PRIME V. FOREST.

This was an action against the defendant, the
master of the Eliza merelialit ship, of London, to
recover 351. penalty on the Pilot Act, for refusing
to take a Pilot on board, off Dungeness.
W. Smith, a pilot, stated, that the vessel of
which the defendant was master, appeared off
Dungeness %vithonr. the usual signal flying for
pilot, which, by law, she ought to have. He,
being on hoard his pilot-boat, made up to her, and
impiired if he had a pilot on board to which lie
answered 'no, nor he wanted none and refnsed
to lay-to. rei:ness, however, continued to
follow him, they got to the westward of Do-
ver, and' there the defendant took him on. board,
and he piloted hirn into the Downs. lie, boa ever,
refused to pay ipt any. wore pilotage than from the
place *here the pilot got on board. The defence
set up was, that it blew a gale of wind, and
that the vesst I could not briag•to, and was its
danger of being blown over to the coast of n once.
This, however, the pilot denied; and it was agreed,
that a verdict should be taken for one penalty
unly.—Verdiet fur the plaintiff..

UoVerittlent seem to favour the most, be-
cause it conceives it to be the most powerfnl,and
consequently wishes to support itself on its.inte-
rcst. This is the pally Which, knowing always
how toflei;onimodate itself to circumstances, has,
for theWt 93 years. Occupied all the places under
the Republic, the Directory, and Buonaparte; it
imailines, that, except in its pale, there cannot
exist talent; and which, to prove this assertion,
boAsts of all the victories and vast conquests
which have been gained under its administration,
and which ultimately led to the definitive Treaty
of 1515 ! ! This party is composed of almost
Al the agents of the present Government, who
hold all their offices from Boonapare, and
anxiously expect his return ; it also includes the
purchasers of national domains ; monied men of
the army, who were ultimately dismissed on the
Banks of Loire ; and all thOse who fear to lose
the places they enjoy ; it takes in a filth of the
population of France; Paris supplies it with great
numbers ; this party hates the Allies ; seeks to
sow dissension amongst them ; and to stir re-
volts in their States. It openly avows, as neces-
sary for its existence, the continuation of war
witl►out the kingdom, and illegitimacy of the
Throne within it.

" ' The third party is named the Orleans fac-
tion ; it is inconsiderable; but may be increased
with ease by the great number of adventurers
with whom France abounds, and also by the in-
dividuals who only wish the illegitimacy of the
throne, tvithont being acquainted with the secret
views of the chiefs. Their object is to make use
of the name of a prince, whose errors, mid the
courage which he showed in the commencenient
of the Revolution, may second their ambitious
views; but who cannot be ignorant, that such
views would only prep4re for him thu fate which
betel his ambitious father. It most not be for-
gotten; that it was this last party, which, by sow-
ing the seeds of revolt all over the world, pre-
pared beforehand the surprising b'it short-lived
triumphs of the French alms.'

AMERICAN PAPERS.

CHARLESTON, FEB. 1 I.—We learn from Havan-
nab, that a Spanish fleet of two frigates, and six
or eight smaller vessels, had arrived there from
Vera Critz, but nothing had transpired of their
operations in that quarter,- from which it was in-
ferred that no event favourable to the Royal cause
had lately taken place. The British frigate Ac-
tive had just arrived at Ilavannah from .lamaica,
with a demand that the money taken by a Spanish
aime4.oeisel from the crew of the British sloop of
war Tay should be given up. It was understood
that the demand had been refused by the Consu-

lado at Havanna, referring the derision on the
transaction to the two Governments ; bnt the
Captain and Doctor of the Spanish vessel were
both in prison, awaiting trial for their conduct on
the occasion, which is represented to have been

very unwarrantable.
Accounts from. Havannah mention the ioss
of
his Britannic Majesty's ship Bermuda, Captain
Pakenhanr, near Tampico, in the Bay of Mexico.
NouvoLK, VEs. 19.—We learn from an official
source, that the timber for a ship of the line has
been contracted for by the Navy Board, and or-
dered to he delivered at the yard at Gosport, where.
the ship will positively be built. The quest iota as
to the scite of the Navy DepAt remains still un-
decided ; but from this circumstance, in connec-
tion with several others we could name, there re-
mains not the sinallo.t doubt that Gosport will be
the place.

IN coNGTInss, nu. 7.
The following Message of the President of the
United States, received yesterday, was tend and
referred to a Select Committee :

TO THE SENATE AND HOUSE OF .REPRESENTATIVES
oF. THE UNITED STATES.
On comparing the 4th section of the Act of •
Congress passed March 31st, 1814, providing.for
the indemnification of certain claimants of public
lands in the Mississippi territory, with the Ar-
ticles of Agreement nod Cession between the
United States and the States of Georgia, bearing
date April 30, 1802, it appears that the engage-
ments entered into with the claimantis-interfere'
with the rights and interests secured to that State.
I recommend to Congress that provis►on he made
by law for payment to the State ot.Georgia, equal
to the amount of Mississippi Stork which shalt be
paid into the Treasury, until the stipulated stun of
1,250,000 dollars shall be completed.
Feb. 0, it3l7. .1. MADISON.
Another Message, dated 31st January, recom-
mends to the favourable consideration of Con-
gress, the claim of the Representative of the Baron
de Beaumarchais to a million of livres, which
were debited to him at the settlement of his ac•
counts witl► the United States, and which clain
has now been forwarded by the French Govern•
tent to its Minister in America.

The Paris Papers of Monday, which arrived this
morning, are more occupied with the new Tragedy
of Germanicus than with any thing else. We
have taken a few miscellaneous paragraphs from
them,' and have only further to notice, that they
contain nothing of political interest, except a
more particular report of the Indtdio or general
pardon granted by the King of SPAIN, and an
Edict promulgated by the same Monarch on the
2d,, prohibiting certain publications. This pro-
hibition comprehends 55 works.
Letters from Cadiz announce the arrival of a
ship from Lima worth a million of piastres. • 'A

A letter from lUo Janeiro of January 10, says,
that the Government of Buenos Ayres has de-

of the Portuguese, had agreed to suspend their
animosities, and unite their forces to oppose those
whom they esteemed the common enemy : and a
third states, that ARTIGkS had refused to ratify

this agreement, which called upon him to acknow-

not if there be any, or what truth in these

from North Wales; Sir Thomas and Lady Lethbridge, from
Sotobourne House, Hampshire, to Weymouth, on their way
to their scat at Sandkill Park, Soinersetshiru.

TUC- TRPATRE.—Mr. STANLEY resumed the
character of Ranger on Saturday at Drury-Lane
Theatre, and again displayed the same spirit and
gaiety which appeared in' his first performance.—
The part, as we before observed, is more cha-
racterized by vitigtir &to,. set y than by gentlemanly
humour, and little more than intrepid spirit is ne-
cessary iu supporting it. The House- was well
attended, and the rest of the characters were re-
presented as before, and in such a manner as to
satisfy the audience in general.
Miss O'NEILL is to perform three nights at
Bristol. previous to her return to Covent-Garden
Theatre„where she is to make her first appearance
as the gentle Juliet. On this occasion the admission
to the Boxes is to be•raised one shilling.

Mr. FREELING has returned to town, and re-
sumed his station at the Gent ral Post-Office.

Origin of the Word LADY ..—Grave iiissertat ions
upon words are no better than pompous inanity; I
shall therefore be brief " as woman's love.''--The
term Lady (which JOHNSON negiigentiy derives
from the Saxon) ..was sometimes besfilwed, on
women of fortune, even before their husbands had
received any title which could confer that distinc-
tio upon them.. The cause 1 apprehend to have
been this : It was formerly the custom, and a cus-
tom more " honourable in the observance than the
breach," for those whom fortune had blessed with
affluence to live constantly at their manor houses
in the country, where, once a week or oftener,
the Lady of the manor used to. distribute with her
own hands a certain quantity of bread. She was
hence denominated by those who shared her
bounty, lef-day, which, in Saxon, signifies the
bread giver. A gradual corruption in the mode of
pronouncing this word bus produced the modern
Lady ; and perhaps from this hospitable custom
arose Abe practice universally existing, that ladies
serve the-meat at their own tables.

The resolution of the Theatrical Managers to
abstain from puffing off their Performances at the
foot of their play-bills has given universal satis-
faction.; and the example might very safely be
followed by- the Lottery Contractor ; for it is a
fact, that there never was a Scheme which, like
the present, offered such inducements to the Pub-
lic, or one which required so little puffing.

POETRY,

THE RED KITTFN.•
0 the rcd red Kitten is sent away,
isT,c, more on parlour hearth to play;
He must live in the Draper's house,
And chace the rat and catch the mouse,
And all day long in silence go
Thro' bales of cotton and calico.

After the King of England famed,
The red red Kitten Was Rurus named,
And as King Rurus sported through
Thicket and brake of the Forest new',
The red red Kitten Rurus so
Shall jurop about the calico.

But as King RUFUS chaced the deer;
And hunted the forest far and near,
Until as he watched the jumpy squirrel,
He was Shot by WALTER TYRREI,
So, if Fate shall his death ordain,
Shall Kitten Runrs by dugs be slain,
And end his thrice three lives of woe
Among the cotton and calico.

a A red Kitten was sent to the house of a Linen-draper in
the Cityi and, on departing from the maternal basket, the
above lines were written.

VIENNA, SEPT. 13.—We have received an offi-

purportieg that thirty privateers, beating the flag
of. the Insurrectional Government of Buenos
Ayres, had sailed for Cayes_ (St. Domingo) at the
end of Jiily, to infest the European seas. This
intelligence has been confirmed by an official com-
munication made by Mr. Alen, the Consul of the
United States of America at Trieste, to all the
other Consuls resident in that city.
Private letters received at Trieste state, that
there is no longer any security in the American
seas, aml that this circumstance necessarily in-
fluences the pi ice at Colonial produce, which is

the articles which are indispensible. The trans-

A JAMES ATKINSON offers the above Reward to any one
who will give him such information as may lead to the, detec-
tion..ot the Offenders who have counterfeited his Articles.—
In regard to the rucri•s of the genuine ones, he presumes they
are too generally adopted to require eulogium he will there-
fore only add, that the following virtues of iespectire Ar-
ticles may be relied on :

ATKINSON'S VEGETABLE DYE
is perfectly innocent, and immediately changes Grey sor Bed
Hair on the Head or Whiskers to Brown or Black, so per-
manent that washing; &c, which affects other Dyes, only
render this more durable.

ATKINSON'S CURLING FLUID
restores the Hair where it has fallen off, from illness, per-
spiration, change of climate, or any of those causes which
occasion premature decay. It also frees the Hair from Scurf,
makes it soft and glossy as silk, and keeps it in curl during
exercise in the dance or promenade, or in damp weather.

ATKINSON'S AMBROSIAL SOAP
entirely divested of Alkali, by a new ~process, ►'emoves
freckles, rednes, and hardness from the Skin, prevents i►s

MONTHLY REPORT FOR NOVEMBER.

Wheat-sowing in the southern counties, and upon
warm soils, will continue through great part nt
the next month ; in the northern counties, it has-
been chiefly finished in the present-, excepting up.
on some impoverished farms, which did not pro-
duce corn good enough for seed, and where mo-
ney was wanting for its purchase. The scarcity.
of wheat fit for seed, from, the badness of last .
year's crop; has greatly contributed to keep up the
market price.. The
.seed-season, too dry in the
commencement, has been, for the greater part, the
finest possible. Of this, the improving districts
in the North-west have, in:the present year, made
the most expeditions use, sowing with wheat,
their bean, potatoe, and turnip grounds ; the tur-
nips being drawn and stored. Their harvest has
been well secured, as has been fortunately the case'
in most parts, when not too early begun, except.'
ing in the most exposed northern situations,
where oats were still standing and green, in the
middle of this month, and' which must be cut in
that state. •

It is not, perhaps, generally known, that' on
FRIDAY NEXT, tile Second Day of Drawing!,
Every Ticket will be a Prize. This is no illusory
benefit; as more than Six Thousand Tickets will be
drawn that day.—No Prize above 2001. having
been decided by the 'First Day's Drawing, the
SIX Grand Capitals of 20,0001. yt..t remain in the
Wheel, to be disposed of, probably, between this
and Friday next.
