PLYMOUTH, OCT. 19.

The wind at S.S.W. blew almost a hurricane last night, at•
tended with heavy rain, which has done a great deal of damage
to the shipping at this port. The American Blip Horace, Cap-
tain Appleton, laden with brandy and wine, frum Naples, bound
to London, parted her cables this morning, then lying at the
mouth of Catwater, and went on the rocks under Queen Anne's
battery, where she lies, and is expected to go to pieces when
the tide rises; part of the cargo has been got out. —The brig
Redness, of Hull, employed in his Majesty's Victualling De-
partment, parted her cables in Catwater, and went on the
rocks in lhadman's Bay, and is gone to atoms—crew saved.—
The tiers of vessels, of Taructiapple, in Catwater, broke adrift
this morning in the gale, and the greater part of•the vessels went
on shore in the upper part of Catwater, near theston ; one of
them, a most beautiful American ship, called the General Gates,
captured on ber voyage from Bipartite:tux to America, by the
*elle Pottle and Dryad frigates, with a cargo consisting of
about 500 pipes of brandy, and silks and other thy goods, to
a large amount, together nearly thirty thousand pounds, is on
ber beam ends uear Oreston, and bilged, and the brandy run-
ning out of her a stream t it is feared the ship w ill be lost and a
pert of the cargo.—A new ship, called the Coventry (a West
Indianian), built at Turnchapple, is also on shore outside of the
General Gates, and beating upon her; schooner Betsey, a prize
is on shore, close to the Gates, and full of water, having been cut
down to the water's edge by the former vessel ; the schooners
Young Connecticut and Ilirondella are on shore, and on their
beam end: ; and the Gascaigne (late a French pritateer) broke
from her moorings with the &riser vessels, but got into
Pomphlent Like without much damage; several other vessels
drifted at the same time, but have received no material injury.—
The sloop Providence, of Darmouth, Capt. Brown, is on shore
in Millbay, and is bilged. The hinds ships iu the Sound rode
very hard, as a most tremendous sea rolled in. The Rein Deer
brig of war, parted u cattle and stranded another, but a pilot
having got on board she was ran into Catw:tter, aid is nuts in
safety. Several vessels have parted their cables in Ilamoaze and
Stouelionse Pool, hut do not apprehend that any of them have
received any material injury.
The Racoon sloop of tsar sailed yesterday fur the Eastward,
but none of the ►hips that were about to sail under hen convoy
could get oust, the wind having blown strong.
A frigate is anchored in Cast and flay.

Messrs. THEN tan and CLuz EL were lately sent by
the French Government to Flushing, to direct the
means of pre erring the health of the military.—
These Gentlemen ordered earthen vessels, filled with
oxymuriatic acid, greatly diluted with water, to be
Oared in the apartments of the soldiers, as
well as those where prisoners were confined, and
obliged every man employed on the fortifications to
dip his hand into one of the vessels every morning
before be went to his work. They placed similar
vessels in the ditches of stinking mud, so that, from
these ancLjhe fumilption employed, the workmen
were immersed day and night in an atmosphere of
onymuriatic acid, and preserved their health.—
Many persons severely infected with the itch, anon
experienced the good effects of immersion in ozymu-
riatic acid.

At an early hour on Tuesday morning, as a gen-
tleman, who resides in the London-road, St. George's- i
fields, was passing over Blackfriar's.bridge, his at-1
tention was aroused by the sight of a young female,
standing on the top of the parapet, near the ceders
arth: he immediately flew to the spot, accompanied
by one of the Patrole, who happened to be near
him; and caught the unhappy woman, just as she
was in the act of springing off. She assigned no
reason for so rash an attempt, but appeared in an
advanced state of pregnancy, and evidently laboured
under great anguish of mind. The Patrole promised
to take her to the Poultry Compter, that she might
be brought before the Sitting Aldermao, and sent to
her place of settlement. tier appearance was ex-
tremely prepossessing; she is a native of the sister
kingdom; and from what could be collected from her
Incoherent account, she had followed some humane
friend, who had seduced and afterwards basely de-
serted her.

BOXING.

Two fighting men were pitted yesterday on a plat
on the London side of Uxbridge : Maltby. who heat
Young Crib at Thisseltou Gap, weighs 12st. Gib. and
Cope, the latter of whom was introduced with the
qualifications of tried and determined courage and
bottom, with 13st. 11b. weight. He is of a respec!.
able stock from Shropshire. The battle drew
ther several thousand spectators, and it hid ex-
cited more than common interest. At one o'clock
the pugilists s'wwed, and exhibited in a roped rin;r,
with Cropicy second to Malibu, al:0
Junes to cope. Betting even on the evil:!, !,/(,
by for choice.

Round 1. --This was a contested thing, which gave P.
of delight the amateurs anticipated. Cope note r..k- •
Oros ing in bits left and eight, both of which told. a-.
were returned .so the head and body. Neither werA
after a second set-to, Maltby inside a hit with the 1, •
the head, which fell short, and one was placed on I
with
great effect. Cope, who seemed flushed by Li, write, e,
eilOrt.., placed another hit on 1.; adverse: •n head, whi,•!,
and which Maltby recur:v.4l with 4eickiiN•i on the heal 10.1
body. A kind of counter (both hitting together) next followed,
and bath were bit away. The combatttn;s eagerly embraced a
third rally, in which several laib were exclianAed, and at length
both men were exhausted by lis,htirt;, mid after other lat. they
dosed for first fall much fat ;4iied. Maltby, upon the while,
had the worst of the round, and he Lied copiously from the arise
and mouth from the effects of the rally.
After this tirst round, which was worth a modern fidit by the
general expression amongst recent cmititors, the eh:tract, r at
the battle can he better couveyett to the ainatear geneed:iing
it. The second round was as conra,lconsly maititaine,l as the
first, and although Maltby displayed tee bed knack of bitting,
vet his adversary was always w ith h m, and the dez,„„iii,,d rit
lieg were reciprocal. Cope sonde bits, which by his strength
told, and Maltby, from rallying in this and lacier roundi, was
bled by his antagonist from every organ. Cope, tiol% ever, re-
ceived two good hits from Maltby's left ham:, which nearly
closed his HO eve. The battle lasted al ogeth,-r minutes,
and every second. was spent in real fighting.- In dosing,. where
a trial of streneth took .'lace, Cope had the advantage. .1100sy
was the best and weightiest hitter, hut Cope was covered a ,;h
flesh of manhood, and diTuted the purse with him ; lint hoe.
ever good in nature, he hit often at random, wanted quieknes,
and the sequel proved him inferior in punishing. Ile received
two destructive hits in 'minds 'remit! And third, fim; wht,sh,,,,

A Chester paper states, that a person known by
the name of King Ludd is taken and committed to
Chester gaol. Ills name is Walker! he was a col-
lier, marched before the deluded mob in a large
cocked hat, and was distinguished by the appellation
of General Ludd. That poverty or want did not
impel him to the depredations with which hp is
charged, is evident from this circumstance, that six
guineas were found upon his person when he was re-
ceived at the Castle on Sunday last.

Arrived the Eagle Excise cutter, Captain Adams, from
cruize, spuke this moruffig a large American ship, from
nab bouccl to Plymouth, with timber for the dock-yard, which
bad been captured on Sunday of the lMdman, by a very small
French lugger privateer, of ill tons, which had also taken one
other large ship, from the Mediterranean, and a brig and sloop.
The trio ships were retaken ihortly after being captured by his
Majesty's brig Helicon, but the Frenchman escaped with the
brig and sloop. Notice of this privateer having captured a
vessel of the Dedruan was conununicated from St. Anthony's
signal post, on Sunday, but udfortunately no other cruir....r hut
the Active Excise cutter being within port at the time.. it was
considered too late, when the account was received, to take any
steps for the recapture of the ships taken.

MONTHLY ,IGRILITLTURAL REPORT.

The seed process has gone on heavily upon strong and rough
lands, from their parched and elodded surface, the consequence
of some week's drought ; there is yet much to do, nor will it be
performed in that style of good husbandry for ss hich a more ge-
nial season is-required : the present, in course, vs ill be late.—All
the spring corn and pulse above ground in a very backward
state, parched by the cold, dry, northerly and easterly winds,
and much in want of showers. Nothing done yet upon the ful-
lows. The crops of wheat *bleb originally planted well are
mitversally in a flourishing Inge, that crop seldom befog injured
by dry weather in the spring; but those upon poor, ill-cultured,
and undrained soils, the early appearance of which was nn-
thrifty, chew at present very thin, and of a yellow unhealthy
colour. The stagnant internal damps of such soils are not (be
kind of moisture required for the nourishment of plants.—Re-
ports of the fertility of the newly-inclosed lands, general, and
the mode of breaking them up in all improved districts, that of
paring and burning, all the old objections to which are proved
futile ind groundless, where subsequent good culture is perse-
vered in : namely, working the eradication of weeds, and a fair
portion of mature. Both fat and lean cattle cheaper from the
scarcity and enhanced price of fond. Pigs somewhat dearer.
Nothing new respecting sheep and lambs. A fair stock of hay
upon hand, straw proportionably deficient. The stock of tur-
nips finished, excepting with those provident farmers who drew
and stacked their roots for spring use, and such, as usual, were
very few. The few crops of lucerne very backward, nor can
1 grass be expected but with rain and warm weather. Stock of
oil cake short, and no feeding with sugar, but on the scum of
1 distiller's wash.

By the Tontine cartel, which arrived at Plymouth,
American Papers have been rcceived to the 24th ult.
which will be found te contain a variety of interest.

has experienced at the commencement of the nar '
with England, has greatly widened the breach, and
is calculated to call forth the utmost energies of our
American brethren to persevere in the contest.
The official dispatch of General Hum, regarding
his surrender, had been recei“.ll at Washington (the
mantissas of which we have inserted) ; and such ik as

DREADFUL TORNADO AT NEW ORLEANS.

NEW YORK, SEPT. '2l.—On the 19th and 20th of
August, a tremendous hurricane was experienced at
New Orleans, which lasted with dreadful severity
for four hours. Most of the houses were unroofed ;
and the shipping in the harbour driven ashore and
sunk. Of about sixty vessels in port, not one, save
the brig Botanic, escaped injury. Several of theta
sunk and disappeared, and many that continue to
float are not worth repairing. A great number of
lives have been lost by the crushing of houses and
overflowing of the river. Three vessels loaded with
flour are entirely sunk. It is said there are several
British vessels off the Belize; and that they have
taken possession of the Block-house, and mounted
some guns there, intentlin; to keep possession of it
for some time.

On the day previous to the hurricane it was die.
covered that an insurrection among the nagroes was
intended. The militia were ordered out) which has
completely frustrated their intentions.
