The Princes having arriVed at the Garden, the

Princes as long as they should stay at the entertain-

the Princes at the exhibition of fireworks until
nine o'clock at night, when he took leave and went
away. At parting OMDUT UL OMRAH said to us,
" You will , give my tespe&ful compliments, by
way of remembrance to his Majesty,. and inform
him, that he may consider me frOm my heart at-
tached to him, and that, please God, at a proper
occasion my fidelity towards him shall be made
manifest to him."

ABOUT THE STH OF JUNE, 1793.)

. - -
Refuge of the World ! yesterday the Well-wisher
.
of Mankiad sent the following message by KHADAR
NEWAZ KHAN: "At this time a complete rup-
ture has taken place between the English and French.
The story of the King of the French and their do-
mestic commotions are well known. Six or seven
European Powers have united for the destruaion of
the French, and you will soon heat that the whole
of the French Territory has been divided amongst
others. The English (Troops) here at Madras will
proceed in a day or two against Pondicherry. Al-
though there is a body of troops in that place, yet
domestic dissentions have risen to the utmost pitch
there, and nothing will be:done, and the place will
at length be taken. My Objea in mentioning this
event is this :—The \faked. of the Ahmedy Sir-
car, who was at Pondicherry, has lately, it seems,
returned to the Presence (TIPYOO SULTAUN.)
Please God, there is no doubt that the Sultaun
keeps in view all the ups and downs of the time.
At this time no kind of assistance will be afforded ;
but out of that friendship which I feel for the Sul-
taun, I recommend that the Vakeel remain a short
time at the Presence, and also that epistolary cor-
respondence be discontinued for a short time. Al-
though a friendly connexion has long subsisted with
the French on the part of the Ahmedy- Sircar, yet,
considering the circumstances of the times, it is
not advisable (that is to maintain an epistolary cor-
respondence with the French) ; should there be any
point of urgency to communicate, there is no ob-
jeaion to du it verbally. For God's sake, let not
the Sultan!) ascribe what I say to a wrong motive ;
I am aluated solely by my good wishes in making
this Communication. Since the day that a cordial
union took place between us, let me be no longer
a Mussulman, nor a servant of God, if I have not
always offered up my prayers for the Sultana's
good, and afterwards for my own. May the AI
mighty preserve firm and uninjured the Mahom-
medan Church, and the safety of the Sultaun 1"

KHAN AND ALL I REZZA KHAN, TO TIPPOO SUL-

TAUN ; DATED 15TH OF SUMREE, OF THE YEAR
SCHIR 1221, A. N. it.. (ANSWERING TO ABOUT

THE 23D JULY, 1793.)

The Nawaub WALLA) A!-1 .has repeatedly sent
word to us, by Kit .41) R NEWAZ KHANi that he
had something of a secret nature which he wished
to say. to us in private';''ailAi'ng, that if we would
go, under pretence of seeing a mosque which his
Highness has built, he would send OMDUT tjL OM-
RAH alone to meet us. Accordingly on- the 17th
of Tuckee (answering to about the erst of June,
1793) we went to the mosque ; whither OMDUT
UL OMRAH repaired also. On the left of the
mosque is the tomb of a -celebrated devotee (by
name FuTles SHAH) who died about slx months
ago, and eteeled at his Highness's expence. Under
pretence of performing the Fautehah (or prayers
for the dead) OMDUT vt. OMRAH took' our hands
and carried us into the tomb. When there,- he
asked us, whether we had_ full powers from your
Majesty, or were under the necessity of making
reference upon every 'subled ? We rep Led, that
we hactbeen a year and more in attendance here,
during which period many. points of business had
been negotiated, and continued to be negotiated,
by us and that, please Goa, our proceedings were,
and would be approved and confirmed by' your Ma-
jesty; and that with. his ((Detour Ur, Omames)
knowledge of this, his question- appeared very ex-
traordinary to us. That it was
.proper to put to
Vakeels, that we were only servants and well.
wishers of the Sircars ; and that we had powers
to at in any thing that appeared to us calculated
to promote your Highness's interest and wellfare;
but in the other case not. OMDUT vL OMRAH
was much pleased, and, smiling, said, to us, " So
it ought to be." He then delivered the following,
on the part of the Nawaub WALLAJAH
for a very long time, there had been, without a
cause, a veil (or want 'of-. cordiality) between his.
Highness and your Majesty, which had been pro_
duftive of injuries to both; but now that, by the
favour of God, a system of harmony, such as is
becoming among the Professors of Islamism, had
taken place, his Highness confidently hoped,from
God, the prime Cause of all, that the time past
might be amply redeemed; that for. his Highness's
own part, considering from his heart himself, his
Country, and his property, to [Along to your
Majesty, lie had made it a testamentary, injunc-
tion to his children and family, taking God
and his- holy •Holy. Prophet to witness, to pray

ascertain Your Majesty's wiishes on this :load
in a manner satifaCtory to both, and if Your
Majesty should be, from yout heart, S licit Out of
this propciged cordial harmony, his Highness would;
wider the testimony of God and his Prophet, detail
td us his sti:tiinents fully at the tithe of our dcpar_
tore, which, please God, would soon take place.—:

•AGR !CULTURAL IMPROVEMEiciT.—A moveable
barn floor has been constructed by Mr. UPTON, of
,Petworth, in Sussex„ which,,in the opinion of Lord
EGREMONT, will prevent the consumption of valu-,
able timber, so injurious to the landed interest of
the kingdom, and be a considerable saving of Corn
to the Public, as it effektually prevents a waste of
, corn in Iln-cshing, and by giving an addition of
one foot at least in height, will admit a higher load
of corn ; and, as the horses, instead of drawing the
waggon up an ascent, upon a slippery bottom, xlraw
upon a hard bottom,- and.level with the farm-yardr,
two horses can perform the work of four, gene-
rally, now used: - This floor affords also a warm
and convenient' shelter for hugs, when it is
down, and when turned up, may be used as a
stable, ox-stall, hovel, or cart-house. Two met?
can place or displace it in five minutes ; and, from its
allowing an easy access to cats and dogs under it,
affords no harbour for vermih.—Lord Eo R Emo NT has
had a floor construed upon Mr. "UPTON'S prin-
ciples, which, in addition to its excellence on ac-
count of its superior elasticity, has another advantage
which his - Lordship is said to have approVed of
highly—this. is occasioned by the great cavity under
•the floor, which causes the stroke of the flail to re..
sound so much, that it may be heard a mile round;
so that the I: miler when on any part of his grounds,
can tell whether his men are industrious or idle.

The mezhol for preventing the. Fly in turnip
crops is not, as has been stated, a new discovery ;
it is mentioned in Dodsley's Annual Register for
year 1768, under the head Useful Projeds, and
elsewhere ; and without the previouS preparation of
steeping the radish seed, to quicken vegetation,
the proposed end will no't be answered, repeated in-
stances having occurred, where the turnips had been
totally destroyed by the Fly before the radishes made
their appearance.

At Maldon Fair, in Essex, there were large chews
of sheep, and lean cattle.; the former sold freely, and
at high prices, but the latter were dull of sale, par-
ticularly the prime South Wales bullocks, and Irish
oxen.

The Paper that is so often malevolently carping '
at KEMBLE, seems disposed to extend its pitiful
spite towards his whole family. Hence it has in-
ser:ed a story importing that Mrs. SSDDONS re-
quested the PRIME SER JEANT of Ireland to post-
pone the Cork Assizes, lest they should interfere
with her theatrical performances. Rancour is on
this occasion defeated by the improb..bility of its
dull devices.

The Captain of a Vessel from Surinam, who late-
ly appeared before the Loao MAYOR, charged by.
some Negro Sailors with having turned them adrift,
without paying them their wages, must have very
high notions of Liberty, having, as it is stated,
said in his vindication, " that it was a suffc;e7zt
compeNsation to them, to set them free in this Coun-
try," though without the means of subsistence, and
without paying them their wages.
On Saturday the.4th inst. a Foot Race was run
on Knutsford Race Course, between young Lci_
cester, a Butcher in Knutsford (aged twenty years),
against Poole, a Shoemaksr of the sane place, 1 20
yards, which was won by the former with great (lit'.
fica!ty. Even betting. The winner performed- it
in 14.1- seconds.

In consequence of the above being so strongly
contested, another Match was' made' by the two
Competitors, to run the same ground anti distance
on Monday the 6th instant, which was won by
young Leicester, beating his antagonist about one
yard. Five to four on the winner, who performed
it in 14 seconds.

After the last Race, young Leicester ga e%al-
lenge to,, run any man on the ground i6o yards,
which was accepted by Dooley, a Glazier in Knuts-
ford, to run on: the following day on Knutstord
Heath ; which was won by the latter, beating his
antagonist nearly three yards. Three Co one on
Dooley, .who performed it in t 8 seconds. Many
Considerable sums • were depending on all the
three Matches.

Young Leicester is matched to run again on Knots.
ford iiearh, on Monday the zoth inst. against Lee-
thor, ,ColtOrl.,*eAirr, t6o yards ; to start ac
Oiclnek in the afternoOn.—Even herring.
Extraordinary Cas...!, as well as caution to youth,
who imnruderiely trifle with fire-arms.—As two
boys, about eleven years of age, cousins, sons of
Mr. RICHARD' MI LNE R and Mr. JoHN LAM..

and lodged its contents in his comortion's body, a
little below the navel. Surgical assigance was im-
mediately procured, but for some tittle no hopes
were ,;11 terra ined of his recovery. T:t± bowers were
in sight, and near forty pebbles were at various
tines extra6ted. The, wound, however, at length
began to digest, and the boy is now out of all dan-
ger, to the no small joy of his parents and friends,
and particularly his distressed cousin.
