The difcovery did not take place until three hours after the parties had decamped. Lord immediately after fet off poll in fearch of the fugitives, who were eafily traced, from the circumflance of the lovers having engaged all the poll-bodes between the pl a ce from whence they let out and London. His Lordfhip traced them as far as Whitechapel, where he 101 l the clue; but every precaution, Inch as fearching the mail-coaches, and Rationing proper people to watch on the great Northern Road, have been retorted to.

Mr. ADAM, in a fpeecb of confiderable length, ram med up the evidence, contending that the allegations in the petition were perfealy fubliandated, and con fequently that the votes tendered in favour of Sir Francis Burdett ought to be added to the poll. Mr. Miz:,s opened the defence of the Sheriffs. He infifted that they had no power whatever to prolong the poll beyond the ufual hour on the tsth day. If any of the voters had been 'disf rano bif e d by the re jeaion of their votes, it was to be attributed to their own lade: and negligence in bot coming fdrward fooner. He alfo argued, that Mr. Sheriff Shawd had not given any affurance that, if the Electors %would wait, their titles fhould be enquired into before the v.stes were cat up.—Adjourned. A letter from Corfu, dated December 27, fays. " It may be recollated that in September 18oz, the Mentor, an Englith brig, was funk in 13 fathom water, at the entrance of the port of Cerigo, the an cient Cytherea.. This velfel had ten cafes of antique marble Ratues, &c. on board, fome of them attri buted to Phidias; and, among them, the marble feat of the Prytenee of Athens, all of which are now filb ed up. Deetor Cacuccr, the Britifis Vice Conful at Cerigo, was charged with this undertaking by Lord ELGIN; and, after a (cries of trials, durin4 two years, 1 has fucceeded in the recovery of this ineflussable !Iva fore ; but not without bemg indebted to the addrefs and intrepidity of the famous fwimmers of Calimno, amended with an enormous expence." The following is an extraa of a letter from Bom bay, dated June 7 s—" While cruizing on the Ma labar Coati, in his Majeßy' s Chip Fontana), commanded by Capt. BINGHAM. we took a chaffee maree, wills two fix.pound guns, and lie two-pound (wivels. We Ora difcovered her from the MA head at day-light in the morning, and chaced her till about ten, when being within about three miles of her, and the wind dying away, we taw her get out her (weeps.

She got her guns on one fide, 'and , fired them and mufquetry at us at leaft fifteen times. Our fellows, however, rowed up in the face of it, boarded her (word in hand, exadtly at twelve o'clock; and carried her in five minutes. —lt is fcarcely credible. but it is an aaual that the fiat and fecznd ` French Captains were (hot through their bodies, and, appearing dead, were thrown overboard; but they were after- wards picked up again, and. have fine recovered, as have alfo 'three other Fretichmen, who were bad ly wounded.

We have the pleafnre of announcing to the public that the Tunnel through Blifworth-hill, near North ampton, was yefltrday morning completed. This Tunnel is nearly two miles in length. and has been one of the greatea difficulties the Qrarid . Junflion Canal Company have had to furmount, in executing their national undertakings. When the laR length of this Tunnel was completed, the effeet of the light was fingularly pleating ; it appearing to refemble a beautiful Rar. We heartily congratulate the public on the completion of this great and important work, which promifes more public benefit than any thing of the kind that has yet been done in the kingdom ; as it opens a dire& ihtercourfe with the Metropolis, by inland navigation, from the northern, , nortli-eaf: tern, noith-wellerup and midland Canals, and Mann. fadorics. neixasoß cdsTr„r. The entertainment given by their Maws Tics on Monday evening, was certainly the mon magnificent cf any that has taken place 1:1;ce they came to the Throne. It has been in contemplation (ince they firft went to reticle in the Caine ; when his MAJESTY de termined to have, what is generally termed, among good old Englifh cuftonis,a hoof- quarrniv, and to give it in the grandeur ofa Kiag,and not fur the introduc tion of the infant Princes CiuraorTs of WALES, or the celebration of one of the Prince's (the Duke Of CAMBILIDGE) birthday, as has beer. erreneoufly, and without any foundation, ltated.—His. MAJ ST r having this entertainment in contemplation for fume time FA, was the caufe of fo many of the Royal Family's birth-days palling unnoticed; .-A JESTY having determined that their celebration fhould be all combined in this entertainment. Much has, like wife, groundlefsly been Paid about the preparations being under the direttion of the Princefs ELIZABETH. Her Royal Highnefs, no doubt, is mifirefs of feveral of the fine arts, and is extremely tail) , in all her ar rangements; but any perfon, who weighed th. irnpor. tance of this entertainment for a moment, would not have given the management to her Royal Highnefs, when we affert, that the expenditure cannot have colt lets than 30,0001. It may truly be faid it was his MAJESTY'S fete, for, every thing has been done by the direition, and under the fuperintentinnee of; his MAJESTY ; from the preparation of the fitting up of the rooms, to the arrangement fur the company to enter the Cattle. During the time Mr. WYATT was fitting up the rooms, his Majefty had the entertainments in his mind, and gave direnicns accordingly, and. for months pail, Mr. GILRERT, the filverfmith of Lon don, has been preparing a r.;:w fervice of plate, va lued, we underfiand, at between 20 and 30,0001. ; the whole fervice of plate difplayed on Monday night was fupprifed to be the molt magnificent in Europe. Meffrs. HANCOCK and StIEEHFRLI, of London, with a number of affiflants, have been employed for a con. fiderable time patt in hanging the filver chandeliers from Hanover, and other ornaments. Meffrs. Pea- KEIL and PERRY, of London, have for there twelve months been preparing chandeliers and lultre: to the amount of feveral thoufand pounds ; in lad, every eminent manufafturer and artill in London was called in, and no espence was fpared to this kingly banquet. _ _ About a month or three weeks (lace 390 perfons were invited, befides the Royal Family, the Mini. hers and Officers of State. The fame of the magnificence of this Fete having (pi-cad throughout the country, the Earl of WILTOK came to London, from his feat in Lincolabire, on purpofe to he prefent, and others have arrived with in there few days from equally dillant parts. All has been hurtle in London for Tome time with the fancy drefa makers, milliners, taylors, &c. &c. more Co than if it was a birth-day that was approaching. Num bers of the Noble Families hired houfes in Windfor and Eton, and went from London and other parts it; very grand (Lyle, in carriages and fix, with four, five, and its outriders, which was a 11):e certainly very proper for the occafion. His Majeßy determined on having alnsoil every fpecies of amufenzent which is known in this country ' for the gratification, of the tafle of all his guells, con filling of a ball, cards, and mufic. It being well known his Majeßy feldom lifl:us to any mufic with pleafure, but Handel's compolition, the Oratorio of Either was therefore fixed upon as the greatett novel ty of that eminent cornpofer's works. This was the &LI Orates io Handel compofed, and it has not been performed in this country before for thefe zo years; the laft time it was performed was at the Academy of Antient MuCc. The Sta(fordhire Militia and Hoge Guards guard. ed the avenues leading to the Caille, and the polies officers attended at the doors of the Can le, to regu late the coachmen. About level) o'clock the company began to atm ! . ble, and their entrance was condndled witinthe great ea decorum. A party of the Horfe Guards, with two officers, were tiationed from the great hall door. to the top of the firft flight of (lairs, and, as any of the Royal Fa mily entered, or Field Officers, the men prefented arms, and the officers fainted them with their fwords. The company, as they proceeded into the Cattle, were introduced into the Royal Prcfence by their Majefty's Pages, the fame as on a Court day. After they had paid their refpeels to their MAJESTIES, the company proceeded to view the rooms with allonifh. ment ; and as the company increafed in number, the effeet was confidaaably heightened by the brilliancy of the dreffes, added to the fplendour of the rooms. About eight o'clock the Concert commenced. The room let apart for the Concert was the Queen's anti chamber, adjoining the Ball-room, which was illumi nated with two elegant filver chandeliers, holding twelve candles each. A temporary °reheat-a was put up at the end of the room, and the organ, a remarka bly fine toned one, which originally belonged to King Grote°, I. The inftrumental part confifted prince. pally of her_Majefty's band, in their full dreffea. The vocal parts were by Madame Bianchi, Mr. Vaughan, Mailer Gray, and Mr. Clerk, of the Windfor Choir, who undertook the bafs part, by command of his MAPISTY, in confequence of the indifpolition of Mr. Bartleman. The Oratofio finifhed about ten o'clock. All the large Gothic windows of the Callle, round the fqnare, flood open, and difplayed the beauties of the magnificent apartments, luperbly hung with rich paintings, mirrors. tapeltry, and armour, with the rich lultres, chandliers, tide lights. THE BALL was opened precifely at a quarter pail nine, by his Royal Higbnefs the Duke of CAI.:6RIDGE, rind the Princefs of WaLks, to the tune of ." The Weymouth Fete!'
