KENT—GRAVESEND AND MILTON.
AT a Special Court Burghmote holden in the
Town Hall of the CORPORATION of GRAVESEND
end MILTON, on Wednesday the Bth day of August, 1810,
THOMAS JOHNSON, Esq. Mayor,
This Court (having learnt, with deep regret, that Captain
SAIIIVEL MoTvLav, of the Royal Navy, after. a residence of
seven yeazi in the town, as Regulating Officer" in the Impress
service, is about to quit that station,) have thought it fit to offer
a public testimonial of the high opinion so justly entertained of
bim by every class of the Inhabitants.
Resolved therefore Unanimously, that the Thanks of the
Court be given to Captain Moitt.av, for the promptness with
eshish, upon all occasions, he has rendered aid to the Civil
Power; for his exemplary zeal in the Public Service, and for his
Inflexible Integrity ; qualities, by whieh be has sufficiently ,hewn
that the duty of an office, naturally and unavoidably arduous,
Intricate, and, in some degree, unpopular, may (in the hands of
an honourable and intelligent Man) be so discharged, that, whilst
ft gives to the Public abundant cause of Satisfaction, it leaves to
Individuals no reasonable ground of complaint.
Ordered, That the above Resolutions be advertised, and a
Copy delivered to Captain MOTTLIY, together with the Free-
dom of the Corporation, which is hereby voted to, and con.
hued upon him.—By the Court, EVANS, Town Clerk.

The most important intelligence that has for a
tong period been received from the Continent retpec-
ting commercial affairs, reached London yesterday,
by a vessel from France. NAPOLEON, for some rea-
son or other, has at length rescinded in substance,
though not in form, the Berlin and Milan Decrees,
by a new commercial arrangement, announced in the
ifonikur of the 7th Instant, in the following

Council for the
general system ; and
Interior, we have de.

hereafter named, are

Demerara Francs.

treasury. It

is to be observed in explanation of the arrangement,
that the imposts are to be exacted, not according to
the invoice price, but agreeably with the rate of mer-
chandize at Paris, or in the technical phrase ad yak,.
tin in the capital of the country into which they are
introduced.

This Decree has, as might be expected, created a
very great sensation on the Continent. It produced
almost as strong an effect among some of the mercan-
tile classes here. Sugar has risen 10 per cent. and
other colonial produce in proportion, in consequence
of the very large purchases made in these articles, by
Houses that have been in the habit of trading to the
Continent.

It is extremely probable that one of the first effects
of this Decree will be, to induce commercial men to
hazard extensive speculations in those articles admit-
ted by the Decree ; and therefore we cannot
_zoo
strongly recommend caution in any transactions that
may ultimately lead to a deposit of British property
in French warehouses, before the value is remitted to
this country. Let Merchants keep in memory the
numerous confiscations of British property that have
already taken place en the Continent, even under cir-
cumstances that rendered such confiscations subver-
sive of all the fundamental principles which had hi-
therto guided the commercial intercourse of nations.
Let them recollect too, the treatment experienced by
American traders, in the violation of public faith,
and in contempt of all the principles of public justice.
Let them remember, that whatever may be the mo-
tives that have given rise to the present arrangement,
the thought farthest from NAPOLEON'S mind is, that
of doing any thing that may ultimately benefit the
pursuits of British commercial men, or promote the
trading interests of this Empire I
The subjoined letter is from an Officer on board
his Majesty's ship RUBY/ of 64 guns :

" At anchor of Nybog, in the Great Belt, July 41,1810.

- - .
66 I have nothing peculiarly interesting to inform
you of at present, relative to our operations in this
quarter; for we are nearly as quiet as if we were
lying in Hamoaze. The Danish gun-boats shew
themselves occasionally, Which obliges us to keep on
the alert. We have got the Island of Sproe in a fine
state of cultivation, which affords us many luxuries,
such as sallad, beans, peas ; and, in short, vegetables
of every description. The different ships' companies
go on shore when the service will permit alternately,
which has proved highly conducive to their health,
and is esteemed by the men as a great treat.
66 Captain PEARSON, of the DICTATOR, has been in-
valided, and is gone for England, and Captain Wm-
LIMO is appointed to the DICTATOR. Captain WHITE,
of the ARIEL, is posted into the RUBY ; and the First
Lieutenant of the VICTORY is promoted to a Master
and Commander, and appointed to the ARIEL.

It is reported that we are shortly to be employed
on some expedition on the Russian toast.

" The Danes have been too successful against our
merchant craft ; and it is not to be wondered at, con-
sidering their number, and the frequent inefficiency
of the convoy appointed to protect them. We have,
however, on our parts, taken many Danish vessels,
most of which have been destroyed, as they would
not pay the expence of sending to England for con-
demnation."

The following letter from an Officer on board the
POMONE, came by the Carteret packet :

" Malta, July 6, 1810.
44 My last, dated off Sardinia, would inform you
of our sailing for this place, where we expected to
have undergone a thorough repair ; but, contrary to
our expectations, we are ordered off the Sicilian coast
immediately, in company with the itED ELVIN and
SPIDER.

" On our passage hither we captured a small po.
lacre, and chaced a large French brig of war for up-
wards of six hours, but having the misfortune to
carry away our fore-top-mast, she escaped us by su-
perior sailing.
41 Admiral Sir CHARLES BOYLES has arrived, and
taken upon himself the government of this island.
" We are given to understand that the service we
are going on will not occupy many days, and that
when we have accomplished our object, we shall sail
!or England. It is pretty generally understood that
we are going against a Neapolitan squadron of gun-
boats, &c. in company with a division of the Toulon
squadron. We expect warm work, but bare no doubt
of accomplishing our object."

There has been no new arrival from the Mediter-
ranean since the CARTaRET packet. The following
letters were received lsy that conveyance :
s CITADEL OF MESSINA, JUNE 22.
a We are here in daily expectation of a visit from
the French, and though I am confident we shall give
them a warm reception (if they do attempt a landing)
still I think it is better to prepare for all events. In_
deed MURAT seems by his preparations to entertain a
serious intention of invading Sicily; he actually has
drawn a very large force together in our neighbour-
hood, and has collected no less than from two to three
thousand vessels and boats of all descriptions, near
Scylla, and along the coast. It is true that our
flotilla and the Volage frigate have already sunk and
destroyed 50 of them, of which 11 were gun-boats ;
but the remainder are so well covered with batteries,
that it is almost impossible to tome near them. We
must therefore wait quietly their coming out. The
' whole is a representation in miniature of the Boulogne

,flotilla, whit the difference old?, that in half an hour's
time they can cross the Streights near the Fat;o, and
that we cannot depend much upon the inhabitants of
this country. However, as it is, MURAT will meet with
more difficulties than he appears to be aware of."

K GIBRALTAR, JULY 26.

a The Deputies to the Cortes from one of the East-
ern provinces (we believe Catalonia), have touched
at this place for Cadiz. We understand that General
O'Donnell intends to be present at the meeting, al.
though not in any official capacity. He will arrive,
if he comes at all, in a few days, Deputies from
other provinces have reached the Isle of Leon, where
the Cortes is to be assembled.

" King Joseph has reached the neighbourhood of
Valencia, with an army nearly 30,000 strong. The
siege of Tarragona is to be begun Immediately, and
prosecuted with great vigour. The place will make
a long and strong resistance.
Letters from Madrid, dated the beginning of the
month, mention that only a sufficient number of sol-
diers to preserve the peace remained there. There
had been a commotion at Alcala de Ulnaras, where
some 20 Frenchmen fell. We know none of the par-
ticulars, but we suppose that the people were exas-
perated at their cruelties.

" The enemy before Cadiz is so weak, that the
siege might easily be raised with the assistance of the
lone in the rear under Lacey. This is a fine oppor-
tunity for a struggle while Massena keeps inactive
100,000 men ; but the Spaniards do not know how
to improve such fair occasions. There is not a than
in Andalusia that is not as ferocious as a canibal if he
catches a Frenchman. It is a pity that about 17,000
of the enemy, at the utmost, should overawe a popu-
lation of some millions in that province."

The Km came to town yesterday, about twelve
o'clock, and was received at the Queen's Palace by
the Dukes of Yonx and KENT.

at Windsor on Tuesday, on a visit to their MAJES-
TIES. His MAJESTY, Princesses AUGUSTA and So.
PIIIA, with their usual attendants, took their morning
airings in Windsor Great Park till twelve o'clock.

His MAJESTY, who has been considered to have a
strung retention of patt events, gave a singular proof
of it on Sunday evening on Windsor terrace. A No-
bleman introduced his son, a boy about nine years of
age ; one of the Princesses begged her father to lay
his hand upon the boy's head, and feel how much he
had grown since he had last the honour of being pre.
sented. His MAJESTY, in doing so, exclaimed, " Aye,
I remember I was," mentioning the month and day,
" at his grandfather's christening, in the year 1751."
The Marquis Wet.r.asLEY went to Court yesterday
in a very splendid style. His Garter of the Order
was brilliantly ornamented with diamonds ; his car-
riage had a new hammer-cloth of superfine scarlet and
dark-brown, the sides of scarlet, embroidered with I,
Kold in a semi-circle, representing the Collar of the
nights of the Garter • the coronet in full arms, and
richly embroidered ; the liveries were very superb, of
superfine dark-brown cloth for the coats, gold lace
about an inch and a half wide upon each seam, and
the sleeves crossed with the same five times ; thetas
and pockets had gold lace above two inches wide ;
the right shoulders had most elegantly embroidered
epaulets with the Marquis's arms, with superb tans ;
the waiscoats superfine scarlet cloth, ornamented with
gold lace ; the breeches superfine scarlet cloth, with
gold lace knee-bands, silk stockings and elegant gilt
buckles ; the hats were ornamented with gold lace,
each corner had gold tassels.

The Cabinet Ministers dined yesterday with the
Earl of LIVERPOOL, at his house in Whitehall.

Mr. W. BENTHAM, of Sheerness, is appointed Vice
Consul for the United States of America.

Admiral OTWAY is appointed to the command on
the Leith station ; and Sir CHARLES HAMILTON to
that at Woolwich.

Sir FRANCIS LATORZY, one of the new made Ad-
rals,is to have a command in the West Indies.

The Island of Anholt, is the Baltic, which has been
for some time in our possession, is to be strengthened
by every possible means, so as to be capable of repel-
ling any attack that may be made on it by the Danes.
Captain MAURICE., of the navy, who distinguished
himself in the defence of the Diamond Rock in the
West Indies, is appointed to the command of this post,
which is likely to become one of great importance.
On Thursday evening last, at Portsmouth, two
French prisoners escaped from the SAN ANTONIO,
prison-ship ; and the same night twenty prisoners on
board the VETERAN had planned their escape, but
just before the time for putting their plan in execu-
tion, one of them made the officers of the ship Re-
'painted with it, whices of course frustrated their
hopes of escape.

The Duke of BRUNSWICK was not present at the
fete given at Brighton on Monday. He was preven.
ted by indisposition from paying his respects to the
Palace;. The foreign officer present was GenerAi
Nuoinar, of the Austrian service, who wore a white
uniform with scarlet pantaloons, and was accompA.
nied by his Aid-de-Camp, Captain HOLLoGAN, who
wore an elegant highly gilt helmet and breast-plate.
I The Duke of YoRK proposed the health of the
Princess CHARLOTTE ofWALES, which was drank with
enthusiasm, and in the true English style, with three
times three. The Prince, in returning thanks for this
' mark of respect to the object of his pride and tender.
ness, is reported to have spoken to the following
effect :—that he had nude it his first care to instil
into the mind and heart of his daughter the knowledge
and love of the true principles of the British Coo-
sthution ; and had pointed out to her young under-
standing, as a model for study, the political conduct
of his most revered and lamented friend, Mr. Fox, who
had asserted and maintained, with such transcendent
force, the just principles upon which the Govern,
meat under this excellent Constitution ought to be
administered for the true and solid dignity oft& Crown,
and the real security, freedom and happiness of the
people; that he had the most heartfelt enjoyment in
knowing, that even in her present early year, his
daughter had a just conception of the value of thepre-
cepts which had been implanted in her breast; and,
that he could say, with confidence, that she would
fulfil all the duties which she might be called upon
to discharge when his bones were laid in the grave.
The sensibility and pathos with which the Palma ex.
pressed himself, had a strong effect on the company.
His Royal Highness the Duke of Sussex was pre.
vented by indisposition from being at Brighton during
the PRINCIBS birth-day. He some time ago suffered
a strain while mounting his horse.
The Duke of Yoga left Brighton on Tuesday
morning. The Patna goes from thence straight to
Oatlancls, where the anniversary of the Dukeof YoRIt'S
birth-day is to be passed with great festivity this day.

ELOPEMENT.—The inhabitants of Wiacanton and
its neighbourhood have bees recently furnished with
an interesting topic of conversation by the elopement
of Miss D—LT—N, whose father resides at
House, near that town. The young lady is an only
daughter, and the presumed heiress to property of
nearly £200,000 in value. Miss D. who is very
handsome and very amiable, is-26 years of age, and
has been kept in a state of the most rigid seclusion
from society, particularly from that of the male sea,
all her life, contrived, through the medium of a wo-
man who inhabits a cottage in the neighbourhood, to
arrange matters so as to meet Y—T—N, Esq.
sher cousin, last Sunday afternoon, near her father's
garden. A chaise-and-four was in readiness, and the
lovely heroine was seen to step into it, upon which it
immediately drove off towards London with the ut•
most speed.

Lady MULGRAVE left TunbridgeWells on Tuesday,
for Broadstairs, where she is expected to remain about
a fortnight, previous to the familygoing into Yorkshire.
We do not find, upon inspection, that the Waterier:
Places have the overflow of visitors, which the letters
of interested writers so constantly announce. At
Worthing there are an hundred houses untenanted. At
Brighton, till the Prince's arrival, the company was
extremely disproportiored to the accommodation. So
many houses have been built, that there was not, even
during the grand days of the Fete, a demand for houses,
except in the vicinity of the Pavilion.

Twelve gentlemen of the University of Cambridge
hay,: already offered themselves as candidates for the
Rectory of Ovington, now vacant, and which is in the
gift of the Senate at large. The election, it is expec•
ted, will not take place till October next.

The Lord Advocate; the Lord Succoth; Mr. Houston, of
Clerklngton, M.P. for Glasgow; Mr. Campbell, of Blythswoodj
the Hon. Colonel Cadogan ; Mr. Muir, of Caldwell, 2cc. la.

In the course of the evening, the LORD Paoverr,
after a short appropriate address, presented Lord MEL.
VILLE with the freedom of the City; which was cor-
dially received by his Lordship.

At the Annual Election of the °Ricers of the Ar
tillery Company of Boston, on the 4th of June, which
is always observed as a holiday in that city, the Pre.
sident and Officers of State, Mr. JACKSON, and sew
ral strangers of distinction, were invited' to partake
