AITLF6IIII, Atat;.4.

I The Eliza, bAtitES, gitited titre tin Btifittc
day l•isti having been captured; ti gether, with
the Princess Mary, of 14'atmouth, tittiu
on the With ult, in the Irish Chion.el, by the
Whig, American schooner ph% ateee, at lit:101110mi
-of eight guns and one hundred men. They burnt
. the Princess Mary, and after plundering the Eliza,
throwing part of her cargo (consisting of oats
in bags) of erboard, and wetting the remainder
'with salt water ; she was given up td the itrewt
of both vessels, and suffered to depart. Captain
MATHEVii CLARK-It, Commander of the privateer,
behaved ill the most honourable manner ; buto6t
crew, which Were composctil of English, Irish,
Scotch, inclucll g about dozen Ameritaris,
ducted themselves shamefully, by rnhning the
captured of every thing ,they. possessed. `rip.
Win CLAnka put sekeral in irtms in Order to •
cheek them. One acknowlethzed himself to be-
a native of Liverpool; and t hey all said they
were to eruize in the Irish and BristOl Chaotic:ld
to burn and destroy ; but the :Hastet Said, it
he could take a Hai linen ship he %multi put
the cargo on board the privateer, and be off fur -
America. The Whig is a long black vessel,
with a narrow white streak, and sails fast ; an 4:
it is supposed, front the careful mautterin
-
which the trgister -and other papers belong.ing.rti
the captured vessels Were kept, that although no«
minally a privateer, the owners of her, as well aid
those of several others, ate paid, money and grit 4.-
tuities for any vessels they destroy by the Ameri.i
can Government. The Princess .Alary .vat, bound,
to Plymouth, with provisions, and the Eliza to
London, both from Limerick.

We. are sorry to find that there are retidln:g
among us some secret emissaries, base-enough to
convey information to the American privuteers•oi
the state of such merchant ships as they-may he
liayle to fall in with. The Commander of, the
Pike privateer told the Captain of the Orient,
(Them, he had captured, that be,
.as well as two
other privateers, bad information of all the British
ships t-xpected at Teneritfe, and ordered him to in-
form him of the place %there he had concealed a
quantity of dollars on board, at the same time men-
tioning the number. Wretches who ronvey such
information, whether natives or foreigners, merit
the severest vengeance of the law, and it becomes
the duty of every lover of his country to exert
himself to the utmost fur their detection.—(J3ris4

MITCHELL THE MUEDERER.-It is very stir..
prizint, that the Police Magistrates are not more
active in their entleavtthrs to secure this atrocioul
assassin. A few bills have been !Dated up in the
neighbourhood of the place where this horrid
crime was perpetrated, but surely every Paper in
London, and most of the dis!inguibbed Provincial
Journals, should have Advertisements offering a
reward for the apprehepsion of the miscreant, and
exhorting every friend to justice and humanity
to assist in .discovering the execrable! rutEan..+oiF
We do not recollect an instance in which a crime
so dreadful has been committed, and in which the
efforts to detect the culprit have been so faint, anal
apparently negligent.

Yesterdayafternoon the remains of MissWELcR-
MAN, Who %vas so inhumanly murdered last Thurs-
day night, were removed for interment from the
house in Brook-street, where the melancholy cir-
cumstance took plane. A considerable body of
spectators attended.

Yesterday morning four companies of tLe ad

Highness three cheers, and the Duke ordered
each man a pot of porter. Four compaides of the
Ist battalion of. Ist Regiment of Guards arrived
soon after in St. James's Park, from France. The
Duke of YORK also inspected them, and ordered
them a pot of porter each.
Yesterday morning four companies of the cola.

The particulars of `the will of the late:lEl,Es
PETER ANDREI,-.:EST have been erroneously
given to the public. Several of his friends here
beea.much disappointed in their.expectiitions, but
the Executors, it seems, have acted with grcit
berality on the oceasion.—The Lady %rho has
chiefly benefited by the will has ten thousand
pounds, and four hundred a-year in annuities,
and the interest of:41,0001. in the public funds.
POOLE, AtjG. s.—Monday 'Vary Cook teas exe-
cuted at Dorchester, for the murder of an illegiti-
mate child she had by a farmer, a married mart
with three children,. When brought to toe scut-
fold, she 'appeared penitent, and said she dial
happy, and with a full assurance of pardon fox her
,offenee against the laws et God and the country:
She lifted up her hands as well as she could, awl
exclaimed, "Good people, take warning by itq
fate—take warning, take warning !" She was a
fine young woman, and her fate made a ki;vat
impression.
