That wed-known Gentleman at all the Subscription
Houses in St. James's street, Sir Tawas Srmity, Ban. died

A Milan Gazette announces the arrival, in Rome, of
the Duke of Kazoo; " one of the Peers of Scotland who fol.
lowed the fortunes of the Scutum. and was Cosidaviss of Card!.
nal BERM at the time of the election of Pope Pies Vl."—We be-
lieve it will puzzle all the Scotch Heralds to find out who this
Duke of MILFORT is. We confess we cannot divine whets alluded
to, and are inclined to suspect that the Gazette writer has assumed
a privilege, which even his Balmy= Masan. does not possess--
the creation of a Scotch Peer.

FRENCH FLEET IN THE !VEST IVEIES.
The following is an extract of a letter which was re-
ceived yesterday at the Jamaica C' fee brute.
" Kingston, Jamaica, July 13.
" The Scout sloop of war, Captain Wigston, which arrived at
Part Royal yesterday, from Barbadoes and St. Thomas's (the last
in seven days), has brought information that a French Beet, con.
sitting of eighteen vessels, with pennants flying, and several trans-
ports, having troops on board, had • sailed from Martinique for
Cuba, to take possession of that island for and in the name of the
King of Spain, so as to prevent its failing into the hands of the Co-
nobians'or Mexicans. Official information to that effect is said to
e been communicated officially by the French Coniul at St.
" as's to the Governor of that island.
he Hussar frigates Captain Harris, was dispatched this
mo ng, by Admiral Halsted, it Is said, to put dispatches on
board the Rinaldo packet, which sailed yesterday-for England ; and
the frigate will afterwards proceed to the coast of Cuba, to ascer-
tain at what porta the French will land; St. Jago, Trinidad, and tie
Havannah are those conjectured here. The Thracian sloop of war
sails in the morning fur .Enghnd with dispatches, and will touch at
Havannab, no doubt, to ascertain it-sof of the feet have ar-
rived there."
(This intelligence is much weakened, if not deprived of all credit,
by the fact that the Thracian, after touching at l lavarnah, which
she left on the 2.141 of July, has since arrived at Purtsitrath,
states that she saw nothing of thif fleet. The French squadron is
that which was last heard of at Port-au-Prince].

Mr. BRGUOKAM has been edjoying the amusement of
grouse shooting in Westmoreland after the labours of the Nor-
thern Circuit.

M. GIBEAU, the AttOrney-General for the Court of
Cassation in Park, was seated on the Bench yesterday,
with R. J. CHAMBERS, Esq. at Union Hall, and seemed
to take great interest in the proceedings. He remarked
that the mode of dispatching business before the English
Police Magistrate, differed •ery materially front the
manner in which it was conducted in France.
Advice* 'to the 18th July, received from Sierra
Leone, afford proof of the persevering activity with
which the hateful traffic in buinan beings is still car-•
ried on by men who disgrace civilization. A vessel
laden with slaves was met with at set in distress by the
Roxburgh Castle, East Indiaman, which took posses-
sion of her, and carried her into Sierra Leone. The
Judicial Commission, which is permanently established
there, will no doubt do justice to the parties engaged
in the illegal trade: and, what is more gratifying, the
unfortunate beings who had been dragged into capti-
vity will be restored to freed,.m, and instructed in civi-
lization and religion.
Workmen are busily employed in erecting a hand-
some bridge over the Serpentine, at the eastern extre-
mity of Kensington Gardens ; which, when completed,
will add greatly to the beauty and convenience of
Hyde Park.
The St. Katharine Dock Company have already com-
menced proceedings, preparatory to the clearing of the

The celebrated Mademoiselle FA XIII BIAS died cn
Saturday morning, at'Paris, after a long illness.
The Insclvent Debtors' Court tat yesterday for a
short time, to hear motions for leave to file petitions,. Sze.
—Several applications were made by Mr. CooaE, for
large sums of money to be paid out of Court for assig-
nees fur distribution, which were granted as matters of
course. At its rising, the Court adjourned to the 19th
inst. when the regular Sittings will be resumed. •
BOWMORE (ISLAY), AUG. 20.0 n the evening of 5...
turdiy last, as one of the small packets that ply between
here and Glasgow was rounding the neck of land- on
the east side of the island, where a number of strong
currents meet, and are called the Moil of Nalsoi or
Kirmought, remarkable for its swell of surge and
danger of navigation in stormy weather, a seaman,
the only hand exclusive of the master, who was
between sixty and seventy years of age, was so
exhausted with the fatigue of the preceding night, t'et
he lay down in their little boat, which was draw
upon deck, and insensibly fell asleep. In a short
time after, a billow came rolling over the vessel, ,and
swept himself and his couch overboard. The boat fell
on her bottom in the sea, and being unfired,sailed swiftly
with the tide towards a rock that projects into the ocean
a considerable distinct from the shore, and rises to
the height of eighty or ninety feet perpendicular.—
The poor fellow, seeing his danger, was observed to
stand up and wave his hand for assistance, but soon
after his little bark was dashed to pieces against the
rocks, and he was never seen. more. He has hit a wife
and family, to the number of eight, to lament his loss.
