SA RS FI ELD, Sur geon of the (hip Filhcr, to Mr. Busr.s, dated Cay enne, Nor. zo, It'oo I take this opportunity of informing you of my own titu.ttion, together with that of the (hip Fither, which is as follows : On the sth of November, we law a fail on our lee-beam, ['retching away to the fouthward, at fever in the morning; loon after fhe altered her cuurfe, and bore right for us, and continued the chace until fix the following morning, at which time fhe was within gun-(hot; then commenced an engagement of three hours and a half, but being overpowered, relatantly [truck to la Cur rious curvette, of Is twelve-pounders, • and 180 men. She took us in zo m. South latitude, 3c deg. 3o m. W. longitude, and has brought us into the above : mentioned place. We had a molt beautiful cargo of (laves, all of which were this o day fent afhore at liberty." DUBLIN, JANUARY 20. • Yellerday, in confequence of an order from Go- vernment, a number of reffels bearing the flags of Denmark and Sweden were lei zed and embargoed in this port ; the number thus detained would have been more conliderable,but that twelve of the above defcriptian failed on Sunday night, having, it is thought, received Tome intimation that holtile in tentions were meditating• by our Court agninft the (hipping, of the Northers Confederates. It is pto bable, however, that all or zrofl of thefe will be picked up before they get out of the hill' Chan nel, as a number of fail-failing euttets are out in all direEtions in quell of them. Ycfterday two Danilli veffels from Bourdeaux, laden with wine and brandy, arrived herel—fliortly after they entered the river the infignia of arra, dpe broad arrow, was put on their mainmatts. WATERFORD, JANUARY zs._ Early on Monday morning feven Frenchmen were apprehended by the Feathard yeomanry, and fent to Duncannon Fort : they belonged to the Bougainville privateer, of St. Maloe's, Du's on Captain.---On ThfirfdaY, the Bth of January, they took the Lark, of Lynn, bound to Liverpool with barley, off the Land's end t. and they conveyed all the hands of the Lark (except the cabin-boy), on board the privateer, and put thefe feven men on board the prize, with orders to make the French coax with all expedition ; that night the Lark fprung a leak, when they were obliged to take to the fmall boats and Rand before the wind. Provi dentially they got fafe to land, near the Tower of Hook, after encountering a moft tempefluous lea for five days, without any, manner of refrefhment. They were yefierday efcorted from the Fort to this city, on their way to Cork. GREENOCK, JANUARY !9. The Montezuma, BOYD, from Barbadoes, ar. rived on Satur4ay morning. Arrived this morning the Aurora, Marv's, from Virginia, in act days, With tobacco, and hay. ing on board 2000 bufhels of Indian corn, for his Grace the Duke of AIIOYLN i betides to 6 barrels of hour.—She brings the difa gretable intelligence of the lots of the fliip Bette'', Msatlyts, of this port, from Liverpool for Virginia, with falt, on the middle ground, at the entrance of the Chefa peak. Juft as the Aurora was coming away, the !hip Diana, Luca, from Briftol, arrived, after a paitage of eight weeks; as alto the flu!) Eliza, M , ALtsr la, of Glafgow. To the wellward of the Banks of Newfoundland, (poke the Pomona, Aims, from Liverpool, for New York, out 36 days, all well ; and eleven days ago fpoke the Martha Bland, M'FAILANE, from the Clyde, for Virginia. In the violent gale of wind on the sth infant, the (loop Hannah, of Biddeford, Captain Wt L LIAM Rs wLE, for Cork, with herrings, was driven from' her anchors in Rothefay Bay, and went on (bore, in the evening, on the coaß of Cowall, Argyllfhire, under the houfe of Auchauillen, but was got off with a great deal of damage, and is now lying in the harbour of Rothefay.—To the humane and aftive exertions of JOHN CsmrastL, Efq. of Au chauillen, and thJ neighbouring tenants, who im mediately affernbled, on the Hill alarm of difirefs, with lights, on the beach, is owing the falvation of the vete], cargo and crew. The Captain and creW were taken to Mr. CAMPBELL'S houfe, and very kindly treated, and the whole of the property proteted. la Lord Nissan's anfwer to the addrefs of the Recorder of Excter, on prefenting hint with the Freedom of theTity, his Lordatip obfervedthat in dettroying thetnezny's fleet at Aboukir, he had only executed the orders of thofe who fent him, wlsiola f atane Id burn, fink, and dellroy, wherever he Thag t i meet it. Yeßerday n Court of Directors, and.a Commit. tee of eorrefpondence of the Eafl India Company, was held at the India Houfe, which adjourned to Wednefday next. An affair of honour took place a few days ago, at Ennifeorthy, between JOHN TOTTENHAM, Efq. a commander of a yeomanry corps, in the,county of Wexford, and JOHN CoscsoonH, Efq. of Dub lin, of the attornies corps, in which the latter gen tleman was unfortunately (hot in the firß fire. A duel yeßerday took place between Meffrs. M. and M. on Putney Heath. The ground was meafured in the ufual form, and the two Gentle ' men, after difcharging a That at each other, were, by the interference of feeonds, reconciled. It is a (insular fact that the Government refufts to permit every French Prieß to quit this country and return to France, who is not authorifed by the Bithop of Sr. POL de LeoN. There were fifty prifoners tried at the late Hamp (hire Q , uarter &Eons ; but few of them, Pays a provincial paper, charged with crimes of very deep turpitude. The heavieft kntcnce was that paired upon J.h. Balky and yoly. Rada!: found in p wood called the Hare-warren, in the txtrifb of Wilton, with a gun, having killed a pheafant..— they were ordered to be imprifowd fix months in die alb, and to be publicly whipped at Wilton! I,VIELLIGEN6L. COURT OF Kinrs BENCH, JAN. :3 FIRST DAY OF HILARY TFP tl. Ather the proper officer, rtircuant to the Itatate of the proem King, had read the report re!'pdling the State of Health, Conduel, &c. ui the Convitfti at Wool w lel!, .• _ . • The LORD CHIEF JUSTICE obfereed, that on the &ft dayof the IA term, when a fin:liar Report was read, he had Rated, 'what it was hi:: ditty to date, that a certain complaint had been made that the cloathing furnithed to the Convias on their beim: dilaargeehwas very inadequate to the price paid for it by the public, and that he had citified an quiry to be made at the Secretary of State's office into the truth of that complaint. His Lord'hip read the Report which had been colt to him by one of the confidential lirvants ut diz Crows, in anfwer to that Irmaity, and the refult of this. Rc- port was, that no blame attached on the Keeper ; and, laid his Lordthip, it is the opinion of that in dividual•at lea, that the whole fyitem had better be amended, or perhaps annihilated : I there fore think it fit to fay, that, as far as this is a charge on the Keeper, it does not at all appear to be made out. Mr. Campbell laid he was extremely obliged to his Lordlhip for the lakoblervation he had been pleafed to make, as it completely vindicated hi: character from an attack that had been made upon it. His Lordfhip laid Mr. Campbell had a right to expect it. "It was my duty," find his Lord!hip, to hear the charge made, and to enquire into the truth of it ; but whcn that charge is done away, it is equally my duty to fee that no blame reas upon you." Mr. ERSKINE moved the Court for a Writ of Hab.as Copes, to be directed to Thomas Howes and others to produce Letitia Fletcher, who had been carried away in the most violent manner.- 1 That Lady was of the age of 25, and was there fore capable of judging for herfelf. She had been under an engagement of marriage to a Mr. Manton. Mr. Howes applied to Mr. Manton, and begged he would bring her to the houfe of Mr. Denton, an Attorney, who had no concern in this bufinefs but to prevent violence, and whole conduet on the occafion had been extremely com mendable. It appeared, that on the Lady coming there they talked about the marriage, when the expreffed her determination not to leave London ; and they agaiML whom he moved came there to take their leave of her before they returned into the country. The houfe was loon alarmed by her cries : they forced her into a carriage and four honks, and directed the driver to go to St. Alban's. Since that time there had been no account of this Lady, and the objed of the motion was to compel them to produce her. Lord IC carom being informed by Mr. Ease tea that his affidavits fwore that this Lady was in the cuftody of thofe against whom the application was made, defired him to take the Rule. Mr. Rates moved for a Mandamus to be di. reded to two Magifirates for Sunderland, com manding them to rcaore a perfon of the name of Fortune, to his &nation of Infpedor of Raw Hides at that port. He laid that by the 39th Geo. HI. the appointment of Infpeaor was vcaed in the per lons of two bfagiftrates. A butcher at that place had applied to Mr. Fortune to come and i nfped Tome hides at his flaughtering houfe; he had very pro. perly refufed, there being a place let apart for them to be infpeded ; in confcquence of this re fufal complaint bad been made to the Magiarates, and Mr. Fortune was removed. Lord IC IN VON." Take a Me. I am forty to learn that thefe places are fo lucrative, as to induce people to be at the espence of applying here." John Clayton Weft was brought up in cuflody of the Keeper of Tothilfields Brides ell, in order to plead to an indiament, charging him with forging and counterfeiting certain receipts, pur perting to be figned by kichard King, Captain ; and Matthew Graves, Mafia of the Syrius fri gate, of which frigate the D,:fcndant was Purfer, meaning to cheat and defraud his Majeffy of 571. ts. Rd. being an allowance of one halfpenny per day to the feamen of the faid frigate. 1 o this indiemeut the Defendant pleaded Not Guilty, and was committed to the cliftody of the Marfhal of the King's Bench Prifon. John Horne Tooke, Efq. and Sir Francis Bur- dett, Bart. appeared in Court, and juflified bail for 7401. for a Defendant of the name of Dickie, at the fuit of Matilda Hovel, and Walter Stirling, Efq. by original. • PEREMPTOIIII3. Lord Ktwyom laid it wac It thus early in the term to give notice, that there was a larg,c paper of Peremptories, and that they mutt come on pe remptorily, in the order in which they !tool COURT OF COMMON PLEAS, JAN. 23. This being the firft day of Hilary Term the Court met, but no buliners of importance came before it. During the (hurt time it fat it was principally occupied' in juftifying bail. Thurfday evening a perfon of very genteel 11113. pearance, the maniac we mentioned yefierday, who lays his name is Palmer Hiatt, was taken into cullody at the Queen'atonfe, %Oleic he had feve ral times before Fein troubleforne, coming under pretence of having bufinefs with the Kilo and Pausessscs. At one time he left a letter, to which Lc, on Thurfday, came to d:mand an anfwer. •••• BA It lt, one of the porters, very properly, cleared him to wait, and lent for Sayers, one of the Bow. ftreet officers, and took him into milady. Yefler day he was examined before Mr. KING and Mr. FORD, at Whitehall ; and from the incoherent man ner he anfwered, there cannot be a doubt of his being in a Rate of infanity. He is a man of a very refpeetable family, and formerly refided at Wal ton upon Thames, where he polliffed confiderabla property ; but he is fuppofed to have fquandered st away. He was committed to Totliill-Fields' kidawcll, to be taken particular care of. emnt )11 of recd r:!! 1 - , : Way, f,;:G~ ~~, a !%1t1:1 ~~. „i::~. heft y hi% 1:1 :is bCCI Pte. n in. muft in nd 'nth: wing don I thc ;bitir sa: r r to eon. ered serf ,y of ofelf min eon pur.
