'115.4 ''''PRIGHION, NeWEMB.ER 3.
The weather was so boisterous, on Friday and Satur-
day, that the PRINCE RWENT and his party were hardly
able to stir out, so his Royal Highness took exercise
on horseback in his riding-house. His Royal High.
tress had a small party and a concert, both on Fri-
day and Saturday. He intended to have gone
to Po,t,t-nouth to have reviewed the Irish mili-
tia regiments now there, and in that neighbourhood
—but yesterday he signified to the Earl of EGREMONT,
that he found it impossible to go over, as he must be
at Windsor on Thursday—and it is expected, there.
fore, that he will quit Brighton on Tuesday or Wed-
nesday.

The Flushing fleet of observation still remain in
the Downs, also a very large, fleet of merchantmen,
wind-bound.
In tLe course of Friday and Saturday, about forty
sail of vessels from the Downs took shelter in Rams-
Fate harbour, from the strong South-west gales; a
few of which have received trifling damages. There
k now in that harbour about 200 sail of all descrip-
tions.
The EURY'DICEp Captain BRARSHAW ; and Seahorse
transport, arrived at Portsmouth, on Thursday, from
Halifax. They sailed together on the 13th ult. but
parted company two days afterward. All the squa-
dron on that station had sustained some losses by tem-
pestuous weather ; and were all lying at Halifax, in
consequence, except theMELAstros and INDIAN. These
ships bring no news whatever. As little was known
at Halifax of what course the American disputes were
likely to take, as in England. Admiral SAWYER was
well at Halifax. The /EuLus, frigate, Lord JAMES
TOWNSIIEND, wotild winter there. The other ships of
the squadron would resume their stations when refitted.
M. BUNKE, Master Builder at Bermuda, came passen-
ger in the Seahorse.

Extract of a letter from Petersburg, dated Septem-
ber 22-4th October Romanzoff's influence has
unfortunately increased from the events which have
taken place this last year. He has always maintained I
that Bonaparte has no h,stile views towards this
country, and now recommends great exertions against
the Turks, even to the sending all our forces against
them. Strong measures are expected against colonial I
produce and British manufactures, for the same per-
eon has effectually convinced the Emperor that your
GoVerinnent will continue to grant, licences though
they are excluded;—The transports sent to Revel
have produced a most unfortunate effect. and have
been the subject of much.conversation. The under-
t.king a measure of such evident notoriety, is equally
the subject of wonder and derision."
The guns and principal stores have been saved out !
of the FoNfoNE frigate. .3he had 5.5,000 dollars on
buatd, which were also preserved, except about 4000,
that were taken out of a chest by some of the crew,
who also stove in the spirit casks, soon after the ship
stiuck,and drank theniselvesintoa stateof intoxication
In consequence of the late order, directing a num:
ber of Quartermen to be employed as measurers of
all work done in Portsmouth and Plymouth Dock-
yards, eight additional clerks have been entered for
the purpnse of expediting the business of the measur- I
ing department.
The remarkably fast-sailing privateer, Admiral
Martin, captured by the For :NEE and SatnaNua,
-arrived at Portsmouth on Thursday, from Cork. It
appears by her log that she has been sailing 144 knots
an hour. She is built for sailing large, but is not
adapted for carrying a heavy press of sail on a wind.
`The men on board her, on her passage to Portsmouth,
lhougheit not safe to bring her to, when the other
ships in company did do so, and therefore were com-
pelled to scud her.
The accident that happened to the Tigris, bound !
to St. Helena, which ran cn shore on the Goodwin-1
Sands, and was so much damaged as to be obliged to •
return in order to refit, is considered as peculiarly un- !
fortunate at this juncture, as the stores at that island
are almost exhausted, and the inhabitants likely to be
'reduced in consequence to a dreadful state of priva-
tion. Every exertion therefore is making to remedy
the misfortune, by fitting out another store-ship,
which will sail under protection of the AIRICAINE fri-
sate, now under orders for China.
Atur d night, about 12 o'clock, the body of a
man, much disfigured', was picked up in Ramsgate
harbour, supposed to be one of the marines who were
upset in a boat going from Deal Reach to one of the
ships of was its the Dowas some days ago.
