We received yesterday and this morning the
Paris Papers of Thursday and Friday last. The
following are extracts :
PARIS, OCT. 23.--The King yesterday took

au airing to Choisy.
" A letter from Aix-la-Chapelle of the 18th
instant states, that the Duke de Richelieu had on
that day gone to visit an ancient and celebrated
Abbey, rendered remarkable by its situation, three

posts from that city.
" Great preparations are making at the hotel
\Micro', Rue de Bourbon, where it is supposed
the King of Prussia will alight on arriving at

Paris.
The Elections for the department of Seine et
Marne are not yet terminated. M. Manager is
the only Deputy at present elected. After him
M. de St. Cricq is the Candidate who has obtain-
ed the most suffrages.
" At Metz, M. Wendel, President of the Col-
lege, and M. Rolland, Councillor of the Cour
Royale, have been elected Deputies. There re-
mains one Deputy to elect.
A letter from Calais of the 18th inst., states
the arrival there of 10 transports for the embark-
ation of the English troops.
" The Count de Montmorency, Director-Gene-
ral of the ;,lass manufactoty Rue du Faubourg,
Stint Antoine, returning on Wednesday evening
from Montgeron, in his cabriolet, the horse tak-
ing fright the carriage was driven against a tree •
and broken ; the Count was so much hurt that he
died a few hours afterwards.
'' Besides M. Blot de Chauvigny, whose arrest
has already been announced, two other persons are
implicated in the charges against the Baron Ca-
nnel, M. M. de Romilly and de Stingy, namely,
M. M. Lafitte, formerly an employe and Gauffre.
" The Ist and 4th Regiments of the Royal
Guards, in barracks at St. Denis and Conrbevoie,
are making preparations for departure. It is un-
derstood they are to march to-morrow for Lille

articles prohibited from exportation and seve-
ral French vessels employtql in smuggling silks,
brandy, and various articles of French manufac-
ture, froth Martinique and Galatialoupe, into Our
islands. No condemnation of either vessel or
cargo took place, but wherein the case was proved
to have been in manifest, violation of known and
proclaimed laws : one or two, not sit icily of this
description, were with great liberality restored
again to the owners.—Many transactions tend to
shetv that the authority of the mother country
has little influence in Spanish America, even among
those who have been constituted to administer her
'laws: they are more swayed by selfishness and
caprice. The following case is spoken of as a
must shameless instance of this description, and
which must become the subject of sharp remon-
strance with the Spanish Government. The Bri-
tish brig Eclipse, with a Master and 10 men, and
having on board about 5000 dollars, was seized at
4Satnana, in the island of San Domingo, by the
Custom-house Authorities there in the pay of the
Spanish Government,_,_ was immediately con-
demned as insurgent property, and, the proceeds
forthwith distributed, though it was offered to be
proved that the vessel and property belonged to
merchants at Barbadoes, who had entered into a
contract to supply the British troops and ships
with oxen, and that it was in the execution of
this duty that the vessel had come to Samana,
for the purpose of purchasing cattle. So soon
as Admiral Harvey and Lord Combermere heard
of this infraction of the Laws of Nations, the
Scantander was dispatched to Samana, to demand
the vessel and property. The vessel was found
totally useless---,the money she had on board had
been distributed--the crew had been thrown into
a dungeon, and three of them had there died
of a fever. The Governor of the place acknow-
ledged the error of the Judge, but, he said, the
Public Treasury dld not contain a single dollar,
and therefore he could not offer any satisfaction!
London, England, 1818-10-26

THE THEATRE.

The Tragedy of The Distressed Mother was re-
presented again on Saturday last at Drury-Lane
Theatre, and the part of Andromache was assigned
to Mrs. GLOVER, who, though a truly excellent
comic Actress, is not equally successful in the
tragic province. But as good sense and feeling
invariably malt her acting, the part appeared to
much greater advantage than the previous Occa-
sion. Not that Mrs. MACKENZIE did not render
it justice in point of judgment and sensibility,
but that her person altogether was not calculated
to supply so. brantiful and dignified a form as
the Poet had designed. Mrs. WEs-r, who is most
deservedly rising tact into popular favour, again
presented Hermione to the audience with critical
truth, animated feeling, and impressive energy.—
A Morning Paper hints that this Tragedvanay give
way to Sir Giles a.erreach or Richard M. because
Mrs. WEST certainty makes the most prominent
figure in it. We hope no such partial bias may be
found in the ACTING CONW.IiTTEII ; yet we have
heard a story about Hamlet, which we trust is not
true, but which requires explanation. Mr. KHAN
vas again warmly applauded by his admirers in
Orestes, and Mr. D. FISHER received well-merited
approbation for his performance of Pyrrhui. The
Atterpiece was The Review, but the want of
JonmsTos R in the chief part waa so obvious, that
we here drop the critical curtain.

CAUTION TO COLLIERS.—A melancholy acci-
dent happened at Bal{shill Colliery, Westbrom-
wich, on Wednesday. Three men got into askip,
for the purpose of descending one of the shafts
into the pit, by means ofawbimsey, which was un-
der.thecare of a man named IVard, who at the time_
they began to descend the shaft was at the geers
of the whimsey, and knew they were in tbe skip.
When they had got down about twelve yards 014
whimsey turned again, the skip amended at a very
quick rate, was draWn "over the pulley at the top
of the pit-frame, and broken to pieces, and two
of the men, Molhorn and Steeley, fell to the bot-
tom, a depth of 120 yards, and were killed. Clew-
ley, upon ascending the mouth of the shaft, per-
ceived that Ward was not at the geers to guide the
engine, and knowing the consevence to be in-
evitable destruction, saved himself by catching
hold of some of the uprights of the pit-frame, to
which he clung, until the waggon was slided over
the mouth of the shaft. The Jnry gave a verdict
of Manslaughter against Ward, who was cortmett-
i ted to Stafford Gaol.

" A letter trout Metieres, of the 19th instant,

" At the Election for the Department of Seiae

POETRY.

DREAMS.

Sweet is the dream, divinely sweet,
"• When absent sauls in fancy meet!"

I dreamt that at E'en a white mist arose
Where the hedge-row bi ambles 'twist—
I thought.that my love was a sweet wild-rose,
And I the silv'ry mist
And sweetly 1 headed her pale-red charms
With many a diamond speck,
And softly I bent up my wat'ry arms,
And hung round her beautiful neck.
0 me ! what a heavenly birth
I revell'd all night
'Till the morn came bright,
Then sank at her feet down again in the earth.

I dreamt that my Love was a sweet wild-pea
All cover'il with purple bloom,
And I, methought, was an amorous Bee
That lov'd the rich perfume.
Large draughts of nectar I sat to sip
On a bean leaf just below—
I brcath'd her breath, and 1 kist her lip,
And my Love was as chaste as suow !
0 me! what a beautiful task!
For there I lay
'Till eve grew grey,
While she in the sun's bright gleam did bask.

Again—l was where the pale moon did line
The forest with silver ;
And I thought my Love was a wild woodbine,
And I—a zephyr light :
" Welcome," said I, " where the bramble weaves
" Around us a guard of thorns
And sweetly I tangled myself in her leaves,
And blew her red-streak'd horns.
Sweet music ! by that we led
• A gay dance about
'Till old Night came out
To rock us to sleep in his darkling hed.

Lme Times.l

The Sovereigns of Russia and Prussia have at
length taken their departure from Aix•la-Clia-
pelle, leaving the Emperor of Austria in sole pos-
session. The staff of the two former Monarchs
am'ivcd at Valenciennes on the ISth inst.) and the
reviews were to commence on the 21st. Two
Bri!ish ea,nps, it is understood, were to be form-
ed immediately after the review, one at St. Omer,
the other on the plain of Marek, at Calais. As
the troops embark from the latter port, others
wll replace then) from St, Otner ; and thus the
whole n►nvemneutef the army will be accomplished
with less embarrassment to the public service, and
with more regard to the comfort and convenience
Of individnah. The English transpotts have been
collectbv for sonic time past. According to the
French i'ap:•rs, M. Blot de Chauvigny has been
arrested as r. particeps in the affair of General Ca-
nnel
; with regard to which he was at first exa-
mined as a witness. A Frankfort letter in these
'journals states, that if the proposition of the
President be adopted for the military organiza-
tion of the Germanic league, the Confederate
at my will amount to 1 per cent. on the gross po-
pulation of Germany ; or, according to the latest
e,timates, about 30,000 men, with a reserve of
half that number. This is, apparently, a great
force ; but it is in fact a Militia force, and appli-
cable to purely defensive purposes—if, indeed, au
urtny of such a various and complex nature can
for any purpose be rendered effective and com-
plete.

his neglect, exposed the seaman
.Conolly to•the.
string of calamities which I. B. enumerates. The'
Writer, howeviy, states;'--that Conolly was the
ship's armourer---(be is therifore a smith by trade,
and might have worked if be chose)—and Was
discharged from the Tiber without a pension, al-
though he was fully entitled to one. I believe
none of your Readers ever heard that it was the
Captain's business to procure a pension for every
man he discharges. Sailors are [not very often
_ignorant of their own rights, and know very well
where and how to apply for redress. But the
attack was made to introduce the malicious re-
mark, that Captain DACRES had the honour of
striking the flag of the Guerriere. He did so; and
had I. B. been present with him on that occasion,
I have no doubt but that be would have quaked
within his skin, and wished the flag and the
Captain both at the bottom of the sea, for not
striking sooner, by an hour, than he did. But I. B.
might have added what he could ' have found in
The Times of the 29th October, 1812,—that the-
gallant Officer in question, whose name has been
so wantonly dragged forward on this. occasion,
was honourably acquitted of all blame by a Court-
Martial composed of British Officers, jealous of
the national honour, and prompt to punish who-
ever, through misconduct or want of effort,
might have brought disgrace on his Majesty's
flag. Let them, then, speak for Captain DACRES.
They ate all known to fame—Vice-Admiral Sir
HERBERT SAWYER, Captains bit' JOHN BeRESFORD,
and Sir PHILIP BROKE, Captain JOHN BASTARD,
and several others. What say they when sitting
in judgment on Captain DACREs—his life and
honour in their hands—and they sworn to do
im-
partial justice by him and the Crown ? Sir,
they answer, "That the surrender of the Goer-
.
" riere was proper, in order to preserve the lives
" of her valuable remaining crew, and that her
" being in that lamentable situation was from the
" accident of her masts going, the enemy being
" also so greatly superior in guns and men. They
" did therefore unanimously and honourably ac-
" quit the said Captain DACRES, his Officers, and.
the company of his Majesty's late ship Guer-

‘• riere."

That a blockhead shot►ld delight in seeing his

vapid nonsense in pint is too common io be won-
dered at, But that a respectable Paper should,
like certain Examiners of the present day, lend
their columns to work mischief, and print before
.they examine, is to me, fown, very surprising.

I am, Sir,

Your very humble SerVant,

VtTRAdT OV A LETTRR, DATED ST. PIERRE,
MARTINIQUE, NOV. 10.

On the 21st of October, this. colony .wasVisi:'ed
by the most furions hurricane ever wilnes-Sed here.
'The details of this sad disaster I,,Vanld be equally
goat; as painful. The toss of nearly Lobo lives,
25,000 hogsheads of sugar of the present and
next croft, incalculable losses 'in Isni!dings,
animals, and the necessaries of life, have oc-
vasiOned a geiieral desolation, independently of
-the great any:',:y caused by nine-tenths 'of the
shipping, whien were in the different ports of
the island, 'being either wrecked, damaged. or
missing. St. Lucie and Dominica have equally
suffered ; the tempest reached also St. Vincent
and Gren4da. Its ravages extended to Gnada-
loupe, as well as Porto-Rico and its.neighbour-
'hood, though in a less degree. The loss expe-
rienced by Martinique alone may be very mode-
rately calculated at 25,000,000 of francs, exclu-
sively of the shipping : the works and buildings of
entire parishes were razed to the ground. It
lasted 26 hours, 12 of which with such inconeeive-
able fury, as to produce all these disasters, and to
'destroy buildings whicis had withstood all former
hurricanes. It will require many years before the
colony can recover itself from this heavy calamity.
This event his caused the following I'rt:clawat ion
to be issued, which opens the ports to ail foreign
vessels :

FROM CAYENNE.—Captain JOHNSON, of the
brig Joseph, who arrived at Marblehead on the
2Gth inst., in. 42 (lays, from Cayenne, states, that
there had been more sickness at that place during
the season than had ever been known there before.
The sickness had begun to subside when the

SHOCKING BRUTALITY.

MANSioN-HotisE.—A German, named, Gortz,
yesterday appeared upoit a summons to Answer the
Comp!alio ot Mrs. Gosling, wife to a private in
the Foot Guards, for an assault of the most brutal
description upon herself and infant child.
From tie evidence of the complainant,' corro-
borated by the testimony ot two other person.,
the following facts appeared i—The complainant
Was a lodger in the house of Gortz, and a few
days ago was confined by illness to her bed. Her
husband being compelled to be absent on his
duty as a soldier, requested that 'Mrs. Gortz
would see that his wife .‘ did, not want."
Sunday morning Mrs. Gortz came into 'com-
plainant's room, and seeing one of the chairs
broken, commenced a volley of abut,e. The
complainant said she was too ill to dispute with
her, and requested she would withdraw : instead
of which, however, she continued her invectives,
and called her husband to assist her. The latter
entered the room in a most violent pission,
stantly began to beat the complainant as she lay
in bed, and not content with that, seized the in-
fant (about seven months old) from her side, and
threw it under the fire ! The'hand and arm of
the child were dreadfully burned. The complain-
ant fearing something dreadful would ensue, got
to tbe window, where by her cries she brought
some neighbours to her assistance, and further
violence was prevented.
The LORD MAYOR having remarked upon the
savage disposition evinced by, the defendant and
the extreme brutality of such an attack, ordered
both him and his wife to find hail.

The door of the City of London Tavern was
thronged, yesterday, with seamen, ready to prove
their claim to that denomination, and justifying
by their visible distress the benevolent work that
was going on within.
RoßauqG of MR. BRAHAM.—Yesterday, about
a quarter before five o'clock in the afternoon, the
house of Mr. •Brahatn, in Tavistock-place, was
sainted with a double knock, when himself and
family were sitting down to dinner. As Mr. B,
was abut to perform in the Opera of Guy Man-
nering., the footman was ordered to 5. ay Mr. Bialialn

It Is' with grief wecommimicate to our ileader's
the following- deta4 of the mel.wcholy fate of a
part of 'the crew of the brigantine Fidelity, of
Aberdeen, Capt. Murray, as eOntained in a letter
• from the Agent -for Lloyd's, dated Lertsick, Zet-
• larld, Deeernher 21 :--
" me to acquaint you, that I received
information about four o'clock yesterday after-
• noon, that a water-logged brig, belonging
• to Aberdeen, was driven ashore on the coast
• between Laxfrith and Catirith Voe. I itame-
(hloely 'proceeded to the place, 'accompanied by
• Captain Creaser, of the late brig Helmsley, and
Mr. James GiTig, Of this place, bOth very intelligent
seamen, On riar arrival we 'found the vessel was
the Fidelity, of Aberdeen., Alexander Murray,
-master, from Me'inel, with a cargo of timber avid
deals, for Liverpool; that she had left Memel 1.5
days before, and was proceeding on her passage,
when she was overtaken by a very heavy gale of
wind, and a treMendons beaVy sea ; that lying-to,
on Monday night, the 15th inst. she was struck
with a very heaVy wave, in consequence of which
she became very leaky, when they were obliged
to, cut away the main-mast, in order to get her
before the. wind, after which they succeeded by
great exertion in keeping her in that position
rill Wednesday night, when she was struck again •
with two very heavy seas, and immediately be-
came completely water-logged, and the sea mak-
ing a passage over her, sweeping every thing off
the deck. All hands were then obliged to repair
to the fore-top, where, in consequence of extreme
fatigtie, lumger, and cold, they all perished, ex-
cept Captain Murray, and James Spoiler, one of
the seamen. Besides the ship's compaoy, there
were two seamen passengers, who also perished ;
and the deck of the vessel having seven dead bo-
dies lying.on it, exhibits a scene the most deplor-
able that can be'imagined. Captain Murray had
been thirty hours in the fore-top, without food,
or even a great coat to keep hint warm ; yet he is
in good health, except that his feet and hands are
notch swelled, and the seaman is also tolerably well.
The vessel had drifted ou shore upon an exposed
rocky part of the coast, where the least puff of
easterly 0r southerly wind must have broken her
to pieces, had not immediate assistance been given;
and I am most happy to inform you, that not a
moment was lost in taking her out of this danger-
ous situation, which we succeeded in doing beyond
our most sanguine expect ations, and carried the
vessel, by towing with boats (the fore-top-sail
being only left without its halyards), into a place
where she now lies in perfect safety. It is my
intention to wait a favourable opportunity of
'carrying the-vessel to this place."
In addition to the above distressing accounts,
we have also to state the painful intelligence Of
the loss of the fine brig Caroline, Duncan, of
Aberdeen., from St. John's, New Brunswick,
which vessel has gone ashore in the Orkneys, bot-
tom up ; and we are gt ieved to add, there are no
accounts of the crew.

THE IRISHMAN'S BLUNDER.

One Mister O'Donii;:hoe begged I'd IJU taking
At Dub!ill a dinner with him ;
" By St, Patrick," he said, " and I'll show your two eves,
A sight that shall strike you quite dumb with surprise,"
So I thought I would humouv his whim. ,

And dinner once over we pushed round the wine,

buyers at Market, and our prices may be consider-

day's prices, the quantity of English at Market
being small, winch oecasio►►e a brisk sale for Fine

people hate got a strong idea that Bign will be

consider they are already lower in proportion
than Pockets. There were some large sales of
Bags made here on Saturday, but at such prices
as the trade had not been accustomed to, even the
day before ; many lots of handsome well managed
Kerns were sold from 51. 14s. to 6!. and
