HICKMAN'S PILLS for the GRAVEL and

distressing complaint the Stone and Gravel, in all its various

MONDOr, MARCH 26, 1810.

We rcct'iveA Dutch Papers to the 22d inst. and
f ;1r Gottenlurgh Mails this day, the contents of
which we have inserted in ow- subsequent columns.

- The Dispatches from Mr. PINCKNEY to the Ame-
rican Government were, we understand, sent from
toWn on Saturday last to the American frigate John
ilflams, Tying at Cowes., They were taken by Lieu-
te.ant ELLIOT cL that ship, which was expected to
sail ye.ster4ay. for -Havre-de-Grace, as Mr. ELLIOT
was to proceed to Paris, in order to obtain the Dis-
Tiatche:3 from General ARMSTRONG. is, however,
by :r0 means improbable that General A unsT4or.4
will,dernand passports, and return himself to Ame-
rica in the John Adams, as the French Government
has recently adopted measures so hostile to the Ame-
r:caw Government that it
.would lose all respect in
the eyes of mankind if it were to. submit to (bear
Private .letters from Paris, harked, dated the t Bih
init. state, that General ARMSTRONG had actually
demanded passports, as the Ftench Government had
issued an order for the seizure and sale of American
vec>sels and property. Intelligence of the same na-
ture,' it is said, has • been received by Mr. PINCK-
NEY and by our Ministers. The conduct of-8u04,4-
ratrs towards America has been so strange, capri-
ciJas, and impolitic, that such an order might na-
(wally' be expected from him; and if so, we trust
that it will dispose the American Government to be
more sensible of the wisdom of being upon good
terms with the only Power that can guard their corn-
tut:Till 'mesas, and enable them to support their-

independence.

The Opposition writers are, day after day, resort-
ing to their old expedient, and attempting to amuse
their readers with accounts of new arrangements
in Administration. ' According to their last state-
ment on this subjeta, Lord WELLESLEY iS IO be
First Lord of the Treasury; Mr. PERCEVA L to be
Chancellor, instead of Lord ELDON, who retires;
Lord iVI,BLviLt.g, First Lord of the Admiralty; and
Mr. CANNING, Secretary of State. To shetv their
inizenuity, however, these Writers are not content
t.ith having made the foregoing arrangement, for
ti)ey have devised another plan, importing that Lord
Lord SIDNIOUTH'S pafty is. to come 'into office, with
'the adui ion of Lord CASTLEREAGH. The Writers,
inecd acknowledge; that the iatter scheme has a
powerful obstacle in its way; for, that Lord WEI,
ESLEY objecls to the introduction of Lord CASTLE..
It EA 'OH, upon the ground that.it t; otald tend to throw
Mr CANNING into the arms of Opposition. By the
.ist scheme Lord CASTLEREAGII was to be First
Lord of the Admiralty. It is needless for us to make
conun6nts upon reports so •contradi&&ory in
themselves, though issuing from the same quarter,
•It is quite surprising that as these Writers are so
much in the habit of forming new, Administrations,
they do not arrive at something like consistency.
Hut they are at least to be commended for having
attained a littletmore discretion, as They have not in
a:ly of their new arrangements had the hardihood to
assert that their own Patrons cre likely to be again
in power.

Yesterday morning his MAJESTY, Princesses Au-
,,nsTA and SOPHIA, accompaniel by Lady MYNNE,

L __l: _

General CARTWRIGHT, and Major PRICE, rode to St.
George's Chapel, Windsor, .and` heard a Serunon
preached by the Rev. Mr. CHAIVPIGNY j they after-
wards returned to the Palace.

The regretted illness of the Princess Am ELIA is'
said to arise from an internal abscess, but the
Physicians still.entertain hopes of etfeding a ,cure, if
her Royal Highness's constitution is not already too
weak for the powerful medicines 'which it is neces-
sary to administer. •

The debate on ,the Scheldt Expedition commences
this day, and is er.;pe6ted not to terminate before Wed-
nesday or Thursday. Lord PORCHESTER opens the
business, and, we understand, will be replied to by
Lord CASTLEREAGH. We shall be careful to give
copious and faithful reports of. -all the principal
speeches on this important subject.
Two ships have arrived from Norway. The pas-
sengers describe the situatidn of the inhabitants of
that inhospitable region, as most deplorable from
the.scarcity of the or.dinary means of subsistence.
From Riga, under the date of the 17th ultimo, we
learn that trade had
.ao.ain acquired considerable
adivity. Hemp was sold at .22 dollars, and the
prices of other Baltic commodities had not
clined, though prices of colonial produce remained
the same,

necrt:ciation for an exchange-of prisoners be-
tween thus country and France, is at present pen&
ing ; and an agent for conducting the • same will
shortly leave this country for a French.port.
A considerable fleet is immediately to assemble at
Yarmouth, supposed to be destined for some enter-
prize of magnitude in the Bal!ic.• The Formidable,
which is to bear the flag of the Commander in Chief,
with the Scipion and I'anguard, on Thursday sailed
,from Plymouth for the place of rendezvous.

A vessel arrived on' Saturday .from Guernsey,
wh!ch brought seveial letters- from the coast of
France, dated as late as the 17th inst. They refer
only to commercial matters, but their contents'are
so far satisfactory, as they shew a, disposition in the
-French Government in some essential articles of
trade to facilitate the intercourse with this country.
Two ships laden with maSsy plate of silver, con-_
sisting principally of images and'church decorations,
are arrived in the River,.from Lisbon, estimated at
the value of a million sterling. The w hole has been
sacrilegiously cut- i❑ pieces, to avoid the heavy im7.
port duty, by being entered as ordinary.bullion.
Hyde Park yesterday, notwithstanding the pierc-
ing coldness of a strong easterly wind, presented a
crowded exhibition of beauty and fashion about
three o'clock.

Mrs. CLARKE was yesterdny surrounded by a
mob in Bond-street, and .treated with some rude.
ile;i3.until she was rescued by several Gentlemen.
The diamond which ornaments the hilt of BOON..
APARTE'S sword is worth 12 millions of francs,
which is three times the value of the celebrated Or-
Jeans diamond: .

The vane of the jewels and nuptial ornaments
which NA PoLcoN has de;litcd for his brides are es-
timated at t 8 millions of francs. . •

Anew 74-gun ship, cared the Armada, was on
Thursday launched at Mr. BLACBKBURN'§ yard, at

Last week an Inquest NirdS held near Worcester,
on the body of the son of Mr. ,Harris, attorney of
that
.city. It appeared that the boy being on his
way to school, after a visit to his
,parents, told the
woman whb accompanied him that he would not go
to school. She entreated him tp.retarp ; but this
he refused to do ; and "whttn they arrived at a place
called the Ketch, he said, " good bye," and rushing
down the steep, plunged into the Severn and was
drowned.—The Coroner's Jury found in their vet-
diet that the-deceased being under the age of discre-
tion (twelve years old) and' not knowing good from
eti if, did, iri the passion of. either grief or .discontent,
cast himself into the Severn, and thereby caused
his death.

A fire broke out yesterday . about i 2 o'clock, in
the dwelling-house of a boot and shoemaker, in
Ogle-court, Qtieen Ann-street East. There was
no alarm of fire given until the flames were per-
ceived to have burst forth out of one of the win-
dows: Fortunately it was• got under in the space
of an hour, but not before the premises were nearly
gutted. The family, and some lodgers (mechanics)
it was'supposed had fled on the first alarm of the
fire, excepeone unfortunate young man; who, from
indisposition, was confined to his bed, The fire-.
men found him nearly dead, and in great torture,
from the injury he bad sustained by the-fire. He
expired in the arms' of•tWo men who supported
him, as they were cvrying him to the Middlesex
Hospital,

The following distressitT‘circumstance recently
took place at Halam, nem- Nottingham :—Mr.
Flewitt, a Gentltnan in the .prime .of life, and in
the possession of a handsome independence, in a
paroxysm of mental derangement, put a period to
his existence in a manner which heightens the hor-
ror such an event is calculated to excite. He had
been engaged in a legal dispute, which was on the
point of being tried, and this c;rcurnstanee seemed
to take an unaccountable hold of his spirits. On
the morning when he committed the fatal act- allud-
ed to, lie awoke under the impulse of terror, ex-
claiming, " they will take me they :will take me !"
He •sprung up from the.side of his astonished wife,
and instantly . wounded himself in the belly with a
sword. • Mrs. Flewitt, acquiring stret•gth from des-
peration, wrested the sword Iron his hands, in doing
which she was herself severely cut. She then flew
to the dressing-table, and swept - off the razors.
Thinking she had secured them all, she proceeded to
the -staircase, shrieking for the servants, to comet()
her assistance. On turning round, she 'beheld her
buSband fall, with his head almost se►ered from his
body. One razor, in her -ht;rry, tad been left,
and with this the maniac completed own de-
struction.

Early on Friday morning, about two o'clock, the
house No. 2, Shepherd-street, Hanover-square, was
feloniously. entered by means of a falie key, and the
apat tments occupied by Major Higgins robbed of a
poi containing several articles of value, wear-
ing apprel, and other articles, to a considerable
anpunt.

' " The world is Widely mistaken in supposing

THE PITT CLUB.--Tlie third •11rieetiing,- of this
Society, for the present season, took place on Thurs-
day last, at the London TaVern. Several Gentle-
men were ballotted for and elected IVlembers.--This
Club is one of the most select in town, and no can-
didate has the least chance of becoming a Member,
who is not well 4nown to be firmly attached to.our
good old Constitution, and its late great Prop, the
excellent Minister, who gives ihe ,narpe to a 'So-
Ciety, founded in honour of his metnisry and his
virtues.
KING'S THEATRE.--The repetition of ,'the new
serious Opera, named Atalide, confinuedit in the
good opinion of the audience on Saturday last. But,
supported by such performers as CATALAN! and TRE-
MAZZANI, each of whom have-abundant scope for
their talents In acting as well as singing, it could hard-
~lp tail of; 'success. The; music is much liked as it
grows more familiar to the ear. There was 4 ge—
nergyoValry between these admirable performett,
and they both received the loud and repeated ap-
plause of a crowded auditory.
