The Gazette of last night contained the Pro clamation for the Dissolution of Parliament. The new writs are returnable on the 24th of November next. Letters from Gottenburgh of a.`l7' er-y recent date state, that the Swedish troops in general are in the finest condition and the best state of disci pline. Six thousand i of them had been lately exercised at Tarletta, and attracted the admiration of several Brie4ta officers that were present. Preparations were making on board the Vidory for the reception of the CROWN PRINCE, who . ..was to be at Gottenlntugh on the 20th. Major Nicor.t.s, of the Royal Marines, it is ex pected, will be appointed Aid-dc-Camp to his Royal Highness. The. Nova Scotia Gazeik, of the 26th August, contains the following article :-- The American ship Indian Chief, from. Amelia Island to London, fell in with Commodore ROD- . GEUS' squndron, in 10ng.,20. and was ordered back to the United States : she was afterwards fallen in •with -by our squadron, and burnt.

Two Officers (BIRD and TAYLOR), were killed, and Commodore RODGER 3 was severely wounded. The squadron had been as far as lon gitudea3. and after wards off . the :Rock:- of Lis; Yesterday, at three o'clock, tne rluiNcz REGENT held a , Privy Council at Carlton-.house, for the Dissollitton .of Parliament, which was attended by , . _ The Lord Chancellor, the Earls of Livcmpool, Bathurst, Claacarty, and WeAtmoreland; Viscounts Mtilville, Sidmouth, and Castlereagh; Mr. Vansittart, &c. His Royal Highness was pleased Ito appoint the ROM. F. ROBINSON, Treasurer of the Navy, and the Earl of CLANCARTY, Master of the 31i:ut.

The ceremony of depositin g• the Eagles and CoViurs, the trophies of our glorious achieve ments in Spain, took place this morning. The 1 - 1 ree regiments of Guards assembled on the Parade ia St. James's Park,,And waitcdfor his Royal-High ness the PRINCE REGENT, who arrived soon' after. • A vast crowd were . present on the occasion, and were loud in their . acclamations.. The PRINCE then proceeded to Whitehall Chanel, where the same ceremony took - place, exactth !-as "On the former occasion. .There were five Eagles and four Colours.' The Chapel. was ,crp.Wded by a very elegant congregation. The Qut.r,N . • and PRIN CESSES went in private carriages to :the Chapel, but did not stop . on the Parade. The whole was a scene at : once solemn,- gratifying,_and patriotic. 'Jo-morrow morning the QUEEigi and Prin cesses AUGUYSTA. and nun - , 'will view Drury-lane Theatre. We are sorry to find it is stated, that a ship from Barbary has introduced the plague into the Island of Lissa, in the Mediterraneo.. . The French .Papers state, that the frigats La Thera, of 44 guns, and, 350 men, stationed at Trieste, blew up about midnight on the . 10th of ,September. The Commandant had gone on board scarcely a quarter of an . hour before; The whole roadstead was covered with the fragtuents of this yessel, and there were few houses in the town which had not had the windows shattered. • From private sources of information we learn, , that the prevalent opinion in America is, that MADIsox will not withdraw his declaration of war. That man is now about to shew himself in his true colours, but his career will be short. A few months war will, annihilate the commerce of-. Am erica, dissolve the 'connection between the. Federal and Democraticak States, and probably produce an indissoluble league between Great Brltain and 'the Northern States. So much for the attempt to introduce the Code NAPOLEON in morals and T .-0- Eties into the CouncilS'of a free country. The Argo has brought home Mr. CANNI.No,Iate Minister Plenipotentiary at Constantinople. The linglish and Turks never :were better friends than at the moment when the above ship left .Constan tineple—the French were much in the back ground. , - I General SARRAZIN, who has,,been at ilarwich for a week, with an intention r9f going to Gotten burgh, embarked on Monday, uu boe.rd the, Juck ia,d packet, for Heligoland, - , NAVAL NEi'v'►s./.

Monday, when it was un-'. uhnously resolved, that Sir. F. BV,RDEi.'T shOuld be put in nomination, and that the expenses at tending his election shoedd be defrayed by suli . - scription. With regard to Lord Cool-IRANI:, Mr. , ihams, an elector, expressed his ,disapprobation of some of his Lordship's political . conduct ; par ticularly, because about 2 years ago he, had.not se conded an Address_of Sir r 4 .BURDETT on the subject of Parliamentary Reform, but on that very night was witnessing the performances at the Haymarket. Neither had Lord COCERANE supported the Ad dress proposed by the 1-.lon. Baronet at-the close of the last Session. It was therefore carried by a majority of those- who were present, that Mr. -}`AwLEs should be put in nomination with Sir P. 'PITZDETT. Lord CASTLEREAOII'S speech in the House of Commons,' on the subject of parole of honour, must have been satisfactory,to all persims who up. 7, derstand that subject. What his Lordship said on that occasion was ably supported by Capt. OaOD-, ALL, in a vindication of himself which lately appeared , in this aper, and that vindleatiOn will equally_ apply to other British Officers who have fallen into the hands of the enemy. The proofs which Capt. GooDALL brought forward in defence of himself, were honourable and unquestionable, however they maybe cavilled at on Party Motives. , It is curious enough to observe that . the Whigs, who have so often and so violently declaimed against the influence of Lawyers in Parliament, should at this moment be endeavouring to palm Off a Special Pleader on the trading town of Liverpool, and a Chancery Pleader on the commercial city of Bristol. The Liverpool Wiseacres say, it is highly neces sary to choose a Reviewer for their Representative, at this critical juncture.• • On the 25th inst. Miss DAVIS, of Croft Castle, 'in Herefordshire, came of age; on. which occa sion there were an ox and 21 sheep roasted iu the Park, and distributed with '2l hogsheads of ale, and plenty of cyder, to the phpulace. On the joy ful ,occasion, Mr.-DAVAS also. clothed one hundred poor men, and Mrs. DAVIS the same number of . poor women, of the neighbouring 'villages. The tables were laid out on the lawn for the numerous tenantry ; and dinner was served up at six o'cldek; to the neighbouring Nobility. Monday was the day apppointed ,for Arr. San- ' LER'S aerial voyage from Dublin. to Holyhead, should the wind and weather prove favourable. Twenty-five guineas, reward •is offered by 'Dr. 13Agnow, , or by F 4. CLARKE, Esq.

Last week, a person who keeps a grocer's shop in Green-street, Grosvenor-square, praising some alteration in his shop, happened to take. up the flooring torepair, when, to his-astonishment, a bag was found, which had been carefully concealed, containing , between three and four hundred guineas. He gave a supper on Thursday night on the occasion. On Thursday last, as the Rev. Mr. Talbot, Cu rate of Tisburv, was riding a spirited young horse; the animal . (probably : from, sudden fright), leaped over a'stone bridge, and Oched upon 01 furs into the water, aboUt ten feet beneath, with . the rider Upon his back. This Gentlethan's es cape from death-or injury was miraculous, neither the rider nor the hOrse being Materially hurt. Tuesday se'unight, it wiling 'Gentleman having a famous water - Spaniel, . walking near St_ Clement's-church, 'Manchester, threw a stone into a pond, for the purpose of . shewing the: aquatic powers'-of diving for it. The . animal inuriediately jumped in, and eagerly ex plored the 'bottom ; -when, after a minute's im mersion, he brought' up a green bag, 'which on °pet - 11'11g, to the astomishineut of aa►l, contained an -excellent violin and fiddle stick. ''No clue has y e t, led to the disco' rely of its owner. An honest Welshman present called out, -"-'Tow in a oder "stripe, Junkmen, and who - knoWs but he May bring up thefidier." , On 'the 20th of August, the Director SE FFEii, at Munich, observed the new Comet with an instill. Inca of Ramsden's and a Dolland four foot te lescope, whiCh magnified 275 times. He found it had a tail a degree and a half -long, and could. distinctly discern the nucleus surrounded by a ife-' bulons atmosphere similar, like that of the last Comet, - to the zodiacal tight, but somewhat inure ; luminous and dense,. which seems to confirm the conjecture, that Coa:ets - are the elements - of Planets, isit,VariARICET FIRST OCTOBER. 151,2; TUESDAIti i SEPT. 99.

The crowd of spectators vas immense the match altogether afforded great amiviemeute -- first going off, the odds were five to one is favour of the Wellington; but, the nautical ...skill displayed by Capt.

On Tuesday last, between the hours of six aka seven in the evening, Mr. THOMAS WELLER; a , Croydon, watchmaker and jeweller, was robbea of a glass-case, placed upon the counter in his shop, and which contained jewellery, &c. to flee value .of 501. or more.
