WE last night receive,d.the Mogiteur of the igth inst. and this morning the remaining Papers of that date. Their contents are completely uninteresting. The Funds are at . 5.3. The report of Lord GAR Dtitlt'S being about to . be called up . .to the House bf, Peers, we_ should sup pose to be unfounded. Had such an'event been in tended, it . vvould probably have taken place previous to the General Elcdion: • Lord and Lady CATLEREAGy have gone to Ire land, by the way of Portpatrick and Donaghadee. We are scrrrto hear, the Duke of DEVONSHIRE bas been some time confined, by Indisposition. The late Colonel BARRE held the office of Clerk of the Pells about fifteen or sixteen years, it having been granted to him by Mr. , PITT, during the early part •of his Administration, in order to save the Country the expence of a pension, which had been previously granted to the Colonel, and which was in consequence relinquished. Yesterday the Lord Mayor, Sheriffs, Recorder, and several Aldermen, went from the Mansion. House to the Swan, at Stratford, where his Lord ship held a Court of Conservancy for the County of Essex ; afterwaids proceeded to Blackwall, where they tool: water in the City Barge to Greenwich, and held a Court of Conservancy for the County of Kent, at the Ship T4vern, where an elegant dinner was provided. ,The Royal Kentish Bo•-wrneN have a grand dinner toinorrow, on Dartford Heath. We hope the weather will prove propitions to t!tera. As soon as a piece of ground can be got for the purpose, a new and elegant Hall will -be built to draw the Lotteries in, somewhere near the Bank. The Poke of B:DFoRD, We believe, has take n no very a4tive part in the Eleaions, either for Mid dlesex or Westminster. His Grace has been for some time,at Woburn, where the Marquis find Mar_ chioness of BATH have been on a visit. The Duke lives almost entirely amongst the relatives of his late most amiable Lady. It could not he true, that the Dutchess or DE VONSH Ix E was canvassing all Sunday for the Cold Biub-fichls Barlet, as Her Grace on that day re turned to- Town :'ram a visit at Stanmore. WILL IAM MANLE,v, Esq. Barrister at Law, is appointed Attorney-Generai of the Chester Circuit, in the roam of Mr. LE YC ESTER ) 111:VIC a Welch j9(lge. Yesterday was launched from Mr. ROBERTS'S Yard, a magnificent Stare Barge, built for the Worshipful Company of Skinners. She is the most beautiful and largest Barge ever seen in this Country. Admiral DUMARESQ, who died lately, rnuch.be loved for his hospitality, and the truly benevolent heart which he possessed, was one of the :Heroes of the . Izth of April, 1782, having commanded the Repulse, of 64 guns, in the gallant Action fought by Lord RODNEY with the Comte de GRASSE, on that memorable day,. He was wont to take singular de light in relating the following anecdote of himself : that he had nearly attained the age of '73, without ever having had occasion to pay either a Physician or a Lawyer a fee." The Admiral was a native-of Jersey, of a Family Who for centuries have filled some of the most important Offices in that island, and a Member of which, at this time, occupies the distinguished situation of President Lf the Royal Court there. The paragraph which appeared in this Paper, en Tuesday last, -stating that the Rev. Dr. MORICE, the nearest relation of the late Mn. CRACHERODE, has come intofortune.of upwards of Too,oool. by Ler decease, is totally without foundation. One of the Paris Papers received yesterday has published an Extraa of a Letter from Hamburgh, in which the following projed is given : France to be called the Empire and _Republic of the Gauls; and Ler Chief Magistrate, the Sublime. President of the .Empire and Republic ; the Second Consul to be Arch-Chancellor - and Vice-President of'the Empire ; and the Third Consul 4rch-Treasu7er. The Con servative Senate, and the Legislative Body, and Tribunate to be abolished, and to be re-place . d by a College of Laws, and a Senate, which'latter Body s h a ll register - the Edicas of the Governrrient and the his of the College of Laws. It is again asserted in letters from the Hague, that on. the zsth of June a Treaty was concluded at Paris, by which the Porte grants to France the free navigation of the Black Sea. 0 11 the same authority we learn, that another Treaty was signed at- Paris on the z ist of May, during the period of the HEREDITARY PRINCE Of ORANG:i'S residence in that capital, in which the KT Ito of PRUSSIA renounces formally the Guarantee entered into in the year 170, of the Stadtholder shin of the United Provinces, recognizes the Bata.. Tian Republic, and promises to send an Ambassador to reside at the Hague. ' The HEREDITARY PRINCE also renounces, in his father's and his own name, all pretensions upon the Batavian Republic : for , this renunciation the House of NASSAU OtANGE is to receive the Bishop ric and Abbey of Fulda ; the Abbey cf Come) ; the /lA7 cf Weingardten and its dependencies ; and the Imperial Towns of Dortmund, in Westphalia, - and ri v and .13mekbarn, Suabia, NCPV 1--.41(1.1.araz.,4v4 MEMBERS RETURNED. tlibrrY ARPAA u—Hon.

MIDDLESEX ELECT lON. FROM the small number of Voters who poll each day, it must be evident to every one that this con test is decided. The superiority of Mr. MAIN. WARING UpOp the Poll over Sir FRANC IS BURDETT; still however. increases. The latter has repeatedly told his. Friends than the strength of .Mr. MAIN WARING was exhausted, whilst lie himself cannot, with all ,the boasted exertions of.his adherents, bring up near so many Voters as Mr. MAINWARANG. The - numbers polled for Sir FRANCIS BURDETT yesterday were only 60, for Mr. MAININARING 80, and Mr. BYNG 79. At the close of the Poll Yesterday, the aggregate numbers were, For GEORGE BYNG, Esq. 284.1 WILLIAM MAINWARING, Eq. 2+64. Sir FRANCIS BURDETT, Bart. 1955 Nothing worthy of remark occurred in the course of the day. CITY OF DURHAM ELECTION. ON Monday morning, at ten o'elock, the friends of Mr. LAWTON and Mr. TAYLOR, met at Mr. Hoult's Inn, to attend those Gentlemen to the Hust. ings, at the Town-Hall, for the purpose of sup porting their Nomination as Representatives to Par liament for that City. A little btfore eleven o'clock they proceeded to the Hall, accompanied by most of _the respectable Gentlemen of both County and City. On their arrival, they found that every part of it was already occupied by the friends of Mr. WHARTON, and that very .few of Mr. TAYLOR and Mr. LAMBTON'S friends ivere able to gain admittance. The MAYOR having reached the Hustings, he ordered the Writ to. be read, as also the late Aa of Parliament relative to treating at EleCtions, which being finished, Mr. BAINBRIpGE came forward and recommended to the choice of the Freemen Mr. LAMBTON, as a, fit and proper person to represent the City of Durham, and Mr. Alderman Cu IPCIIASE seconded the Mo. tion. Mr. TAYLOR was then proposed by Mr. Alder man [.Ds, and.• seconded by Mr. Alderman STARTORTI, Mr. Wl3Art-roN was proposed by Mr. Alderman POTTS, and seconded by Mr. RALPH HARRISON. Some altercation took place as to the manner of polling ; but it was at length agreed that each Member c should poll one friend in turn, and at the conclusion of the poll the numbers were, Mr. Larnbton 34—Mr. Taylor 34—Mr. Wharton IS According to agreement, the Members had each an equal number or friends who voted ; but as Mr. TAYLoR's friends voted for Mr. LAMBTON, and Mr. LAMBTOrN'S for Mr. T,&YLOR, it produced the above disproportion. About three o'clock, a Freeman, who had drank freely, and had promised all parties, was led by Sir H. V. TEMPEST towards the Hall to poll, when WHARTON'S Party claimed him as their vote, and proceeded to take him away. by force, when the friends of Sir H. •V. TEMPEST came to his as sistance,, and a general engagement took place. The man was almost torn to pieces by his friends, who wished to secure him, and at - length fell senseless on the ground. Still was he held by both parties, while numbers were fighting round him. Scarce a Gentleman of the County but was in volved in the scene, and it was owing to their in trepid conduet in keeping off the mob, that they at length secured the man. This was considered a great triumph, as it is seldom that, the rabble lose the advantage. It is much in favour of the peace of the City, that there are no open houses. MA,MSTONE, JULY 22.-Sir EDWARD KNATCH BULL has called his Committee together, and has • given up the contest. The Sheriff has not finally determined as to the Scrutiny, or making his Return, for Norfolk, till next Tuesday. The Sheriffs of London have aced very impru, dently, by giving notice through the town of Brentford, that the materials of which the Poll Booth is composed are private _property, by way of preventing an outrage similar to that which happened at Covent-Garden ; PRIVATE PROPERTY is exaaly what the Mob at Brentford most wish for. It is to the vigilance and discretion of the Ma gistracy of the Metropolis, that we o%sif. at dip \ prc scnt moment, our exemption from Tumult ; as' the Friends of Sir FRANCIS BuILDETT have so often al- Ncicd, in the course of his Canvass, ;o the Cold Bath-fields Prison, that a Mob has thus been led to assemble there almost every day. If Mr. MAINWARING have the support of the Publican, Sir FRANCIS BrtDETT has that. of the Sidner. From the number of Pavers polled by Sir F. BURDETT, one would think, that the Iforkbnises are filled with Free*hier; of Midd4rex, 1V -a I' . IL 1-4 1 V 1."..

Several of the outward-bound have put back from the Westward, among which is the Brig trilliax4 SMITH, for Madeira and Martinique. Arrived and sailed for Stangate Creek, the Catharine, WRANGHAM, from Smyrna. SHE4RNESS, JULY ,2Z. Tit! Trial Cutter sailed this day on. a Cruize ; the Adder Gun-vessel is come into Harbour ; and the Ranger Sloop of War is arrived at the Great Nore. We are concerned to state the loss of the past- India Company's armed Transport, the Real Fi delliss;mo, Captain LIPPIATT, in her passage to Mocha, with His Majesty's Both Regiment, from Goa. Four of the crew died through fatigue ; the remainder of the Crew and the Troops were taken on board the Perseverance. A private Letter from ,f3ontbay, by the last Ex press, informs us, that ,the aispatch, Captain Ho - Tot wsoN, was safely arrived there with a cargo of sugar, from Cochin China. The Captain stated, that the King had issued an Edkl, by which free ingress into all parts of Cochin China had been granted to, all English Vessels, with exemption from port charges, and duties of every description. General Meeting was on Wednesday held at the London Tavern, of the new Corporation of the West India Dock Company. The Chairman stated the general views of himself and brother Direc tors, and their reason for applying tor Parliament fer_leave to raise a further sum of money by way of additional Capital for the completion of the works, and the erettion of another Dock for the export trade, It was moved, " That it appears ex pedient that a further snm of 210,0001. should be raised for the. purposes stated." This was carried unanimously, A Resolution of the Diredors was then read, recommending the same to be raised at the rate of T4Ol. for each hundred. This was op posed by Mr. JACKSON, who concluded with intro. ducing an entirely different proposition,- by way of amendment, the substance of which was, that such further sums of money as were required for the corn, pletion of the works, should be raised in the same manner as the first 500,0001. giving the prekrence of the ilNrt; r tkrin to the original Subscribers, or tho:,. who succeeded to their shares. This amendment produced a debate of some hours. - On putting the question, the shew of hands was in favour of Mr. jAcKsotes amendment, 'when -a ballot w05,-4crpiclso;. the same was taken, and after caving up the Votes, the Scrutineers declared, for Mr. JAcxsoN% motion 91, against .it 64. IVlaj.o -rity 27. The General Quarter Sessions for Wilts were last week held at Warminster, when the. Grand Jury made - presentment of certain atrocious outrages lately committed in that town and neighbourhood ; ,such as burning ricks, barns, 4c,, and by the most atroci:.7- ous and unprecedented attempts (in no less than five instances within the last fortnight) to commit mifr-'. der, by firing bullets and shot into the bedichamOers of several individuals in the dead of 6lght.. The spirit of discontent which has at length produced such dreadful excesses, is understood to have been generated by a jealousy in the workmen, at the use of machinery in the clothing bysihess ; these people not duly considering, that without such machinery their labour would not merely be abridvd, but the business be wholly lost to that part of the country, since the Manufaeturers could not sell their goods, if not enabled to go to market on the same terms with those of other districts. On the sth of this month, Citizen AutatQprr and his wife, both aged about 70, and who had been married in the Church of St. Laurent, at Paris, on the sth of July 1752, celebrated in the same Church a solemn Mass of thanks on the Anniver sary of their marriage. They have had eighteen children, of whom six, as well as five. Grand Children, and a great number of friends and strangers assisted at this ceremony. • The vigilance of the Bow_street Officers, and . 1 their endeavours to prevent any kind of outrage or indecency during the present Ele6lion for Middlesex, are such as entitle them to •the thanks of the Public. Yesterday as a coach with persons carrying ' MAINW AR INC'S ribbons, was passing _through one of the turnpikes between Kensington and•ilammer_ smith, they were hooted and hissed by a' mob whiCh stood at the gate. Two or three ruffians, not con. tent with this indecency, threw dirt at the Cody; they were immediately taken into custody by ; .patrole, and sent off to town. 1. - Ever since the suppressioil,.abOuifour years. since, of the Fair- which had been held many years at Mortlake," the same' Parties have succeeded in hold ing one on Barnes Common. La . st year the "Ma gistrates attended to suppress it, hut failed, ..0o ondv , lest, being the return of the day, a number of Police Officers succeeded in preventing its being held ; some rural sports were-, however, permitted. At Brentwood Fair, on Monday and Tuesday last, there was but sniall show - of cattle, and though there wet but few buyer, .the stock was soon taken up at high prices; good cart horses were also.scarce, and dear. VIENNA, JULY 3.—Letters from Cr,wfatit state, that PAsswAN OG Lou has completely defeated a Corps of 3000 Turks. He has published a Proclamation, in which he orders the Inhabitants of Wallachia to re turn to their habitations, and to pay the Contribtition which he has imposed. The Courts of rienna and Pociiburgh have ordered Troops to march to pro_ tea their Territories from any attacks. If eAsswAN OcLotr does not return to order, the Russians and Austrians will at the same time enter Wallachia, and drive him from that Province. This measure, which has been concerted between the two Courts, will be preceded by a Declaration addressed to the 'Porte, who will probably pay the, expence of ,the War with some part of her European Dominions. JULY z z.—The celebrated Robber, Schinderbanne, has been brought to trial; he volun, tarily confessed all his crimes, and begged for mercy. The robberies he committed are innumerable ; he bad about-one hundred men under him, principally composed of MillerS, - Gaideners, and Labourers.— He is extremely'ignorant and illiterate. EXTRACT OF A LETTER FROM PARIS", JULY 19. " I have been to the Opera. Tragipe, called ' Le Theatre des Arts. The Singing is very bad. — It is neither like our taste, nor that of Italy, and the Performers, for that reason perhaps appear, indifFer..: ent, but the Dancink compensates fully for the defi ciency in the singing. I had no idea it was possible to reach such perfettion in that art. The Figu- . ratites : dance - neirly as well as some of our best Dancers. I was extremely pleased with it. Last night I went to the Opera Comipte, which I like much better than' ours—the style of the Music is delightful, and the Performers excellent. The Pa,, lais Royal has much disappointed me—it swarms: with the dirtiest set of men, and the vilest Objects of the other sex, I have ever seen. Thei women of all sorts are difficult to be distinguished,. from their dress—they all dress extretwly- open, even to disgust ; but I am told much improvement has taken place in that respeet—they must have been absolutely naked a few months ago. They' have an ugly way of wearing their hair over their ~. face in ringlets, while they do not seem to keel* it very - clean—it has a disgusting appearance to at,; . Englishman. " I have been to the o,tero. 13t#1, or Italian Opera, which is indeed 'very - infaior to ours. - It seems to me that they have more of the French style than the Italian, and there is no Oancing.- However, it boasts of better company, and better. ' dressed people than the other places of public' amusement. After the. Opera I•went. to Frescati, where there was a. Fae, and' very good fireworksc It_Was, full ) , and of well-dressed people. • Some of the women were very pretty indeed, but tnostlir brunettes.—Prtocati is an humble imitation of our ,; Vauxhall.

One thing I particW , lady remarked, that the Audience ckapped the Per.: formers much more than they did the chief Consul on his entrance. " The People here seem pettedly satisfied. 'net say very wisely, that they have had enough of troubles, and as the Laws are now executed, anti. the Chief Consul fills his situation wish great pro 4 priety, they are content." A Gentleman, some years ago, was travelling through a wood in France, with his servant, when he was attacked by a young man who robbed hila of so louis d'ors, his watch, and a gold seal. The robber also took both their horses. The Gentle.. man and his servant wandered about the wood for some time, and at length perceived a house of verf respeClable appearance. Upon going to it the Gen. , tleman found that it belonged to an oid Brother Officer, with whom he had served many years be. fore, He was received ‘vitli . the greatest kindness and hospitality. When they were at supper, t he . son of the owner of the house came in, and w a s in' scantly recognized by the Gentleman to be the person who robbed him. He however said nothing, lilt after supper retired to his chamber. His servant, who also recognized the robber, and who was in the greatest alarm, told him, that both their horses were : in the stable. His pilaster desired him not to say 0 word about it ; and the next morning very early, he went into his .friend's apartment, and acquainted ` him the disgraceful and dangerous practices his soh. The agony of the Father upon this i n tele ligence was such, that he fainted. Upon hi s reco very, he ivent to his son's room, who was, or pre" tended to be asleep. On the table he found the : watch And seal, with his friend's arms upon - The - son 'then rose and endeavoured to escape, ho g his.
