GIBRALTAR, OCT. 4-

ON the 3oth of September the Vincego brig, com.
manded by Capt. PRoyosT, arrived. Mere from
Alexandria, in 47 days, having touched at Malta
and Algiers is her way. She left Algiers five days
before her arrival here. In going into Algiers she
was chased by a Portuguese Squadron of two Sail of
the Line and several Frigates and Sloops that were
then blocking up that port. All the Algerine
traizers were then in harbour.

',:!,Tbeisame day arrived here the Thames Frigate,
Rota Malta, with dispatches ;rom Sir RICHARD
BICKERTON, to the Squadron here, with orders for
them to get ready for sea with the utmost expedi-
tion in consequence of which, the greatest bustle
and aftivity has prevailed in equipping every ship
with six months provisions and stores of every
kind ; arid the Gibraltar having now shifted her
foremast, and repaired the damages she sustained in
the late thunder storm, will proceed up the Medi.
terranean to-morrow, if the wind is favourable,
with the four other Sail of the Line now in the
Bay, viz. the Superb, Dragon, Triumph, and Re-
notun. . The only man of war then left will be the
Adifue Frigate, which is still lying in the Mole,
repairing her damages. '
The opinion of the best informed here is, that
these five Sail of the Line are going to join Sir
RICHARD BICKERTON'S Squadron, to watch the
motions of the formidable armament which the
French have for some time past been collefting at
Toulon—at first under pretence of attacking Al.
gicri. The Thames, after delivering her dis-
' patches, sailed instantly again to join Sir RrcHAF.rs
BICKERTON. _ .

Yesterday afternoon a French Line of agile Ship
with six hundred troops on board, having under
convoy eight other ships with Troops, passed this
port from Toulon, in their way to Cape Francois.

Monday' Dispatches were received' at Plymouth
from the Admiralty, and put on board the Rosario,
of z 4. guns, Capt. Mou NSEY. She immediately got
under weigh from Hamoaze, and came to an anchor
in Cawsand Bay, for the night. The next morning
at nine o'clock, though the wind was mostly S. W.
a4id by S. at the turn of the tide she sailed from
aii) kind Bay with her dispatches and sealed orders,
''inaklng a large offing in the South-east quarter ; it
'ls',eOn.jeaured she is bound to Malta.
That gallant and good Officer, Rear Admiral
THORNBoRQUGH, of the Blue Squadron, is certainly
to hoist his Flag on board the Hussar, of 38 guns,
Capt. P. WILKINSON, fitting for sea in Hamoaze,
and is to have the command a the Western Squa-
dron' of Frigates.

MAITLAND GOLDNEY.

Ma. Gaaaovir made a short address to the Jury,
i►► which he informed them it was unnecessary to
call their attention for many minutes. He did not.
trouble his Learned Friend to open the pleadings,
because, what had passed already in private super-
ceded the necessity of going on with this cause.
Mr. Maitland, the Plaintiff, was well known to the
Jury as an eminent Merchant ; he was, beneficially
for the Borough of Chippenham, conneeled there,
and esteemed, as he was every where else where Le
was known. A misunderstanding took place be.
tween him and the Defendant, which gave birth to
a publication which was a libel upon the charader
of Mr. Maitland, and to vindicate that charader
he brought this a&ion for slander, and in such a
shape as afforded an opportunity to have the charge
made against him justified, if it could have been
justified, or retracted. That charge was now re-
tratcted, and an ample apology was offered to the
Plaintiff, such as, upon consultation, his Counsel
thought he might, consistently with the vindication
of his honour, accept. His oiled never had been
a pecuniary recompense for the slander ; he wished
for nothing but that it be made public as a vindica-
.tionof his charaler, and that being accomplished,
this cause was at an end.

Mr. EasKINE, on behalf of the Defendant, ac.
quiesced in the sentiments expressed by Mr. GAR•
:Row for the Plaintiff, and said, the interruption
which unhappily took place in the friendship of the
Parties was the mere effea of misconception, for
whiCh the Defendant made an apology that was
worthy of both their el-in-faders. This was not an
apology- such as was sometimes made by Counsel as
a matter of form, hut the genuine feeling of the
Defendant himself as a man of honour, and which
he would have delivered for himself, but that by
the rules of the Court, he could, in the present
state of things, speak only by the mouth of his
Counsel.

The Jury were then discharged from giving any
verdia.—Juror withdrawn.
This was all that transpired in Court this day.

BRITISH SCHOOL.

THE new Institution which we noticed a few
days ago, under this title, was yesterday submitted
to public inspeEtion. The purport of this Institu-
tion, as we then stated, is to afford an opportuairr
for Artists to display such of their prodations "44
they intend for sale, and to contribute towards the
support of themselves and their families in case °`
sickness and death. This Institution evidently de;
serves public encouragement, and from the unitea
contribution of some of our best Artists, it is veil
likely to obtain that encouragement. The place in
which these proddlions are exhibited, is the 13.001111
in Berner's-street, that was lately allotted to
M. DESENFANS' fine Colleaion. It is the obje6
of this Plan to afford an almost constant variety, 2°
the works of the several Artists are to remain
.short time, and then give place to others from thc
same hands. Nu Cops or Works of the old Mt's'
ters ate to be admitted, except those of this Coan'
try.
Among the proddlions now on view we obsero
ed some from Sir josxuA REYNOLDS, WI 1.50:4,
WEST, OP E, BOURGEOIS, \VESTAL L, the late
Sf.RR ES, I..ftEsFIANT, TRumBITLLi the younger St"

AGLE, PHILLIPS, RIGAUD, ASHFORD, STOTHARI7°
IVIORE L AND, W. PORTER, TURNER, DOWNMPJI;
IBBETSON, &c. &c. the whole constituting a vet
gratifying proof of the powers of British Gen° ti
very well calculated to give eclat to the opening °

a BRITISH SCHOOL.
The pres;ding Manager is, we understand, .eri
SERRES, who addressed the Company in a 1.114
well-writt4n Speech, explanatory of the prinuline
and objeas" of the Plan, in the course of which 70
paid some liberal tributes to the talents of bi
Countrymen, and spoke in terms of respectful g4;o#
titude of the Pittsc E of WALES, who is the Patt
of the Institution.
