LONDON,. July ** TH E Duke de Harcourt, a few days ago, having laid before the King of France an v estimate of the annual expence for educating the Dauphin, amounting to 1,800,000 livres, the King threw it on the table with inoigiumt emotion, and exclaimed, M lam tjien surrounded by peo ple Who seek to-deceive me.” —The Duke, pale and trembling, thought this was spoken of him ; blit the Monarch recovering himfelf laid, “ Are you fute of the exaftnels of your account “ Sire, replied the Duke, I am certain j and I dare allure your Majesty, that it is impoflible to put more economy on the education of the Dauphin.” The King immediately fetched the accounts from 1782 to 1786, which he ihewed to the Duke, whereby it appeared that the education of the Dauphin had been charged at the medium of five millions and a half per annum- ‘The 4 Monarch then paid tome hand fume • compliments to the Duke for his deli cacy and dffintereftednefs. 'The plague increases daily at Algiers, and has caused the moll tcnible ravages. On the iad of lift month there died, in the space of 24 houis-, i 1 Christians, 27 Jews, and 148 Moors. Since that time the daily mortality has borne much the fame proportion ; and, by calculating the total of the people carried off since the new year, it is computed that, in the courle of the month of January, the number was 335 persons, 557 in February, 1534 in March, and 3711 in April; together • 6137, of whom 140 were Christians. To this number must be added those who died in the four months preceeding that 10 which the pe stilence broke out} <fo that it is not furpriling that whole ■villages and diftrids arc already depopulated It is with real concern we inform the public, that the present Greenland season has proved the most dil'aftrous one the adventurers in that fi lhery have experienced for many years. By ac-, counts already received-it appears that 14 ftups have periihed in the ice; and there is too much reason to fear that* more have bcea loft, of which bo information has yet been, obtained. To mitigate the horror with which the feeling heart must be pierced by fucb a recital, we are happy to add,-that there is the greatest reason to believe that all, or muehthe greater. part of the crews have been saved, A gent It man just from AmfterdamTaw Lord George Gordon there—and thus he deferibes his cendutt and situation: On his arrival in the city, Lord George waited on one of the Magistrates, and informed him, *' That, having been molt «* cruelly persecuted in -England, he had retreated to a country very dear to bin*, as -being- the land “ of Protettantifm and liberty.” 'Lord. George ■added, M That, as he- had fought an afylum* in “ Holland, he ihould live as citizen, and « not>by any means interfere in the commotious ; ** his employment would be of a religious nature Lord George then took his leave, and enquired for the house of Mr.^lo/es y a 'Jrw y whieli having found, he "delivered -a recommendatory letter, written by a Rabbi in -Hebrew. Mr. Mojes re ceived Lord'George-with extreme cordiality, al - totted him' appartmentrin his house, where he at this moment resides; and, when the gentleman who communicated these particular’s quitted Am *fterdam,..there wa* every reason to believe that Lord George was preparing for circumcision, and meant to embrace judaifm. His Lordlhip aflbei . atfes exclulively with the peole of that perfualion, lets his beard grow, and in every refpeft resembles a proselyte. This whimtical incident is a proof of events being produced by catfes apparently not hearing the 1001! diflant relation; for who could ‘hive supposed that rhe T'ritich Ambailador, a Roman Car bo/ici, ihould have occafibned a PreJ byitrean to turn Jenu ? Yet this will have been the'cafe, if Lord George ftiould commence Ifraliie. 1c I N G S~T ON, (Jamaica) July 14/ Last Tuefday evening a large Spaniih schooner arrived at Port Royal, and was leized nert morning by a certain customhouse officer, upup the most frivolous pretence*. ft feemi her com mander had flapped at Carthagena, 50 tons of Nicaragua wood, and about 15,000 dollars, and proceeded to Hispaniola, where he laid out one hglf the money in French claret and liqueur* for the use of a certain dignified perfoqage in the kingdom of Santa Fee, which, with the wood and the remainder of the money, be brought here.* Immediately after he came to an anchor, having learned that a cultomhoufe officer was at Port Roy* -al, he went on lhore and gave the officer anunre ferved account of his cargo, observing, at the jaipe time, that lie had not the most distant in tention to land any of the French goods, and of fered to give any security that none of them thould bfrfeut a there, but only desired to know if he might be permitted' to lay out his money and fell the Nicaragua wood, othcrwile he declared refolution-todeave the port the next morning. The officer gave him an evasive answer, and early i in*the morning carried "a party of soldiers on ' board, who took possession of the vessel in the "King’s name. Such unhandfome severities may be vety exattly adapted to the gratification of individual avarice, but what is to become of the •trade of the island, if they are fuffered 'by the ■mercantile people without Xnimadverfion ? 'On the afternoon ot Thvrfday laft,' a Violent altercation having arose between the Captain of a vessel from America, lying itrPort Royal har* bour, and his Mate, refpedmg some circum ftauces we are not acquainted with, the latter told the Captain that 'it was in his power* to do him an essential injury, and that for the abufe‘he had then received he certainly would do it. The Captain defied his menace, Ind laid he might do as he pleased : On which the mate came-td this town the fame evening, "and lodged an informa tion, that the aboVe* Vessel was,'during the last ■*war, taken from the Britifti, and condemned as a prize in a" Court of Admiralty in America» which of course made her an American Bottom* and a? such (he was on Thursday evening seized b r one-of the cuflorrihoufe officers. A melancholy accident happened at Little Goat Island on ;Wednefday last. A yotfng gentleman named Dean, and an eldefly person, attempting to come on lhore from a’ schooner in a small Ca nee, while the sea was ruftniiig very high, un fortunately Overfet; the latter gOt fafe to lhore, but almost dead with terror and affright, for, while encouraging his youthful companion to bear up against the surge, a large lliark attacked the ill fated lad, and almost inftantaueouliy fevered his body in two. N E W- Y O R K, Augufl*. o. By advices from <?adiz, dated 12th June, to a house in Philadelphia, we learn, that in conft quence of the fait works of that place, ind of St. Lucar, having been destroyed by tempestuous wea ther, the king of Spain had laid an embargo upon the exportation* Os fait front dvery part of his do minions. The prohibition was expetfed to cou • tintie at least eight months. Many Vessels from different parts of Europe, as well as America* had departed in ballast, in cOrifequence of this re ftri&ion. The fame advices mention, that there was a of this article in St. Übes, and that a'numberof'veffcls fenrto Spain for a supply for that place, had been Obliged to returti empty. A/fh&rt time Tince/ 'about eight miles from Pittfbufgh, up the Alleghany nver, at an Indian camp, the followrngvery extraordinary affair hap pened. A yonng warrior of the'Sdiieca nation, . who haß escaped taking the small pox, Which is raging among them, being much in&irfefl at feeing fomaiiyuf his brethren lei zed with that malady} exprefied himfelf to this effeft: That if th threat * Man above dared to give him the fitoall pox, he vyould tomawhawk him as he would a slump which Tie pointed at, and to thew how he would'ift, be gan cuttig the stump in a most furious maniiOfV 3 * In a few minutes Me was ft ruck entirely blilid, and his head swelled to so great & degree that his eye balls burst fron\ their sockets, and he'expired im a few hours.—The above inteiligence’ it' commu nicated by Mr. Jofepft Nicholas, interpreter sos the United - States, Who had it from Guia Suthov principal Chief of the nation, who was prefect when this happened. * By a brig arrived at Philadelphia from Port*au* Prince, we arc informed that there has been h very heavy gale in the Weft-Indies.
