Etta This morning we received a Moniteur of the 27th : It contains no news, being chiefly filled with Addreffes to the FIRST CONSUL, in confe quence of the Seriatim Colfahuni, which eftablithes the Confulate for life ; and Copies of the Mandates of the Archbithop of PARIS, the Archbifhop of TOUR s, the Bifhop of Taoyss, and the Bithop of Nancy, which ordered a Te Delon to be chaunted in the Churches of their Diocefes, on the day of its publication.—Five per Cents. 53 fr. 25 C.

Yellerday Mr. CCU! ' ' the meffenger , was fent from Lord PELHAM'S MCC, with difp etches to his MAJESTY at Weymouth. Yetlerday, at two o'clock, the Earl of St. VIII. CENT. Capt. MARILH•OI, and Mr. GARTHSHOILS, attended by Mr. Miasma, Secretary, fet off from the' Admiralty for Plymouth, there to hold a Board of Admiralty. Earl ST. VINCIEIT, and the two other Lords of the Admiralty who accompany him to Plymouth, will infpea the flips in ordinary there, the Victual. ping Marines R ationed at that port. The name of the Member for Norwich is not Jona, but ROBERT FILLOWES, Efq. Mr. Gotnsum's amiable family from Morden are preparing to firs the coal from Brighton to Weymouth, where they will pay their refpeas to their MAJISTIES. Earl Sart oii. and family, are gone for tag months into Leiceflerthire. His friends hope his Lordfhip will not keep his refolution. It has been faid that the Cm :iv Cow s u t has for bidden the inzrodu&ion of Englilh Newfpapers in France. Such a report (cents highly improbable, as the Chief Conful would hardly deny himfelf the advantages refulting from fuch important fources of paairal ialrufiion. - - - The angry articles in the Mariteur are laid to have produced an alarm on the Stock Exchange ; and the invectives againft our beef have confider ably afetled the hull account. I. ient..CoL Jonas's troop of the 18th regiment of Light Dragoons, are arrived at the barracks at York. On Monday laft, Captain Joint STOV'S company, Firft Regiment of Dundee Volunteers, met in the Mafon Lodge, Murraygate. and unanimoully re (aired, that Mould their country again require their fervice, they will cheerfully come forward, and enroll themfelves to ferve under Capt. Joule- STOIC without pay. The Company; force time ago, prefented Captain Jima STON with a neat In ver fnuff box, and two handfome filver rummers, with fuitable infcriptions, in tellimony of the high fenfe they entertained, not only of his particular attention to them in their public capacity as volun teers, but alto, of the earneft, difinterefted, and ac tive part he takes to promote their individual in tereft in their different profeffions. It was generally underflood, lays a Correfpon. dent, when the augmentation of half pay to thole' truly valuable let of men the Sea Officers took place, it would have extended to all of them.— But, alas! it has not ; the firft hundred Lieute nants have not benefited at all by it, they having received ss. a day fome years pall, and conic. quently expeEted to have had fome addition given to them. It may be thought by fome that they are now grown old, and cannot be of any more fer vice to their country ; and that by giving an ad ditional (billing a day it will be a welkinl expence of the public money. If Co, why not cut off a nice from the falary of the Clerk of the Pells for there old veterans, many of whom have been up wards of 4o years Lieutenants in the fervice ? _ Three boxes of the curiofities of Bgypt, landed laft week at Plymouth, which were chiefly collat ed among the ruins of ancient Athens and Coi i nth, by Lorclacia's order, have been opened for the infpedion of the curious.

The inhabitants of this place look forward with joy to the return of their MAJESTiii and aloft Family to Windfor, which it is expelled upon good authority, will take place about the latter end of the month, as DO circamilanee can be more wel come to their grateful paritbioners than the pre tence of the Royal Refidents, who alone can rellore to the town by their return all they can with for : their abfence is ferioufly felt by the majority of the inhabitants, as the contributory munificence of the Rover. Fessttor ellablithes the chief hopes of their faithful fubjeas of Windfor, and from which they derive riches, honour, and pleafure, three as gratifying poffeffions as the mind can acknow ledge. WETMOUTII, AUGUST 19. The ROYAL FAMILY honoured the Theatre Lift night with their pretence. This morning, the Kara, Duke of Cumsta- LA ND, and Prineefs SOP NIA rode out on horfeback, and her Majtm , and the other Panic vsss s, in their fociables, rode to Dorchefter, to the feat of Mr. FILAMPTOII 9 where they partook of an elegant collation. His Royal Higbee& the Panics of WALI3 is expected this afternoon. There has been much controverfy here refped ing his Majeay's bargemen having been beater s in their rowing for the purfe of money which the Kowa ordered them to receive for their aquatic (kill ; feven veffels called gigs fluted, with picked men of the town of Weymouth, who were thought to be fuperior to any of the London watermen.— The Royal bargemen won the race (of four miles) in twenty-five minutes, by a boat's length. Many bets were depending on the noted Tibbs, who is allowed to be one of the firs in his profeffion. Their MeIJESTS is leave Weymouth early in Sep tember. A Shocking accident happened to one of the tailors belonging to the Coarratics !loop, as the was faluting on failing out of the harbour. A feaman went on the muzzle of the gun with intent to load it, but it having been prevtoufly charged, by force mifmanagement it was let off, and the poor fellow was blown off, and precipitated into the tea. The body was picked up yefterday by one of the boatmen belonging to Lulworth. BRIGH7VN, AUGUST rg. The prefentfplendid and prolific feafon has much influence on the company : the Steine is deferted while the fun is near the zenith, and the thepherds and Ihepherdelfes from Garlick•hill and Cateaton flreet are denied the rural privileges of fcrambling up the adjacent hills, covered with chalk, and tanned with the folar ray. The civic Magiftrates, and fubfy Dowagers, are lofing much of their ro tundity, every hour -- “While the earth below Is parch% And the beaVos above us fry!" Wherever an awning, or Glade prefents itfelf, the fetes huddle together, like (beep beneath the haw. thorn, and commune, and pant, and baa, until tome fuperior bell-weather calls them from their retreat to entertain them with a paper-balloon, a gilded rattle, a fhivercd curricle, or a (hip in dillrefs ! The following pithy and eloquent colloquy, which occurred this morning on the marine pa rade, between a fmock-faced young hero of qua lity, and his inamorata, will fully explain the intenfe operation of the heat : Gin; r 'Amax —Come, Delia, bcaut'oue Della, come, Let's vibe Major LAD r..-1 can't, I can't, my Lordliug dear, Cb--- J---s, I'm fo hot ! In the evening, the immenfe crowds of fathinna bles that were wont to honour the Stein with their prefence, are dwindled into a few !haggling pro. menading parties, compofed of " we know not who." Mrs. FITZHIRUERT returned from Bognor, to her houfe on the South Parade, lal night, about eight o'clock. The arrivals here within thefe few Jays have not been very numerous. Among the molt dillinguifhed are, Lady Douow, the Hon. Capt. KENNEDY, the Hon. Mrs. WsErosv, &c.— Lord and Lady Ms Lulu RN E fet off yefterday from the Earl of Lo caw's, at Wick, for the metropolis. His Lordthip Ilia continues indifpofed. The only arrivals of importance !ince my are Lady DOUGLAS, the Hon. Mrs. WALPOLI, and the Hon. Captain KEIINSDY. The Marchionefs of Wet.t.sst.gy lives here in a (late of local feclufion: the neither 'jilts, nor is vifited, but in a very reftrided fence. She has been folicited to befpeak a play; but the excufed herfelf from the meafure, by an afurance that the thould remain here but a fhort time, and did not mean to be ottentatioutly among the public. Qoica took his farewell at the Theatre night, in Vellum, in the Drummer ; and the Dater, in Adele/ lifassmilm; the houfe was tolerably well attended. At Raggett's Subfcription-boufe on the Steine, there has been a conftant attendance of the belt company.—The elbow has been ihaken with its ufual changes of fortune, and one Gentleman is (Aid to be minus a very conliderable fum. Yellerday the atmofphere was rather denk and oppreffive. In the night we had a form of thun der and lightning, accompanied with a night fprin kle of rain. The weather, fince, has been more cool and refrelhing. The harveit has commenced here, under the mof apfpicious circumfances, and Ceres (miles upon Sulk:: the golden grain is falling in all di niftions, ripe, fall, and heavy.

The town begins to fill very fall. On Wednef day lall a grand Mafquerade was given at the Theatre. The receipts far exceeded the expeaa lions of the Manager. About three hundred per fons were prefent. The charaaers were not nu merous. Among the belt fupported were the fol lowing :—Mrs. Spurn as Hope, a very animated mafque, fupported by Rerling wit.

Among the other charaaera were two rival Harlequin ; two Ballad Singers, who did not even attempt to fin g the whole night. A groupe, well dread, Falliy, Prince Henry, Point, and Bard° fiih. At twelve o'clock a (cleft company in fancy drettes entered the room, and then the country dances commenced. An ex cellent band of mufic having been provided, it was four o'clock before the company departed. Among the lateft arrivals are, Countefs of BAH. unmet, Capt. and Mrs. CON iRS, Capt. 0' Dow. HELL, Mrs. AGUILAR, Mr. ROBINS, Mr. and Mrs. Swim, Mr. and' Mrs. Mcuoaumr, and Mr. Ronal+. BOGNOR ROCKS, AUGUST 19.

We have had a vifit from Mrs. FirzuERBERT, Admiral Pavwi, &c. for a couple of days. The moment the arrived, the was waited on by Lord and Lady Srousgorr, the Hon. Mrs. Bur Ls. &c. The London papers have fent the Duchcfs of NORTHUMBERLAND among us; we fhould be very happy to fee her Grace, and her amiable daugh ters; but hitherto we have not had that pleafure. Lady LANOFORD, and the three Ladies . 'f H sH N E, are the life of Bognor, which, confidering we have no public place of amufement, or place of refort, but the Library and the Beach, wants fomething to enliven it. Their Ladyfhips Alembic every evening on the public walk, and quiz the prome naders, from the Peer to the nurfery maid, and from the infant in frocks to thofe in the lag Rate of childhood, in their dotage.—Their remarks are inoffenfive, pleafant, and many of them witty. At my leifure 1 will fend you a Ruing of them. The Marchionefi of Barn is here, with her three daughters the Ladies THYNNE; they affociate very much with Lord and Lady LANGFORD, and the Earl and Countefkof LIMIRICK. Lord and Lady Srourroa, Lady CLIFFORD, and the Hon. Mrs. BUTLER, are moftly cont. panions, but all occafionally mil together. Lord and Lady NEWBURGH refide about a mile from hence, hut generally (hew themfelves in the courfe of the day. Among our diftinguldted falhionables, fbould alto be enu merated, Lord and Lady Boyne, Mrs. and Mr. Beckford, brother to the owner of Foothill; Mrs. Grant, a relative of Ld. Skafklbares ; Capt. and Mrs. Solvan ; Mrs. Levifon Gower, and daughter; Sir John and Lady Mufgrave ; Sir Thomas, Lady, and Mils Peachy; and Captain Dalrympk. To 'hide mot be added many more.

Such is the very airy conftruetion of that favorite refort of every circle, the Royal Circus, that nntwithaanding the new fplendid fpeetacle of Gonfalvo de Cordaw or The Calque of Grenada draws fo vaft an affemblage every evening, to enjoy its interefiing fcenes, which are embellifhed with the litmolf (picador, and the charming ccmpotifions of Rail's • together with the Golden Farmer the elegant darlequin of BYRNE, and the excellent Columbine of Mrs. HELM' ; joined to the Aerial Caner:data, the 'pleating fight of the balloon, and the admired dancing of Mifs ADAMS, there is no warmth experienced by the audience, except that of approbation, and which is (hewn amidfi the moll refrelling coolnefs.
