SIR-At the request of the Consul-General of France in London, the Authorities of this place ivill prevent in future all English subjects land ing, or proceeding from this Port unless furnished with Passports, either from him, from the French Ambassador, or from the Consular Agents at Portsmouth or Southampton. This, until it is known, may cause much incon venience, as I have been obliged to apply to the Sous-Prefect, who has permitted travellers to pass as formerly for eight days from this date. You will therefore have the goodness to notify to travellers, in whatever way you may think proper, the necessity of complying with the regu lations of this place, to prevent their being de tained here, or sent baCk to England. I have, &c. (Signed) ARCHIBALD GORDON., British. Consul. The Collector of the Customs, Southampton. Letters and Papers from Gibraltar have been received to . the 28th ult. By these we are in formed that the British Ambassador in Spain, Sir WiLt.tAm A'Couar had arrived at that garrison its the Tribune frigate, together with his suited-- The Officers of the Tribune stated, that they un derstood from the French squadron, that orders bad. been sent them to prepare for bombarding COI!, in the event of the king not being given op. Several skirmishes had token. place at the lines between the Spanish and French troops.•--- An attack had - beeh made on the lines by the latter on the 25th, in which they succeeded in causing the Constitutionalists to fall back with a trifling loss. San Roque remained in possession of the French, but Algesiras had not then been occupied. Very little was going round from Gib raltar to Cadiz ; one dollar a fanega freight had been givehfor grain from Gibraltar to that place.l Sr.' PLTSItSIWOII, Ju Ly 30.—The Emperor returned last week from the Military Colonies to the capital, and will not set out on hi4journey to Tulezin and Moscow till After the fetes. at Peterhof, on the 3d August, for which great preparations are rnakin Lattt Saturday his Majesty visited the fleet at Cronstadt. The. Po Pll.—(ll.oxtE, July 30.)—A ftpr being long without information respecting the situation of the Pope, we now receive accounts - which directly contradict one day what we heard un the preceeding. Under the date of the 26th we have the following :—NOtwithstanding the satisfitctory reports that are in circulation respecting the health of his Holiness, we are not without considerable apprehensions on his account. It cannot be dissembled that the physicians have to deal with the infirmities of an old man in the 84th year of his age, who be. sides has longssuffered from a double fracture, and whose legs are beginnin g t o swe ll f or wan t o f exerc i se . I t seems , that the Pope himself begins , to be sensible of the danger of his situa. tion ; at least if he intends, as it is reported, to issue three bulls to the following effe ct: The first for holding the approach. ing conclave in the palace of the Quirinal, in which he resides,. and not, as is the custom, ih the Vatican; the second for the regulation of his funeral; the third, to confirm all'persons in office in their several employents, till his successor shall have taken possession of the Papal chair : all these dispositions show the man of a strong mind, and the paternal Sovereign. As matters now stand, a consistory is not to be thought of, not. withstanding the urgent desire of several bishops, especially front Naples, who find a long residence in Rome expensive, and ardently wish to be with the flock intrusted to their care.— Undey the date of today we are informed. that the health of his Holiness has considerably improved within these few days.-: (German Paper. _ An article from Brussels, dated Aug. 14, 'says, " Notwithstanding the various reports respecti►►g the causes of the late fire in the Hotel of the Finances, and of the unfortunate death of M. Dekin, the official Journal defends that gentle man's memory from the accusation of having been deficient ,in his accounts, and of having committed suicide. It declares that the surgeon who opened the body found no indication of poison whatever. Whether the first was, caused by his imprudence, and his agitation brought on a fit of apoplexy. while he was going to call for assistance, is an other question, on which the investigation making by the Police may throw some light. A gentleman from Cuba states, that from the continuance of extreme dry weather for many months at that island, so immense a number of cattle S and horse kind have fallen a sacrifice to it, that the loss in value is estimated at a million of dollars. The Berlin papers boast of a reform which is working in the mode of travelling in Germany. It is stated that the postmasters, are discarding the old sluggish movement with which th ey h ave so long been reproached, end endeavouring to emulate the expedition of English mail-coaches. The spirit of improvement is said to have ex tended itself to Bohemia. A Diligence is esta blished between Prague and Vienna, which goes 42 German post miles in 39 hours, THE THKATRES., HAYMARKET.—The dfricans, one of those mixed Dramas which shew the versatile powers of the younger Cor.':r..o, was represented • lase night at this Theatre , . The serious, or, rather, the terrific scenes of this play, are agreeably re lieved by those of a humorops kind. In the for mer parts Pork, CooeEn, %lists°, and Mrs., CIiATTERLEY, excited a strong interest, and, in the latter, the ludicrous powers of LasTON-were brought into the Most diverting action. The Play was in general much applauded, and was followed by the very entertaining-Farce of Simp son and Co., which loses none of its attraction by' repetition, as it is so well supported . by (hp per formers. ENGLISH. :OPERA Bousr..-----The Poky Pocket sailed again °very successfully lust night at this Theatre, and MATtlews personated the cha racters with appropriate truth nod humour. The farce of Monsieur Tonson again brought him for• ward in Monsieur Morolen, in which he seethed to be more in self-possession," and he exhibited the ludicrous distresies of the poor Frenchman with admirable vtl'ect. The Theatre was well attended. The following is given in a Morning Paper as the rate of Salaries at Drury-Lane Theatre in the year 1765, but it is impossible that it should be correct, for GA R iticK was then in the zenith of his talents and r e put a ti on , and Ited;no doubt, a salary more adequate to his wonderful genius and powers of attraction:— . . . aantitcx (per night) . - £2 15 6 Mr. Yates (the famous Otidelto) and his wife - 3 6 8 Palmer and his wife - - 2 0 0 King (the celebrated Sir Pettr Tank and Lord (kkby) I I) 8 Parsons (the famous comedian) - - - 1 8 8 Mrs. Cibber 2 It) Mrs. Pritchard - - -•-• 2 6 Mrs. Clive - 1 15 Miss Pope (the first of chambermaids) - 11 13 4 Signor Guestinelli (chief singer) - 1 3 4 Signor Grimaldi and wife (chief dancers) - 1 0 0 That the expences of the Patent Theatres are enormously increased since the period in ques. tion must be granted, but that such eminent Performers as those above mentioned should have, received such incompetent pay it is folly to suppose. Besides, YATES is styled " thi; famous Othello;" n character which he never attempted. He was an excellent Comedian, and confined himself to characters suitable to his abilities. The PALMER that is mentioned in this impro bable list was not the late Mr. JOHN PALM an, but his predecessor, a very good actor, according to the. report of contemporaries, and who married the daughter of Mrs. PRITCHARD. An alarming report was circulated on the death of this actor. During his life the late JOHN PALMER was de signated as ,Mr. J. PALMER, but, of course, was Mr. PALstEtt only when the other died. - It was therefore announced by some wag of the day that " one PALMER was dead, and that the other had had an eye knocked out." THUNDER-STORM. [Prom the Northampton United Stales Gazette of July 161 On Friday. last, p.m. a tremendous thunderbolt fell on the dwelling-house of Mr. Ilezekiah Wright, of West hampton, and literally tore it to pieces. The electric fluid en tered aethe chimney, and burst it 10 or 16 feet in length below the roof. In the second story, which is in an open and 0n ..., finished state, the fluid was divided. A part of it passed off td a' beam and 'partition in a wash-room Situated On tide back part of the house, and shivered them to pi eces; close . by this partition a lad' was sitting with his hat on, whi c h was struck by the lightning and . rent to flittervt. it then passed down ° the back of his head to his. shoulders ; the hair of his head was a little matted and presied clone , as by a hot iron, and not burnt ; his jacket and shirt were torn from his shoulders ; he was knocked down, covered with shattered boards, &c., and taken up for deed ; his neck and shoulders were considerably burnt, so that lie complained very much of great heat, but appeared to be cold in every other part. He is now in a hopeful way of recover 4. One portion of the fluid parted at the ridge pole, followed' that to the end, passed down by the studs to the lower room,' throwing off the clapboards in its course, and burst through the plaster. ing into the room where were eight females. Another portion, !Wowing down the chimney, broke its way into a cupboard in the first story, burst open the door into the room just men tioned, dashing to pieces the crockery and a bottle containing rum, and setting that on tire ; filled the room, and also the faces and eyes of the females with lime, dust, and smoke, so that the room became completely dark. Mrs. Wright and babe (two days' old) were in bed directly between the two explosions ; five females sat near the foot of the bed ; another lady was walking the room, whose head on one side was covered with fire, which she brushed off' with her hand ; her face and neck show marks of the tire, but are sot very much injured ; the rest escaped unhurt--,most of them complaining of numbness and prickling. The house is left a wreck ; the chimney has large fissures ; about 100 lights of glass are broken ; many boards torn off; some furniture dash ed to pieces ; doors forced from their hinges ; the floor forced up, &c. The scene was truly awful. There were ten persons in the house exposed to imminent danger, whose lives are all preserved. Oxman Cmcorr.—The conduct of the Bar risters on this circuit towards Mr. Coftwoon, is so illiberal that it could hardly be expected from men of a learned profession. Mr. CuttWOOD, in consequence of an accession of landed property; which he naturally wished. to sitperintoi, and which, by going on the Oxford Circuit, he was enabled to do or to neglect his - interest in that respect materially, unless be relinquished his profession. He explained his reasons to the full satisfaction of Serjeant Osst.ow, but they have not operated upon the other Barristers on that Circuit, who send Mr. C. to Coventry, as the phrase is. Considering the narrow.tninds and illiberal feelings of the persons alluded to, Mr. CUItWOOD should treat thetwwith contempt, or indignantly say, with Coriolanus, "I banish you:" In fact, it may be inferred that the conduct of these men is the result of fear, lest his good sense, shrewdness, legal knowledgeond experience, may render him too powerful a competitor. • CATALANI.—It must be acknowledged that the puff preparative for this lady's return to Lon don, has been most industriously spread through the kingdom. Not Doctor EADY'S publications on Suburbia', walls, or even WARREN'S Bl ac ki ng Poems, have exceeded the Reports of this Syren's Trumpeters. LIVERPOOL; AVG. 16.—Our Representative, the Right Hon.

A•6ffl, ON CRAWLEY DOWNS, IN SUSSEX, 32 MILES FItOM LONDON. On Monday aftvrnoon a good sprinkling of the FatiCy were in motion ; and early yesterday morning, long before day-light, the Amateurs were on the trot to get over the ground in tinkle time, but many of their grads were beat to a stand-still before Chapel House appeared in sight. The SheenieA were numerous in the extreme, and Aby the favourite 6 to 4. Both of the combatants arrived on the " hit of turf" in swell trim; and Sampson threw in his white topper at a few minutes after one, in themost determined style, attended by Josh. Hud son and Ben. Burnt; Belem soon followed, with Richmond and Peter Crawley. 1. Sampson, very different from his former battles; was as steady as a Greenwich pensioner, and gave the preference for his opponent to go to work. Belaseo pnt in slightly two left handed blows on the body. A on pause ; and Sampson p u t down his hands. Belasco very skilfully stopped a most tre niendous blow aimed at his heed. An exchange of blows, and the right eye of the Jew was a little damaged. In closing, the Jew hail the best of the fibbing, and in going down Sampson was undermost. • 2. Sampson made play with his left hand, and Belasco put in a severe facer. Sampson was again down and und er m ost ; but the claret slightly first appeared on the Jew's nose. 3- This was a short round.—Sampson down. 4. and 5. The fine science of the Jew was the admiration of the spectators ; and he took the lead. 6. In strnggling at the ropes, the Jew sent Sampson down. 7. The Birmingham youth went down from a severe blow near his wind. Loud shouting by "zte Sheenier-2 to I offered —and, " Belasco, you have won it." 0. In favour of liclasco—Sampson undermost. 9. to 14. Most of the spectators bad now made up their minds that Belasco must • prove the conqueror; the science he dis. played was equal to any . thing ever witnessed in th e prize..ring. Sampson went down..... Some marks of disapprobation. 15. In counter-hitting, Sampson planted so tremendous a blow near the Jew's temple, that he fell out of the ropes nearly senseless • and it-was thought it was all over.. 16. Belasco came up groggy to the scratch ; but he got a turn, and Sampson went down. 17, 18. 19, 20. The Jew was getting weak ; but neverthe. less he fought like a brave man. He was down in nil of these rounds. 21. A small turn in favour of Belaseo—indeed, it was aft most any body's battle ; a decided hit either way would have put an end to the tight. Sampson down on his knees. 22. Sampson fibbed down. 23. The Jew's nob by this period was severely punished ; and he went down quite exhausted. 2tol on Sampson. 24. and last. Ilelasco received a hit in the middle of his head, and he went down on his back, and when time was called he was insensible. to it. The battle was over in 42 minutes. OnsEnvaTtosrs.—The conduct of the Jew was the praise and admiration of the ring, and although defeated, he has raised himself high in the estimation of the Fancy in general. He was an inch too short for his opponent, and also a stone at least in weight. Iloth of the men %Tie in high condition. Sampson stood over his opponent, an d he i s rapidly improved, not only in person, but also in fighting. Ile immtaliately offered to fight any of his old opp onents for 100/. a-side, ex cepting Josh. Hudson. Sampson's exterior did not show much punishment. The second battle, between Carnal (the Suffolk Champion) and 'Whittle, a coal-whipper, for 20/. a-side, afforded lots of , laughter, but produced little milling. Hudson and Owen se. conded the latter, and Crawley and Giblett,' Cana Thirty rounds. Twenty..eight minutes had elapsed when the Suffolk Champion was pronounced the victor. The third battle was over in twenty minutes. Pat. Cava nagh (a new Irishman) entered the ring with Stockman,. for 20 sovereigns a-side. Heed and inglish seconded the latter, and Crawley and Holt were for Cavanagh. The Irishman won it by giving Master Stock Man a Tipperary Aug that shook his knowledge boa. all to pieces. • Upon the whole it was a tidy day's play ; no grumbling occured, anti crosses out of the question. CAMBERWELL JUSTICE-ROOM. A numerous gang of London pickpockets assembled at Cam., berwell fair on Monday; and committed the most audacious attacks on the persons and property of the company. So ills. ciplined were they, that all attempts of the police to &wet them in their enterprises proved ineffectual. A bench of Magistrates sat at the Workhouse, before -whom a desperate young thief named Samuel Goddard was brought by Snow, the beadle of Newington, on a charge of having committed a most daring robbery in the fair. Snow stated, that about four o'clock in the afternoon he was standing in the crowd, opposite a wild beast exhibition, where attention was excited at the manteuvres ofa dancing bear, an d whilst their thoughts were thus engaged a tremendous rush task place, by which many persons were pushed down find trampled upon. Several cried out " 1 have been robbed," espe. ciahhy females, who were deprived of their shawls in the most impudent manner. After the confusion had somewhat subsid ed, the prisoner, and many other urchins of his own age, stood before him. One of them said, " There's a chance," and im mediately they all surrounded an infirm lady, who held a little boy in her hand, round whose neck was tied a silk handker chief. Witness watched their operations. and saw theprisoner very dexterously untie the handkerchief from the child's neck, and when a favourable moment offered, he snatched it and backed amongst the crowd, taking to his heels as f as t as b e could. Witness followed him, and succeeded in coming u p to him, when he found the handkerchief in his hand. He took him to the cage, and in Joint; so, a most formidable gang attempted to rescue him, but failed in the attempt. The child from whom the handkerchief was stolen is the son of Mr. 1 Thomas Hunt, of Camberwell, and the old lady was his grand. mother. The prisoner, who was only 11 years old, tdinitted the charge, and said that h e li ve d i n W e bb -square, Shoreditch. tie said that he, and a little boy named Bill JOnes, a playmate of his, had come to the fair, with many others, to pick pockets; that they had stolen ten or a dozen handkerchiefs, but Bill Jokes hid them all in his hat. 'llieytricil to get seve ral gentlemen's watches, but only succeeded in getting one, which Bill Jones had also got. It was agreed that he should stand at a certain place, and whenever any of the gang made (stole) any thing, they were to take it to him, who deposited it in a bag.
