On Monday morning died, at her apartments in
Mortimer-street,. Cavendlsli-square, Mrs. HOLMAN,
wife of -Mr.. HOLMAN,- a Gentleman whose theatri-
cal- abilities . are well known to the pubic.--Mrs.
HOLMAN was the daughter of the Hon. and Rev.
FREDERICK HAMILTON,' and was related to several
distinguished families in this country. ilk Lady
possessed talents, attainments, and moral qnalities,
that would have done honour to any rank and.sta-
firm: She Was well acquainted
,with Frew"),
and Italian literature. She Possessed literary. »bat-
ties herself of .no ordinary cast, and many produc-
tions of her pen would have done lionour to her cha-
raeler,* if her delicacy would have
.permitted . her to
avow them • She. was-distinguished for -her skill in
-music, and sung with great taste and expression.—
Her manners were uniformly mashed by a refine-
ment and elegance, not more the etfeel of she so-
ciety to which she was intitled-by her birth, talents,
and acquirements, than of the natural benir'olty of
her temper, whir!) charatleriSed her condua through
life. She was indeed truly estimable and an orna.
.ment to her sex, and is- deeply regretted by a nu-
merous train of trien(!s.

Curtin:la papers t;)- the 28th ult. are in -town.
-The only artMe in them is,- that a party of 7 U suing-
•glers fell in with a corps of 700 French who had
surrounded them-: the smugglers were determined
not to surrender, and after an obstinate_contlict; cut
their their way through the French .(this happened
near 'Badozet), after killing and Wounding forty
Frenchmen.

We understand that it is-intended 46' send-large
reinforcements to Portugal, and that drafts froin the
,diffetert regiments in this country will be imme-
diately made.
Most-of the private letters received from our
countrymen in France, .by the last cartel, speak of
the ardent desire expressed by the people of that
country for the restoration of peace. The,sittiation
of the English prisoners have been for sometime
greatly ameliorated; their confinement is' now by
no • means rigorous, and extra allowances of pro-
visions have been granted; Such of the women
and children as are able, are permitted to work, and
provisions of all kinds being plentiful and cheap,
they are -enabled to live tolerably. well, and to ren-
der- the captivity of their husbands :less irksome.
The prisoners who last came over experienced the
most marked kindnesss trona the inhabitants of the
places through which they passed, many Of whoth
would continually shake them by the band, cun.
gratulate ;hem on their return home, and express
the fervent wishes for the return of peace.
A letter from Gibraltar received by the last
bon packet, contains 'a postcript, which states that
a regiment of cavalry had lately reached that garri-
son trcim-Algesiras. About one-half of the privates
were women, habited as 'men, who had recourse
to this stratagem, the more securely to etreft
their escape fiorn the enemy in that neighbour-
hood.

The French Decree respecting the Press enacts,
that no work shall be printed without the fl pp ro -
tion.of a ,Director-General;. a;tpointed by the Go-
vernment, and that if anywork, containing any thing
against the Government, he printed, the copies are
to be destroyed, the forrns.broke, &c. The Frznch
Newspapers are under a more humiliafitz restraint
than any other Publication, inasmuch 'as they are
compelled to undergo the revision of the Police
instead .of: being referred to the Director-General of
the Press, and so rigoious is the contruuLexercised,
that Os stated by a Gentleman lately arrived fi-om
Paris) the Journal des Debatsi generally: considered a
fav,,ured Paper, having fallen into some mistakts in
the details of the ceremonial attending Berthier's
proceedings at Vienna, upon the recent marriage,
the whole article was taken out of the form, and
broke up, and the publication, which should have
taken place at.an early hour in the morning, was
delayed till' late in the afternoon, for the substitu-
tion of other tuatfer in-the room of that containing
the particulars objected to.
Yesterday morning were executed, in the ad
Bailey,: K. Jones, alias Cooling, for torg.,,ry ; Ana
Melinda Mapson, alias Mintar, for. burglary e
man , appeared a . wretched squallid figure, in -the
dress of- a sailor, stupidly insetis:ble to the horror of
his, situation.; while the wo,nan was shook almost
to premature • dissolution by hertelings. A very
great COM:MN& Ocidle spetaalors attended.
