Yesterday the Right Hun. the LORD MAYOR and Shtlifra went in ;tate from the Manbion.house, ac_ e;.tnpattied by several Aldermen, and the City Of. fleets, to St. Margaret's Hill, in the Borough, and opened the Sessions for the county of Surrey ; after whi L li they returned to the Mantsion.house, where on elegant dinner watt provided by his Lordship on the occasion. NewsVlyer% have often been stigmatised for the ipvidiutts asperity with which they treat each other; but the condua of those who censured us, relative to the late pacific overture from France, exceeds cmy thing, iwpoint of illiberality, that has hither. to al)pearedin the Public; Prints. If we had done jo y thing COON than simply state the arrival of such 2 , o vert ure, we might have deterred sonic part of the cflosure which has been apr.lied to us; but our only fault was in 113Ving a priority of infer,, vu di on --an ,offf,,nce that certain narrow-iniodvd, awl silly etihts, could not be expeCiefi to Rut what i 3 still, wo;:fe, in' their opi ro, is, that in a 3 matters of National Import !;;;0, we shall cent tall b often guilty tat the Jame an d e xpfv,e them, to the grievous mort;ii. ut ‘;b11,:kl Ip eq:" or intelligence, atiti , 7 IL!', troth zit itL after it.has &twin itotu thcm rancour of: eft taut ovtlignity, It•is quite surprising that lioicottlatre, as he now 'assume, the language of Sovereignty, not affeft something of that - dignity of sentiment by which Sovereignty is best adorned. To say no. thing of the injustice of detaining such of our Countrymen in France as are not the legitimate Prisoners of War, the illiberality and meanness of his conducl, in. this respeet, spews a little mind, and must raise the contempt of every Potentate with whom he would fain be on a level, or over whom, indeed, he aspires at superiority. This aEtion of his life will be branded by the Historian, as it proves that the Usurper is as mean as he is atrocious. DESSALINES has done wisely in laying some re. striCtian upon the importation of :piths into his new dominions, though it may be doubted whether he will be able to maintain his.lmpriot Hate when his subjeas recover from intoxication. A very important alteration has taken place in the dress - of the Swedish'Army, which is stated, in a Letter from Stockholm, to have arisen from the following ludicrous circumstance :—" The Countess of GuLDENKIND, celebrated for her wit and beau. ty, dining at the King's table at Stralsund, in cam. parry. with Col. Du STURE, who had an uneotu. manly fine head of hair, made many pleasant re. marks upon the inconvenience of such a part of dress to a Soldier. After dinner she placed herself be hind the Count's chair, with a pair of scissars, and solicited, by signs, His Majesty's approbation to tv!•at the was about to dr. The King, at length, nodded assent, and the fine hair of Colonel DE STUIR was immediately severed from his head ; next Morning it was given'out in General Orders, that the whole Swedish Army should, in future, wear the hair short." _ Two of the wealthiest Jew families at Breslau embraced Christianity a short time since. The following circumstance is related in the• French Papers, as having occurred early in Decem. ber, at Nordkooping, in Sweden :—The Governor of that City gave an entertainment, to which every person of distindi :n in the place was invited.— Among the company there was a Lady of great beauty and accomplishments, but remarkable for her excessive jealousy of her husband, who is a Cap. tain of Dragoons. In the course of the evening it was proposed to aft a piece, and Pyramus and Thisbe" was chosen'. A very charming young Lady, of sixteen, desired to perform the part of Thisbe, and that of Pit-alma was assigned to the Captain, who played with so much ardour as to excite the jealousy of his wife. She watched his every ges. tore ; and in the scene where the lovers determine to elope, the young Lady, not recolleaing, pro. bably, that in the original story &in envious wall prevents their embraces, thought that the repre. sentation would be Much mere natural, if Pyramus were to receive, without interruption, a few kisses from the impassioned Thisbe. Pyramus unfortunate. ly appeared to receive, with extreme sat,isfaCtion, the of his dear' Thisbe. The married Lady immediately snatched a knife, which one of the Per. formers wore as a dagger, and stabbed the unfot. tunate young ;woman.. She afterwards rushed at her husband, with the intention of stabbing him Also; but her, design was luckily frustrated. She then attempted to stab herself ; but the knife was wrested from her, and she was secured. The wuond which the young Lady received is luckily: not dangerous ; the husband the next day appliedlor a divorce, and the jealous quire is, in the interim, gidly guarded. On Friday morning a cartel from the, Texel, with about, tt z English prisoners, who had been coofined in different prisons in Holland, landed at Scarborough, about zo of whom belong to Hull.

They had proceeded a short distance from Canterbury, when 'Worland intimated the clamorous demand made by his craving appetite for i thesliment, hut how to procure the necessary fart became a btlbjea. Of `consideration, us both our travellers, in consequence of extravagance the pre. ceding evening, were pennyless. Morland, how.. ever, who was seldom at a loss to obtain introduc tion into an ale:house, quickly hit upon an expedient to serve the purpose :—Observing a low.built house by the road side, over which hung a figure designed for a Bull, he entered, and under,. pretence of quiring his way, cmilinenced a conversation with the landlord, expressing his surprise the latter did did not renew his sign, . which time dusti nearly de. faced. The host stated his inabilty to get it re. paired, and observed it was gond enough to grace his humble habitation ; but on the ofrer of Mariana to paint him a new one for five shillings, he con.: sensed, and ordered the Artist to try .his skill. A fresh difficulty, however, occurede--Morland was without utensils; and the sign could , not be painted unless the landlord dispatched a servant to purchase colours, See. at Cantctbury, which he was after much persuasion, prevailed upon to do ; in the mean time the Painter bespoke a dinner, and the travellers drank several piichets of good. ale, with a propor tionable quantity of. 'spirits, the charge for which could only be defrayed by painting the sign ; their reckoning, however, by the time the Bull was done, ,d t aibled the stipulated five shillings ; but Morland paeilitql the enraged landlord (who reluctantly suffer. eel them to depart) by describing who he was, and promising to erdl on future day and pay the ba. lance. On arrival in town Morland related this adventure aumg his friends at rho: WAD, Fleet.atteet, and the singularity of it indue. eel a G e ntlernan; who possessed the highest venera. Lion for the Paintees .prodoCtion*, to set off ptiVitte.

Armed Defence Ships as before, 'with the six East. India Ships. On Friday morning arrived at Leith the Smual. low Packet, Capt,Wmtta, from London. On Wed nesday morning, between eight and nine, being off Flamborough Head, a French Brig Privateer came close upon her stern, through a fleet of colliers, and was within pistol-shot before Capt. WHITE knew she was an Enemy, and saw them loading their guns. The Frenchman called nut repeatedly to gi Had to;" ,and Capt. WHIM ordering down his square sail, immediately cleared his deck to,en. gage. In the mean time the Frenchman hauled up his colours, half-way up his main-sail, and fired a broadside, with a volley of musketry ; but being opposed, with as much precision and regularity as It; suddenness of the alarm admitted of, with rt:und and grapeshot from the Smack's z 2.pouratarrOn. lades, he, after a short time, !bought proper to sheer off to a safer distance, keeping up his fire, but h v . pily without doing any injury. After some time an English armed Ship came down upon the Priva. teer, and hastened her retreat. She kept hoverkg about, however, all day, and it is feared may have taken several vessels in the evening. .Copt. WHITE' ; fought with the greatest resolutio n and, we arc happy to say, neither Ship nor Crew sustained any damage. The Swift Packet, Capt. pap, was in company. She was a black-sided l3rig, mounting; apparently, 14. guns, full of men ; carries a white. bottomed boat over her stern. The Brig George, Purt CELL, of Greenock, from Liverpool to Galway, was totally lost at the Isle o f Man, on the 4 th i nst a n t, together with the cargo and crew, except one man. gviaa of 'a Letter received at Greenock, on Mum.lay, from the Master of the Nell ] and Peggy, a vessel which had fur some time been given up as lost : 66 We sailed from Fort Johnston upon the 9th November; 1864, and made the land of the North of Ireland upon the isth December ; the wind then coming to the Eastward, we could make nothing of it, and upon the 25th, blowing a severe gale, we got into Sheephaven Bay. Upon the 3oth, a light air springing up from the S. W. we got under weigh ; but the wind coming again t• the E. and blowing very hard, obliged us to take the Sound of Islay upon the 3d January, 1805. You may de. pend upon it I will make as quick dispatch as pos. Bible from this place. There is no damage done to the vessel since we left America, only some of the fore rigging, and main.hooni, carried aw,iy. We arc entirely loaded with limber and wrought.liand spikes." The Pub&isle, of the 2d inst. says, 'that the chid &orris, of Belfast, bound to Bristol, has been taken by. a French Privateer, which also captured three English Brigs. The Qtorge, Capt. SINEPIOtt, of Greenock, has alto been taken and carried into Guadaloupt. A Paris Journal of the 3d Instant contains the.. following Article, which it may be pleasing to the .nations uf , OA English Prisoners in France to peruse : " The English detained at Verdun have enjoyed Without intermission an entire liberty, even since the escape of Mr. CRAVPURD, (Sir JANltib) ; their aetual number is 850; but 8 5 of them have been transferred to Sarrelibre. We have proofs that se.: veral of them, without regard to their word of honour, the only restraint which bas been imposed on them, have attempted to escape. But the same conduit towards them has been -unceasin g ly o b. served. They even have at their . disposal every source ofamusement, as horses, carriages, &c. which they possessed at the period of their arreitation.— They receive, without interruption, by Germany, the remittances which are sent to them frum Eng. and," &c:—(Pabliciire, Jan. ) The Triennial Elettion fur the Choice of a' Pre_ eidenr and Vice-Presulent, of the Government of the United States of America, is in full activity, and Mr, presmitig his influence; is, certain of being re-elated.
