In reference to a printed Notice which has hfressi
circulated, in which it is proposed that a Colnisig
:Equestrian Statue of his Royal flightless the Duke,
'Of YORK should be erected by subset iption, &c. &CI
it has been stated from authority that the proposal is
"by no means agreeable to the Illustrious Individual
who is the object of it ; and it has been also added,:
Ow the suggestion that one day's pay from each
Officer belonging to the different Regiments in the:
British Service should be subscribed in aid of this
.
undertaking, is in &tea opposition to the Orders
which have been issued to the ArrAy..
Yesterday a Festival was held At the 'London
vent, in commemoration of odriate beloved Soo s-,
minx, and to assist the/ promoting the design of erect-
ing a Monumental TrophY to his mernciry, We were
sorry to find the attendance'sbpin On such an occa-
sion, but we believe it arose entirely ffoOt certain dis-
sension; at present existing amongst the Committee
and Subscribers, on the subject of the design for the
intended trophy. The Chair was taken by Colonel
Gata-setr.t., in.the absence of the Lotto MAYOR, who
was in the performance of his duty in the Rouse of
Commons. The CHAIRMAN and Mr. J. THOMPSON,
addressed the Meeting in loyal and elegant language;
" The King," and many other loyal toasts, were
drank with great applause ;.and the memory of his late
MAJESTY was given in solemn and reverential'silence.
It appears by accounts from Bilbcia, that the Fs ench
garrison in St. Andero, having heard of the obstinate
defence made by the Consututionalistxin Santana,
evacuated the fortner place, and marched off to sup-
port the:Arm, of the Faith, in front of the latter.—
In the meantime, the besiegers had been completely
repulsed and dispersed by a sortie from Santona, so
that the French arrived AOO late. JAUREOUI, known
by the name of the Pastor, having heard of the move-
ment of this French corps, concerted a plan of attack
upon them with the garrison of Santona, which made
a sortie in front of them, whilst the Pastor, with part
of his guerilla, fell upon their rear. We understand
the whole French force was either cut to pieces
taken. A letter from Madrid, received in Paris, and
written subsequently to the entry of the French, speaks
saf another action that had taken place in the neigh?
bourhood, with a part of the Duke of Ancor:FLY-sat
force, in which the latter were severely handled. *;
We have seen a private letter, written on Saturday
last, which says, that thiee divisions of the French
army had left Madrid en the 25th, and that thew
were shortly to be followed. by two divisions more;
and that the whole Of this force was to ?rotted to the
South, by as rapid marches as the heat of the weather,
which was already very great, would permit. The
'letter computes the number of troops, exclusive of
the Spanish Royalists, who entered that capital on
the 23d and 24th, at nearly 50,000 men; of whom
about 30,000 were to be detached against.Sevige.—
The reserve, consisting chie4 aft tbtitoial Guard,
together with two diiisions, one of iefantry and ano-
ther of cavalry, are to-remain for tbe,preseut at Ma!
drid, to support the new Government, till thelatty
is able to organize a itifficientforCe for its own pKia•
tection, which is to occupy hi immediate aitentroas.
The letter anticipates less resistance, if possible, in the
South, than the French encountered in their march
to Madrid ; and considers the war as already verging
to a close.—Fublic Ledger.
One of the Tlibunals in Paris has: lately been atcw
pied in a very curious cause: it was nothing less than
the ti ial of t tight to the heal t of G RIMY, the celebrated
musical composer. GRIMY, when he died, left his
heart to his native city (Liege). His nephew, FLA..
MAND GRETRY, had never executed the will of the
uncle, and After a lapse of years, the inhabitants of
Liege have brought the question before the Courts of
law. M. FLAM4ND GRSTRY declares in his defence,
that on the demise of his uncle he wrote to the Bur-
gomaster of Liege, requesting him to send for the
heart, which was carefully preserved ; bttt that the
Magistrate replied by letter in these terms—" Vat-
law bien, Monsieur, nous eavoyer francs, le caar de
Monsieur, votre uncle, par /a diligence." This letter
filled M. GRATRY with suds indignation, that he
vowed the heart of his uncle should remain in:France,
and it was placed by him in an urn in the garden of
the hermitage of J. J. Rousseau, at Montmorency,
now the property of M. FLAMAND. The Municipality
of Liege however brought their action, and it' has
been decided in their favour. " This news," says an
article from Liege, in the Frankfurt Papers, " has
caused extraordinary. joy here. -Thus the last will of
that sublime genius will be accomplished, and this
precious deposit ;rill be an object of the eternal re-
spect of his fellowcitizens."
An accident occurred last week at Sheerness Dock-
yard to one of the convicts, which had likely to have
proved much /Here fatal in its consequences. A party
of 30 were engaged .in launching the mainmast of
the Hercules, 74, from the mast-house, afloat into the
river, and having succeeded in getting the heel or
lower part of it into the water, they were about raising
the end ashore with.two jacks, but there being at the
time a strong wind .with a'swell on the shore, the mast
was canted, which occasioned one of the jacks to give
way, when it immediately:fell, and a man named Ed-
ward Jackson was tinflutunately crushed to death
between that and the mizen-mast lying dose by; the
remainder of, the party having experienced a most
providential escape. An Inquest was afterwards held
on the boCiyil—Yerdict Accidental heath. •
