.PRIPA7'E CORRESPONDENCE.

'llAdtrE, Sr;,-r. 23.

'We have not rerndiuin in our Republiz abore
nine thonsann French Troops, and three timis2nd
Batavian Soldiers, but we are in daily expeLlation
pf six thousand French Conscripts, WilDlll we are to
clothe and equip.. In the mean time we are here in
high spirits, in hopes that our Russian and English
,Enerpies will deliver us from the fraternity of our
French Friends.

Rumours are daily cireulated, 4nd give a great
uneasiness to our Quvernment, that we are to be
attacked on the German 'side by Ilussia, and on the
Sea side by 'England. It was yesterday reported
that a Russian Army had disembarked near Cux-
haven, and that numerous English Transports and
Men of War were descried at the Helder. Every
thing 'was. in consequence in agitation here, and
Orange-coloured ribbands made their appearance in
the windows of several milliners, who, together with
four disseminators of false reports; Ai erc arrested.
From these trifling occurrences you may judge of
the public spirit in this Country, and how much we
desire to be liberated from our present ruinous and*
degrading situation.' Even on board our Fleet in
the Texel a kind of mutinous spirit has been mani-
fested in consequence of these. rumours ; and some
,French Soldiers are now doing the duty of Marines
in every Ship to keep the Crews in order and subor-
dination.

I have just heard, from an authority upon which
can depend, that the Cabinet of Austria, in answer
to the demand of the Swiss Deputies concerning the
Neutrality of the Helvetian Republic, declared,
" ,That, notwithstanding what had past, the instant
France evacuated Holland,
,as 'well as Switzerland,
and respected the iadq;endence of these two States,
Austria would consider and respect them both as
'Neutrals." When BosAPARTE was informed of this
answer, he ordered immediately ten thousand Ore-
nadiers, under General OUDINOT, to occupy the de-
files in the small Cantons. We expal every day to
hear whether the Austrians have not been before-
hand.

Both Here and 'in France, Italy and Spain, we
are in great distress' for money ; and, should affairs
long continue ,as they, are at present, we fear a ge-
neral bankruptcy. •

LAY REPORT.

COURT OTKING's BENCH, Stcrunn.t.yduLy 20.

WINUFIELD V. LAKE.
The Plainti4f is a Pilet, the Defendant is a Ship-
owner. Thii-a6tion was brought fOr a remuneration
iii t4e nature of salvage, for rescuing tilt, -brig Anne
from imminent danger on the coast of StIS3CX. The
Defendant had paid 101. into Court.

James Stretton, one of the men on board, said,
that the vessel ,struck the ground three times. She
was saved under the oraers of the Plaintiff, who di.
reaed the sails' to be spread, which threw the Anne
upon her beam ,ends and a heavy sea bearing upon
her at that moment gave her a lift, and bore her
off, the cable bping.cut away at the instant. The
Plaintiff remained on board all the llessid night in
his wet clothes.

Sever.'l other Witnesses were called to depose to
the circumstances,. and particularly to the value of
the ship and cargo.
The Jury 3ignifying they were satisfied, the SOLI,
CITOR-GENSRM. was4not required to reply. •
Lord ELLIINBOROUGII said, Le thought from the
first the compensation Was sufficient. " There ought
to be a libenti allowance made i'vhere there is per-
sonal danger, but the sort of tax upon the commerce
of the Country here attempted to be imposed is
unreasonably."

•
R. SCIINL WER V. .1, STEP/TENS AND EtTTLER.
The Plaintiff is an tj,nderwriter, the Defendants
are Merchants at.Liverponl. This cause arose out of
the settlements of the poiicies on the Mary Stephens;
and omi/strew.

The .Witnesses not being able to depose to the do-
Curnen4 produce'd at the timc ofrthe .adjUstment of
the loss, the Plaintiffwas uousuited..
On account of that deficiency in the evidence, se-.
verai other Causes depending on the iante fa& were

vidual case was under discussion- in Leland,
he thought it would have been prejudging the case
to have hrooghtio this hat now that that 6the
hid been determined, he thought it was the proper
time to introduce a law for preventing the hardships
which might result from the literal construaion of
the At '1:4: remedy which he should .preipose,
would apply equally to England, Scotland, and Ire-
land : it Was to allow the Magistrate, who shall
indorse the Warrant sent from another part of the
UoitedlCingdom, to take, in haihble cases, such
bail as would have been aci:epted in the country
where the Watrant was issued.

Mr. SHAW LEFEVItiIt objeded totally to the
principle of the Bill, as a precedent which might de.
grade the Magistiacy of the Country. Ile moved,
that the third reading should be postponed to this
day three months.
Mr. I TugsT and Sir ROBERT PuRLE, considered
the Bill absolutely necessary for such a manufadur.
ing distrid'as that of Manchester, where a very at.

Sir Roe oRT I3UXTIN acquiesced, on the ground of
its local. necessity, although he could nut agree to

Mr. Wien:it-tam made same general observations.
The CIiANCELL9R of the EXCHEQUER
concluded the ,calivetsation by ollserving, that the
necessity of the Bill was not only evident from the
testimony of the Gentlemen best acquainted with
that part of the Country ;
‘but from the circumstance
of the Petition being signed by all the Magistrates,
and by the Petitioners being willing to take upon

LONDON,
THURSDAY, JULY 25, 1805.

, WE this morning received a Letter from our Cor-
respondent at Portstruuth, stating, that the Stauneh
Gun-brig had arrived there from Jamaica, and that
she had brought intelligence of the Combined Fleet
having returned to Martinico, where they were Bleck-
aded by Lord Nt.Lsorr. A reference to the dates
will immediately prove that this statement cannot
be corred, because it is said,, that the Staunch saw
the Combined Fleet off Martinico on the 17th
tilt. going into Fort Royal, and we know that they
were seen on the loth, by the Curieux, steering
a north-cast course, and they were then at a very
great distance from Martinique. We have only to
observe in addition, that no intelligence has yet
reached the Admiralty, and therefore we do not
think the report entitled to any credit.

We have received ilaterican Papers to tile,
ult. , and have extra&cd those. articles from them
which relate to the Combined Fleet.

AN unlucky' accident bappezed at this place yes-
terday, which might have been productive: of great
calamity, but happily no lives were lost.. The cut
from Ilia&wall to Liinehouser intended- to carry
Vessels direEtly through, without going round by
Greenwich, had been nearly finished; 11'rld was to
have been opened with great pomp on-the 12th 9f
August next.--Yesterday forenoon, about twelve
o'clock, being near high tide, while a number cf
people were at work •at the extremity next the
River, they were suddenly alarmed by a hissing
noise, and the appearance of water entering from
below.
,Scarcely had they time to make a prec-ipi•--
tate retreat, when, the' outward' darn burst with.
14tonishing violence, and what a minute before was
dry land, was instantly coveged with twelve feet of
water: the second dam, about 130. yards farther on,
composed of logs of wooti twelve *hes thick, be-
side a strong diagonal log, by way of bar, was in like
manner foreed by the Current ; and this amazing
strong bar snapped in two as-if it had been a piece
of lath. The Canal was immediately filled, as far
as the second floodgate next to Limehouse, which
being sfiut, happily resisted the force of ;.11e current,
Considerable injury has been done to the banking
and mason-work at the extremity, as well as at=tire
first lock, great part of the ahuttnents on each side
having been carried away,

ROBERT BLAKEY V. W. CHURCHILL, ESQ.

The Plaintiff is an archite6t, the Defendant is the
husband of the Countess of Straffbrd,.and this aftion
was brought for business done by the Plaintiff in the
way of his profession, prior to the intermarriage of
her Lad; ship with the Defendant.
Mr. tiARROW, for his Client, said, that •Mr.
Blakey had been employed in constructor;
nv' a coach-
house, at the expence of 5361.; of an ice-house, at
the 'charge of 401. ; and various other works, the
*hole amounting to 6521:: 6171. I ts. Bd. had been
paid to
.him, and this Aaiun was brought for the ba-
lance, which was the regular charge for conveyance,
f•oin London to Wiltshire, and other Counties; where
tilt! business had been concluded. This change,' he
understood,' was to be objeCled to, and the Plaintiff
had notice, not from the Countess ofStrafford; but
from another party, that if he -should make his ap-
pearance on the premises, to assert this demand
again, he would be ducked in the horse-pond: He
preferring the dry pavement of Westminster-hall,
to the 'threatened immersion, had brought this Ac-
tion, and looked for justice at the hands of a Bri-
tish J ury.

The gOLICLTOR-GENERAL, on the part of the De-
fendant, signifying that: the detail of accounts in
this Cause was a tit subjea for reference, it was as-
sented to,by the Plaintiff ) and Mr. 8URR,01.70.11, the
Barrister, was appointed Arbitrator.

11 NEW HISTORY OP INC;LAND.

The following Literary Notice appeared in the
last MONTHLY AfiGAZINE ; and it announces the
design cAf a new and valuable Work-, which cannot
be viowed by the intelligent part of the, Public
without considerable interest :

'William Godwin, Author of the •" Life of
Geotfroy Chaucer," the first. English Poet, and t)f
other Works, wishes to-0%0 this public notice, that
he has undertaken-to compile a Work, to bt: en-
-titled " i story of E gland, from the earliest
Records ,of Events in this Island to the Revolution
'in 088 ;" 'to be written on a scale not smaller than
that'of thf! History of England, during the same pe-
riod, by atitnr.l. lie, theNfuro, invites all persons
Who, may pilssass' rare !looks, Manuscripts, or Do-
cuments of iny kind,,c-alculated to illustrate,the Au-
Inds of this Country, to favour hiln with the inspec
n
tio:mil Use of them. He pledges himself to a just
and punaual condat respeCting the Articles which
may be entrusted to hirn, and will thankfully ac-
knowledge the facilities which may be afforded to
his pursuit. He would not have undertaken such a
Work were he not animated with the ardent hope,
by study and diligence, to throw new light upon our
Annals; and it will be' the first objet of his vigi-
lance to divest himself of such partialities and pre-
possessions as might lead him in any degree to dis-
tort or misrepresent any. transaCtion or character of
which he shall have occasion to treat. Communi-
cations may be addressed to' the care of Mr. Rion.

A melancholy circumstance took place on 'Ales.
day se'nnigbt, at Dublin. A Mr. M'Entire, of
James's-street, and his wife, after spending the even-
ing in company with a few friends and relatives,
with apparent health and jocularity, retired to bed;
-and on the ensuing morning, Mr. M'Entire having
urged his wife to get up, finding, the had exceeded
the usual hour, and receiving from her no reply,
arose, and opened the window-shutters, \Vika,
shocking to relate, the light ushered to his view
her lifeless body. She had expired during tint
night, without agony or a g-r•oan.
London, England, 1805-05-21

Alhort conversation took 'place no the Resolu.
tints respecting the Stamp on BAnkers' Checks in
Iteland, Mr. FOSTE a explained that it was not
his intent tun to lay a. Tax upon Bankers' Checks ;.
he merely meant to prevent a prattice which pre.
vitiled in Ireland, and which was injurious to the
Revenue ; The nraaice to which he alluded was,
that of making Brokers' Checksfor small sums ne-
gotiable in.truments, like Bills- of Exchange. If
they were aCtually Bills of Exchange they certainly
would be liable to the stamp duty, and his only
nbjel was to prevent this fraud in the Revenue, by
imposing a stamp duty upon Checks under the value
of el; if drawn by a person residing within ten
miles of the Banker, and if the Cheek.v.'as nut pre.
sented for payment within two days.
A short conversation likewise took place on the
Resolution 'for enabling His M ijesty to increase the
number of Commissioners of Excise in Ireland from
,five to seven. Mr. Fo.iTy. a stated, that the business of
the Cornmissioners of Excise in Ireland had of late
increased so much that it would be necessary to in.
crease their number ; and in addition to their other
duty it was proposed that they sh,,,ta now sit on
the trial of Revenue Cantles- instead of the Sub.
Commissionrrs. After a few words from Sir JotsN
N9WPORT, who approVed of the regulation, Mr.
FITZQI RAU), and Mr. 04MS11Y, Of Resolution
was agreest to.
Bills Were ordered to be brought in upon all the
Resolutions,
. Mr. ALEXANDER brntight up the Report of the
Committee tan the Bill for encouraging the con.
sumptiun of Beer in Itelind. S,veral Amendments
were introduced, and the Bill tvvs ordered to be read
,a third time on Wednesday.
Mr. Fang R brought in a Bill for the better R.
gelation of Duties on Irish Malt ; which was read
a first time, told ordered to be printed, and read a
second time on Thursday.
The" Irish Distillery Bill was read a sec3nd
time, and ordered to be et:mu:titled to-morrow.—

gliineas, the v,?loe of a' horse delivered by t e
tiff to the Defttnltir.

It appeared the Plaintiff had agreed
.to let the
Defendant have a horse for thirty guineas, and to
give hint a month's trial. The horbe was accord,
ingly sent, and, in about ten days aftr, the De-
fendant ,Jtold the Plaintiff, that he liked his horse
very well, hut he did not like the price. The
Plaintiff then said, ,he would not take less -than
thirty guineas for ir, and desired him to send it
home if 1. would not give that sitm. In eight or ten
days after the !horse was sent home, and was ;muse.
diately sent back again, the Plaintiff considering
the Defendant hail pgreed to give the thirty guinea
for it by his keeping i't so long after he told :tim
that was the lowest price. He !therefore brought
his anion; and obtained a verdict.
