HICKY's BENGAL GAZETTE; OR, Calcutta General Advertiser. A Weekly Political and Commercial Paper, Open to all Parties, but influenced by None, From Saturday May, 27th, to Saturday June, 3d. 1780. [No. XIX] BENGAL. *Extract of a Letter from the MALABAR COAST,* WE are informed that Col. Goddard had attacked the Maharatta Camp the middle of April last and that they charged only with fixt Bayonets, without powder and forced themselves into the middle of the Maharatta Camp before Day light, in hopes to have taken their General prisoner. But he proved to be in the rear and escaped, the conflict soon became general and 3 Troops of Free Booters Horse (which Colonel Goddard had entertained in the English service) behaved remarkable well; the Maharatta Horse charged them too near the English Line for the Artillery to be of much service for some time: Upwards of 500 Maharattas are said to be killed in the flight with the loss only of about 20 Killed and wounded on the side of the English But no officer fell in the action. *By Letters from England we Learn.* Count D'Estange has taken Grenada they surrendred at discretion having only 400 soldiers on the Island and the french ten thousand Troops, 28 sail of the Line and a number of frigates, Admirals Byron and Barington hearing of Count D'Estange's intention haul'd over for the Granada's and came in sight the Day after it had surrendred, soon after the Fleets engaged in sight of the Island and by the french accounts parted with mutual consent after a resolute and desperate Engagement in which the french lost several thousand Men and the English 3 or 4 hundred amongst the English the brave Admiral Barrington was dangerously wounded and obliged to return to England in a frigate. Admiral Rodney had sailed with ten sail of the Line to reinforce the West-India Squadron which consisted only of 22 sail who engaged the French. Captain G. Farmer (who commanded the Seahorse frigate in India 5 years ago) had a bloody engagement with a French Ship of superior force in which both Ships were totally dismasted unfortunately Captain Farmer's Ship blew up and only 48 Men saved. The French Man of War was towed into Brest. The rich Manilla Ship bound for Cadiz was taken by a Privateer of 14 Guns belonging to Bristol and a Letter of Marque of 14 Guns belonging to Liverpool. The grand Combin'd Fleet consisting of 66 Ships of the Line Cruized in the Sight of Plymouth 3 Days and were forced to leave their station by strong Easterly Winds. *Extract of a Letter from Midnapore dated May 23d, 1780.* "YESTERDAY was brought in to Mr. Peiarces a prodigious large Royal Tiger which had been shot by the natives a very little way from the House. They informed Mr. Chollet that there was a Tiger caught by the foot in the Trap placed near to Richmond. Accordingly Lieuts. Guthrie and Bird went there, but found it to be a prodigious large Laker-bury which they immediately killed. The Natives said he was an old Offender, and in the course of one Month had destroyed Upwards of Twenty Kyds. Instead of going into the door of the Compound where the Trap was placed; He used to go over the Pales, and return the same way with the Kyds. As I understand the Ladies at Calcutta are solicitous to have Bears grease to make their hair grow I am getting a great quantity prepared and will be able to Supply all my female acquaintances in a very short time. I am also procuring the skins of Dormouses and other Animals, which will make excellent Muffs for the Ladies, to wear during the present Cold season. I would Also recommend the Hair of the mane of the Laker-bury as proper to make Bob Wigs, for the Gentlemen of my Acquaintance who have lost their hair from a long Residence in these Hot Climes. Bahadur --- of the 3d Legion having so strongly recommended the Salubrious Air &c. Of Beer-Cool. I think the Ladies and Gentlemen had better take this Rout to provide themselves with the above Articles. The poor Oppressed Natives here are already providing themselves with Bear skin Breeches, instead of Buck skin, and I asure you cut no indifferent appearance, they are however prejudiced against the Wigs. *Mr. EDITOR,* AFTER having passed forty years with great success in the Study of the finer Arts, and of the Sciences, and shone with a lusture (which my modesty forbids me to mention) at the several Courts in Europe, chance, or providence having conducted me to this place: I intend, if I meet with that regard which the honesty of my undertaking, I will presume to say, deserves, to dedicate my time and labour to the benefit of mankind which has ever been the primum mobile of all my actions. There are two grand roads leading from the grand Capital of self Love, from whence travellers set out early with intention to reach the temple of happiness which is now generally supposed to be in another kingdom. Innumerable are the multitudes which croud the left hand road. Because at the first outset it seems to run in a right line and to be well shaded and in excellent repair. Alass! poor deluded people. Appearances are deceitful for this same road, after windings and evolutions to which they are insensible whilst their attention is taken up with the conversation, merriment and not unfrequently the disasters which occurs in the Journey, at length brings them by a postern gate to the very Capital from whence they set out. Such are the effects of their fatigue, and disappointment, that they never can be prevailed upon to attempt the other road, which they presume to say (people will talk even on subjects they are not acquainted with (they are very sure) and how can they be sure) "that the right hand road is not a bit better than the other, that if there is any such temple it must be in the Clouds and there is no getting there without perfection for a guide and him they cannot find. Can it be expected that a Man would sit down seriously to argue with such people. I tell you, Mr. Editor, I have been at the temple and will undertake to be their guide; perfection.—why I am perfection, but they wont believe me—Have the enlightened Inhabitants of Calcutta a mind to be still more enlightened, let them come to me: but on recollection, as my house is at present very small and a little encumbered with the Apparatus of Transmutation, which work will soon be brought to the end, I think it would be better if I should go to them, or give them a meeting at the Play-House or Court House. To stay till I have finished the Palace for their reception the plan of which now lies before me, would be keeping them too long from happiness. When they are all assembled, the method I propose to

follow is this as many of them must have engaged in Politics, Merchandise &c. &c. from whence it would be impossible to wean them so soon as I could wish of course they would not desire to set out immediately, I will impart my Qualities to them, so every man of them will become a model of perfection and consequently will be able to make his own way good. I am imformed they are the most pliant, docile set of people under-the-Sun! so much the better. I will be able to perfect them the sooner, and as about the time they will be properly qualified to guide them. I shall have compleated the Work. Politics, Merchandise, Business of what ever Denomination cannot then be pleaded as insurmountable objections, what is their end? Money. I will supply, them all. I shall meet them at the Play House on the sixth Day of June. In the mean time is there any of them that wish to have any questions in either Arts or sciences answered to their satisfaction let them propose it thro' your Vehicle of Intelligence. I must caution you Mr. Editor not to omit publishing this as you value the good of the Public Some people. I know are so foolish to think I am mad, but take my word for it I am not I am, Mr. Editor, Your most obd. humble Servant, TRISMIGISTUS. CALCUTTA A Party of Gentlemen set of a few Days ago for Beercool, they have on foot a scheme for supplying Midnapore with Salt Water Fish by means of a new constructed land Carriage, the invention is certainly laudable and as they expect to improve upon it, flatter themselves with the hopes of being able to present their friends in Calcutta, with fine herrings, mullet and Cod. A new Correspondent. P. S. I understand by a late Survey which has been taken of the Town that an innumerable quantity of male tanks or rather Puddles have been discovered in all the quarters inhabited by Natives. As nothing can more contribute to the unhealthiness of the Town than such a Nuisance, it is hoped that every thing of the kind will be remedied in the new plan on which it is said the black Town is to be rebuilt. Continued from our Last. THE metamorphosis pleased me, the Hazard of Reputation, present maintenance and expectancy, all incurred to gratify Desire; yet it was all my own Act and Deed, and I would not have it understood that I condemn the Females, on the contrary, I and every resonable Man must admit the Masculine to be the Antidote and Destroyer of the Feminine; for my part I have Seduced many, and ( couched under the Disguise of honorable, and inviolate intentions ) have fraudulently obtaind the Essence of that Virtue, which cloathed in its native Purity and Innocence held, not the least Correspondence with Levity or lacivious Inclanations; and to the great shame of all mankind be it spoken, that the different Degrees are replete with different and distinct Villanies; the Men of Fashion, Figure and Fortune, termed the Beau Monde, boast of their Conquest and Victories obtained over the Fair, and as a Deed of Gallantry, glory in the ruin of their common Sister, The loss of their Character ( if in a state of servitude or Dependence ) disqualify them to continue their usual Method, or manner of living; and what more eligiable expedient could be used than to expose to sale, and Traffick that once inestimable jewel that had engaged Man to violate, captivate, and sully all its Beauties? To be Continued. ARRIVED. On the 30th. of May the Hon'ble Companys Schooner, Industry Lieut. Murry who went with the St. Helina Stores, to Archin for the Ceres, but the Ceres had sail'd in Company with his Majestys Sloop Nymph, eight days before he Arrived at Archin, he found two Vessels in the Road from Pegue, one of them Commanded by Captain Gibson; the Alexander—Richeson and Jinney Smart had left that place.
