BRIGHTOY, 7,fhr. x 2.

The Subfcription Ball on Monday was not Co
fAfh;onably attended as was expeCtcd. The dif-
ueftlng dullneis of the place daily increafes. The
molt diaant country village may now claim an
almoft equal degreee of attraftion. Not a tingle
place of amufement is at prefent open ; the public
walks are entirely deferred—the inns are empty—
the libraries appear folitary and chcerlefs, and the
ftreets exhibit no veflige of their late gaiety.
A French boat, loaded with rags, arrived here
at fix o'clock P. M. yellerday. The boat, with
three men, left Boulogne two days before, bound
for Shoreham, which place they expelled to reach
at molt in twelve hours. A Ilrong breeze, liow
ever, from the North, fpringing up, when they
were about half feas over, proved the fallacy of
their calculation, and kept them toiling about
upon the tempelluous billows, in great /Jibes, for
nearly eight and forty hours longer than they had
prepared themfelves to expel. Their bread and
Tea-flock, which were but very trifling, were un-
fortunately wafted overboard loon after the gale
commenced; fo that thepoor Frenchmen, on their
landing here, were nearly famifted and worn out
with fatigue.
The Prince's harriers on Monday threw off near
Portflade Windmill, but very few fportfmen were
prefent. A bag fox was *turned out by Knight's
ails, before Mr. H. NEWNHILM'S hounds, of New-
timber, the fame morning. The field difplayed
upwards of fifty horfemen, and many of rank, to
enjoy the diverfion which Rcynard promifed to
bellow. The morning, though the wind blew &eft
from the North, was not altogether unfavourable,
and Reynard, on being expoled to his purfuers,
went off in a capital (Lyle, taking a North Falk
direttion ; he gaffed Mr. DREW'S barn, and took
over Barncombe-hill, where, inclining to the left,
he loon after croffed the Honfield-mad, took the
whole length of the Downs by the Devil's Dyke,
dallied through the Furze-field at Southwick, and
made brifkly for Mr. &roc s r.'s Plantation, where
the dogs being hard at his brunt, he nearly
threadled the cover, croffed by New Shoreham
Church, and flood on for Erringhamlhaw, but
being headed by a (hepherd's dog, ere he could
gain his point, he turned fuddenly off to the left,
and boldly took to the river, a fliort dillance
above Old Shoreham Bridge, the hounds follow-
ing him through the water in the molt fpirited
and handfome manner. Unfortunately the tide
being at flood, the current was fo thong, that
Reynard's attempts to reach the oppofite fhore
proved fruitlefs, the dogs furrounding him about
the centre of the River, fpeedily terminated his
life, and then left his body to the fport of the wind
and tide. The fportfmen in general were highlly
fatisfied with the morning's diverfion; an hour
and thirty-five minutes they had run, without
check ; the only regret expreffed was by tome in-
trepid riders, who at all Mks had determined, if
poffible, to be in at .the death, that cireumflancek
would not admit of their gallantly difputing the
honour of the brufli.

Poor TOUSIaIIIT is revenged; but probably it
norant of the events, which have returned the pot.
foned chalice to the lips of the French General, he
pines in defpair in the dungeons of opprellion.

General Frog, preceded by Barrer, has entered
the metropolis in a moll aril* kyle; and if he wants
provifions, he has provided a plenty of chop.

On Monday evening a gentleman gave a rout
at his houfe in Dover-fireet, and when the corn.
pany was affembled, two men genteely dreffed
knocked at the door with a degree of confequence,
and had by Tome means learnt the name of a gen-
tleman who was to have been of the party, and
Paid they were the gentleman's particular friends,
who had defired them to call to apologize to the
Lady for his nonattendance, and while the fes-
vane was up [lairs with the mefige, they made
off with pelaces, muffs, hats, &c. belonging to the
company to a ccnfiderable amount, with which
they made their cfcape. All the gentlemen loft
their hats but one.

Many very refpeftable Ladies and Gentlemen •
have, from different caufes, neglefted to learn the
accompliffiment of Dancing, molt of whom mua
be defirous of acquiring it, if they could learn its
a more private and expeditious way than ufual.—
Such will find Mr. Axt.sm's private Dancing Aca-
demies, No. 19, Sherrard-greet, Golden-A:ware.
and No. to, Great Alie-greet, Goodman's Fields.
exaftly (irked to their willies, efpecially as the fiylc
of Dancing taught there is the molt elegant poffible.
According to the ftatement of Dr. lisasaoss,
in the Philotophical Tranfaftions for the year,
1796, the number of deaths in the very mild
months of January and February that year, were
fcarcely half Co many as in the fame months of
the preceding year, which were very fevere. And
the Doftor very ftrongly reprtfcnts the neceffity of
our wearing warmer cloathing than is generally
worn, in order to guard us more effeflually from
the deadly effects of cold. We recommend to the
perufal of all confederate perfons a valuable Chap-
ter on the fubjeft of Clothing in Vol 11. of the 4th
edition of the Philofophy of Medicine, lately pub-
'jibed by the very refpeflable Dr. Tilos wrow.—
Indeed Count RONFORD and the fiat Philofopherb
concur in opinion with the Phyficians, that man-
kind in general very greatly err in not wearing
clothing of fufficient warmth ; and they arc alfo
agreed that woollen underclothing, as being the
moll wholefome, ought to be univerfally worn ;
and that, for this porpore, there is nothing com-
parable to Fleecy Holier'', either in :Ana 19
wholefomeads or comfort.
