A stage-coach belonging to Mr. Husrwicx, of

eased by its use, that most of the coaches which tra-

Extract of a letter from the Agent to Lloyd's, dat-
e 4 Lisbon, June 30 On the 24th instant the
Swedish ship Calypso, from Cork, bound to this port,
vests boarded 'about six miles from Viana, by an
American schooner privateer, which plundered part
of the cargo, took the ship's boat and other things,
and promoted her to proceed. Another Swede was
also plundered by the same privateer, and afterwards
liberated. It is suspected that the above-mentioned
privateer must be either the General Armstrong or
the Kemp, of Baltimore, as the Sir Alexander Ball,
from Bristol to Malta, was captured by the first on
the 15th instant, about 80 miles from the Rock, after
an engagement-of 20 minutes ; and the latter had
captured the Mary and Betsey, Smith, master, from
St. Andero foe Bristol, on the 21st inst. 'and, after
taking out part of her cargo of wool, set her on fire.
The Sir Francis Burdett hats likewise been captured by
an American privateer. called the Midas. The Cap-
tains of these three vessels are arrived here, having
been put on board the neutrals. It is also said, that
the General Armstrong had captured the Fanny, of
Liverpool, previous to her taking the Sir Alexander
B.►ll. There are two Algerine frigates and the brig of
war cruising on this coast. The reports respecting
them are various ; but I understand they have de-
dared that they are cruising for the ships of all na-
tions, with the exception of British, French, Spanish,
and Portuguese ; and that they have taken many
prizes."
FIRE—A fire occurred yesterday, about 12 o'clock,
in the mannfactory of*Mr. Annie, ink-maker; &c. in
Baldwin's Gardens, Gray's Inn•lane, which caught
the adjoining feather-bed warehouses backwards and I
did great damage before it could be subdued.
Wednesday se'nnight, a fire broke out, in the stables
belonging to S. Ltugman, Esq. in New Ormond-
street, -which in a short time totally consumed the
whole buildings. Th. accident was occasioned by
.the ostler leaving a candle in the manger, which
eommunicated to some hay, and immediateli set fire,
► the premises. Three 'valuable horses perished in
the flames.

MARLBOROUGH-ST*B2l%—W. Howard, thepreteader
to the Dukedom of Norfolk, was yesterday charged
wideavating a riot in St. James's-square, from ten
in the morning till four in the afternoon. A servant
4.0 the Doke of Norfolk proved that the defendant
paid his daily visits at the house. and collected im-
mense mobs, which he amused by vilifying the
Duke. It was neat tb impossible for any person to
get into the house.—ln defence, the defendant utter-
ed all sorts of libellous abuse against the Norfolk fa-
mily and concluding with modestly assoring the
Magistrate, that all he wanted of the Duke was five
hundred a year, to enable him to live in the country
like a gentleman. He was conupitied to Bridewell
in default of bail. •

. Damao Rosaztiv.—A most extraordinary and
daring outrage was committed on Saturday evening
last, in, the residence of Colonel KING, in the Clois-
ters, Windsor Castle.. About five o'clock, a female
servant, who had been left alone in the house, hearing
a noise in the upper rooms, ran up stairs, and disco-
vered a man on his knees in her master's bed-room,
:examining the contents of a trunk on the floor. On
•qoestioning him as to his purpose, he replied, that
Colonel Kitichad senthim with a porter for his trunks,
as be was going to London that evening. The young
woman expressed her astonishment, but allowed him
to take the trunk down stairs into the passage ;—he
returned to the bed-room, and again seized upon a
writing-desk and small box, and removed a baize
from the table, for the supposed purpose of wrapping
Them in. At this moment the young woman per-
ceived a pistol in his pocket, sad, as he left the room,
heroically determined to resist his departure with the
booty. Snatching up her masters sword, which she
concealed behind her, she followed him to the door,
and expressed her resolution to oppose his progress.
He immediately knocked her down, and, perceiving
the sword, repeated his blows with dreadful menaces,
- presenting his .pistol to her head. Extricating her.
self from at lengtircontrived to wound him
in the WIND upon which he knocked her down with
the, ban of his pistol. At this moment some person
rang at the front door, when the young woman con-
sinuing her cries, the ruffian made his escape by the
back door, which opens into a narrow passage divided
Only by a slight pailing_froin the plantation, called
the. Sifees, under the Terra,. 'the footman who
rang at the front door, and a party of soldiers, made
every search after the villain, but without effect.--
The young woman describes the offender as a, person
of genteel appearance, and states that his arm bled
profuselyvand that his stockings were marked with
the blood from her nose. She has been very unwell,
skis week, her head and face being much bruised.

Uttle relief, would appear .to be or the most inveterate nature. In
the spring of last year my disorder had got to such a head, as
nearly to put a period to my existence. In this state, I was re-..
commended by Mr. 1. Thompson, (who received so great a cure
by them here,) to take your Leake's Patent Pills, which I began
to do on the 26th May ; in the course of a fortuigh- I began to
receive benefit. In little more than a month I became, by
your liberal advice and medicine, perfectly free from my for-
mer complaints, hare recovered my former spirits and st.:er.Lth,
and am become jolly and fat, in which state hayin,..., continued
many months to the astonishment of all who knew me, I am
at a loss in what terms to express my gratitude, but beg you fur
the good of other suffering mortals, to make this my case a,
public as possible, as I shall on every occasion—in so doing you
