to WEDNESDAY, December 12, 1781.
Fhe Grand Duke and Duchess of Russia, after their visit
shall be compleated at Vienna, are to take the direct route
through Bavaria and Suabia, into France; and after the ne
cessary stay at Paris, they are to pass through Flanders on their
way to England, London being, botL in arts and arms, the
top of every European Traveller's climax. The United Pro
vinces and the Court of Berlin are to be taken, on the return
of these illustrious personages to their own country.
Extract of a letter from Dublin, September 14.
“ As soon as the account of the combined fleet being in the
Channel, and of their design to fend a strong detachment with
a large body of troops towards the harbour of Cork was recei
ved here, every poflible precaution to prevent improper alarm,
and every exertion to put the coasts into a slate of defence,
were instantly taken by Government. Nothing can exceed
the celerity with which the intelligence and confeqdential or
ders were communicated to every part of the kingdom, nor
the alacrity with which they were obeyed: So that if the ene
my had made the menaced attack, they would Without doubt
have met with the most formidable refiftan^e.
" Our apprehensions, on account of the approach of the
Equinox, now begin to subside; but the vigilance of Govern
ment is by no means relaxed. I cannot myfelf help consider
ing these alarms as a most fortunate circumstance, fihce ther
have proved the means of demonstrating the univeffal loyalty
of the kingdom, and especially of the Volunteer Associations
Immediately on the firft report of an intended invasion, a ge
neral Spirit diffufed itfelf of conflicting what means could belt
contribute to the defence of the kingdom. Those corps whicli
con Sifted of tire inhabitants of Cork, and of the counties along
the South coast, made immediate offers of afiiftance to the
Commander in Chief. Those who were at a distance, trans
mitted their tender of Services to Government. Addresses and
resolutions, filled with every exprcflionur the phreft loyalty
to their Sovereign, and attachment to Government, were trans
mitted to the Castle from all parts of the kingdom, dating
their readiness to undertake any Service that Should be thought
expedient by Government to watch over the peace of tl^ir
counties—to perform duty in garrison—or to march at a mo
ment’s warning to ahy part of the kingdom. These offers, fj
clearly demonftraiive of the loyalty of their principles and the
patrk.tifm of their spirit, were received by the Lord Lieute
nant with every mark of the most cordial fatisfadion and un
bounded confidence ; and his Excellency had no hesitation in
declaring, that if the events of war or further intelligence
Should make it necessary to have recourse to them, he Should
think it his duty to make use of their assistance.
I cannot tell what ideas may be formed in England upon
this condud, where the circumstances of Irish politicks are al
most entirely unknown. My reflection is, that if there nas
been any supposed jealousy or distrust between Government
and the volunteers, it is now totally vanished—that a meafurd
more politick, more popular, or more neceSfary, was never
adopted—that its effects have been already of the mos c benefi
cial nature, and will produce reciprocal confidence and cordi
ality between the people and administration, which cannot
fail of producing the most deferable conferences."
September 26. A gentleman arrived from Winchester on
Monday fays, that the number of prisoners of war confined
there is upwards of eighteen hundred; and that the Dutch
inlift daily into our service; for the Mynheers do not at all like
the company of eitlwr the French or Spaniards.
Monday an express arrived in Arlington-street, from Ask-
Hall, in Yorkshire, with ay account of the death of the Ric ht
Hon. Sir Lawrence Dundas, Bart, on Friday last, member for
Edinburgh.
The Dutch settlement of Hughlcv, in the East-Indies, which
is said to be captured by the East-India Company’s forces, lies
about 50 miles to the north of Calcutta, on the river Ganges.
It is a place of prodigious trade for all the most valuable pro
duce of India commodities. The Dutch factory there has
been said to be one of the best fortified of any in that part of
India, and its merchants by tar richer than even those of Ba
tavia. Ihe valuable mines, whence the large diamonds are
brought, are about 30 miles from Hughlev. The English
East-India Company have a settlement also at 'Hughley, which
is subordinate to the Governour of Bengal.
September 27. Short as the last cruise was of the combined
fleets, their crews have certainly been very far from healthy;
the cause is generally imputed to the want of Irish provisions
A private letter from Madrid, dated theist inst. fays, “ A
person of the name of John Clark, styling himfelf Colonel
, a S ent . fr ° m the United States of America, &c. has
abfeonded with about 40,000. dollars, which he has raifedl
among our credulous merchants, and with which it is suppo
sed he is gone to Liibon in a French ihip from Cadiz.
A few da ys iince died in Scotland, the Earl of Panmure.
? ' e t tem ber 18. However hurtful this war may prove
to the British empire in general, and to this kingdom in parti
yet f ° r the present, one port in Ireland has within these
last tour years increased in its commerce to a degree almost
unexampled in modern times. The port we are speaking of
18 C ° rl S whe / e we find that in the 19 ^rs ending in

HA GU E, (Holland/ September 16.
IT is not known yet what effect the King of Prussia's acces
sion to the Armed Neutrality will produce. It mighty
indeed, have produced something important to this Co
lossus, of which so great hopes have been conceived, if this
new acceding Power had as much weight by sea as land. This
incident, however, will, doubtless, alter nothing with regard
to the Belligerent Powers; accordingly their High Mightinef-.
fes, in their answer of the 30th of August to the notification of
tliis accession by the Baron de Thufemeyer, Envoy Extraor
dinary from this Pruflian Majesty, confined themfclves to the
usual compliments on these occasions.
London, September ay. The proWefs and loyalty displayed
so universally by the Irish on the late alarm on their coasts
ffom the combined fleets, have effectually quieted and conci
liated the dispositions of Government towards the volunteer
associations. With such an army of Free Subjects, what coun
try can have any thing to dread, on any fide, either from with
in or without?
