Cudden (who still as mouse had bcen >

Uttered a dismal cry.

The cock crew loud—the Fairies fled—
Down dropt dull Cudden on his head—
Thick darkness fill'S the dome :
There wet and cold he trembling lay,
Until he saw the break of day,
Then sorry fought his home.

LONDON, April 6.
LETTERS from Conltantinople mention that
lufuf Paclist, who was Grand Vizir the cam
paign of'i 788,andfince,Serafkier oflfmael,is again
appointed Grand Vizir to succeed the old Captain
Pacha, who has resigned. ,
About thirty years ago, Charles Marsh and
honest To 111 Payne bought a parcel of books in
conjunction ; among which were a shabby lei or
Tillotfou's works. The executors, in a prayer
book which they preferred, found these memo
randums :—Til. 201. page B—Til. 601. page
12.—Til.—tool, page 200. — Ijl. 7°l- P a £ e
90." On the death of the good Bishop Ho'udley,
it was mentioned in the papers, that the Bilhop
was the editor of Tillotfon's works, 3 v ols. folio ;
it diredtly struck the executors that the treasure
was in the Tillotfon they had fold, lheyimme
diately applied to the booksellers, and reco\ered
the Tillotfon, and with it the notes. What is
extraordinary, the Tillotfon had travelled to
Oxford, and to a gentleman at the Charter Houle,
and was returned asa bad copy. Old Jerry Dy
fon, of the House ofConimons, old Ms. Plum tree,
who formerly lived in Jermyn street, and Bifliop
Burnet, used to lay up their Banknotes in books.
Lord Stanhope's project was never to make
way againlt wind and tide. Such a project,
every man who has been at sea, or conversed
with sailors, knows to be utterly impracticable.
But the application of a force which, in a dead
calm, shall be able to move a veflel, is undoubt
edly a discovery of a great importance. In natural
calms,fliips are inevitably retarded for many days;
when,if they were able to make way through a tri
fling (pace of sea, they would be certain of find
ing a breeze. And, in naval engagements, when
an artificial calm almost always takes place, and
vefl'els besides are often disabled in their rigging,
what a vast advantage tochange lituation, inltead
of lying immoveable upon the water, raked and
torn by every ship of the enemy that partes.

Extrafi of a letter from Perpignan, Feb. 19.
" A company of 120 men of the National
Guard formed, 011 Shrove-Tuefday, a kind of
proceilion that amused very much the inhabitants
of this town. At the head of it was seen waving
in the air a noble banner, on which was written
in large golden letters—Vive la Liberie ; every
one of the soldiers had wreaths of laurel and
flowers in his hands, and was singing, as they
inarched, a military song suitable to the cirenin
ftance. An uncovered waggon next followed
with emblems, garlands, and devices, of which
the 1110 ft confpicioos were—" Long live liberty,
the new Constitution, the Law, the King, the
National Aflembly, and the Patriotic Citizens
armed for the defence of the New Constitution,"
&c.—Wine was procured from tliecartothe peo
ple ; on the hogfliead was written—lt only floit's
for real Patriots. A hundred National Volun
teers came next and preceded a second waggon,
on which were seen aitaved cask with the inferip
tion—The Chefl oj privileges ; and a broken trunk,
with the words—The Chofl of Feudal rights, addres
sed to the Princes of Germany. After this second
waggon, appeared a man, l'uperbly drefled, lean
ing on two chained Haves—he was intended to
represent Aristocracy, and wore as an emblem a
mask with two faces—a numerous Court formed
his retinue; and when all the cavalcade arrived
at the moll frequented part of the town, they
were ordered t'» halt ; it was then proposed to
drinkto the health of our good King, Lewis XVI.
the Father of the people, and the restorer of
French liberty.
" Vivele Ro't was the general toast, followed
by shouts of joy, aud the flourifh of thirty mu
sicians ; during this effulion of genuine-mirth,
the man who reprelented Aristocracy was gnash
ing his teeth, and endeavouring to disturb th«
augult ceremony. The second toast was—Vfoe
L' s/ffemblse Nationale, the found of which was so
hearty and loud, that it quite overpowered the
inad efforts of the enraged Aristocratic figure, who
foaming at the mouth, never ceased to cry out—
No, no, 110! At the fame instant arrived a cabinet
courier, properly accoutred, who prefentcd a
packet to the commander—it was the speech of
his Majesty to the National Assembly on the 4th
instant, and a letter supposed to be written by the
President to the good people of Rouftillon ; the
second in command read it, in a clear audible
voicc, and at every word of comfort for the peo
ple, thefigure changed colour, and at the words
—Let us all profefs, I give you the example of it,on
ly one opinion, only one intercjl, and only one will
an attachment to the Confutation, &c.—he fell back
wards; some approached to raise him up and as
sist him, but thephyficians, after having examined
him andfelc his pulle, declared he was dead; to
keep up the mockery ofwoe,feveral perfonspre
fented tliemfelves in deep mourning, with weep
ers, &c. and followed the body, which was put on
a hearse, to the grave ; the moment that it dis
appeared, the commander in second proclaimed
that all our enemies were at an end, and ordered
a toast to be drank to peace and concord. The
music played an air suitable to so joyous a fubjetft.
Upvard of 10,000 persons were present.
