SURRENDER OF THORN. THE intelligence transmitted to Mr. Cock- fmrne at Hamburgh, and by him sent to Go vernment, is not confirmed. Some papers assert, that our Minister at Hamburgh only stated an opinion that Dantzic bad fallen. The statement was to the followitig effect -That just as he was writing his letter to Govern- ment, ad vices had been communicated to him by General Tettenbom we believe, of the surrender ot Dantzic by capitulation that the intelligence had come from General Witt- genstein, at Dessau, who knew only the bare fact, but not the details, which, however. lie would send the moment they-reached him." This was the substance of the communication to Mr. Cockburne, which certainly he could not doubt, and which, of course, he trans- mitted to Government. Had it not been con veyed to Government in so positive a way, we should have stated that some doubts were en- P, tertainlupon the subject. To mistake one fortress for another seems strange but it is the fortress of Thorn that has fallen and not Dantzic. A dispatch was received yesterday .from General Stewart at Berlin, dated on the 23d, announcing that Th om. had surrendered by capitu!ation to the Russians. The French part of the garrison were made prisoners of war—the Bavarians were allowed their parole, There was found in the fortress a very large quantity of heavy artillery, which was imme- diately sent off to the besieging army before Dantzic. And hence we hope to hear, ere long, that the latter place has fallen. Thorn, though an important fortress, situated as it is on the direct road from Poland to Berlin, is certainly a much inferior acquisition to Dant- zic, and hence we expect some will consi- tier Thorn as a tritling possession, whilst mag- nifying the consequence of Dantzic, they pour upon us the full tide of their gloomy appre- hensions, because that place is still in the power of the enemy. The advices from Genera! Stewart, and from Hamburgh give us reason to expect hourly inosl important intelligence. Bhicher and General D'Yorck have combined their force, and are understood to have crossed the Saafc, to bring Beauharnois to a battle. Reauhar- lIoisis said to have fallen back from the Saale, it having been ascertained to in: Bonaparte's intention, to try to drive the Allies from the Banks of the Elhe, and thus to make himself al';ilii iiiaster of the mouths of that river and the Weser, cutting off all coiifmrniicaUon from this country, and Deniiiirk 10 join her force to his. It is prohabje that the next advices will bring us tIteiulelligence of a great. battle. Seba-siiaiti has advanced with a e i, considerable force to Luneburg, and DCIrIl berg, and Benkedorff's corps, which were bc- tween the Weser and the Elbe, have again crossed to the right side of the E!hc We understand that TOGO more Swedes have landed, and we trust that the whole Swedish force, with the Crown Prince at their head,, will arrive time enough to take part in the first great buttle.

A melancholy circumstance took place last week at White Croft, Sheffield. —A soldier having arrived with a deserter, put down his firelock, which was loaded, when a young man taking it up (not knowing it was charg- ed) in a joke, presented the piece at his sweet- heart and shot her through the body.

The inhuman murder of the four German Patriots, mentioned in the French Papers, has excited the strongest indignation. A Gen- tleman belonging to the Committee for as- sisting the German Patriots, having read the account of it to the Committee, the following resolution was immediately passed :— "That the Foreign Secretary to the Commit-" ice be requested to write, in orfiri- to ascertain the state of the familieof the unfortunate suffer? ers, viz.:—llirniauu Friese, Repkc Basehen, HirmallnlIenri Nellhans, and Gird Harms; and (hat iiwHeel ¡ate and liberal rei ief be otre red r hem, A melancholy accidenl happened on Satur- day fast on board the Salvador del Nitilli(io J.

Mourning. The colour descriptive of Mourning differs according to persons and countries. In Italy the women once mourn- ed in white, and men in brown. In China they wear white; in Turkey, Syria, Cappado- cia, and Armenia, celestial blue; in Egypt, yellow,or the colour of a dead leaf; the Ethio- pians wear grey; and in Europe the mourn- ing colour is blacle-While is all emblem of purity; celestial blue denotes the .place they wish to go to after death yellow, or the dead leaf, indicates that death is the end of huinau,. hope, and that man falls as a leaf ,grey signi- fies the earth to which the dead return; and black marks the absence of life, because itis the want of light.

The above is less efficacious where the complaint has been brought, on by excess of drinking. The Duke of Cumberland left town on Wed- nesday to proceed on his way to Berlin. The Royal Duke left iiii apartmenis in St. James's Palace about one o'oieck, and walked to Carl- ton House to take leave of the Prince Regent.

Spirits of I'ior in ■ Grun.— An experienced chemist, Mr. Knox, brother to the Bishop of UerrJ, whose accuracy may be depended upon has lately submitted this celebrated to analysis, and found, as might have been expect- ed, that t contained a very unusual quantity of saccharine matter, one pound in twenty not nnlikolreacie in colour, and having very much t he taste of a mixture of that substance with currant jelly. A trial was lhen made to as certain the quantity of sjiifii. that cwf id be obtained from the same material, when, on the first attempt from 401bs. of florin ha-y ,seven pints of verypalatable spirit was distilled,m uch superior to common whiskey and far better than the produce of any of the other kinds of grasses, besides being; four times more-ahua d.int. — Belfast Aews Letter. j General IncUmire Biii)c Bill flow be- f,)re EarliamclIl, for facilitating the Inclosure of Waste Lands, provides, that proprietors of Common, Commonable & Undivided Grounds and "Waste Lands, i,l lo wish to enclose, may, by presenting a Petition to the Justices at the Quarter Sessions (after complying with cer- tain regulations) receive authority from such Justices, to proceed ijiciosiiig, provided the owner of such waste grounds, and b roe-fifths- in value of the proprietors of the lands, &e. within the district proposed, to be enclosed, have given their consent thereto The con. sent being obtained, the busi- ness of the Inclosure is to be managed by a Commissioner or Commissioners named in the Petition? and any one who is dissatisifed Willi their determination on any point, has an ap- peal to a Court of Law. The lords or owners of the soil are to have a compensation for their right in it, and the owners of tithes arc also to have a c jmpensafion in lieu of tithes. The Commissioners' accounts of receipts and disbursements are to he annually laid before the Justices of lke Peace for their inspection. Improved Anchor.—'R. Perisig, Esq. clerk of the cheque* of his Majesty's dock-yard ai Plymouth, has invented an anchor on an im- proved principle. A tria! of its qualities, under that genilemart's inspection, took place: yes- terdav, before Sir It. Calder, Port-Admiral, Commissioner Faushawe, and the Olfieers of the Dock-yard. An anchor, on the old prin- ciple, weighing 24-cwt. having yielded, by a strong purchase, to its superior power an- other, uf greater weight, was afterwards tried wifhequal dIed. To-day, at i 1 o'clock, a third experiment will takeplace, with one of still greater dimensions. Many of this geif- I-e t- c dem"w'g admirable improvements have been I recently adopted bv the Admiralty* and we hope ihepreseut will prove equally successful. On Saturday some further triak of strength were made, with aiclioi-s of very superior dimension's. The weight of the improved au- chor is 24cwt. lq, 3 lb. that opposed to it, made on the old principle, weighed 24cwt. lqr. 18lb. which broke in the shanks; the second, 24cwt. 5qr. 3lb. yielded after a very strong purchase, in both arm and shank, at one and the same instant the fourth, 35cwt. Iqr. 171b. when, after a most sanguinary purchase both the anchors yielded to each other. T'1t5 improved anchor broke in the shank, whilst the heavier one was ill the act of giving way, having partly broken in the same situation. The arm of Mr. Pering's anchor, although so much strained by the aforesaid expcrilenls, had no susceptible appearance of being \11 the least disttii-l)ed.-Aditilral Sir Robert Caldei, Commissioner F iushawe, Admiral Martin, and a great number of officers of the army an navy, were present on this occasion, and ap- peared highly gratified at Mr. Pering's suc- cess. On Tuesday morning R. Barker, a Royal Marine, of the Hermes, sentenced to death for striking his superior officer, was taken from the Salvadordel Mundo, in Hamoaze, on board the Bittern sloop in Barne Pool, in order to undergo his sentence. All the boats j of the fleet attended, and the prisoner wis brought, on the platform for execution, and I the cap pulled over his eyes, when the officer on duty ordered the cap to be taken off his face, and read to him the Prince Regent's pardon The poor fellow, who, we under- stand, bears a good character, except in this Unfortunate circumstance, was so affected, that he fell on his kness directly, and returned thanks to God for the lenity shewn him by the Prince Regent.

MO XT IIL r AGRICULTURAL REPORT FOR APRIL. Sowing proceeds with rapidity, but much re- mains to he done. In all prohability the seed will he got in during the present season in the most perfect state, the lands having worked well throughout, from the dryness and mellowness of the soil. A greater breadth of land by many thou- sands of'acres, than ever before known upon this islalHI, has been this season prepared for pota- toe planting, which has already advanced in the forward districts. The spring crops all look well, but the harley and oats will soon be in want of rain. The hop vines are said locome up strong and healthy. The wheats still appear thin, which will be no sort of disadvantage to the crop should the remainder of the spring prove warm and ge- nial, with moderate -showers. The fruit-trees loaded with blossoms, and, notwithstanding the continuance of collI north and easterly winds, hi- therto no great appearance of blight. Cattle markets, both for fat and lean stock, somewhat reduced in price. Milch cows and cart horses never before at such a price in Britain; cows just calved have been sold at351. horses from 631. to 10QI. each. This extraordi- nary priec, it may be hoped, will promote the use of oxen for labour, one of the greatest "sav- ings both individual and national, in the whole range of rurat ceconomy. The distemper arising from atmospheric iníhlenza in hors'cs, has pre- vailed considerably this spring. The rot in sheep has fortunately ceased, and the lambing has been tlms far, sKcccssfnl.

■WIVES OF LITERARY MEN. The wife of Barclay, author of "The Argenis," considered iversclfas the wife of a demi-god. This appeared glaringly after his death: for Cardinal Rarberiiii having' erected a monument to memory of his tutor, next to the tomb of Bar- clay, Barclay was so irritated at this that she demolished his monument, brought, home his bus/, and declared that (he ashes of so great a genius as her hÙshand should never he placed beside so villainous a pedagogue. Salmnsius's wife "as a termagant; and Chris.- litm said she ail mi red his patience more than his erudition, married to such a shrew.

At length in despair, Albert ran away from his Ti- siphone she wheedled him back, and not long afterwards he fell a victim to her furious dispo- sition. He died of a broken heart! It is told of Bergham's wife that she would not allow that excellent artist to quit his occupations; and she contrived an odd expedient to detect his indo- lence. The artist worked in a room above her; ever and anon she roused him by thumpiug a stick against the ceiling, while the obsdient Bergham answered by stamping his foot, to s&» tisfy Mrs. Bergham that. tie was not napping.
