fainted, and was carried down by the stream to the C. , ticorde, where his head struck against the tk of the btidge. The blow tnr unately brought hint to his senses, and he gained one of the Ott:. Heie he sat, endeavouring with his hands to s'op the blood, which poured c:,pionsly from his wro:ds. After scme time, tearing that he might aerish for want of assis;ance, as the night approach. ed, he colleded.all his strength, and plunged into the water, if possible to gain the shore. When he was within a few paces he grew so faint he could swim no longer. A man and a woman happened to be on the age of the river ; and at length got hold of his arm and drew him on shore; but seeing the blood flow from his wounds, they fled with terror. Vasselin then proceeded towards the bath, where he arrived after several falls. His, friends had been in search of him; he fainted in the arms of one, after having only strength to declare that he had been attacked and wounded in the river. He was carried to ltil. Demantort's, where two Surgeons being called in, declared his wounds to be dangerous. — Contrary to their expeElation, holvever,he recovered. Such were the extraordinary fails which appealed on the trial. The Tribunal having heard the Counsel for the accused, adjourned the sentence to the following day. The President, on that day, summed up the whole evidence to the Jury, who, after two hours' deliberation, found the accused guilty ; and the Tribunal condemned him to ten years imprisonment. The prisoner having heard his sentence, said, with great audacity, ' 6 .1 am either guilty or innocent of this charge ; I merit either death, or act l uittal: but I know how to withdraw myself from the horrors of imprisonment."

Fifteen sail from Demerara, as well as se. veral other Vessels from different Islands for this Purr, are, we are informed, in the Fleet,_ LEWES, JAN. 13.—Last Thursday a Trading Sloop heavily laden, was captured about a league from the shore, of Newhaven, in the presence °fa great number of spedators, by a French Lugger Privateer, that itu." mediately after gave chace to the Ouse, a little Ves sel 'laden with pipeclay and houSehold furniture, belonging to Mi. BKOV(N, of the above place, who the next day received information that she had escaped, by running into Shoreham harbour. The Privateer in chace of the Sloop off Seaford and Blechington, was fired at from the Batteries of both places, but without any effeEt. The Newhaven Sea Fencibles evinced great spirit on this occasion, by manning a Qun-vesiel that mounted two eighteen pounders, with a view of giving the Enemy a meet. ing ;, but their commerdable endeavours proved of no avail, as an adverse wind and tide prevented, their clearing the harbour before the approach of night. There is some reason to fear that the captured Sloop was freighted . with butter, the property of some Merchants in this town, who consequently feel interested in the event. The Creole Frigate, from Jamaica, has been burnt at sea, proving very leaky. The Theseus has been seen in the Crooked Island Paasage, in company with a French Frigate, her prize. L Capt.

WAR;EN, froth Sr. Vincent's, arrived at Portsmouth, spoke on the ifith inst. the Sally, Capt. PENT, from the West Indies, bound to London, in great distress, being very leaky, and having four feet water in her hold. The Artkur, Capt. Holy E, was lately cut out of Gtenatta by French-Privateer, .which had been in the harbour five days without beirg discovered. • .Captain EYANS, of the Royal Navy, is 4ppbint ed to the command of the Sea Fencibles on the roast of Ireland, from Cork Head to Youghan, both inclusive.

THE PRINCE OF WALES'S ROYAI. VOLTINTEERS. —Yesterday this Corps was inspetled on their parade in the _upper Mews by Lieut. Colonel JENKINSON, at twelve o'clock. The Corps after. wards marched' to Hyde Park, whither the In. ,speding Officer attended them, for the -purpose of seeing them manoeuvre. This was not orginally intended, and they were not furnished with powder..--They meant merely, after the inspection, to have an ordinary Field-day in the Green Park, their usual place of exercise, but a s the ROYAL FAMILY were in town, they did not wish to appear in that Park without the particular permission of Hrs MAJESTY. To obtain this Mr. ADDINGTON' was applied to. He seemed flattered by the attention, and promised to mention the cir., cumstance to the KING, but as no answer was re turned to tile application, the probability is that he never mentioned it at all. In consequence of this, the Corps would not presume to appear, much less to fire in the Green Pitt*, which accounts for their not hav ing been supplied with cartridges, and they therefore marched on, tip Constitution Hill, to Buckden Hill, 'in Hyde Park, where aley formed, and went through column on e o v n olu r t ig io h n ta soLc l l e ta f n t g c i o n in g p f a r , o ,i n es t : forming close and charging, all of which were executed S' much to the satisfac tion of the Inspeifling Officer, that he said he would report the Corps fit for immediate service. Ii _marching to and' fairing from their ground in Hyde Park, the Corps pradiced diminishing. and increas ing their front from companies to sub-divisions and sedtions, withconsiderable regularity. They march, ed down Constitution_ Hill on their return, and pass ed .Buckingham-house abant' half-past four_ in opera column of soh-divisions, but we did not see any of the ROYAL FAMILY at the windows. The Corps took the circuit of the Bird-cage Walk, and so marched home to their parade which it was nearly dark be.. fore they reached, They ntastered yesterday near. ly 600. Lord MoiR.A has been afiliaed with a cold in his eyes ; .but is, according to a letter from Edinburgh of the zxst instant, in a fair way of recovery. The Volunteer Corps in Scotland have got titeit routes to match immediately in case of ►nvasion,. upon seeing the signals for an enemy ha►ing landed. The tsth Regiment of the Army . of Reserve last week marched into Berwick.. . Yesterday se'nnight the Sea Fencibles at Berwick- -. upon. Tweed, mustered on board the Britannia, the 'first of the Berwick Smacks 2..rrned after a plan recommended by Government, that has entered tho, - Tweed. After going through various manoeuvres , of attack and defence, greatly to their ot.ytt credic and the satisfaEtion of the speetators, they conclud l ed with a discharge of it rounds from "six carro t nades, in such rapid succession as to F orm almost one uninterrupted roar for several minutes. Two Troops of the Fuurth, Dragoons rflarclieci from Brighton on Friday, into the new. Barracks near. Lewes. A Court-Martial is at present sitting at theßoy2i Marine Barracks, Chatham, to try Lieut. CORT7IOI 4 O for having sent a Challenge to an Officer senipt 0 himself. Yesterday se'nnigb t being HER MA Jr.sry's Birth day, the Hon. Mr. GORDON'S Troop of Cavalry assembled at Stockeld Park, near Wetherby, York• shire, where they went through their several mill• tAry evolutions with great exadness, and had their Colours presented by the Countess of ABERDEEN ; of er which they all partook of a most sumptuous dinner, and the evening was spent with the utmost harmony and conviviality. On Saturday last between forty and fifty respeet-_ able householders of Lewes, who are not liable to be called out in the first or second classes of the Army-en.masse, volunteered their services as-Espe cial Constables, in aid of the Civil Power, in case d Invasion, and were sworn in accordingly. - Of this Civil Corps Sir H. BLACKMAN has been appointed Major Commandant. Shoußl the Country be thrown into confusion by the approach of the Enemy, or by his aaually landing, the above will be found a mos t essential service, as it regards the safety of both person and property, against foreign and domestic invaders.; and therefore, wc think, cannot be too generally adopted throughout the Kingdom. Yesterday se'nniet four men were dischar" from the Army of Reserve, by the Deputy Lieotc7 i om i ts o f Newcastle, in consequence of having fits and other disabilities, under which they laboured pre.. vinus-to.their inrollment, and which they then con' sealed. They were c.)mmitted to g aol on charges (: , perjury, and obtaining money by false pretences. The Birmingham Society, united for the preven. tion . uf f ra udulentbankruptcies, swindling, &c. an for the punishment of those who may be detected such prauices, have a: - •pinted a Committee of GO', timer) to form a code of rules for thegovernmenr os; the Society.
