" By letters froth Paris vie underhand that Count
TAIIRSINIERG, being there on his route from Vi.
enna to London, received an order from the French
Government to quit the territory of the French
Republic, in twenty-four hours."—True Briton.
A private letter from Paris, dated Noietnber
17, lays, " The FIRST CONSUL Rill purfues his la-
bours with very little relaxation. The day before
yefterday he took the diverfion of the chace ; but,
in the midft of it, he *as thrown from his horfe,
and fell upon his head. His companions were
greatly alarmed for his fafety, as he remained for
tome time without motion • he was merely funned
by the fall, and had received no perfonal injury.—
The fah was, that his mind being occupied with
other matters, very different from that in which
be was engaged, he clung but mechanically, as it'
were, to his bode, and was flung from his feat by
a fudden fining of the animal. In a fimilar fate
of mind, he narrowly efcaped a few days before
from being, overturned into a deep ditch, when
taking the air with Madame BONAPIRTS in mop=
carriage " •
Dr. VIN cr NT was on Saturday lah prefented by
the Ring's fcholari, and the town boys of Weft-
toinfter School, with two pieces of plate, Of the
value of 120 guineas each, with fishable infcrip •
tions,expreffive of their efteem and affedion, and
of the high credit with which he refigned the chair.
The damages which the Steam Engine Houfe,
belonging to the Tunnelunder the Thames,fuflain-
ed by the late unfortunate fire, have been repaired,
and on Sanardry lett the works again commenced.
It 4 laid that the Mitch Government has re-
ceived a letter from their-Conful at Barcelona,
dated the sd ult. intimating them that the Spanifh
Government have juft iffued an edid, prohibiting
the importation of all foreign fluffs and cotton
threads ; that all thole articles which come from
?vies the Phili*nes, and the Spann Colonies
itt America (ball pay no duty. Unfpun cotton,
the produce of the Ifland of Malta, is not to be
comprifed in this prohibition : it is to pay a duty
sa per cent. The quantity of foreign cotton
(nff which are now in Spain, is to be fated to
the Intendants of the Ctthou:s. If that quantity
be not confumed in the fpace of a year, it is to be
erpotted from Spain, under the penalty of leisure
and coutfcation.

MSITIIIO ov SHIP OWNsits.—A,General Meet-
ing was held yeflerday, at the London Tavern.
The Committee appointed to wait on Mr. Ark.
worom reported, that their reception was very
flattering, and gave them hopes (though the Pre-
mier had not altogether made up his mind) of a
favourable Ate. A petition is in the mean time
to be prepared, and prefented to Parliament after
the holidays.
Another General Meeting is to be held in a few
days, when the fubjea of Mediterranean pares will
be Wien into conlideration. The penalty of Soot.
for failing through the Streights without the docu-
ment, it feems, has been lately enforced, a degree
of feverity, perhaps, very falutary, but quite un-
expelled, and without any precedent.
Mifs DECANT is fo ferioufly ill as to be attended
by three Phylicians.—Mrs. MOUNTAIN takes her
CharaCter in the Houfe to be Sold.
Mrs. MATTOCKS was fuddenly taken ill yeller-
daband an apology was lail night made at Covent-
Garden Theatre for her inability to perform her
Pitt of Curivfo, in The Cablart. The part was there-
fore taken at a short warning by Mrs. BITSZLE,T,
tie filler of Mifs CHAP 'S. Mrs. Bev tam ac-
quitted herfelf very well in the part, even without
we confederation of the little time fhe had to pre-
pare for it. The Opera attracted a crowded houfe,
and went off with its ufual fume& &AMASS had
moil of his fongs encored
Mr. Foors's Hankt was received on Tuefday
4iZht, for the fecond time, with very flattering ap-
plaufe. He is certainly well entitled to a perma-
nent fituation in the Th.- tre, as his talents are
highly refpeflable. Of Mrs. Jimmy's Othefsa we
need fay little more than that the acquitted herfelf
withal] thole fakinations which have fo deferredly
commanded the admiration of the public.
