Lissom, Auc. 4.—The Port convoy, meriting of
55 fail, are all fate in the Douro.
There has been a ferious tumult among the foldi:rs
here. It kited four days, during which many lives
were 1011. There difturbances originated in a difpute
between two of the regular regiments quartered here
and the regiment of police guards; but, at length,
by the fpinted behaviour of the latter, and particu-
larly of a detachment commanded by a French Lori-
grant of the name of Noviow, order was raored,
though the populace feconded the regular foldiers.
One of the regiments, commanded by Don Gomez
Far silt% is banilbed to Cafcaes, and its Commander
is confined in the Tower. On the 3d inft. however,
the city was in a Rate ct tranquillity ; but the pre-
caution had been taken by Government to double the
police guards and patroles.
Letters from Spain notice the preparations which

A French Meifengencrrather a Miner through
France, arrived yeßerday morning. Letters have
thus been received from France, but chiefly, we be.
lieve, from the towns on the toga and neighbour-
hood of Calais.
By a (private letter, for the authenticity of which

we can pledge ourfelves, it appears, that notwith-

Banding the little attention which the French Go-
vernment has for tome time paa paid to its ruined
Navy, confiderable exertions are n•w making to
place their naval effabliihment on a refpeaable foot-
ing. Betides the Bo gun fhip lately launched at
Toulon, four fail of the line of at 'calk 74 or Eto guns,
are now on the Rocks in the dock yard of that place,
together with two large frigates. The Swayrsuas,

which was captured during the laft war in the Medi-
terranean, is in dock there, and about to receive a

complete repair.
Another letter Rates, that the greatell exertions
are making at Toulon in building (hips, and that
the keels of half a dozen of large (hips, of at lean
So gone, are ordered to be laid down immediate-
ly. Upwards of 3000 galley eaves, and about the
Came number of workmen, are daily employed ei-
ther in the dock yard, or on the fortifications, which
are putting in the heft (late of defence poffible. The
garrifon, it is (aid, confide of sOOO men.
The fame letters Rate that the French have Soo°
troops at Genoa.
Letters from Captain HOTHAIK repeat, it is (aid,
Lis having received intelligence that the labours of
boat.building and of equipping two fail of the line
in Holland, had been countermanded by orders from
the Sativian Government. The reafon of this is Laid
to be, that they are in want- of fuitable materials.—
We do not, however, vouch for the truth of the fiat e-
meat.

We learn, by letters from Dublin, received this
morning, that Robert Emmet, who it is fuppofed
was on: of the chief inftigators of the late ittfur-
ration, and after whom much (catch had been
made, was arrened on Thurfday laft by Major SIM
We are happy to add, that every thing remains
quiet in Dublin, where feverial :other perfons who
were aslive in the late diaurbance have been taken up.
44 DWIBL/N, AUG. 26.—Yellerday Redmond, of the
Coal quay, in whore houfe pikes were found, under-
went an examination by the Privy Council, and while
it was going on, a detachment of the Linnen-hall
Corps, led by two aidsde-camp, fearched every houfe
in Great Ship-greet for come Forum againft whom,
it is fuppofed, Redmond gave inf,rmation. But, which
is more important, lechers Emma, after whom Aria
(earth has been making, was arrelled ye fierday evening
at Harold's trots by Major SIRk. He attempted to
&ape and was very near doing fo.—l troll his arreft
will lead to important difcoveries. Major SlItR was in-
duced to arta bins by his affumpti on of falfe names
and other circnmaances, but actually did not know
it was Emmet he had, until identified by Mr. nilr

a Fellow of the College. The loyalty of this City is
much exhilinted by the arra of this man, whu, it is
fuppofed, was at the bottom of the intimation.

4, This is the only important news I have to com-
municate—of a minor urea I have to mention that
of one of the men =acid of having attempted to
afraffinate Mr. Cca air I, a Magitimte. on the (hocking
evening of the 3341 July bit, as re paired through the
Caftle-yard, under an efcort of the Palmerttown
Yeomanry: he had the prefumption to &lute Mr.
CLARK I, who happened to be (landing in the Court
with fome friends.

We are very quiet.—This day Donnybrook Fair
commenced, but Government has taken every pre.
caution, that it (hall not be made inftramental to the
interruption of the public tranquility."

the port of t ampbehown, have unanimouflr refolvech
independent of the individual offers of military fir-
vices made by a great number of them, that the
whole (hipping belonging to the port, confining of

A man with a raree (how flopped to exhibit, one
day laft week, on Laucathire Bridge, Stockport, and
a crowd of people, as ufual, gathered about him.—
Amongft the ref, a Volunteer wifhed to have a peep
at what was going on infide t he paid his halfpenny,
and applied his eye so the glafs. The flow man had
fbewn our hero half the fine cities in the world, and
at length came to Paris—,, There (laid he) is the
famous City of Paris ; and there you fee the great
Bowareary haranguing his troops for the inrafion
of England." The indignant foldier could contain
hirnfelf no longer—his fury was roofed at the fight of
his notorious enemy ; in an inflant *he grafped the

world, with Bona AAAAA and his troops, over the

his troops drowning, and be damned to them."

The Hull Paper of Friday laff, received yeller-
day, gives the following extras of a letter from Ja-
maica, dated Wellmoreland, June 26. " The Hun-
ter man of war arrived a day or two ago with the
difagrecable news of our being once more at war with
the French ; on her paffage out (he took a French
merchant fbip and brought her into Port Royal. A
Plot was lately laid in Kinglion by the people of co.
our, to fet the city on fire, and in the confufion to
maffacre the whole of the white inhabitants ; and the
fame deßrultion was intended for Spanifh town.—
Some of the eonfpirators have been hung, and it is
thought many more will fuffer the fame fate."

Another letter from Jamaica, dated July 4, (fates'
as follows :--44 The French have abandoned the
ifland of St. Domingo to the Blacks, who now reign
vietorioully there, and hold out a dreadful example
to this colony. And, accordingly, a few days ago,
a confpiracy was dircovered in a miraculous manner
among the negroes of this Mend. A Have having
difpleafed his mailer, was fent to the houfe of correc-
tion. His companions knowing he was in the fecret
of their plot, and fearing he might confers, fent him
Tome viltuals which were poifoned. The natutpeß-
ing negro ate of the vitluals ; when finding the poi-
(on began to operate, and knowing whence it came,
enraged at the treachery of his companions, be con-
feTed the plot which they had laid to fet fire to King-
Ron, and mafracre every white inhabitant. If they
had fucceeded in this, their intention teems to have
been to proceed in the extermination of all the whites
in the Wand. Some of them have already paid the
forfeiture of their lives, and we are now quiet, but
Rill under apptehenfions. The inhabitants of this
ifland have reafoa to elide the day tity ever received
the fugitive Frcncb Blacks from St. Domingo ; for
they hake poifoned the minds of our Blacks with
their revolutionary principles. There things, com-
bined with the war, have depreciated the value of
negro and leaded property. Our Wand papers of yef-
terday announce the capture of two French frigates,
full of troops. They se..re bound to Guadaloupe, but
art carried into Barbadoes."
