Extra& of a letter from on board his Majefly's
flip DEFIANCE, dated off Copenhagen, April 4,
acit.—" I fuppofe ere this you will-have heard of
our anion. We were commanded by the good
and gallant little Hero of the Nile, with his flag
in the ELEPHANT, accompanied by the following
(hips, viz. D s FIANCI) EDGAR, ARDENT, GLATTON,
ISIS, AGAMEMNON, BILLONA, GANGES, MONARCH,
Russet, and POLY P H im us ; Tome of them not get-
ing into anion, made it fell heavier on thole that
did. The DEFIANCE was a-breaft of their great
Crown battery, and from Tome of the other (hips
not getting up, made it fall heavier on the MONARCH
and-D MARCIE; who were next to the MONARCH and
northward of her, and from the Ross& and Pot r-
PRIMUS not getting up, we were the lail fhip in the
line. This is faid to be the atoll bloody and dar-
ing attack ever made by our worthy and gallant
NELSON. Our enterprifing and gallant Admiral
(Chaves) of this fhip, was applied for by Lord
Netsmt t 3 be with him, knowing him to have a
foul every way c,--igenial to his own, and who like
himfeif, in tinies.ot danger, has fire and energy
which riles in proportion to the difficulties that are
in view.—The floating batteries, hulks, and flips
were formidable, as well frc.m thcir number as
weight of metal, but Rill more fa from their fitua-
tion and proximity to the fhore, their having means
of heating fhot, which they fired the whole of the
anion, and from their being covered by numerous
bomb and gun batteries on (bore, which alfo fired
red hot ;hot at us, by which we wei e often on fire.
—This anion is univerfally thought to be unequal-
led for its length and obllinacy. The loft of the
enemy was dreadful. The MONARCH, and this
fhip, fuffered moll ; but as our situation was (till
more tippled than the MONARCH, who was next
to us; it is a matter of wonder that we had only
yo killed and wounded badly ; there were a veil
number of flight wounds, not mentioned in our re-
turn, who will be able to go to quarters in a few
days. If we could have got elute to the enemy. I
am perfuaded, we (hould have done their bufinefs
in an hour, which is the fifth part of the time we
were engaged. I hope when we get hold of the
Ruffians, we (hall not be prevented from getting
doff to them, and then, with the blcffing of GOD,
we (ball make fliort work of it.—Eight fail of ate
large (hips were more than five miles from us, and
at the beginning of the anion three of our (hips
got agrutind, and the fire of the enemy was heavy
be)ond conception, which made the event doubt-
ful ; but our glorious Commanders, Netson and
Gaavae, contained the anion with taint, and

COURT OP RING's BENCH.

Yellerday being the firft day of Eager Term, Lord
KEN rot., and his brother Judges took their feats
on the bench about nine o'clock. After the ufual
report had been made concerning the convils at
W oolwich,
Mr. ATTOILNIT GitlitAL moved, that Thomas
Spence might be charged with an information
which he had filed againft him, for the publica-
tion of a malicious and feditious libel, refpeding
the right of property in land. The objet of this
publication was to (hew that all the oppreftion
and diftrefs that at prefent prevailed in the coun-
try were owing to the proprietors of land ; and
that in order to remedy thefe evils, it was indif-
penfibly neceffary that the prefentfyftem of landed
property fhould be completely exterminated, and
that all the land in the kingdom fhould be equally
divided among all the inhabitants of the Hand
without diftindion. This the authorconfiders as the
only effetituallcure of Monopolies, Foreftalling, Re-
grating, &c. Although at firit fight it appeared
difficult to be accomplifhed, yet in fad nothing
was fo eafy. It might be efeded in the courfe of
a tingle day. As the ALMIGHTY Paid- ." Let
there be light, and there was light ;" fo the Pub-
lic had only to lay--., Let the laud be ours and it
would be Co."

When the information was read to the Defen-
dant, he pleaded—Not Guilty ; and Will be tried
at the Sittings after Term.

Mr. ERIKINR moved for leave to file a criminal
information againft Mr. George Hofkins, suer.
chant in Liverpool, for a libel. He Rated, that
the Commiffioners of the Income Tax, having
fummoned Mr. Hofkins to make a return of his
income, he did fo, and his return Rated that he
was willing to pay one-tenth part of his income.
The Commiffioners having reafon to fuppofe he
meant to fabtratt from his income, fummoned him
to attend the Board; inftead of doing fo he treated
them with contempt, and they were obliged to
alters him according to the bell of their judgment ;
this he fubmitted to pay, and did not chufe to
ap-
peal. On the following year he delivered in a
declaration of the furn he intended to pay, much
below what he paid the former year, and in that
declaration, charged the Commiffioners with hav-
ing, while he was neceffiated to attend thedeath-
bad of his father, been guilty of grofs enikonduet.
by having moil iniquitoufly furcharged him. It
was for this libel on the Commiffioners. that Mr.
Erskine faid he was direlted by them to apply to
the Court for a rule.—Rule granted.
Several other motions were made, but none of
any intereft to the public.
