Aix.'o'clocli this movnieg he visited the public offi-
ces, the arsenals and wharfs of she port. His Ex-.

GIFENII.OIORN, SEVr.tP2 —Among the extraordi-
tin carer
y c;rnstances which took place here during the
siege, the Itiliowing instances of nersuns saved in the
'niche of great danger, are not the least remarkable.
While a young bri.,!e and bridegootn were very busi-
ly employed in taking sorne"goods out of a hamper,
u bump frno the Eneniies' ,hatteries fell into the
tamper, and burst t here. The two lovers were by
the shock thrown senseless to the ground, hut when
they recovered they found themselves unhurt,
though surronnded by dead and wounded who had
`fallen in cotri,:gueuce of the bursting of the hhell.
A leans`, ‘ehieli entered the.sick and wounded hos-
laihi did no harm, excepi bruising a little an old
%mum). The house of M. L'2I,INT.I!Z; the Minera-
logist, w.ts tit'strmed, anti' ho was extricated, un-
hurt, . from under the ruins. The Ste,bbehiobing

and iiii tii meo, who were throat into the water,
,vere Saved without havinl.t'sn•itailil any injury.—
The, Fire insittauce Company have given a noble
ample of honour and geuerosity, by agreein4 to
Pay for the !looses destroyed by the Enetnrs fire.
The stmfortteiate destruaion 'which the ..tOwn has
sustained afford an opportunity for rebuilding
partswhich have sustained damage with greater
regularity. On the aiell of August, accounts were
r"cived at Elsitteur, from Sweden,.that all Swedish
11Pe.ts are strialy prohibited from going on board the
4,P0511 Ships, and that 4ott artillerymen have been
ordired to repair to Carlscrone.-

SCHIEDAM, Sen. 1 8.-"-It is said that a coolness
'subsists between our King and his Imperial brother,
the former having refused, or at I..ast negleeted,:, to
put the requisition in three here during the Polish
campaign; and still, persisting he„ will never do so,
since he has taken an oath to the contrary. This,
added to the humidity 'of our climate, is said to be
the cause of his Majesty's long absence, which. will
probably still be protra&ed, as there is a report that
SCHININIELI!ENNINCK is to officiate as Viceroy ;-
Others say that King Lot ts,lin,:conseqnenee of the
representations made to him, convineed of
the inadequacy. with resped
,to England, and the
:connequesst runs of this country, of the reitrielions
laid on commerce, and wished to oppose the_late
severe measures ; but, being unable to succeed,
thinks it eadVisable to keep at a distatice from the-
seat or murmur and complaint. Certain it is, that
the loss of the inward and outward duties lays the
most heavy burdens on the people:
