We have been informed, by a boat jtilt landed, that the dreadful firing on Thurfday and Friday night, was occafioned by the tremendous explofion of the mortars on board the bomb fhips, whiehlithrew the enemy's flotilla into great confufion, and forced the greater part to make for the harbour. Two were driven on (bore difmafted. The enemy fired in all direaions !hot and fhells. We are happy to hate, however, that no lives were loft on board our fleet.

Crew laved. The Apollo, Sri' FINS, from Malaga, had put into Baltimore (Ireland) in diarefs. Friday morning early a man fell from the plat form at Billingfgate, and was drowned. His body was taken up in about an hour, by means of the drag, from under an Eaft India boy. In his pockets were a watch, a guinea, and fume Myer, but no pa pers'to denote who he was. FOOT Race trt Hvns Paax.—The grand match which has been for Come time pending between Grin ley, the boot-clofer, and the Brighton Shepherd, was decided yelterday in Hyde Park—Grinley is well known among the fporting men for I is uncommon fpeed—he once engaged to fight, run, and leap with Berks, the pugililt, for 20 guineas, the belt in the three to win the money. They fought firlt, and Grinley, after receiving one fevere blow on the head, gave in. They next ran too yards, when Grinley beat his antagonift with the greatea facility. Leap ing was the decifive trial ; Becks covered fix yards upon the turf, but Grinley, with apparent cafe, ex ceeded him by half a yard, and having thus won tw o out of the three, carried away the golden prize IA triumph. At eleven o'clock yelietday morning the Brighton Shepherd. attended by his Trainer, Mr. Peck, ar rived at Buekden Hill, whilli the Boot-clofer, and his partizan, were affembled under the trees on the fonds fide of the Serpentine river, in confequence of a difpute having occurred refpeeting the place of fluting, for the Shepherd had been accullorned to the it'd', whereas the Boot clofer wifhed to peg envoy upon the gravel ; they at laft agreed to decide the difpute by tofGng up ; the chance fell to the fon of St. Crifpin, who chose the walk leading to Keating ton Garden Gate. The diaance was 120 yards —1 Upon arriving at the ground, the parties prepared for action ; the Shepherd appeared rather too much to referable the prize mutton—the boot clofer ' on the other hand, was as 'lender a s a wax - en d. At three o'clock they were Railed by Mr. Bailey. The boot-1 &fir made the play, but was loon overtaken by his antagonill—for fume diliance they were neck and neck, and it was " now Shepherd, now Boots," till within so yards of the poll, when the latter took the lead, and gave Mallet Pan a clofir, by winning the race by half a yard ! The rural fwains hung their heads in filent difmay, their oaten reeds were mute ! but the jolly Son, v . St. Crifpin, who had betted theit 14 wages upon the event, carried uff their viaorious brother to the favourite Air of— " A Cobler there was and he liv'd in a Eta." Grinlev ran the tzo yards in twelve feconds and a half, which is one frond mere than the fame dillance was run in the reign of George H. by the Lanca fhiie Hero and the Italian Jew for moo guineas. A damp was thrown upon the amufement of the morning by the accident of a groom belonging to the Doke of GLOUCIPSTER, falling from a tree, by which he unfortunately broke his back, and was car ried to St. George's Hofpital in a dreadful fituation. Itellerday morningbetw - een feven and eight o'clock, a Toot race between a gentleman of Rocheller and a fetjeant of the Guards, for a wager of two guineas, was decided on the road between the Star on Chat. ham Hill and Rainham. The ditlance run was four miles. The Rochefier Gentleman was the winner, be ran over the firLt two miles in twelve minutes and a half, and the four miles in little more than twenty feven tninutes.—This gentleman, we underhand, has been engaged frequently in pedelirian exercifes ) and invariably makes ufe of the very tingular ceremony of flogging himfelf with a (mall riding whip, which, on fuch occafions, he always carries with him while running, and applied the lath with fuch feverity to his legs, that the blood abfolutely trickled down his llockings. FIRES.—On Monday fe'nnight a fire broke out in the dwelling-houfe of Mr. EDWARD BAINES, prin. ter, in Leeds, occafioned by a (park falling um*. ferved upon a quantity of muffins and linen. For lonic time the flames fpread with rapidity, and threa- tened extenfive mifchief; but by the early arrival of one of the fire engines, and the very judicious and alive exe:tinns of - the firemen, and others who at tended, the damage fultained was lets Jealous than might have be apprehended. On 'fllelday evening hill, the warehoure and work flops of Meirrt. Kest r anti Co. wootdaplers and yarn manntaelurer s, near the bottom of Wettgate,Wake• field, were difcovered to be on fire ; and were in two liuttrs entirely burnt to the ground. Wednelday night the exter,live cloth.mill of B. Gorr, EN. at Arraley, near Leeds, together with the whole of the very valuable machinery, was to tally cunfumed. Thurfday morning, about feven o'clock, a fire broke out in the lower flat of the tenement immedi ately to the weft of Virginia.fireet, Glafgow. For tome time it had a very alarming appearance, but by the exertions of the firemen and others, it was con fined to the lira floor. Very confiderable damages WAS done to two Chops fronting Argyle-ftreet, and to a houfc in Virginia•firett. LiIV rivrt iLiC2l4.tcp; .COURt OF KING'S BENCH NOV. ts. THB INC 7 ! FLINT, ESQ. : L, I Mr. GAR ItOW--" I ant under the neceffity , of ap plyingto the Court, for leave to file a criminal in tOrmatien againli the Defendant, for a scandalous polling, and a molt virlent alfault. It was the loft of a quarrel at a public place, of which too many infiances have already been before your Lord !hips; and the Court, under whole animadverfions thefe receptacles of fathion are, will ttoi permit them to be converted into beer garden,. The perfon at whole requefl I make this motion, is Colonel Thorn ton. Mrs. Thornton had contraded a bet with Mr. Flint, to run over the courfe againft that gentlemitn at the York meeting. The flake was five hundred guineas; there was added a nominal engagement of a thoufand more, with a view of attraaing public no tice. After the decifion, Mr. Flint in fi lled upon the nominal, as well as th e fixed flake. Some alterca tion took place between the parties. In confequence of this difference, Colonel Thornton wrote a letter to the Defendant, in explanation. The note was, however, returned unopened, with the words, "No anfwer required," in Mr. Flint's hand, written on the exterior. Subfequently to this time, on the isth of Auguß, a Sheriff's Officer was direded to give a letter to the Colonel, which was accordingly executed, at the fame time Colonel Thornton was informed that numerous copies of the letter had been circulated in various places of public refort. As loon as the letter was fhewn, the Colonel knowing it to bir the hand writing of the Defendant, refufed to open it, upon which Mr. Ireland, a gentleman prefent, who likewife joins in the affidavit upon which I move, took the letter and read it aloud. It was in the following terms ! Cocotace Titoatirost-:-After the numeretu letters which I have addreffed to you, and which have been morbid unopened, relative to the bet of a thoufand guineas won by me, and the manner in which I have been treated, I sow inform you, thst if I do not receive a fatisfadory aofwer by Monday, I Cull adopt the plan that Captain Caulfield did, or perhaps the better method of Captain Mays to enforce the fulfilment of the engagement; and for the due performance of the above I pledge you tny honour. (Signed) After this period the Colonel attended the York lingual races, and while he was fitting among a numerous company of ladies of faihion, the De fendant came up to him, and laid to him in an authoritative tone, Colonel, I with you to go out with me.' Mr. Thornton not defiring to have any intercourfe with the Defendant, laid to him, 'You know I referred you to my attorney, and you have mentioned yours, and no anfwer being returned to my letter, you have precluded me from having any communication with you.' Mr. Flint immediately, with a view of provoking the Colonel, called him a fcoundrel and a coward, and not perceiving that this had any effect, he (truck him acrofs the head and Moulders with a horfe whip—owing to the violence of his proceedings, he injured, in a very fevere man ner, the ladies by whom the Colonel was furrounded. In confequence of this affray, Colonel Thornton and Mr. Flint were bound over to keep the peace by a neighbouring Magiftrate. To thew the malicious fpirit with which this affault was committed, and that it was not dine at the moment of irritation, by the affidavit it appears that the Defendant,previoufly to committing this offence, went to a whip maker's, and required to be (hewn fume whips. On fome be ing produced to him, he laid that he wanted to fee fume that were (lronger and heavier, as it was for the exprefs purpofe of thrafhing Colonel Thornton. By this circumftance the cafe is confiderably aggra vated, and calls loudly upon the Court for interpo fition." Lord ELLENBOIOUGH" In what lltuation is Mr. Flint " Mr. Gassow—" By the affidavits it appears, that he is a Gentleman of fortune ; he is called Flint, Bill." _ . Lord ELLENBOROUCH.--" You may take a rule to chew carafe." Mr. GARRow — " lam afr.tid, my Lord, that there will not be time to ferve it, fo that the caufe may be !hewn againli it before the laR day of term." Lord Etttasoaovcii—t" It mull be drawn up and fetvcd in this term, and caufe can be !hewn againn it in the next. Why are you fo late in your motion r' Mr. Cantina- 4 The trntli is, my Lord, that the cafe has been fume time before me, but on account of a piers of butinefs I was unable to move it ear lier, and therefcre I have been the real caufe of the delay."—Rule granted to thew caufe. THE KING V. BUCK, sect, This gentleman had been convided of an anult upon his kinfman the Earl of Darnley, the circutn ftancestof whicb have been before the public. Mr. ADAM, on the part of the Defendant, faid, that he believed Mr. Bhgh would not be this day called upon to receive the judgment of the Court. Mr. Gaztow—' , I underfland, my Lord, there are very refpeaable perfons who will enter into a re cognizance, that he than appear to receive fentence next term." In confequence of this intimation, the Court di reeled, that Mr. Bligh fooold be bound in cool. and the Earl of Conyngham and W. Dennifon, Efq. were taken as his fureties in 2 pl. each. THE, ICING V. THE REV. THOS. PRIESTLET. M►. ERSKINE, for the Defendant, fail, that he was Counfcl for this Reverend Clergyman, who was of the age of feventy, and who had been convicted of a libel, tending to &Lune the memo: y of a deceafed Gentleman of the name of Syke, by writing a letter to his executors to that effect. The Defendant felt it his duty to file affidavits, in explanation of his con duet, and to inform the Court what mitigated him, at that unfortunate moment, to write the letter which had fubjeCted him to the animadver lion of the law.— He confidered it right to mention it to the Court, as it was fo late in the term ; and Mr. Wilfon, on the part of the prrfecution, might defire that the mat tcrs contained in the affidavits might be anfwered ; the Learned Counfel, therefore, hoped the Defendant might be brought up to receive judgment in the next te: m. Mr. WILSON, on the part of the profecution, that if Mr. Pr ieltley thought it advifable to file fuch affidavit , , it ttutdd be probable that he thoutd require time to anfwcr them, and that he fhould not in the inter val with for his commitment, if the Coin t thould think proper to grant time. Lord. ELLEN3MUL;II.O.4I If the Defer.datt is per muted to 'he at liberty, he mall enter Into a recugnf. zance in cool. to appear next term." THE KING 4. RICHARD SADDAM THOP.WHILL, PSQ Thisgentleman had been conviacled before Mr. Baron Gaitio am at the left Affizes for Somerfetfhire. held at Bridgwater, of writing a letter, ,intended to pro- . voke Thomas Champneys, Efq. to fight a dael. The Defendant is a Captain in the Mendip Cavalry. It appeared, from the report of the Learned Judge at the trial, that the Defendant had proceeded with a Clergyman of the name of Robinfon, to (hoot in a wood belonging to the I'rofecutor, without having obtained any.previous permit - lion, In their purfuit , after game they met with Mr. Champneys' keeper, who begged them to defili. Inflead of paying any attention to this requilitian, the defendant prefented his fowling-piece, and held it within twelve inches of the man's brealt , but a perfon coming to the OM,. ance of the gamekeeper, they fucceeded in forcing the defendant and his companion to leave the manor. —ln confetzu.ence of this intru4on, Mr. Champeis wrote a letter to the Defendant's Cnmmand?ng oi - - fleet, which Mr. Thornhill confidered offeluive to his petfonal feelings, and therefore fent a note to the Profecutor, tending to induce that Gentleman to fight a duel. By the affidavit of the Defendant it was (hewn, that the gamekeeper had behaved in a very infulent manner : he abufed. Mr. Thornhill in the inoft vulgar terms, and threatened that his Matter, Mr. Champ. neys, fhould write a letter to the Duke of Yen k, and that the defendant (hould be difctiarged trom the re. giment. Affidavits to charaEter were produced from Sir John Keene and James Anthony Wickham, F..fq. officers, in the fame regiment. • !Adis. ESbiCIN a, JEKYLL, and BELL, rn the part of the Defendant, Paid that their client had at all times (hewn a fenfe of contrition far his crime, and it wa.. fume punilhment to a gentleman that he was obliged to exprefs it. He had bean grofsly infulted by a per fon much inferior in rank, and they hoped their Lordfhips would think that he Rood bef re the Coort confidering the circumflances of the cafe, in a very favourable point of view. Mr. Serjeant LENS, Mr. Nswarmr, and'Mr. Cot.. TON, for the profecution, repli e d, th at if to ex p re f a contrition for an offence were a punifhment to a gen. tlemari, the Defendant nn that ground had fuffered very little. He had committed a flagrant offence againa the liws of his country, which called for the revere animadverfion of the Court. Mr. Janice Guist gave judgment tipon the prifo ner in the following terms : " Taking all the circnmflan'cer into our confide rafinn, this Court cloth order and adjudge, that you pay a fine to the King of col. be committed to the cultody of the Marthal of the Marlhalfea for three months, giie fecurity for your good behaviour, yourfelf in 3001. and two fofficient ftireties in• each, and that you further be imprifoned until fuch fine be paid, and filch fecurity be given." THE KING THOMAS iIkTAN. Thomas Bevan, for receiving 181. ifts. for permit ting fame falt to go duty free, for curing.atli, was brought up to receive judgment. Mr. Jußice GROSE,. in paling fentence up - in this perfon, animadverted with peculiar force on the heinous offence of which he had been conviaed.-- - -• " It is not, as in molt cares, (raid the Lcarned ' Jude,) where the Excite Officer is reduced by the' illicit trader, but it is where the Exciie Officer, after loch fedutinn, participates in his guilt." The Court dire led, that the Defen3ant be imprifoned in the common gaol of Hereford for fix months, and durA.l that time that he thould Rand in the pillory once, in the market-place of that city, on a market day, for one hour. THE KING V. ticii•ati WIEN, JAMES ILADDAR, ANti RINJAMIN RADDAR. There Defendants, who were all Volunteers, at Bodmin, in Cornwill. were oleo brought up for judg meet, having been convieted cf a violent riot and affault, again( a Lieutenant 01 the Navy, and fume Marines, who came to feek a (keener, as mentioned particularly in our papa of Thurfday Mr. Juice Gaoss obferved, that this was a very violent and outrageous riot againtt pertlins author ih. ed by law, to perform a very neeefear y service in the time of war, that of recovering a dcitrter. Mete Defendants, who had been cm-titled with arms in their hands for the defence of their country, thotild have . been the tall to violate the iv:vs of it. He hoped, that none of thole balls which whittled over the headt , of the flying officer and his men had been aimed at them, for, if they had fired 41 ti!rai, whether they woundA any of them or not, the offence would be ca pital and in cafe of any of them being killed, it was fit that all concerned thould know, that they would all be equally guilty of murder. The tempei and moderation of the party thus attacked was highly tommendable, and GOD only knew what might have been the confequence had they acted otherwile. As the Cafes of the Defendants were able, Lenien having taken the moll alive part in the bulinefs, the Court ordered, that he fhould be 'mutt coned in the common gaol for the County of Corn wall, for the fpace of two years, and the other De fendants, for one year each.
