BOSTON, LINCOLNSHIRE, APRIL 17.-A letter Las very recently been received in this town fwut a Gentleman residing at St. Helena. The Writer (on whose veracity we can rely) ttates that Long- Wood-house the future residence of BuoNAriivra, is nearly finished. The Corsican is by no means a favourite with the inhabitants of this island, owing to the great expellee he puts them to in giving'balls, &c. and also on account of the great loss they experience by vessels not being allowed to touch there as before. BUONAPARTE generally spends the morning in shooting, and in the after. noon he takes a rde, accompanied by all his Ge nerals in full uniform; his own dress is extreme ly simple, and he never wears any uniform. He is paying great attention to the English language, enteringlinto familiar conversation with the.work men employed in fitting up his house ; he speaks English much hat& than when he •first : went. On political subjec:s he is extremely guarded, seldom making any observations of that nature; at times be appears melancholy. . • The Bakers raised the price of bread yesterday, three farthings in the quarternloaf, though Wheat has ouly,_4len thre.c..._0r.„..14 most,. lout, shalinga per quarter, and of that rise, one half at. least had existed but for two days. Thus are the commu nity sacrificed to foul and lawless combination. Bread is at a price which would fully maintain the proiperity of the Landowner and Farmer, and these classes are suffering almost ruin from the low tess of the price of produce. Intermediate Fore- . at idlers swallOw up the Lair profit which ought to go to the grower, as well as the uujtistifiable simulation of cost imposed upon the Consumer ! ! Yesterday, at Carlton-House, the PRINCE ItE;- GENT inspected the Silver Cuir►tsses of BUONA• Palm's Officers of the Guard,which,Mr. But.LocK purchased in Pdris, and brought over as an ad denda to his Exhihition of the Carriage, &c. We bear that RUSTAN, the Mameluke, is also coming over•. The Earl of LIVERPOOL' was better yesterday. The Marchioness D'OsmoND, the French Am bassador's Lady, and suite, arrived yesterday from France. The King of . SARDINIA hiss, by an edict of the Ist of March, given the Jews a delay of five years to ,sell the humpeahle property which they had acquired under the former Government. In fu ture, however, their condition avill be upon the 'bole bettered, foi they may freely exercise all trades and professions, and are not to wear any distinctive badge. • Private letters by the French Mail state the ar rival of the Princess from the Brazils, the be trothed Consort of FERDINAND VII. The Puitress is stated to have arrived at Cadiz. about ten days ago. - _ it appears by a letter received from Captain ?viten-obi, of the ship Atlas, bound to New South 'Wales, with 200 male convicts, that they were all well oil Madeira on thc 14th Fehruary,list, hit had experienced nothing but gales of wind since they left Portsmouth, on the 23d January last. The convicts were genera* healthy. An American' Paper has a letter from Baltimore, dated Feb. 12, mentioning that the Chevalier de ONts was expected to embark at that port for !Spain ; and ,that the misunderstanding between that country and the United States was of a most serious description. ' By 'the American Papers we have accounts from Hayti to it late date. A splendid celebration of t liar kit independence took place early in January. A Dutch paper says that many burglaries, and - ');1 even murders, have beets recently committed at ii Faris, of which the perpetrators have not, bean discovered. . It may be useful 'to remark , that notivithstand , • ine the clamour which many tradesmen have tai3,e4 against the Insolvent' Act, it appears, by . an investigation of the return made of those who have applied to be discharged under it, that nearly. :.• \ 99 out of every 100, persons were actually en -1 i gaged in trade. On Tuesday evening mast, four fellows, dressed " Oentletnen, went into a coffee-house in Vii- lier's-'street, Strand ; whence they: stole a new green silk umbrella, value 1/. 16a, Passing the •. : ,•,i ,bar on going out, one of them said,: " I never beatd such language," This was merely a ruae, ..,, ' 1 0 divert attention.

The late Newtaarket Meetin was tlie most numerous that has been known since the memo rable Hanibletonian race. The Austrian Ambas sador., who wished to be present at the running between Sir Joshua and Mho da Puta, was, with many others, detained on the road for want of horses, ,and was thus unfortunately 'deprived of the sport. The Hon. Mr. NEVILLE has been offered 10,000 guineas for his horse Sir Joshua. We know not why it is, but so it is, that.per sons who came into life in the month of April , are not generally supposed t o h a ve many conjuring faculties about them. From this opinion, we pre sume, arose. the custom of calling the first of ibis month April 'Fool-day. Certain it is, however, that in this month last year came forth, that the possession of which (even if he were born in April) would give the owner the reputation of a Soloutirn 4 , we allude to the two Prizes of 30,0001. sold by Bisti, and drawn on the very day:of which this is the Anniversary. The recollection of this will no doubt (as there are two Prizes of 30,0001. in the present Lottery), induce many to pay a visit at Charing Cross or Coruhill, before night. , RICHARDSON, GOODLUCK, and CO. respectfully solicit the patronage of the Public, in the present State Lottery, which begins drawing on t h e 14 t h of May— The Scheme, though consistin g of 6000 Tickets less than tbelast, contains two Prizes of 30,0001., besides 50 other'Capitals.
