The following extract of a letter, bearing date the sight of the 19th inst. has been received by the Tartar, which arrived on the 24th at Falmouth, from Coronas, in 3 days :—" We have bad a very severe contest here ketween our garrison and inhabitants and a corps of the French army, which advanced against this place on the 15th and i6th ; after leaving driven in the forces, we bad marched• oat to oppose their progress. On their apo proacking the works they were received with a Omen. 'loos cannonade, which did them much injury; and be. fore they could recover themselves, the garrison made a desperate sally, and some severe fighting ensued, which cost the French upwards of 600 men. The cannonade was kept up during the whole of the 16th with great spirit, end during the 17th the French made several attacks, which were repulsed by the garrison with gnat slaughter. I nleading the sally on the 16th, Sir Robust Wilson bad his horse shot under him, and before lts could be remounted, received a wound, which, however, is not of a serious nature. On the 18th the French commenced a very furious bombardment, whirls, how., ever, was not attended with much success, while the OW of the garrison being well directed, killed and wound a number of the enemy. Since that period the Freu d have withdrawn farther from the reach of the cannon, and bare been employed in conveying away their, wounded.

Though the spot was a most secluded one, and the person that found it a very poor man, be immediately made the circumstance knows, and brought the money to the cearest respectable farmer. The scrupulous honesty with which, in this, as in the other 29 eases, all the property of the unfortunate sufferers found was given up, entitles the poor fisher men to more credit than usually belongs to that class on rocky and dreary coasts.—(Linerpool Advertiser.)

THE LATH OtHERAL SIR CHARLES ARGILL, BART. Sir Charles Asgill entered the service on the 27th February, 1778, as an Ensign, in the Ist Foot Guards, and obtained a Lieutenancy, with the rauk of Captain, in the same Regiment, on the 3d February, 1781. He went to America in 1781, joined the army under the command of the Marquess Cornwallis, served the whole of the campaigns, was taken prisoner with the army in October, 1781, at the siege of York Town in Virginia, and sent up the country, where he remained till May, 1783; at which period all the Captains of that arm were ordered by Gen era l W as hi ngton to assem bl e an d draw lots that one might be selected to suffer death, by wav of retaliation. The lot fell on Sir Charles Asgill, and he was, in consequence, conveyed, under a strong escort, to the place intended for his execution, in the Jerseys, where he remained in prison, enduring peculiar hardships for the space of six months, expecting daily that his execution would take place. Sir Charles was unex p ec t e dly re l ease d hi s con fei finement by an Act of Cong r e s s, p asse d h e interces sion of th e C ourt o f F rance . H e return to Enkland on parole, and shortly after went to Paris to make his acknowlegments to the Queen of France, for having saved his life. He was soon after appointed Equerry to his Royal Highness the Duke of York, and after gradu ally obtaining promotion and other appointments, at tained on the 4th ofJ nue, 1814, the rank of General. The balloting and enrolment fur the local' militia is suspended, by an order in Council, for one year, from the 16th of this month. OnTsesday morning three squadrons of the first rexi meat of Dragoon Guards, under the command of Major Turner, at present in Piershill barracks, and two pieces of flying artillery, were reviewed on Portobello Sands, by his Excellency Major General Sir Thomas Bradford. —The regiment went through various msnaravres and charges, which they executed in the most masterly style. A detachment of the Royal Horse Artillery, under Lieutenant Harding, marched from Limerick for Island Bridge, on Monday last. The nth regiment has marched from Buttevant to re place the 2tl battalion of the Rifle Brigade, quartered in Kinsale, .Macroom, &c.

Mr. HUNT.—We mentioned in our last that Mr. Hunt had arrived isiChaelar,ssa a visit to Mr. Harrison, a pri• saner in oar castle. It was, it seems, a visit of charity, Mr. Heat being the bearer of subscriptions raised in Birmingham. for the prisoner's relief. The last Ches ter Chronicle is in eestacies that the opportunity was seized by a party of tradesmen who met together at the king's Arms Kitchen (more commonly cOia" Mother Hall's) to decoy Mr. Hunt into their goodly company, for the purpose of insulting him. A letter was written as from a party of Reformers, requesting the honour. of his company ; and this not answering the purpose, a second letter, still more urgent, was dispatched, which Mr. 'Boot, in his ignorance of the choice spirits of Mother Hall's,good-natoredly acceded to. Upon his arrival, the gentlemen of Mother Hall's commenced their sport, and proceeded to heap the grossest insults upon the guest they hid so importunately invited. The details of this sallemanly transaction are given quite con amore in the Oironicle, pretty much as one might expect, where the hero becomes the .reciter of his own glory. There is, however, one portion of the tale untold, or infinite re lish, and showing the fiat hof this exquisite joke. Mr. Hoot having withdrawn from the assembled wits of the kitchen, returned to the Albion, and retired to his owe room, into which he was presently pursued by one of the kiteheners, and assailed by the most loyal vitupe ration,. As it happens that Mr. Hunt is under recogni sant:es to a large amount to keep the peace, his reply to this spirited attack from the master of Mother Hall's ceremooiesewas an appeal to the bell, and a request to the in-coming landlord to clear his room of intruders. — This was accordingly accomplished!—lf any one Id be inclined to quote this transaction as a specimen spirit of Chester, we beg they will add thi ther Hall's, not a single individual, of any has been found to speak of the outrage tempt and disgust.

POLICE. Bow-mum—Sir Godfrey Webster, the Baronet al laded to in our previous statements of the case, came once again to this Ace, on Saturday evening, accompanied by his solicitor, Mr. Rowley, and on this occasion by Mrs. Saunders, the poor woman who made the application to the Magistrate on Wednesday last, for the recovery of her daughter. Sir Godfrey Webster, addressing Mr. Mlxstiou., said, he had already given a formal contradiction to the accuse- Wow that be had seduced this poor woman's daughter, and that denial he now repeated in her presence, and she her self was prepared to admit that she had no other ground than mere surmise for charging him with the fact. lle felt much fur the distress of the poor mother, and to show that he entertained no fear of any disclosure from the daughter which could affect him at all, he was ready to give ten guineas to any officer who could find her out and restore her to her mother. . _ Mrs. Saunders, In answer to some questions from Mr. Rowley, admitted that the only reason she had for charging Sir Godfrey with the seduction of her daughter, was the knowledge of her extreme fondness for him, and the cir curn§tance of her having left Chichester the second day after the departure of the baronet. She knew not whom to charge with it now ; all she wanted was to see her child. (Here the poor woman burst into tears.) Mr. MINSIftn.L said she should have the assistance of an active officer free of expense. Mrs. Saunders--Goa bless you, Sir! that is all I want. Sir Godfrey Webster repeated his determination to give the officer who found her 19 guineas, and remarked upon the hardship of having been proclaimed to the world as the seducer of a girl of whom he knew nothing except by re port. It was by report only that he knew of her having left Chichester with mountebanks. Ituthven, one of the principal officers, was desired to make diligent search for the girl. THANES POLICII.--•On Saturday, John Castles was again brought up from Cold Bath Fields, under a charge of attempting to murder Captain John Clarke, of the Honourable east India Company's service, and folly committed for trial. UNION HALL. —The toll keeper at Kennington turn pike *as summoned before ,the Magistrates, for having demanded the sum of three pence from a gentleman, un der the following circumstance :—The complainant hav ing to call at a house only p few hundred yards beyond the turnpike, thought it unnecessary to drive through, and stopped a few yards from the gate, intending to alight and walk. The defendant went up to him, and demanded the sum of threepence for " the passing through" of his horse and gig. 13 was in vain that the complainant represented the impropriety of making &demand for what had never occurred • the turnpike man insisted upon it, althoUgh' threatened with the penalty affixed by Act of Parliament. Thedefendant appeared with the Act of Parliament in his liana`, and endeavoured to torture a meaning out to his achontage; but— • Mr. Swazis' told him that he had no right whatever to make the demand. It appeared, however, that the toll keeper bad acted from a mistaken view of the Act, and he was desired not to repeat the offence, to pay the expenses incurred (4s. 6d.), and be discharged. Having copied from the Morning Chronicle of Tues day the statement referred to in the subsequent para graph, we readily give insertion to the following AXII INN, A LDCRUANBURT.-•-•WO have been called on by Mr. William Miller, who has kept the Axe Inn, Alderniatiburyi for some time, to contradict a statement is a Police report in the Chreouide of Tuesday the 2 , 2 d instant, that " the Axe Inn, Aidermanburv, is the house of resort in London for the adventurers front Ireland, who come to this country to trade as hawkers.

Nothing doing in Barleys. Oats ate a dull sale. In Peas and Beans no alteration. Noawicu, July 24.—We had a very large show of cattle at Market on Saturday, and some in fine condition; hat few buyers attended, which caused a dull site. The sheep pens were also well filled, and lambs were in gnat plenty ; but the sale of them were very slow and at a little reduction in the prices of last week. The pig market was very thin. and pigs appear to be a little more in demand. Horses were but few and ordinary. LYNN, July 91.—1 n consequence of the con'inued un settled state of the weather, we have had a better sale far Wheat to-day, and the best qualities are dearer 21. and 3s. per quarter, but the trade was by no means brisk at this ad ♦ance. In Barley there appears nothing doing. Oats and Beans dearly as last quoted. Flour the same. At Kenninghall Fair on Friday se'nuight there was a large quantity of sheep and lambs ; bet the business done was ehlefly between jobbers. Fat lambs obtained a rood price, the best lot brought 19s. and one psreel of half-br:d stock ewes sold as high as 20s. a head, Cow stook of a good description went off well ; but the horses were gene rally inferior, and were for the most part taken home again. At Swaffham Fair on Monday last, a great many lames were penned ; but the trade was a very dull one ; the gene ral prices appear to have been His. and 17s. One flock grown at Sweffham was sold previously to the Fair for 1.0;., but 118 s. 6d. seems to hive been the tip price subsequ. ntty, and only one pen was heard of which sold so high. Indeed, the growers for the most part sent their lambs home again, ■s they would not submit to the fall. In Neat Stock, of which there was a great s'•ow, little was (bite s and that lit tle on lower terms. There were no good Nag II braes, and ordinary ones were cheaper. The Wool Trado was much the same as at Thetford, though some thought it not 13 good. _ WA rtneoets Assisss —John Scully, rattier a y Inn 4 man, but a man of singular distinction in the ,Netv g ee Annals of this neighbourhood, was arraigned on a charkt of having stolen from John Hanlon a sheet and a hat on the 29th June, and on a charge of having stolen various articles of clothing from Patrick Doyle on the stincee,l - day.

The coachman and a clergyman named, we hear, Atterbury, were then thrown from the box; and the coach falling on them with the accum lated weight of four inside passengers, in a mom an crushed them to death. Most of the other passengers received severe injuries; and one of them, we bear, died this afternoon. Those who were not able to go forward were removed back to Leamington, where every kindness and medical aid was given them whirls their unhappy situation required. A Coroner's Inquest will immedi ately sit on the dead bodies.

CORN EXCHANGS, JULY 2S.—There were very larg.i arrivals of all descriptions of Brain last week, but the fresh supplies of this morning are not considerable.
