The moll important article in thefe papers is the Speech of the Burgomaller Vex Hess er, on the new derrand of the State Direenry tar a contribution front cap•tal and income, which caries, in the moil me lancholy point of view, the wretched Hate of tl►e Dutch finances. The entire defirudion of, and blot• ting out from the lilt of Nations, the fpeaker lays, is the tecompence which the United Provinces have re• eeived for the immenfe facrifices they have made in order to defend their freedom and independence, and he treats the demand of the new tax as being folely founded on the alledged extreme neceffity of the State, which he confiders as refulting from a total flacnatiGn in every Department of the Government, from the infurresion both of the army and navy, and fr , rri gen::::1 bankruptcy.

It was pre vioufly underltood that Lord Chief Jullice Downss and Mr. plaice DAY differed, and Mr. Plaice Os- INL, being perfonally concerned, did not attend. The Court determined to hear two Counfel on each fide. Mr. M'CARTNEY, in an argument of two hours, contended, that the arrefl was not valid, and that M r . joflice JOHNSON ought to be difcharged without bail. The reit of the day was occupied with the argu• ment of Prime Sesjeant &tows v. upon the other fide. The Court then adjourned to Monday lift, when Mr. CURRAN was to be heard for Mr. Jtiflice JfIHN a, N. and the ATTORNEY GENERAL againit him; after ult;cs, it was expelled, the Court would give judg r.sent.

'''' •-•---- terwarda rrcognized for thZ BIM Dx. CAMP. daughter of Balthazar -3 PLOT. The Duke d'Aranda, a Spanith Grandee of family and fortune, having fixed his affeetions on Juliana, the daughter of Balthazar, a wealthy Painter, marries bar. The exceffive pride and hzughti nefs of Juliana, however, which he has experienced during a long courtfhip, fuggefted to hint a (theme for the reformation of her wayward difpofition. This he puts in praCtice immediately on his marriage. He conveys his wife to a fequeftered and ruinous habi tation on his Country cßatc, and awning the name and habit of a peafant, declares his former condudl only a fuccefsful impoflure to olatain poffeffion of her ; declaiming the title of Duke d'Aranda, whom, the better to colour his contrivance, he once, to be per fonated by a do:nettle, named Jaques. TLe lady, indignant at hav ing been fo impofed upon, makes an attempt to efeape, and lays her complaint before the pretended Duke, w ho, after hearing her Rory, adjudges her to her huthand till the expiat ion of a month, when, Otuuld the retain her defire. the (hall be at free liberty to quit him When, however, the time has elapfed, the endeanutnts of her huf band, intermixed with a little wholerome arperity, effeCt fuck a change in her eontluet, that the abfolutely refufes, cvsn when her father arrives to tarry her home with him, to trait her fituat This produces a new appeal to the Duke on the part of Balthazar, when d'Aranda, appearing in his proper eharlaer, clears up all mittakes, and, Juliana's reformation being complete, reltorcs her to the rank he had fo long withheld from her. The LINDER PLOT turns chid!) , upon the paflhn entertained by a kennel daughter of Balthazar for Rolando, an ( h in the Army, and a profelfed woman hater. To gain his aßeclion,thc lady dif guiles herftlf in male attire, and follows him as his Page, under the name of Eugenio. After Bane time the dee:leery of her fez induces Rolando to recant his errors, and ;mud her with his Istnd for the eonitancy of her affection. • Of there flight materials the Author, who, we 11 , 1- derltand, is deceafed, has contlruded a pleafant Co medy. It is, however, altogether made up of imita tions of charafters which we have Peen before, par ticularly in the plays of Shakelpear. the Duke and juttanl are evidently Petruchio and Katharine in a new• situation. The others are more faintly deiineated, but are drawn from the fame inexhaullible fource, and even the Ityle and manner of uur great Bard are imitated with confiderable fuccefs. The language is in many inftances extremely beautiful, but fometimes overloaded with ornament. The humour is chalk, and the wit fprightly : upon the whole, we were very agreeably furprifeci with the performance throughout, having been given to understand that the piece had been thrown by on the Prompter's Ihcll for neatly two years, during which period it is well known what in ferior fluff has been impofed on the town ! A well written Prologue, but rather too long, was delivered with " good emphafis and difcretion," by Bartveav, and an Epilogue, which turned on the title of the new Comedy at Covent Garden to Rule a Hufband, and hoping the ladies would make The Honey Moon as fucceldul, was admirably fpoken by Miff DECAMP. The applaufe bellowed upon the per formancethroughout was very liberal, by a crowded, and rather elegant audience. Much praife is due to the Adors for their exertions. COVENT GARDEN.—MaIIer BETTY, at this Theatre, performed Frederick kW night, to an audience crowded in every part, and one of the molt fathionahle which h.: has yet attraled. In the Prince's box were his Royal Highnefs the Prince of Weeks, the Duchefs of DAVONS HIRE, and one of her daughters, and Lord ' and Lady CARLISLE. In other parts of the Houfe were— The Marqui4 and Marchionefs of Abercorn, and family, Dukes of Cambridge And d'Orleans, Lords Duncannon, Spencer, Gren• c • :1' Romney, and Langford; Ladies Romney, Langford, Villiers, 3cvcrl , r, Tr.rpeth, and Harriet Cavendifh; Mr. and Mrs. Fox, and a very hc.

Few of them lived more than thirty-fix hours after the attack. Lai week a difference arifing between one Han. cock, a lawyer, at Barnilaple, and one of his neigh bours, a battle enfued, when tlte former received a blow from his antagoniit, which killed hint on the ipot. The Corontt% InTiclt fat on the hady the next day, and hi-might in a verdict of Wilful Murder, in confequence of which the unfortunate man wa, committed to Exeter Gaol. A melancholy instance of the effeets of giving way to palFiun, occurred at the ise,giniting of this week— A perfcti, who has for ma ny )elr , ltood high at the Corn and Fiour Nt.ok.!t, being at his wharf at the 1 , Surrey licit of the 'I itarnc-, and thinking he hat caufe to he angry with a rcTion in iris erno,,y, him fe‘et ely, and was aill,:eted tauntingly by tie man, who, it appeared, did fo from cctif‘ious inno cence—this I. i irritated the mallet . , that he ran into his counting-houfe, and took a bayonet, which he plunged into the body of the man with fo fatal an effect, as to caufe his instant death. The perpetrator is in cultody to await the Coroner's Inqueft. During a late tornado at Jamaica, there was the appearance of a large globe riling and defcending in the atmorphere, occationing very violent con volt-ions in the earth, and accompanied by a loud noife :—it prefently refembled a water- fpout, but no water fell ; and in its progrefs, which was from the North-eatt to the Southward, it emitted frequent flathes, with a thick black linnke, and a noife like the report of a cannon. It was viiihle about an hour, duting which time, although its force was loch as to tear up the largell trees, it did not extend beyond a mile in the pArtfh of St. Elizabeth, Black River, when difappeared. 111.1 RIC-L A v I?.

They are all highly impreffed with fcntiments of gratitude and refped for the hofpitable, and friendly reception they have received at this port from the Admiral, General, and Field Officers, and Gentlemen and Merchants, dining about at priv tte houfes almoft every day. The PRINCE of PEACE, in his violent declamation againft this country, when be talks of the Spanifh failors and foldiers being forced into our fervice, or on refufal confined in noifome dun geons, would have done well to have informed himfelf more accurately on the fubjee, before he ven tured to commit himfelf in the eyes of all Europe ; as the Spanifh foldiers and failors have been at per fee liberty, under the controul of their own officers, to come afhore wheneser they had leave of abfence of coutfe, war being declared, they will in future, like other prifoners of war, be placed in prifon (hips for fccurity, with a daily and ample allowance of beef, bilbuit, bread, and beer. Indeed, very much to the credit of the Spanifh officers, they are feelingly fenfible of all the civilities they have received during their refidence here for feveral months pall. ' This day Capt.
