Bow-STREET.—On Thursday a brown paper
parcel, :containing half Bank notes to the amount of,
about 8001. Bills of ExAtange, arid Country. Bank
notes payable in London, was sent from the Chi-
chester Bank by the new Chichester Mail, diretted
to Messrs. Fry and Co. Bankers, their Agents, in
St. Mildred7scourt, Poultry ; they had received a
letter tiom-the Bank at Chichester, advising them
that a parcel, answering the acove description, would,
be sent, Ind that they might exped to receive it on
Friday. A parcel arrived on Friday
,morning, which,
upon examination, proved only to resem:)le the on-.
ginal one in tbo outside, tor instead of he inside being
of the value
:expected, it contained only an old
ragged towel. 'Messrs. Fry and Co. astonished at
their. dtsappponitturnt, sent immediately to the
White'Horse Inn, Fetter-lane, where the mail had
urived, and gave intormation of the fraud, but no
other explanation could be obtained there, than that
the parcel delivered at their house was the sante
as that brought by the Chichester Mail.
Information being given at the, Public Orfice,
' Bow-street, Pearkes, me Officer was dispatcb.:d at
night by the mail, to make inquiries en the mai' and

SECOND EDITION.

THE following interesting official intelligence horn
the Spanish Papers did not arrive time enough lot
our first impressio : •
The Major-General Don BERUTO S. JETAX, 1)9°14
in the puerto of Somisierrc, sends advices,:in a leller
.
of the 48th of this month, that at break of day that,.
morning, the division of, troops under his command
were alarmed, and immediately under arms, ex. 7. •
peeling to be attacked in force by the enemy, 14
all the advices received during the night concurred
in seating that in the morning Of the preceding dal'
great-numbers of the enemy's troops bad' dated
by Aaranda, to Duero-, direeti•ng their march to
the encampments of Bouquillas and la Granja, with
many pieces of artillery, and that dtiring the whole
day they were conveying artillery, and other military
stores.

Accordingly, a little after six in the morning'.
were heard in the heights of Sotnesierra, various dis"
charges of artillery and small arms, COntinuallY in"
creasing, and all in the direction of the pass of Se-
pulveda, left' no doubt chat an atadcic
would be made ; he certainly could confide in the
resistance of the_ brave garrison, which had been
reinforced tho day before (ihe s.,'"itli) with 1000.
slicers of the regiment of Jaen.

The number of the enemy could not' but c"ite,
solicitude, am! from the moment of the attack, he:
took proper measures to send succours of infantrYi
artillery, and ammunition; but without the assistance
of winch they effected the complete defence of, this
point;

Brigadier Don -JUAN JOSEPH SARDEN,
lonel of the regiment of cavalry of

who commanded at the post •of Sepulveda, Writes
that he was attacked at break of day, by tl
Enemy, with from 3500. to 4000 infantry, 1500
caValry,' and four pieces of artillery, and that he 11.34
repulsed them.W•ith glory to the arms of the King

A NATIO:kg SONG.

JUNOT's DEFEAT.

Tune—" TIGHT LITTLZ ISLAND."
When the Army of France
Saw the British advance,
In defence of the rortupleSe right, Sir,
Said General junOt-- / •
" I'll soon let yin' knovv

" What it is against Frenchmen to fight, Sit,
" For as soon as your troops are in motion
" I'll hasten to give them a potion,
" And soon shall they be
" Driven into the Sea,
" And every one drown'd in the Ocean."

This proud Gasconade
Was quickly c:urtvey'd,
By a Zephyr, to Neptune's domain, Sir,
Who This unot,
" Who tO Ir teleciorn's a toe,

Soon shall see that his efforts are vain, Sir;
" Old England's the land 1 adore most,
"Her troops rank for courage betore most,
" And to rescue a State
" From Italy's fate
You ever will find them the foremost."

Sir Arthur next spoke,
" Sure the FrenChman must joke,
" When he cruelly threatens to drown ds t

" If to Neptune we go,
" As 'tis said by I unot,
" With success he will certain crown t;
sk. For there we shall VicA'ry conunand, Sir,
" IGainst our Tars, I. renchrnen ne'er made a stand, Sir,

•' And since 'tis nothing new
" French Fleets to subdue,
•' I'm determined to thrash them by land, Sir."

The Battle began,
The Frenchmen soon ran,

Seturity seeking in flight, Sir,
And the IGLU o'erthrow
Of General junot,..

Evined that Sit Arthur was right, Sir ;
He swore line o►ily coulu m. et 'ems
He'd do all he could to deteat 'ern,
'T was a glorious thing,
That with only one wing
Of his Army, he mauled to beat

Each Englishman's heart,
Takes a gen'rous part,

With i'ortugal's Patriots, aid Spain, Sit,
And the Tyiant will know,
From the fall of I unot,

That there'll soon be an end to hisTeigri, Sir
With scorn and contempt he'll be treated,
For his hopes, like,his troops, are defeated;
Let Britons prove true,
And the contest pursue,
And his downtall will soon be completed.

Qn Saturday evening last; about nine o'clock,
►Bost melancholy accident happened in the river
Tyne. As the term-boat between the Howden
Pans and Jarrow was crossing to the latter place with
a number of persons on board (some accounts say
twelve, others fifteen), the Wind strong from the
East, and consequently a great swell in the river,
it unfortunately filled with water; and sunk, when
about twenty yards from the shore, by which the
whole company would have met a watery grave, bad
it not been for the exertions of the Captain and crew
of a sloop near the place, who instantly got out their
boat; and saved the greater part of them. We un-
derstand there were only three drowned, viz, a• pit-
man named WATsoN, belonging to Hebburn Col-
liery; a carpenter named Mills, of Howden Pans;
and a person named Armstrong, of Hebburn Quay.
The bodies of the two latter were found on Sunday.
The greatest attention was paid to the survivors by
some persons at Jarrow, one of whom was brought
to life after being near a quarter of an hour under
water.

On Monday se'nnight a Gentleman of this town,
for a considerable wager, ran fifty yards, carrying a
man upon his back who weighed 17st. 21b. against
another, who, without any weight, was to run
100 yards. The former beat by about eight
. A person present," thinking 'himself Swifter
t.hin 'le who -Fast, proposed to run the sfli,ne digtaucc,
which. was immediately accepted, and won by- the
same Gentleman, carrying the_abovo'weight, by two
yards.

guards and the chasseUrs of the regiment of Krono-
berg pushed on as far-as the Chapel of Lokalax,
and formed there the advanced post. Intelligence
was soon after received that the enemy assembled in
--considerable strength in the vicinity of Helsing, and
that his ordnance amounted to about 16 pieces of
cannon. At six. o'clock our advanced posts were
attuked near Lokalax .; they consisted of 300 chas-
, leursl Commanded by Captain Baron LAGE4BIELKE,
of,yonr Majesty's Life Guards, and Capt. Runsux,
of the regiment of Kronoberg. The enemy was from
300 to 4uo men strong, and had two pieces of can-
non ,and one' howitzer.

The aelion lasted until eight o'clock, when the
fall of 'night put an end to it ; the advanced posts
retaining their position. The 'battalion of guards,
and the regiment of Kronoberg, 'with the squadrons
of horse, received orders to advance to Lokalax.
The pioneers of the battalion of Warning were or-
dered to repair the road between the point of disem-
barkation and Lokalax, which was in a very bad
condition ; it was, however, so speedily put into a
tolerable state, that early in the morning of the thth
four six pounders arrived in Lokalax, and strong de-
tachments were ordered to take post on the road to
Abo, Nystad, and Helsing ; the whdle, while the
enemy were heard working at their batteries, and at
six o'clock in the morning, our advanced posts were
attacked; the enemy about 4000 in number, with 10
pieces of cannon and 2 howitzers, advanced to turn
our right flank, and b 3 means of his numerous artil-
lery, favoured by the nature of the ground, succeeded
in breaking my line, but he was nevertheless repulsed
by the superior gallantry of the troops under my
command.

BATH, OCT. 13.

Our Theatre opened on Saturday with the Tra-
gedy of The Revenge; and to give additiOnal eclat
to the first performances, the Managers have •en-
gaged, for a few nights, Mr. irourip, late of Old
Hayttlar):s, The chara&er of Zanga, which he
made .choiCe. 61, is well suited for a display, of
theatrie taleritilbf the first order ; and he sustain
ed it throughout-in a manner which deservedly call-
ed forth the warmest plaudits, and proved that his
reputation had not been over-rated. The Bath
public have already had an opportunity of becom;
ing acquainted with the excellencies of his Hamlet,
in which he is next to appear, and we doubt net
that it will attract
.a crowded audience.--L-Th 6
Theatre has undergone some interior 'alteration;
and the resident theatric corps were severally greet
ed on their appearances ; they acquitted themselves
with their accustomed degree of merit.—ilis- Royal
Highness. the Duke of GLOUCESTER honoured the
Theatre with his presence, and seemed highly grafi.,
fied with their performances. • . -

At the late Carnarvon Assizes; Mr. Chief Justice
LEYCESTER, ill his charge to the Grand Jury, took
occasion to congratulate them upon the state of the'
gaols in that. and.the two adjacent counties (Merle-
neth and Anglesey); there not being a single pri-
soner for trial in either of them; a circumstance, he
would venture to say, that could not be found upon
any circuit in the United Kingdom ;, and which was
the more extraordinary and' gratifying, when he
considered theigreat improvements going on in the
counim.
•-‘fillicit necessarily brought a great number
of strangers into is ; and hescould only account, as
he had done on former occasions, for Such rare inr
stances of good order, in the vigilant exertions and
example of the Magistracy and Gentlemen of the
respective counties. The company who honoured
the High Sheriff, R. T. CARREG, Esq. with their
presence, at these Assizes, were more numerous
and spleridid than was ever witnessed at that place.
At the. Sheriff's dinner were 7--.

The Small Pox has lately proved very fatal in the
parish of Bermondsey, upwards of thirty children
having died of it. •
• The. announcement of the Scheme for the State

SMITHFIELD MARKET, Ocr• 14.

This day's market had a pretty good supply- of
different 'kinds of Cattle ; Beef acid Veal are cheaper
than our last report ; Pork if dearer; Mutton .sup-

inconsiderable ; Clnv-er has fallen in price since

ST. GEORGE SKEFFINGTON, ESQ.

SPOKEN BY MR.. PUTNAM.
With anxious mind, with agitated breast,
Icy ev'ry terror forcibly impress'd,
Our bard to=night, exalted in his views,
Resigns the comic for the serious muse;
Beneath her banner variously displays
Passion's mere spark extended to:a blaze;
While moral ardour kindles into birth
The firm in honour,- and the pure in worth !
Here Virtue hails, contending claims above,
The tear of Pity on the cheek of Love!

Our Bard 110 longer treads on Fairy-land,
Where Fancy, like a despot, holds command;
No longer now endeavours to excite
Ideal grief, and fabulous delight;
Still less attetnpts, With vigour, to transmit
Wit strong as genius enius bl ight as wit
VVl,iie lea , g ;

offers, unadorned by art,
One touch of Nature on a gen'rous heart*.
Though pageantry, though magic he tbr6ake,
Though " 's7"Ping Beauties" here no longer wake,
Yet shall it still decidedly appear,
That loves when noble, never slumbers here.

Hearts like your own with clemency can feel
To hearts so gifted now we make appeal ;
Each party thch shall equal pleasure share,
Be that solicits mercy, You that spare.

is Said, that when the necessary prepanitions
for. o penning the King's Theatre for the Italian 014cta
take place, the Covent-Garden Company are to be'
divided into comic and tragic squadrons ; that the
first.are to open a campaign at the Lyceum,-and the
other to carry on their operations at the little The-
atre in the Haymarket.' It has been suggested, that
as the Covent-Garden Managers act under the au
thority of two Patents, the Royalty Theatre, from
its magnitude, and the vast increase of that part of
the town in which it is situated, would occasion-
ally be very convenient for occupying the whole
of the company.

SWEDISI4 TRFATY.

Mr. G. PONSONBY wished to put a question
to Oe. Right Hon. Secretary of State, whom he saw
in ills place, ow: the subject -of our relations with
SWeden. In tik., Speech of .the Commissioners at:
the opening of ine Session, these relations had been
expres4y adverted to; and three weeks hail already
elapsed since he hi4l asked a question op the subjeCt,
and was informed, that in the course of a few days
a communication was to be rnade to the House
upon it. The object of his present question was, to
learn when any communication was likely..to be
.made to the House on that subje&.
Mr. Secretary CANNING replied, that no unne-
cessary delay would take place in making the com-
munication alluded to by the Right , Honourable
Gentleinaii.' The Treaty with Sweden, which had
been' ratified by his Swedish Majesty, had been re-
ceived on Saturday last, and would be ratified by his
Majesty to-morrow. In that case he had no doubt
that he should have it in command from his Nia,
jesty to communicate the Treaty to the Ilousoon,
the following day. . •
The consideration of the Peruvian Bark Bill was
put off till to-morrow .(this day);

lie was a labourer in the Doctor's g,itjen, at Lambeth, at ele-
ven shillings per week,. and afterwards employed to make up
his Pills, the ingredients of which- were weighed out and de-
livered to him in mass for that purpose; .and that he never
did assist in any part of the process of the Fever Powder, to
which the Analeptic Pills owe their peLtiliar efficacy. It
will be evident, theretnie, that Mr. Perrin's are not Dr.
lames's Pills ; and the Publ.c will determine what degree of
credit is to be given to one who has a,serred, that he eras the
