• RAMSGATE. M.-tCii 9
Arrived this morning the Resolution packet from
Ostend, and teveral transports for orders.

By arrivals at Pot tsmontli from Havre-de-Grace,
we learn that much exertion is now making at that
part for active warfare in the event of hostilities with
this country. A great number of privateers arc fit-
ting out there, and the following are quite prepared
for a start the moment permission is given ;—A fine
brig ef 14. guns, 6-pi:tinders, with 76 men, painted
all black ; another brig of 12 guns, 6-potind,ri, 95
men, painted black, with a white figure-head ; and
a schooner of 12 guns, 6-pounders, a very fine yes.
:.el. There is also a fine frigate on the stocks, nearly
ready to be launched. Cannon have been in:milted
nil all the batteries at Havre, and along the coast.—
Monday se'nnight, being the day appointed, all the
troops at Havre took the oath of allegiance to Bona-
parte. A Prussian ship has been detained there, by
order cf the present Government. The inscription
,4 N. 1810." was conspicuous on all the public build-
ings, particularly one of immense size on the• Pier
Head. Tne good understanding which lately stib•
sisted between the inhabitants of Havrc, and the tra-
ders from Pot !smooth, has cease 1, and they itow show
the gretttest coolness to the English, we may sty
hostility, and they seize every opportunity of incelt-
ing them. It is a sati,faction to know that ere!zers
from Portsmouth are active and keep is good look-out
on the opposite coast.
Saturday morning the SWIFTSUftE, 74 guns, Cap-
tain Wenn', arrived at Portsmouth front the Lee-
ward Islands, which she left in crimpany with la
Piquz, Captain Hon A. NIAIITAND; MnQ•2ITo,
Captain ToMKINwN ; and HERoN, Captain ANNEA-
t.e.Y, having in charge 92 sail of merchantmen. The-
SWIFTSERR left Barbadoes on the 14th, and St.
I Thomas's on the '27th of February. The Ilea had a
fair wind during the whole of the passage, thou ,h it
often blew excessively hard ; the brig Ann foend‘red
in one of the gales, after the crew had been taken oat.
IThe BRAZEN arrived at Barbadoes early in February
from England, with the news of Peace having: been
concluded with America; she went on to Jamaica.—
The 14th Regiment had arrived at Barbadoes from
North America. It will afford sincere gratification
to hear, that all the Leeward Islands, as well as the
ships on the station, were particularly healthy. Tilt
PIQIne saw the, ships bound to the Bristol chonnes
(she arrived at Portsmouth on Friday) ; the HERON
parted with the trade for the Clyde ; the Swirl-was
and MUSQUITOt with the remainder of the convoy, for
the River, came up • Channel. Captains M'Cuu.oc
sad Luxe, R.N. came home ia the thruzsuas

DISTURBANCES AT DARTMOOR PRISON.

Friday last, a most serious array took place at
Dartmoor Prison, where the American pri,:oners of
war are confined. It appears, that the unfortunate
prisoners, who'amlunt to five or s'x thousand, had
recently become extremely impatient to be et at li-
berty, and ascribed their detention to M. BEAZLEY,
their countryman, who is agent for American pri-
soners of war in London. This person they burnt
in effigy on Friday, and then proceeded to force their
way out of the confiaes of the prison. Captain
SHORTLAND., the resident Briti:h agecit, %%cut in
among them alone and unarmed, to endeav,,ur to
pacify them, but a pistol was snapped at him, and
therefore the soldiers fired among the insurgents,
when about twelve were killed and thirty w )unlcd.
A musket-ball grazed Captain SUMMAND% cheek.
The prompt interference of the military quelled the
insurrection, and tranquillity was rev r; t. One
hundred additional soldiers marched morn Plym r•ith
to Dartmoor in the -Arum of Friday, to te;trit.a,. tart:
guard.
