Prince Arms/qtys is to have his effabliihment fixed during the enfuing Seffion of Parliament, the fame as his other younger brother; and the range of apartments now repairing near the German Chapel at St. James's, is for his Royal High. nefs's ufe. The Honourable MlI Towessan, the 'newly appointed houfekecper of the Royal Palace, in Windfor Cattle, has taken poifeffion of her lima eon, and will refide at the houfekeeper's apart* ments, as loon as they eat be got in readinefs for her reception. The Emperor ALIIMEDIR has made a prefent to Mr. ADDINGTON, within thefe few days, of the value of one thonfand guineas. It is a fnuff box, with his Majefty,'s portrait let round with brilliants. What renders this gift the more eftimabk is—that it is unprecedented for a SoVereign to confer fuch a diftinguifhed mai k of his favour on the Prime Minifter of another country; and there cannot be a ftronger proof of his Imps ial Majefly's friendly difpofition towards Great-Britain; tinder its pre. fent aufpices. The Ruffian Anabaffador has alfo made the ufual prefents from his Court, on the ra tification of a treaty. The Comedy of She Stoop, to Coquet-, and Farce of The Appreati., bare been performed by the Of ficers of the 82d, in garrifon at Port Mahon, for the benefit of the widows and children of foldiers and feamen who fell in Egypt.

Several detachment!, iron; different Regiments in Chatham Barrack!, amounting to 230 men, have arrived at SheerneTh to replace the ;ft Royal Surrey Militia, who have marched to join their Regiment. 'the Northampton Militia, now quartered at Dover, has, within the laft fortnight, received a. reinforcement of asoenen from the Supplementary levies of the county : in confequence of which, two additional companies are immediately to be formed in that excellent regiment. We hear that Rifle Corps are to railed in the Counties of Eder, Kent, and Stiffer, and other Counties on the Coaft. Perfons aceuftomed to the ufe of Fowfing-pieces, and Game-keepers in parti cular, will be extremely ufeful in there Corps. It is undeeflood that the individuals who may compote them, are in no cafe to be called upon to go out of the county to which they belong, nor to leave their refpeaive Parifhes, eecept in tare of aftual Inva fian. A letter from Chelmsford, September is, ram " A large detachment of flying artillery, add a number of ammunition waggons, paired through this place on Monday; sad oh Wednefday - left another detachment patted through on its route for Colchefter, where fi xteen of the toh light dra goons have been ordered to join the artillery corps. The Cumberland militia are expetfted here (hardy. The Eat' Norfolk have received a route, which prevents their palling through this town, as was expeaed. The laft divifion of the Hereford patted through here York on its route for Ipfwich.— The ad Weft York Militia, in three divifior.s, have marched into Colehefter barracks." Wedncfday fe'nnight, the EaR Suffolk Regi ment of Militia arrived at Ipfwich, after an ab fence of nine years, and were mull welcomely greet ed on their entrance into the town. Upon having the bread delivered to them by the baker who con tralti for the troops in garrifon on the Thurfday, it proved fo vary indifirent, that at the evening parade complaint was made thereof. and the baker appearing to anfwer the Lune, he was very rougßh ly and underwent the difcipline of toßing an a blanket in the Barrack-yard, to the no fmall amufement of the military, and a number of other perfons. The baker having exculpated himfelf by throwing the blame on the miller, for the badnefa of his flour, the latter is threatened with the like fummary punitbment. On Thnrfday the Royal Weftminfter Volnn tcers marched to Keritifh Town to fire for a Silver Cup, according to their annual praElice.—They fired three rounds each. The Winner, Mr. Rot, of the sth Company, hit the target every time. The firing did the greateft credit to the Corps, for the target was almoft (hot to pieces.—TheCorps afterwards dined at Kentilh Town. Mr. MOSTY*, the High Sheriff of Denbighibire, nn vi fi ting . the county gaol at R•ithin, laft week. found in tt a poor man, who had a wife and twelve children, juft become a prifoner for a debt a nine pounds ten (billings and coils; when Mr. MOSTYN, with that humanity and goodnefs of heart which retied the higheft hollow on his cha. rhim atter, immecrately paid the money, and liberat ed fr i ntri the horrors of a prifon to the blifdul re ginns of liberty, to tba unfpeakdsble joy of hi* 6..

EAST INDIA SHIPPING. We underftand that the flips taken up this fea fon for the fervice of the Honourable Eaft-India Company, are propofed to be armed as follows : Tho(e marls of z zoo tons burthat, to carry 38 pleas lord pence; each of which is to be an eighteen pounder; twenty-6a are to be mounted on the principal battery, ten to be carried on the upper deck, and two in the after ports, eight feet in length, to fervc as Ran chafers. The veffels of 800 tons, are to carry 3s pieces of ordnance twenty are to be mounted an the principal battery or gun deck, ten on the upper deck, and two carrot:odes, eighteen pounders, In the after ports, to ferve as item clakrs.

The carronadea are to run upon Clover's aiding carriage. The former method of defence in general prat-' tice on board Eaft India (hips was, twenty guns on the principal battery and fix in the quarter deck, and their weight of metal did not exceed twelve and nine pounders, which was very inadequate to the defence proper to be made by (hips of fo re fpeetable a confiruetion and equipment, and hence the loffes which have been fuftained by captures this war, as in the inftances of the limos-, taken at Bencoolen ; the Fatness' Rorat., captured in the Straights of Sunda ; 'Farrow, taken by a pilot fehooner, in the l3ay of Bengal; the RAYMOND, and Woopeor, taken by the French on the Mala bar Graft ; and laftly• the unfortunate Ks* r, off the Sand Heads, by the Surcouff. This laft cap ture was avowedly owing to a want of the means of dcfcnce.

Molt of the firfl families in that place and neighbourhood, and from other parts in the country, appeared on the Race-ground. It was the firll time of a public racing meeting being held there.

Ksag Cofer or the Nigro Slave, at the Royal Cir cus, St. George's Fields, may vie with any produc tion on the Stage, for its imprlifive fcenes, and its numerous embelliihments. The mufic by Mr. W.

As the Town and the mufical world in particular look up to SA DIRSON, the compact, for fnmethin4 extraordinary on the night of his benefit; it is bat fair to fay. that he never deferred the patronage of the Public in a greater degree than he does at prefent, on account of the great variety of Enter tainments which he has been for fome time pre paring to treat his Friends and Vilitars, who mean to honour Mm with their company at his Benefit on Monday evening, at the Royal Amphitheatre of Arts, Armay', Wellminfler-bridge.
