ships lying in the river, some of which sailed in October, but

fresh stock of provisions.

CUXHAVEN, JAY. 4.

Capt. Wardle has arrived here with the English Stalls of the
28th and 31st, and says that those of the 21st and' 4th had been
sent from Harwich by a fishing boat on Christmas-day, and had
probably been driven by the storms to the coast of Norway._
Eight Mails from London lie here, none having been dispatched
since the 6th ult. , .

JANUARY 6

The English Mails of the 21st and 24th were brought here by
a Heligoland boat this morning at ten o'clock. The extra
boat John and Elizabeth, which was to bring them to Heli-
goland, was lost on the morning of the 4th to the North of that
island. The Captain, seeing his ship stranded and his rudder
lost, embarked with his men and one passenger in the long-
boat,- and reached Heligoland in safety. The ship cannot be
got off, but much will be saved. small chest for the Duke
of Cambridge is lost, supposed to have been washed overboard.

We have this week the painful duty imposed
upon us of recording an afflicting and irreparable loss which
the Isle of NVight has sustained in the death of its re-
spected and much beloved representative, Sir LEosann
WO RSL EY HOLMES, Bart., Member for Newport, and Re-
corder of that Borough_a man who, whether his character be
contemplated in the relations of private life, as a son, a hus-
band, and a father ; in social life, as a friend and a gentleman ;
or in public life, as a Member of Parliament and a Magistrate,
has not left his superior on this side the grave. His urbanity
of manners and kindness of heart conciliated towards him the
affection and esteem of all men anti all parties, however differ-
ing in worldly views, or divided in religious or political opi-
nion; whilst his ample fortune and great political weight,
enabled him to second the kind affections of his nature, and
to be a friend to all around him.—His health had been for
some time declining, and he died on Monday the 10th instant
in the meridian of life, not having attained his 39th year. He
has left three daughters, but no son, and, we believe, no male
heir, in which case this ancient Baronetcy, which is one of the
earliest creation of James the First in 1611, will become ex-
tinct.— At a Meeting of the Commissioners of the town of
NVest Cowes, held at the Town-hall, on the 14th instant, it
was unanimously resolved, upon the motion of George Ward,
Fsq. of Northwood Park, that every mark of respect should be
recommended to be paid by the inhabitants to the memory of
the late Sir Leonard ‘tiorsley Holmes, Bart. by shutting up
their shops and closing their windows, on Wednesday the 19th
instant, the day of the funeral. That this mark of respect is
due to him, for his public character as an upright and impar-
tial Magistrate, front the attention and respect which he paid
upon every occasim; to promote the interests and prosperity of
this town, and from the many virtues he so eminently dis-
played in his private situation. That these Resolutions be
connnunicated forthwith to the inhabitants at large.—lt is the
intention of the Society of Freemasons, at Cowes, to attend the
funeral of the lamented Sir 1,. W. Holmes, on Wednesday
next.--(liamprhire Telegraph.)

NVe received this morning, by Express from
Paris, the ;toile dated yesterday. Nothing im-

Peers or ►hat of the Deputies. The following

which informed him, that an English frigate had arrivc•
at Lisbon with Commissioners from England and Aust->
who, together with Commissioners from Portugal were to pro'
ceo.d to this capital to treat on the arrangements for the re'
cognition of our Independence. If this is true the ('urn'
missioners may soon he expected, and we have no doubts
that under the auspices of two such respectable nations 0
England and Austria, our differences with Portugal will be
adjusted, and our Independence recognised.

A Dutch Mail arrived this morning, but 09
Papers brought by it do not supply any political
news. The folloviing is the only intelligence of
the least interest :

HAARLEM, JAY. 14.
The accounts that we receive of the state of the rivers are
more favourable : the Rhine continues to tall, and we hope
that we shall not be again exposed to the alarming situation
in which we have been so long placed.

By the packet-ship Aleut?:ler and the 314
Crisis, which arrived from America at Liverpool/
we have received Philadelphia Journals to the
21st, and those of New York to the 19th of last
month, from which the only articles worth ex"
,•j ,
tracting are the subjoined
PHILADELPiIIA, DEC. 20.-44 The brig Alisana arrived
at Baltimore in 13 days from Laguira, informs us that a French.
brig of war lu.d arrived there to d,mand satisfaction for an
insult offered to one of the French vessels of war. The Vera:"
rued:, C Ipta:n Chitty, n Colombian corvett , while crub.in4
off Carthlgenv, fell in with the French brig of war Caseres
bound to Martinique, and not liking her appearance, o
the Capta'n on board whli his pao-rs, with which he complied
without t e leas, resistance, although of equ; 1 Mice; but on hill

" Santa Martha Papers of the lst November, received at
Boston, mention the arrival of Bolivar at Hu mcago on the 31st

Camerae, with the remnant of his army, was retreating to-
wards Cuzco. General La Fuentes, Colonel Purey, and other
officers of Bolivar's army, left '['ruxillo on the lit September

Th© French Journalists, we find, continue to
attack the Government of this country for giving
countenance to the independence of the
Ke-
publics of Mexico and Columbia. The hide-.
p.,ndence of both is matter of fact, and it is iro-.
possible for them to b. redui ed to their former
state of submission to a distant controul. There
Journalistsattempt to frighten us on the ground of
legitimacy, and point to our Am •rican depen-
dencies, to India, and to Ireland. If ever the
time came when oar American Colonies and k,ur
Asiatic Settlements -should be desirous of
throwing off their dependence on Great
Britain, and should have as much power
to support a reparation, as Mexico and Co-
lumbia have to secure their political freedom,
we should not imitate the f(,lly of Simi',
hopeless attempt to mainta•n our
over them. The truth is, as we !Live before sit -
served, that the prompt sagacity of G reat Brita
forming commercial connexions Kith thos,e Re-
publics, naturally tending to the formal recogni-
tion of their Independence, actually achieved and
infallibly secured, must be a subject of mortifi-
cation to French Statesmen, and of course the
ground of all their envious spleen, senseless cla-
mour, and prophetic denunciation.
