DISTRESSING DISCOVERY.—A discovery has
taken place which has disappointed the fond
wishes of two lovers in high life, and totally de-
ranged the hopes and expectations of the family
of one of the parties. A young Nobleman, heir
apparent to a Marquess, was lately ou the eve of
marriage with the. interesting and accomplished
daughter of an English Earl. Every prepara-
tion was made, and the day fixed foe the com-
pletion of their mutual happiness, when a fatal
defect was discovered in the pedigree of the Noble
suitor, which has cheated him of his fondest hopes.
Upon the examination of the family papers, it was
found that his mother, the Marchioness, was not
born in wedlock, and that, at the age of 18; she
was married by license, and not by banns—and,
consequently, that the marriage was illegal, and
the issue of it illegitiatatt. By this fatal mistake
the issue of the present marriage are removed front
the place which they have so long filled, and the
nephew of the Marquess is become the heir pre-
sumptive to his titles and estates.

DEATH BY BOXING.—A severe, but unskilful,
boxing match took place on Monday, in a field at
the back of the Chequers public-house, nt Bas-
kin, near Colnhro,A, when John Ilatctiett, a
sawyer, met his death. The deceased had a
quarrel with a coachman, named Nixon, respect-
ing a female who lived servant in the village, and
they hail agreed to fight it out, leaving their ale
until they returned. After knocking each other
about fur an hour and twenty minutes, each round
ending with a levelling blow or fall, Ilatchetes
second was unable to get him off the ground.
Ile had fallen heavily on the left temple, and he
eras dead before he could be got into the house,
from the rupture of a blood vessel, as it after-
wards turned out.

This morning we received a series of The
Jamaica Royal Gazette to the 23d May. The last
Paper contains the account of the recapture of
Porto Bello by the Spargish Royalits, and of the
disgraceful flight of M‘GazGoa,which we have al-
ready published, and gives also the following fur-
ther particulars, together with the subjoindd para-
graph respecting Lord COCHRANB

" Five women, whose husbands were either
killed or taken prisoners at the recapture of Porto
Bello, and three children, who were brought here
(Kingston) in theConOance, were sent on Thurs-
day to the Public Hospital of this city ; one of
them was wounded •in the neck by a musket-ball;
another is the wife of a printer, of the name of
Cox, whom Sir GREGOR brought with him from
England, with a few printing materials, and who
was wounded in his apartment, made prisoner,
and marched to Panama : his wife and the
other women were marched out of the town
along with the soldiery, but, after proceeding a
few miles, they became fatigued, and sat down
on the road-side, refusing to proce,ed further,
upon which it was deemed expedient to send
them back to the town, and they were permitted
to depart in the Coufiance. This person, who is
intelligent, states, that ou hearing some firing on

further violence, and made her husband prisoner°
but shewed no incivility whatever to barite'
She farther represents that the English treqi
had been in a state of insubordination, border
on mutiny, for many days previous to the tr
capture,- from the numerous disappointmellig
with which they had met, having been alln°:
starved from the moment` they embarked.°
England ; that many 'of the Officers had Area
sent in their commissions to IlliGazoox,exPretill;

it was pretty generally surmised among then)/ t,i'r
some days before.the attack, that MlGaeooa

stated that he had obtained end. packed up Kier°
boxes of Money, which he bad sent on. board the

Hero. This perhaps accounts for the celerity - a
his retreat on that memorable occasion !
" On the 28th February, four frigates, supra'
to be under" the command of Lord CocliaaSSl
made an attack upon Callao, the sea-port of Lin)"
but were repulsed with great' loss. Subseque:sl
informations, however, communicate accounts

who was on board the frigate Isabella, which Is
been taken by the Independents from the RoYali°t°
some time since. In Callao were forty-five nytl:
tral vessels, and it is supposed that the Dad"'
frigate Amphion, Commodore J3owLes, vras al°

We have the satisfaction of informing eve?
Friend to the Country, that A BILL OF Iriptcrss"ll
for SEDITION has been found at the CHSSOIII.
SESSIONS, against Sir CHARLeS tVOLSELay,anii lb.
Rev. JoSF,PIE HARRISON, for the Speeches 'le'
livered by them at the late Stockport Meeting. W.
heartily rejoice at this instance of the firm -
termination on the part of the Magistrates of tit
County, and ardently hope that their laudsblB
example will be resolutely followed wherever SIP'
DITION may rear its audacious head; and if the
gistracy of the City of London have not power se°
ficient to prevent the ensuing rebellious risevi4
from taking place at the time appointed, that MI
will firmly maintain the peace of the Metropoli."
and be fully prepared to take into custody wboeve_re
may attempt to violate it, for the purpose u.
bringing upon us all the horrors of Revoluti°
and Anarchy.

The American Chamber of Commerce at Li/gr.
pool having applied to the Lords Commissioner'
of his Majesty's Treasury, that the Angriest'
ships, now at Liverpool, may be allowed to cirri
out one passenger for every 5 tons burthen of tb°
ship; and that the number of passengers may St't
be restricted to one for every 5 tons remaininl
unladen, as directed under a late construction ft_i
the Acts of Parliament to that effect, cotninunicst'
to you in the letter of this. Board of the 6th 101
last ;--and my Lords having had under their e°S4
bideration the Act of 43 Geo. 111. cap. 156., obi
serve, that in the first section thereof it is prop'
vided, that no British ship shall be alloyed te
carry more than one passenger for every two tolls
of that part of the ship remaining unladen, ill'
chiding the crew ; and that the Ilth section of the,
Act provides, that masters of foreign vessels shots
not have on board more than one person for evert
5 tons burthen, including the crew. As ibis
Clause refers to the whole burthen or tonnage 04
the ship, and not to the part unladen, my Lod°
are of opinion that the number of passengers t°
be carried by foreign ships should be regulated''
as they understand to have beets the practice/
hitherto, by the number of tons, and not with
reference to the tonnage of the wares and o°4l
with which the ship may be laden ; and tbab 1 1
the 'whole number of passengers, including thgl
crew, do not exceed one per 5 tons, that the sa°3o
may be lawfully conveyed, under the conditi°°6
of the Act 43, Gto. 111. cap. 56, in foreign 514"
and under the direction of the 56th Geo. 111. CAP
114, in British ships also.
