Everybody here takes it for granted that these pirates did not act Ow *nitwit orders, but the hope of the person who sent them has been disappointed. The English had known for a %seek before that a coup de main was to be at tempted to seize the Sparith Constitutionalists who bad al rived here from TangierF. In consequence of the r - monsttances of the Spanish Consul, the Governor c f Gibraltar had ordered these unfortunate per sons to ; o on board the vessels-in the bay, but as soon as be was informed of the plot formed against them, he revoked this order, so that when the 'vessel in question was carried away, Frias was on his way to London, and the others slept in the town. This aggression has produced inergetic remonstrances from our Governor. The captured vessel was immediately released, and has le ruined to this port. General O'Donnel, in his order, has thought it proper to - put his pirates in prison. Nevertheless, the Governor has sent an account of tins affair to the Brit;sh Ambassador at Madri.i. lie insists that the criminals shall be proceeded ag riost,as pirates. The day before yesterday_ a brig belonging to the United States sailed from this place to Llgesiras, to take on board the eldest son of Murat, who being here to emb irk as a passenger on board a vessel bound to the United States, was arrested on the Spanish territory, and detained for a length of time in prison. We learn that in consequence of orders which the French Military Goieririr of Cadiz has received from his Government, he has withdrawn the protection wh ch he granted to pers.rns prosecuted for political tra e gressions, and that the Spanish police has regaineJ its influence. Twenty-four hours had not elapsed after the Zca anchored in the Bay of Cadiz, when we knew that she brought the confirmation of the overthrow of the Ro)- alists in Peru. • Tickets and Shares are now on Sale at J and J.

" JOHN STAPLETON, Sec." 14 Plymouth Lines May 26, 1667. 14 This is to certify, that by order of General_ Mercer, at the desire of Messrs. M'Adam and Co. we made experiments with their preparations of Mineral Brown Paint in April and S.-p -tember, 1906. The situation of the wood and iron work made use of in this experiment is very high, and entirely exposed to the wind from the Monet, inhere it is difficult to find any coating able to resist the weather. The paint, after having withstood the winter in the above situation, has formed a very hard and com- IPaet body on Toth wood and iron work ; the wood when cut is hard and very dry ; the iron free from every appearance of rust.— From the present appearance of the Mineral Brown Paint, Its hard, solid, and impenetrable state, there is every reason to believe that it will defend the wood and iron work for years against the effect of weather and the moisture of the atmosphere ; and we give it as our opinion, that it is a useful coating for wood and iron work exposed to the weather or to damp, and consider it 'to be cheaper than any other that can be procured.
