Extract of a letter from Plymouth, Aug. 19.
"Several Frenchmen have been taken up in the country as spies, and brought into town for security and examination. It is said some of them have been landed by the cutter to gain intelligence. People in town are removing their property, wives and children, into the country; for though most people in the King's ports are desirous of war, as it brings in the loaves and fishes, they do not chuse to have the enemy so near at hand.Extract of a letter from a Soldier in the Wiltshire militia, dated Camp at Plymouth, August 19.
"They are in strange confusion at Plymouth, not a horse to be got to bring provisions to camp, lest they should be wanted by the artillery; all the Dockmen are sworn to take up arms in case of an invasion. On Tuesday we were ordered to hold ourselves in readiness to march at an hour's warning, in case the enemy should land, and never were orders received with greater alacrity. On Wednesday morning the enemy were out of sight, but about three in the afternoon they appeared again in greater numbers than before, but a strong wind blowing from the east, they were again driven off. I hope neither you nor any one else will be under any concern, for we have plenty of victuals and drink, and as good stomachs for fighting as for eating."Extract of a letter from Exeter, Aug. 20.
"At a meeting of Gentlemen at our Guildhall this day, 1000 stand of arms were delivered out to the inhabitants, to do duty over the French prisoners. It being market-day, the country people look very serious, on seeing six waggons with cannon, and about 600 militia march out as if going to battle immediately.- In the county of Cornwall, the Tinners are assembled to the amount of 40,000 to defend the coast, while their militia join the troops at Plymouth."Extract of a letter from Bristol, Aug. 21.
"Yesterday an express came to Lieut. Col. Pochin, commanding the Leicestershire militia quartered here, with orders for them to proceed to Plymouth, leaving only two companies behind to guard the prisoners till they are relieved by the Staffordshire militia. In consequence of which, one division of them will set out on their march this morning, and the other will follow them to-morrow."
"Let them come if they will, 50,000 or more;
"We are able and willing to pay them a score, &c."

COUNTRY NEWS.
READING, Aug 21.
LONDON, THURSDAY, Aug 20.
An express arrived at nine this morning at Lord Weymouth's office from General Elliot, Governor of Gibraltar, with an account of that place being infested by the Spaniards both by sea and land; but we have the pleasure to acquaint our readers, from the best authority, that from the state of the garrison, and the store of provisions, there is not the least apprehension that the siege will be successful.Extract of a letter from Portsmouth, August 22.
"The consternation occasioned by the first appearance of the enemy off this port was certainly great, the inhabitants flying with what valuable effects they could get together, so that the town was presently only left to those who meant gallantly to defend it; and to the credit of the country, the place of the female and infirm fugitives, was more than doubly supplied by the able volunteers that flocked in from all parts. Twenty guineas were reportedly given for a chaise and pair, to carry different families but twenty miles from hence.Extract of a letter from Plymouth, August 22.
"Our apprehensions gradually subside, and we begin to fancy that we shall see no more of the combined fleet; but our preparations for receiving them do not slacken; 3000 stand of arms are delivered out to the inhabitants, and associations among the young gentlemen are made to learn the exercise. Orders are given, that in case of bombardment, the pavement shall be taken up and removed, that the bombs may sink into the ground without bursting. The French prisoners are so numerous and sturdy, that it is necessary to remove them. When the enemy appeared in the offing, several of them made their escape, seized on boats, and strove to get on board; but the surf was so great, through the violence of the wind, that they could not drive through it, and they were taken. Whoever knows the beautiful woods that cover Mount Edgecumbe, must regret, as well as his Lordship, the havock that necessity hath made on them. The generals foresaw that dangers might arise from these groves, as they might conceal an enemy, and favour an attack on the dock-yard, and begged leave to cut them down. His Lordship requested that they might not be destroyed without positive necessity, but said that he would suffer any thing, rather than the defence of the dock-yard should be incompleat."Extract of a letter from Plymouth, August 23.
"Yesterday 700 miners, volunteers from Cornwall, arrived in the camp, on Mount Edgecumbe. These fine fellows turned out at a minutes warning, and 5000 more might have been procured in a single day. After having received a very excellent dinner from Lord Edgecumbe, they set to work in throwing up entrenchments in the front of the line of encampment along the shore."
A gentleman (on whose veracity we can depend) has just informed us, that the States-General have come to a resolution to assist Great Britain with a squadron of 20 ships of war, &c. agreeable to treaty.
Advice is this day received, that two French men of war came in shore at Dartmouth, under English colours, and made a signal for two boats to come off with provisions, which was complied with : The French paid them for the provisions, and sent the boats on shore again; from this it is conjectured the whole fleet are yet off that place.
Yesterday was executed at Tyburn, pursuant to their sentence, Michael Brennan and Martin Gullavan alias Galloway, (two bricklayer's labourers) for highway robbery; James Barret, for a rape; and Tho. Ricketts, for burglary. After the malefactors had been tied up for upwards of twenty minutes, a report was spread that a reprieve was arrived for Gullavan, (who was so ill that he lay in the bottom of the cart, almost dead, till he came to the place of execution) in consequence of which they were all untied, and sat in the cart while a messenger was sent to Lord Weymouth, when being informed they were all to be executed, he returned at near one o'clock, immediately after which they were again tied up, and turned off.
By the last accounts from New-York, received by the transports arrived at Corke, General Washington had crossed the North River, and his head quarters were at Col. Beverley Robinson's house, about 30 miles distant from our army; and that a detachment of Lord Cathcart's legion had surprized a party of Sheldon's dragoons, killed 15, and taken 19 men prisoners, without any loss on our side, except two wounded, and those but slightly.
Extract of a letter from Plymouth, Aug. 24.
"Every body is sorry for the devastation produced in the beautiful woods of Mount Edgecumbe. It is an entire falshood that his Lordship objected to their being cut down, for on a proper representation of the circumstances by Lord Shuldham, and others here, that it was very possible that these groves might be made use of as a place of concealment for the enemy, in an attack upon the dock-yard, all that his Lordship said on the occasion was this, "If it be absolutely necessary for the preservation of the dock-yard, that Mount-Edgecumbe be destroyed, you have my ready consent, even to the last shrub. Nothing with me can have any weight against a circumstance of that moment. No private interest can have the smallest influence, when set in balance with an object of the magnitude you mention; but I would beg leave to remark, Gentlemen, that, without your fears are very well founded, I an entirely averse to the destruction of these groves. If you are convinced, on serious and weighted deliberation, that danger may arise from them; if you are not quite so certain, then, for Heaven's sake, let them stand."CAMP INTELLIGENCE.
Warley-Common, Aug. 20. Gen. Parker having received orders from the Secretary of War for a body of troops to be detached from the army encamped here, for the better protection of the exterior parts of this country, to be ready to act in conjunction with the naval armament now stationed on the coast, the following troops marched early on Tuesday morning. viz. the grenadiers and light infantry companies of the militia under the Duke of Dorset; the Duke of Devonshire, with the battalion companies of the Berkshire, West Suffolk, and Herts, with the 18th and 59th regiments, under Col. Stewart M'Kenzie; the whole comprising near 3500 men, part of which are to join the camp at Hastings, in Sussex, and will take their route accordingly.BANKRUPTS from SATURDAY's GAZETTE.- George Good, of Fleet-street, upholder.- Ann Menies and William Carnaby, of Pall-Mall, vintners.- Thomas Evans, of York-street, Covent-garden, silversmith.- William Wolsencroft, of Aldermanbury, London, haberdasher.- Samuel Greatheed, of Laurence pountney-lane, London, merchant.- Edw.

HOME NEWS.
PORTSMOUTH, August 27. Yesterday arrived the True Briton and Flying Fish cutters, from the coast of France, with an account that the transports, with troops, were sailed from St.Malo's and Havre, bound westward, supposed to join the combined fleet.
SALISBURY, AUGUST 30.

It is said the combined fleet consists of only three three-deck ships, and more than half the fleet are of 70 guns or under; so that it is expected Sir Charles Hardy, whenever he meets with them, will be equal in metal, and able to convince both the French and Spaniards, that English courage is not degenerated.List of commissioned Ships now at home.

On Wednesday, Thursday, and Friday last, was celebrated our annual Festival of Music, before as brilliant and numerous an audience as ever honoured us on the like occasion. The performers distinguished themselves with great applause, particularly Messrs. Cramer and Cervetto; and the principal vocal part was supported by Miss Harrup, whose superior abilities are too well known to need any particular encomium, when every one who had the happiness of feeling the power of melody, must at once acknowledge her to be possessed of the gift of charming the ear, and enrapturing the heart.
Mr. WALKER begs leave to inform the Lovers of Music, that his much admired improvement to the Harpsichord, called the CELESTINA STOP, (for which he has obtained the King's Royal Letters Patent) is now brought to its greatest perfection, and may be added to any harpsichord without injuring the other stops.
This celebrated improvement gives the harpsichord all the excellencies of the organ, piano forte, viol d'amour, and musical glasses, but with a clearness of tone and musical expression superior to any of them. It sustains the voice with such sweetness and delicacy, and even an indifferent performer is heard with pleasure and surprize.
The Celestina Stop has received the highest approbation of some of the first connoisseurs in music, who recommend it as a necessary addition to complete the harpsichord.
Wanted immediately, one or two PRESSMEN in the Printing Business, that are good hands. Apply to the Printer of this Paper.

By the sweetly tinkling rill.
