LONDOIV, FEBRUARY 6, 18o2:

IT is finally settled; we understand, that Sir Joitx
MITFOItD succeeds the late Earl of CLARE, as
Irish Chancellor, and that Mr. ABBOT is to be the
new Speaker of the House of Commons. This
Arrangement, we have no doubt, will give unive.
sal satisfitaion.

WE are sorry to state, that the account received
some days ago, of the Loss of His. Majesty's Sloop
Utde, of 18 guns, Capt. P. CANTS, is confirmed
by intelligence brought by the Prince Adolphus
Packet from Lisbon. She was bound f. 6 Minorca
and Malta, with Money to pay the Troops, and
unfortunately overset in a violent gale of wind, in
the Gut of Gibraltar. it was feared that all the
Crew had perished.

Firs MA,' Es-t' yesterday morning at nine o'clock
left Town for Windsor.

The Qu P. EN and PRINCESSES, with their attend_.
ants, followed at noon, in their carriageS.
The ROYAL FAM T. y are expected in Town on
Wednesday, when His iVIAj ES TI will hold a Levee
at St. James's Palace.

Lord KENX'ON, we are happy to sav, was rather
better last ni,vht, and his health has been mending
for the last tnree days.
His MAJESTY has appointed ALEXANDER FRP.-
SEk TYTLER, Esq. to be a Judge of the Court. of
Session, in the room of the late Lord STON EF ELD.

This morniog arrived a Mail froni Lisbon, brought
to Falmouth by the Prince Adolphi.i Packet, in five
days

. .
If the account brought by the Ilardurjh Mail
which arrived.yeuterdy, be authentic, it shews a dis-
position, on the part of the TurkiSh Governiiient, to
esteem Great Britain as the lirost favoured. Nat;on;
in which case; froM the numbor of our Shipping,
and the enterprising spirit of Our Merchants, toge-
ther Witli the poweiftil means they possess of secur-
ing to themselvei a new channel of Commerce,
there can be nb doubt, but that the Trade of this
Country will be in'creased, intend of being di-
minished by the Peace, ai some have euperticially
imagined.
Nothing can be wiser and more politic than for
our GOrerimient to Open new sources of Traffic; by
which the genius of Our Nation may be kept alive,
&ft. Se.amen employed, and mit. ReVenties ultithately
increased. The Trade with Thrkey; once the most
important to, and held almost exclusively by
the Fretrch; may,
.by the gratitude of the Porte,
be thus converted into a lucrative branch of Eritish
COthnieree. It cettairily Will be the most gratifying
to the People of thiS Country, beeatist it has been
fairly and hciiimirably won:
Thursday morning a detachment of the GUarde,
consisting of ico men, landed at the Sally Port,
Portsthouth; from PEnpienne ; several of them
appeared to be blind; having bandages tied round
theist eyes; Another detachment of the Staff landed
in the afternothii and ittarched for Petersheld on
their route to town.

In consequence of an otder froth the War-Office,
received at Birmingham, several Recruiting Patties
beat tip, there on Monday ; but it is only to com-
plete the old Regiments, lessened by deaths and
discharges, and no more than a peace bounty is
offered for recruits..

The similarity of the fate of C.lipt. FITZ G ERALD
and Governor WALL is somewhat remarkable :
They bcith belonged to the 69th Regimint of Foot ;
and in the year 176? they fought a Duel at Gal.
way. The former was hanged for murder at Castle
Bur, and the latter fot the same crime in London.
