Friday night, in ecnfequence of his ma •eftjA raeflage to parliament on Wcdnefday, lord Henry Pett), brought forward a pio pofiticn relative tothc new arrangement and ’ncrcafe of the annuities provided for the maintenance of the younger branches of the foyal family, except the duke cf York, who inconfequence of the ample provision made for • him by parliament, had waved any further ( 'aim on the liberality of the country.

July 18. We learn from Maples, that Vesuvius con ftnucf to rage. Th#fcrr.tcT still difcliargcs a great quantity cf flones, resembling Inil. On -the sth and 6 h a continual nnife was heard extremely loud, while the thick cloud tb»t enveloped the fommit of the mountain was alternately penetrated by flaflics of fire, arnsrlngly vivid, rcfcmMing lightning. The coutfc of the lava ran towards the Terre del Greco, and along the eminence upon which the Cloister of Cmnalduha is situated, k has extended to the dillancc of four miles, de- It toying all the trees, vineyards, and habi tations it has met wtill in its course. Just row {'ays an account of June ift.) it has reached the high road in the neighborhood of Terre del Greco, while a great number of strangers and curious persons are reputing to the spot to be witrefifas of the singular phe nomenon, Tlia Terre del Greco is (ituated at the foot of Vesuvius, with a population cf ?5,000 fouls, JUI.Y 24. . Extravagant as the rumor received via dials urgh was fuppofctl to he, it ftetrs a prevalent report on the continet that the Porte has tmde an aftual transfer of Egypt to France. From private intelligence which has reached us from the Continent, we hav« tea Ton to think that the Porte has completely abandoned hetfelf to France, and that Hie is on the point of concluding a treaty cf alii. / anc; with her. , There can be no ft longer fydiptom of the approaching diffolmion of the Tut kith power in Europe. From the preparations making by Rufiia and Austria, as well as by France, we (hould not be surprised to hear that partition was made, before thirc months, between those powers, of all the Turkilh European poißffions, JItL.Y 2J. It is reported that Lord Henry Petty will retire from the Chancellorship of the Exchequer soon after the prorogation. This will still further weaken the power of the Toxincs in the Cabinet. PRINCESS OF WALES. Some particulars rcfprfting the nature and result of the imparant inquiry which has been ioftituted into the conduft of an illus. trio us Female are in circulation among the higher circles. The examinations are said to have been confined to two points; the firft refpefting th; birth and parentage of a child of four years old, educated under the immediate proteftidn of the Royal person in quell ion ; the next as »o the general difere tion of her conduft. The infant is afeer txined, by reference to the regittry, and to its parents, as well as by the concurrent testimony of every pcrfnn examined on the creation, to he the child of persons in a very humble r-nk of life at Deptford, and to have been maintained and educated by the Princess on die purest and most amiable principles of Charity and Benevolence. Go the fcc»md head a large mTs of evi dence, we-underftafid has been bre’t forward, ' in the conrfe of which most of -he persons in her Royal Highncf's Houfdiold have been examined, The whole «f the report has been prefenlcd to his Ma jelly, who has ordered copies to he furnifhed to the two .Royal persons personally inter* fted in the result of tji: invrfligation. The commif lioners to whom this delicate enquiry was confined, were the Lord Chancellor, Earl Spencer, and Lord Grenville. PARIS, July 24. Tt is averted, that t n the 15th of this -month, the difeufliona which exiltcd for the arrangement of the affairs of Germany were terminated, and that the Ministers of the Kings of Bavaria and Wirteraberg, the Elcftor of Baden, the Landgrave of Hefl'c.

It is dated through the medium of the federal prints, that “ his mod Catholic mtjelly has renewed and. continued the ap pointment of the Marquis Yrujo as minilter to this country”—“ Tills meafurc of the Spanish court,” it is added, “ can be eon lidered in no other point of vi«w than as a so!! and entire approbation of the condud ( of the Marquis towards this government.” It is molt probable »hat this annunciation is from the Marquis himftlf. If so, it is entitled to little credit; for the man who has heretofore so fhnmeiully distorted fafls, and so grossly mifreprefentjd the meafurei of our government, may miftate, and pro baly has mi dated, in this inftancc, the moafure cf his own.

To the Citizens of Columbia Cottniy • 4 YOU have been very cautiously and timely reminded,, fellow citizens, by a wri ter in the Herald of the 25th inftart, who profdTes to love your intcrcft, and wellbe ing at heart; of the faft approaching era, when we will again be called upon, to give in our fuffrages, for mctnbeis to represent us in ths national as well as ftatc legislature. Those timely obfer vat ions are accompanied with all that heft of fuperciiicus and irvec. tive animadversions, which natural}' flow from an envious and wicked mind ; against a person of decided merit, and (mqucftiona* ble weight in this county. This renewn'd Mr. Cato, the writer I refer to at this time j who he is I know ret, nor do 1 knew any thing of his character ; therefore I hope it will ndt he deemed criminal in me, to be governed in what I may fay cflhe gentle man, by the specimen he has given cf him fclf. in (htr firft plr.ce then, fmcc there is ho law againll thinking, 1 an ihduccd to be lieve, tiwtt this fa id Cato, from the malevo lent disposition he seems to pdTefs, and the party he appears to efpnife, together with the low wiiicifms that principally compofc his address to yeti; iruft be a graduate in the femirary of fct:rrility and chicanery ; erd has no detihr, tirres without number, at‘td his part, upon the iheatieol In pocrify, with his fellow cmilarics, under the tuition and foledinftion of ihe wife proved Peter * I am fomeivhat fearful, that this learned Cato, When he was getting his diploma ccnfefed upon him, by the r l luficea of the above femirary, he was net critically exam ined on rhe dead languages, lincc be appears not to have made any great proficiency in writing la tin ; however, it is a very great 3cubt with me whether he knows a word of it, as I am pretty well convinced that his tmor is ignorant cf that branch ofcollegiare fudy hißtlelf ; —But as he appears to be a profrfied hand at propounding riddles, I 1 think it weald be doing cur country a piece of fervite, ferns to cncCurage him ih that fcicnce, as it appears completely adopted .to his extraordinary genius.—lt very much galls the tender feelings of my friend Cato, to fee prcfefibr Simms, (as he is pleased to call him) pntrenifed by so many refpe&able citizens of Columbia. Being entirely void of any accusation that could pofiibly militate aginft the public charather of Mr. Simms; he has .fwbfiituted and given vent, to that low, groveling disposition, which he pofiiffes; and endeavoured to trace the conduit of that gentleman, through all the cvcluticns cf his private and domcftic retirement, with a hope to (indfomcthing, rp:*c which he might dif cfearge, the dark and insidious consents of his ir flared brain* He proceeds to inform you, that a few weeks part, Mr. Simms had the prcTnmpticn to collctl a number of citi zens (lefprftable no doubt) at his own hoirfe for the purpose, he fays, of making choice of a county member, to fill the vacancy oc« cafioned by his resignation* C h envious and malevolent Cato ; to come forward in pub lic, with as much audacity (is an ealtern monarch would command one (This fubjefls) and endeaveur to stab the reputation, of an honest and upright citizen 5 who has for ma ny years part deferred well of his conftiiu lucnss ; without the lead shadow or founda tion of accusation ; with all those opprobrious insinuations; and adulating afiiraulations, that could pofßbly fail from the pen of an Ignoramus, I Admitting this coilcciicn to have taken pb:ce 3s above Mated, (which is nothing more th.-:p the prerogative of every honest arid ci. vil man) decs it not plainly (hew to the. peo pls at large, that Mr. Simms is deeply inte reded for the public welfare, and particular ly for his former conrtiruents, by getting the advice of the colledled wisdom ot the ecanty on this important pc.cafion ? Is it not, I fay, a clear demonstration, that he does not wilh such petifogging scribblers as Mr. Cato, or criy cf his pregenetors in the black art, to be honoted with his feat, or crowned with the pofleftien cf Legillative authority ? To which every enlightened and unbilled citi zen, will ar.fwej in the affirmative, andap. piaud such equitable and honorable proceed irgs.
