The Ad- miral expelled to find at Porto Praya the expedition under General CRAWFORD and Captain STOPFORN and was to have affirmed the command of the •effels employed in that fervice ; but unfortunately Captain STOPPORD, after waiting for force time at the place of rendezvous, failed for his defiinatinn on tl:e 12th of January, with the Spencer, Thefeirs, and Come fma)l veffels ; leaving a Ichooner to c: uize off the port for ten days, to inform the Admiral of his courfc, &c.

Accounts were received in town nn Saturday from the River Plate as late as the 6th December. Several Spani(h officers had arrived iron) the interior at Monte Video, for the purpofe of organizing the inha bitants and others difpored to arms. All the mercantile people have left off barriers, and turned their atten tion to arms. A thong force was preparing to go againa Maldonado. Their fume(' at Buenos Ayres has had an aftonifhing effeEt upon the minds of the Spaniards; they confider themfelves the fink warriors ;n the world. Saturday letters reached town from New South Wales, by fume whalers arrived in the River. The accounts from Port Jack* are dated the middle of Augull, and announce the following arrivals from England, viz.—Lady Magdelina Sinclair, JACKSON, with the new Governor, Bracru Albion, RiCHARU ION ; Elizabeth, BANKS% ; Alexander, B R ooms ; and Fortune, Mooas. The Settlement WAS healthy. Yefterday morning Captain Seesaw, of the Ma rines, arrived at the Secretary of State's Office, with difpatches from Lieutenant Colonel Cot.t.a Ns, Cover. nor of the new fettlement which has been formed on Van Diemen's Land. Captain SLADfrN left the let dement early in September lafl, in the Carleton wha ler, of Liverpool, and arrived at St. Helena about the 15th December. On the 4th of January, the fhip Memphis arrived at St. Helena, with difpatches from Sir HOME POPHAM, Rating the lois of Buenos Ayres, which were forwarded to the Cape of Good Hope in the Sceptre tranfport. The Memphis being bound to England, Captain SLADEN left St. Helena on the • 7th January, in the Memphis—a few days previous to which, the Santa Chrilliana, extra India man, arrived with difpatches from Bengal, direct to England : Ilse had touched at the Cape, where the Georgiana,Company's packet, had RHO arrived from Bengal, with paffengers, about the sth of December. The accounts which have been is circulation of a fcarcity exifling in the new fettlement, prove to be corral. Some time previous to Captain SLADEN'S embarking for England, the rations of. the convißs, and others, were three pounds of Indian corn, one pound of beef, and a pound of rice per man every week. Such perfons as had mutton to fell, demanded half a crown per pound ; a (mall roafling pig was four dollars, and rum 51. per bottle, or 201. per gal lon. Supplies had been received from Port Jackfon, which, in Tome meafure, relieved their necellities ; but, notwithfianding the difcouraging appearances, there is no doubt that, in a few years, the Colony will be as flout-Ming as that of New South Wales, The air is particularly healthy, the climate is mild, and the foil very good. The Buffalo flare (hip, which accompanied Captain BLIOH from England, was ex petted at New South Wales in September, when Go vernor Klan would be relieved. On the arrival of the Memphis in the Channel, the was chaced three times, by two French loggers and a brig, one of which came fo near to the Memphis, that the prepared to engage, being armed with 18 twelve-pounders, when the Frenchman theered 'off. The Britannia, Hussey, arrivedon Saturday from Botany Bay, which fettlement the left on the nth of Auguft. We are concerned to Rate that the accounts received by her, confirm the previous reports relative to the deplorable Date of the colony. From the tear city, almoft verging upon famine, which prevailed according to the latl advice., the inhabitants bad placed their hopes of deliverance in the near approach of harvelt. But of this confolation they had been fuddenly bereft,by (need; ve heavy falls of rain which inundated all the plantations, and fw•ept away the corps. When the Britannia failed, the wholefale price of flour was upwards of 41. per cwt. Some difpo fition to riot and plunder was manifetted, but nothing ferrous had taken place, and, confider ing the fuffet ings of the people, they had condoled themfelves beyond expeaation. The Britannia has alto brought an account of the arrival at Port Jackfon of zhe RICHARDSON I and the Elizabeth, BURKE, from London. BRIGHTON, FEBRUARY t 3. Two foreign veffels appeared off this place in the morning of Wednefday, and !willed fignals of diarefs. 'rhe wind blew brifkly from the fouth weft at the time, and there was a great (well in the Channel.— A boat foon after put off to them. 'l'he firtl it came up with proved to be a Portugnefe brig, the Maria, from Lifbon, laden with cotton. and bound to Cher. burg. The fhip was deflitute of prorifioas and water, and wifhed to put into the neared port. to obtain a fqpply of both. Two individua4 of the boat's crew *ere put on board, who fabfequently piloted the brig for the harbour of Newhaven, while the boat made for the other velTel, that was apparently in want of its affiltance. The fecond Chip was a Portugnefe alto, that had a paffenger on board that. wilhed to be landed on Englith ground, but which the Mermen, fufpeet ing, from his wearing ear rinse, that he was not an Englithman, though affured to the contrary, refufed to atfitt him in doing. The former veal, from the nature of her cargo, as cotton makes no part of the produce of Liam), is at this time performing quaran tine at Newhaven, thoug it is expeaed the will be releated in a day or two.

It is remarkable that !he greatell apprehenfions had been long entertained that filch would one day be the fate of this unhappy lady, who had once at lean before caught fire to her cap while reading, and a fervant was retained with orders to be con(lantly prefent with her, to guard againft fo dreadful an event. This fervant had not been out of the room a quarter of an hour, when re turning, with the footman, they found their miltrefs's cloaths on fire, her perfon dreadfully burnt, and al ready in a Rate of collocation, from which the never after revived. L (IV INTELLIGENCE. COURT OF KING'S BENCH, FEE. r 4. ELOXAM V. PHILLUPS. TMs was an aftion on a Bill of Exchange for 6cci. It appeared that the defendant, Manic had married a lady of conliderable property in Wales ; the had a pork! landed ellate, :Ind there was a large quantity of timber upon it. The defendant found a purchafer for it : he ~ g reed to peel him lim ber to a certain chew, if he won': accept a hill for fool. Mr. Alexander did fo, and the bill w4s at ter wards paid to the plaintiff. The Trullees of the lady, however, reltrailied the defendant from cutting the timber, confcquently there was no conlideration for the note, and Mr. Alexander refuted to pay it. An aaion was therefore brought againft the drawer, and a verdiet was given fur the plaintiff. ABEL AND ANOTHER V. GOLDSMITH. This alto WAS an aClion upon a Bill of Ex-'ianr , e for t 2701. and intereft. The neceffary proofs of hand writing. &c. being made. Mr. PARKE, for the Defendant, intimated to the Court, that he had two kinds of defence to this ac- I lion. The Mt was, the want of a proper Ramp upon the bill of exchange, and the fecond was, that the bill was given on account of a frnuggling concern.— : With refpea to the firft objeClion, - he admitted, that upon the face of the bill, it appeared to be drawn at Guernfey, and that itland not being amenable to the laws of this country, there would be no neceffity for la (lamp ; but if 11 e was rightly Wit-treed, he fhould prove that the bill was aCtually drawn in the boofe of the Plaintiffs, Meffrs. Abel and Staelchoufe, not too yards from Guildhall, and therefore it fhould be Ilzmped. With refpeft to the fecond objedtion, he f.iid he fhould prove, that this was a smuggling tramf aetion, in which all the parties were concerned. The goods for which the bill in quedion was given, were to be purchafed at Gnernfry, and fmuggled into this country, by feveral fmugglers who were jointly con cerned with thefe parties. Mr. Goldfmith, being the oftenfible perfon, had accepted the bill ; but the truth was.that his (hare Only amounted to about fixty pounds, which he was ready to pay. The Learned Counfel admitted,.tirat although this ol , jeetion would not be a good one agana a bone:fide holder, as in the cafe of ufury, yet, where he lh •lild Phew that there panic: themfelver were chiefly concerned in the tranfitelion. he conlidered that thereby the bill became vitiated: The truth was, the goods were fhipped for this coun try, but on their pelage were feized by the Revenue Officers, and condemned as fmuggled property. Si.me evidence to thefe fads was then adduced, but not fu thciently corroborating them, the Jury found a verdii for the Plaintiffs for the whole amount. COURT OF COMMON PLEAS, FE8.14: BAYLIS V. CARDEN. This was an action to recover 501. tinder the P.l. lowing circumflances—Mr. Serjeant Sneensen ftsid his client was an induflrions haymaker, and often indulged himfelf, in his leifure hours, by reading t!'e New(papers. Unfortunately, in there moments of relaxation, his eye caught an advertifemcnt, which held forth fuch fatcinating profpeets, that he was determined to find nut its Author. In confequence he made application to the defendant, from wham he learned, that, by great affiduity, and a thorough knowledge of chemihry, he had brought to perfec tion a liquid for cleaning boot tops, and required only a very (mall capital to realize a fortune. I tie Learned Serjeant Paid, his client was not much en. raptured at firft with the defetalant's Story; efpeci ally, as he could not convince him of the necellity of having Clean boot tops to trudge through the flreets in dirty weather. The defendant, howevec,,. after feveral interviews, perfuaded the plaintiff to ad vance 501. to purchafe fixtures, compounds, &c. for which he was to have half the profits. Bufinefs com menced, and the defendant (to ufe the w.o.ds of the Learned Serjeant) completely humbugged the public; for he fold a great quantity of his mixture. His client could not bring the defendant to any kind of tenement, and whiled to have nothing more to do with the concern, provided the defendant would re turn him the 501 he bad advanced. This propoiel was reietied by the defendant, who raid he would return him 351. " by way of getting rid of him as a partner;" and if he did not accept of that offer, he had better file a bill in the Court of Chancery. This condu& of the defendant (laid the Learned Gimlet) reminded him of a story, related by a Learned Brother, whick, his Lorghip's permilfion, he would Rate :—" A gentleman, who reticles in the Temple, was much troubled with a ffrange cat—he wifhed to have it deilroyed, and for that purpofe employed his fervant, ah After a few days had expired, enquiry was made relpefling the cat—whether the animal was difpofed of, ;sever so return. 0 yes,' lays Pat, I put her into one of your kgt, and left her in the Court of Chancery." Here tne Learned Judge enquired whe ther a legal iniirument had paired between the plain tiff and defendant ; and being anfwered in the affir mative, his Lordfhip was of opinion, that the a:lion would not lie, and the plaintiff was nonfuited. On Friday the remains of General REID, Colonel of the 88th Regiment of Infantry, were removed front Nis late refidence ir. the Haymarket, for interment, in St. Margaret's Church, Wearaintter. Lady FOLEY and another lady were, on Friday, thrown from an open cart iage near Whitley, inWor cenerfhite, and one of the *heels paired over one of her Ladyfhip's legs, fortunately, without injury to her. Saturday, at the Hatton Garden Police Office, J. Robinfon was committed, for a burglary in a farm houfe at Thorley, in Hertfordfbiri, as was a man charged with various acts of fwiodling. Rsor.—A moft daring outrage on public deco rom took place yellerday in the fields near unG wick-fquate, occationed by two Irak fellows aud their feconds meeting upon that, fpot to decide a quarrel that took place the previous evening in the pirlieus of St. Giles's. ilfern fitting to, they were interrupted by the Police -Officers and come Conga. tiles, which fo irritated their followers (upwards of a 000), that they fell upon the Peace Officers with bludgeons, and beat them in a moll dreadful manner. Some of them were brought off the field ferioufly wounded, particularly Mr. Bell, the High Conftab!e, whole f k ull, we underitand, was dreadfully fractured.
