A Weekly Political and Commercial Paper, Open to all Parties, but influenced by None.
From Saturday September 2d to Saturday September 9th 1780. [ No. XXXIII ]
By the last Letters from Bombay.
WE are informed that General Goddard Continued his March towards baseen without interuption, that he had during his said march seen several detatchments of the Enemys troops, who fled with the greatest precipitation the moment they saw his Army advancing, that numbers of the Inhabitants round the Country through which he passed had offered (as far as lay in their power) to assist him and his Army, by supplying them with every necessary provision in their Power, which offer General Goddard received in the most grateful manner, and generously paid them the full value for every thing they supply'd his People with, for which they received with acknowledgements, calling out in loud shouts to the God to crown him with success against his Enemies. And we are informed that he is now with the whole body of his Army encamped within half a mile of Baseen.
By Letters from Madras.
WE learn that Lord MacLeod has had a brush with the Son of Hyder, who, made but a very trifling resistance, having only discharged a few rounds of small Arms, and then fled with his Army, leaving behind him five Elephants, nine Cammels, and upwards of fifty of his Horses with all its Baggage &c. &c.
Lord MacLeod we hear still continues his March, towards the Capital of Hyder, with a determined resolution to take that place and destroy the country all round it. And sincerely wishes to meet Hyder in the Field.
Hyder we hear still keeps Mr. Gowen Harrup a close Prisoner and it is supposed he means, not to part with him, without a considerable Ransom. Poor Mrs. Harrup they say is inconsoleable for the Loss of her Husband.
We hear that the inhabitants from the remote parts of the Country, who lately fled to Madras for protection have mostly all returned to their respective places of abode, and that Rice still continues at the same price, as when the last accounts were received from thence, that every thing now seems to promise much tranquility, and they are in great hopes that Hyder will not trouble them shortly.
The only hopes Hyder has now, are entirely centered in the Arrival of the French fleet under the Command of Mons. Tranjolie which he daily expects on the Coast from the Mauritias.
We are informed that Sir Edward Hughes, has sailed from Madras, in quest of the French fleet, and is now Cruizing off the Island of Ceylon in which tract we have reason to hope he will fall in with Mons. Tranjolie's, fleet; should this prove to be the case, there is not the least doubt but Sir Edward will give him a warm reception, and bring the best part of his fleet in captive Triumph to Madras.
We hear that our grand Army at Madras have taken the Field under the Command and direction of General Sir Hector Monro, and are now on their Way, towards the Capital of Hyder. This Army is formed into three bodies distinct, but not far distant, by which they form a Cresant, and who are to move on regularly; keeping still in good order, and near enough to communicate with each other; providing there should be a necessity to alter their present Plan. The right Wing we hear is commanded by Lord MacLeod, the left by and the center by General Sir Hector Munro, the intention of forming the above plan of operation, is to cut off Hyders communication with the neighbouring Maharratta powers his Ally's.
By Letters lately received from Batavia.
WE learn that there is great disputes among the Council in that place owing to some Order lately received from Europe.
The same Letters informs us that they are very sickly at Batavia, and that they have buried upwards of ninty people there in the Course of six Weeks, owing to a disorder, that the people has been lately afflicted with, the symptoms are as follows, Sickness at stomach, Giddyness, and cold clammey sweats. By which they have been carried off in a very few Days, and their Bodies have been searcely cold, before they were cover'd over with large Black spots.
A N E C D O T E S.
THE following strange Story is fact: Two Men were some Years since apprehended for a Highway Robbery of an atrocious Nature, and committed to Kingston Goal. They knew that Facts were so strong against them that they had no Chance of Escape; they therefore agreed to play a Rubber at cards which should exculpate the other. To prevent all collusion they stripped to the Skin and the losing Man saved the Life of his Partner by declaring that he only asked him to take a Ride and that he knew nothing of his own Intentions to rob. The Man thus saved returned home to his Wife, who then kept a Stall in Fleet Market; but the remarkable part of the story is, that himself died of a broken heart within a Month, through reflectin on the Fidelity and the Fate of his Partner. Did Cæsar and Alexander possess Souls equal to those of these Highwaymen.
A Man with a Bag on his Shoulder stopped on Tower-Hill, and resting it on a Post, cried, "D these Halfpence, I wish I had been at the Devil before I had been at the Tower for them." On this several People gathered round him, one of whom took a Crown, and another ten Shillings Worth, till the Man had none left, but on examination they proved to be counterfeits,
Continued from our Last.
THE Ministry had not at this time the concurrence of any one man in the Kingdom, from conscious integrity, Were you, Gentlemen," says he, "to ask every Member, as he passed through this hall, to his place, what he thought of the measures, and what of the honesty and wisdom of Ministers? He would tell you that he detested and despised them; and yet it is more than two to one that the very same Member should be conducted out of the House, by the nod of authority, to vote on whatever question the Member might incline." That corruption, which they had been enabled, through the profligacy of Parliament, to render so universal, contained within itself the baleful source of its own continuance; it daily and hourly enlarged the influence of the Crown, and it was so much the more dangerous, because, though beneath the forms of the constitution, with more security. It was therefore, high time that the people should unite in the great national plan of common salvation. Nothing but the efforts of the people, the legal and constitutional associations of the people at large,

could rescue this devoted Country, at this moment, from the power of influence. That this was constitutional was undoubted, for what was the nature of the government of this country, Kings, Lords, and People---for the House of Commons is no more than the delegate, the representative of the people, who have entrusted for a time their power, their rights, their interests in their hands. If that delegated body fails in the execution of their trust, if they abandon the interests of their constituents, they are no more the representative of the people---they are the instruments of the Crown. The question was, whether they had failed in the execution of their duty --- whether they had reached the point of distinction between being the representative of the people, and the instrument of the Crown --- or whether they had past it. He would not say that they had --- But if they refused to grant the purpose of the present petition; if they rejected measures of oeconomy---from that moment they past the line---from that moment to be the representative of the people, and it was legal, constitutional, and necessary, but the people to assume the trust which their delegates had thrown off. This was the universal sense of the nation --- No Man could be so depraved, so blinded by faction, so ignorant of the constitution, as to deny the doctrine.

SIR,
AS the institution of a Police is virtually intended for the cognizance Removal of every nuisance that may materially affect the Health and conveniance of a Settlement, so the representation of such evils ought to be gratefully receiv'd by the Superintendant and speedily redress'd, The particular one which presents itself to me at this crisis is the late Erection of an extensive Fish Baazar, in the East front of the Esplanade, from whence by the constant assistance of the southern Breezes, such a putrid exhalation issues forth, as seems to portend pestilential Effects. A timely exertion on such an occasion cannot be deem'd unnecessary, more especially as the interposition of Government will not be attended with any expence. I am Sir, &c. &c. &c. SANITAS.

POET'S CORNER
The CHACE.
THE rosy fingers of the morn
Unbarr'd the portals of the East
And Phoebus bids the chearful horn
Invade the slumb'ring sportsman's
rest.
With jolly note it hails the day,
And hark! he hears his comrades
cry,
"The game's in view—away! away!"
O'er hill and dale they swiftly fly.
The hounds pursue the winding hare,
The horses skim the verdant plain,
The Huntsman's halloos cracks the air,
And panting puss retreats in vain.
For flight, alas! is now too late,
She hears wild joy assail the skies.
And tott'ring, overtook by fate,—
She shrieks—she tumbles—and she
dies.
