_ There are strong reasons to believe, that a scar-
city of grain exists throughout the French Republic,
and particularly at Paris. At a grand dinnerlately
given by the First Consul, which was very nume_
rously attended, bread of a very inferior quality
was served. This circumstance is noticed in pointed
language by the Parisian Journals, and the bread
extolled as good and pleasant. It is, no doubt,
nientioned as an example for general imitation.
Mr. ER I DAN seems to stand a fair chance to be
chosen. Associate of the French National Institute.

to admit nor to admire them than onrseiveS.
- if Mr. SHER I DAN should be chosen an Associate
for the class of Literature and the Fine Arts in the
National Institute of France, he will hardly be in-
duced to decline the office, as it will certainly be a
sine-cure.

rical drama of King Henry the_Fift4, or Th,e

last eight, and in a manner highly creditable to the
management. The dresses were splendid, and the-
characters on the whole supported with eVi, In
fad, however, the charaCter of Henry is the only
one in the Piece that demands any great portion of
ability, This Charancr KENIBLE always repte-
-sented with suitable dignity, feeling, and spirit ;
and he did not manifest any abatement of these quaj
lities last night. WROUGHTON in the Duke of
Ex:ter- deserves a dis;ina notice ; it was manlY
and interesting. His account of the death of York
and SzOroJk Was very alfeding. This Play abounds

of Englishmen: There was a numerous Audi-

HAGUE, Nov. 2g.

THE terrible storm which began on Saturday
evening, continued.with most unusual violence till

and did incredible damage on our Coasts. We

Admiral DE WTNTEK is returned from the

LISL2OIV, DEc. z.

Jr appears that this cquntry, which has suffered
least by the War, will enjoy the blessings of Peace
in the highest degree. The Minister of State, Don
RO,DRIGUEZ"de SotrA., and the Marquis de P,,)M-
4AL,'whom the Prince has placed at the head of the
Senate, are seriously intent on reforming all abuses
in- Government. On the 26th of November, a
Criminal who • had ,assassinated five persons, was
executed ; and on the ;Sth, another Criminal of
the same description shared the same fate. No such
instaiices of justice have before been witnessed for
these four years and a half, not indeed for want
'of crimes,:, for it is calculated that' assassination in-
. Portugal destroys no less that one person pet day'
throughout the year. The Prince has promised to
grant no pardon to any Assassin, and a Law has
been' proclaimed by which such criminals are to be
executed in three days. Notwithstanding this ex-
ample, ho.vever, a soldier of the Regiment of Lis-
bon stabbed a Portugueze seaman while a criminal •
was carrying to execution; he was seized and car-
ried to prison. On the zsth, the very night be_
fore the first execution, a brave Officer ir, the Poi-
tugueze Navy was attacked in his bed at nine in
the morning, and stabbed 'by three sailors in as
many places.; 'notwithstanding this, he was able to
seize his sword and tO drive away the assassins.
His servant, who had left. his door open while he
ran to the Apothecary's, has been detained on Suspi-
cion.---Trom this you may judge of the necessity
and propriety of the ahoye Law. •

A Mr. LETFIE has received public notice, that if
he does nut fetch away his horse aim I chaise, they
will be sold to pay expenses. Judging from the
name of this Gentleman, it is no wonder that he
should be forgetfuL
The observation that Lord HOLLAND sat on the
woolsack on a
.recent Occasion, has excited the ani-
madversion of a PtiblioTrint, which intiinateg that
his Lordship is not likely to unite With. Ministry,
but still to join in Opi4itiim,woo/lathering.
At Reigate (Surrey) Fair, whlch was held on
Wednesday last, there was a very handsome show
of lean cattle, chiefly Welch, which, from the
abundant feed, Were eagerly boeght up at high
prices. Fat beasts were, in the language of the
dealers, above all price. About 500 sheep were
SheWn; and sold well.

At 'the Adjourned Sessions at 'Guildhall yester-
day,- Several convictions for Assaults took place ;
and Thomas Manica was tried upon an Indidment

.and supported by the City of Lon-
don.—The Defendant was, after the examination of
several witnesses, convkled, and sentenced to one
year's imprisonment in Newgate, tu'Which he was
conveyed direaly. -• • •
