On the evening of the 9th, in lat. 40.10ng. 22 W. saw a privateer of 10 guns, supposed to be an American, who sheered off. On thB - morning of the 10th, a suspicious sail bore down from the vest ward, in lat. 49. 10 about seventy miles off Scilly, which proved to the Rattlesnake American privateer, Capt. MoFFET, with a crew of 1 60 men, mounting 16 guns and 6 wall pieces. An action commenced at 9 A.M. which ended with the Mary's .hauling down her colours at half past Matter hav it; her captain and 2 seamen killed, and 3 severely wig tided ; the loss of the enemy could not be well . ..7ertained, but she had some Killed and wounded, tintl.rtras 'ninch . da,m4ggcl,;p Ler standing and runnini rigging.

The . town Of rOrtpatrick was. pnt . into a con sideralle degree of alarm on Tnesday l , the 14th current. A ship; ,in mould and rig, reserphling , the Trne-blooded Yankee; hovered .all day.close off the harbour, with every appearance of: an 10 7 tendon to c.lestroy the town ,and shipping. .So • great was the alarm, that the packet agent, by the advice of Dr. APKENzit, one of the, owners, would not permit a, vessel to sail with the Lieut. Rtniettroati; commanding, the Dumfries . shire Militia in the barracks, ordered them un der arms. The ‘ Sailors, boatmen, robbetVmen, and townsmen, armed themselves with marlin spikes, boat-hooks, spades, pitch...forks, fowling pieces, and every other weapon they could pro cure, tletermined to oppose the landing of the Americans. At night the alarm did not subside. Licut, RUTHERFORD directed three of his men to take post on the quay*, while he himself remained all night under arms, with the rest of..bis detach ment. Much praise is dile to this willatit veer; for the zeal and activity he displayed upon the oe,- casiun, Hi also to the Collector of Customs; dispatched all 'eiptess to Greenock fOr a ship or war, and headed his townsmen. In the inornink it was learned that the strange ship was not the True-blooded Yankee, ^but an armed, merchant man, belonging to the Clyde, and that, owing to ad‘erse winds, she had come to anchor in Lochryan. MILITARY. MILITIA VOLUNTEER! No.-The Cambridge Mi litia, quartered at Land, in Ireland, have given 400 volunteers to the Line. The English Militia Regiments in Dublin had last week given to the Line as follows : Glacester, to the Waggon Train, Guards, 54th, and 55th, 242 Sorn rset, to the Goards, 3d, and 9th, - - 2?1 Lancashire,. to the Guards, and 15th ileginient - - ttr The above volunteers, with 220 from the Berks, quartered at Galway, have embarked at the Pi geon-house, for Liverpool. The 2d West York Regiment of Militia, quar tered at Hastar Barracks, has evinced its usual spirit for the service of the country. On all for mer occasions, this regiment has furnished its quota to the Line ; and, in compliance to the pre sent system, upwards of four hundred men (with a proportion of officers, Major YAIMURGIL• two Captains, five Lieutenants, and three Ensigns) non-cornthisSiOned officers and drmnnters, for the regular army and extended militia service. At a - meeting held on the 24th ult. of the offi cers of the sixth regiment of North York Local Militia, commanded by Lieut. Col. LEATHAM ; it was. resolved unanimously, and with au earnest spirit of loyalty and patriotism, to offer their ser vice agreeable to the act, to enable his Majesty to accept the services of the Local Militia out of their counties. The Clare Militia, commanded by the lion. Col. tip:R:TON, have unanimously, officers and pri vates,. +red to serve as a Regiment in any part of Eur Opt : they have lately returned froM Eng land, anti' are at present quartered at Carlow ) , Athy, Mariborough, Baitinglass, &c.

The West tssex Militia, quattered in Athlone, have turned out 200 volunteets to different regi ments. The Agbrigg Local Militia, commanded by Sir G. ARMYTAGE, Bart. have (both officers and men) offered to do duty in any part of the country. That fine corps, the Walworth lnfautry, (in Dublin), commanded by BARRE BERESPORD, Esq. has, in the most spirited manner, volunteered its servicestoany part of the kingdom. The 78th Regiment, at Aberdeen, is under or ders to embark immediately for foreign service. We hear the volunteering goes on briskly in the Berwickshire Militia now quartered at Tyne mouth barracks. Captain Lon, of the grenadier company, with a patriotic spirit, has generously made his men an offer of a handsome addition to their bounty, to induce them to extend their ser vices with him. Satinday a Coroner's Inquest was hdd at the Two Brewers public-house, Clapham, on view of the body of an unknown man, found drowned the preceding day in a stnall pond of water, on the road side leading from London : there was scarce ly su ffi cient water to cover the body, which had the appearance of having lain there a considerable time. There were no marks of violence about it; he had twenty-five shillings in silver, and a silver watch in his pockets, but no papers, or other thing that could lead to a discovery of who be was. Vmlict—found drowned. An inquisition was held on Friday at the Lon don Hospital, before the Coroner for Middlesex, 0.1 the hotly of Ann Simpson, who met her death by blows. inflicted with a pewter pot, by a soldier quartered in the Tower, with whom she lived.

Th was digging., and stroTk the. j axe he was working with into an earthen pot which afterwards afterwards proved to be a Bourn') , urn), and out tumbled a vast quar,tity of pieces, of silver coin, about the size of a silver threepence.— The finder immediately threw himself on 161 knees, and returned God thanks for !is good for tune. Searching farther he discovered another . pot filled with gold. The man, overjoyed, ran with all possible speed' to the town, to acqUaint his friends with his good luck. After a mature reflection, he made up his mind to assign to, the owner of the estate the whole of his acquisitions. The estate belonged to one of the Canons belong- ing to Worcester Cathedral. On making the teii der to that Gentleman, he, with noble disinteres6- edness, refused to accept of the money, taking only a few pieces to be kept as memorials. rte coins wereall Roman ones, and the while of great antiquity, the great proportion being. coined 14 the third century, that is, 1500 years ago. The man has realised 9001. by the sale. Marshal SOWLT, having endeavoured to vain to stop Lord WELLINGT9N's progress by fire anct sword, is now, it seems, trying to throw cold water on it.
