TEE Apr KING OF SWEDEN.

Among the wounded prisoners taken in a sortie'
from the fortress of Cuddalore, was a young French
Serjeint, who so particularly attracted the notice of
Colonel Wasuosaustm, commandant of the Hanove-
rian troops in the English service, by his interesting
appearance and mannerp, that he ordered the yonng
nian to be conveyed to his own tents, where he was
treated vith attention and kindness until his recovery
and release. Mary years afterwards, when the French
army under BraNArtorrt entered Hanover, General
WANENHEINI, among others, attended the levee of
the Conquctor.—" You have served a great deal,"
said Beananoert, on his being presented, " and as
I understand, in India?"—" I have served there."—
" At Cuddalorer—" It was there."—" Have you
any recollection of a wounded serjeant sv.lom )
took ur.der your protection in the course of that ser-
vice?"—The circumstance was not immt‘liately pre-
sent to the General's mind ; but on recollection he
resumed—" I do, indeed, recollect the circumstance;
and a very fine young man he was: I have eatirely
lest sight of him ever since, but it would give me
mach pleasure to hear of his welf.tr.i."—" That
you serjeant," replied Btase.oorrt, was the per-
son svho has now the honour or addressing you—
who is happy in this public opportunity cf ackr,ow-
!edging the obliga, ion, and will omit no trelr s thin
his power of testifying his gratitude to Cieneral WA-

Dts-rnssarn SEAME,;.—On board the Dromedary,
the ship appropriated for the reception of the sick,
among the poor seamen lately rescued by public
bounty from the streets, there is now, in a state of ill
health, a young negro woman, who, in the attire of
a man, was received by the Committee of Manage-
ment, among other objects of distress, without being
aware of her sex. The secret, however, has since
transpired, and the Committee are now acquainted
with it. She goes by the name of Smith—seems
about twenty-eight years of age, and is said to have
served fourteen years at sea, pet forming the most
Active duties of a seaman, eight of whidi were passed
in one of his Nlaiesty's ships. Her colour and fea-
tures are those of the perfect Negro, her fipure rather
slight, and her voice so feminine, that it is somewhat
surprising she was not discovered before.

The very great satisfaction the plan adopted in for.
min- Lotteries gave to persons rcsidir. 0 Y in the Country,
has induced T. Bisit, the Contractor, to repeat it in
