AMERICAN PAPERS.

NASSAU/. Aim. 18,-0 On Monday arrived, off
the Bar, the American brig Warren, Capt. Envy,
five days from Cape Francois. Capt. Espy 'fates,
that Bow troops, and five fail of men of war, had
arrived at the Cape on the 3d. That the day
after their arrival, the Negroes, headed by Toys-
SAINT% tons, ftormed a fort not far from the Cape,
and killed every Frenchman in it. The evening'
previous to Capt. Epov's departure, an engage-
ment took place fo near the town, that the report
of the suns was dillinaly heard on board of the
veffels in the harbour. The relish was not known
when Capt. EDDY failed. The French troops con-
tinued very fickly, particularly thofe lei arrived
from France. Provifion: were very cheap at the
Cape. flour only four dollars pmbarrel."
The above article is taken from the Bahama
Papers of Aug. 21, brought to New York by the
hip Aurora, Capt. Mat-rocas. The Negroes are
hid to be in confiderable force, and to have been
encouraged to revolt by the mortality which the
yellow fever has made among the French troops,
and their indignation at the perfidious manner in
which TOUSSAIDT was fent to France. This ac-
count derives a confiderable degree of probability.

tremely agitated by an alarii of the yellow fever.
Our phyfiCians-differ as to the name of the dif-
order, and its alledged contagious quality; but they
agree that an extremely malignant and fatal fever '
elide in the town. This is enough to make any
man leave it." The Obituary of New

fever, but accompanied with a denial of its bag

We are informed that Mr. Anrunoron has been
clofetted with the Duke of Yost:, in confultation
refpeg what the Rate of affairs requires to be
done m the military department.
Tho:pmfent Rate of public affairs is fcarcely
mottlitteretling than the prefent Rate of political
podia.' It is well known that many of Mr. PITT'S
private friends have been drawing round his re-
treat at Walmer, fo that it prefents more the ap-
pearance of a political convention than of a party of
Lord GasisvlcLa lately paid a vifit to

The Funds experienced yeflerday a trifling rife
from die price of the preceding day, in coife.
quence of an application he to the Bank from
the Holders of thionimh that the Direaors would
delay the final redemption of it until after the Mid-
fummer Dividend of nest year. The purport of
the Petition was as follows : .
It expreffes the thanks of the Omnium-holders
for the attention thews. to their application kit
June, (when the Bank agreed to take it in) and
that the affißance of the Bank had been of mate-
rial fervice to public credit ; We untoward cir-
cur:Ames had neverthelefs defeated the expeeta-
lions of the Omnium=holders, and from the quan-
tity of it now lying at the Bank, the Direetors
mot be aware of the inconveniencies that would
refult from redeeming it at one time. The Holders
therefore reqoeft the-Bank will bold the Omnium
as long as it prudently can next 'year : and that
they will redeem it by monthly initalasents, the
lid of which they hope will be extended' to the
'month of July; • They. conclude by expreffing
their readinefs to make the left depofit of Is per
cent. in December next-
The rife of the Funds was attributed by font
perfons to the price of French Stocks, which do

Several days prior to the opening of the Fai,-

many of the Nobility tent their fervants to procure
lodgings, which fetched an enormous price ; and
after its commencement we could boat of as man
Fafhionables as any of your faihionable places
the Kingdom ;in fhort, Bury St. Edmund's was
London in miniature. We had Concerts, Mein.
blies, Balls and Plays, for the amufement of the
gay, and Sacred Mufic for thofe of a more ferious
call. The Concerts.were performed on Tuefilav,
Thurfday and Saturday, and were aided by the
attradive powers of Mrs. &Lit moron and Mifs
'FINNAN'', a young lady poffeffing a very pleafing
voice. The Concerts were under the direainn of
Mars &Looms and HARRINGTON. On Monday,
Wednefday and Friday, and op Saturday at twelve
'o'clock, Sacred Mufic was performed at theChureh,
and here again Mrs. BILLINGTON2S vocal abilities
were called into anion, together with Tome others
of the bell Performers, but their united efforts
prcived no better than a dry fermon, for the Con.
grWeion was thin on each day.
Play-houfe was more fuccefsful ; every night
produced a crowded houfe. The Performers were
the Norwich Company, among whom were Come
refpedable actors.
As for the Affemblies, they were generally filled
with genteel Company ; but the Ball on Friday
laft was by far the molt brilliantly attended. The
afemblase confifted of near 410 perfons. Among
the Fafhimiables who attended the Ball and other
places of amufement were, the Dukes of RUTLAND
and GRAFTON, Marquis CORNWALLIS, Lords C.

During laft week, no accidents of confequen:e

exceedingly crowded, and there has been a great
deal of bard driving every day among the race of
'thus. Only three Pickpockets made their appear.
ance, and they were not long fuffered to esercife
their profeffional ; for it appears that many
depredations and much mifchief having been com.
matted at Stirbitch Fair, the Mayor and Corpora.

R. FORD, to fend down two Officers from Bow.

liberately confidered the evidence for and agatnit
the priforer, as well as what he had to offer in his
defence, is of opinion he is not guilty on the flail
charge, viz. ungentlemanlike conduit towards
Lieut. Haan, and do therefore moil honourably
acquit him; and having alto maturely and deli-
berately confidered the evidence _for and nainft
the prifoner, as well as what he had to offer m his
defence, is of opinion he is not guilty on the fecund
charge, viz. of being drunk on the Dock-guard,
.on the slight of the 17th of Augu ft Taft, and do
therefore moll honourably acquit him.
And the Court is further of opinion, that both
charges are groundlefs and vexatious, and origin-
ating in malice : 'and that the. condua of Lieut.

his CoMmanding Officer, in hefitating to obey his

This Court feel themfelies called upon to point

propofal made by Lieut. Noma!, to raife a fubferip-

fecuting Capt. Las ; a propofal fubverfive of all
good order and military difcipline.
And the Court is alto of opinion, that the con-
duit of Lieuttnants CROCZAT and HILL, in giving
their teftimony before the Court of Inquiry, and
this Court, is highly honourable, and much to

• MR. BARRTET'S BALLOON.
, The following a corred account of Mr. Bab
fecond,Rtempt to afcend in, Swa tea w,d;
his Air Balloon, which he 'bade on Fr.:l4
the I.sth infi.
Anlivertifeinerit, circulated through the Prin-
cipality's itotwithfianding Mr. B.'s late failure;
drew together a greater affeMblage of perfons
than on the, Former occafion .• the public faith
being firengthened by fome Gentlemen of of the
town, who perfonally folicited fubfcriPtions to
defray the expences,attending his fornier attempt,
and to procure plenty of vitriolic acid for his fecond.
Mr. BARRETT declared publicly he had no money ;
that he pofitively would 'afcend on that day, wea-
ther permitting—and having made over his bal-
loon and apparatus to Mr. FLEX hell, the chymiti,
'and a Mr. Russet., who were jointly bound for
the payment of the acid, iron filings, &c. &c. on
Friday, the isth, about eight o'clock, the procefs
commenced, with as fine a day as was ever wit.
netted. For an hour all teemed going on very
well ; every one willied him fticcefs, as they all
ccmmirerated the difirelfed situation of poor
BARRETT. The &ft accident was the burning of
one of the calks; which contained the preparations
for producing the gas ; and in flopping of which
one of the aflifiants was dreadfully burnt with Vie
acid. Another calk was loon fupplied. Tne
procefs teemed going on fmoothly for about an
hour, when, one of the fpedators hallooed out
f• the balloon is open, the balloon is open I" mean-
ing the valve, which was the cafe. The fudden
calling out alarmed the multitude, who were in-
Randy feized with as much terror as if there had
been an earthquake—Erich was the anxiety of the
public for the fuccefs of the (hanger and his aerial
machine. After fome time, and a great deal of
gas loft, the firing of the valve was found to
have got into contact with, and to be adhering
to the filk of the balloon, which was (trained, and
caufed the valve to be pulled open ; it was no*
400fened, and the valve again doted. All being
fet to rights, hopes were entertained things would
go on well • but about twelve o'clock, a large
hole was dilbovered about three or four feet from
the mouth or aperture of the balloon ; this was
foon remedied by the dexterity, of a good-natured
lafs of about twenty Jane, who muted no fmall
degree of laughter, as the was lifted on the Rage.
The balloon did not yet teem to be a quarter tnll
—it was now one o'clock. Sir Ware IN LEWIs
(who was one of the greate( number of titles
and fafilionables ever feen here) now came for-
ward to the Rage to Mr. BARRETT, to advife him
at any rate to try the power of the balloon, as the
hour fixed on was pelt, and at the fame time giv-
ing him his fubfcription of a guinea. At this
moment aloud cry, from the oppolite tide of the
Rage, Hefe's a large hole, and the air coming
out ;"—it was full a font long. A needle and
thread was again called for, and the hole fewed
up. The feeders of the cants now told Mr..l3ae-
MITT they had tapt the laft bottle of vitriolic acid.
ig Well,' Paid Mr. Baaaarrs' el I'll now go home
for my flags, &c." and left the Rage for that par-
pore.. The balloon not being a third full, and all
the vitriol ,on the ground (pent, BARRETT'S
leaving the ground created a fufpicion that he was
going to brulh off. One of Mr. BARR aTt's affifi-
ants on the Rage, who was (aliening on the bancet
or car, diffipated the fears of the rnblic, by affuring
them he would forfeit his life if ar. Beaxerr was
not there by the time the car was fixed on; or if
he, Mr. B. did not return, he would himfelf ifeend
with the balloon. This the chymift objected to,
faying, perhaps he would not return with it !
In the miclß of the altercation, Mr. BARRETT ar-
rived, and every thing being prepared by the
affillant above alluded to, (who, we are informed,
was LEE SUGG, the Ventriloquift,) Mr. BARRETT
took his feat in the balket, or car. The ropes
were all cut, and the balloon held down by the
car—they now eafed it, but found it would not
rife ; all ballafi was now thrown out—the
people on the Rage lifted up the car, and the
balloon, with Mr.-B. fet off—took him about 20
yards—and down it came. The mob took him
up, and brought him to a rifing ground, dote, to
the fea, and lifted the car as high as they could
reach ; the balloon reached acrofs the field, and
he alighted in the hedge. The mob again lifted
the car off the hedge, tt went about ten yards, juft
ficimming the earth, and now it Ruck fall again.
Mr. BARRETT, now allured it would not take him
up, let the balloon go without him. It afcended
pretty well for about half a minute—it then upfet
itfelf entirely ; but foon recovering its proper fitur.
ation, it afcended gradually, till it became to the
eye like a liar. As the balloon had been new
varnithed, and the fun thining on it, it had every
appearance of one. The wind was at South Weft:
when it afeendetis and blew direct from the fea ;
but after it had Wilt up about an hour, it was Peen
by fome of the eaters of the Spitfire !loop of
war (now lying In the Mumbles)about two leagues
out at fea, who, thinking Mr. BARRETT was with
it, very kindly had their boats manned to pick
him up, in cafe be fell. However, the wind again
blew to the land, and the balloon defcended in a
field near Cline wood, about five miles from
Swanfea. -Many perfons had obferved its courfe ;
but the perfon who firft got hold of it, not know-
ing how to manage it, cut the netting, and hold-
ing the balketi the balloon again afiended, and
tame down again in a field belonging to Huon
Wareing, Efq. at Myrton, about nine miles from
Swanfea, about eight o'clock, having been up,
from the time of Mr. B.'s afcending, five hours.
A great many country people now laid hold of
it, and the firli thing they did was to cut it open
" to let• the aunt out," as they fitid ; but finding no
man in it, they now cut it in two, and were about
to divide it in pieces amongil them, when the
truly humane Gentleman above•named refcued it
from their hands, and had it focused in his barn.
The fame night it was brought to town in a ter-
ribly mangle 4 fiat-. Every one Is forry for dr.
BARRETT, as he difplayed great conlnefs, and
would molt. certainly have gone with his balloon,
had it been full enough.
