(rem St. Thomas's, from whence she sailed ou the of October, and hringS accounts that on the evening of the Ist of Qaober nearly half the town of St. Thomas's was reduced to ashes, through the carelessness of a Negro.- 4liout 28 Stores, and from 00 to 70 houses, were destroyed. TflE Ship ifingrica.aryiyed at Falmouth on lgon flay, from Norfolk, in America. At the time she ,sailed, a French 74, and two Frigates, belonging to Admiral VlLLgAumEz's SquadFon, were lying ;here in a yery disabled state. WE have still to. regret the total 'want of any authentic intelligence from the Continent, although vepf.-,rts are circulated every day of Viaories obtained by the Prussians over the French. A Vessel' is said to have arrived At Icirkaidy, a Port on the op posite side of the Frith of Forth, from Elsineur, the Captain of which stated, that before he sailed an ac . a unt had 'reached glsineur of a 'Battle having been fought op the Banks of the Qder between the French and Prussians, in which the latter were vi&orious. It is, however, highly improbable, that the l'rus;sians would risk a general' aEtion with the 1" , ° ` they were joined by their Allies. - - It that Prince HOHENLOHE or Gen 'G may have had an aaion with the Frebch in endeavouring to effe& their retreat to the 04er. But to counterbalance this favourable report, there are others of an opposite tendency. It is again stated that Prince HOHENLOHE has been de feated and taken Prisoner ; and it is also rumoured that theED.pEtiOa. of RUS S IA has,sent to BONAPARTE 1,9 propose a Negotiation for Peace, &c. We trust, however, that we shall soon receive authentic and official accounts from the Allied Ar mies, as Lord HUTCHINSON Will set out to-morrow on a Special Mission to His PRUSSIAN MAJESTY.— The ilstrea Frigate is at present at Yarmouth, wait ing to convey his Lordship to the Baltic. We sin cerely rejoice in the sele&ion of the Noble Lord for this important service, for which, indepen dent of his general talents, his high military skill peculiarly qualifies him. His Lordship will of course immediately repair to ' le Head-quarters of t lle Prussian Army. He will be accompanied by Pis brother, Colonel HUTCHIN,SON, by Mr. FRERE, as Secretary to the Legation, and hy•Mr. HERVEY, as Private Secretary. Go‘ernment have received' Dispatches from the Cape of Good Hope. The troops were all well at that S . Lith",.m.ent on the 12th September.

CORK, Nov 14. Tin; Ele&ion for. Members to represent this City in Parliament came on this day. The Sheriffs took their seats in the City Court Souse, at eleven o'clock, and after the arrangement of some prelimi nary forms, the Hon. Mr. C. H. HUTCHINSON was proposed by CHARLES LESLIE, Esq. with some ap propriate observations; and seconded by Sir Ria, CHARD KELLETT ; and Colonel LONGFIELD was proposed by Alder Man LANE., with similar intro. duation, and seconded. by ROIVLAND Moißtsoti, Esq. late Mayor of this City. A Mr. BOYLE then rose up, and commented very freely upon the respective claims of the Candidate s to popularity, or to the confidence of their constitu ency. , His observations were not recommendatory of the eleetion of the candidates,; and having met with some interruption from the Sheriffs, upon the nature of his remarks, which produced smart and pointed replication, it was observed, that he was not a privileged PeCtor, and therefore not competent to embark in the discussion which he had undertaken. This being admitted to be the case, by a rJerence to the registered franchise of the city, Mr. BOYLE'S zeal took. another 'direction, and he 'direolly offered himself as a Candidate to represent the City.. He was proposed and seconded by two Freemen, whose names we could not obtain, and being thereby eli gible to speak, appeared upon the hustings, and addressed the Freemen and Freeholders at large. A sho* of hands, being demanded for each Can , didate, and only a few appearing in favour of Mi.. BOYLE'S claim, the Sheriffs, after the usual procla mations for objealion and competition, declared the Hon. Mr. C. H. HUTCHINSON and Colonel LONG FIELD. duly ele&ed to represent this City in Parlici . ment. • EXTRACT OF A LETTER FROM THE COUNTY OF WICKLOW, NOV. 12. Last Tuesday night as poor Charles Kavanagh, of Killynure, a most honest and industrious man, was-"returning from Dublin, where he had been selling bacon, he was way-laid on the road leac:ing from Bahinglass to Rathvelly, by three villains, who robbed him of a large sum of money, and beat and kicked .him so inhumanly about the head and neck, that he lingered until yesterday, when he died; the Coroner's Inquest is to be holden on him to-mor row=and tho Ugh he said enough to attach suspicion, yet he did not speak sufficiently clear to authorise the apprehension of any person. . Last night's Gazette contains a notice to the Cap tors, of Martinico, St. Lucia, and Guaaoupe, iu the year 170., that a tburth and final distribution will commence to be made to the Land Forces on the Bth of December. The sum to be dividqd for the Army is -9061. 15s. sd. leaving 'a pioportibn for the Navy of 7011. 4s. lid. The share of the Com mander in Chief amounts to e 591. 124 ; that of the Private to 60, f-34d; MIDDLESEX ELECTION. a - Tnondat the scene has been considerably enliven.- ' eel within these two days, by the intrcduction of Sir i F. Buitomer's colours, and though the shouts of ißurdett for ever," from the ladies and children on ; the road, begin once more to salute the ear, nothing _like the bustle or noise generally attendant on a po -1 Inger Election has hitherto manifested itself. One exhibition yesterday, however, attva&ed, both on the road and at the hustings, a considerable degree of interest. It was the appearance of an elderly Gentleman, placed in a chair ornamented with laurel, and with. the insignia, of Sir F. Burdett, drawn along by eight men, and surrounded by about fifty others. Ou,his arrival at the hustings, the old Gentleman alighted from his seat, and gave a Plumper in favour of Sir F. BURDETT, informipg Sir F. at tliesame ' ' time that he had. been drawn the whole way frpm Strathgate to the hustings, by eight of his neigh boqrs, lbr the purpose of giving him a Plumper. Mr ' ;Wettest asked the alt Gentleman if he did f pot recolle& him ? but the other, putting his pipe in his mouth, marched off without condescending an answer, remounted his chair, and was carried in triumph round the hustings by his friends. At the close of the Poll'at three o'clock the natal hers were— _ Far Ntr. MELL isa - _., , - 2401 Mr. BYNG - - .. - - Int . Sir F. BURDETT . - ,_!. 496 Mr. BYNG made his bow amidst the hissing!; and hootings of the populace. Sir FRANCIS BURDETT.-"-" GrentleTllCl), I cannot but consider the poll of to-day as rather encouraging to my, hopes and . the independent interest of this county. Gentlemen, I shall beg leave, before I do-" part, 'to make one or two observations to you, whitak will, It hink, be well .wort h a y the .consideration 6 the Freeholders of Middlesex, before the poll closes, or their consideration may perhaps come too late. Gentlemen, I 'do not at all regret, though it cer tainly render's me liable to, some sort of disad vantages, the plain and open, way in which I have thought fit to state to you the grounds on which I offer myself to your notice; the principles on which a .l intend to a&, and therefore the expectations you would be entitled to form of my condea if I should again meet with your support. Gentlemen, it is well worth the consideration of the Freeholders of Middle, sex to ex mine the sentiments which have been ex. pressed by the Candidates of other places engaged in a popular Election, because they will see how different a tone - is taken by those persons as sepia as they have ceased to be Candidates, and have obe tained the situation they sought for. I only need to mention one instance in the Borough of Southe wark. I would dire& your attention to lhe senti- ; ments of Mr. Thornton towards the Ele&ors of the -Borough immediately after he had secured his seat. You wtll then find, that he takes the first epportue nay of telling the Eleaors of the great, the mono strous sacrifices they are to make ; sacrifices which he never found out, or even hinted at, previous to the day of his ele&ion. In another great county, X mean the county of York, you find that Mr. WO,- -berforce adopts the same trick ; and as soon as his seat is aecured, the first thing he talks of is the error- mous sacrifices the people -are called pas to ; make. This is indeed glorious language, and to be eape&ed from the quarter whence it conies ; but I think it would have been as well if the Gentlemen I have alluded to had thrown out their , sentiments ou, this subjea for the consideration of the EleCtors previeus to their obtaining their return, iNtasia,_ Gentlemen, as to sacrifices—Are all the sacrifices, lhet have hitherto been made to count to, nothing ?. Have we not been making sacrifice upon sacrifice ? And would it not have been important to have. i shewn,what was likely ,to have been the result et:- , ihose , we *have 'made, and to have held out some hope for the future, iome benefit to be derived frorra those uaheard-of sacrifices which they say the people are still to be called upon to make ? Gent . tlemen, itseems that these men are engaged in supe porting that system which . has for - its übjea to die vide theecountry into two separate and disti& parties, forming one portion into paupers, and, another into .tax-gatherers. It would seem as if 'a systeth had been planned for the erection. of poor-hoeses for the industrious, and palaces for tax-gatherers ; and as if a sa stern of that kind had not already caused 'sufficient. sacrifices.--.. 'There is another Right Hon. Gentleman. wham X have freainently had occasion to allude to—l meata the Right Hon. Manager and Treasurer.---He talks, and pleasantly too, of the sacrifices the people are to make;—that Geptlerpan, who has sacrificed nothing that I know of- but the consistency of his public charaaer, and who, 'While you are making sacrifices, is putting thousands a year into his pockets;—hg, r say; may speak with great composure of the sa crifices other men make for his emolument. Bet that Gentlernan (Mr. Sheridan) is as unfortunate in this as I in his other attempts to acquire popular applause, by arts which riot any man but himself would descend to. It never happens that he is &eat° a'ivanca.any ! claim to the support of the Elettors of Westminster, without putting forth his own charades to the diaad e vantage of that of his friends. It was but lately lie I .put forth hs claim to public favour as being the I only person who on a great and constitutional (sues.: : , L Lion gav e mehis support. If that is the case, what . has become of the claims of the rest of the Patriots with whom he aaed ? What ! 'are his claims only . founded on their demerits ? Gentlemen, on a re cent occasion we saw him stating that the Magi stracy of this County had been solicited by numbers to prostitute their authority in order to revenge some condua of . a Publican during the BleCtion for West ininster.—ls it.not too much that he should pique himself on a generosity of concha& which is found ed on the culpable neglect of - others? tfrat be should presume to say 'that it is ()wino' to his inter ference that the Magistracy have not resorted to the means of punishing a violation of the pubfic peace? —ls it for him, a Placeman, standing forward anal exerting himself at an .Election, to claim ap plause and approbation upon this ground ?—lt is very unfortunate that the merits and virtues ofMr. Sheridan cannot be exhibited to the public except to 'the disadvantage of his friends. His representations of hiMself and his 'virtues—his anions disproving them—can only be compared to base gilt twopenny pieces by the side of the sterling one. I could hope on many accounts,' that, at a time like this, the Gentleman near me would be kind enough to fa- No1;11- you with some opinions of his on Public men and public transactions. If he does net do act, You' , ,
