Some Selected Reports from the Shrewsbury Chronicle



Friday, March 14, 1800.





LONDON, Friday, March 7.

Lord Bridport leaves town immediately for Portsmouth, in order to take the command of the Channel fleet, which will proceed immediately to its station off Brest; Government having received advice, that the enemy's force in Brest harbour consists of 54 sail of the line, 36 of which are equipped for sea.
There is no news of consequence from the interior of France. The Grand Consul has been installed in the Thuilleries, the residence of the murdered Louis, with Imperial pomp. Meanwhile a number of men, who at the period of the 18th Fructidor were suspected of Royalism, have been restored to grace and favour.
It appears that the Austrians are withdrawing themselves from Piedmont, and the authority of the King of Sardinia has been in consequence partly restored. Genoa has not yet been evacuated by the French. A letter from that city, dated the 4th ultimo, states that Admirals Keith and Nelson, had sailed from Leghorn, but that their destination was not known. Since the 2nd of January there had arrived in the port of Leghorn twenty-four merchant vessels, laden with different kinds of merchandize, together with two Genoese polacres, which had been taken on their passage to Genoa by the English frigate La Mutine. Several frigate had sailed from Toulon, for the purpose of escorting convoys, and facilitating the provisioning of Genoa and the army, before the season permitted the English squadron to block up that port.




Sunday Night's Mail.
From the LONDON GAZETTE
ADMIRALTY OFFICE, March 8, 1800.

THE Nymphe, Captain Fraser, has captured Le Modeste French Letter of Marque, bound from the Isle of France for Bourdeaux, laden with cotton, coffee, indigo, &c- (This ship is supposed to be worth �60,000) and the Maria private ship of war has taken the Spanish lugger privateer Nostra Semora Carmen, with 44 men.




LONDON, Saturday, March 8.

On Thursday advices were received at the Admiralty Office, from Sir Alan Gardner, off Brest. These state that the Combined French and Spanish Fleets, to the amount of forty-three sail of the line, besides frigates, were apparently ready for, and indicated a disposition to put to sea. Sir Alan had only twenty sail of the line with him at the time, but reinforcements from Torbay must soon have reached him; and Lord Bridport himself, who was expected to sail on Thursday, has probably by this time joined the squadron of observation.
The French fleet ventures, it is said, to quit port to counteract the expeditions from this country;- the objects of which are very properly kept so secret. Part of our force, it is suggested, is intended for the Mediterranean; to assist in the reduction of Malta, and afterwards to proceed to oppose the enemy in Egypt. Another part with the Russians is expected to be employed nearer home.
The division of the Guards, now under orders for one of the Secret Expeditions, is to march on Tuesday and Wednesday next for Portsmouth - The Dutch suspect that we mean again to attack Holland; they have therefore fortified the Island of Goree, and made other preparations to defeat our force, should that be its object.
A decree has just been passed at Paris, declaring the present Republican troops in the West unequal to the task of preserving tranquillity, and ordering 200 brigades of Gendarmerrie to be raised - This fact seem to shew, notwithstanding the success in hunting out Chouan Chiefs, described by Lefebvre, still the people are neither conciliated nor pacified.
The unfortunate General Frotte and his staff, are said to have been tried by military commission and shot.
An expedition against the Manillas (says a late letter from India) is certainly the object of Government, and will be carried into effect with all possible vigour; it was only the hostile appearance of the late Sultaun of Mysore that induced Government to relinquish this object last year, when every thing was in readiness, the East India ships taken up as transports to convey the troops and military stores to the places of their destination. A great many volunteers are expected to form part of the army.
The last fleet of ships proceeding to India will not be dispatched before the middle of May; they are severally ordered to be in the Downs on the 30th of April, and consigned to China direct. The Lord Walsingham and Earl Spencer, Captains Thomas Smales and Charles Raitt will be the last ships of this season to be dispatched to Bengal direct.
Letters from Holland state the continued persecution of those persons suspected to have favoured the late unsuccessful Invasion of that Country. A Captain in the Batavian Navy, named Cunnio, and an inferior Officer, named Vermeulen, who had influenced the surrender of his ship, and entered the service of the Prince of Orange, but was afterwards made prisoner, have been, with numerous others, executed. The military conscriptions were rigidly enforced at West-a-Capille, in Waleheren. Twenty-nine of the principal inhabitants, who had refused to serve as armed Citizens, were at midnight dragged from their beds to prison.
On Friday se'nnight, in the evening, James Kirk, alias Quirk, and John Ready, two of the three men suspected of robbing the Warrington and Wigan mail, together with a person of the name of John Burn, were apprehended at Conway, in Carnarvonshire, and on Sunday evening were taken to the country gaol of Chester, where they were lodged during the night; in the course of which John Ready, by means of a small two-penny knife, (which he had privately concealed) endeavoured to destroy himself by several wounds in his throat and arms, and now remains dangerously ill, though hopes are entertained of his recovery. Burn and Kirk, alias Quirk, were on Monday removed to Lancaster.
About two o'clock on Saturday morning last, the post-boy carrying the mail between Warrington and Wigan, was stopped by a single footpad, and the different bags taken from him; after tying the boy hand and foot the throwing him into a ditch, the depredator made off - Happily for the country at large, a person strongly suspected of the above robbery was detected offering to negotiate a bill in Newcastle-under-lyne, and was brought on Sunday night to Warrington on his way to Lancaster - This is the fourth time the mail passing between these places has been robbed in the course of a few months.
Saturday last was committed to Worcester gaol Francis Hague, charged by the Coroner's warrant with the wilful murder of Joshua Philpot




LONDON, Tuesday, March 11.

Advices have been received from India, of a later date than the official dispatches to the Company, containing important news of the surrender of the Portuguese Settlement of Goa, on the Coast of Malabar, to His Majesty's forces, under the command of General Clarke. The information comes from the General himself, in a letter dated from Goa to a relation in London; and there is no doubt of its authenticity. The transfer of this Settlement has been made with the consent of the Court of Portugal; and we understand, it is in future to be the seat of the Bombay Government. The proximity of Goa to the newly acquired territories of the East-India Company on the Coast of Malabar, renders the possession of this place highly valuable, both in respect to convenience and general security.
A French Paper of the 3d inst states, that the Chouans are again in considerable force south of the Loire; the Republicans having withdrawn from that quarter in consequence of the terms of pacification which had been agreed upon with some of the Chiefs, in the room of whom new leaders had been chosen.
American papers of the 8th ultimo have been received, but they contain no intelligence, excepting a report, that a correspondence between the Governor of Guadeloupe and Admiral Lord Seymour has been intercepted, the object of which was to surrender the island to the British arms. In consequence of the discovery, the Governor was arrested and sent to France. By private letters from New York we find a considerable degree of distress prevails in that and other cities, in consequence of the failures at Hamburgh, and the stagnation of commerce in Europe. Many American houses having speculated largely in West-India produce sent to an European market, have failed, and it is feared the public embarrassment will still extend.
New Bread - We are credibly informed that a society of gentlemen of fortune in London, have subscribed a considerable sum, for the purpose of sending persons into different parts of the kingdom to lodge informations against bakers who shall be detected sending out bread for sale, before it shall have been baked 24 hours, agreeably to the late act.
Saturday se'nnight Mr. S------, a baker in the neighbourhood of St.Martin's-lane, London, was summoned before R. Ford and T. Robinson, Esqrs for selling 30 quartern loaves of bread to a chandlers shop, not being 24 hours old, contrary to the late act of parliament; and which offence being proved to the satisfaction of the Magistrates, the defendant was convicted in the full penalty of �5 on each loaf, amounting to one hundred and fifty pounds.

POSTSCRIPT.
LONDON, Wednesday, March 12.

THE last French papers mention, that the opening of the Campaign is now every day looked for. The Imperial forces have put themselves in motion in Italy; and notwithstanding the severity of the weather, we find their army in Suabia to be assembling on the 24th of February, in the neighbourhood of the Black Forest.
Advice has been received at the Admiralty of the capture of the Vengence Privateer, of Bourdeaux, by the Nereide; she has been committing her depredations for two years.
The Nereide has also recaptured an American ship with a cargo worth �30,000.
A subscription has been entered into at Bristol, headed by the Mayor, which amounted on Friday to �15,500 (towards which every Banking-house in the City contributed �1000) to be appropriated, under the direction of a Committee, to the purchase of grain and flour, for the better and more effectual supply of the inhabitants of Bristol. The gentlemen who have promoted this scheme have already secured the positive preferences of the cargoes of three ships now at Hamburgh, actually laden with wheat, and which they may be soon expected to arrive.
Advice to Farmers - In consequence of the badness of the last barley harvest, a more than ordinary circumspection in the choice of seed, for the ensuing Spring-sowing, is become absolutely necessary, as more especially appears by experiments made by some Members of the Board of Agriculture, on which it has been found, that not more than one fifth of several different samples, has vegetated; it is therefore, by that Board, recommended to all Barley-growers, to make a previous trial of their seed, by sowing a certain number of grains, in a pot of good mould, set in a warm place, and well watered, which would now discover to them, the exact proportion of damaged seed, that has lost its power of vegetation, and thereby enable them to avoid a deception, which might otherwise prove fatal to their crops.




Shrewsbury, FRIDAY, MARCH 14.

At a Meeting of the Committee on Tuesday last, at Watling Street, for the purpose of alleviating the distresses of the Poor : Sir Corbet Corbet, Bart. was reported a Subscriber of �200 and Mr R. Emery a Subscriber of �100.

Circular Letters have been sent from the Duke of Portland, to the Commanding Officers of the several Corps of Yeomanry Cavalry in this county, to hold themselves in readiness in case of riots in Shropshire, Montgomeryshire, &c.
The Stale Loaf Act has had a wonderful effect already in every part of the kingdom. Full one sixth less bread was consumed last week upon the average. Corn has in consequence fallen both in the London and Country Markets. A large supply of foreign corn, rice, &c is expected in a fortnight or three weeks in the Ports of London, Bristol, and Liverpool.
John Owen, Esq; of Penrhos, has given 20 Guineas, to purchase Grain for the poor of Llandrinio; being his second contribution since Christmas last to the poor of that parish.

Lately was married, at Madeley, Mr Heslop, of Ketley, to Miss Elizabeth Davis, of Lawley, near Wellington.
Last week was married, at St.Phillip's Church Birmingham, Mr. S. Hilditch, of Columbia, in America, (late of Wigmore in this county,) to Miss H. Corn, of Birmingham.
On Tuesday the 4th instant was married, at Hodner, Mr Richard Watkin, aged 18, to Miss Sarah Maddocks, aged 17.
The marriage of Mr. Whitefoot, of Ludlow, to Miss Marston, inserted in the different papers, is not true.
Lately died, after a long lingering illness, Mrs Edwards, wife of Mr John Edwards, Church-Stretton : universally respected by all her acquaintances.
On Friday last died Mrs Flavel, wife of Mr Flavel, of Cleobury, after a lingering illness, which she bore with great patience and christian fortitude.

A few days ago died, at Oswestry, Mr Jonathan Barff, attorney at law.
Last week died, at Oswestry, in the 22d year of his age, Mr John Grey Phillips, much respected by his friends and acquaintance. And on Tuesday last, Mr Green, schoolmaster, of that place.

On Saturday last a child about four years old, son of Mr. Webb, of the Pheasant Inn, Wellington, was unfortunately drowned, by the breaking of the ice on which he and others were sliding.- His little companions immediately gave the alarm, but he was gone so far under the ice, that it was some time before he was got out, and too late to recover him, notwithstanding every endeavour which was tried for that purpose.
At Reading Assizes, John Hutt, (a lad about sixteen) was convicted of wilfully Murdering Mrs. Pearman, wife of Mr. Pearman, baker, of Bray, by repeated blows with a bludgeon, which he had picked out of a faggot pile. His trial lasted eight hours; and the Jury after being shut up two hours, found him Guilty. He accordingly received sentence of Death, and was executed on Thursday the 6th instant.
At Worcester Assizes, John and Richard Lane (brothers) were convicted of murdering Mr Thomas Good, of Redmarley. They were sentenced to be executed on Thursday, and their bodies to be dissected and anatomised. Mr.G was uncle to the two unfortunate convicts, as mentioned in former papers.
