They had left Poi tsmuuth several hoops before their flight w,is discovered, when the father of Miss, accompanitd by a friend, pursued them with all imaginable speed, in a chaise and sour, on the London road. On his arrival ;it Kingston, he met with the post-boy, who drove the lovers to town, who promised to give them every assistance in their pursuit, and told them he drove the happy pair to the Golden-Cross, Charing- Cross; but the father, thinking it the most adviscable to procure the assistance of the Police, drove to the Pubic Office, Bow -street, and procured Adkins and Ai owny. the oiE:ers, to assist him in his pursuit. They went to the Golden-Crocs, but all the in• formation that could he gailuid there was, that the lovers remained ths re but a short time, and went away in a hackney-coach, but no trace could be made of the coach. Hand bills wire accordingly issued, off-ring a reward to the coach man who drove the lovers, to give information where he.= them down. Application was made at Doaor's Csancnons to know whether any -application had been made tor a licence for their marriage ? but - hone had been made. It being stispeaed that appli cation would be made in 0:: course of Saturday morning, several persons were set to watch, with the Bow-street ()slicers; and, about two o'clock. the gallant Officer applied for a licence, when the Officers took him into cuktody, and conveyed him to the father, who proposed, if he would pay all ex pcnre3, he would not prosecute bim—to which the fond lover was rclubtantly obliged to agree, and to tell. that the object of his affections WAS at lodgings in Fludger-street, Westminster; where the fair dam sel was found, and return d, very teluaantly„ with her father to Portsmouth ; to the no small mortifi cation of her affeEtionsie, but disappointed lover. • EAST INDIA HOUSE.. 6 WLDNESDAY, DEC. 19. A Quarterly Court of Proprietors wits helßehis day, pursuant to public notice, for the purple* of receiving the Report of the Court of Direetors on Last half year's dividend of profits upon East India Stock ; and, also for taking into consideration *e resolutions passed by the Court of; Dirocloes for granting an annuity of 3001. a year to Sir Nath. Dance, an for establishing the government of the Prince of Wales's island. The first report being made, that the last half year's diviAertdof profits on stock was ee per cent. ; Sift NATIIANIEI. DANCE. The CHAIRMAN next proceeded to state to the Court, that the Direetors, at their last meeting, had come to the reaolution of granting to Sir Nath /mint Dance an annuity of 3001 a year, in remuneration of his gallimt and important services on the 1501 . of February last, by the signal repulse of the French squadron, under Linois, in their attack of the homeward bound Chine fleet, in the Indian Seas. Ile said, that the g allant and most deserving Gentleman had declared himself perfeCtly satisfied with the provision, and expressed his hope, that it would meet the unanimous Approbetiim of the Proprietors at large. It had been in the con templation of the DireCtors, to reward the ernitient ssevices cf Sir Nathaniel in a different manner, by , giving him the first voyage to such pan of India as ' promised to be the most lucrative; but this Was declined by Captain Dance, who, from his ad vanced years, and ill state of health, was induced le decline this c'ter, and to prefer the provision now stated. Tw.titSie terse to express his warm approba tion of the principle of liberally remunerating so truly meritorious an officer. But, although the Directors, with a lendable attention to economy, in I administering the finances of the Company, had con- tent el themselves with making t provision so very !, moderate in reward to the eminent cervices of Sir N. Dance, he hoped it would not in consequence follow, that the Proprietors below the bar should rest satisfied with a remeneration so very inadequate to the services of a man who had so signally and successfully exerted himself for their interests and the protection of their property. Accustomed as he was, heretofore, to bring forward motimis in that place, in which he had not always the good forma • to have the unanimous concurrence of the elce...ig; and eng teed as he often was in contests, not irdeed with suer as that, so honourable to the g ill sOt and deservieg Officer in question, upon the 15th is! February ; but in the mere war of words, for the maintenance of motions, often unviccessful : yes .n that motion, which be should this day have tle• honour to propose, he ielt it not presumptuous to anticipate the unanimous concurrence of that lioneut dee Court. It was a motion for extending the provieon voted by the IhreCtors to Sir ?la el .niel Dance, on this occasion. (Appiaeur.) Before 'etsit uld proceed to state the precise nature of his mason, he felt it necessary to take a cercise re.respeet of the brilliant occasion from which it eriein tied • This he should do under three i inet heads : !he victory itself—the officers tin e Wein) it was atchieved—and the importance to interests of the Company.

Dance, and the bravery of tile efliC i ers and men under his cot-tun:and. The Court would, lie trusted, retied what WAS the de scription of officers uuder whom this triumph was atchieved : not an Officer of the Royal Navy, but a man brought up in their own service, who bad de voted a long life in the promotion of their interests, he was sorry to add, most unsuccessfully for his own ; and, with resped to the importance of the victory to the Company's interest. If liar had thousheit necessary to give any weight to his purpose, beyond die ordinary feeling which must arise to every liberal mind, upon the fir t consider ation of the evidenc•e he would move to adjourn the further consideration of the subject, until every man. who had doubt os cut iesityupint the importance of the event, should • walk through the extensive w a re h ous e s of the company, and contemplate the immense g.7anttty of ealueble property, rescued by the courage of this gallant veteran Omcce from the grasp of the enemy into which it weaned almost inevitably falling. The immense value of this pro perty, costrestee with the smallness of the proposed provision, must come home to the generous feeling. of every man who heat him, and suggest the utter inadequacy of such .s remuneration. The Cemeeny bed often voted h larger rewards to Officr, of the Royal Navy, for Protecting their convoys, merely under a sense of duty to their King and country, without so moth as thinking about the ludic Company, or feelingthe slightest anxiety for their pre petty. But this atch ievement WAS by an Officer, whose whole life 4ss spent in the Company's service, and devoted to their interest. Addressing himself, as he now did, to a Gentleman, whose life had been devoted to the service, and who, had he been hi si milar circumstances with Captaiq Dance, would, he was sure, have displayed equal skill and courage, he trusted, that he spoke language congenial to his feelings, in thus bearing testimony to the merito rious claims of Sir Nathaniel Dance—and, in moving the amendment he was about topropose, which was— Tnat the Court o ProNwietora, M con-uterati.ai of tie 'Al lent and mentormus .14e , V1,Z1 t,l Captain Dance, tilt.

TheCRAIRMAN cordiidly coincided in the send • ments expressed Is? Mr, Twining, with regard to Capt. Ditnee, and observed, thavle Court of Dime fors had voted the sum, not as feeling it attadequate rennutieration to the important services of that gen tleman, but is unanimous and immediate cemcur reoce with his ()WO precise wish, as expressed by his 1: i n is, who had proposed this settlement as an al- Li-co:dive from the voyage, psoposcd to him as a more Promisirsx SCUT" of emolument, but which he had declined, a; well from his age and infirmities, having devoted forty-five years of his life in the Company's setvice, as from the inadequacy of his means to lit out such investments as should enable him to derive sect) advantages from the voyage as the Dii;iaors wished. , lie therefore most chearfuliy concurred in the objeds of Mr. Twining's motion. Mr. JOHNSON said, that, considering as he did, the state of the Company's finances for some time past, he always looked with jealousy and vigilance to every proposal for disposing of their money in re munerations of this kind. But so (ally did he en ter into the opinions of his Hon. Friend, \in 'Min ing, in t espe& to the gallant officer alluded to. that he for once withheld any opposition to the disposal propised, and cordially approved of the measure. Mr. RA NDA L J AC KSON, without seeking to assume any popularity with the friends of Captain Dance, said, th It if he disapproved the grant proposed, he should oppose it with the candour and openness of ass honest mind, regardless of what might be thonglit of his opposition. To the measure, or it, principle, he had now no objection to offer ; the only krspediment that occterred to his mind, was a prin. ciplelald down in the 4th seelion of the Bth chapter of the Bye-Laws of the Company, " That no mo ney, above the sum of 2001. be voted to any person, without a fortnight's previous notice, in writing ;" and, to the observance of this rule, as an Important privilege of the Company, he hoped the ; inn. Mover would have no objenion, fur, he was emorinced, it could not have the most distant effe' towards de feating a purpose, in which the whole Court seemed so onaniinous. Mr. Twiei so agreed to withdraw his motion, and moved, "'That it be taken into consideration, on Friday, the 4th of January ;" which was ordered. The Cilliolabl•14 then stated, that he had the plt-a. sore to acquaint the Proprietors, that Warren Has tings, Esq. had expressed himself perfeelly satisfied with the relief afforded by the Court of Diredurs respe6ting the Pension granted to him by the General Court. PRINCE OF WALES's ISLAND. The CHAI auto: then called the attention of the Court, agreeably to the I7th and 18th Se:lions of the 6th Chapter of the Company's Bye Laws, to the arrangement proposed by the Court of DireCtors for new modelling the government of Prince of Wales's Island, and setting it upon the same footing as the other Presidency of Fort St. George and Bombay. With this view, the Chairman stated, that the Court of Directors had lately come to an arrangement, which should be now read to the Court # the policr of the measure, he was confident, would be evi dent to every man ; and he felt himself per fefly satisfied that the Court of DireClors would receive their unanimous sanCtion for what they.. had done ; the measure proposed, he was well as sured, would prove highly advantageous to the Company's interests and to the puiaic as . • ftiiirt a;io or duet V then stated the views of the Di. ,-4 . )6S - regard to this new and promising set ihr The Dirr&rs, he stated, had long turned r thoughts to the establishment of some sub. • Oak and well-regulated Government in the F.ast- Ei nen partof Asia ; and, he was assured, the settle grant At• Prince of Wales's Island would answer all the parpoiee.of the Court. The advantages intended to be derived by the encouragement of the Easter's and Malay Trade, must be evident to every man. who teens his thoughts to the value of our possessions in the East ; besides which, it was essentially necessary to the iraeresti, of the shipping, both in the Com jany's and the King's service, that such art esta blishment should be forthwith made. 'this Island would afford a rendezvous fur our China ships, and it was intended by Government. that at bast one halt of the Naval Force in His Ma jesty's service stationed in India should always be at this place for the safety of the shipping.— There was another very important nbjecl to he it -Wined by this settlement—he meant the praCticabi lity of building and repairing ships of war for His Majesty's service in India—a subj,•Ct which had long been maturely considered, and which, he was confident, the present arrangement would he able fully to carry into eff.aft. In short, he stated that na 'Ware seemed to have formed this island for all the •pawscs the Company or the Legislature could have isfeview. The climate was the finest in all India ; .its prndu.'hons equal to any in India ; it po• s. seed a harbour where ships might always anch... in safety, =mole aed by the wind ; its eontiguif to l'egn, where the largest forests of Teat arc to be found; and lastly, its situation between Bengal and China, enfficiewir pointed it out as the vety place for form ing a settlement, which might be made an empo rium in the Eastern Seas, and a commanding station in that quarter. The CHAIRMAN then adverted to the scheme for building ships of war at Bombay, which had, in wane measure. failed, in consequence of the dif ' &nide% of obtaining timber in that quarter. Bom bay, he al - s stated, had been made hitherto a naval station ; hut the great distance from th e flay of Bengal made it every way incoarement for such a station. 'lbis difficulty, he observed, would be obviated by making the station at Prince of Wales's Island. The CHAIRMAN then concluded by ob serving, that the bare produttions of the island. be trusted, would he sufficient to defray all the ex pences the Company were about to be put to; which, he begged leave to stale, would not be so great as gentlemen might in general imagine, as an esta blishment. of nearly the same extent, already existed in the island. The principal charge was, to put the government in the hands of the Company's co venanted servants, instead of those who How held it, who were under no engagement to the Company. The CHAIRMAN then moved, " That the General Court should approve the arrangement agreed upon by the Ceurt of DireCtors. subjed to the confirma tion of another General Court, to be called fur the purpose, pursuant to the Company's Bye Laws." Che DIFURT CHAIRMAN (Mr. GRANT) sop ported the arrangement agreed upon by the Court • • of Direelors, in a very - able speech, Whitt. we fig our limits will not permit us to enter apogee.), The several papers relating to the a:lantern were then read, Ily which it appears the near C vernment is to be formed on a plan similar to de already established at Bombay and eladras, in every way on a smailer scale for the present.
