LONDON, JUNE zo, 180 i.

O Thursday last, in pursuance, of an Order of
Council, the Embargo on SwediSh. Ships was taken
off at PortsmoUth.

WE
,yesterday evening again received Paris
Papers, those to the 1701 inst. They bring us
tittle of imp9rtanee: The 2110u;temi- is siletit as to
the intelligence respeCting Pariugell, which we gave
in our Paper of yestelday, limn the Paris Papers.;
hat the journal des Defeusertrs contains the follow-

ing article
1 NU; Jij' 7. ---Citizen PEI. ix DEMATES,
First Secretary of the Embassy to his Most Christian
King, writes in the following terms, to the Sub-
Preft& of Bayonne.. "Peace will sac it be siglted—
,
the knhassagior hat set outfit. Badajos."
The Paris Papers contain no direct information re-
speCtiug GANTHEAUME'S Squadron, but borrow from
the Frankfort
.7parnal an Article on tile subject.
flat Paper says, " Asccording to Letters from Go-
PNa, of the id inst. Admiral GANTHEAUME has
received express Ordeis from Paris to disembark
as speedily as possible, on the Cpast of fr;po/;, the
Troops on board his Squadron. They are thence to
attempt- to reach Egypt, whatever difficulties they
may meet with in their march." Our Readers may
probahlr recollect, that this was the route chalked
otat for the Troops on board GANTH'EAUME'S' Spa=
tirOn by the
,Opposiqon Papers in this country,,and
they will not therefore give the Franllort journalist
complete credit for this ingenious contrivance.
On the situation of affairs on the Continent, we
find but one article under date of the 9th instant,
from Frankfort! It is said, that the French will,
in all, send 2000 men into Carrel. According to
what has been agreed upon, Cant/ remains under
the 'German jurisdiCtion, and the- inhabitants are
bound only to furnish barracks to the soldiers ; all
other wants are to be paid for in ready money. The
Troops on both sides, conduCl themselves quietly. ;
there are only a few disputes between the •FretiO
Chasseurs and the :Nientzer Hussars. The French
have placed advanced posts abot;i. Cass.,/, and in the
night of the 4th and sth they sent patroles on the
~One side as far as liockbeim, and on the other as far as
, Wisbaden, as in time of War.. The Hana 4 Gazette
adds, to these details, that according to the reports
`in circulation,'" there will be about the end of this
month, 30,000 men on . the right bank of the
Rhine."

LAW REPORT.

COURT OF KING'S BENCH, Fa.inAy, JuNt 19:

COMPOUNDING PENALTIES.

Upon a Motion fqr Leave to compound in a Pe..
nal Milan, and in which there was a consent,

Lord KENYON asked what it vas for ? His Lord:
ship was told, it was to compound a Penalty for
running a Horse Race for a Plate of less value than
Sol, for which there was a. Penalty of 5.01. ; but the
affidavits stated, that the party who had incurred
the Penalty was poor ; the sum agreed to be paid
to the Informer was no less than tol. ; ,and there
was also to be paid to the Poor of the Parish to!.
and upon which there was a consent on the part of
the Parish.

Lord KENYON said, there might be a consent on
the part of the Parish, but there- was' as yet no con-
sent on the part,of that Court. His Lordship 'said,
that the Legislature had direeled that these Races
should be prohibited, as injurious (for so-they were)
to the morals of the inferior classes of the~ Commu..
nity. It kept them from their honest oceupa-
,tions, and wasted their time, as well is having
a' bad etre& Upon their morals. These points
being considered, the Legislature had attached
large penalties to this practice; and the size of
the penalty was intended to. operate as a prohibi-
tion of the. prattice, (at least among the lower or_
ders), and the Court of King's Bench -Was not to
repeal the Statute upon Motion. . Upon this view of
'the case, his Lordship was of opinion .the Court ,
should-not grant these motions, even upon consent,
for leave to compound these ACtions at all, except
upon circumstances the most special ; he Arndt&
therefore not take . the formal consent of a Gentle-
man at the Bar holding a biief for that purpoSe : he
did 'not mean to insinuate that any thing unfair was
intended in this ease,• but the Court should guard
against possible abuses ; and it was possible for any
Attorney in connivance with the •Attorney for the
Defendant, 'to give a Counsel a -Brief to instruct"
him to consent on behalf of a Parish; and yet the'
Parish may never have heard any thing of the
matter, for which reasons his Lordship suggested,
and then the Court ordered, that 'before this Rule
shall be granted there shall appear an affidavit ex-
pressive of the real consent of the Parish to com-,
pound, as well as the Informer.

THR THEATRRe-.—The Comedy, of Thr
.lleir at
Law was represented last night at the Haymarket'
Theatre. Mrs. MouNTAtx performed the part of
Caroline Pormr, instead of Miss Dg CAstlywho•
has left this Theatre, Mrs. Mows-I-mil is not
much calculated for the expression 'of pathetic de-
licacy, and therefore the character would have been
more properly assiimed to Miss MURRAY . Po wr LL
'fromDrury:Line Theatre, made his first appearance
last night as".-Stedide; to which he imparted a
manly spirit. *The Epilogue, suppqrted by the
charaders in general, went off with tolerable spirit.

but relinquished his Command as Lieutenant-Colo.
nel of the Royal Exchange Division of Loyal Lon-
don Volunteers, and Major. BIRCH has been una-
elc4td to the dice of. Li‘utenant-Colonel ;
but we tuitierstand, that after expressing his grati-
tude for the high honour aitiferred, he has.declined
taking upon him that important situation, wishing
to retain only his present rank.

The effect or the grouper Where Sir SIIMEY
SMITH and GHEZZAR PACHA form the prominent
features, in Ygxi E it's great Piaure at the Lyceum,
is much improved since its first exhibitien, by the
gradual melioration of. the light it apioper tone,
and the whole extent of this popular Painting is
now viewed by the 'SpeCtator without either
.the
glare, or the-obscurity which paftially injured its
drat while the colouring of the dome-lights was
in a raw scate.

A ruAttcholy "accident hippened on Thutsday
se'qight, during the march of two troops of the
Royal Regiment of Horse Guards from Kettering
to Northampton. As one of the baggage waggons,
heivily Wen with military chests, S‘c. was come
ing down a hill near Wellingborough, it was un.
fortunately overturned, whereby several women
were precipitated to the ground, one of whom was
kilted on the spot, and two others were dreadfully
bruised.
