.Lieutenant. General TAR t. ETON this day reviewed
the whOle of the Garrison, Regulars and Yeomanry,
in the Maidyke.field. After the Review, the Ge.
neral attended the Magistrates of the Southern.
Distrids' of this County, who met him by appoint.
Ment at the Grand Jury Room. He addressed
theM in a short, but animated speech, in which he
pointed
.out the responsibility which he expelled
from them ; that each Magistrate should watch
over the Distrid in which he resided, and should
make constant communications to him of every
occurrence that might tend to disturb the quiet of
the Country ;
.that he would himself visit each
particular Distiid ; and that he would take care
that no part should be without the means of sup.
porting the loyal and just inhabitants, against those
who might be disposed to as differently. General
TAR LFTON dwelt, particularly on the probable in.
vasion of this Country,..as through it England would
be more assailable than by a dired attack : that the
'destrudion of this United Empire, was
,the -ardent
:desire of the headstrong tyrant who now wielded, the
deitinies of France;, that there was a vast extent of
coast under the observation of the Oentletnen pre.
sent,. whose MI), it was to communicate to him
-every thing whiCh Could. tend to the preservation of
the tranquillity of the Country.

A desperate affirm was fought tin the 17th ult..

.La Pri.trille French Corvette, The two Ships met
in lat. 49, x x.. long. W. The Privateer,
finding the enemy .of superior. force, endeavoured
to get away ; but seeing it was impossible, prepared
for adion.. The engagement lasted an .hour and a
half, when the True Blue. was cotniielled to strike,:
but not until the Captain, two Officers, and ,even
men were wounded, and the, main_mast hid been
sent over • the 'side. ,The,Capiain of tin. Pripi/A,
Was so impressed-with-the gall :141v( resi,tancp.rof
the Privateer's crew, thht..he made Allem ~a,pcepent•
of the vessel, after throwing ovcrtNio,,Pg,guns
and small arms. '

We yesterday mentioned a Combination having
.been entered into among the Coal.lwavers : a dent)_
cation of six' was brought• last night before Mr.
i3O. ND, Sir W. PARSONS, and Mr. HUNTTA, - in
Bow.street, in order that the differences might be
satisfaelorily adjusted,.'
Leonard Philips, Clerk to Messrs. Wood, said,
dipt since January last, the filling and sacking a chat.
dion of coals hid been paid for at the rate of 9d. per
gang, which consists of three men; that for six or
seven years previous to that period it was only 7{d.
and before ttiat, so long as he could remember, no
• more than 6d. ; that on Monday morning the men
then present, although engaged by the piece, which
they had left incomplete, refused to work unless
they were paid at the rate acme shilling per chal.
dsper gang; being an advance of threepence.

On the part of the Coalheavers, one of their
,brethren, named Nichols, recapitulated, the increas.
ed labour they underwent, and suggested that they
were consequently entitled to a proportionate ad.
~van.ce of wages.
Mr. BOND explained to the men, that however
they might conceive themselves aggrieved, their
attempt at' redress was illegal, and merited severe
r• punishment ; as; instead of presenting a respeelful me-
morial to the Gentlemen employed them, they
had endeavoured to iffeel their purpose by-menace,
aukthat,:therefore, though ever averse to punish
the industrious labourer, it was his duty., to enforce
the At against combinations,. by committing them
to prison, unless they could find Bail to appeal.
,The men, sensible of their error,. agreed to return
to their work ; and we understand a meeting-of the
principal Coal Merchants was last itigh-vdrekl,t,in
order to determine' upon the propriety
'die men an advance, in considerationlof, their addl_
tional exertions. • •
