TI—JE SUNa SOLEM Q'JIS AUDXAT? LONDON, JULY 31, ;80,. Lord NgLsorr arrived at Deal on Wednesday night from Chatham, an 4: yesterday morning hoist ed his Flag onboard the Leyden, of 58 guns, in the Dawns. WE this day give farthcr-Extrads from the Paris Pa is which arrived yeste - rday. The fad of the Kuification of the Peace between France , and Portusyd now appears admitted by the conduct of His Most CATHOLIC M 4J EST T , who, accord ing to the Madrid Article, has formally an nounced this paci4cation, a step which he would not, have ventured to have taken, had he not before, hand Been certain of the permission of his Republican Rulers. Of GANTHEAUME we firld no accounts whatever, ' a circumstance which adds to our convidion, that ! the French Admiral has returned withoUt ;hiving effeded, the main object of his voyage, the disem barkation of' his Troops. It is in vain to endea vour to discover - motives for' the concealment of News so, advantageous to the French, did the fast really exist. Neither-the Moniteur, however, nor be journal Des Definseurs de la Patrie, have yet thOught proper to notice his arrival at Toulon. - It is very probable that the Engagement, with the Swiftsure having disabled two of his Ships, may'; have rendered it necessary for him to abandon any design in which he was exposed to the chance of fal liug in with more British Slips; and as lie knew that in whatever Port of ` the . Mediterranean he shhUld be found by Sir J. B. WARR EN, he must there remain without hopes - of relief, he may have been - induced to - return to :Toulon as the only place of safety. • A private Letter from Cadiz is stated to have been received. at Far;:, which says that the English Admiral's Ship had, in consequence of the injury it sustained in the 13ay of A/gesiras, sunk on entering Gibraltar. Sir J. SAULTAREZ'S Flag was hoisted on board the Casey., according to the last accounts frptn his Squadron.: We do not suppbse it is this Ship the French wish to represent as having been lost, but the Po, , ,ve'e. We are, however, as much inclined to disbelieve .the account with respe& to the ore as to the other. , TIA Hambxrgh Nfq due on Wednesday, had not arrived when this Paper was put to Press. Yesterday evening His Excellency Count BER.N sToKFF set out for Knowle, - in Kent, to pay his compliments to the Dutchess of DORSET, and Lord NVHITWORTII, pre6ously to his leaving England. The - brave 4.9 th Regiment has returned on hoard the divison of the Bal tic Feet under. Admiral POLE, Ilas been lauded at Cork. The Both Regiment - , lying at ;sea Barracks, Are to embark inimediately for-Jersey. The Passengers on board the•Swiftsure,, are five Gentlemen, amQvg whom are a Colonel, a Captain, the Parser . of the Tigre, and Captain of Marines of the Northumberland. At the Assizes at Maidstone, there was a cause iron its novelty, excited an uncommon de.. gree of attention ; such a circumstance has not oc. curred for half a century; it was a trial of a Writ of Right, in which Sir Jokl'Hokywoov was Plain tiff against Lord GWYDII2, to recover-a piece of land. The Jury consisted of sixteen Knights.-- After a long discussion, a verdict was given in fa your of Sir JOHN WO 9 D • • At . Cambridge Assizes, a cause, in which the Duke of BFDFORD was Hlaintiff,• and the Rev. Dr. BAYL EY, Defendant, respeCting a road, tried by a Special Jury, terminated in favour of the Plaintiff; after a trial of about ten hours. Sixty-seven Departments of the French Republic have been found, in the late enumeration, to contain a p(pulation of 24,397,443. In, 1790, tbe_pumbcr of the inhabitants of the same territories was only 71,176,;t43. •A new system of weights and measures is ordered by Law, fo - r use in.Fiance, from the . zet of Sevtem~ ber next. Standard weights and pleasures of this system are now distributed throughout the. Depart- Merits. • Lady Cocumt, has fortunately recovered mast of her diarnonds,from the ruins of her Ladyship's botise, which was burnt down in :tippr Seyruour— street.

AQUATIC SPORTS. SAILINC MATCH. Yesterday the following Pleasure-boats sailed from Blackfriars-bridge to Putney, and back ro Vauxhall, for a Silver Cup and Cover given by Mr. SMITH, the proprietor of the winning boat at the last match. 1. The Caroline, James Turner. Westminster. 2. The Mercury, John Astley, Lanibeth. 3. The Experiment, J. Allen, London. • 4. Calypso, J. Chambers, Westminster. • 5. Switt, Richard Thompson, Nine Elms. 6. Mermaid, R. Moore, lltingeford. 7. Vixen, J. Fairbrotlier, Westminster. None above ten tons btirthen were admitted. At a quarter past five o'clock,' the above seven boats started (being distinguished by the number of spots marked on the pendant, with a brisk gale from the S. W. The first was . a very long tack, without any apparent advantage on either side; but, on hauling to windward, the Caroline got ahead of the Mermaid and Vixen; close upon the heels of both appeared the Mercury, and in that order they went through the arches of Westminster-bridge. Continuing on the same tack, the Vixen got a-stern, and the Mermaid got a-head of the Mercuty. On weathering the point at Chelsea., the wind flattened into a calm, when the Caroline, in doubling the Cape, .was overtaken by both the Mermaid and Mercury ;—the sail continued in the same order fill they arrived at Putney-Bridge, when the two latter had left the other boats a considerable dis tance behind. The Mercury and the Mermaid con tinued for a short time nearly along-side each other ; but a fa'vourable breeze springing up, the Mermaid again got a-head :—unfortunately, in coming in, the helmsman lost the prize, by not steering round the Boat stationed off Cumberland Gardens, he not making the tack in proper time—cor;sequently the Mercury won the prize. This is the fourth cup Mr. AsTLEY, jun, has won in the same boat, VAUXHALL ROWING MATCH. The Annual Wherry was yesterday rowed for by the following Boats : • - a S P. Girard - - Westminster -e W.

The contest was be tween the above, '''and was decided in less than an hour in favour of Cannon and Birch, , It was a fair match, no foul play being pradiscd. The afternoon was delightfully pleasant on tlle water ;. we do not recoiled ever seeing a greater. variety of boats, or more genteel company. the Duke of York's Band played on the platform, erea ed on the Royal Exchange AsSurance Barge, rowed up and down the river.. The banks were crowded, 'and the bridges were covered; happily no other accident happened, than a Gentleman ;Ambling over board, he hiving been too ardent in his devotions at the shrine of Bacchus. He was picked up after having mixed a little water with his - wine. The Hamilton Races commenced on Wednesday se'nnight. The subscription of zo guineas each, seven subscribers, was gained by Mr. FL ETCHER'S Otranto.

Thursday, a Purse of soh the gift of the Duke of MARLBOROUGH, was won by Sir C., BUNBURY'S b. h. Sorceier. A few days since Mr. ENINtOT, of Peckham-Rye, having suspeded',that his garden had been robbed, set a large ra p in the most accessible part, and on his. arrival. in the morning, discovered that ,his prey had escaped from the snare, at the expence of part. of the shoe, stocking, and flesh, which still adhered to the teeth of the trap;. which not being in a perC - ta state of repair, was not sufficient to se cure its viainv who 'must nevertheless have been severely punished fur his tederity. - THE THEATRE, Haymarket , THE new Pantomime of The Corsair, o r, The Italian Nuptials, drew almost as large an Audience to this Theatre last night as on its first representa tion. It went off on the whole more smoothly, and, being somewhat retrenched, with more spirit. If, as we - said, -the Piece is not recommended by' ' much novelty of fable or incident, it is supported by such beauty and splendour of scenery; such merit in the acing, and such rich - and varied harmony, that it well deserves the proteffion of the town. There is one great arid ne.. - Al.ess absUrdity in the condutt of this Piece, or rather of the Herd,'which we are siirprized that Mr. H. jOitiiSTON, whc performs it so well, should have overlooked.-- , When The Corsair assumes the chess of a Fisher. man, in order to make a second attempt tG bear away Fiorito, he attacks her with brutal pas sion, while her husband and his friends are on the stage, thus frustrating his own artifice, and ren. dering his disguise. useless. This absurdity appears in the rival of 01,-ar, who assumes the garb of a Pedlar, and betrays himself to Mali na , in the same foolish way. The Piece was very well received, and is likely to become very artraCtive through the season„lJl effea that, at least, is well deserved by the Mafia., ger, the Musical Composer, and the Performers it% general. IRREGULAR ODE TO LIBERTY. FROM THE ISISCE4,LANLOIJS ROIMS OF WILL I4:14 THOMAS FITZGERALO, ESQ. OFFSPRING of licav'n we bend to thee, Sweet smiling Goddess Liberty ! Thy presence we adore ; Still with thy fay'rite Isle resiclr, And constant as the powing tide, Thy energies restore That fell Security may'ne7cr prove, The grave of Freedom, and of Rublie Love: For ah ! on ev'ry side, appears The rusting hand of fleeting years, And dire Corruption's blast ; . Thy Athens once so blest, and free Is curs'd with chains and infamy, And Sparta's pride is past ! . Long halt thou left the fertile vales of Greece ; And with thee vanish'd Valour, Arts, and Peace Then sighting on Italia's shore, Thy temples rose to tame once more, And Rome thy sway confess'd ; • But civil rage, and thirst of pow'r, More fierce than Vandals to devour Estrang'd her from thy breast. At length, by Vice, and Faction headlong drivin, Rothe fell, deserted both by thee and Heavin I Then as this Isle thou hover'st o'er, • Doubtful to shun, or seek the shore S way'd by a Tyrant's hand ; The Barons felt thy balmy breath, Ana braving dancer, chains, and death, . They wood thee to plc 1414. Firmly thou stood'st with brow serene, While bending millions hail'd their Queen Despotic Pow'r, at Or.Ce, gave way, Like yielding night to breaking da.ri The iron reign of stern Control, No more appall'd the gen'rous soul ; No more repress'd those gloating Ares, Whichsfrepdorn in the breast inspires ; Nat'arz, from galling fetters free, Temper'd Command with Liberty ! 4nd from that happy moment thou hast prov'd The constant guardian of this Isle belov'd„ Hear Goddess ! hear our ardent pray'r, Still be this envied soil thy care, • And never quit our Shore ! In Britain's! Councils still preside s • And constant as the sowing tide, Thy energies restore That fell Security nay never prove, The grave of Freedom, and of Public Love young LACY, the son of theformer.Proprieror. of Drury-lane Theatre, and who is engaged at Covent-Garden for next season, is performing wirri success the principal tragic eh:traders at Lewes. He possesses more good sense and knowledge of his• art than most of the present race of theatrical Per formers, and really oversteps them as-much in me rit as in stature. • It seems to be moot-point whether the usual frequenters of the Stage-Boxes at the Haymarket -Theatre, but particularly on the King's side, or the' Aaors speak4oudest, but it is certain that the former disturb the Audience nearly ,as much as the latter entertain them. JoHN 13uo, used formerly to take his_ station in the Pit, and resolutely express his, resentment against any interruption of his amuse ments. The Aaors are very much annoyed l)y this praaice, but are afraid to indicate any notice of it lest they. should incur the charge of disrespeet towards the Public. To the Public therefore the remedy belongs, and it 'is to. he hoped that they will soon apply it, as the complaint seems at present to rage with great violence. A certain well&nown Military charaaer,. it 1 5 said, means to have all his Coal Carts made upon the model of LordWHITWORTWS Russian. Cara van, The Caricature Shops have made him carry his coals himself ; but such a degrading office he has, probably, held in contempt, since he assumed the dignity of Literature, and favoured the world with an 'account of his surprising adventures and i iVound, opinions. .
