On the 22d ult. Mr. THOMAS CAVAN, merchant, of this town.

Pittsburgh, (North America) October 9.
At Mr. James Robertson's (Amelia) on Sunday the 5th instant, departed this life, Mr. THOMAS BELL, late of Belfast, aged 21; after suffering 10 days affliction of a most inflamatory fever, which he endured with great fortitude and composure of mind. Ten months since, Mr. Bell married a young lady of Amelia, who survived wedlock but a few months. After her death, he went to Philadelphia, Baltimore, and other places to the northward, on business which detained him until the 20th ult. at which time he returned to Amelia, was immediately on his arrival attacked with that fever which in ten days time entombed him by the side of his late wife. Thus the horrid ravages of time within the short space of ten months, snatched almost from the alter of Hymen, and hurried to the pale and dismal regions of death this healthy pair. Mortals! of every age and state of health! ye have here a melancholy instance of the precarious and uncertain state of all sublunary things, and particularly of life itself. He is lamented by a numerous acquaintance; and was a man of honour, philantropy, and the utmost liberality.
    He now lies cold in youth and fancy's bloom,
    Consign'd the tenant of an early tomb.

A Special Vestry was held in the parish church of Comber, on Tuesday last, when it was resolved, that they would support their own poor, and that the travelling poor within that parish should be badged. Monthly subscriptions were then entered into for the relief of distressed householders, and a Committee appointed to ascertain their number, and grant badges on those deserving. Lord LONDONDERRY, with his usual goodness and humanity, subscribes very generously; and Sir JAMES BLACKWOOD (not knowing what was done) unsolicited, sent the next day a liberal donation. It is hoped this example will be of use to stimulate other parishes to adopt similar reformations, that idle vagrants may be excluded who have no claim upon the benevolence of society.

EDINBURGH, JANUARY 19.

The following extract of a letter received on Wednesday last, from Capt. Wm. Bunney, of the Mary Frances, of Hull (detained by the Emperor of Russia) dated Novogorood, about 160 miles from Petersburgh, Dec. 3, 1800, will, we hope, satisfy those who have their relations and friends in the same situation, as several paragraphs have appeared in the different newspapers, saying, that from the ill-treatment received, and the severity of the weather, one-half of the prisoners were dead: "I arrived here this day, and march from hence in the morning on the road to Moscow. We have found every civility from our officer and the inhabitants on the road, and was never in better health in my life; we have not had the least fatigue, as we walk or ride as we please. My men and boys are with me, and are all well and in good spirits; Captains Wood and Brown of Hull are in our division, and Captains Bowser and Atkinson, also of Hull, join us every third night on the march. We have tea or coffee twice a day, and one good stew of meat or poultry, which is in great plenty and very reasonable. The merchants in Petersburgh, we shall never be able to repay for their kindness, as they strove who should do the most to serve us; when we set off they furnished us with money and victuals in abundance, and every other accommodation to make us comfortable. Shall write you again on my arrival at Moscow (which I expect will be about the 1st of January) where I have a number of friends; and my ship's company shall have every assistance and comfort that I can procure them."
