Our Gazette says, the Dedor of WURTEMBURGH has requested the mediaticin of Russsia with respedt to his dispute with the States ; and that a Russian Note on that sobjtft has been given in at Vienna. HAGUE, Nay. o.—All Ships which arrive in Holland from the western coast of Italy are ordered to perform a stria quirantine ; but all which arrive from Cadiz, I, , ,ghurn, Gibraltar, and Alicant, as Well as those from Malaga, arc at once turned away. A Private Letter from Hamburgh says, " you may depend upon this very interesting fad, that the Austrian Ambassador has made arrangements for his immediate departure from the Court of Peters. burgh ; and that ere now he has left that Capital on his return to Fienna. The Emperor of Austria and the Etnpernr of the French have agreed on the At. tack and Conquest of Turkey, and permission or connivance has been promised for the march of French Troops through Moravia and Galicia to ef. feet their projel of ambition. The pretended cause, however, of the departure of the Austrian Ambassador from Peretsburgh, is the 'refusal on the part of ALPAANDER to comply with the contents of a Note or Remonstrance against the recent oc. cupancy by the Russian Forces of Corfu, anti other places in the Mediterranean, and the formidable re. inforcements which are constantly arriving there. This will produce a total change in the aspen of affairs on the Continent ;' and it it induce the•KING of hatSSTA to a system of vigorous aaivity against France, ''the con4equonees may be happy for man. kind, as 13bWAPARTEtil plans are founded in Univer. sal conquest.

The House was but thinly attended, THE THEATRE.—The Tragedy of Hamlet was represented .ztt Drury.lane Theatre on Saturday. ELLISTON, for the first time, assumed 44 the glass of fashi6n and the mould of form," the: Prince of Denmarl. We have not room to enter into an'ex. ommation of his performance, which was creditable to his abilities, but by no means one of his best achievements. He was most successful in the pas. sages which requirpd energy, hut wanted variety, his brow being knit into a frown almost during his whole performance. His pauses were so tediously lung, that the ,representation was protraBed much beyond the. usual period. The House was tolerably well attended. KtmeLe, we find, a %ally stole a march to Lei. cester last week, and saw the Young Rescius in Ham. la and Richard,—The fay'} is, that change of air Was advised as necessary to his . recovery, and t he e xpedition combined health and curiosity. But, it seems, that it was a matter of business also, as some arrangements were to be finally adjusted respecting the engagement of the juvenile wonder, at Covent. garden Theatre. KEt , astAt returned on Saturday, and little BETTY is expetted in town this day, an event of great importance in the theatrical world. Such was the admiration which the Young Roscius excited during his late theatrical visit to Stock. port, that when it was understood that he had con. sewed to stay an additional night, and perform Ric/Patti, according to the account of a Manchester P a per, '' the bells struck up a lusty peal in his honour ! !" On Monday evening, during the representation at the Theatre at Hinckley, the Gallery, which was crowded with people, gave way, and the greater part of it fell into the, Pit. Several Ladies and others were severely bruised by the accident, but no lives are likely to be lost. A young Lady of considerable fortune has with. in these tew days made an elopement from her friendi in the City, on a visit to the accommodat. ing Blacksmith of Gretna-Green. The happy . com. paniun of her journey, a young fellow just out of his apprenticeship, which he served to a gold. hater Miss PATTIRSON, tl►e wife of Paola BONA PARTE, was burn at Magherafeldt, in, the North of Ireland, and was for some time educated in that town, where, and about which, many of her rela. tives reside, and her family are much respeeted.

Lord EAR,LEY, on passing through Windsor on Wednesday last, saw a crowd colleCted, and, on in. quiring thecause, was told, that a poor Clergyman's goods had been seized for a debt,of 471. which his Lordship immediately' paid. The good people of St. Clement's Danes cannot be said to be so precise as to mOve by dock , work, for the church.dial has been at a stand for some weeks, and nobody seems to have taken any notice of it. This morning five waggons, containing the trea. sure taken out of the Spanish Frigates detained by the Squadron under the Command of Capt. Moo K passed through the Strand.

About three feet of water has been let into the London Dock, in order to try the foundation and cement, previous to its being filled. Every exer. torn is using towards completing the, wharf, ware. house, and entrance, so that it may be ready to receive shipping before the expiration of the year. This Duck, which , is 1263 feet by -690, equal to 20 acres, is for the accom►nodatio►n of such vessels, from all parts (►he East and West India Shipping excepted), who chuse to use it ; but those loaded _with tobacco, rice, wines, a►.d brandy, are, by the AA, compelled to unload in the Dock.

A severe Shock of an Earthquake has, lately been felt on the West Coast of Sumatra, in consegnence of which the Sea inundated the coast for a consider. able distance, washed ,away several Native Hutsi and on its retreating, left several of the small Trading Craft in the Country far, beyond high. water mark. A Letter from Madras states, that the Corps of Militia composed of the Company's Civil Ser vants, and other Inhabitants of the Fort and Black Town, .have been re-established, and embodied on. der new and irnproved regulations of that Pre. aideney„ All the Palanquin-bearers on the Frontiers of Guzzerat, employed by individuals, have been inus. wed for conveyance of, provisions, stores, &c. to the Army. Intelligence has been received at Banal*, at the date of the last Dispatches, that some Natives of distinction on the Isle of Bourbon had been arrested by order of the Government, under suspicion of treasonable praelices. We understand that AMR ur Row, Brother of the PRISIIWA,, has written so 1-16ocatt, proposing an accommodation between him and SeiNDl4l.ll, but that the proposition has been indignantly 'rejeCted by the latter. We have been favoured with a Copy 9f a Letter from an Officer in the British Army in Guzzerat, slated July so, giving an account of the occurrence which tumour had magnified• into a defeat of one of out Detachments. The fan was simply this : A Column of the Army, under the orders of Colonel MONSON, was led into an ambush in the Mountains by his Guides ; the pass afforded .great advantage to the assailants; and their attack was in the high. est degree ardent and resolute ; but such was the steady valour of our people, that the Enemy wets compelled to fly, leaving a great number of killed and Wounded behind. A Letter from the City of St. Domingo, dated 27th August, observes, that for two months there had not been a single arrival there : Several Arne. ricanYessels had, however, been condemned there on the most frivolous pretences. One belonging to BUCHANNAN, and BONSIS, of Baltimaie, was adjudged a legal prize, because " Mr. BONSIS is married to a Mulatto woman, and of course must be a Brigand." Another, having a few barrels of pork and hams, was condemned, it being allptged, that the British consider pork and hams as con. traband." The Letter adds, that the American Seamen detained at Maragua were perishing from want, 8o having died within a month. On Saturday sennight the house of Mr. Bailey (an elderly Gentleman), at Layton, near Black. pool, Lancashire, was broken into, and 800 gui. neas stolen thcreout. The thieves got off undis., covered. A Gentleman, on experiencing a considerable run of ill luck at a fashionable gaming-house west of Temple-bar, exclaimed in a paroxysm of rage and disappointment, Zounds I how is it that I can never stumble, even by chance, on 'Fortune ?"—A friend whispered him, 14 The chances here are all against you—you don't understand the game : rut your stake in a Lottery ; there the chances are all equal."—This happened a little previous to the last Lottery. The Gentleman followed the advice, and gained a considerable Share of one of its highest Capitals. Will this Gentleman risk his Prize at the West End of the Town ? No, most assuredly ; though he will probably commit a small part of it to the ground from whence it sprung in order to reap, by the same kind chance, a still more plenti. ful harvest. The ground lies due East of Temple. bar, namely, at Cooper's Hall, where one of the most capital and inviting Lotteries in the whole annals of Fortune's Wiwi, curnuienccs drawing in January, 03,4 CE INDIANS. Ws lately mentioned that twelve Chigs of this ion had arrived at Washington, with proffers of frienthhip to the American Government. We have since received the following account of them, and of a very uncommon association of some Reptiles in their country, communicated by M. Chouteau, of Louisiana; who accompanied the Embassy, and who, from long commercial intercourse, is intimately etc. Tainted with their manners, &c. This tribe comprises about igoo warriors; they live in two Settlements on the Osage River, about gob miles up the Missouri. They are gigantic stature, the men being all above six feet high, well proportioned, of uncommon strength, and equal) , ferocious. M. Chouteau hair a woman who had been taken prisoner from a nation living, on the borders of the Pacific Ocean. M. Choutcau has presented to the President of the United States a toad, or a frog, of sirgular appear ance. It resetnbles a. long tortoise, very fl.tr, cover. ed with scales of a dark grey colour, a short tail, ant! a head formed like that of a buffalo, ornarrvn:- rid with six horns. It lived four month 3 with M. Choutcau without taking any othr nourishnh.nt than a little water, which was given to it from time to time. This species of frog is cumin min the. Prairies within the Q,age territory; and w hat it extraordinary, they live in association with a 4pt... cies of ground squirrel' 4;\(.1 sloe : ies of snake. These associations occupy ao arra of from one to two acres of ground---from the stufac:e ate a number o f h o les which communicate' vvirh their subterranean habit.). tion ; it is kept free from dilit or _grass by tfic squirrells, which are of 'a . v•ery brown colour, ; o ge . tails, slender make, -and very. affive.

Two Naval Officers belnngin'T to an Armed Ship in Ltthg , Reach, some dayi'binee, went Or: O mit , at Greenhithe to deterthine. a point of horour. • One of them theastired twelve .paces, -.but the other de clared he would not fight unless they held the oiOpo. site corners of an . handkerchief, and fiteal together. This was obj:ftled to ; and • they returned c. board Without further breach of the peace. S atur d a y at Marlborough -street, a mvdern Who calls himself Gad Swallow, was charged with stealing a fur.tippet and some other articles, the property of a lady, in Margaret.streer, Cavendish. square, on Friday evening. The Prisoner called on the Prosecutrix to pay her a friendly visit, he haV.. ing formed an intimacy with her on the evening preceding at Covent Garden Theatre. • The Lady retired or a few minutes, leaving her enammatta in her apartment, and on her return she met him on the stairs with part of her tippet hanging trout his surtout. 'He was detained, and with assistance secured. .03 searching further, a quizxing.glais, a, tan, and other articles were missing, which were bound on the Prisoner, who expresse,l his astonish. ment that they should construe the joke into a ail., honourable att. lie was remanded for at second ex. amination. Strurday morning a very hard fight took place in the awling-greeniields, Pancras, between liebrr. N hrickmaker, and - jaws, 4 drover. After having fought 4.3 minutes, James was declared the vidor, he having given his antagonist an unlucky m ow o n the hack of the head, which leaves little hopes of his recovery. . On Friday afternoon a country farmer, from Es. sex, was accosted on Snow-hill by a genteel dressed man, who, after' passing some civilities, inquired after some friends in the country, and, aim's% the rest, asked after a Reverend Gentleman, whosmi he represented to have been at College with ; he was likewise anxious to hear about a brother of the far. otter's, who had settled in America. On this the Countryman proposed that they should go to some house and talk over the affair. They accordingly retired to a house in the neighbourhood of.Shoe_ lane, and, in a back parlour, found three Accent • looking men, who did not appear to notice them. Wine being clornished, and the health of Mr. B. being given by the stranger, the farmer observed, that he had a diamond ring belonging to that Geo. tleman in his possession to get repaired, but that, unfortunately, he had left the jeweller's direelion at hoine. It now grew dark, and a pressing invi. tation.vvaa given to the countryman to go to the playhouse to meet the wife of his friend, and an agreeable party, and from thence to go home, to sup and sleep at his house. About this time the three strangers retired. The fear. of pickpockets operated for same time strongly in the fiirtliCel mind; but on its being represented to him that these gentry seldom or ever assailed the left side fob, he put into it the ring, his pocket-book and notes, and proceeded for the Theatrei and atter passing through Clare-market, the strangtir stopped on some pretence, when three men ran against the countryman, and knocked him down, and, rolling him in the kennel, made off'. At this instant the pretended friend came up, and, on hearing of the assault, declared he would pursue and bung the offenders back. He accordi n g l y tlooi itk lleatviee, foundotthe farmer, who, on recovering himself that he had been rubbed of his pocket.bnok, con. twining notes to the amount of Boi. together with the ring, and other articles of values On W‘dnesday, last was committed to Louth house of correction, a travelling grinder and his wife. The latter is charged with stabbing one Matthew Scanlon, a carpenter, in the body, with a carving.koite.' She was in a•st:ite of intoxicati on , and there arc no hopes of the poor matl's recovery.
