ftogtscrtpi WEDNESDAY, EVENING July SI. Aditiiral Lord Exrnouth's squadron was off Fal- inouth on Sunday last. The wind was as favoura- ble as it could blow. Actfbunts from Vienna State that thp. A it at tin h Government has sold the ships of the line at Triest and Venice to that of Denmark. These ships were constructed by the orders of Bonaparte, and found at Venice on its occupation ay the Austrians; As the frigates and smaller vessels are not alluded to, it is evident that Austria means to retain the latter description of vessels for the protection of the Adriatic, but has renounced every idea ofbecom* ing a naval power. Letters from Vera Cruz to the 1st of June, and from Mexico to the 12rh of May, in referring to accounts from Guayaquil of the 18th of February, mention that Admir.il Brown, with the Buenos Avres squadron, afier blockading Lima, and taking many valuable prizes, bad proceeded off the river of Guayaquil, where he Look the batteries which defended the entrance. lie, then proceeded up with a brig and schooner to capture the city, but the brig having gut aground, he fell into the hands of the Spaniards. His squadron then anchored Dear the small island of Puna, at the entrance of the river, and his First Lieutenant undertook to negociate for an exchange, offering to give np the new Guvernor of and two Members of the High Court of Justice, the squadron had cap- turprj offCallas, and it was expected Brown would be exchanged for them. Accounts had been re- ceived at Vera Crirz that the Government, of the United States had resolved that the flags of the independent puints of Spanish America should be admitted into all the ports of the Union. Several vessels from the United States had arrived at Pnnta de Piedra, the port belonging to the Independents on the Mexican coast, and among them the schooners Cayman) and General Bolivar, convoyed by an American brig of war. Their cargoes con- sisted of arms and military stores; and they also had on board many voiunteers going to join the Mexican patriots. Two British brigs of war, called the Royalist and Bermuda, at Vera Cruz, had offered their services tu the Spanish Governor to act against the Independents, and had left the port to cruize against the privateers of the latter. It is stated that the motive of this offer -wa, an expectation to receive permission to take in silver for Europe. Extract of a letter from Barcelona, dated July 1\—" A deputation has gone from this city, to pray his Majesty to prevent the introduction of English merchandize, which destroys Spanish in- dustry, and produces nothing to the revenue, because the Custom house officers are easily cor- fupted by the English traders. With the same view of favouring Spanish industry, an order has been issued to prevent the entrance of foreign artisans in matters of luxury and fashion. In con- sequence of this, several Frenchmen, who lately presented themselves at the pass of Junquera, were refused admisbiou on this very ground." A private letter from Paris, dated on Saturday, mentions a rumour of the arrival of an overland dispatch from India to the French Ambassador at Constantinople, by whom it was transmitted to the French Government, of the defeat of our troops by those of Nepaul. We trust and believe there is no foundation tor the rumour. An American Captain at Calcutta writes to his friend in London as follows. Calcutta, March 181$. "I imagine that you do not feel much interest in the politics of this country; but a.s Gen. Ochter- 100y is a Yankee (from Boston originally), 1 must tell you that he has commenced his second cam- paign against the Nepaulese with his usnalabiIity and success we call him 4 the Wellington of the Easthe will subdue them this year.—Three country ships have been burnt by the Lascars within a month, and two more partially destroyed one at Java, and three attempted at Calcutta. Some discontents among the Lascars occasioned these acts ofvillany." The rumour is revived of the solicitude expressed by ap illustrious personage to bring the question of a divorce, by way ot bill, into the House of Lords. A female, a Swiss by birth, is said to be a material witness. We have heard that several of the Minis- ters have decidcdty declared their, unwillingness to agitate the delicate question and that this onty has prevented the trial of a measure that might have been attended with the most important con- Sequences to the country. We can venture tosay, that there is no truth in the report of her Royal Highness the Princess Charlotte having suffered a miscarriage.—Morning Chronicle. b The British subjects now in France, according to the compilation of a person who has great means of ascertaining their numbers, it is thought, amount to about 13,000 public opinion at home had, we Relieve, estimated them much higher.

THE C A M BE IAN. SWANSEA, FRIDAY, AuausT 2. Extract of a Letter from London, dated Eight o Clock Wednesday Evening last. "To¡,day Dernerftra papers have reached us to thcendof May. On the intelligence of the insur- rection atBarhadoe.s arriving ia that island, the negroes discovered a restless disposition as if in- clined to follow-the example. The Governor im- mediately put forth a spirited proclamation, ad- dressed to the United Settlements of Detnerafa and Essequebo, with their dependencies, in which he pointed out the error the slaves at B lrbadoes were' under, and the negroes after this betrayed no symptoms of disorderly conduct. Letters bad reached Demerara from Havannah, which inenxion that nearly all the transports which had conveyed Mariiio's army to the Spanish Main, and had afterwards gone to the Hdvannah in searcls of freight, had been taken up to go to the coast ot Africa to bring away slaves, and that as mtny as forty vessels had gone in pursuit of this tr.tmc.— The Spaniards seem resolved to make hay whilst the sun shines, and during the time in which they have been allowed so much latitude by the other powers. "Letters received to-day from Leghorn of the 13th ult. mention tha.t,the Ex-Kingof Holland was living retired at Lucca bath. He wa.s without either retinue or equipag«, nor did his ambition require any to make hi;n happy The Empress Muria Lotiisa was expected at Lueca hath about the 14th, for the benefit of sea-bathing: her uncle, she GranrJ Duke, was expected to accompany her. We have received no news to-day either to confi: m or contradict the statement that our troops in India have met with a defeat. "Accounts may shortly be expected to reach town relative to the proceedings of Lord Extnouth and the Expedition under his command, destined to chastise the upstart and insolent Al^erines. It & is supposed that no great resistance will be made, and that his Lordship will he able to effect the object he has in view, in a much shorter time than was at first imagined.

George De Cardonnel, son and heir of Lord Dynevor, will attain his 21st year on Mon- day next. We are gratified to learn that Mr, Madocks and Lord Kirkwall have lately moved in the House of Commons for returns of the duties paid on w Coals and Culm carried coastwise in the Principa- lity of Wales, and pledged themselves next Session to bring in a Bill for the remission of those oppres- sive and injurious duties. We remember with, great gratitude the exertions of Mr. Madocks ia 1811 to effect the same object, and that he suc- ceeded in carrying the measure through the House of Commons, though it was afterwards lost in the House of Lords by a majority of only one vote. We sincerely and ardently hope, that every true friend of the Principality and all our Members wiU give every assistance in forwarding an object of so rnuch consequence to the agricultural interest, and to every class pf Welchmen, rich or poor. As it so nearly succeeded before, we trust, a strong pull altogether" will ensure its accomplishment. 1.1 f His Royal Highness the Prince Regent hath been pleased, in the name and on the behalf of his Mnjesty, to give and grant unto Thomas Howel, of Gins bury, in the county of Radnor, Esq. his Majesty's royal licence and authority, that he and his issue may as.suir?% and take the surname of iiiigiies only, and also bear aud use the armorial r ensigns of Hughes, pursuant to the direction of the last will and testament of his maternal grand- father, the Rev. JoIuí Húghes; late of Glasbiiry at( )resai(i .-Gazette. On Wednesday evening an inquest was held by Dr. J. C. Collins, at Morriitori, near Swansea, on the body of a boy named John Powell, who waS killed bya, stone falling ori his head.—Verdict, accidental death. Wynristay Agricultural Meeting is fixed for the 0 totii of September.—The tenantry of the gallant and patriotic Sir Watkiu perceive with satisfaction and pride, that he is not among the number of those who are spending their rental upon a foreign shore, but that he is encouraging the droopidg Spirit of agriculture by his example and exertions, ALnimauth.—Those of our readers who have made the excursion down the romuuic river Wye, from Ross to Monmouth; or visited theKymin Pavillion, which crowns one of the most beautiful eminences which environ that town, will call to their re- collection the grami and extensive woodland scenery, which lies on the banks of that river at the above places; and which adds so much to the fine possessions of the Right Hon. Lord Gage, in the parish ol NewUnd and of Stanton, Gloucester- shire. Here, tor some time, past, several Sur- veyors have been employed in taking a valuation of the timber; and it is stated, that it is either to become the property of the Crown, for adding to the -Forest of Dean, to which it adjoins, with a view of increasing the oaks for the use of the Royal Navy; or what is more sincerely wished and be- tieve i, for the Hero of Waterloo. We conceive that the kingdom of England could not appropri- ate a spot so intimately blended with the feelings of this distinguished warcior, as this fine estate- near to the shades of whose groves the Fifth Harry was nurtured; and when the immortal Hero of the Nile, as well as his brave compeer in arms, the gallant Sir Samuel Hood, visited the pleasnrealde mount of the Pavillion, they pronounced their most rapturous admiration on viewing the stately trees which every where met the *igin from this much frequented situation. How dear then must they be to the mind of a Wellington, who has achieved on the plains of Waterloo what the Monmouthshire Prince performed at Agiricourt, and what h ts not since been accomplished, that is, conquered Finance on her own territory! We, as admirers of his great merits, feel warm in the ex- pectation, that what the people of England so amply and freely granted, will be received by the Conqueror of Waterloo with thore feelings which animated the bosoms of the before-mentioned NavallIeroes (now no more); and that the county of Gloucester will hue tlwhonourot being selected for the appropriation of the.sum voted by Parlia ment, to purchase a property compatible with the dignity of him who has deserved so well of all the world. Duke of Wellington's Arrival at Monmoul h.-On Thursday afternoon, about three o'clock, the Du-kc t of Wellington, accompanied by Lord Apsley, aud one of his Aid-de-Camps, arrived in his travelling carnage and four, at Avery's Hotel, Monmouth; where, after taking a hasty dinner, his Grace and friends mounted their horses, which had been sent for tha.t purpose in the morning, and proceeded by way of the Kymin-Pavillion, to Stanton, Eastbach, and from thence joined the carriage at Huntley, on their return to Cheltenham. No person had been informed of the Duke being in Monmouth, till a short time prior to his departure; but the post- boys from R JSS mentioning their suspicions that it was the illustrious hero, some individuals assem- bled in the inn-yard to view his Grace, who only remained there a. few minutes before he mounted his charger, and rode slowly through the town, until fii the stones, when he proceeded at great speed by the route above mentioned. The female part of a family of forwne, resident in Monmouth, received respectful notice from the Duke, as he passed the vestibule into the yard, and in the most polite manner he gave his hand to some few others but his dcpartule was so sudden, that it created a general sensation of regret among all ranks of the inhabitants." The Mayor waited on his Grace at a very short notice, for the purpose of inviting him to a pablic dinner with the Corpora. tion, and lamented that they had not been made acquainted* with his visit, that the same honours would have been shewn to him as those paid to the Hero ot the Nile, on a former occasion. His Grace expressed himself much obliged by the flat- tering attention of Mayor, but observed, he was then so much engaged thu he coull not ac- cept the offer; if he staid in the country, however, he would avail himself of that pleasure; and, after remarking on the" tine country" by which he was surrounded, took his leave, again thanking the Magistrate for his politeness. :1 a On Saturday morning the Duke proceeded to Bristo!, where h? dined with the Corporation, after being presented in form with the freedom of. that city, and that of the Society of Merchant- Venturers, each in a gold box. His Grace left Bristol after dinner, and passed through Gloucester at half-past two o'clock o,i Sunday morning. We are concerned to hear that the Chipping Norton Bank of Messrs. Corgan, Matthews, and Co. has for the present suspended its payments. —Oxford Herald. The Tamworth Bank, Paget and Co. has stopped payment; and Loraine and Co. of Newcastle Bank, have intimated their intention of winding up their accounts and closing the coiicerii.- bid. Of all the pedestrians who have distinguished themselves since walking became the rage of the day, the most extraordinary is a Welsh drovfcr, who has just finished a matchless performance at Newmarket. This young man is only 22 years of age. and does not exceed in weight eig'ht stone; he completed his task on Friday night, at six o'clock, of 1008 miles in 18 days; walking at the rate of 56 miltts per day for the whole time. The young man, when he commenced the undertaking, was completely out of condition; lIetinished his daily labour each day precisely at six o'clock, perform- ing exactly 56 miles. On the last day of his per- formance, having finished his usual number of miles, his friends proposed that he should walk, the same evening, six miles within the hour. Extraordinary Circumstance.A young woman, who keeps the turnpike near Heniey-upon-Thatnes Oxfordshire, and who has been married four years, has nowntne children, who are all living and well. At her first lyiog- she-had three [children; at her second three; at her third two; and at her fourth and last one. The circumstance has astonished tbe whole neighbourhood, and is supposed tu be without a. paralietia any age or country. ——1—
