I have the u " (Si gne d) GEORGE PARKER. bo or tO bel Hi, Majesty's ship Stately, off Zealands Odde, March 25, 180(h, Sit —It is with much satisfaction I lave the ho llow. to acquaint you with the capture and destruc tion of the Danish ship of the line, Prince Christian R o deric, of 74 guns. Proceeding towards the Great Belt, i n c ompany with his M a j est y' s shi p Nassau, at tip. M. on the 22d inst. we observed a strange sail ; y i d the signal being made to chace, at four P. M. Greenall on the coast of Jutland bearin7 N. W. by N. distant ten miles, we discovered that it was an oetri r ; and at five P. M. ascertained the chace to be 2 Danish ship of the line. I now saw that it was j evidently the intention of the enemy to run his shipi, es shore ; and as the night was approaching, he might I hope that, in our pursuit of him in the dark, we would have the same fate. This, I have since been assured, 1 o s his design. At 45 minutes past 7 P M. Captain D t opbell, in the Nassau, got up with the enemy, and, anop closed ; ied the action; and in a few. minutes after the c a running fight was now maintained statelY a considerable time, the enemy fighting with g reat tor • o b st inacy, until we succeeded in getting very near, a nd gave some close broadsides, on which he struck et about half past nine P. M. At this moment the s hip s were within two cables length of the shore of i t g an a ; and before my First Lieutenant who took possession of the Danish ship, could cut away her an- , c hor, s he grounded. Fortunately this shi p and the 1 Nassau brought up near to her. Duringahe remain- 1 i n part of the night we were employed t a king out t he !scoffs ; and at day light of the 23d it was j found impossible to get the captured ship afloat, the ' w i n d blowing strong on the shore, and that therefore t he only course I could follow was to destroy her. The necessity for doing this, and for placing our own ships out of danger, soon became apparent, as the Danes were preparing their artillery on the coast, and as our ships were at anchor only two cables length from the beach, they would have done us great injury. After removing the prisoners and wounded, indoing which we experienced much difficulty from the wind blowing strong, and a good deal of sea running, the isemy's ship was set on fire in the evening of the 234 and in a short time blew up. lam happy to say our Vossbasbeen small. It is trifling indeed when compared 1 with the enemy, where the slaughter was great, he having fifty-five killed and eighty-eight woundedi we have, however, received considerable damage in outlasts and rigging. The Prince Christian Fre, (kick was a very fine ship, copper-belted, com mended by Captain Jayson, with a complenlent of ix hundred and twenty men, and had five hundred and seventy-six on board. I feel much indebted to Captain Campbell for his zeal and ability in the coal mencement and during the action, and to the officers, ship's company, and royal marines of his ship. My warmest gratitude and praise is due to the officers and seamen, and the officers and privates of royal marines, of this ship, for their brave and gallant conduct dos- pug the action, displaying throughout the cool intre pidity of British seamen. Tte same spirit animated , both ships. I beg leavelp recommend in the strongest manner to the patronage of my Lords Commissioners of the Admiralty, Mr. David Sloan, my first L ie for to whom I am greatly indebted, not only for his brave and spirited conduct in the action, butalso for his =wearied exertion in removing tile prisoners and wounded from the Danish ship, and setting her . on fire. He possesses, in an eminent degree, every quality requisite to form the offeer and seaman. • Herewith you will receive a return of the killed and founded.

PRINCE of the Fame., he states, had been insulted- by the popu. lace, and had withdrawn himself ; but tranquillity haibeen restored, without any serious events having taken place.

As this very interesting day is now so near at hand , such as have it in intention to heconie adventnrcrs, for a mere trifling stake, for numerous niinsions of high worth, were better not to 'adjourn further the pinking their purchases, as, before the ter mination of the present week, but few Tickets and Maga are likely to be had at any price. , ••••••., . - rOLlC4t9c. .-• Bow-ST=7o—On Monday evening a young man, of very genteel appearance, dined at the Cecil-curet Coffee-house, in the Strand, and gave the waiter in payment a 101. Bank Note. Mr. Cox, the landlord, sent a porter out to get change, who went t o Mr. Burnell, the grocer's, in the. Strand. Mr. Burnell, after examining the note, discovered it to apswer the description of a similar one that had been traced to him by the Inspector of the Bank, a few hours before, and which hid been altered from 11. to 101. This indit i ced him to send for Mr. Cox, to whom he com municated the circumstance. They then went to tl.e Gentleman in the coffee-room, and, after some con versation, he was induced to accompany them to Bow-street. On the charge against him being made known. Anthony took him into a room to search him, and found a pocket-book, containing a 6ve, a two, and a one pOund Batik Notes., with three seven shilling pieces; also a ticket for the Montreil Assembly, for the present year and the next, upon which two ex periments had been tried for making the words TEN in imitation of those used on the Bank, Nytes, in the body of the Note, and at the left corner, with the black ground, In his coat pcicket he fOund a loaded pistol. While Anthony was, searching him, when he spoke, he appeared to have a great impediment in his speech, and the . Officer desired him to open his mouth, which he refused to do ; on. which Anthony seized l,im by the wind-pipe, for Ced him to open his mouth, and took from it a parcel of paper, which proved to be four Notes of a similar descriptipn to that he had offered to Mr. Cox, but in an unfinished state. The large word ONE, at the left-hand corner ' had been taken off by a composition or. some other process, and the outlines of the word TEN, slni/ar to those made on Bank Notes, was substituted.. The word TEN in the body of the . Notes was complete, and an s Was added to the word POUND, equal to the en graving, but the word ONE at the torof the Notes was not taken o ff. The prisoner underwent an examination before Mr. READ. The note which he uttered to Mr. C.2x was produced; it had been cut in two, throth, the word ' " One," at the top of the note, and joined toge&ber by a thick piece Of paper, and three wafers-,one of them 1 was put on the part where the word one" was, at the top of the note, to prevent any appearance of the obliteration of the word. Every person who' saw it Observed, that they should have taken it without sus picion, as did Mr. Burnell, had it not been for the cir cumstance of the Inspector of the Bank having traced ope to have passed through. his handy, and pointed out the alterations. After the Inspector of the Bank had been with Mr: Burnell, on Monday afternoon, he called upon Anthony to givelim inforiiiation of the circumstance, 'and describe the man who was suppqsed to be u ttering them--on the prisoner coining to the office, Anthony found him to answer tie description - given by the Inspector, and which wits the cause of his searching him in such a particulie Manner—sus pecting that he had some something cancesd,edtn his mouth. •Mr. READ asked the prisoner what he had tp say for himself ? He said his name was Richard Holmes, but declined saying what he t was, where he lived, or making any defence to the charge—hut offered to find unexceptionable bail to ant amount, which, of course; could* not be taken-7-and he *as coin foe itted fun* . examination. • MeaLatiiouciu-overir.---A gang Of cpineri and utterers of base money have, for some time past e infes ted the shopkeepers of this metropolis, and, b; an un usual derterity in taking change, 'haVe - Fommuid yo send into circulation a considerable qi_iantitY °ream terfeit coin of various description.

The prisoner, during a long investigation, conducted herself with the greatest confidence, and positively de nied all the facts alleged against her.' She was re manded for a further examination. QuEEN-Soueni,—Yesterday Mary Heywood was . brciugl,t up, charged on, suspicion of stealing a valu able diamond ring, the property of Mi. Harwood at Chelsea, who stated that the prisoner came to his shop on the I VI; of March last; and after having looked it various articles, requested part of thein to be put away for her, as she that afternoon was to receive 1:01, and would come the following day to pay for them; in the mean while the ring was missing, and, from her pot returning according to promise, strong c ion suspi fell upon her. On Monday last Mr. Har wood accidentally met her in St. James's. Earle; she endeatrqured to avoid him, and make off, but was (,on Secured !
