harbour of Pensacola i. said by wanton to be one of
the sa4est in the ,vorld ; but vessels drawing more than
twenty.une feet 'bt water cannot pass the shoal at the
entrance. The first occupants of the territory were
the Spanixrds,Sbat they were fiegitently expelled by
the French and other adventurers. In 1;63 it was
retied to England in exchange fur Cuba, which, with
Yankee aid, she had captured in the pre.:e,eitig war.

Yesterday a Court of Directors was held at the C et
Italia !louse, when the following Commanders took
leave of the Cum t, prrviuus to dei.arting fur their re-
spective (le:4;n:ilium, viz.—Capt. W. Manning, Tho-
mas Grenville, and Capt. J. Blanshard, Marquess of
Wellington, for Madras and Bengal.
Yesterday the Prince Itatafe, recently arrived in this
country from slaila rtscar, paid a visit to the King's
Palace, in Pall-51411, to view the residence of the
King; hr was accompanied by his Secretary and In-
terpreter, and attended by a Gentleman from the
Colonial Department ; he was received at the Palace
by the Equerry in Waiting, and conducted over the
apartments and through the stables; he seemed highly
delighted with every thing he saw, and expressed his
admiration of all that be had seen in this country.
This Prince, with his suite, went in the evening to
Covent-garden Theatre, and sat iu the King's Private
Box.
fleet..--A .luel *is fought at Woolwich on Mon-
dav, between two Officers of the Artillery, viz. Capt.
S. and Capt. A., in which the former was wounded in
the foot. The cause was neither love nor jealousy,
the too fruitful sources of cases of this kind. I t origi-
nated in a difference of political sentiments between
the parties.
Mann To Tao': 100 Muss to 12 svct-aFsivs
Iluvas.—This match, made by Capta:n Beaselcy, of
Irer, to do the above distance with two riders, the
owner (who rides 12 stone.) the first 5J miles, and
feather-weight the next 50, took place over a ten milts
piece of ground on the Ipswich road, on Tuesday, for
•.!00 guineas. The mare to perfor.n tle task was andel
15 hands, but the 'hewed much strength and blood.
She was backed at 6t05 to win. She perforwied 12
miles in the first hour, and within 200 yards of the
same distance in the second hour, before the bit was
drawn. The first 30 miles was performed in fire hours
and five minutes. Here the mare was rubbed flown.
she fed well, and started again after halting half an
hour. She next carried little more than seven stone
of weight, and travelled oh very pleasantly at the
rate of ten miles and a half an hour, which covered
loss of time and stoppages. She won cleverly with
40 minutes to sues. One in the morning was the
starting time.
AcclDlENT.—Yesterday evening, at seven etlosk, a
gig. containing a tientlessian and Lady ass upset at
the corner of Chancery-lane, by which the former,
who was stated to be a Capta:n inahe Navy, was seri-
ously injured. He was conveyed booms in a hackney
coach.
A young woman who was recovered after throwing
herself into the Thames, on Monday, at the end of
Strand-lane, threw herself out of a second loor wits-
chow in White Hart-yard, Druty-lany, about eine
o'clock last night, by which her thigh was %robot.
and her heed dreadfully injured. She All ~era ,
