i..Æ!atI COURT OF EXCHEQUER. SITTINGS AFTER TRINITY TERM, 1810, BEFORE THE LORD CHIEF BARON MACDONALD. SEVERAL Prosecutions were instituted by the Attorney -Gen e ral against different Glovers and Silk- Mercers, to recover the Penalty ot £ 200 each, for having in their possession Foreign Leather Gloves and Bandunnoe Silk Handkerchiefs. The Solicitor-General, who conducted the Prosecutions, stated to the Jury, that offences of this nature must be pro- secuted with considerable severity, as the Importation of Goods of this description was highly injurious to the Manu- factures of this Country, and to the labouring Persons who are employed therein, and depend upon it for their subsist- cilce that if one Tradesman sold them, others were natu- rally induced to do so too that they would otherwise lose their Custom, sis Persons who were prejudiced in favour of foreignarticles would frequent that Shop where the foreign articles were sold, and the consequence would be that they who obeyed the Lavv would suffcrby that obedience, and they who violated the law would profit by the vioiation that he therefore thought it an obligation upon those who are to protect the Reyenue to put the law in strict force, in order that all Traders may be on the same footing, and the British Manufacturers protected—And that, for the future, no mitigation whatever would be made in the Penalties that might be strictly incurred.—In the above Cases, Penalties to a considerable amount were recovered.

WEEKLY RETROSPECT. An examination of His Majesty's Physicians took place on W ednesday, at which Sixty-eight members ,,f tl-ib Privy Council attended. The whole of the Pivsidians were present except Dr. Baillie, who was lei in attendance with his Majesty. We understand tliae was a considerable difference of opinion, but l hatthe result of their deliberations was, that there was "very probability of His Majesty being shortly I able t) attend to public business! I It issupposed Ministers will adopt the prelimi- nary coirse pursued at the end of the first period in 1788. ?he report of the Privy Council will be laid on the Tible of the two Houses when in all pro- bability, i motion will be made on each, that the Physicians be examined by a Committee of their own Membtrs, and there will be a further short adjournment proposed.. to give time for this Com- mittee to male their report. Except the dispatch from LoM Wellington in- serted in Saturday's Gazette, ther has not been any official intelligence from Portu»al since our last number. Some interesting information will be found in the private correspondence from that quarter. The French Papers contain nothing fJ impor- tance either from Spain or Portugal. Tie late storms have done considerable damage to thtgmall craft on the French Co"t. The accounts from India., we understand, art fq- vourable, as far as they regard the internal tranqui- lity of the country, and the -dispositions of the n- five powers. The party of Gopaul Sing, by whici it was lately disturbed, has been completely destroy- ed by a detachmentpf cavalry, under the command of Lieutenant-Colonel Browne. Meer Khan, who was suspected of meditating an attack on Bundle- cund, or an incursiqji into Bezar, appears to haye renounced his project, as the jorce which Was col- lected at the first of these places to oppose.him had broken up and gone into cantonments. We understand that the 5ank of England is drawing out an account of the balance in hand due to the subjects under the influence of .Borftparte on the Continent, it being, it is said, ÍQ. contemplation to withold the payment of interest and principal, until the termination of the war. The last intelli- gence from the French Coast states that the French Government are willing to grant licences for ships to proceed to Holland on the same terms as they are allowed to trade to France. No reply has yet. been given to the Committee or American Ments who waited on Ministers, to learn their determination as to the rescinding of the Orders in Council. We learn, however, that. an application on the |ame subject is to be made 4° Government from a higher quarter. We understand that a reputable body of Mer- chants have waitgd upon Government, to represent the great distresses the Commercial and Manufac- turing interests at present labour under and tkiat an issue of Exchequer Bills, by way of loan, wili be -gi-aiited, on the security of Colonial produce and other merchandize, according to the principle upon which relief was so powerfully afforded by a similar measure in 1J93. The King of Sweden has obtained permission to remain in this country as a private Gentleman, and _t'IMWSW'I'I" to go where lie pleases he refuses all pecuniary aid or pomp. He is attended by a confidential friend, an Englishman, and one domestic. He means to view all our great cities and manufactories. He dined and spent, the evening with the Prince of Conde and all the Bourbons, at Wimbledon, on Saturday last. Extract of a .Letter from our Correspondent in London, dated Eight- o'-Glofk Wednesday Evening. By the Persian sloop of War- arrived from Oporto and Vigo, we have been favoured with communications from the former place to the 5th inst. j and although the Evening papers inform us, that no official intelli- gence has been received from any of the allied armies, we are enabled- to exc-ltisiyely, that an offi- cial communication has been received at Oporto,which we deem of considerable importance, inasmuch as it appri^s us of the military operations taking- place in the rear of the French army. The document, we are assured, comes direct from Col. Trant, but whether addressed to the Governor of Oporto, or anv other person, the letter inclosing it has omitted to state.—- We here subjoin a copy (OFFICIAL.) COIMBRA, OCT. 28,1810. My Friend- have news from Abrantes of the 24th, from the Zezere of the same date, and the neigh- bourhood of Thomar to the 26th; all the accounts agree in stating, that the enemy appeared desirous to secure the line of his retreat, by crossing the Ze- zere, or by the way of Cabassos and Figueiro dos Nu- hos, that is by the way of Thomar (the old road) the enemy are daily repulsed from Punhete, and from other parts of the Banks of the Zezere. I have no news from Marshal Beresford more recent than the 20th, when he wrote me in fult confidence of victory, if the enemy should offer battle. But although we have been in sight of him for 10 days, he has not dared to molest us. It appears from all we can col- lect, that the French are much disgusted with the Campaign, and this they publicly avow, even in the army itself. -YoLir's, &c. &c. N. TRANT. P. S. Silveira on the 27th was at Cabeso Negro, and on the 28th he summoned the town to surrender, or that he would put all co the sword, according t the orders received from the Commander-in-Chic Lord Wellington.' We have been favoured with the perusal of va rious letters from Oporto to the 5th instant, whici- mention generally, that the French had been repulse* in more than one attempt to cross the Zezere, whethei they ultimately succeeded or not, will appear by sub- sequent advices. The Persian left Vigo as late as th' 1St instant, but from thence she has brought nothing new. We have received letters■ fromOibsaltar of various dates, the latest to the loth instariVyfrom Cadiz to th 16th, and from Alicant to the 23rd October all ci thefti relate to the progress of the fever at those re- spective places. From the former place, as win ap- pear by authentic letters from theace, the fever liii scarcely been felt (OFFICIAL.) GIBRALTAR, NOV. 4, J8LO. The Board of Health, established by hioCxcei- tency the Lieutenant Governor, after r,-cei-ng th Reports of the Medical Gentlemen of this Garrison, are happy in having it in tl.r power to state, that'tl', Fever which, according to the said reports, did exisi is diminished in its influence, and that, except in th Lazaretto, there are now no cases existing on slioie- and that only three cases occrred in the Bay sine, '-iie last report.

The fever is believed not now to be in any ship in the Bay, or on shore, though some few{ people who have died in the course of The last month have been thought by most of the medical men to havg died of the^ever, that opinion is treated very slightly by many people, and really believed by few. The communica- tion still continues shut, and I fear from the news from Carthagena and Cadiz, where the sickness conti- nues much as awal, we shall not haveithe communi- ation completely free until the New Year. Tl^| fe- vr at Cadiz is by ho meaffs very serious, and at Car- ation completely free until the New Year. Tl^| fe- vr at Cadiz is by fio meaffs very serious, and at Car- ^Vena has not at the worst exceec^l halt the number Ul Saths you mention in yours or the zza int. yet so longqsthere is any thing remaining of it, I dare to say ot. post will continue shut, as eU-as our comuui- nicatioby land.

It may be gratifying to the votaries of the an- cient British Muse, to be informed that the Ret. Edward Hughes, Caerwys, in Flintshire, and the Rev. Walter Davieg, of M^nafon, in Montgomery- shire, have each been presented with an elegant Silver Cup, as a compliment for their Poems on the Jubilee, recited at St. Asaph, oil the 84th of last June. The Cups were given,t we understand, by Edward Llovd, Esq. of Cefn; the Rev. R. B. Clough, of Denbigh Castle; the Rev. Peter Whit* ley, and the Rev. Robert Thomas, Vicar of St. Asaph.
