THE INDIAN CHIEF;

Extract of a Letter from a Gentleman It Ports-
mouth tb his Friend in London :
" Haring seen by the Newspapers that the Indian Chitty
George Petryman, the son of Hopoy Itlleo, whom I knew Jai
the 17Mridas, was on board the Semiramis, in this harbour, I
was induced to go to see him yesterday, and, as you may sup-
pose, he was happy to meet an acquaintance ; one to whom he
conceived ht. might speak in confidence, as it appears to HAW
that those who prevent him from coining chore are in the hitpt
rest of his enemies. Perryman informs me, that he is ord
to return without delay to his own country, and is cot allow"(
to land hi this a he asked me some questions, Which I really feW
ata loss how tb evade, paint ty—' What shaft I tell the Indiaaii
way return, when they ask me, why would not Tote getw
rather arid Kin; allow you to land on big ground? And
Too not say, when you asked ut to go to War, that you vr
dways assist us if the Americans should attempt to take is
lands? They have now made that attempt, they made it sooss
after you left us, without any provocation on our part, and
am sent to England to remihd you of your promise.' This it
the Substance, and nearly the words of his complaint ; to whit.
of course, I could give no answer. He then went en to st
bleat the Americans are not disposed to come to any terms
them, until they. are driven to the other side of the klissitv'prk r
" The Chief's, Francis and John, he says, were both decoyed,
to a vessel under English colours, and immediately hangede—:.
Aembrister he states to have had but little to do With the ine
Mans; and Artruthnott Was put to death for having given aril
Indians information that their enemies were coming upon thesail
and thereby preventing a surptise. ti
" I Was sorry to find this man so Much neglected; he appeaell,

• &MG.—A regular determined milling match
between young Baldwin, son, of the celebrated Caleb,
and young Barron,' son of the like celebrated knacker,
took place in Tothil-fields, by candle light, on Tues.
day, • for a subscription purse amongst a party of
amateurs, who had dined at Oliver's. Forty rounds
were fought, at hit for hit, 'between these heroes of
the bantam breed. Young Caleb rolled in mischiev-
ously in his dad's style, but Barron met him firmly.
and both milled away until they fell breathless in
every round. Time was given for fetching wind, and
to it they went again, • with claret streaming, until
the spot resembiled-the ksackels slaughter-hau se.on a
bustling day. They kept up this game for three
quarters of an hour, with' equal advantages, and
some money was non and lost at betting odds upon
'each. Baldwin fought at a• disadvantage the last 'six
rounds, manifesting much weakness, and he was uki-
mately obliged to yield to superior weight. Although
Baldwin was defeated, he did not sully the name.
DRURY-LANE THEATRI---Venice Preserved was
acted last night, and the cad was rich in novelty, as
Mr. CLEARY, who, a few evenings ago, came out in
Othello, took the character of Pierre ; Mr. DAVID
FISHER, who performed at this Theatre in the early
part of last season, assumed that of Jaj/ier, and Mrs.
WEST, who made her debut in Desdemona, was the.
representative .of 13cIvidera. It is but justice to say,
that the above novices in the histrionic art, severally
sustained throughout the parts allotted to them with
credit to themselves, and to the entire satisfaction of
a numerous audience ; who testified their approba-
tion, at the close of the Tra,gedy, by shouts of ap-
plause, and unanimously calling for its repetition on
Saturday, for which evening it was accordingly an-
nounced.
Mtinnan is re-engaged at Drury-lane Theatre upon
his own terms, to perform whenever the gout will
permit him to appear on.the stage.
CORN EXCHANGE, MARX-LANE, SEPT. 15.
Not having had any arrivals of t nglish Corn since
Monday; our Market was bare of that description of
grain this morning ; but there has .been a tolerably
Large quantity of Wheat, Oats, and Barley, from
ibroad, for which there was little or no demand to-
day, and sales were in consequenc,e very heavy, but
without any variation from Monday's prices. In
;Beans, Peas, and other articles, there is no alteration.
