The Public will hear with much regret that they
are to lose Mrs. JORDAN, as well as MTS. SIDDONS,
during the present season. The former excellent
actress is to appear for about fourteen or sixteen
nights at Covent-garden Theatre, and then finally
withdraws from the scene which her comic powers
have so long enlivened.

A singular occurrence took place yesterday on the
River. A crown and sceptre of gold, together with
other paraphernalia of the kingly office, were seized
by the Custom-house Officers, in consequence of its
having been omitted to make an entry of them.—
These valuables were intended for the Emperor of

Sceptre, dated Oct. 11:--- We are at present
watching the motions of the French fleet in L'Orient.
Their force there consists of two SQ-gun ships, two
7 :rid several frigates. We got ieformation, a
few. do's ago, from a fishing-boat which we cap-
tured, that the ships have their pilots on board, and
mesa to start the first easterly wind. As the wind
no blows from that quarter, we are in hourly ex-
pecation of their endeavouring to get out : if they
do,,they may rely on getting a complete drubbing."
Extract of a letter from. Idol) head, October 13 :
C 4 Considering the late heavy gales, the destruction on
our coast has not been so great as I expected. Two
brigs and a ship were driven on shore; all hands on
board the ship were lost. She was an American,
bound with timber for Dublin, about 600 tons bur-
then, aild called the William, CAMPBELL, master.—
One brig unknown ; all on board perished. The other
brig was from Dundalk, with cattle; 11 out of 43
persons perished, together with the cattle, consisting
of 80 horned, 200 pigs, and 100 sheep."

An Amateur of high respectability says, that it will

qualified approbation, but thought it too cheap at
45 guineas. We recommend those who intend to
purchase Instruments, to examine and hear these ele-

- The daughter of an independent Norfolk Grazier
eloped a few days since with F.
had been welcomed at her father's house, and who
had contrived to borrow a few hundreds of him, in
addition to ruining his daeghier. A fruitless' search
was made after the fugitives several days, and they
were at length traced to Half Moon-street, Piccadil-
ly, where the young Lady had been several days un-
der the protecion of her seducer. The means the
father took to get back his daughter was to arrest her
gallant for the debt due to him ; and having done so,•
he conducted Miss back to Norfolk.

Amsterdam, the Irish Papers tell us, is rivalling
Paris in dance and song, in plays, balls, festivals,
and fireworks. - A dancing Dutchman is not aiming
