HORRID MURDER AND ROBBERY.—On Wednesday evening, about seven o'clock, as Mr.WTylde, a farmer, of Sunderidge-place, was returning from Croydon Fair, in a horse and chaise, accompanied by his son and grandson, they were stopped near the top of -Westerhain-hill, by a single footpad, who demanded their money ; Mr. Wylde replied, " My friend, you are too late, as I have paid all my money away in the purchase of sonic oxen at the fair."—The robber presented a pistol at the time he stopped them. Mr. Wylde, however, gave him all the money he had at the time, which was only a few shillings, with which the villain expressed himself much dissatisfied ; he insisted upon having more from them, and said he was sure it was not all they had got. The villain keeping his pistoh presented at Mr. Wylde's head, -- Mr. N. turned it from his head with his whip ; but Letters have been received from the French coast, while he was doing this, the robber, without any threat which report that the military force collected at Dou- or notice, immediately discharged it, and the conlogne had broke up, and that several corps were tents of it lodged in Mr. W.'s breast and bead, and =arching towards Holland. The general opinion, ,caused instant death. He expired in his son's arms, he wens, was, that the real destination of these troops without a groan. Tliere.were seven slugs in the piswas Prussia, whither, it is believed BONAPARTE will tot ; two of them lodged in his head, and five in his proceed before he returns to Paris. It appears to be side and breast. Mr. W.'s son is about the age of his policy to collect a force in the North of Germany 19, and his grandson 11 years.--The murderer had which shall.be ready to act in case of a rupture ak ito had the appearance of a farmer's servant. We are Russia, while in the mean time, the Kings of Pntali A l concerned to say he escaped.—The grief and distress and Daaataax will be compelled to surrender ihe r 'of the deceased's son and grandson is more. easily r i 'cit. al per y and territories, the possession of which conceived than described :—they remained without may be demanded on die usual gr.nn.l of convicting assistance,with the body, until some travellers came t.,.. cont 1 inental system. , up, • .  Accounts were yesseiday received from Gibraltar, and from several Spanish ports on the 'coast of the Mediterranean. The letter from Valencia reach to the end of August, at which time much alarm pre♦ailed, in cDnsecrience of the approach of the French who are said to have advanced rapidly, and in considerable force, alcng the coast from Catalonia.  The Eliza cartel has arrived at Dartmouth from Mc.rlaix, with an American messenger on board. is the bearer of dispatches for the American in London, with which he immediately set. off for Lond,n. In the present state of our relations with America, the following communication may .be rezarded as highly important :  " The Prince Madoc, G. W. B.ttctt master, bound from Nurelk to London, was boarded in the Chops of the Channel by a French privateer, iehen a minute examination was made of her Papers, and it being ascertained that she ..vas an American vessel with Americas' produce, she was permitted to proceed on her voyage, without molestation, and was treated with particular •ivility." This is, perhaps, the Fast instance in which it has been sheen, that the French law of blockade, as applied to the flag of the United States, is rescinded. If these examples of forbearance be repeated, there will be no doubt respecting the revocation of the Berlin and lk;iion Decrees, as far as they relate to the Republic. The Constitution American frigate, which has arrived in the Downs from the Texel, has left in Holland 250,000 dollars, in payment of the dividends on the American funds. She is to proceed by the first fair wind to Cherbourg, to receive on board Mr. Russsot , who is appointed Charge d'Affaires for the United States at the Court of London.
