CHITTY mailer, has returned from a cruize. On the 26th ult. the latter fell in with a French brig privateer, fuppnfed to be the Venus, of Nantz, which flse en- gaged for an hour and a half, in fuch a manner, as obliged the enemy to retreat after lofing fix or (even men, and no doubt feveril wounded. The Earl Spen- ter had one man killed, and f:ven wounded ; one of whom is knee dead of his wounds. Capt. Currvy's arm was broken in the eng s agement by a mufket ball, but in other refpe6ls he is very well. A young man belonging to this town is jun brought on chore, hav ing his thigh broken, and for want of proper Ail- ance, his life is defpaired of : this man's brother was wounded by a mufket ball, which grazed the top of hi% head, but not dangeroafly. The above young Inn have been the principal fupport of their mother, a poor widow : it is humbly hoped that the benevolent (who have in fo liberal a manner come forward with their thoufands) as an encouragement to brave men to offer their fervices to their Xing and Country, will AMR this widow and her fatherlefs children. lam happy to inform you, that after the engagement, the Earl Spencer was fo fortunate as to fall in with the Royal Charlotte, of London, now from North Caro• Tina, a priie to the brig (he had jult engaged, which The left in lat. 43. 57. long. 17. 33.

The Earl Spencer. having fent on (bore the nunded belonging to this place, will proceed for Helford to refit. lam jai informed ) that the lugger has had the audacity to make a fecond appearance off the Lizard, which castled Captain FILAZIR of the Repoli to crowd all fail and give Chace; but the moment the Ranger was difcoVered, the Republican put about (hip, and (leered to the fouthward. She is now nut of light from the (bore, but the cutter con tinues the thace,and it is anxioufly hoped that (he will overtake her, and bring her in. The following pil fer/gets landed From the Earl Spencer, whom Captain irtv was to obliging as to take out of a Swedifis galliot oh the 6th intl. which they, and other paffen gers, &c. of the King George packet, had chartered at Vigo, in order to bring them to Falmouth, viz. Mr. Mums, Mare, Mr. Rosins, Mr. Ammons' Fox, of Falmouth, Mr. Bugg, and Mr. Coxvigz., paffen. gers on board the King George : Captain Cnittv genernufly offered to take out the whole of the crew Of the packet, but they tleclined.—C.apt. Lavigne* brought on (bore the mail from Lilbon laR night out of the Dugg of Cuing/mane packet, and proceeded for Falmouth. P. S. The Rattail hat returned, and Rates, that the lugget was an Englifh privateer. Came in the GallllllT, Captain Bass ; the Si tank Vase. and Pie. ♦IDINCI revenue cutters ; and the Lentil's, of Brißol, Ws Roe Halms mafter, from Cork, with butter, for this port and Plymouth.—Yeaerday the Anna Maria, Captain Bac failed for London. Various opinions are formed refpeaing the fchnotter mid lugger, which appeared in this Bay on Thurfday lal, and which Captain Hass gave in the account I tranfmitted you, but whether they really *ere French privateers (or not), I will not take upon me to de termine. PLTwourn, Seer. t t.—This morning arrived in Cawfand Bay, the LORD Nst.son EaR Indiansan, of London, of :6 guns, Capt. Rosser Srotrtatoons, from Bengal, laden with a very valuable cargo of Piece goods, &c. for London : the was taken about five weeks ago by the Montt French privateer, of 36 guns, after a very (mart action of one hour and 40 minutest during which the loft her mizen-maft, and was otherwife very much difabled in her malts, tails, and riggin& and experienced a lots of many men killed and wounded m among the former wets the Captain's brother, who was a pafenger on board, returning from the EaR Indies, where be had relided =any yearss and a Colonel of thearmy : Come days after her captareb his biajelly's thip SIRAOULL, of 18 guns, Capt. BORER, fell in with her, and kept com pany with her fur Come time, until a favourable op portunity offered for attacking her, which was done with to much fuceefs, that the was loon re-captured, As the was entering Corunnas and the Saaoot.t. came ith her prize this morning: a number of peen gers are on board, and many of them Ladies, return. ing to their native country. It appears that the privateet's advantage over the L^RD NILSON, was in number of men, which en abled them to run her alongfide, and board with fuccefs. The Putter landed here this morning, end At of immediately esprefs for London. Among the wounded arc the Captain and Puffer of the Loan Ns Lcou, and the whole number are Rated to be (even Lille() and a 8 wounded. feveral of them fines dead. I appears that Ile would have efcaped into Corottna, h id not the fquadroa under the command of Sir En. waao PILLER,/ been in fight to prevent her, when the St -GULL had been 19 hours in chece of her. The L.ao Ntason had be= reviosfy engaged four fa veral tames by a Guernfey privateer, which annoyed her very much. The Captain's brother was killed in engaging the Guernfey privateer, and the Colonel by a thot from the SEAGULL.

OFF BOULOGNE, SEPT. B.—We Rill remain on this Ration, every now and then annoying the enemy and interrt.pting them in their labours. A few evenings ago we all flood in (hare abreafi of Bou logne and Portel, viz. our Commodore in the Au- TUMN armed (hip, accompanied by the Dascovsav bomb, BLOODHOUND and ARCHER, and began a heavy cannonade, which was returned from the forts and batteries, and kept up for more than half an hour. The bomb threw feveral (hells into the town, whichl we are certain did confiderable damage. At the in tervals, when the fmoke cleared up, we could fee the men, women, and children flying up the coun try. Towards night the fignal was made to difcon tinue the engagement, upon which we all hauled off the land. Several of the enemy's (hot and (hells fell very near our fquadron ; one (hell burft over our heads, but happily did us no injury. Shells are ter- rible engines of deffrullion. Some days ago the bomb threw one which fell on a houfe in the town and killed 25 perfons. The MIRIAM, at Deptford, is ordered to be fitted out immediately, and to join I(c...ries fgnadroo. The Committee of the Well India Merchants have requefted a convoy may be appointed for the chips bound to the Weft India lands, which has been complied with.

Mr. &lawmen gave Mr. WTI% thirty gui. wens to make the bet. Mr. JonaNam., late of Arrist's Amphitheatre, made his appearance lel night, far the Aril time thee ten years, at the Circus, and was greeted with the molt unbounded applaufe. The vocal powers of this perfornser have long been held in the highdl ellima lion by the public ; and they never Ikons to more ad vantage than in the new comic lyrical addrefs, called " whir Am, 1 or Did in a o#h" which polkas much original humour, and WAS given by that ad mirals burials Gape ith chi happicil effect. DUEL TY. PRIVATE I:ETTER, SFPT. 9. Felix Rourke, John KiNon, and John ilf , Cann, were brought up and received fentence of death.—On this occaion Baron GEORGE addrcffed the prifoners in a moR feeling manner, but particularly Felix Rourke, to whom be reprefented the aggravation which his crime received from the part which he took in the infurredion ; not only committing treafon himfelf, but reducing others to a fimilar crime. Before fentence was pallid, Rourke addreffed the Court in language calculated to convey an impreffior, that he was fuperior to the vulgar herd ; he, however, negatively admitted, that he was a leader of rebellion on the evening of the 23d July, but folemnly pru teßed that he was never concerned in the Billing of blood.—Few, however, of thole who heard him, be lieved that he was fo in any refpeet, whether of in• tention or action, free from the maffacre of that dread ful night. Four prifoners put off their trial till to-morrow, and agreed then to join in their challenges. golipb Doran was then put to the bar and indiled in the ufual terms of comp .ffiag the King's death. &c. &c. in Newftreet, on the 23d July lA.—The principal witnefs againtl him was William Harrow a boy, not 13 years of age, who fwore that he Taw him about ten o'clock or fo, on the evening of the 23d July, march with twenty others through a narrow lane in which witnefs lived, with two pikes on his (boulder ; and on the Monday following, pointed him out to an officer of Major StRICS, and had him taken : the witnefs and the prifoner both worked in the ordnance department Caftle-yard. The defence was an alibi, but the clemency, and mercy, and benignant Juftice of the Officers of the Crown did more in defence of the prifoner than his own witneffes ; for the law officers of the Crown poin ted out to the Court an inconfifiency between the principal witnefs's examination, and the information fworn by him before a bfagiflrate; in confequence of which reprefentation, the Jury without hefitation brought in a verdict of arquittel.—The Court after a very proper exhortation to the prifoner, ordered him immediately to be difcharged. DREADFUL ACCIDENT. On Friday laft a dreadful accident happened at Ream engine, employed to of ill in clearing the works from water at the Tide Mills, now ereaing in the Marth between Greenwich and Woolwich. The engine was on Mr. Terms ace's plan, and worked by the expanfive force of the Ream only, without employing condenfation. Unfortunately the high pretkre of the Ream burß the boiler, and literately blew the engine to pieces; by which accident three men . ' were killed - on the fpot, and three others, all that were there at the time, fo much hurt, that iwo of , them are not axpeaed to recover. It is thought there moll have been Tome neglea on the part oldie pee. pie who attended the engine. It was a resonate cir. cumaance, however, that the accident happened at ' a time when the workmen were at dinner, or a much greater number might have loft their lives. The engines on Mr. TRIVITM ic x's plan require a boiler of ,immenfe firength, for they work with a power foam times equal to 6o pounds on the fqoare inch. (Com. mon engines, even Mr. Wares, feldom work with , more than 51b.) After fuch an accident as this, it j would be no eafy matter to induce manufaaurers to employ engines farnifhed with boilers fimilar to tht one that has thus exploded. We are happy, however, to be able to Rate, that the public will not be deprived of the benefit expelled from the principles on whids that able Engineer has propored to work Item AY? sines ; for another able Engineer, Mr. Woot.t, has ;et invented a boiler confillang of a combination of cylinders, which unite the double advantage of ea. poling a much larger furface to the *aim of the fire, thms boilers on the common couftruaion with a des gree of Rrength equal to any power of learn thee may ever be wined to be ufed, were it even twice that employed in the above engine. The eapio fion was as fudden aid dreadful as that of a po wder mill, and was accompanied with a fiaip lar noire. The Rev. War. Moaner is appointed Chaplahe W the RIPULSS, of 74 guns, Capt.

Gorport, tithe principal Gentkmaft and Inhabitants of that place, to con fi der of the co partitive advantages of a Canal and Railway between London and P th,Enss un 'Cosa Hv a ay. Efq. in the chair. At this Meeting a paper which had been tranfinitted to them by Patrick Drummond, El 4. foil citorfor the Canal, (bung all the adrantagesof *Canal in oppolition to a railway, was read and carefully et. amined. In this paper it was aferted that the Wand& worth and Croydon Railway had coil 64001. per mile. wherein it has not COQ more than 4sool. and that vods coil very little lefs conveyed by the Railway than by the common turnpike road 1 whereas the espence is little more than one half, and will. when completed, be no more than a third. Every fail hi the paper was refuted in a manner fo clear and to fa• tisfadiory to the Meeeting, that they came to an ena. , nimous refoletion, that the authors of it had been very mach atifinfortned, and that the Ratements ware sot warranted by hilts. They refolved therefore, is .conjnaaion with the Gentlemen of Portfrnooth, Chi thence, and Havant, that a Railway would healers beneficial in that line of country than a Canal, and that the Subferiptien be continued for carrying the fame into elk& _ _ _ KwCaW24;On was appoioted to be held at the fame place yeitaday. 3 I raft. te LIM nilar Pl!"' ear that MP like. 1/11,V,,, hag h a ed. d a d to era/ 021. leer ,3 Is. fin.
