It is, however. admitted, that he bargained for the purchase of 24 sixty-fourths for himself and his brother : that, owing to the un (avowable appearance of the Mine, the bargain was not completed ; and that this business is now the subject of a Chancery-suit between him and Mr. .10811nA Rowe, the undisputed proprietor of the other five-eighths.—Royal Cornwall Gazette. A duel was fought on Saturday morning, on Blackheath, between a Gentleman of the name of Desofis and Mr. S---D—R--L, a Gentlen#tn of for tune in Kent. arising out of a dispute at one of the* Chelmsford Race Balls.

A duel was fought on the fOth of June, between Baron RETNIANN, the Banker of Frankfort, and M. As.Leoe., the Secretary to the French Legatio at that city. It originated in a difference of political opinion. The duel was fought with pistols ; after firing several shots, the seconds Interfered and put an cud to the affair without either of the parties beirg injured !

INE FRANKLIN M ANUS CRIPTS.—The number of new and very ingenious philosophical papers con tained in the Third or concluding Volume of Dr. Franklin's Memoirs, just published, will be perused with infinite gratification. It merits observation, how ever, that notwithstanding the high eminence which Dr. Franklin has attained as an experimentalist, he in reality may be said to have only made philosophy the amusement of his leisure hours, in which it af forded him a pleasing recreation, fter a variety of more laborious occupations.

The Troops now stationed at Leeds are a Detach ment of Artillery, the 9th Dragoons, the 31st, 38th, and 71st Foot. The gallant 78th Regiment of Highlanders, who have been stationed at Mullingar, for such a length of time, have been removed to Athlone, to the great ' regret of the neighbourhood ; their extremely good conduct in their quarters at Mullingar could only be equalled by the spirit they so conspicuously evinced upon many occasions in the field. Several Detach ments from that Regiment were quartered, the en tire of last winter and spring, in the neighbourhood of Clonard. NAVAL 4NTELLIGENCE.

The TARTAR frigate, Commodore Sir GEORGE RALPH COLLIER, arrived at Portsmouth, on Satur day afternoon, from the coast of Africa and the West plclies. She left Jamaica on the 23d of June, and proceeding to Cape Henry, left the island of St. Do mingo on the 7th ult. That island was in a state of perfect tranquillity, and the Llaytian Government was completely established in its Cpu.rt, and Army and Navy ; the population was rapidly increasing, and commerce very flourishing. The im port and export duties had been reduced to 5 per cent. for English goods, and 10 per cent. for the pro duce of all other countries. The KING was superin tending the erection of a line of fortifications, as a barrier to the Spaniards. The Haytian Hospital is under the care of d Mr. STEWART, of the Navy, who ranks as a Brigadier General.

The SewitrAN frigate, Captain Wise, had conveyed a large quantity J 1 specie from the Spanish Main to Port Royal. She had sailed for Barbadoes, Hali fax, and England. The squadron under Sir HOME POPHAM had been sickly, but the crews of the ships were nearly recovered. Sir HOME had returned to Jamaica, having been to the Havannah and Vera Cruz, respecting the treatment experienced by our ships of war at these places. General Miscorteoon was at Port-au-Prince. He had lost nearly all the remnant of his defeated troops by sickness.

About nine o'clock, another fire broke out at Mr. LEvonT's, barge-builder, Bull-stairs, Upper-Ground, Chrkt- Church, Surrey, which consumed the premises, and the stock in trade. It was occasioned by the pitch pot boiling over.—Sunday night a dreadful fire broke out at the house of Mr. NAE isr, oil and colourman, Ratliff-highway, which in a short time consumed the premises, with the stock in trade. DUBLIN, AUGUST 6. OUTRAGE ON GENERAL D'EVEREAUX. DUBLIN POLICE; MARLBOEOUGH-STRZET.--• Yes terday General D'Evereaux, accompanied by Colonel M'Dermott, and several Officers and Gentlemen, at tended at this office, to complain of an outrage cona nikted on him, by two persons, the one calling him self *Gregor, brother to Sir Gregor *Gregor, the other, Doctor 0'11614, the brother-in-law. Mr. HUBAND, as Counsel for the defendants, ad dressed the Magistrate. He was authorised by his clients to say, they felt deep regret for having by their .conduct, transgressed the law, in offering an insult to General D'Evereaux, and they were ieady to make every atonement in their power. His clients con ceived they had a right to call on the General in con sequence of remarks made by tam on the conduct of their relative, General Sir Gregor *Gregor, hut, at the same time, they. admitted that they had acted ex tremely wrong, in the manner in which they obtru ded into General D'Eveteaus's chamber, and were ready to make such an apology here, or in any other place, as the General, or the presiding Magistrate, , thought proper to dictate. The Magistrate said, he would recommend a con ciliatory line of conduct. With reference to the feel ings of the respected General who complains, he would say, that, embarked as he was in a great pub lic cause, his feelings must he alive to every senti ment of honour ; and he had no doubt that the Gene ral, in bringing forward his complaint, was actuated by those feelings alone, and if an apology were ac cepted of in that office, he should be happy to see, it settled in such manner. General lIEVEREAUX was not moved personally by any hostile feelings towards the persons who broke, into his room, and that, too, at an unseasonable hour —that for himself he did not look for any apology, he could not, in fact, require an apology from per sons from whom, in consequence of their conduct, he could not receive a message. The apology should be made to the offended, laws of the country, and to the violated rules of society. Mr. HUBAND said, he viould not have taken a course different front that of the General. Mr. CARROLL, a the friend of the General, ;E.- quested permission to observe, that the General wa,s ehibpked in a great and honourable cause ; that he had, high and important duties to discharge; that a proper attention to those duties would naturally ptompt bim to the course he had taken. The MAGISTRATE observed, that as it occurred to him that a very strong apology must go to the pub lic, and in order to aportion it to the offence, he thought it necessary that the whole of the facts should be stated by the General. General D'EVEREAUX then stated, that he had never seen the defendants in his life, until they forced into his bed-room, in Gresham's Hotel, on Wednes• day morning, about the hour of four o'clock. Being awoke by the noise, he observed the curtains had been drawn back, and the younger of the two (M'Gre gor) at his bedside, brandishing a large stick, and threatening with imprecations, " to knock his brains out, and to rip out his guts ;" in short, all the lan guage used by him (M , Gri.gnr) t h e G enera l did not think it decorous to repeat. His threats, and the violence of his language were such, that the Genera) attempted to ring his bell, which was near the bed.- side, when M‘Glegor seized the cord, and swung it from his reach. At this moment the other defendant entered the room, and said he was Dr. O'Reilly. He, conducted himself in a more peaceful manner, and did not use 'such low language as M'Gregor. He told the General that this high-blooded Highlander (M'Gregor) had come to demand satisfaction from him, as representative of Sir Gregor l‘Pgregor , whom he (the General) had spoken disrespectfully of: and that if the General refined to meet 111 , Ciregor, he was determined that the General should meet him (Dr. O'Reilly.) 'I he Gene: al replied that he did not know thorn, and that their conduct was so ex tremely reprehensible, and, in every respect so un gentlemanlike, its breaking in on his repose at so un seasonable an hour, pr indeed to have obtruded into his chamber at any hour, that be could hold no com munication with them, and desired them to withdraw. They retired. These were the plain facts, and he had nothing further to say. Mr.liusa.tirt said, he held a letter in his hand, which had 'stimulated his clients to act in a manner which he would not attempt to justify, but which, he trusted, would have its fair effect with the Magistrate in framing the apology to be made. He then asked General D'Evereaux if the letter he then held was written by him? General D'Eveeenpx—" Certainly, I avow it ; but I hold in my hand a letter from a distinguished Offi cer in his Majesty's service, which occasioned me to write the letter produced by Mr. Huband. My lettei was written under the feeling that my countrymen had been slaughtered." After some discussion, both letters were handed to the Magistrate for his private perusal. Having read each, he said it was evident that the letter received by General D'Eveieaux occasioned his writing the one complained of. The MAGISTRATE then proceeded to pronounce upon the case. He took a very comprehensive view of the law, as it might, in its bearing, affect the par ties before him—he, with great force and eloquence, dwelt upon the violent and o . utrageoes proceeding of the defendants, which, nothing lie (the Magistrate) had heard or seen, could, in the least degree, justify, and, after paying a high compliment to the character of General D'Evereaux, declared that had he adopted any other line of conduct, he would have compro mised that character. He had, iii . the first place, a duty to the public, and in acting as he did, he had discharged that duty. He had a duty as a General, and in acting as he did, he had discharged that duty. He had another duty, that of a private Gentleman, and in acting as he did he bad discharged that duty. He wished it to be understood distinctly, that had General D'Evereaux taken any other course, he would have compromised the character of every Gentleman in this and every other country; so far as it was possi ble to the conduct of an individual to have that effect. General D'Evzsearit ' addressing Mr. Casey. said, what has fallen from you, Sir, wit h so much force and eloquence, must be considered highly satisfactory. The Macuraarx then Failed on Mr. M'Gte;or and Dr. O'Reilly to stand forward, while, in their Game, he %voila say, that he . felt they had acted, in a moat improper and nn'iustifialge manner ; that they wer* extremely sorry for It, and thaohtial to General D'Evereaua for not pinning the natter parties then retired. 1 ., f. , I, ,Z 1 11 0, i 1 1 i I it: ! k . , ', . ,„ 1 g .
