The WHOM from the theatre of war, in the Frensh. Journals, ate tot of so late a date as those received by the Hambergh Papers. They do not, contain aay account of the affair of the Bth, but merely state, that it was to be the day , decisive of hostilities. Its the mean time, the French funds continued to advance, and were, on the 11th. 65 1-10th.—Thin high MA of the funds, amidst so many warlike appearances, is noticed by several of die Paris Papers, as an extraordinary circumstance, llnd j varionsly accounted for. Some attribute it to an expeftatian, that notwithstanding those demon strations, matters would be accommodated between Trance and Prussia. Others to a confidence in the success of the French arms, founded upon the result of the late war against Austria. The Qasette de &mere, of the lCth, is the only Paris Paper that we have readved, which notices the departure of Lord Lairessoat.s on the 9th. It states the fad simply, without any comment. These papers also contain several paragraphs respelling the late attack upon lloulogne. They all agree in stating, that it was riot attended, by any damage, except the desuuetion of two hoaxes. We have received New York Papers to the 15th last, this contents of which are of considerable im portance. A vessel, arrived at that port on the 12th , from Coracoa, reports, that subsequent to the cap ture of Coro, by Allem:pa, that bold adventurer bad been defeated in ass engagement with the Spaniards, and obliged to re-embark. The sans! . Paper also contraaitlis the account given so much in detail, and with so mazy minute circumstances, of the execution by the Spaniards of several Ameri. cans taken on board the two captured schooners of that Chief. But the most interesting article in these Papers is the accoant given by the ealesreste fneneh frigate, of JSRONS BON•Piltit'S squadron, whiclA she had formed a part. This veuel, which wasseparated by the hurricane of the 19th, andobliged to bear away for the Delaware, where she was left repairing het dansages, reports, that after the squadron lest ight of Admiral COCHIANI. of Tortola, it stood to the westward, and cruised for several days off Charleston, in hopes of in tercepting sows of the British homeward-bound convoys from the West Indies. Not meeting any success. it then stood to the Eastward ; and, about the 1,,h or 13th of August, the ratureuse, being the look-out frigate, discovered ; convoy of about forty sail, and three men of war; with intelligence which she returned to the fleet. On the 11 , th, site captured the British ship Nett, whiih she sunk, after having taken out her' people. On the 17th she tell in with the squadron. Jane's' Batik sacra's ship was then missing. The squadron lay to him, for two days, when desparing of falling in with him they resolved to pursue the convoy without him. immediately after this determination, the dreadful lia mane of the 19:11 came on, and dis persed 11111 squadron. The rub su-rtair ;rushed foe the Chesapeake, but was otlk3e.i to bear sway fat the Delaware. It appears, from this statement, that lea ma 13oss &&& A 4 bad aaually run away from the squadron. h nad made eighteen prises after it had lett biytiaique. -~-..► The It!esstles!oop of war is arrived at Portsmouth, from the Coats et Virginia, with dispatches for Covernment,.containing an account of the destruc tion of Vliopriassur, of 74 guns, on:: of Jetta st Bo e• ra is I a's squadron, on the coast of America, by the Be!kW; and 11t1load, ships of the line, and the lawyer frigate, part of Sir ELF...rialto ST ACHA squadron, as we states! yesterday.

On Saturday last, a man of this name of Fttta tao, in the 70th year of his age, undertook. for a wager of five guineas, to go on foot from London Bridge to Welling, in Kent, and but; in four hours; he started at twelve O'clock at noon, reached Welling at tansy minutes after one, where he stopped ten minutes to refresh, and resumed back to the place froin whence he started, which he completed in ten minutes less than the time allowed, the dis tance being twenty-two miles. Many bets were de pending upon the issue. • It is repofto that the Chevalier Acroa has been obliged to resign his situation of Prime Minister at the Court of Naples, to make way for the Mar quis Clacat.t.o, a person every way inferior, both in respeEtability, chara&er, and talent.

A most curious sort of gig, called a Afe-otroche, from its hiving only one wheel, was tiltibited yes terday, in BOiotstreet; where it attrafled an im mense crowd of spetlitors. The wheel consists of one nave, with two rims, upon a three feet axle tree, the spokes inserted from tie nave alternately into each rim. From the shortness of the axle•tree, the carriage is evidently expno'd to the danger of over-setting; but to guard agoina any accident of th i s kind, there is at each extremittuf the asle-trie, an iron scythe, within three ruches* of the ground, to answer as a fulcrum, in case of any great Melina. tion to either side. This carringe, thus affixed with a scythe, is, probably, intentted for die use of that class of physicians, described by Addison, in the following line:— sr Some sloe in chariots, some on foot" COUNTESS OF KENMARA'S FUNERAL.
