Sailed the American ship Charles for America.

DEAL, JAN. 3.—By the Master of an American
ship arrived here from the Baltic, which was one
of the fleet under the St. George, we learn, that
the said ship (the St. George) passed under the stern
of his vessel on the 23d ult. during the• gale, ap-
parently all well (except as to the damage in her
mast preciously icccircd in tho i3,4t), and was at
that time about 200 miles from the coast of Jutland;
which, from the duration of the gale, he thinks she
could not have reached : hopes are therefore still
entertained of her safety.
A man of suspicious appearance has been ap-
prehended here to-day on suspicion of being one of
the murderers : he stands committed for examina-

tion to•nnorrow.

The following letter is taken from a Morning Pa-
per of this day :
Westbourn Green, Tan. 2., 1812.

SlR,—Having this morning had two paragraphs
pointed out to me, in your Papers of Dec. 31 and
the following day, which, if. uncontradideJ, are cal-
culated to injure both Mrs. C. Kemble, and myself
very much in the public opinion, I beg. leave to ac.,
quaint you that the intormation which t hey contain
le; utterly false ; and I hope that you will allow me,
through the medium of your valuable Paper, to warn
their author, that if he does not desist from his base
and cowardly attacks, I shall, though most unwil-
lingly, be compelled, in self-defence, to publish the
wt.'s:AA correspondence between Mr. Harris, sen.
and myself, with a brief statement of the treatment
which Airs. C. Kemble and I have experienced
from that Gentleman since we have been engaged
in Covent-Garden Theatre ; or resort to such legal
measures as will effectually , protect' our .characters
from the assaults of anonymous calumny.
I am, Sir, with great respect,
Your very obedient servant,
• CHARLES KEMBLE.

LYCEUM.--The new Comedy of Right and
Wrong was represented again last night, and expe-
rienced a more favourable reception than on its first
appearance. The sentiments, though by no means
charaaerised by novelty, are impressive, and, in
general, well expressed. There is no perplexing
intricacy in the plot, and, upon the whole, it may be
considered as a tolerable medium play, exempt - from
extreme improbability on the one hand, and inci-
dents of too trifling and familiar a cast on the other.
But if the play had much less intrinsic merit, the
general excellence of the aEling would render it in-
teresting and amusing.

Yesterday a Gentleman arrived in this city from
Lisbon, . who left the British at my about 14 days
since, who were in perfect tranquility in winter
quarters, the greater part in good health and spirits.
The sick list, which a few months ago arnounted to
10,000, were then reduced w 5000, and daily de-
creasing.—(Exeter Paper).
In consequence of the reported intention of Mr.
BAILLIE declining the representAion of the city of
Bristol, E. PIWTHEHOE, Esq. has announced himself
a candidate. Sir S. llctstiLLY has already been
recommended as a proper person to suc,eed Mr.
8A11.1.1 E.

of one million sterling, ;tor duties frauJolentty with-
held by brewers in various parts of the kingdom;
