The Ruffian American Company continues to
Five more and more extent to this branch of eons-
*Dem, which, in time, will undoubtedly become
of high importance to Ruffia. It is now employ-
•d in a plan which is of the greateft confequence,
not only to the trade, but alto to the honour of
Ruffle. It is going to fit oat two !hips which are
to fail from this place with a cargo of provifions,
anchors, cables, rigging, &c. to fail round the
Southern extremity of America, acrofs the South
Sea, to the North Weft Coall of America, and the
Aleutian Inands, to fupply the Ruffian ettabhih-
menu there, with thee neceffaries—take in a car-

go of furs, to be bartered in China for Chinefe
goods—to make by the way an eftablifhnient at
Urup, one of the moft Southerly of the Kurile
Iflands, for the greater convenience of the trade
to Japan ; and then to return from China by the
Cape of Good Hope. The Chips will be wholly
maimed with RuMaas,*and the Emperor,' who,
highly approves of the plan, has ordered that the
heft officers and Tailors of the navy may be em-
ployed in the expedition.
As this is the firft voyage round the world un- j!
dertaken by Ruffians, no pains are (pared to afture
to the expedition a 'happy refult. The command
of the flips is given to Capt. KILUIRISTRIII, whO
bas been long in the Eat Indies, and was the firft
propofer of the plan. For the formation of the

Of 10,000 roubles : Ee is alto to fuperintend there

will fail on their voyage from that port in Oc.
sober.

Lemwig, in. North Jutland, fays—a The night of
Augult 9th will be long remembered by us. The
day had been uncommonly hot, towards evening
the fky was darkened by a thunder-fiorm, coming
from the feu. The lightning was fo ineeffant, that
the heavens teemed in one continued blaze ; and
many foreboded the arrival of the Day of Judg-
ment, or at leaf& the entire deftrudion of Lemwig
by fire. The thunder-ftorm.lafled two hours and
a half, and was fucceeded by a dreadful hail ; the
Rones being of the !Ise of a pullet's egg. The
damage done to the corn, as far as the hail ex.
tended, being a circle of about four or five English
miles, is dreadful the whole country where it
paired prefents a fcene of dcfolation. A remark-
able Phenomenon during this tempest was, that
while the lightning feuned the arongea, we heard
an unufual hiffing in the air, which refembled the
noife of a multitude of large birds taking flight."

On Wednefday the Lords Commillioners of the
Admiralty and Navy Board, proceeded to the
Dock Yard, Plymouth, 'to make their final ar-
rangements previous to their quitting that place,
which they were to leave ye fterday for Portfmouth.
It is again stated that the caufe of Gen.LAlNte

inning upon examining his baggage. The Ge-
neral was indignant, and in .a letter to M. PINTO,
the Portugueze Minifter, peremptorily binned on
the difmitfal of thole officers, or be should leave
Lilon. M. de PINTO endeavoureskto reconcile
him to the nfages of the country, but in vain.
The number of new Members elated on thepart
of Ireland to the Imperial Parliament, is twenty-
, fevers, of whom eleven are for counties, one for the
city of Dublin, and the reft for boroughs.

There have been but nine conceits, in three of
which the fnccefsful Candidates are younger mem-
bers of the LAI-mica family. ,
Two fail of the line arrived on the sad ult. at
Breit from St. Domingo,but the intelligence which
they brought has not-been publithed.
About 'half pal fix yetterday afternoon, part of
the parapet on the top of one of the embrafures of
St. Duntlan's Church, Fleet-greet, weighing near-
ly two hundred weight, by fome accident gave
way, and fell on the pavement. Unluckily a poor
foldier, paffing at the time, was very much Burt
by the rebounding of the fragments of this ?miry
gone, which hruifed his right foot in fuch a man-
ner as, without amputation, will endanger his life.
Wednefday night a fire broke ont in the (tables
of Gerrard's Hall, Bating-lane, which confumed a
quantity of hay and ilraw contained therein, be.
fides materially injuring the premifes. Of ten
honks which were in the (tables, three fell viaims
to the flames, and the remainder were with diffi-
culty laved.

On Sunday fc'nnight in the evening, an alarm-
ing fire broke nut in the iron works of Meas. Jar-
rat, Dawfon, and Hardy, at the Low Moor, near
Bradford. It burnt with great fury, and foon
reached the roof of their great ca houfe, which
falling in, of courfc deftroyed the cranes, &c. con-
neaed with it ; but owing to the calmnefs of the
evening, and the aaive exertions of the numerous
workmen who were foon afembled, it was pre-
vented from extending beyond the building where
it was at firft difcovered. Happily no lives were
loft, nor any perfon hurt.

The Gentleman who had Co fingnlar an efcape
from being dallied to pieces at Broadflairs, as men-
tioned in this Paper of yefterday, was Capt. LaiNo
of the army. The following are the particulars of
this remarkable circumftance.—On Saturday laft,
the Captain, who, with his mother, has lodgings
at Broadftairs, driving his gig down the road from
St. Peter's, into the village, the animal, by come
accident, took fright in coming down the hill, ran
with great violence pall the corner in the open
greet, and took for the Parade on the beach, which
is diratly oppofite. In the fmall diftance between 1
the high road and the Parade is au lion bar placed
acrofs the railing, to prevent carriages pall ng ;
the Captain, knowing this railing, crouched in the 1
chaife, which paired within an inch of the top, and
of his head ; within four yards was the cliff, on
the edge of which was.a lirong railing, upon reach.
ing which the horfe made a bold leap over it, but
the ftrong poll of the railing caught one of the
wheels of the chaife, by which means the Ihaftsl
were broken off lhort, the horfe and harnefs pre-
cipitated into the tea, and the chaife and driver
left behind. I; is moll happy for Mr. LAING thin
the e horfe attempted to leap the, railing when he
came to it; for had he on the contrary forced him.
felt againft it, it would eafily have given Way, and
inevitable deftruition to him would have been the
confequence ; as' it was, Mr. Laiso efcaped with.
out the leaft inj 4. The chaife. was broken, and
the poor a' . was jiillift a$ ibs bot-
