Cpetitiii and Cit His, of Jesus College, Cambridge, visited those Sources on tht 4th of March. The Peasants residing on the spot related the same story that prevailed in the time of HOMER ; namely, that one of the Springs i during winter, was very hot, and the other cold. As the only winter the Turki: had this year, took place precisely at the time of this visit, it was 4 fair opportunity to estimate the temperature of the Springs. For this purpose they used the Thermo meter of Celcius, add the result proved that they are both Hot Springs. • The first observation was made on the evening of the 4th of March, at sunset. The heat of the atmosphere was then 8+ degrees above freezing, ac. cording to the scale niche Thermometer before-men tioned. Placed in the Hot Spring, the mercury rose in two minutes to 164. It was then taken to what they call the Cold Spring; which issues from many mouths out of a rock of pudding stone ; and thence takes the name .of /Geri Gbies, or :Forty Ejet.— Here the same cad took place, the mercury rising to 16! ; the surface of the rocks whence the water issued, and the water itself, being sensibly warm to . . the hand. Afterwards observatios were made in all the other mouths of the same Spring, and With the same result. • 'The same observations were re newed at midnight, at sunrise, and at midday ;. whence it appeared that the. Sources of this river are in no degree affected by any change in the tempera ture of the atmosphere. The mercury always rose in the water.to 16.1, and if the tube was thrust far into the apertures froM whence the water issued, before it became exposed to the atmosphere, the . mercury rose as high as 17 degrees, a difference of of a degree taking place in the water before and af ter its exit. Those .Travellert afterwards accompanied the Vtaoit to its source.• It issues all at once from a perpendicular rock' on the western side of Mould Ida, at the base of Gatgarns. The temperature of the water at its source, is only six degrees of Celcius above freezing. Close to the source of the Siinsit, is a"watin spring which falls into the river, and in which the heat is exaelly the same as in the sources of the. ticanraptder, the mercury rising to 161. — They altetWards ascended to the top of Garga,mt, now called A. - asdagki. Its summit is so difficult of access, that the inhabitants have never visited it. It is covered with pet ennial snow, and in some place a glacier. From this point ) the descent of the mountain to the promontory of Cape Baba, or Leartm, is as regulates the gradation of a stair,case, perfett ly answering to the char:tact given of it by Homy a. The .41,1'?:ervItemic Gallo, now called tits: Pulpit of /droinytt, or Itydrtnetytt, is falSely laid down in all the Maps. • It skirtS she base of Gargarus, passing quite round to the North-Eastern 'extremity of that mountain.

The above fishermen have not hitherto derived much profit from the season, in some degree owing to the, annoyance they have experienced from the unusual number of tiog.fiql, which have not only made great havock among the mackarel, but also proved farther injurious by having, from their aeli vity and strength, done considerable damage to their nets, Tut OPERA.,-.The Comic Opera of La Prinet. pelsa`Filo.rofa r notwithstanding the advanced state •of the Season, is so well supported by Vister, 'that it was numerously attended last night.

Admiralty in Prancei On this statement, his Lordship said, three questions arose, • First, Whether there Was any implied warranty that. this Ship should be furnished with, all the papers and documents necessary to every. American ship ? Secondly, Whether In'fait the Carolina had on board all such papers ? And Thirdly, Whether the condemnation proceeded on the ground that she had not on board such docu. •ments as were required by the . Treaty between France and America, or whether it had proceeded on the lows of their own Country -.solely on the Ordinances of Prance t It would be unnecessary to enter into the first of these three questions; and therefore they (the Court) desired it to be - under. stood that they did not then give any opinion, upon that question. , The Court were of opinion the sentence of condemnation proceeded on the ground of French Ordinances, and not on Treaty. It was stated that she was condemned' for the want of two papers—a proper Passport and a Certificate. Ey the Treaty, the Passport was good for a year, unless she returned into her original port within that period, This ship sailed on the 30th of January,. r 791, And was captured in December in the same year, and therefore the Passport was good, according to the Treaty. As to the other Paper, the certificate, which , corresponded to our manifest, that Wits agreeable to the 25th Article of the Treaty. It appeared that 'she had all the necessar7 Papers on' board, and that nothing was wanting.

The Prisoner was tried before Lord Kgr rozs s and a Special jury, at Westminster, the sittings after the last term. He was brought up early in this Term, and his Case was heard. He came now into Court to receive its judgement and as the Case is in its nature vet,' important to'all the Poor of this country, to the Overseers and Ma.. gistrates who have, the care of providing for them until they sire capable of providing for themselves, and to all those who have humanity enough to in» terest themselves in their fate (a class which con stituteb we hope, the hulk of the community xn which we live), we have detailed the Address deli. vered by Mr, jt/Vilet Goose, who spoke to the.
