At length our uncertainty refpetling the Rate of 1
affairs on the Continent, is in Come mcafure removed
by the arrival of the Vrench Journals to the lath,'
and Dutch to the 16th infant. 1

The intelligence contained in there papers, is of as
difafirous a nature to the hopes of the Mies, as could
well be canceled. '1 he furrender of Prince HONKS-

Lows cule army, the laft hopes of Prunia and flower
of bar force, is unhappily confirmed. The cireum-
listeCes are detailed in the sad Bulletin of the French
army. The Psince, who focceeded the Duke of
BRUNSWICK in the chief command of the Pint-Gans,
was endeavouring to ORR his retreat to &et( in, for
the purpofe of crafting the Oder, when lie found
himfelf cut off at Prentzlau, by the Ftenrit divifinn
commanded by the Duke of Betio (Martha'
Mum). and was obliged to furrender with the
whole of his force, cohtifling of 22,000 men, of
whom 6000 were cavalry, and i 6,000 infantry.

Officers. are among the prifoners matte by the
tinerny.
Another column of the fame army, confining of
600 men, under General Haut t, was forced to
furrender two days after, viz. on the 29th ult.

General Bsucites's Sivilion, of 8000 men, there
is much reafon to fear has (offered the fame fate ;
and the whole of the remaining part of the Pruffian
force, confining of to,ooo men, which had croffed the
Elbe, are mentioned in the bulletins as likely to be
immediately furronnded, in which event the whole
of the Prue an army becomes annihilated.
To all this &Sifting intelligence we have have to

add, the capitulation of Magdeburgh, the furrender
of Stettin and Cuflrin, the formal occupation of Heffe
Caffel by the enemy, and the arrival of the merry

MORPAU.—Some of our eo.temporaries
have ezprelfed doubts of the arrival of this celebrated
Commander io London. We can allure the Public,
that he was not only in town for many days, bet that
it was at the preffing inftance of Government that he
came to England. He was conveyed from Lilo° in
one of his Majefly's veffels. The greatell care was
taken to prevent his arrival from being known. He
paired for an Italian, and had no communications at
I all, while here, but with his Majefly's Minifters.
He had literal conferences with Lord Ga tams'
and Lord Howls-a, and puffed a few days in the cum•
try with the Earl of Mona. It is clearly the wifh
of our Government, that he fhould be placed at the
head of the Ruffian forces I but whether the mestere
has been fandioned by the Emperor ALIRANDRI we
cannot undertake to fay. General Moss•u is eager
to oppofe himfelf to his great rival In military
fame, and a formal communication of his with
has been fent to Peterfbargh. The lateft intelligence
received from him finee he left England, was dated
Hambnrgh, where he was to remain but one day.
Saturday morning the Royal Cornith Miners!

George illyag. Efq. 2.74
Nr 'nags burdett 744
Mr. Pisa as ufual made his bow, and retired.
Sir FRANCIS BUILDS Tr then ilepped forward, and
addicted the Meeting to the following elle& :
Gentlemen, although you yeflerday paid to the
Candidate near me every attention which can be due
to any Gentleman who Sands forward on thefe bof-
fins, expelling, no doubt, that Mr. Math would
condefeend to gratify the curiofity which he had ex-
cited by his myficrious difcovery of the preceding
day; and, although your expeditions in that rt fix&
were difappointed, ',hope you will be more fOrttl-
sate to-day, and that he will at length indulge us
with an explanation of the manner in which he came
by that curious difcovery. The obflinacy difplaytd
by the Honourable Gentleman, in retaining his fe-
rret. reminds me of an exprellion ufed by Lattice. a
Clown, in' use of Shakelpeares plays, who being
interrogated as to a keret in his keeping, declared.
46 That a team of honks mould not pluck it from
him." Yellerday the Honourable Gentleman fa-
voured us with but one oblervation, and that not a
very gracious one, " That my fpeeches had no dial
upon him." I, however, (hall not return him Cu 1
bad a compliment as to his fpeech, for that contain.
ing the important difcovery, is the only one with
which he has favoured us, and I hope he will not
grudge me the ufe of that fpeech, as 1 and my
principles are particularly noticed in it. When I
had fomewbat recovered from the !lapels.: into
which that grand difcovery threw one, I began to
form conjectures how he could have obtained it. 111
had heard of many great men and profound philo-
fophers, who in the purfuit of one Wind.* point, at
lall (tumbled on another difcovery, probably of
equal utility or importance ; and accordingly began
to confider what grand purfuit the Hon. Gentleman
could have been engaged in when he fell on this
precious difcovery. Confidering that the Honourable
Gentleman was a Bank Director, and confidering
alfo, how valuable gold murk be to the Bank at the
prefent moment, i was fatisfied that he could have
been in putfuit of no other object than the Philofo•
pher's Hone— (/at/show and applaufes). And, Gentle
men, it mull be a confolatiou to you to think, that
whenever he than have found it, the Batik will re
fume its payments in calh—(eoroinved laughter and at.
playlet). I hope he will perfevete in his purfuit, and
though be thinks (o lightly of me, I am convinced
there is so man more likely to difcover the Philofo.
pher's Stone than the Honourable Gentleman—
(ltleeted /NIA of laughter, during which Mr. Melia
addicted himfelf to Sir Francis). The Honourable
Gentleman rays, he does not think lightly of me, but
of my principles. I thank him for the explanation.
The difcovery made by the Honourable Gentleman
reminds me of a Philofopher of a former age, cele-
brated by Ben johnfon in hit Alchymill. This per-
ion had, like Mr. Mellifb, been in purfuir of the Phi-
10f-cipher's Stone. Having fought for it in vain dur-
ing the greater part of his life, he in his old age
made a difcovery—not of the Philofopher's Stone in.
deed, but one probably more ufeful to mankind in
general—of a cure for the itch. Although the dif-
covery made by Ben johnfon's Alchymill may be
fuppofed to bear away the palm from that of the
Honourable Gentleman in point of utility, the dif-
covery of the Honourable Gentleman molt unquef.
tionably hold precedence of the other in point of in-
genuity. It mull have the merit of pleating the
learned few; and to be highly elleemed by Mr.
Bowles and his compeers—if that path man be not
peerlefs—mull he far more agreeable to Mr. Mellilh,
than to have pleafed, or endeavoured to ferve the
fwinifh multitude in general (offlaufir). No value.
ble thing, we are all aware, is procured without great
pains and labour; and the pains which we bellow in
endeavouring to attain our object, is in general the
bell criterion by which to judge how much we value
it. 8.3 Mr. Meal& may lee how much I value his
opinion, by the pains I have taken to induce him to
(tale it. But unlefs I (hall be as fortunate as he has
been and (hall be able to find out a procefs by
which unknown principles may be ladled into other
principles unkoown unlefs I (ball be ;.ble to fall on
a mode of diftilling his principles out of the Honours
able-Gentleman againfl his will, I am afraid I mutt
fail in my attempt. The Honourable Gentleman is
more prudent even than the fagacions Burleigh, in
71k Glide. Though that prudent &term% would

builds
Waterford

not give ntternrce to his feelings, be Chewed his con.
vidion that an was not right, by a fhake of the head.
Even this mark of Approbation or difapprobation
cannot be extorted from the Honourable Gentleman.
It would have been a fortunate -circumnance that
Milliners had been equally Meat. Had they been fo,
the affairs of Europe would not now have worn to
difmal an Biped. The Honourable Gentlerdan would
have, us to fuppofe, that the fira glimpfe he got into
my principles was on the day before ye(lerday. What
his own principles are he har pot, either before or
Ante that period, thought proper tq declare, and the
knowledge of them he Items inclined fill to retain
within his own break."—(Gearral opt/safer.)
Mr. Maxxlssr—., Gentlemen Freeholders, I limn
begin in my old way (a laugh) by returning thanks
foe the honour you have done me. If the fpeechea
gibe Worthy Baronet'are &muting to you, they, of
messfe, mull be gratifying to me."—(./fifir and ap.

The Meeting then adjourned till this morning at
'tight o'clock.
