LiviarooL, Mulcts 21.—The Dorothy arrived here on the
15th instant, from Calcutta, whence she sailed on the 15th of
October. Her passage, owing to light winds and many calms,
was excessively tedious. She touched at the Cape on the 20th
of December, entering Table Bay during a most severe south-
easter, the violence of which was such as to cause her to part
with a strong chain cable in coming to anchor; she was, fortu-
nately, brought up quickly by a second anchor, and she kept her
ground. The Adrian, Capt. Holism, bound to London, from
°Calcutta, entered Table Bay in company with the Dorothy, and
resumed' het voyage on the 23d. The Indiamen, in which were
embarked the 16th Dragoons and other troops, passed the Cape
in September, all well. The Dorothy passed St. Helena on the
9th of January, sailing close to the- island, where she left the
Roscoe, Captain Molt:mon, from Bombay, bound to Liverpool,
and the Alexander, Capt. Suarw, from Ceylon to London,
Both these ships were to proceed onwards immediately. The
Dorothy encountered two severe gales on her voyage • the first
immediately after leaving her pilot in the Bay of Bengal, and
the second a few days before making the land of Cape Clear.
When the Dorothy left India, our possessions in that country
were in a state of perfect tranquillity. The Marquis of Ilas-
mscs and family were expected to leave India in the middle of
D:eember, in the GLASGOW frigate, Capt. Doirtz. The Colum-
bia, from Liverpool to Bengal, arrived a few days previous to
the sailing of the Dorothy.

A copper mine has lately been discovered at Knack-
orsknowle, near Plymouth ; and, ftoin the opinion of
competent judges, it is likely to prove very valuable.
An intelligent Naval Gentleman, who has been re•
siding some time at Toulouse, recently left that city
and travelled the coast road of France to St. Maloes.
We are informed by him, that about '250 English are
remaining at Toulouse, where the most violent anti-,
pathy to the war exists among tlle,civil classes. At
Rochetnit, there are six sail of the line in condition
for sea, but not manned or rigged ; at Brest, there are
twenty sail of dit-linc;ortly one o(which is equipping
for sea. Brest, and all the towns, garrisons,"and vil-
lages, are completely drained of soldiers, as, since the
first Orders for collecting an army near Bayonne, a
second collection has been assembled-in the Western
Provinces, with orders to repair to Mandel s; andSooo
troops lately marched thrOugh Rennes on their way
