Extratt of a Utter from Litchfield, An? , " This gay city presents very little orthnn tice, except a wonderful pile of building a cathedral. This cathedral is undergoing av7 ry neceflary tho expensive repair, directed L that great artist, Wyatt. Had he never done an v work before to render his name conspicuous as an architect, the taste and genius displayed in the alteration and modernization of the choir is f u (?i cient to transmit his name to posterity with ado' ation. A fubfeription is set on foot here for erect ing a monument near the south door, to that Co 101 l lis of literature, the late Dr. Johnson who was a native of this place. A similar compliment has been mentioned to the memory of'our departed Rofcius, but it seems to be the natural expecfta ton of the inhabitants, that a certain lady in the neighbourhood of Hampton, inMiddlefex, should accoinplifh this long looked for mark ofrefpect to Shakefpear's best commentator." L xtr a(I oj a letter from Tangier s, June 1, " The Kmperor Morocco's troops have gained a great victory over the Arabs, in the province of Teifna, and 600 of their heads have been fern to Algiers This victory was proclaimed thereby repeated discharges of cannon." To the account of the battle between the Ruf fians and Swedes at Undermalm, we have to add these farther particulars. At the departure of the Courier which carried the news of the KinoV vic tory,the Kingwas on his route to Wilinanftrandt, the place where the Rullians keep their principal magazines, and which commands an entranceinto their country. In the mean time, General Sie grotli advanced with another corps towards Fre dericklham to block up that place by land, while General Kaulbars, with a tliird detachment went up the river Kymene ; and Count Ekrenfward was ordered to land from his fleet, a body of 5000 men, between Frederickfham and Hogforb, to attack the Ruffian army, near the firft men tioned place. From these different arrangements, this campaign promises to be as bloody and deci sive as the last was peaceable. AUGUST 8. The following is reported to be the circum stance to which the Duke of Dorset alludes, in the second paragraph of his letter to the Count de Montmorin :—The nobility of Brittany have ne ver sent deputies to the National Aflembly, but perceiving the troubles which were brewing, and torefeeing the consequences which have ref'ulted, they resolved to seize an opportunity of shaking offtheir allegiance to France, and rendering that Province more independent than it had hitherto been. For that pnrpofe, rumour fays, they made a proposal to the English Ambaflador, of putting themselves under the protection of Great-Britain, as a tributary Hate, to be governed by the old feudal system ; and offered to place the port of Brest in the hands of the English, as a recompence for their services, and a surety of allegiance. In order to accomplish their design, the Duke of Dor set was to procure from his Court a fleet in readi ness to protecfl the Province, and an armytoaffift them in their endeavours to carry the attempt in to execution. Extra(} from the JOURNAL of the NATIONAL ASSEMBLY of FRANCE. July 29, A report was made in the Aflembly, that the Parliament ofßefancon had sent a deputation to Vezoul, toa<ft with the Judge Royal in enquiring into the late horrid maifacre, but that the people had ri fen upon them and obliged them to return, that, in consequence, the Parliament had iflue» an arret, renouncing their jurifditftion, and hM submitted the affair entirely to the consideration of the National Assembly.
