Exclaange..—Dublin I..ondno, is* is. On Saturday we announced that an embargo had been that day ordered on all Pruffian vette', in the ports of this country. The intelligence, when it firft tranfpircd in the City, caufed nn little furprize, and the general Tiellion was—What can have occa honed this ? It was foon made public, that Pruffia, after accepting Hanover, had agreed with France to affift in excluding our commetce from the Conti nent. Not only all the ports of Pruffia are (hut againil us, but all which Pruffia and France can in fluence and cnntroul, fuch as Bremen, &c. &c. We underhand that Hamburgh is already occupied by the Prulßans. On Sunday the 3oth ult. about iota o'clock in the afternoon, a fudden and peremptory order was eons• municated from the Briti(h Vice-Conful. defiring them to quit that place in twelve hours, and the Elbe without delay. This intimation was given in confequence of an official notice by the Pruffiaa Con te!, declaring that all the ports of the Prufiian do minions, and all ether ports in the North of Europe, where his Pruffian Majefy poffiffes any controol, were to be fliut againft Britt& veffels and Britifh ma nufafures. On receipt of this intelligence, which was brought over by Mr. Gloats, Jackson, brother and Secre tary to our Minifler at Berlin, the Order in Council was iffued, of which our Readers will find a Copy in our fief page. The confternation mentioned at Hamburgh by the refolution come to by Pruffia, was very great. The boom which ufed every night to be (hut was on this occafion left open. Some (hips failed in ballall only, one without ballaft ; tome with all the cargoes they bad carried out, others half unladen. So preffing was the order that the Officer of hit Majefty's floop Srz. ' which. in company with a brig cutter, had gone up the Elbe at far as Stadt, to prate& the (hipping coming doves, declared that any veffel left behind, after the given time, he mull burn. Yeaerday eight veffels arrived in the River from Hamburgh. They form part of a fleet of 24 fail of Brit& veffels which were lying at Hamburgh. The greater part of which have force arrived, according to ow Port letters of this day. One of the (hips coming down got on (bore on the Demi& fide of the river, and was detained on account of Come difpute about falvage. Three large Ruffin' Pflsips were left behind, having been completely onrig ged, and therefore unable to get off. In a form fame time ago littera! (hips, five of them Briti(h, were drive% on (bore, and therefore muff be left behind. Heligoland was the place appointed for the rendez. vow, and there the eight Teals that have arrived waited Come time for the Sry and brig, with the reft of the convoy, but not being joined by them they made the bell cf their way home. The reit are /saltily eapated. About a fortnight ago :coo Pruffian troops, with a large train of heavy artillery, pa fed down the Elbe (or Stadt and Cuxhaven. On Monday lafi the mat. ten of tome of the &haft wads landed at Coxhaven, where the Pruffians are employed in railing two formidable batteries, each of 25 pieces of heavy ord nance. On Tuelday they wilhed again to go on (bore, but were refufed permiffion by the Commander of the Sry floop. Great apprehenfions were entertained at Hambnrgh that all &WA) property would be confifcated. It is fated that the quantity of Briti(h property now there is not fo confiderable as it was lately. The Britifh fubjeCts are apprehenfive for their perfonal fafety. It was reported that the whole of the Corps com manded by Marfbal Alio 'WU is on its march from the neighbourhood of Franckfort towards the Elbe. It is even laid that not only Swedifh Pomerania is to be occupied, but Hollein, and every port or place within the reach of French and Pruilian troops, through which Britith manufattures could be intro duced io the Continent, and with which &kith vet fels could trade. Thefe Ipeculatinns, gloomy and difagreeable as they are, cannot be conlidered very improbable after what we have already fern. It is fuppofed that for the prefent the foreign Mails will be fent to Hufum. It is very much feared that the war with the Mah- Tiql St ECt is renewed.

L'lmrsatams is neither named nor included in his line of battle, and he magnifies that of the Englifh to oust! With this immenfe fupetiority, according to the failhful report of this Officer, our vinory, it teems, was hardly earned. It is not difficult to difcover that there are many interpolations in this difpatch. Mo 4 of what is laid refpcning dates, and the numbers of the ene my, is obvioufly falfc, and meant to miflead. On Saturday, about twelve o'clock, his MAJESTY arrived at the Q2een's Palace, in his travelling car riage, where he was received by the his, of Yoex. Soon after two o'clock, Sir JOHN LUBBOCK was in troduced to his MAJESTY by Earl MOIRA, upon his being created a Baronet ; after which his Maissry held a Privy Council, which was attended •by the LORD CHANCELLOR, Earls MOIRA and C AAAAAA 011, Vifcounts Sit/MOUTH and How r cx (Mr -Garry) Lords GINNYILLK and H.

WRIST 115511111, CONTINUED IT ADJOUNNMEIIT TO HORSIBIONCIII,LAVE IN THE 110tOUGH, SATURDAY, APRIL 5. So univerfal was the intereft excited by this trial, that as early as fix in the morning the Salon Houfe war beret by a . concourfe of perform. As the hour approached which was appointed for the opening of. the Court, the impatience of thole who had been fere ral hours in waiting for admittance was Inch, that the numerous Conflables in attendance were fcareely able to preferve a pafrage for the Law Officers and others, to whom ingrefs was allowed; few other per form were permitted entrance, and they confided principally of the Dukes of Suffix, Cumberland, and Orleans ; Lords Portfmouth, Grantley, Say and Sele, Montford, Deerhurft, and Lord G. Seymour; Sir John Frederick, Sir John Shelley, Sir Thomas Tur too, Sir William Clayton, Sir J. Mawbey, Count Wnmnzow, &c. The prifoner, Mr. Patch, was concluded into . Court Conn after nine o'clock, arid took his Ration at the bar, attended by two of three Friends. Precifely at ten o'clock, the Lord Chief Baron Macoom •L*, took his feat on the Bench. So exceffive was the crowd become in the Court at this time, wedged by an a&mblage that preffed at the door ways from the exterior, that it was Tome time before a Jury could be got together. Thofe who were in Court could with difficulty, though aflifted, on an fwering to their names, move towards the box allot ted to them. Mr. Patch. peremptorily challenged three Jurors, viz. M. James Brown, of Batterfea ; John Tanner, of Grove-lane ; and James Kite, of Putney, tailor. The following Jury was then fwnrn : Charles Smith, of Menem . lam Wedge, of Wandfirords • Thomas Daly, of Barnes Thomas Banta, of Merton iJohn Leighton, of Putney George Moore, of Putney ohn Cape, of Putney George Smith, of Putney faac !tiler, of Mudd Dan. Lonvon, Wandfwerda Henry Wood, of Putney Thomas Chapman, of Penny. Mr. Kean., the Clerk of the Arraigns, then limed to the Jury the nature of the indiament. It charged the prifoner Richard Patch, on the z3d of September left, in the parifh of St. Mary, Rotherhithe, upon Ifaac Blight made an alTault,ana with a piliol lhot at him, giving him a mortal wound, of which mortal wound he died the next day, and ft, the faid Ilene Blight, of his malice aforethought;did kill and mur der : to this the priloncr pleaded Not Guilty, and pat bimfelf upon the country. i Mr. Puocar briefly opened the cafe on the part of the prcfecution. A moll profound filence now prevailed, and a very ftrong intereft was excited, when Mr. GAREOVE addrelled the Jury in a moll eloquent fpeech, on the part of the profecution.—They were engaged in a molt awful and important enquiry, which would require their molt particular attention. They were not to exped that he fhould, by reafoning or argument, endeavour to lead their minds to the conclufion which his own mull neceltarily have ar rived at with refped to the prifoner's guilt, but, on the contrary, would attend to the evidence, and con fider what he fhould fay merely as an index to enable them with greater facility to ptirfue it in detail. He proceeded to Rate the relative fit uations in which the deceafed and the prifoner flood to each other. The deceafed Mr. Blight lived in the neighbourhood of Greenland Dock, where he carried on the bufinefs of a Ihip•breaker. In the year 1803 he had for a menial fervent a filler of the prifoner. In the fpring of that year the prifoner came to vifit her, and the requefted her mailer to let him remain in his fervice. He re prtfented himlelf as in difireffed circumflances, and compelled to leave the Welt of England, in confe• queme of a difpute about tythes, and that he would be glad to have any. employment hl' which he could get a living. He engaged in the fervice of Mr. Blight at firlt merely for his viduals and drink ; afterwards he had a falary of Sot. a year, and his board, and then tool. a year, hoatding himfelf. Io 1805 Blight became fomewhat embarraffid in his circumllances, and executed a deed of competition to his Creditors ; but, in confequence of one of them not choofing to fign the deed, it occurred to the deceafed that it was neceffary to mica his property again! his Creditors, who were become impottunate ; and he did that which cei tainly could not be Ilrialy jultified. He pi ep•recl a written in liniment, by which he meant to make the prifoner, then become his bofum blend, the proledor of his property. The manner this was done, was by a nominal bill of fele, a bill of parcels of the Ito oittire of his houfe, and a letter to the prifoner, by which lie informed him that lie would get the City of I.ondnn to renew the leak of his houfe in hi, name. lu July, iBos, Mr. Blight went into the cousitry ; I lint, before he went, he entered into an agreement with the pallier, in which he ilivol.ted that he (Blight) (horrid retire, and the rainier conduet the butirrefs, widt a third (hire of the profits, for which he was to pay 12501. a rum which it fbould feem a man in the ptitoner's then fituation would find a dif. &lilt) , of obtaining. It would be found, in pniot di Ide, that he paid tin more than 2501. and, for the remainder, gave him that which he pallid upon him as efecority for the money. It was a draft cn a Mr. Gon . rn for toool. to be paid on the rfith of Septem ber. He pretended that he had fold an ,Rate in De• Topfhire to Goom, and that this toool. was the per chafe money, which had lain in his hands. W4n the time of payment arrived, the prifoner reprefentrid to the deceafed that Go rm was not in a condition tO take up the note. He withdrew the draft from Mr. Blight's Bankers, in order to fuhftituta another pay able on the 20th. On the t,th of September Mr. Blight left his home to vifit his wife, then at Margate, and of courfe expeeed that the draft would be paid: the next day. After he was gone, the prifoner wrote 4 - , to the bankers, Mars. Willis and Percival, with whom the draft was lodged, Rating that Mr. Goons .• would not be in a condition to face it, and therefore deriving it might not be prefented. On this fame igth of September, a day of vaR importance in she me lancholy feene, the prifoner was thus left at home in the houfe of the deceafed, with no other perfon than Either Kitchener, a female fervent. The family of Mr. Blight, it would be found, ufually (pent their evening in the front parlour facing the Thames. The prifoner was on the evening of the 59th in this room. About eight o'clock lie defired Either Kitchener to go out and bring him fixpenny worth of (liters. She had not far to go, but before the returned this re markable circumflance occurred, namely, a gun or malice' ball was fired through the 'butter into the roona where the family nfually fat. The prifoner jumped up and went to the door, but found nobody there ; he then went to the gate, where he found a man and his wife, who would this day be called as witneffes.— The Learned Counfel Paid, he charged, and be un dertook .; to fatisfy the Jury, that the (hot fo fired on the rods was not the flint of any enemy to any perfon in the houfe, but was fired by the prifoner at the bit . , as the fiat Rep towards the cataßrophe he was medi tating. He &mid demonfirate that it was impoffible for any one elfe to have fired it, fof in the front of the houfe was the wharf adjoining the Thames, and where the prifoner ran firß out to without finding any body. At the gate there was a man and his wife, who would Rate that they heard the report of the gun, but that it was impotfible for any one to have efcaped without their teeing him. die• would thew •hat it was not poilible the gun could have been fired from the river, becaufe the elevation would not have . _ admitted of the ball's (biking the fltuttcr in the di reetion it did. The Learned Connfel then detailed the circumfianees which will be found in • the evi dence applying to this firtt tranfadion. He then re lated, that the prifoner wrote to the deceafed at Mar gate, informing him of what had paffed, and defiring him to return home. Mr. Blight returned to town on Monday the 23d,and the firft enquiry he made was, whether Goom had paid the toool. note? The pri loner led him to believe it was forthcoming, and be went from Deptford to London to procure it, with an exprefs inhibition, on the part of Blight, not to return without it. He, however, did return without the money.—The Learned Counfel having thus far Rated the introduenry parts of the cafe. defcribed the cis ' cumßances which took place on the' . evening of the 23d, when Mr. Blight was Ihot—the manner of coin ' mining the deed—the condud of the prifoner after wards—his behaviour to the perfons who offered their affiflance—his infinuations with refpet to Webfler's fon, or Clarke, being the murderers ; but, above all, he inferred the utter impoffibility of any one but the prifoner having fired at the deceafed. This he made manifeß, not only by Rating the fubttance of the evidence of the perfons who were parmg by the pre miles in various diredlions, when the report was heard, end who law no one efeape, but alto by exhibiting a model of Mr. Blight's bottle andlard, by which it appeared that any one attempting to efcape molt have been dilkovered. The remainder of the Learned Counfel's obfervations will be found detailed in the teflim‘ny of the witueffes—they related chiefly to his demeanour fubfequent to the murder,and particularly as to a pair of white flockings having been found in his bed-room with the fides dirtied, as if by walking pn the timber wharf without (hoes. He alto Rated that a ramrod of a pißol had been found in the privy. He concluded an addrefs to the Jury of two hours, by praying that the Searcher of Hearts, film whom no fives were hid, would enable them to difcharge their duty to the public and the prifoner, by a verdict confonant to the principles of justice. He then proceeded to call the witneffes on the part of the Clown. • Richard Fenn was fiat called. He laid, he kept the Dog and Duck public houfe, near the premifes of Mr. Blight. Either Kitchener brought him in formation of the wound Mr. Blight had received, between eight and nine o'clock of the evening on which the murder was committed. In confequence of this intelligence, the witnefs went to the /mule, and finding both the gates fattened, he was under the neceffity of leaping over them : he then ap proached the door opening upon the wharf, but the witnefs could not charge his memory, whether he found it open or Phut. When he entwed the back room, he law Mr. Blight feated in the arm chair, to the left of the fire place. The witnefs was acquaint• ed with the room which the bullet had entered be . fore. Mr. Patch was (landing there, but nobody etre. Mr. Blight was fitting in the chair, reclining on the arms. Mr. Patch aiked the der:eared, whe ther he fhould fend for Mr. Jones, the ftirgerin ? and• in confequence, the witnefs went for him. Mr. Frntt Raid with Mi. Blight nearly the whole time until he died. He expired feven or eight minu'es after three nn Tuefday, the day after he was wounded. On his croft examination, he laid, that he was fetched by Either Kitchener, and upon his coming into the room where Mr. Blight was, he law Patch, but he was not rendering any affiflance. • Mr. Aihley Cooper, a furgenn of eminence, was in terrogated by Mr. Comae. He Paid, he was defired, about three hours after the wound was received, to attend the deceafed. lie w3b ling on the flour of a room, whicis the witnefs uncle:ll°nd to be called the back parlour. Tice apJrtment being very much crowded, and Mr. Blight being in a very incor,re nient fituation for examination, he ordered him to be
