MARGATE, SEPTEMBER 23.

Lady DUDLIT and WARD is among the lateft
arrivals. Her Ladythip has taken a neat houfe
for two months oppo6te the Theatre.
Lord &owe Low left us yefterday for hii coun-
try feat. Lady &ova Low remains at Broad-
Sir THOMAS LIDDELL gave a grand (upper on
Tuefday laft to a fele& circle at Liddell Houfe.
The entertainment was given in the ufual ftile.
The amount of the fibfcription for the widow
and nine children of the man accidentally killed,
exceeds 400). The appropriation of this fum is
afcribed to Sir Hosacs Mass, and it does credit
to his head as well as his heart. The widow is to
have an annuity of Isl. for life, and the refidue is
to be fettled on the children.

The fair at the Recukers, on Monday laft, was
not fo well attended as was expelled. The only
amufetnents were ifs and pig racing.
A Knight'of the Cleaier yefterday relieved him-
fill from the iticumbrance of his wife,by difpofing
of her at the market* crofs, to a Knight of the
Comb, for half a crown and a pot of porter, ac-
cording to the forms in this cafe made and pro-
Tided an our civilifed country. The Butcher com-
plained that the girl was too fentimental for him,
and the Barber, who feemed proud of his prize,
exclaimed that he loved a woman of fentiment,
and led off his delicate companion, followed by the
(bouts of the admiring multitude.
The Lord Nelfon packet arrived yefterday from
London, after a patfage, of 52 'hours. Many of
the paffengers, who, calculating upon a Asort paf-
fage, provided themfelves accordingly, were obli-
ged to trefpafs on the flock of their fellow-paf-
fengers. A community of. property foon took
place; but about 16 hours before they had reached
the harbour, the whole of their provitions, includ-
ing the fret! water, were exhaufted. The appear-
ance of the paffengers on their arrival,particularly
the Ladies, can be early imagined; few were able
to !Whin themfelves along the pier—they wore
literally borne along:
A boat has jut} arrived in 15 hours from Oftend.
I I have converfed with one of the paffengers, who
appears to be a very intelligent man. He Rates
that orders have been iffued within the laft fix days
rto prevent any Pruifian vetrel which entered the
harbour. from,. unloading. This prohibition has
been very ftriatVenforced, and it very naturally
led to apprehentions that force difference had taken
place between the Confular Government and his
Prufll Majefty ; a eircumftance, however, ex-
tremely improbable. My informant taro men-
tioned to me that .the population of Oftend has
confiderably diminithed even fence the peace; that
of trade they have none, except a little in falt.—
This he attributes to the very high duties which
have been impofed on almoft all articles of corn-
merge by the Fiench Government. The follow.
iag addition to thofe already exiting has been
;made within the laft lo days :

. cent. upon Tabors:O.
aa lb. on Raw Sugar and Corm.
30 °Nes per ton upon Foreign Fib. .
•He adds that a tax of 13s. per chaldron has
'bees laid upon all Britifh Coals imported. Boris.-
'ARTS' he defcribes as exceedingly unpopular
throughout the whole of the Belgic Provinces.—
The horror of anarchy originally reconciled the
people, to his power; but that hour is now in a
great degree fuperfeded by the averfion they enter-
tain for his perfon and authority, owing to the in-
ordinate ambition he has manifefted to invade the
power of independent nations and thtprivikgeruf
the &vie fubjaa to his dominion. Ms Fleming*
would much rather prefer their ancientrgiatr. Many
of them, particularly thole of the manufaturing
daily, emigrate to Holland. in the hope,
