In fome of The northern ports of the kingdom
1t has been rumored, that the French had oc-
oupied Lubbock. The rumor originated in or
5s.s 10 ioiTie mercantile f0uies 10 iufi,end the
ih1pping OF goods for that port. Similar or.
ders, we hear, have been given with refpeet to
Tonningen.
AT Hamburg, the occupation of Holfein and
the neighbouring territory was hourly expected
TO take place, as feveral movements had been
MADE on the part of the republican troops,
which could have no other object
lis not impofiible that the French NAV Esize
Tonningen and the other Danilh ports in that
neighbourhood but we do not fee in what
manner that event will very materially afef
Our export trade for we do not believe that
our merchants, fince the French have been Eo
rear that part of the Danilh territories, have
exported very largely to Tonningen. But the
french with to occupy Tonningen and Huflm
IN ORDER 20 retard our communication by pack
cts with the continent. The occupation of
Lubbock would render it necehary for us to iend
the goods that we have been in the habit of
tending thither, to Roftock or the Oder.
As we could only infert in part of our inn
prefhon yefterday fhort account of the loan
to be RATED for the fervice of the year, we pub.
liih to day more particular account.
IN coniequence of a notice from Mr.. CORY
to the gentlemen of the flock exchange. and
further on the fubject of the Irifh Loan. the fol-
lowing gentlemen waited upon him veiferday ::
Meiirs. Puget, Burroughs, w. Burrcuehs.
Idle, Atkins, Sheweil, Franks, Crofton, and
Ormsby.
Mr.. Cory fated, that ne was authorized 70
lay what would be the probable amount of the
loans Tor England and Ireland, but with reflect
to the FUN which would be required for Eng
land, he wifhed it to be underfooo. that NJ
nuff mt IL, =
would not be exceeded. The fun intended TO
be borrowed for the two countries was fifteen
millions, ten millions Of which only would be-
long to Eng land, and the remaining fix millions
for Ireland. Four millions and three quarters
OF the latter fun, it was propofed, fhouId be
bid for in England and one million and quar-
ter in ireland. The bidding in Ireland was FIX
ed TO take place in Dublin on the 18th infant.
when the propoiais then made would be tranf-
mitted to him by eXprefs: fhould the terms of
tered be fuCh as he ihould approve of, there
would in that cafe be only fourteen millions and
three quarters to be RATED in England if the
contrary the whole fun of fifteen millions
would be raifed here.
