The fhenitsee, which had been at 12i in the course
of the morning, left off yesterday at I IL being a-
fall of more than 1 per cent. We believe that:skit 1.

A Messenger arrived at Deal, on Monday morn-
ing, in a post-chaise and four, from I.lndon, and
after waiting on the Admiral. was immediately put
onboard the Atrher gun-1n ig, Lieut. Pates, which
sailed direlly for Calais.
Aa American vessel from Holland, on her way
down Channel, on Monday, landed a Gentleman at
Dover. He reports, that the whole of the Dutch
fleet in the Tezel, consisting of seven sail of the
line, thee frigates, and two corvettes, had been
dismantled beiote his departure, and that a stop
had been also put to the building of ships in the
yards. The confident expettation of peace was
the cause auigned for this proceeding. We copied,
on Monday, a paragraph from a Frankfort Paper,
stating nearly to the same effba.
The first division of the transports, with the Bri-
gade of Guards, and the Std and 95th Regiments
on board, sailed on Monday from the Downs for
Portsmouth, with a fair wind at N.N.E. under
convoy of a frigate end two gun-brigs.. Should the
weather continue favourable, they will be of Ports-
mouth this day, where they will be joined by the
transports with troops, for some days waiting for a
fair wind at St. Helen's.

The Glesseev Career, received yesterday, con-
tains a letter dated Greenock, August I, from
which the following is an extra& ;—" By two
different vessels, which arrived last night, from
Dublin, we have received the following' very
unpleasant piece of intelligence, which we sin-
cerely hope may, by the ne;t communication, bo
more satisfactorily explained. The story, as we
have received it, is, that upon Friday last, a its-
moor prevailed in that city, that a discovery had
been made of an intention among the disaffeeted,
whether on the score of wages, or otherwise, is not
exaetly known, to rise in arms, in consequence of the
removal of four seginsents of the military, which
had just taken place."
We have received letters and papers from Dub-
lin, to the 2d instant, but they are silent upon the
subject mentioned in the Gteensek letter.
With regard to the affair of Tullamore, we have
every reason to conclude that the will be
found a corns&

following .

On the 22d last, four companies of Irish Militia
light infantry, the Londonderry, Monaghan, Sligo,
and county of Limerick, halted in Tullamore, on
their march to their different regiments, from Birr,
where they bad been quartered.
Early in the evening, a Militia-man was addressed
on the bridge, by a boy, who cannot be discovered,
and who, pointing to a German soldier, desired the
Militia-man to take care of those Germans, calling
them, at the same time, by an offensive appellation.
—Upon this, the Militia-man struck the German a
♦iolent blow on the head with a stick, which brought
hits& to the ground. The German being severely
hurt, complained much, and a German Officer
seized the rilitia-man, and giving him up to the
patrole, ordered him to be taken to the guard-house.
This produced some little confusion ; and, unfortu-
nately, at that moment, the Militia bugle sounded
to arms: it is not known whether the bugle sound-
ed to assemble the men at their usual hour of parade,
or in consequence of the interference of some ill-
disposed poison; but, upon hearing it, the Militia-
