According to an article in the National Intelfigencer, it had been ascertained by the American Government that there were 1,799 impressed American seamen in the British service at the period of the rupture be merit the two coont: ies. The American post mt Fort Gaines, on the Creek territory, continued to be annoyed by the hostile party of Creeks. The linlien Lass, frOm South America for Liver pool, with a cargo of 4.15 hales of cotton, was strand ed list week at Carrie, in the County of Wexford.— 'lle ere* stistaii.ed no injury, and the whole cargo has ben saved in good coneliti. , ll, and lodged in the King's stores at Wexford, but the vessel, being in a bad state, cannot . be got off. Sunday evening a singular scene took place in St. A'ttholin's Church, \lading-street, in consequence tithe immense number of persons assembled at that riact to hear Dr. HAsexut, of Plymouth, who had been announced to preach there. So great was the oesire of his admirers to get a ithin the walls of the Church, that at an early hour the doors were thzongid with people, and on their bring opened the ;ter which follnwed was likely to have been attended .with serious consequences. The scene of contusion which ensued is beyond description ; some jumping °tapirs, others climhing up the walls of the church, regardless of the mischief they were committing.— The heat that was produced by so great a concourse of people aided not a little to,the distress and oppaes kin experienced on the 'occasion. After some con. Siderahle time tranquillity was obtained, and the *nice performed. On inspection of the church afterwards, however, it was found that a great part of the brass railing was destroyed. some of the pews /Wien, and tbatonsiderable other damage bad been !Omitted. .

The vessels started at nine o'clock from the buoy of' the Middle, near Cowes, with the wind at S..E. by S. and b eat up through the Loo Stream round the light on the Owers, and returned to thb same place. The match was decided in favour of the Blue.eyed Maid, whose superiority in sailing was fully evinced by her keep ing nearly two miles a-head of the Traveller dating , the day.s A Sailing Match, for an elegant silver cup, took place yesterday, on the Thames—five boats started about rive o'clock in the afternoon from Blackfriar's Bridge, to sail round a boat mooted off Putney, and down to Cumberland Gardens, Vauxhall. Much .nautical skill was displayed during the contest, by the owners of the boats, and the prize was ultimately adjudged to the St. George, Captain Gutzrost. Bi.Accii EAT!! FEDEiTAIAN.•••••EATON was going on well this morning at "eight o'clock, whets he . corn. pleted his 996th mile, and then retired' to breakfast. (42d day): BARNET, Tint Essex Prawn I AN. —Yesterday being fine in the afternoon, induced many persons from the Eastern pan of the Metropolis to repair to Barking, to view the phienomenon of pedestrianism proceeding son his yet unparalleled attempt ; and this being quite novel performance, induced many country folks 'also to resort thither. Amongst the spectators were a number tt Ladies, some of whom, at the comple • lion of his hourly labours, almost killed the little hero with kindness. An attention like this from the fair sex, delighted the veteran, who continues travel ling on, wishing to acciainplish his undertaking t and this morning, at 26 minutes after seven o'clock, be had gone 234 miles. A. Dues —One night last weak, at nearly ton o'doeis two boys, one a Leerier and the other a tooter to a coach office, met at low wale; mark, S iuthsea, to settle an affair of honour respecting a lady's wait ing maid ; they were attended by a single second for both parties—fired two rounds, one ball only had effect by passing through the skirt of the barber's coat. Unfortunately an inhabitant of Sonthsea, who had learnt their errand, missed them by going.home for a horsewhip, with which he would have'so tickled their fadeioreable intention., as to have made them long remember it. CAUTION TO MALTSTERS. — A seizure of malt was made by the Excise Officers is the course of the last week, to die value of se3oo, is consequence of boards being placed behind the malt to protect it from the &asp of the wails. and where they had been fikei for • upwards of 15 years. PRINCESS MARY'S 14ARRI16E. , . tiester2lay, the LORD CHAIBIII/RLAIN liad an inter view with the W A RN, at her Palace, for the purpose of Making arrangements for the marriage of the, Princess MARY with the Doke of Gkottcarsa. His Lordship afterwards went to his office, and gave brders for the necessary preparations. The day fixed I upon for the nuptials is next Monday. • The Priccess MARY and her attendants left Windsor , Castle, on Thursday evening, for London. Her Royal Highness appeared much affected, as it was under. stood the was taki6g her farewell of the Castle, as her residence, pievious to her marriage. Her Royal Highness took an affectionate leave of Princess &Pubs and the prinCipal attendants. Numbers of the set rant* and inhabitants of Windsor attended, to take their respectful leave, anti make their obeisance, hei Royal Highness lining beloied and respected by all milks. Her Royal Highness the Princess AtmusvA return ed to Windsor Castle, oti Saturday evening, from London. The Duke of YORK arrived at the Castle on Wednesday, but remained only a short time.— The Duke of Mo!triton left on Friday for London. His Grace proceeds from thence to Scotland. The Noble Duke was relieved fitim his attendance on the Klaci, as one of the ?owl's Counsel, during the time the QUEEN is in ondon, by the arrival of the Archbishop of CANTERBURY. We are happy to say the Duke of CLARENCE IS recovered Ism his indisposition, and came to Lon don yesterday, ter the first time since his indisposition. His Royal Highness went to Carlton House, and paid his respects to the Patna REGENT. We remarlicd with pain that the indecent foreign dance called the Walls war introduced (we believe, for the first time) at the British Cottrt, on Friday last. This is a circumstance which ought •not to be passed over in silence. National morals depend on national hab4s, and it is quite sufficient to cast one's eyes on this dance, to see that it is tar indeed removed from the modest re.erve which has hitherto been con. sidered distinctive of English females. So long as this obscene display was confined to prostitutes and adul. tresses, we did nor think it deserving of notice ; but now that it is attempted to be forced on the respec table classes of society by . the evil example of their superiors, we feel it a duty to warn every parent against exposing his daughter to so fat.tl a coin igion. We know not how it has happened (probrbly by the recommendation of some wohhle.s and ignorant French dancing-master) that so indecent a dance h.ss now for the first time been exhibited at the British Court; but the novelty is one deserving of severe re probation, and we trust it will never again be tolerated in any moral British society. The Duke of Yottit transacted military business with the PRINCE RECENT yesterday at Carlton House. Yesterday the Duke of ORLEANS paid his respects to the PRINCE REGENT. There will be some advancements in the Peerage and a small batch of 'new Pecrs, belore the next Session of Parliament. Yesterday his Excellency the SPANISH AMBALSA DOR gave a sumptuous entertainment to his Royal Highness the CoMMANDBR IN Clare, at his Inagrofi. Cent mansion, in Portland-place. To meet the Duke of YORK wefe invited the AUvratftor, ayssviv, and FRENCH AMBASSADORS. In compliment to his Royal Highness, a proportion of his Staff ware also invited. The, banquet was served up at seven o'clock—it was an swipe display. Friday the agreeable news , fr&ls COMM-Mk:l ted to the Tenantry of the Eat! of Cuesitaricto (now a minor and a ward of Chancery). at Bingham, Wh ton, Shelford, &condole, Etc. that the Lour) Csifoi- CItLLOR had been pleased, upon their petition, to direct an abatement of 25 per cent. iipon their resrtective rents, to commence from Michaelmas last, 1815. Yesterday and today have done homage to the wahry Saha ip plenteous showers. It has now rained foe 4t► days past. During a violent thunder-storm, nine sheep, be !tagging to Mr. Josta Lovett, of Yeddingham, were killed by the lightning. The sheep were standing close together, under a hedge, where they had taken shelter. Thursday se'nnight, Mr. Ammo, landlord of Rosalyn Inn, (formerly of langan's.well), was killed in the streets ut Port-Glasgow, by his horse falling With him. Friday evening the colliers coming from work nut of the coal.pit called the Knowles Drumbles, be longing to the Fenton Park company, three men were fastened in the chains, as usual, to secure them, when three others, thoughtless young men, laid hold of the chain without being fastened therein; on.arriving at the top of the pit, before they could be landed, two of them fell to the bottom, and were killed, one aged 21 and the other about 15 years. We are sorry to understand, that the old esta blished Uuion Bank *of Falkirk, by a rtufmade upon them from a very erroneous report' which bad gone abroad, have been obliged to suspend their payments. but, in the course of a few days, they have every rea ion to hope they will resume them..-- , Cok It/emery. The &ford:hire Alvertior states, that it is nut title that Sir Kimmel. Peet. and Co. had reduced the num ber of their workmen ; on the contrary, not a man has been discharged, andithis is the Only house in the trade which has been enabled to and work tor the whole of their people. Friday last Neil Delight: was convicted before the High Court of Justiciary, at Edinburgh, - of fraud and wilful imposition, and sentenced to one year's imprisonment,—He had represented himself as rela ted to Lord Melville, and as possessing great influence with his Lordship ; and also with Mr. ,Cobb. the Secretary to the India House, by which means he swindled several persons out of considerable sums of Money for situations, which he pretended lie had procured for them in India. Beason, 311 Ly 6.--111sirder.—A barb ar rus nu:2d was perpetrated in Ennishowen, on Tuesday last.— Norton Bottler, Esq. -tif Grouse Hall, Seneschal of the Manor, was walking in his own fields about seven o'clock in the evening. when two ruffians came for ward and immediately that him. He.lived only a short time; but we are informed, before he died was able to describe the men who had attacked him.— Mr. Battler had been instrumental in bringing to justice some fellows for an attempt to murder, and this horrid event is suppoled to have been the conse quence of ovine. 1" • 4, THlaTxF.s: • • • COVENT- GAIIDEN.ss—Th i Theatre clrsed last night; with the Opera of Areminvers. the Farce of .the SAO Walher, s and the Rcmance of Blue Beard. .

ENOLIMI OPER& Housx.—Last night the setious. Opera of Artaxerxes was repeated, and the young Lady, Miss Malay, (pupil ot Mr. THOMAS W Etsn), made her second appearance on any stage in the ay.. duous character of Mandan. Her figure is of the middle stature, very good, and her features strong ] handsome, and expressive; her voice is of the most mellow kind, full and sweet, and although we consi.: der excessive execution of rapid passages the last ob. ject that should occupy the time and mind of a singerp, yet when nature has betowed such an advantage is voice, obedient like Miss Menay's, we should think it insprOper to have it neglected : this, however, has not been her ease ; her -songs v:ere delivered with pathos and neatness seldom heard, and although her test's were still at the moment distressing to the feel. ing hearts of an English audience, they were of that genuine kind which would alooe belong' to real tir•niesty. The house was fdll in every part, and the delight eiperienced was perfect- enthusiasm. We congratiilite the Public on so great an addition to the . amusetnents of the town, and the young Lady on her, brilliant success. The &sets between Mon MEltft T and Mr. Horst Were truly beautiful, and we cannot too highly praise the exertions of the Manager who has selected pupils front the schriol that has presented to the Init , le.ll world such talents as Mr. SINCLAIR and Miss Srerucs:s.

Deserseyesers.—We have not Oli weeks to vetoed any' fresh outrages in the midland vninties ;—but very great and serious alarm is eitited at the long continued existence, in the very heart of the kiregdotro. of that secret association known by the name attic Luddite:, whose destructive 'operations the utmost vigilance cf the Executive has not been able to. pre. vent. What excites, perhaps, more alarm than any thing else, is the excellence of their organization, which could not be exceeded by the most regular military force. At the late etarage at Lostgliirerough, independently o. the supposed number of nearly So, who were . actively concerned in committing these excesses in the interior of the factory, it is contidently believed that there were not less than SO or 60 others stationed on the outside, in the manner of seutiuel& or. petioles, in every direction, and even along the Mill -street, to within a vary few yards of the market place of Loughborough. Some of these patroks called aloud, warning, the inhabitants to keep in their beds, and not to exhibit any lights.—(Cerlisie Journal.) The weavers'wors in Carlisle were 'urther reduced last week: The poor creatures have,in consequence, been reduced to that state of apathy, that many have desisted from wolIc; earning a mi,erable and preca rious subsistence by , other means. We are happy to •observe, that no acts of outrage have been committed in consequence, unless it uuder this term we may inelotle the throwing of a large stone through the window •of. . a certain manufacturer's house is this -city. We trust, however; that we shall not have to record any serious disposition to tumult. Tee poor, we:believe., are.generally convinced, that this is the . way to idatalle•rather than to remove the M.ndry sennight about filty colliers arrived at Chester. tram the. neighbourhood of Wolverhamp. ;ou; drawing a waggon loaded.with coals, with the protess4d intention of obtaining relief from the bene. volent inhabitants of the towns and villages through ,which they_ passed on their way to Livtrpool. Infer. 'nation having been given to the . Magistrates of that city, of iikei! appipach, Aldermen AVANS, BOWERS, r arid Bfrniotip, etternied by Mr. Fir:CHM, the Deputy Town Cleric, met them,in the suburbs of the city I —_ on being Informed who they were, the men intone& at,ly pulled off their hats, and paid great and respe c t. lul attention, while. the Magistrate. addressed mem on the illegality and dangerous tendency of their proceedings ; they told ;hem, that thnugh they well Knew and lamented the teMporary distresses of the country, and of .their business and district particu. larly, they would• not permit this mode of mat, whilst it might legally and mare effectually be had in their own parish, where their situation and circom. stances are known ; they, therefore, earnestly entrea ted them, to return 'peaceably to their respective homes, and they would take the coals, arid give them money to defray their expenses on the road ;—but if 'they attempted to go into the city; they stiould be opposed, and punished to the utmost severity of the law. This firnethough conciliating conduct had the desired effect ; the men consented to return. Tee Magistrates ordered twenty pounds to be givers e n the men, and horses to be brought to draw the te es . gun load of coals to the lufirmary, which was dome acctsJingly. •
