resulting from the cross of Merino South Down, appeared not- only in the parcels of wool of that description, but by the high prices at which they sold: exceeding the rate of pure Merino iil many instances. The Farming Society pay a just tribute to the spirited exertions of Dr. Parry, who presented the society with a ram, from which, on the South Down Ewes of Mr. Grierson, the wool of sheep, one year old attained the extraordinary price of 9s. Qd. per pound, unscoured. The report farther says, that the South Down wool, and crosses of South Down, on Wicklow mountain sheep, & c. did not bring the extravagant prices of the last year, but sold in general very well, and would have sold much better, but for the inferiority of many parcels, from having been badly made up, and from the want of judicious selection by some of the breeders. At Rathdrum shew of cattle in Ireland, on the 5th of this month, Mr. Owen Bvrne. obtained the first premium for ewe lambs of the cross of South Down on native Wicklow Mountain, ftnd the wool > vas much approved and bore a high price, being the first cross of South Down, the progeny of which are found to possess all the hardiness of the native breed, but nie- Merino Wools were the fa- vourites, and the general opinion was that a cross from the Merino and South Down, if generally established, would' be productive of a superior growth ( if fine wool. It is said that most of the wool sold was bought up. by English' factors. Prejudice, however, here fn England; keeps down the price of Spanish wool grown in this country, yet the spirited introducers of the Spanish breed, should not be discouraged. The produce of Lord Castlereagh's Merino flock this year averaged Sib. 5oz. per fleece of wool washed on the sheep's back. Some of the ewe taggs, dipt 7lb. 8oz.; it is deemed Worth 8s. per lb. at which price the fleeces on an average of the flock, are worth 43s. each. A very considerably smaller profit would compensate for a deficiency of weight in the car cass. The intelligence of our breeders will soon by crossing, bring the sheep to such form, as we deem more perfect, and it seems proved, that the wool of the Spanish, crossed on Ryeland and South Down, is fully equal to the old breed of Spain. If the constitution of the sheep that first arived from that country, does not completely resist our climate, their descendants bred in England will ac- quire sufficient hardiness, and even by degrees be brought to bear the fold, if h should be required, as well as our own sheep; and the closeness of tits wool, and the crusts of a waxy matter which peculiarly belong to the breed, ought to preserve them better fiom the inclemency of the weather, than the slighter fleeees of tiie English fine woolled sheep. The foot rot, to which tlie Spanish sheep seem liable, might be avoided by attention and care. * » * The Lines signed' C. W.

ADMIRALTY OFFICE, OCT. 1.— A letter from Captain Browne, of his Majesty's ship Hermes, relates that on the " 2 4th inst. he recaptured the Prussian brig Anna Maria, from Lisbon for Lon- don. On the same day, oil Beachy Head. Cap- tain Browne discovered a large lugger in the midst of a number of English vessels, several of which she had som captured, and one of which she had taken before seen bv the Hermes. " She was in- stantly pursued ( savs the Captain.) and in two hours' time, after sustaining a good deal of filing, which wounded some of the crew, and damaged her sails she struck; but iu the act of bringing to, to take possession of her, the main topsail yard broke in the slings, and the fore- sail of the Hermes split from the violence of the wind, which the privateer immediately took the advantage of; and although in a situation under the '. ee vvhcii * he surrendered, that would have enabled nie to have totally destroyed her, he had the temerity Jo endeavour to escape, by waking sail on the opposite tack; but by the great exertion of my officers the ship was wore, and as much sail set as enabled me to again come up with him, al- though he had got two miles from us on the wea- ther bow, when feeling myself justified after his conduct not to give him an opportunity of again escaping, I determined to run him alongside, not- withstanding it blew a ga'e of wind with a very heavy sea; in doing which he again cndcavourrd to e « eape, by crossing our hawle, when in one instant a heavy sea instantly threw him under the bottom of his Majesty's ship, and 1 lament to say, that only 19 men out of ;> 1 were saved, it being impossible to hoist a boat out— It append she was named La Mouche, of Boulogne, hid sailed the evening before, and mounted 14 carriage guns, IS and 6- poundcrs. I have the satisfaction to state, that not one of the crew of the piiw were taken on board the privateer; she was a ship from the West- Indies, but her name I could not learn." THE BRAZILS. [ EXTRACT FROM PRIVATE LETFENS] " Rio Janeiio, Aug. " The war in the River Plata is carrying on with an inveteracy seldom surpassed, and perhaps ne- ver equalled in any country. The Buenos Ayfians are bombarding the town of Monte Video with the greatest fury, while, on the other hand, the flotilla of Monte Video is bombarding Buenos Ayres It is said that seven thousand Portuguese are marching to the relief of Monte Video, and the report gains credit, from the well- known cir- cumstance that that number of troops have actu- ally been collected on the Rio Grande. Admiial He Courcy sails with his fleet on the 18th for Monte Video, whether to support that town or assist the Buenos Avrians is uncertain; but it is reasonable to suppose that he will sail with instruc tions from tile British Government, and will act in conjunction with the Portuguese troops." DREADFUL FIRE IN RUSSIA. The melancholy news has been received from Lemberg, that the city of Pjttyckow, one of the richest and most commercial in Russia, experi- enced, last month, a dreadful fire, which burnt 662 houses, with many shops. i'he damage sus- tained by commerce is incalculable. Nearly 500.000 ducats in gold, and three millions and a half of rubles in silver, were either plundered during the confusion, or melted by the excessive heat of the flames. Twelve hundred chests of sugar, reach 41 b. weight, 1 t, 0<> 0 boxes of raisins, 2,000 chests of coft'ee, and pelisses and furs to the amount of three millions ef rubles, were burnt. Various merchandise, to amount of five millions of rubles, brandy and wine to the amount of two millions of rubles, have also been destroyed. If these de- tails arc correct, this event will be marked as one of the most unfortunate in Russian history. BANKRUPTS. J. Lveete, Bedwardine, Worcestershire, clove- mannfacturer. W.

By the Fox frigate, the gratifying intelligence lias been received of the capture of two Erench frigates, the Rcuommee. and the Nereide, off Madagascar, hy Ins Majesty's frigates Galatea, Capt. I. osack ; Phoebe, Capt. Ilillyar; Astren, Capt. Schoniberg; and Racehorse cln< ip. The third French frigate, Clorinde, which was in company, had the good fortune to escape; and we are inclined tn think she hns reached Brest in safety, as she answers tlic description of an enemy's frigate which got into that port on Tuesday last. His Majesty's ship Tonnant clnsed her, got within cable's length of her, and fired into her three broadsides ; liut it blowing very hard at the lime, the Tonnant carried away her main top and top gallant ruasts; and the Frenchman escaped within the rocks of the Passage cle Ras The Galatea is stated, in the private letters, ( o have Inst between 50 and till then ill the action. One of the prizes had reach ed the Isle of France; and the other was at Timatave, rigging jury masts. Eai h of the French frigates bad on board ioo troop* for the relief of the Isle of France; and it is again said, that befyre sailing for Madagascar, they made two attempts to land, and retake the Isle of Bnur lion. The action was fought at night, woicli was the e of the Clbri tide's escape. The Fox has brought the melancholy intelligence of the loss of his Majesty's frigate Dover, Captain Tinker, in Madras lload, in a gale of wind ; all mi board pe rished ; some few of th « crew were on shore at the lime. The expedition against B. itavia had sailed for its destination prior to the Fox's departure. Within the last few day's, the following arms and militaiy stores have been sent from the Tower, to be shipped for Malta and Spain :— 15,000 stands of arms, S, 000,000 ball- cartridges, S. 000 barrels of powder, 50 tons of lead, of i ship- load of rockets 2,000 pistols, 94 pieces of brass ordnance, 2,000 sabres, and 20,000 pikes. The British Light Cavalry ( with the exception of the four Hussar Regiments) have lately had their uniforms completely altered, by order of a Board of Kield Officers, appointed for that purpose by the Prince Regent. Their uniforms are to be in future as plain as possible; but the Hussars viz. the 7th, 10th, or Prince's own. 15th, or King' own, and 18th, ate to continue to wear the splendid vtniforms by which these regiments are at present distinguished. MONTHLY AGRICULTURAL REPORT, The report of agricultural proceedings at this season must naturally be a very limited one. The Wheat har- vest, we are concerned to state, proves every day more defective. In the counties of Surrey, Kent, Essex, and Suffolk, the blight has been so extensive as to make the produce fall very short of the expected crop, and to render even the grain of that materially defective.— Onts and Barley are found a full average crop; hut Beans and Peas* hare generally failed, and iu many pans were foiind scarcely worth harvesting.— Clover for nerd has headed kindly this year, and is expected to yield w « ll.— lhe Turnip" have suffered much by the coutinuvd drought, particularly those late sown.— Hay continues to. command high prices, oil account of the thortne- s of feed, arising from the same cause.— Hops are estimated at nearly half a crop ; in lhe Farnham and heat KcutijH plantations the quality proves tine,— Smithfield Market lias experienced a start for prime Beef and Mutton ; but Pig I'ork has declined ill value, front the heat of the weather.— Lean stock is rather lowir, except fur store sheep, which fetch more money,'— The Wool market i- better.

N'WTCH HOSPITAL.— A fire broke out in' 1 Infirmary of this noble edifice about one • k this morning It began in the fi. W. ' e, and the interior of the whole north and -. t sides were totally demolished. The fii'e began it the assistant- surgeon's room. By cutting off the communication in the roof at the North- east and South- west ends, the rest of the building was happily preserved. No lives yvere lost, but one of the patients had his leg broke by a fall down stairs. The British Naval Force, according to the re- turns of last month, consists of 249 sail of the line, including 34 building ; 33 ships froni 50 to 44 guns; 252 frigates, and 1S3 sloops; 12 bombs, 174 brigs, 35 cutters, and 76 schooners; making a total of 1,014 sail. On Thursday the lgth, a spire of a Eew con- struction was erected upon the church of Edg- worthstown, Ireland. It is 50 feet high, made of iron and slate, and pnitited and sanded, so as per- fectly to resemble Portland stone, and was put to- gether withinside of the tower, by which means the expense and danger of the external scaffolding were avoided. All the nobility and gentry for many miles round, who had been invited on the occasion, expressed great gratification in seeing this beautifully prorio tiorted spire gradually raised by machinery, and placed without effort on its destined base. It was only eighteen minutes in its new situation, the pedestal, to v. hich it had been attached during its elevation, descended to the ground with the workmen, who had concluded the operation. The spire is secured from lightning by a cupper conductor, and has been exposed ever since its ascent to the equinoxial gales, by which it, has not been- in the least affected. NOTICES 6F THE ELEPHANT, — Colonel Kirkpatrick, < iti his " Accrfu- rit of the Kingdom of Nepaul," mentions bis having been informed that tw-> or three wild elephants sometimes take pos session of a road, and obsttuct the progress of travellers for a considerable time.— He adds, that certain deputies, on their way from Nepaul to Patna, had their camp assaulted by a large herd of those animals, of which thev found it difficult to rid themselves.— He further observes that the elephants sometimes issue from he forest in droves, over- run the cultivated country on its borders, and sometimes even penetrate a good way into the districts of the East India Company.— On the other hand, Mr Buchanan in his " Christian lie- searches in Asia," gives a remarkable instance of the natural, or, at least, habitual reluctance of the tame elephant to injure a human creature One of those animals, as he informs us, being sud- denly frightened, ran off" through a countless multitude of pilgrims assembled before the tem- ple of Juggernaut: but, though the crowd was very closely thronged together, " lie endeavour ed, in tlvr- midst of his own terror, to throw the people off, on both sides, with his feet; and it was found that be had only trodden upon one person."

TRID AND MOLINEUX — I'he battle between Crib and Mo! ilieux took place 011 Saturday at Thistleton Gap, in the county of Rutland, eight miles from Grantham, bordering 011 three other counties A 25 fee; stage was erected iu a stubble ground, without the slightest interruption, and before 12 o'clock several thousand persons had collected including many of the Nobility and Gentry from the surrounding ' country. Not a bed could be had within 20 miles of the seat of action on Fiiday night. Crib weighed 13 stone 5 or 6 pounds, and Molineux something more than 13 stone Capt. Barclay, by a science of training peculiar to himself, had reduced Crib from upwards of 16 stone to his present weight, still keeping his stamina good. The odds before setting- to weie 3 to 1 on Ciib, and 6 to 4 about • be first knock down The combatants mounted the st3ge at 12 o'clock, and at 18 minutes past ( having viewed each other with significant glances) they prepared for combat: Gtillv and Joe Ward seconded Crib; and Richmond and Bill Gibbons, Molineux. The battle lasted 17| minutes, and consisted of eleven rohndsr in theg h round Cub broke his antagonists jaw 1 and at the close of the I I th ronnd Molineux being unable to stand, victory- was announced in a Scotch reel by Gully and Crib, accompanied with shouts of applause!— Molineux was carried out of the ring senseless, and he is constantly attended bv a surgeon. He has suffered most about the left side, and the jugular vein: he is, however, considered out of danger. Crib is blind, but has received no body hit; and on being j . ked with after the fight, about his captivating apps arance, be observed he would sooner go through such anothei fight, than another an training in the Highlands of Scotland. Crib will benefit 40ol by this victory Another battle took place between George Crib, the cham- pions biother, and a stout countryman, when the latter won in half an hour. The winner was 2 stone the heaviest. The towns of Grantham, Stamford, and in short, the whole North Road, have leaped abundant harvests on this occasion Molineux still remains too indisposed, from the eftects of the boxing match, to be removed. He has received a subscription, at the hands of Mr Jackson, of about 4'> l, Cribb has received the whole of the SOOl won, at the hands of bis backers, and he yesterday appeared in public receiving their congratulations, as we state.) in our account of the fight. He has positively declined ever fighting again, having won twelve battles, nine of them were of a sanguinary nature, and which, to use a technical phrase, has breeched liitn well up. MURDER— Notwithstanding the number of foreign seamen who have been recently executed for the crime of cutting and maiming, those treacherous desperadoes do not appear to have taken warning from the examples. O11 Wednesday evening last, a number of Portuguese sailors went into the Bee- Hive public- house iu VVap ping : one of them, in a short time, quarrelled with an Englishman, who happened to be in the tap room. On his leaving the house, the Portuguese followed him, and, after some altercation, drew a long knife or dagger, with which he stabbed his opponent. The wound was of a most singular description. The instrument entered the hip, penetrated upwards through a small oritiee in the hip- bone, and entered the viscera. The unfortunate man was immediately conveyed to the Loudon Hospi- u here be died about two hours after be had received the wound. #
