All the Mahratta Troops posted in the different

In consequence of the increase of the carrying
trade from Bengal and the Upper ,Provinces, there
is an uncommon demand for Shipping on the 'Coro-

Vessels are building there.

Resolved, That we cannot sufficiently express our satis-
fattion, and congratulate the 'Country at large, upon seeing
called into His Majest)'s Councils persons of the most
eminent talents, virtue, and experieneeiforming a strong, com-
prehensive, and efficient Auministration, suitable to the
emergency of the times,' and csftulated to promote the great
interests of the Nation.
Resolved, That viewing the able and distinguished charac-
ters composing his Majesty's present Government, we have
the most perfect confidence, that by a revison of past errors—
a reformation of public.abuses—a wise application or our Re-
sources—and an enctual Constitutional Plan for the Na-
tional Defence, this Country, surmounting every difficulty,
may be restored to its for Mer rank, power, and infintmce ;
and the peace, liberty, and security of Ills Majesty's Do-
minions, established on a firm and lasting foundation.
Mr. Deputy GOODBEHEERE seconded the Motion
in a neat speech of a few words. •
After the Ist Resolution was carried without op-
position, Mr. S. DIXON' opposed the .‘"?.d- Resolution,
which expressed a hope that there- would be a nevi-
. slot of past errors and a reformation of public abuses.
On the question being put, however, this resolu-
tion was also carried almost unanimously.
A Young Mani among the Livery, whose. name
we could not learn, then attempted to address the'
Lord Mayor on the subject of some Tords in the
correspondence between him and the Liverymen
who hstl called on him to co4vene the Meeting.
But before the objea which he had in view could be
ascertained, he was called to order by the Lord
Mayor. The young man made a second attempt,
but was again called to order,- on the ground that
- there was not any question then before the Meeting.
Mr. Alderman COMBE. then came forward and
said, he had long felt it to be his duty to oppose the.
measures Which had bees -ad Opted by His Majesty's.
Ministers, and to express the Strongest disapproba-
tion of the system upon which they acted. He had
nowthe utmost satisfaction in perceiving that that
system was at amend. He had the greatest confi-
dence in the present Ministers, and should give them
his most cordial support to.the utmost of his ability,
as long as they continued to a& on- the same prin-
ciples as those which he had hitherto admired in their
public condu&. Nevertheless he should be always-
proud to-receive the instructions of his Constituents
as to his Parliamentary conduit, and when he ceased
to act upon such' advice he would resign his seat to
those who had placed him in it. The OjeEt of his
rising, however, was to state his opinion on a point
of form; if 'the-worthy Liveryman who was just
now called to order intended to conclude with a mo-
tion, in his opinion, he had an undoubted right to
proceed; but if not the Right Honourable the Chief
l‘f-agistrate waSiierfeCtly right in calling hini to order.
Mr. WAITIIMAN; after expressing his general ap-
probation. of the public conduCt of the worthy Repre-
sentative of the Citizens-0f London, and also com-
mending, in the strongest terms, the very liberal
sentiment which he had then delivered, moved,
That the Thanks of this Common Hall be giverrto
vEY CHRISTIAN COMB', Esq. one of the Representatives
of this City, for his manly, consistent, and metitorious eon-
tiuCt• in ; and especially for his resistance to a
Motion made in the• House or Commons for the erection of a
_Monument to thelate unfortunate Minister, Mr. Pitt.
This Motion 'was carried.
The Resohitions were then ordered to be signed
by the Town Clerk, and published in the different
Taper. After which the Meeting adjourned sine die.

On Saturday se'nnight a dreadful fire broke out in
a flour warehouse iii Gilbert-street, Liverpool, and,
notwithstanding the prompt and _vigorous assistance
of the firemen with the engines, the Military, and
a number of private persons,• the warehouse,- with
nearly the whole of its contents, was totally de-
stroyed,in about an hour from its being on fires.
On Saturday s-,!'nnight a child was .found in a
.ditch in-the Parish of Barnoak, near Stamford ; frdm
its appearance, and a stone being fastened round
,the neck, there is great reason to believe it was
thrown 'there by the unnatural mother. The
Coroner's Jury have returned a verdict of Wilful
Murder against some person or persons unknown.

‘.‘. I appeal on the subjea of this Battle to •the
testimony of the Enemy himself. But .the .con-
dna of General NosTirz is well known to every:in-
clividual of the Armies that witnessed these occur-
rences.

Last week a most dreadful accident happened at-
Mr. Davis's coal-pit,• Nail Sea ; whilst three men
were working at about twenty fathoms depth, in-
disengaging the coals, suddenly, a large mass, 'esti-
mated at six. tons weight, which they did not sus-,
PeEt to be suffiCiently loosened, dropped 'from the
cieling upon- which they- Were at work : the centre
man was crushed to atoms,, and perished instantly,
but the other two were disengaged by their compa-
nions, and brought up alive to the' month of the pit.'
The survivors were both excessively bruised, and one
of them had his leg broken ; they were taken to the
Infirmary, where they are doing well, and, it is
very probable, will be speedily restored to their fa-
milies. • • . .
No fewer than thirteen notorious depredators have
been apprehended at Manchester within those few
days past, all of whom are known to belong to the
desperate gang lately concerned in the numerous
robberies committed in that town and Liverpool..
A Danish seaman fell from the top of the' Tor-
point stage coach, on. Saturday se'nnight, as it was
passing through Lostwithiel, and was so'severeley
hurt by the wheel passing :over his breast, that he
died the next day.
At the fairs at. Liskeard and Tregoney during the
last week, both fat and lean cattle sold briskly, and
at good prices.
