L O N D O N, Sept. 25.
A Russian privateer seized a French vessel in the Mediterranean, bound to Constantinople, with several Turkish merchants, who were on board with their effects, and carried her into the Morea; in consequence of which the Pomona, a king's frigate, commanded by mons. de St. Felix, was dispatched after her, from Toulon, and overtaking the privateer, insisted on his surrendering both himself and prize. The latter was instantly given up, but without the Turks and their merchandise. While this was transacting, another frigate and a brig, belonging to his majesty, entered the road, and the captain resolved, to have the privateer by force, if he refused. Application was again made, but without effect, upon which the brig was ordered to advance to flank them, while their boats, manned with 72 men, boarded the privateer.
The Russians determined to defend themselves to the last, landed their cannon, and erected a battery on shore, which the brig, after a smart cannonade silenced. The boats then attempted to board the privateer, but the instant they came alongside, had 1200 muskets fired into them. An obstinate and bloody engagement immediately ensued, which lasted with great fury on both sides, for four hours, when the Russians were obliged to submit, and were carried with their vessel into Smyrna. The French lost in that action near 40 men, among whom is an officer of distinguished reputation, mons. de St. Cæsar.
—OCTOBER 3.—
JOSEPH the little is now convinced, that a contest with the Turks is no puerile object. He may console himself in exhibiting more military magnificence in times of peace; but when the rough sounds of the trumpet arouse to war, his glory is totally eclipsed, and the brilliancy and acuteness of his mind are lost in the vain parade and mock achievements of a puppet-show. We hear of his marches and counter-marches; but
defendant. A factor, or agent, said his lordship, in general cannot pledge goods that are sent to him absolutely to be sold; the contract between the principal and factor is, that he should sell his goods, and it would be departing from the trust reposed in him if the agent, instead of selling them, chose to lay them up, to keep the principal in suspense, or to apply them to purposes for which he had no authority from his employer. I may, continued his lordship, adopt the law as laid down by the defendant's counsel. If a party is in possession of goods, and advances money on the credit of them, for the use of the owner, he may retain the goods till he is satisfied, especially if the money is applied to the owner's use, and it this is done by his direction either expressed or implied. This is the foundation, said his lordship, on which I will this cause to be tried.
His lordship then observed, on Mr. Reilly's evidence, and on those parts of the letters that passed between the parties as far as they appeared material in the cause. The question, his lordship said, for the consideration of the jury was, whether the property which the defendants had in their hands, was at all events to have been sold, or if they could not sell it, whether they were to make such use of it as they could, in order to extricate the plaintiff. The goods were sent to London for sale, and undoubtedly sale was the first object; but if these goods could not be sold; from the terms of the plaintiff's letter, had they not an authority to dispose of that property in such a manner as would best serve the house in Ireland? When the plaintiff is informed there is no market for the goods, he says some great stroke must be struck to extricate us.
In order to enable the plaintiff to maintain this action to get possession of the goods, he must show, said his lordship, that he tendered all the money the defendants had parted with on their credit. The defendants furnished Mr. Reilly with the means to do that which Carmack desired, namely to deposit with Liveley and Co. bills to the amount of 3000l. no matter whether Liveley's bills were paid or not, the defendants were not responsible for the credit of that house, as this was done at the request of the plaintiff himself. This money has

ELECTUARY For destroying Worms in children and grown Persons. THE Proprietor informs the Public that he has received a supply of the very best ingredients with which this Electary is compounded, and as complaints were made that the last, sold by the Apo- thecary was not good, the Proprietor assures the Pub- lic it must have been owing to the principal article in the composition being too old, they now may be supplied with it as usual, at Mr. Wainwright's Store, warranted good by the Proprietor. Experience, the best criterion to go by, evinces the Electary the best preparation yet discovered for the uses expressed in its title. The ready sale it has heretofore met with, is a proof of its success, and requires little further commendation, save that it so effectually kills the worms, that they are seldom or never brought away alive, but mostly jellied or like humors occasioned by colds.

Boarding and lodging for
Mutual Assurance Company of the City of New-York, For the purpose of insuring Houses and other Buildings in the said city from loss by FIRE. THE Directors again recommend this institu- tion to the particular attention of their fel- low-citizens, and are happy to inform them that from the encouragement it has met with there is no doubt but that it will eventually answer the end proposed to wit, A certain relief for a very trifling consideration to the parties who shall sustain a loss by fire.
Those persons, and particularly widows, whose support is derived from the rents of houses, are earnestly requested to consider how precarious their situation is, and how soon they may be reduced from a comfortable income to absolute indigence; notwithstanding their utmost care. This institu- tion affords a sure asylum to them in case of dis- tress, and by availing themselves of it, they will relieve their minds from great anxiety.
Administrators and guardians of property in houses, will seriously reflect whether they do not expose themselves to heavy censure in case of ac- cidents, if they neglect to secure the property en- trusted to their care by every prudent means in their power. This office presents relief to the helpless orphans, who might otherwise be totally deprived of every means of education and sup- port. The benefits of the institution, in short, apply to every class of citizens in general, who will do well to consider that if they neglect par- taking of the until an accident happens, the bare- faced impropriety there would be in seeking relief from the bounty of their fellow citizens, when their own prudence ought to have secured it to them.
It is almost needless to add what is evident to every person, that the greater certainty of success depends upon the extensive number of the company, and those who are parties to it will for their own sakes use their influence to convince others of its utility.
The chief difficulties that inevitably attend the first stages of every undertaking, are now over- come, and every additional member is a tenfold diminution of the risk.
SKETCH of the Rates and Conditions of Insurance.
FIRST RATE. THAT for and upon insuring all houses and other buildings built of brick or stone, with party- walls carried twelve inches or upwards above the roof, and covered with tile, slate, copper, or other safe materials, the premium and deposit on every hundred pounds shall be, for seven years—pre- mium 3s. deposit 12s. total, 15s.
SECOND RATE. That for and upon insuring all houses and other buildings, built of brick or stone, covered with tile, slate, copper, or other safe materials, but without party-walls as above described, the premium and deposit on every hundred pounds shall be, for seven years—premium, 4s. deposit, 10s. total, 14s.
THIRD RATE. That for and upon insuring all houses and other buildings built of brick or stone up to the roof, but covered partly with tile, slate, copper, or other safe materials, and partly with shingles; the pre- mium and deposit on every hundred pounds shall be, for seven years—premium, 5s. deposit, 11s. total, 16s.
FOURTH RATE. That for and upon insuring all houses and other buildings, the outside walls of which are built of brick or stone up to the roof, and which are co- vered wholly with shingles; the premium and de- posit on every hundred pounds shall be, for seven years—premium, 6s. deposit, 11s. total, 17s.
FIFTH RATE. That for and upon insuring all framed houses, and other buildings, with brick or stone fronts, and the sides filled in with brick, the premium and de- posit on every hundred pounds shall be, for seven years—premium, 7s. deposit, 11s. total, 18s.
SIXTH RATE. That for and upon insuring all framed buildings filled in with brick, the premium and deposit on every hundred pounds shall be, for seven years—pre- mium, 8s. deposit, 11s. total, 19s.
SEVENTH RATE. That for and upon insuring all wooden buildings, the premium and deposit on every hundred pounds shall be, for seven years—premium, 10s. deposit, 21s. total, 31s.
The expense therefore of insuring five hundred pounds for seven years, on a building as described in the fifth rate, which comprehends the greatest proportion of houses in this city, will appear as follows:
Premium on £. 500 at 7s. per cent. £. 1 15 0 Deposit, " " at 23s. per cent. 7 0 0 Policy and badge, " " 0 10 0 £. 9 5 0
If the amount of the premiums is found sufficient to pay the losses by fire, and the incident expenses of the office, the whole of the deposit will be returned at the ex- piration of seven years, is 7 0 0 £. 2 5 0
Which shews the expense of insuring £. 500 for seven years may not, in all probability, exceed two pounds five shillings; a small cost for securing a sum for such length of time.
No sugar-house, brew-house, bake-house, still- house, cooper's or joiner's shop, or other house or shop wherein any of the hazardous trades or busi- nesses following are carried on, viz. chymists, ship chandlers, tallow chandlers, stable-keepers, ta- vern-keepers, printers, malt-dillers, oil or co- lormen; or which are used as stores for hazard- ous goods, viz. hemp, flax, tallow, pitch, tar, turpentine, spirits of turpentine, rosin, gunpow- der, gunflints, hay, straw, fodder of all kinds, and corn unthreshed, will be insured, but on such terms only as the directors shall specially agree.
Any person applying to the secretary of this office for insurance, must deposit twenty shillings for each policy, to defray expenses of survey, &c. which will be allowed in part of such insurance when made, but on default, will be forfeited to the company.
As the Mutual Assurance Company is establish- ed on principles of reciprocal advantage, without attending to the interest of any individual, it is necessary that all persons, before their insurance commences in this society, pay their premiums and deposits on receiving their policies, signed by three of the directors, and subscribing the deed of settle- ment.
Any person insured by this society becomes a member thereof, and is eligible to be chosen a di- rector.
All losses or damages by fire are to be paid or repaired within ninety days from their settlement in the office.

To the Public. AN attempt having been made by a certain person, to occasion a belief of his having my receipt for preparing the SPECIFIC SOLUTION; I do solemnly declare, that no one (except a gentleman of the medical line, in the state of Maryland, whose honor I could rely on for keeping it to himself) ever had from me the receipt; that the discovery is entirely my own, made during my residence in the island of St. Kitts, where I had under my care (as Surgeon to the estates of the Hon. John Julius, Esq. and general Matthew) upwards of 500 negroes, for more than two years; that during my practice on those estates seventy-four Venereal patients came under my care, that the Specific Remedy was the only one used, and that it never failed me. To prove which, any gentleman is heartily welcome to peruse a certificate given me by the Hon. John Julius, on my relinquishing the practice of the estates.—As a regular bred Surgeon, I never should have offered a nostrum to the public, but being a very sickly person, rendered by disease incapable of attending much to my door practice, I could not conceive it derogatory to the dignity of physical character to bring home that business which want of health would not allow my attending abroad. The public may rest assured that no person has my receipt for the preparing the Specific Remedy, and will therefore guard against its being intruded on them as such. S H E E D, Nov. 14. 2w No. 70, Cherry-street.
Specific Solution. PROVED fully (even in this city) to be the easiest and most effectual remedy ever yet discovered for the cure of the Venereal Disease, to be had only at No. 70, opposite No. 9, Cherry-street. The terms of (no cure no pay) on which this valuable medicine was first offered, afforded an opportunity, by fair trials, of proving its efficacy numbers have experienced its virtues within a very short space of time, and many could vouch for its quick effects were it admissible; but the nature of the complaint forbids the idea. The discovery is entirely new, and asserted to be free from any Mercurial preparation whatever. Persons travelling either by land or water, may have it put up for them with printed directions, on notice of half an hour. Sept. 25.

COAL TAR. A Quantity of this Tar, and of black and clear Varnish extracted from Coal, is just arrived, to be sold for ready money only, by Charles Wilkes, No. 12, Hanover-square. The sole Agent in America for the British Tar Company. THE superior excellence of this Tar in preserving the bottoms of vessels from the worms, and in keeping them clean, has been proved by repeated experiments. It has been also found to be an effectual preservative of cast and wrought iron from rust. A description of the different kinds of Coal Tar and Varnish made by the British Tar Company, and of the various uses they may be applied to with the greatest advantage, with directions for using them, may be had as above. 29th Sept. 1788.
The following Certificate of an Experiment made in New-York, is added for the information of the Public. New-York, April 26, 1788. WE the subscribers do hereby certify that on or about the 18th June last, we attended at Van Tuyl's wharf, on the East river, in this city, where we examined three pieces of timber, all of the same dimensions, one paved over with Lord Dundonald's late invented Coal Tar, the other, two pieces with a stout thick coat of common ship stuff (pitch, tar, oil, and sulphur); that we afterwards saw them all chained to and sunk along side said wharf. That nearly six months after, to wit, on the 5th of December following, we again attended at said wharf, when in our presence they were all taken up, and on examining them, the piece done over with the Coal Tar appeared clean and entirely free from worms and barnacles, the other pieces were both very foul, one of them was almost covered with barnacles; that on cutting them in several places we found the worms in full possession of the two pieces paved with the ship stuff, scarce an inch having escaped them. The piece done over with the Coal Tar was perfectly free from them, and as sound and fresh as when put down. From the above experiment we are fully of opinion that the Coal Tar will preserve the bottom of ships from barnacles and the worms, and is worthy of the greatest encouragement. Signed) John Murray, Thomas Sanders, Andrew Van Tuyl, Stephen Crosfield, John Thompson, Wm. Rhinelander.
