Mr. GIFFARD gave the most unqualified denial to the insi. nuations concerning him; and repeated that the book contained all he had asserted of it.

Were such expired, and consequently extremely heavy, and the persons the persons who were to pry into the words and actions of on shore pulling the rope too tight, he fell backwards, pitching others his head with great force upon the beach, the weight of the dead body pressing upon him. For a few moments he was quite senseless, and in addition to this violent blow, was otherwise extremely bruised and injured; yet the instant of returning consciousness, regardless of what he had already suffered, the lives of three other persons being yet in jeopardy, he again ard again renewed his generous efforte, till at length, as already related, he was completely successful. To have plunged into the sea once, on the generous impulse of the moment, to save the life of a fellow creature, how much soever to be praised, far from being unprecedented, is not even very uncommon among our gallant seamen; but to presevere so repeatedly after such severe suffering, and when fully conscious of the risque both of health and life, without the slightest expectation of fee or reward, is so high an attainment in complete disinterestedness, and in generous concern for the good of others, as imperiously to demand some general testimony of public approbation. Struck, and deeply impressed, by so remarkable an union of great and extraordinary qualities, some strangers, resident for a short time at Bridlington Quay, have subscribed the sum of twenty pounds, not in the vain hope of pecuniary remuneration for the loss of health and strength, which will probably never be regained, but for the sole purpose of buying a small piece of plate, with an appropriate inscription, to remaio in the family of the heroic sufferer. To his children and friends it will be a grateful memorial, and to others it is hoped, a most powerful stimulus, not merely to admire, but to endeavour to imitate so illustrious an example. In order to realize this intention, a silver cup is now making by Cattle and Barber, jewellers, in this city; on one side of which is to be embossed a ship's anchor, and on the other the following inscription is to be engraved :-" The gift of Strangers to Arthur Miles, an inhabitant of Bridlington Quay; as a memorial of their high admiration of his heroic conduct in saving from the fury of the waves the lives of sixteen persons, on the 30th of April, 1813, Reader, it is not titles or wealth that give true elevation of character: but vain were the praise of men..

HERO OF BRIDLINGTON.-A short Sketch of the History of Arthur Miles, drawn up by a Stranger, without any solicitation on his part, but who wishes to pay a small tribute of respect, and to excite the like sentiment in others, to heroism so illustrious, and to humanity so super-eminent,—Arthur Miles was formerly a seaman in his Majesty's service, till at length obtaining his discharge, he came to live at Bridlington Quay about thirteen years ago. He was soon distinguished by his activity, humanity, and courage, exerted on the various trying occasions so often occurring in a seaport town; and particularly By having been instrumental at different times in saving the lizes of no fewer than six persons, who must otherwise have perished. Bat the most illustrious triumph of these eminent qualities was reserved for the dreadful storm of the 30th of last April, a storm ever to be remembered on the eastern coast of this island, by those who witpes-ed its fury; and yet more by such as were present at the extraordinary exertions it excited in the subject of this imperfect narrative. The life-boat, manned by seventeen persons, many of them masters of little Sunderlan! vessels than in the harbour, going to the assistance of a Sande-load ship, which was driven aground near a place called Wilsthorpe, whout two miles distant from Bridlington Quay, keeping too close in shore, struck, and immediately filed with water. Four of the mes, perceiving their danger, instantly plunged into the sea, hoping to save themselves by swimming; but the boisterous element running mountains high, their progress to land was continually impeded by the receding waves. At this crisis the men in the boat, now nearly quite tinder water, with every billow washing over it, bcing, like heir companions who had left it, completely, exhausted, all most inevitably have perished bad it not been for the uncommon activity, presence of mind, and heroic courage of this extraor dinary person, who, perceiving that not a moment was to be lost,-caused a rope to be fastened about him, and plunged into the sea for their relief. He first succeeded, with the help of under such a cloud of gross darkness, so much so, that the very people who claimed to be the rost enlighteurd of all, took and laid wicked hands on him, and put him to death, because they could not bear the purity of his doctrine, which went to sap the foundation of their superstitions building. And so it has fored more or less with all those before or since his day, that have endeavoured to tread the same path; witness the Prophets, Apostles, and others at different ages of the world, who declared against the 'established religion of the land, whether Jewish, Heathenish, or what is called Christian; be it which it may, the ruling party were always ready to rise up against them, and put them to death, for daring to call in question their mode of faith as prescribed by law."

York, Oct. 15, 1813.

On the night of the 11th ult, the house of Mary Hughes, Dear Usk, was broken open and robbed of 100 guineas in gold, 1007. in cash notes, together with plate, gold rings, wearing apparel, bed and table linen, to the amount of about 1007. more; cheese, butter, a quantity of beef and bacon, and almost very thing portable on the premises. Mrs. Hughes, who is between 69 and 70 years of age, lived alone, and was known by some persons in the neighbourhood to have received 1087, for the sale of coppice-wood a few days before; this, it was supposed, was the temptation for the commission of this must daring and deliberate robbery. A ladder, which was kept in the back premises, was taken by the villaios into an adjoining field, and sawed off, of a proper length to up to the chamber-window, and as soon as Mrs. H. was in bed and had extinguished her light, three or four men broke through the window into her room, and drew up the ladder after them g'having seized the poni affrighted woman, they forced an apple into her mouth by way of gag, and thep rolling her up in the bed. clothes, some of them lay across her while the others plundered the house.

He was in consequence fully committed, and has since impeached his brother and another man, for whom strict search is making.

About twelve o'clock, on Saturday night se'nnight, the house of Mr. Cuthbert Pye, farmer, at Scaffold Hill Still, near Newcastle, occupied by himself, n brother, and two sisters, all advanced in years, was attacked by three men, who entered at a window, which they had previously broken in with a heavy iron mallet. They first secured Messrs. Pe, by locking them up in an inner chamber; while they were thus engaged, one of the sisters effected her escape, and alarmed some neighbouts, who, on coming to the house, found the other sister lying upon the floor insensible, having heen knocked down and otherwise ill treated. The robbers had Яed, and taken with them a wooden chest, containing upwards of 1,300l. which had been boarded in it for some time. A pursuit was instantly made, and the box was found in ag adjoining field, with about 4007. of the money. The robbers have as yet eluded justice, but from the circumstance of their having left the mallet behind, there is great hopes of their being speedily discovered.

FELLING COLLIERY.-Ere we have ceased to announce the receipt of subscriptions for the relief of the sufferers by the dreadful accident which took place at the Felling colliery shout 18 months ago, the melancholy task has again devolved upon us, of recording another disaster almost equally calamifous in its consequences. Last Friday week, about two o'clock, the foul air in the same colliery by some means took fire, carrying death and destruction to nearly every living creatore within the range of its explosion. Nine men, 13 boys, and 12 horses, fell victims to the fury of the blast; and 8 more pit. men were severely scorehed, but who, we understand, are likely to recover. Among the deceased, is Wm. Haswell, overman, who was greatly esteemed in the colliery. By this heartrending occurrence, 8 widows and 18 fatherless children are become the deserving objects of públic compassion and benevolence'; and as nothing has as yet been expended in this town in illuminating our houses for the great events that liave recently occurred on the Continent, in our hàmble àpinion; the expence which would have been incurred by such an expression of public feeling, cannot be appropriated to a better use, than by -ållowing it to flow down the pure current of charity to the relief of the helpless sufferers at Felling,-of whom, we understand the fainilies of Morrow and Young are among the most destitate.-Tyne Mercury.

On Friday week, at Jarrow colliery, a large stone fell on two pitmer while at work, and crushed them to death. Both have left families.—A similar accident happened on Tuesday jást, là the Betty pit, belonging to Mr. Burdon, of Hart ford. Auf named Nicholson, upon whom a large stone fell while ascending the pit, had his head literally cleft in two, and died instantly; whitë another in the same loop had his thigh dreadfully lacerated by the same stone, but, notwithstanding, kept his hold both of the rope and the dead man, till they eached the top. Two men at the bottom of the pit were also mach injured.

This Gazette contains a General Order, addressed to the Portuguese army by Marshal Beresford, shortly after the assault of the French works on the 11th of November, in which the Portuguese officers nud men are much praised for their discipline and courage. It thus eoncludes:-" The Marshal cannoi conclude without thanking the Portuguese army, not only for their conduct in the battle, but also for having done away the necessity of his exhortations, in even deserving his particular approbation for their regular deportment in quarters, and towards the inhabitants. The Portuguese soldiers have no less shewn to the French army their inferiority in the field, and in military qualifications, than evinced to the French nation how much they excel their troops in point of morals, humanity, and good behaviour. By these ingans, as well as by their discipline and valour, have the Portuguese forces so greatly aug mented their country's honour, and established their claim to the particular thanks of their august Sovereign, who is at once the example and the rewarder of all virjues.—Europe will perceive and honour the virtues of the Portuguese mation, as set forth by their army."

Hill, has arrived with a Dispatch, of which the following is
a copy, addressed to Earl Bathurst by Field-Marshal the
Marquis of Wellington, K.G. dated

St. Jean de Luż, Dec. 14, 1813.

MY LORD,-Since the enemy's retreat from the Nivelle, they had occupied a position in front of Bayonne, which rad been entrenched with great labour since the Lattle fought at Vittoria in June last. I appears to be under the fire of the. works of the place, the right rests upon the Adour, and the front in this part is covered by a morass; occasioned by a riulet which falls into the Adour. The right of the centre rests upon this same morass, aud its left upon the river Nive. The left is between the Nive and the Adour, of which river the left rests. They had their advanced posts from their right in front of Anglet and towards Biaritz. With their left they defended the River Nive, and communicated with Gen. Paris's divison of the army of Catalonia, which was at St. Jean Pied de Port, and they had a considerable corps cantoned in Ville Franc! e and Monguerre.—It was impossible to attack the enemy in this position, as long as they remained in force in it. I bad determined to pass the Nive immediately after the passage of the Nivelle, but was prevented by the bad state of the reads, and the swelling of all the rivulets occasioned by the fall of rain in the beginning of that month; but the state of the weather and roads having at length enabled me to collect the materials, and make the preparations for forming bridges for the passage of

under his command, moved forward by the great road from S1.

evening to the ground they had before occupied.

On the morning of the 10th, Lieut.-Gen. Sir Rowland Hill
found that the enemy had retired from the position which they
had occupied the day before on the heights, into the en-
trenched camp qu that side of the Nive; and he therefore oc-
cupied the position intended for him, with his right towards
the Adour, and his left at Ville Franche, and communicating
with the centre of the army, under Marshal Sir Wm. Beres-
ford, by a bridge laid over the Nive; and the troops under the
Marshal were again drawn to the left of the Nive.-General
Morillo's division of Spanish infantry, which had remained with
Sir Rowland Hill when the other Spanish troeps"went into can-
tomments, was placed at Urenray with Col. Vivian's brigade of
light dragoons at Hasparren, in order to observe the movements
of the enemy's division under General Paris, which upon the
passage of the Nive had retired towards St. Palais.

On the 10th in the morning, the enemy moved out of the entrenched camp with their whole army, with the exception only of what occupied the works opposite to Sir Rowland Hill's position, and drove in the picgaets of the light division, and of Sir Juha Hope's corps, and, made a most desperate attack upon the post of the former at the chateau and church of Arranques, and upon the advanced posts of the latter, on the high road from Bayonne to St. Jean de Luz, near the Mayor's house of Blaring. Both attacks were repulsed in the utost galTant style by the troops, and Sir John Hope's corps took about five hundred prisoners.-The brunt of the action with Sir John Hope's advanced post fell upon the 1st Portuguese brigade, under Brigadier Gen. A. Campbell, which were an duty, and 400 Major Gen. Robinson's brigade of the 5th division, which moved up to their support. Licut, Lien, Sir John Hope reports must favourably of the conduct of those, and of all the other troops engaged, and I had great satisfaction in finding that this attempt made by the enemy upon our left, in order to oblige us to draw in our right, was completely defeated by a comparatively small part of our force.

LORD WELLINGTON, as the reader will see in the two Ga-some, to make up any difference that may have occurred zettes, has gained additional reputation by repulsing, in a very fine manner, a variety of attacks on the part of SoULT, and by succeeding in establishing himself on the river Adour, so as to compel the main body of the French to retreat from Bayonne, and to march up the right bank of the Adour; towards Dax. He may now bombard the place if he chuses, and it is understood that he will, and that Sover has already made dispositions for securing positions elsewhere. In the course of these attacks, two regiments of foreign troops in the French service, the Nassau and the Frankfort, deserted from the enemy, and brought us an accession of 1700 men; but on the other hand, a singular desertion is said to have occurred from our own army, ainouating to 1200. The Ministerial papers doubt the assertion; but the Chronicle insists that it has the very best ground for it, and that Lord WELLINGTON has even been obliged to make some severe examples by capital punishment, in order to hinder the depredations that naturally take place in an enemy's territory. The facts are humi fiating enough, but there is this wide difference in desertion from the French anil from us,—that the former are the consequence of political tyranny and compulsory services, and take place perhaps among the worthiest men,-the lat-although they are such as BONAPARTE would gladly aeter arise from sonie local or vagabond temptation, and only deprive us of the worst.

It is somewhat too great a disdain of grammar and lucid order; to tell as that the enemy "retired their force opposite to Sir R. Hit this morning towards Bayonne ;" and a person who wished to atchieve the meaning of the following description, will probably return to the charge more than once. Speaking of the enemy's position, the dispatch says, "it to be under the fite of the works of the place; the right appears res's upon the Adour, and the frout in this part is covered by a morass, occasioned by a rivulet which falls into the Adour. The right of the centre rests upon this same mojass, and it's left upon the river Nive. The left is be tween the Nive and the Adour, on which river the left rests." This passage, we allow, becomes clear with a little attention; but at first it is embarrassing, particularly at the close, and the reader is pushed about from one side to the other, liķe au old bachelor at a patty of blindman's buff.
