We have alto received the following letters from Gibraltar : GIBRALTAR, NOVEMBER so. " On the sth infant a Spaniard, of the name of Gonzales, who had altatinated a Spanifh Gen tleman in Grenada in Auguft la% was delivered up from the Garrifon, where he had fled for re fuge, to the Officers of Juftice who were fcnt in purfuit of him by the Spanith Government. " The Spanifli Government at the fame time re-. quelled another murderer to be delivered up who had affaffinated feveral people tome years ago, and who had alto taken ffielter in the garrifon.— This, however, hii Royal Highnefs the Governor unfortunately found himfelf retrained from doing, by the late Treaty of Peace, which only includes crimes committed fubrequently to that period, Aid which the villain ftrongly urged on his being prehended ; his Royal Highnefs was thefefore under the neceffity of expreffing to the Spanith Commandant the extreme regret he felt at being precluded by the articles of the Treaty Clink alto delivering that affaffin immediately into his hands; but as murder was a crime ofall others that never would find proteEtion from a Britilh Girrifon, he thould inftandy order the villain to 'be turned out of the place, which was accordingly done, by landing him on the neutral groUnd, where he would probably fall into the hands of the Spaniards. 44 Affaffinations have Of late become extremely frequent in tome parts of Spain. Upwards of 20 have been executed . for murder, within thefe three months, in the province of Grenada alone. "An Engliffi frigate under a crowd of fail palled, on the 3d inf. through the Streights, to the *A ward : the was three times fired at by the Porta guefe fquadron, which always cruizes in the Gut during an eafterly wind, before the (hewed her colours : the mull probably have been charged with difpatches from the fleet, for England.

Letters from Jacmel Rate, that a general malf,tcre of the Whites had taken place, after which A pillage of the tow n enfued. We hope this Ratement is exaggerated. Port an Prince was faid to be clofely befieged by the Infurgents. The American merchants are not only obliged to pay fevere contributions, but to enrol themfelves in the National Guard. The above intelligence is certainly the moft re cent. from St. Domingo. It appears, therefore, that the Ifland has not been evacuated, as was reported. It is evident, however, that the French army is in a very critical fituation, and nothing but (peedy reinforcements can enable them to afi, even on the defenfive, with.fuccefs. Letters from Martiniquie bring no information of confequence. Everrtasing , was quiet in the ifland, but the markets ware dull. The Awl. cans complain that 'already they have begun to experience injultice on the part of the French c r . vernment in the gland. They mention inftaneet where flips, which had paid the duties to the Bri. tilh Governor, had been laid under embargo di; they were paid anew to the French Cuttom3mufe Officers. A letter from a Gentleman in George-town, (peak: of three French frigates having anchored of Longbay, and landed nearly a • thoufand Ne groes, whom they had brought from St. Domingo. The inhabitants in that vicinity were immediately put under arms, and marched for the purpofe of fending away here new vifitants. The Rory is not generally credited, and, indeed, appears on the face of it very improbable. . . THOMAS PAINT has arrived at Baltimore, where his appearance excited a great deal of curiofity.--- He had not been waited upon by any of the prin cipal inhabitants of the town. His arrival has given a new handle for the difplay of party fpirit, and the Prefident is 'again held up as the friend and protedoir of this noted character. It is fuffi ciently underftood among all candid men, that the return of PAINE to the United States was a mea lure with which the Government had not the fmalleft connedion. In the Eledions the Federal party feems Rift gaining ground. . • According to a private Letter from Paris, the French Government is determined to perfevere its attempts to reduce to fubje!tion the Blacks in St. Domingo. Four !lops of war are to be built at Yarmouth for his Majefly's Navy : this is the only inflance of (hips of war being built at that place. Ail Officers belonging to the Staff of the Army in the Weft Indies, are ordered to repair to their refpeetive quarters with all poflible difpatch. This order has been occafioned by the great number of Officers belonging to the Staff Efiabliflunent who had obtained leave to return to England, on the conclufion of peace. The sth battalion of the 6oth Regiment, com manded by that excellent Officer Colonel de Rol.- TRMBOURC, is to winter at 'rrinidad, and proceed in the fpring to Halifax, where it will probably continue for fome years. The difcipline and good conduEt of this corps have been the fubjed of and_ general encomium.
