SHIPWRECK OF THE ANSON FRIGATE.

TO THE EDITOR OF THE SUN.

SIR,

In your Paper of the 12th instant,' youlaveglven
place to a Letter from Lieutenant Gua,, late.of the
Anson Frigate, in which my charaaer, and that of
the Royal Cornwall Qnzette, are most violently at-
tacked, I have too high opinion of your sense
of justice, to suppose you will lia,itate a moment to
give equal publicity to the few observations which I
deem necessary to my defence.

Had Lieutenant GILL seen my Paper of the gth
instant, a copy of which was sent to the address he
left with rue (at CALM'S Hotel, Fore-street, Dock),
it 'were IMPOSSIBLE that he could have penned the
Letter you have published, You, Sir, and TUB
Pbatac, have seen that Paper; and to you and the
Public I appeal, whether, in the corrected statement
I have there given of the shipwreck of the dnson,
I have not done all that a LOVE OF TRUTH and a
SENSE or DUTY could hove diaated to you or any
other Journalist under similar circumstances.

I forbear to say more at present. Lieutenant 1 ,
GILL appears to be a reader of your Paper. When
he sees this Letter, perhaps he will recolle& the
promise I made him when he left me his address,
that I would write hire at Dock. Accordingly, a
Letter from me accompanied the Paper I sent him.
When he has peznsed these, he will no doubt write
to you or me : and in the mean time, I most un-,
afre6tedly assure him, that I am not so ignorant of
the virtues or the fObles of a thorough-bred sea_
man, as to quarrel with him about a few uncounly
Phrasest

I am, Sir,
your filitliful hurrNe Servant,

DR.NORRn's DROPS.

THESE DROPS are particularly adapted to this
Season of the Year. They are an efficacious corro-
borative in sea-bathing, and assist the good qualities" of the
various Medical Waters ; they are, indeed, as those who are
sat the habit of taking them can testify, a powerful restor-
ative and preserver of health. In Fevers of all sorts fespe-
cially the Yellow or Putrid) they are an infallible Remedy ;
Colds, Asthmas, beginning Consumptions, Complaints of
the Stomach and Bowels, &c. are under their immediate in::
fluence, as the experience of more than half a century has
indubitably proved.
As no Bottle, even for exportation' can bt sold without a
Stamp, the possibility of imposing a Counterfeit on the Pur-
chaser is prevented, the genuine having the name of Thomas
Norris Moore engraved thereon by favour of Government.
The Family Bottle,. 225. to be had only at the Oodol's
House, No. 29, Lower Brook-street, where orders for ex-
portation are duly executed. Smaller Bottles at Hs'. and

MIDDLESEX SESSIONS.

Yesterd.:y the Sessions commenced at Hicks's
before Wei. MAINWARING,ESq. and a few
other of.the,Magistrates fOr the county.
TAciElp,s..!illaikin was indicted for an assault upon
Elizabeth his wife. It appeared that the woman
kept a public-house in Whitechapel-road. Several
squabbles arose between them. The woman, after..
that hOuse was disposed of, made interest with
brewer, and obtained possession of a second house.
The unhappy jarring was renewed,.and at length
this house was shut up. Mutual charges of crimi-
nation and recrimination took place. The Defend-
ant met his wife in Bishopsgate-street ; laid hold of
ap4 cirjiggpd het rather violently. The Jury found the
Defendant Guilty, and he was ordered to pay a fine
Or 13s. 4d. and to find sureties to keep the peace for
twelve months.

Joseph.,Nash, a broker in Well-street, near the
Tower, and Peter Lotcheau, a rag-merchant, were
indided for an assault upon Charles Trew, the
keeper of the Green Man, in Hoxton, .and Charles
Hadding, a soldier belonging to the Tower Hamlets
Militia, who was quartered in that house. On the
other hand, there was a cross indictment, by which,
as usual in such cases, the parties changed sides.
Nash and his friend . were charged with very gross
violence in the former charge, whilst, by the oath
of him and his friend; the fault was entirely on the
other side., ..The Jury, however, gave credit to the
story of the publican, the soldier, and some other
persons .present, who spoke to the same etfeet as
they did. They found Mr. Nash guilty of the as-
sault, and lie was sentenced to one mpnth's impri-
sonnient in Cold-bath-fields prison.

FEMALE FlcxPocl ET.7--Frid.ay night, at the Hay-
market Theatre, a Well-dressed footman shewed a
Lady of the Ton into 'a bdx, which was occupied
by, a .Gentleman and two Ladies, The stranger,
who seemed pregnant, with her arms across her
breast, hegged to be excused, as the contiguous box,
which she had engaged, was occupied through- mis-
take by a large party of fashion, to whom she had
conceded her right. She was politely accommo-
dated, and conversed with one, of the Ladies upon
the incidents of the piece, but retired upon the ap-
proach of the Gentleman, and attached herself to
the other Lady, who seemed yery much pleased
with her conversation. She now pretended to be
ill, and ordered her coach. She had not left the
box above twenty minutes, when the Ladies Wfsh-
ing to know the hour, looked for their watches, and
lo they were gone. It now occurred to thew than
the fhiritripostor had false arms, when the real ones
were ~by; no means unemployed. Official research)
has hitherto beenuasuccessital.

DREADFUL• ACCIDENT.

• MOFFATT, ocr. 'LC
" We tad yesterday . a tno,t dreadful storm of
wind and rain, and_tlic risers in the neighbourhood
came.down torrents as were never seen be.,
fore by the oldest pelpie here. amongst the da;-
tyx.-.-go occasioned by it V..e are sorry to state a dis-
tressing 'accident (-which happened to the mail-coach
from Glasgow to Castisle, which passes ibis way, at
the. Bridge over the 'River Evan, about nine miles
from hence, at a 'pint!. Howcleagh, betwixt
i!•
nine and ten.o'clock la:A. night.
" The coach had just -got about half • way. over,
whenTt he bridge gave way is the middle of the arch,
and the coach, passengers, horses, &c. were instant,
ly precipitated into the river, doWn a fall of -35 or
40 feet. 'rhere.,4vere four inside' and .t wo oui side
passengers ; the two latter, and two of the horses
were killed.::apopArtk.vyt, and the gther passengers
had a most miraculous escape with their lives, though
"we are sorry are-all very considerably
hurt ; the coach,tiaand guard were also much hurt,
the former haditireortri broken and was otherwise
much bruised, and the guard got a severe contusion
in the head. . •

" The other coach from Carlisle to 'G!asgow
narrowly escaped sharing the same fate ; it arrived
at the bridge just at the time the accident happened,
and'from the darkness of the night, and the rate the
coach necessarily travels, must inevitably have gone
into the river at the same breach in the arch, had
. not the cries of one of the' sufferers alarmed the
goactlman and induced him to stop.
" By the exertions of the coachman and guard-of
the other coach, the passengers who survived (a La.,
dy and three Gentlemen), with the coachman and
guard, that had fallen:into the abyss, were extricated,
and condueled to a place of safety' until o, her assist-
ance was atrorded them. Much praise is due to the
proprietor; at-Motlatt, for his exertions on this occa-
sion ; irnthediAtely on hearing of the accident he set
,ont in the middle of the night with several of his
servants and surgical assistance, and gate every pos..
si,ble relief to the passengers, and by this means the
London mail and many valuable articles in the coaCh
have been saved. The exertions of one of the proprie-
,tor's servants is particularly deserving notice ; at the
risk of his life he went down the precipice, suspended
by a rope, and saved the lite of-the Lady (one of the
passengers); and recovered the mail bags, which must
otherwise have been carried down the stream. The
bodies of the two passengers have been found and
'conveyed ,to Moffatt, and notwithstanding the deten-
-lion occasioned by this calamity, the mail was yes.
tcrday delivered in town in its regular course."

TUESDAY, MAY 17.
Mr. CLARKE continued to be heard for the Ap-
fellants in the Roxburgh Appeal:--A further hear-
nig to-morrow, at the usual hour. • - -
A Message from the Commons .brought up the
Assessed Taxes Bill, and the Paymaster of the Forces
Audit Bill,, which were read a first time. •
' On the'inotion that the-Assessed Taxes Bill be read
a second time on Tuesday next, some conversation
arose respeding the propriety of printing the Bill.
Lords LAUDERDALE and HOLLAND contended, that
_Bills of that nature' had of late years become so
complicated and involved, that• it was absolutely ne-
cessary their Lordships should have the printed Bills
in theit hands in Order.to form any judgmept of the
tendency, or to be enabled to follow' the different
Clauses and provisions of such Bills. -
The Lona CHANCELLOR and Lord HAWKESEURY
asserted, on the other hand, 'that it- was qaite unusual
to print such Bills ; that they were on the.tablefor
the perusal of their Lordships, and -no such addi-
tional complexity had -of late perplexed those Bills,
as to make it necessary to have:thern.printed.
Lord LAUDERDALE would not now press his mo-
tion for printing of the Bill, but would perhaps bring it
forward to-morrow, as he first wished to have it fix-
ed on what day the second
.reading should take
place.
The second reading of the Bill was then defini-
tively fixed tor Tuesday-,next.
Lord 'HOLLAND expressed a wish that the second
reading of the fridiarnent •Bill might be-deferred at
least till Thursday, as the more he considered it the
more-he was convinced' that the utmost` attention
bouid be paid to the tendency Of it,'and as many
Noble Lords concurred with him in that opinion, to..
Whom it would be more convenient' to attend on
Thursday than to-morrow. -
Lord STANHOPE (nest cheerfully acquiesced in the
,of his Noute Friend to postpone the motion
till Thursday. Indeed he was still more disposed.to
move that it ,be read a second time this day six
mouths. •

Bii'sn!4wg, JUNE 25.—0 n the 24th and 2 tb, qte
Junta met at the ti,,ual honr and place, and held its
seventh and eighth, sittings'. The deliberations on
the projeCt of the Constitutiim were continued, and
each Member delivered his remarks in writing.
Afterwards the Junta settled as a:p.rineipal measure,
that all these remarks should \be :.)Inparedifind well
considered; .as also, that such of them as tend to
improve the projeta of the Constitution, which must
for 'ever establish the happiness of Spain, shall be
taken notice of.

According to intelligende received from 'Spain,
traoquillity is restored in he distriets dt Segovia,
Valladolid, and Placentia : that part of Navarre and
Arragon which is situate on the' fight bank of the
Ebro is also returned to obedience.
• The latest accounts which the Junta have received'
from Madrid, respe&ing Cadiz, as well as the army-
before Gibraltar, are very tranquillising.
• In general, the Captain-Generals, the CCirirOgi-
-006, the Alcaldes, atld the most polished part of
the Spanish' Nation, display the best sentiments;
and in thcise places where insurreCtions had actually
broke out; these comrnotions were only .Occasioned
by the common people, who wanted 'to avail them-
selves of an unsettled time, without a Government,
to commit the most violent excesses.

PARIS, JULY 2—According to letters .from Baur-
deaux, there_ are daily passing strong • divisions of
French troops, coming from all quarters of the king-

The French Privateer La- Nouvelle Gironde is ar-
rived in one of the Spanish
_Ports, after taking five
Prizes.

nuities ate at 85 francs, 25 cents.

DORSTEN, JULY 2.—.—The reports relative to the_
breaking out of insurreetions in the county of

much . exaggerated. It is now known for certain,

The troops which were sent thither from Dusseldorf

INDICTMENT BILL.

The Loan ,CliAtaCFLLon Moved' the second read-
ing of the Bill for Athending the Law with regard
to the course of proceeding on Indiaments and En-
ibrmation in the Court of King'S Bench, in certrnu
cases, ..tics, • • •
Lord Srmsnora rose and inveighed against the
Bill, in very severe terms. It was the most mis-
chievous Bill that had ever been'brought tip from
the other House of Parliament,' and whoever was
the framer of it must be egregiously ignorant of the
law el the land. How such a Bitl could have passed
the House of Commons, where there were many
intelligent and enlightened men, had 'surprised him
exceedingly;. but he afterwards found that none of
them had seen it. This arose from no small abuse.
it was the Custom of the House of Commons, at
the commencement of every Session, to establish
four great Cothrnittees, to one of which this Bill
ought to have been referred., But this custom, like

oth-et good cdstoms, was no longer attended to;
and thus .it must be supposed, this,mass of igno.
rance and mischief pissed without observation.
There was nothing which shoUld be held more sa-
cred than the fundamental principles of the Corn,
mon Law. They contained the quintessence of
wisdom • it must therefore be the' quintessence of
folly to Aisregard or violate them. The fratneF of
the present Bill was guilty of that folly. '}-16 would
try mi..n in their absence, whom the Jury had sworn
to we present- at the bar, he would impriion men
for the 11103 t trifling faults, and render.nugatory or

PROCLAMATION.

. .
People of Spain, Loyal Countrymen, whither
does your blind enthusiasm, arising from your fer-
vent love for our august and beloved Sovereign, FER•
brwANn VII. (for whom we are to die), hurry you
along ? Are you not aware that the excesses you
commit, hurl us to a precipice, and cause the ruin
of the State. Would you be so much misled by pre-
judice, n it to know, that disorganization is the
principal cause of the downfall and destruction of the
most powet-ful Nations! And convinced of that
truth, why do you not hasten to submit to the orders
of a Government which has no more earnest wish
than to die for our Sovereign, who is tot n frornms
by the Usurpation of a Tyrant ? The advantages
arisicg from sujii a line of condua will be truly
great, because, being organized 03 Militia or, Ve-
teran troops, the same number of men,
.who pant for
the welfare of the Nation, will form a body of troops
able to march in any direCtion which circurnstances

regnire,lmi how great will be yoqrsatisfaelion,
w you shaq se:: the tratsquillity and.peace of this

to v roctorcd

" Hitherto von have neled with inconsiderate pre-
cipitance, and done n(ohing, and under the cloak of
your patriotism, rhgues and ruffians rob and der
a thing which cannot but deserve the de-
testa•fion of ad, men •of :sense, and in this manner
theinerit which you might acquire, by gratifying
yourselves to march against the Enemy of our na,
ti..e -country is undone.
"" Valiant Spaniards, be therefore'calm, and pre
pare for honourable combat. Let .3as all endeavour
to perfect the cast plan which has been formed to
attack the frontiers of our Usurpers.
" The voice of reason has dietated'to me these
observations, •and, as Commander in Chief, I tell
you, that I give you my word; tha(the French shall
not shift the flag, or at least not hoist theirs ; any
other measure Would bring ,uumerdus misfortunes
over ourselves. Attempt nothing, because yOu would
disconcert my plan I have already taktn my mea-
2„tres, and within twenty-four hours you shall wit-
