EXTRACT "OF A LETTER FROM CAPTAIN THOMAS
MULLION, OF THE SHIP ROBERT, DATED AT THE
ISLAND ,OF GOREE, 23D OF NOVEMBER, TO HIS

OWNER.
" Since t last wrote to you I have to add, that on
the 22d of O&. when I was going to leave this for the,
River, I received a note from the Governor, wishing
to see me on shore, when he informed me he had
just received accounts that a Zebeck Privateer was
seen going into the River. Gambia, and requested to
know if 1, would go.down after her, and endeavour
to take her, and that be would put onboard thirty
Soldiers ; which I readily agreed to -; and that even- •
ing was embarked; one Captain, two Lieutenants,
two Serjeants, two Corporals, one Drummer and
34 Privates, and the same evening weighed and pro-
ceeded for the Gambia.
."
The following day in the afternoon got sight of
the entrance of the River, and shortly after the.
Zebeck was seen working out of the River, with the
Brig Mars in company, whom he had captured in the
River (and whom we have since learned, he had
manned with 50' men) ; we made'all sail after them,
but from the lightness of the-winds it was nine
o'clock at night before we brought the Brig to anion,
which was kept up smartly otl both -sides ;
imme-
diately 'after, the Zebeck came down upon us, but
from the galling fire kept up by the soldiers from
their musketry, and the great sguns, he was frus-
trated in several attempts to board us, although he
tried in every dire&ion. After an hour and a half's
close anion they hauled off, and we were in shoal
water., almost upon the Tougi Rocks, and obliged to
come to an anchor.
• " The following morning -they were in sight in
the S. W. quarter; we immediately got under weigh,
and went in chase' of them ; after running ninety
at sun-down found we were too far off to
keep sight of them, the night being extremely dark,
relinquished the chase : had
,we been_so fortunate
to
.have fallen in with them, and could have
brought them to anion by day light, I have, not the
least doubt but we should have re-captUred . the
Brig, but for the Zebeck, she, sailed too fast. lam
happy,to say, that although we .were hulled in se-
veral places, with our standinv.,and running rigging
cut in several places, and above one hundred shot
through the sails, we did not.lose a man, but will
answer to say they,cannot boat of the same good
luck.
" We have had the Hebe Frigate, Favourite Sloop
of War, and the Arab, 20-gun
,Ship here lately,.
the latter of whom is stationed here; therefore we
may expert a clear coast from Privateers."
N.B. By another Letter it appears that the force
of the Privateer mentioned above, was four 24 and
six 6-pounders, and 130 men. •

The ci-devant Grand Duke of TUSCANY, brother
to the Emperor. FRANCIS IL and now Elector of
SAITZBURGII, has desired his Minister to petition
NAPOLRON to remit the contribution of 6,800,000
franks, demanded of his territories, that only
counts 276,000 subjeob ; not only because ,the
country is' burthened 'with a debt of 5,376,000
franks ever since the last War, but all the revenues
frOm.Pascau and Saltzburgh are under sequestration
in Austria,. arid
,the Emperor, his brother, has ad-
Vanced him 200,000 'florins for the support of his
family : and, haVing no reVenues, His Highness has
been obliged to stop the alimony of the ci-devant
Archbishop of SALTZBURGII ever since.,
In Stiria, Carniola, Carinthia, and Austria, the
French, in 'addition to their requisitions of money
and provisions, have, demanded shoes, pantaloons.,
and other clothing, for their Troops;
A violent affray 'took place on Monday afternoon,
on the road from Harrow to 'Heston, between a party
Of soldiers, consisting of five; and two deserters,
With four of their companions. The former had re-
ceived information that two deserters from the Army
of Defence were at .work in a field, and on their.
making their appearance. they fled. The two men
were pursued across the fields, and the labourers fol-
lowed, .when a general affray took, place, the whole
of them being armed with different weapons: One
of the- deserters, however, was secured after the
scuffle, in which several of each party were much
hurt, and the soldiers conduEted him away; but they
were again assailed by the workmen; who had added
to their number, and another affray took place, in
which two of the soldiers were so dreadfully bruised
that they were unable to walk, - and their comrades
were unable 'to assist them. The objeetS of their at-
tack escaped, *but not without having suffered in the
affray equal to their pursuers.
In the violent storm of snow on the night of
Thursday se'nnight, a man perished on the High
Moors, near Sheffield. His corpse was discovered
under a snow drift, when the thaw came on, on
Saturday. He was on his journey from Manchester
to see his family, 'who lived in Sheffield. The same
day the bodies of two men, who had been lost in
the same storm, were found a few miles from Not-
tingham.
A poor boy,- a day or two ago,_ at the brick kilns,
about a quarter of a mile to the west of Brighton, lost
his life in endeavouring to cross the road in:front of
a ;kraggon, the wheels of which, went immediately
over his neck; and nearly severed hii head from the
body: The Coroner's Jury sat on the body on Wed-
nesday, and returned a vercli6t Of—Accidental Death.
Friday a carter, belonging to Mr. Orchard Idding,
of the parish of Chilton, Wilts, jumpiiig off the
shafts of the waggon going into Marlborough, was
immed by the wheels against the bank, and so vio-
lently bruised, that he expired soon after.
