Letters from Naples of the 24,h ult. state, that a
a new loan to the Neapolitan Government has been
contracted fur by the house ot' C. M. Rothschild arid
Co.uf that city. the amount of the loan, is 1,000,000
ducats dc reale, equivalent at S per cent. interest, to
a capital 6E20,000.000 ducats. At the contrac'
price. which we understand is 73 Mr one halt' of
the loan, and 75 for the remainder, the sum received
under it by the Neapolitan Government will be
something short of 2,500.0001. sterling. On of
the condi,ions of the contract is, that no money shall
be raised for three years to come. The b.mds will
be in precisely the same form as those previously in
circuiation, with dividends payable in January and
July, and, as the loan has been contracted abroad,
dependant on the rate of exchange, It is not ex-

GIORALTAR, Auo. 22.—A ship of the line and
two help, under French colours, were seen cruiz-
ing off Cape St. Mary's, both yesterday and the day
IseMre. The commandants of the troops sent
against the Rotas malcontents, reported officially on
and 13th inst. from Jubtiquc and Übriquc, that
all bad sular:tted but the leaders, and that the
two principal ones bud no mere than 16 or 20 men
kit with them, Zahlivar had marched off, and was
stated to be on the 13:h near Alger with 14 men.—
A column of about 400 militia men marched out of
Cadiz on the 14th or 15th lust. headed by the Civil
Governor of the province; it was to be joined by
two flank-companies of the tuilitia of the Isle, and
pert St. Mary's.
The True Briton, Harvey, of Liverpool, for St.
John's, New Brunswick, was abandoned ut sea on
the :25th ult. in let. 55. 0. long. 30. 0. and it was
expected she would go down ui two boars alter the
crew left her. After being out 16 drs, and having
reached let. 55. 0. N. long. 3'). 0. W. the ship was
struck down on her Lamm ends by a heavy sea in
the night of the f:24tls ult. The gale continued, :Ind
next day she sprung a leak; all hands were put ta
the two pumps, but :he water gained on them ; the
vessel now running before the wind. The water-
casks, &c. were by midnight floated in the hold,
and the ballast covered with water, which increased
to a depth of fuur feet. It was at length foond that
the vessel had started a but Cr. the starbourd-quarter,
and worked very much in the after.run. At live
next morning, she, having lost all power of her
helm, fed water-leged on her beam-ends; and with
much difficulty the long-bun was launched, and all
hands (18 in number) got into her, with isdy four
small oars, and a very small supply of provisions,
and a compass: a tremendous sea was running,
which obliged them to keep Le4d:re the wind. At
nine tut the =ming they were thrtunistely picked
up by a Lug, the Sally, of Harrington, Captain
DitehLurn, from Dublin, bound to Mirmaiehi, who
by great exertion, and much difficulty, saved them
from their perilous situation. On the 19th, this
vessel fe.l in with the fhb:, Captain Nixon, bound
for Liverpol, who took theta on Ward, and treated
theta with great humanity.

The repan-s and improvements of Northumber-

Christmas-day The workmen Lave been ol:::;4e.:
to stader pi.t the whole of the edifice. The grand
marb:e staircase is completed ; it, next to that of
Chesterfield-'uouse, will be the finest thing of the
kind in London. The upholders are expected to
complete the interior decoration by the 24th March;
and in the mouth of May &grand fete is expected to
be given.
CumberlaA-gate, the great northern entrance to
Hyde Park, is about to undergo a very great im-

Hope, whose classical taste is to well known to the

True bills were on Thursday night found against
the Bishop, Jocelyn, and the soldier, Moveriey,
Eno t only was examined, his evidence being cen,i-
dered by the Grand Jury as more than sufficient Co
criminate the purtics. All the witnesses were ordered
to be in readiness to go to I rellnd.
ECCLESIASTICAL PRuMOTIONS.—The following
promotions are spoken of in the highest circles, us
those likely .to take place in consequence of the de-
privation of the Bishop of Clogher:—The Bishop
of Down to be translated to Ciogher ; the Dun of
St. Patrick's to be the new Bishop; the Hon. and
Rev. Mr. Pomeroy to be Doan of St. Pattick's ; and
Mr. Pltin..e.'s son to have the parish of St. Anne,
in his stem!.

The hue Peter Finnerty, one evenin,4 in a casual
conversation with a gentleman at an inn in Lfrighton,
made the following rertiark, upon which we leave
our r.:,..iders to make what comment they please :--
" Lard Londonderry is a man of talent, and is com-
pttent to more 'inkiness than any M. his competitors,
but he is undubitubly insane. and a coroner's pry
wi:l confirm my opinion ; he n•:!! some clay or other
eta his own throat."

THE NEW MARRIAGE ACT—•I couple having,
luring the week, given notice to the clerk of one
of the chapels in Whitehaven, that the bans of their
marriage were to be put up, and understanding that
their names must be placed fOr three successive
Sundays on the chapel door, requested that in that
case they might he fixed behind the door, as the
act did not forbid it. This is not unlike Lord Ito-
che►ter's evasion of the Lamp Act, who, us directed
by that act, hal a lump placed before his door, but
never lit it, us the act did not specify that it was
necessary to du so.

In the appointments to take place in Ireland un-
der the Constabulary Bill, his Excellency Marquis
IVellesley is determined to select such persons only,
for magistrates, as the noblemen and gentlemen
forming the ordinary magistracy of the country can
have no objection to corps w.th, on the score of
birth, private character, and respectable station in
society. Even the chief constables, who are to be
raised under the provisions of this bill, will be cho-
sen from half-pay commissioned t.fil.:ers, in preErcnee
to any other description of persons. The applications
of all sorts, 'or appointments under this bill, already
amount to some thousands.

The new grand entrance making for his M&jesty,

" Smithfield, September 12. 1E22.
" Mr. MARTEN,—Take hede to yourself, said let those that
gets hard bred by the beasts live. %V list do le drovers do to

bit by the cattle t Skippy Williams is a good fellow, aid no-
body's enemy but his own, and though us bow be spent three
years in Newgate, Mr. itiowne gives brat a good and honest
character. That sheep lie broke tee jaw on was none of your,
atil there is not a drover in Smithfield th..t would not do the
like to an obstinate thing that would out step, kit roil away. I
saw the butcher I.:at

will prove before the lord Mayor, that the sheep got no balm,
Mind yourself, busy fellow, aud not two spy, or we will sore

Mr. Martin, we trust, has magnanimity enough
to bear patiently the consequences it his UV% II acts:
he is now undergoing the usual tate of all reformers
of abuses. if he cares for either calumnies or
Cacats, lie bad better retrace his steps itnmediately.
A few Jays ago, it being found that affairs of
c ,rsid-rable state importance will prevent his Ma-
jesty leaving town again su soon as he wished, null
the approaching equinoxes, the ships that com-
posed the royal squadron have been ordered to re-
sume their respective stations, and the Royal George
yacht to proLeed front Greenwich to l'ortsmouth, to
be laid up for the season.
Time RETUItT, AN lIISTOIIICAL FACT —When
Miss Ann Pitt, sister to the great William Pitt,
afterwards Earl of Cluttlam, received a pension
from Lori: Bate, her brother wrote her a very tingly
note, saying, " he never wished to live to see the
name of Pitt and pension together." When the
same William I'itt received a pension from the 331110
Lord Bute of 3,00 UL per annum, his sister seta him
back his tarn Idler.

Pass Tort Gumn.---T-his festival is perfectly
waive, there being no other of the kind in the king-
esel ; it may be proper, therefore, shnrtly to explain
its object and origin. The institution is of the
standing of five centuries, and is confirm,nl by char-
ters granted by Edward II! , Rieliatd I I , and
Charles 11., whereby the burgesses were anciently
enabled to 'mid eer:Mn pleas of land, within
their own precincts, and are now required to renew
their claims to the rights, privileges, and freedom,
which belong to them in virtue of their charter,
which franchises devolve every twenty years into
the hands of Mayor and Corporation, and be-
come extinct if not renewed at these periods. It
appears from the record of the borough, that there
have been ‘.!O Guilds in five hundred years : that
in the two first centuries they were held at
gular periods, but since that time, beginning with
the t:.ign of klenry VIII., they have been cele-
brated nularly without intermission, every twenty
years. In the times when Guilds were instituted,
it was lie practice to commit all great affairs, spi-
ritual and secular, to the guardianship of some
particular Saint ; in conformity with this super-
stition, Preston Guild was placed undtr the patro-
nage of S!..lolin thr 13aptist, and this King of feasts
always begins the Monday next after the decollation
of the Baptist. There was tnrmerly in the city of
York, and other ancient English cities, a Gilda Mer-
world, or Guild Merchant, held by Royal Charter,
at which it is probable that pageants, similar to
those exhibited every 20 years at Preston, were per-
linmed : but in York this ceremony gave way to
the sacred drama of Corpus Christi, performed un-
nu:* in the public streets by tit.: fraternities of
thut,eity, and of which so circumstantial and ex-
traordinary an account is to be finmd in the Ap-
pendix to Drake's Eboracum. At Preston, time has
diminished nothing of the splendour of this mwient
foaival which is enhanced in value by the rarity
of its recurrence, and of which the inclinations of
the native inhabitants, resident and nun-resident,
-dispese them to say estoperpetua.

Fistiznv.—Before the rising of the
moon on Thursday evening last, two scans, belong-
ieg to Mevagissey, shot upon some brimming fish,
and were supposed to have enclosed tuo maunds of
pi:el:aids. The next morning, to their great dis
appointment, they found the enclosure to consist of
from 40 to 50,000 mackarel. Tlw circumstance,
however, gave rise to u hope, that a large body of
pilchards were not f r oil; particu'arly as some tine
fish were taken by the driving bouts on Frit!Ay
morning. The expectations of a successful season
have been nearly destroyed. The wcather of last
week have been very unfavourable, and very few
fish have made their appearance in the inoulli of the
channel. At St. Ives alone, there uret:inety scans,
w:dch for the last six years have occasioned to their
owaers a heavy has. A letter from- Marazioa of
the 4th September says, there are about thirty scans
stloat in the Mount's Bay, which up to the time
had not caught more than 350 hogsheads, but that
dri:t boats hal been more than usually success-
ful, hauls;; Luken on an average from Is to hogs-
sleuth; each.—h'ealer's: Luminary.
We are concerned to hear that the typhus fever,
which was su fatal at the village of Eigle, near Lin-
coln, has not been eradicated, but is now equally
alarming in the adjoining village of Bassingham—
five persons in the latter place have f..;:co victims to
it, and others are suffering dreadfully.
A great robbery was committed on the Ipswich
mail, coming to town, on Thursday morning. A
retain inside the coach had the care t,t. property,
Irma four difiLrent banks, to the amount of linty
thousand pounds, and baring► been obliged to leave
the coach for one minute, the bag was stolen. One
thousand punnet; reward was offered fur the appre-
hension of the rubbers.

A widow woman named Wilson, at the advanced

DREADFUL AFFRAY AT CIIIPPENHAM.
--
At the last Kingtoh-Langley revel, which took Otte settee]
' weeks ago, some 'offence, it appears, was taken by some indi-
vidual of Langley at the comiuct of some touree men of Chip-
penbam ; since which time a desire.... rev-age 1149 been brood-
iae, and during many a Saturday night there has been slight
Skirmishes at Chippenbam between a few of the parties.
It was resolved, however, by the [Angle,' people. that the
grand attempt should be made eu Saturday evening the TO
Met. when • most barbarous and blood-Marshy coeflirt took
place. For this purpose, it is supposed, that thirty or forty
men mast have asseuthled during the evening—many, it is con-
deetured, even hired for the ocearriou ! At shout nine o'clock
a purr fellow fell dove-• in a fit near the Bear Imo ; several of
the wr. tidies here endeavoured to excite curesion, but no col-
lision took place ; they did not g'a far enough to provoke a
quarrel —it was tee, early, perhaps, for their di:Mae:al scheme.
At about half-past ten, however, they f:0111111eSC.d iii au oh-
acure part of the town, called Tuarber-street, where armed
with b!adgeoris, they spared neither man, woman, nor child !
but indiscriminat, ly Oinked all who came in their way. The
cry of Murder ! called many from their hods, who, on coming
out arid enquiring whet wag the nailer, were immediately
knocked down, beaten with sticks, arid trampled ripen. The
alarm becoming extender!, mid larger whither* arriving, the
assailants retreated to the lower part of the town. By this
true, Mr. Moore, of the Duke of Cumberland, the respectable
Ili4llConitable arrived, with a view to appease the strife, Ttnt
before he could well speak, lie was felled to the ground,
on-
mercifullybeat, and soon after caviled Wine senseless; one
I eye was nearly knocked nut, and his body dreadfully cut and
bruised. He now lies in a very dietressine state, though free
front danger. His toothier was also several time* knocked
down, but received no serious injury. Mr. Hull, saddler, was
called front his bed by the horrid cries of murder! which now
' proceeded from all parts: and without waiting to put oil his
stockings nr Iris hat, he hastened, alainst naked, to render as
Ire thought, • hallow creature assistance ; but, within au hour
nut a half, after lie went out, he wan, found near the Ivy•bouse
in a most deplorable stile, bleeding to death ! scarcely an
inch of Iris head free front cut or bruise. Ile was taken home,
and expired within a hew hours. His remains were interred in
the churchyard at Chipvenliam.
Miss Watlield, who keeps a ladies boarding-school near the
bridge, hearing a great noise, opened her bed-room window to
ascertain the cause, when a large stone was immediately thrown
at her, and she was knocked backwards. Mr. Beyaulds, a
brazier, was carried home soon after twelve, bruised from head
to foot. He was beard praying most piteously for his life.
Don't kill me ! don't knit me, Mountjoy ' he said) and I
I will give thee a guinea :" but no mercy was shown to him—he
died on Tuesday evening. Unfortunately be wan insensible
from the time he was wounded to the moment of his death, so
• that his deposition, which aright have important, could sot be
taken.

The wife of Poona, the carrier, in Tonber-street, where the
fiends commenced the easy, hearing her husband knocked
down at the door, ran out and was imitrintly felled ; and her
blow, and she alarm for her husband, who was scarcely risen
before he wan beat down again, has had *cell an effect upon
her (she being pregnant), that seasons apprehensions are eli-
te:mined for her life. Mr. 1314111.11.41.11, the o unstable, was
knocked down doling the 'dray, and received a severe contu-
sion on the brad, and • blow ma one of his ep.s. Janice Roby
was rut in a snockin;; urnmer eh out the mouth end ryes ; one
eye is closed. In short, there are one and thirty' wen, women,
and children, Inure or less wounded!

T..e magistrates have been indefatigable in their exertions to
get at the perpetrat rs of the above horrid di rs. Imineuse
numbers of witnesses have been, an .I a v.:l number more
remain to he examined. Ww. Clare, Esq. the Coroner, arrived
at Chippenhant, on Monday, about noon, and immediately
int-
paunelled a Jury limn the most respectable inhabitants ofellip
riihain, and its neighbourhood, on the body of Mr. Hull ; they
sat in the Town HO mail ten o'clock each night, anti here not
Set come to a conclusion ; each witness undergoes the closest
examination ; no patios or trouble are spared to sift the matter
to lbe bottom. The same Jury will be .worn on the body of
Mr. Reynolds.

The following persons are already in cnsto‘ly, and warrants
have been issued against several others :--llenry Knight and
John Matthews, two iespectable formers of Langley Win.
Bryant, George Thomas, John Thomas, Titomas Pearce, Charles
Elms. Ja ties Isaacs, Jame. Langley, J.ilm Langley, JllllO
Moody Wallop. Isaac Musto, Benjamin Salter, Joseph 11:tyly,
William 'fanner, William Batten, Philip Cole, John W nod
man, John Ailderell, and George Bayley, all of Langley.—
They all appeared cureless of their situations when lirst taken
into custody, butt their was a very visible alteration in their
countenances after they heard of the death of poor Reynolds.
The Governor of the New House of Correction, Devizes, is ou
the spot, rendering his assistaoce.
