of October, and stating that the wines. were In pre.
paration for shipment, and the Captain pretended he
shot*
id bail on the 14th. The letter being written in
'Portuguese, much stress was laid upon the word pre-
irndcd, as translated. On the one hand it was con-
tended, that the term NA* indefinite; on the other,
that it meant an i pootion to sail on that day. The?'
person who had edicted..the subscription with the j
Defendant had since died at Bristol, and it could not
be proved that he had communicated the letter in
question ; but the person who effected the ulterior
subecriptious with the other Underwriters, proved'
that he had communicated, this letter, along with
other documents, to them. It also appeared, from
Void's List, that the cenvoy bad sailed from Oporto
on the 13th October,,:front whence it wee inferred,
that this letter could not have been comnsunicated.
The Jury, however, found a verdict for the Pliin-.1
tiff, as for a total loss.
A. MACKT:NZIE, IN. C. C. itlfitilo:4l,
This was an action upon a 11111 of Exchange for
70001. for the value of Spanish sheep sold by the
Plaiuttti to the Defendant.
Mr. G.tuaow iu his opening insisted that the De-
fendant was precluded in this action from going into
any .question of warranty, or unsoundness of the
' sheep, which must be tried in a cross action.
Lora Ext.rmsolsouost was of the same opinion, as
the warranty was denied • and it was admitted by
: the Defendant's Counsel, ;hat the alleged unsound-
' ness was wholly unknown to the Plaintiff a' the time
of the sale.
I. Verdict for the Plaintiff—Damages 70521. and the
question of warranty to be referred to Mr. Gazelee.

WORCESTER. ASSIZES.
A cause came on to be tried before Mr. Justice
LE Bitesc, wherein William Loxley was Plaintiff,
and Sir Manasseh Makseh Lopez, Bart. Defendant.
The latter had, at the General Election, in 1807,
offered himself as a Candidate to represent the Bo-
rough of Evesham, in Parliament, and employed
Plaintiffas his agent, who, by this action, sought to
recover the balance due to him as such election wilt.
Defendant had, during the election, paid to Plain.
tiff the sum of 1531. 19,. 6d.-and had paid into
Court the snm of 601. ; and the defence was, that
the amount of those two sums was more than Plain-
tiff ought to receive ; but after a trial of more than
nine hours, the Jury, without hesitation, returned a
verdict for the Plaintiff.

EXTRACT OF A LETTER FROX AN OPFIVIL ON ROAM)
THE CALYPSO, DATED YARMOUTH, JULY 13.

" We sailed from Sheerness on the 22d of March,
and have been wigging of Christiinsiisct tO watch a
Danish squadron, which consisted of one large frigate
of 48 guns, and eight brigs of 20 guns each. A ftgr se-
veral chaces, we at last brought them to action, with
the Dictator and Podargas in-company. Supposing the
frigate might be on its return to Christiansand, ne
looked itsto the harbour of Arendahl, when the.
Podsrgus made signal of ' the enemy, at anchor,'
which was repeated by the other vessels. We imme-
diately prepared for action. After-a consultation
between the three Captains, it was resolved to attack
them at anchor ; and the Potlargus had a seaman
who volunteered to take the vessels into the harbour.
The Podargus led, the Calypso was next, then the
Dictator, and the Flamer brig, which had just join.
ed, brought up the rear. Soon after we entered the
inlet to the harbour, the Podargat took the ground,
and the Flamer was ordered to her assistance. The
Calypso then led, and was followed oy the Dictator.
It was one of the most beautiful, as well as uncom.
men pursuits ever witnessed : the passage was se
narrow, that the hnuiches of the trees almost touched
us ; the Dictator's sides nearly touched the houses
built on the creek, About half-past six P. M. the
enemy spread all their canvas; the Calypso being thee
a-head, was exposedrfor two hours, to a very !wavy
fire from the enemy's stern chasers, and we were not
able to get a gun to bear upon them. About eight
o'clock they anchored in a small hason, when we
dropped our anchor, and commenced action with the
whole squadron within pistol-shot. The Dictator
soon came up; we cheered her; she closed with the
enemy, and commenced a' tremendous cannonade.
About ten o'clock the frigate blew up; the action
continued with the gun-brigs for about half an hour
longer, when the enemy called for quarter. Consi-
der our situation at this moment—the Dictator was
a-ground, we had warped under her stern ; the fri-
gate was burOing furiously within twenty yards of
us, and her after magazine was expected to blow up
every moment 1 We had run upwards of fifteen mires
into an enemy's countr,y,_and bad no pilots to take
us out. By•great exertions, however the Dictator
was got off, and the Calypso was left with the enemy's
brigs; which, however, we could not get out, as
their gun-boats increased, and cut us up very much.
Not a vestige of the frigate was left; the brigs were
ashore, and totally disabled."
• In order to display the absurdity, 4•Ssor oder a at-
tempts at strength, we select the following anecdotes :1
—Coins Marius, who was originally a cutler,. and bill
the time of Galienis elected Emperor by the attl-i
diers, was so strong a bodied man, that the veins pf
his hands appeared like sinews. He could stop ai
cart drawn with horses, and pull it backwards with-
his fourth finger. If he gave the strongest man a
fillip, it was- felt like &blow on the forehead with
a hammer. With his hands he could break many
things twisted together. As is proolol rapidity,. King
Henry V. of England was so swift of foot, that be,

PICKroCKM.—This audacious aescription of rob•
hers are again rearing their !Wads. A boat-race being
announced to take piece &bows Bridge on Thursday I
afternoon, Nichols, Cave, and Westcote, belonging
to the 'Office, were stationed on Westminster-bridge.
They observed a gang of pickpockets attempting to
rob the public, by feeling their pockets, putting their
hands in, kc. A well-known character, of the
name of John ryes, they saw with his hand in a
Gentleman's pocket for several minutes, which was
• supposed to contain several articles, and- he was :
chasing the most valuable. They secured him and a
fellow, of the name of Thomas ON. In the evening
they, underwent an examination before Mr. READ .
and-Mr.' Bums. They were committed to the Sur-
rey Sessions.

SuorzArrixo.—Yesterday, three Women were
• charged, before Sir WaTais [Awn (who sat for the
Lord Mayor), with stealing two pieces of printed
cotton from a Linen-draper's shop, in the Minories,
where they had gone under pretence of purchasing
some trifling artictes, and by these means found an
opportunity to steal the cotton. A material witness
being wanting, the Prisoners were remanded for fur-
ther examination.

GUILDHALL.
A green-grocer in Fleet-market, was charged be-
fore Alderman Arains, by the Inquest Jury of St.
Sepulchre's parish, the Foreman of which Inquest
stated; to the Alderman, that this man's stall was in
the butcher's market, where he had encroached upon
the pavement further than he had a right to do, to
the great inconvenience of the public, as well as the
other shops near him ; that they repeatedly warned
him of his encroachment, but he would not alter it,
and they were under the necessity of ordering part of
his goods to be taken to the green yard: The De-
fendant said, he told the Gentlemen that be would
remove it, but as his vegetables were put out, he
wished not to remove them, that he suffered very
muck by their taking his things to the green-yardt—
The Alderman told him the Inquest Jury were sworn
to do their duty, but as he had lost a great part of his
goods, upon paying the expences, he should be dis-
charied.

The following is an extract of a letter from Shrop-
shire, dated 13th July, 1812:—" Very promising
crops of grain and potatoes, and all bi- good humour
about me ; corn at 465. the bushel of 38 quarts."
i'ay the representations of the I/legates from Lei-
cesler, the Committee of the House of Commons
have resolved to expunge all the clauses, relating to
the manufacturing of hosiery, from the Frame Bill,
.; leaving none for the consideration of the House but
I those which affect the lace-knitting.
The shock of an earthquake was felt at St. Peters-
burgh on the .18th of May, at nine o'clock in the
I morning ; it lasted about live minutes, but did no
mischief.
Workmen have commenced grubbing up the old
decayed elm trees, in the great mall, St. James's
Park. Of these, there are three nearly opposite the
gate from St. James's Palace, at the milk-house,
near the Green Park. One of them has been taken
i. out of the ground. The trunk is about five feet dia-
meter, and for the greater part quite rotten. The
workmen are nor employed on its neighbour, which
• is also dead, and is expected to be grubbed up this
! day. There is a third within a few yards, in nearly
1 the same state. The first of these trees is saidlo be
160 years old, the oldest in the Park, except one
about fifty yards .more to the west, which is appa-
-1
Irently of .the same age. The latter, however, is
I alive and - sound, .except on one side, which was
struck by lightning last spring. The Earl of 'Cau-
-1
i LISLE has a picture of the Park, drawn about the
time these ancient trees were planted. The great
mall was then the fashionable resort of the London
i depletes, who are exhibited walking in masks, or
carried in sedan chairs, before Hyde Park, Rotten-
row, and barocches became the order of the nay.—

1 The western side was then the market for the sale of
i birds. Cages full of thein „are suspended from the
1 branches of the trees. It was thence called the Bird-
i cage walk.
