T r -.Fl:fort Papershave reached us this mornin g , t o , I t h e is,' bias They contain, however, no news from Li• quarter of a political nature ; and as they do not fail:e !, any agitation in the monied market of that 1 5 ,-, 7 Vacing City, or once mention the rapid passage of i t 're. iers through it from one place to another, it may be ' to ,pored from this omission, that our armed interposi , :ire') in favour of Portugal, has produced but little len- ' , T •, In in the German States. This chews that our policy i t sivcrsally applauded there, and that the success of oti i eff,rts to relieve that kingdom, from the evils of we and faction, is as uniformly apticipated. The G e . -I, k ?s are a moral, enlightened, and re fl ecting p ro : -: f and whilst they justly appreciate the hu sttro and good faith, which have induced the f,3overnaient to step out of its usual course " I;lal e , Arty know that it is too prudent to t, • -ash step, and has too great a commaftd of re so!., c, to be much alarmed as to the issue of its prompt and c • :rgetic intervention. Besides, they ale tog free from the gross prejudices, selfish views, and angry passion% which have so much contributed to mis. lead t h e judgment of a certain class of men in a at .1 neielbouring country; and this is the reason that our conduct at this time, as well as our means, are so . d:fferently estimated by the great majority of e Germans, and by a small fraction of the F•encti. It is unnecessary to say which of the two estimdres is the more correct; but this we fearle•sly assert, that if the present Government of France were to adopt the antipathies of that portion of its subjects, which has raised the war-cry against this country, it wcuki be an instance of infatuation almost without ex am, le, and the sure precursor of some frightful calamity. tk . o. see with great pleasure that the accounts in these Papers relative to the King of PRUSSIA, are as lavou , able as could be well expected.

A Rose had kind the morning beam, And own'd the genial ray,— No sweeter lower, by shade or stream, 'Ere woo'd departing May ! Still smiling, as the noontide heat F.zpoe'd its gentle form To every idle insect's greet That braid the sultry storm ! A vagrant Bee with wanton wing The teilder leaves oppress'd,— And toil'd, like many a viler thing, To wound the spotless breast ! Th' insidious spoiler stor'd his thigh, And ply'd the deadly smart All wreckless of th' instinctive sigh, That spoke the bleeding heart ! To some Life's a long summer's day, To some anight of pain— The Bee retrac'd his flowery way; The Rose neer smiled again ! Thus guilty man, with treach'rous art, (Sweet Virtue's flowers, beware !) Can rob the unsuspecting heart, And leave a canker there !

TbiS was originally a suit for wages, brought by mariner named Allick, against the owner of the ship, tor a voyage flora London to New South Wales, thence to Batavia and back, and thence to London. In the ship's articles was inserted a clause, which stipulated that no mariner should be entitled to his discharge, Until the vessel returned to the port of London, and was safely moored there; and that no mariner should be entitled to his wages until the cargo was discharged, or within twenty days after the vessel's return. Allier however, quitted the vessel the day after , her return to London,and on the tenth day arrested the shipowner for his wages, whiCh the owner, being dissatisfied with hi conduct on the voyage, ref used to pay before the period stipulated in the articles. The cargo was not wholl ' discharged till the nineteenth day after the ship's ar 'rival, when the balance of wags was tendered to At lick's proctor, who accepted it, reserving the question ,of costs, which now came on for argument. Dr. LUSAINGTON, on behalf of the owner, contended, that agreeably to the contract, the mariner was not entitled to his wages before the period wheh they wen actually paid to him ; and therefore prated the Court to condemn the mariner in costs. Dr.Jatiretta,on the part of the mariner,argued that the conditions of the articles were unreasonable,inasmuch they gave to an owner the power of carrying the seamen with the vessel to all parts of the globe, making an hour, absence from the ship a ground of forfeiture of wages. He contended, that the mariner could not have under. derstood the extent of his contract ; and as the other seamen had receive) their wages, it was natural for hit party to conceive himself equally entitled to his. The Coos? were of opinion that under all the circumstances the cue, the mariner was justified in the line of conduct he had adopted, and condemned the owner in costs. A Board of the Lords of the Treasury was held, yesterday,it the Treasury Chamber. It may serve to allay the apprehensions of , our mer chants connected with Oporto, to state, that two ships of war were, long since, dispatched by Ministers to that port, in order to render whatever protectiow and aid to the British residents and to British property there, which events might require. The young wheat in the South of Devon has, general. a very healthy appearance.
