Th-se )list settlers had difficulties to struggle with, of which none can form an ads qua' e cenception,except those who expetieoced them. . Bu by perseverance these diffic . tftiesw ere surmounted, and the province has continued to advance in prosperity to a degree not supassed by any of his Majesty's foreign pos sessions, until checked by the late melancholy events : as a proof of which, we beg leave to mention that no less a suns than 200,0001. was paid into then eAsury of Great Britain last year from the commer:e of this province. Although we have deemed it our duty to stare these facts, we are cer.ain that nothing is required to call Inch ti e liberality of the..ll , itish nation, but a well authenticated tale of woe. It has ever been the glory of that country to allevi..te hum in mi• ery in all its vas io !O: nu, by every means within the reach of hum in poser. When we call to remembrance, that in the diffusion of this charity thealistioction of sir inger and foreigner has been slink in that of man, and that even the n itives of a country long honile, when cast as exile, upon the shores of Britain in the shock occa sioned by a great revolution, Mond an asylum and a to me, we indulge the hope that the sufferings cf a people, while glory it is to form a part of tit et ens pit; derived ftom the same origin, speaking the same laneus s e, ,abject to the same taws and form of Ga vel r:inent, hiessed with the same divine religion, and yielding to ;.one in loyalty to the august and gracious Prince at present on the Throne, will not in this day of deep .'is less, ',lead in vain.

We on Wednesday published the letter of the Em necinado's mother to kng Ferdimind, praying him to extend mercy to that Patriotic Chief, and describing the cruel treatment to aahich be had. been subjected, as well as the false testimony ol which be had been condemned. His Catholic Majesty, who was flattered in the appeal to his clemency, seems to have lent a de.il e.ir to the agonizing Petition fur which the flattery was intend .d to procure a favourable rcceptio-t. The fi st letter was dated the '26th of June. Olt the6th* of August she addressed a second supplication to the Roy 4 mercy, containing similar ailegations of the in suffic'ency of the evidence, the corruption of the wit nesses, the partitqty of the Judge, and the monstrous injustice of the sentence. She had in the interval heard that Ferdinand had submitted the senre►:ce (which was death by hanging) to his judicial advi , ers, and that they had given their opinion in favour of his execution. A great portion of her second appeal is, therefore, directed to thew that the services of the Empecinado deserved the favourable consideration of his Majesty—liat the King owed him thanks _insteid of punishment, and that even though he latterly may have erred, his mis conduct was covered by a capitulation %%hick ought not to be violated. The twenty-two months of impri sonment which frillowed this unjust wrest, had been embittered by the mostwanton cruelties, and the most exquisite tortures. Stich a punishment was more than sufficient t overbalance his-offences. She, therefore, again begs his Maje.ty to permit his liberation, and to grant him a passport out of the kingdom. ' 0.1 the same day (the 6th of August) she addressed letters to the French and Eni,lish Ambassadors at the Court of Madrid; beseeching them to litter-lei e for the life and liberty of lier son. We subjoin the last as be ing the most curious:— LI'RICE SEVEN PENCE 'give you some 'idea of the extia.riimary manner in which he ha, been treated, c-ntr.rry to the rights of tons and the laws rf the State. Is is notorious that in . tliQ 4th article of the capitul at i on whichGer.cral Platen is c . •nclude i with General Laguna, he guaranteed, in - he pan e of P;rdinand VII. individual security to Mair'r- General D m Juan rtin, the Empecinado, and all th iperscns in the column which he commits !ed. This capi tulation wac likewise authorized by the French Gerter.i, 'and in consequince of it her son received passports to retire to Arend. tile Duero. Assured of the strict ac comp liment of this convention, in which the honour of the sing was implicated. as well ar the honour of FrAnce, which interfered as mediator, he was retiring to the town in which he was to reside, without any appre hemion 4 bring ino7ested, far less of seeing Ifs existence threatened. But all faith was broken. The E•opecinad•a was insulted and captured at °irons, in the jurisdiction Penafiel, and was delivered over to be tried by the Co-- regiJor of ltoa, Dpn Domingo Fuentenebro. I raty rather say he was dr live..ed to his assassin, who w.-. 3 eager to :iv ifice him—to a traitor, 'shorn the Empeci nada had arrested, and was about to shoot during the war of independence. The crimes laid to nis charge were said t ) I ave beencommitte I against his coon ry andlegitimate 8314: Fuentenebro saw an opp . .r. tunity of. - revengihg and seized • upon it rth pleasure. Th re was no violence to which he his n t had recourse. The trial, it. is true, will yield woofs of atrocious crimes; but what reliance can be placed on ti‘e evidence of perjored witnesses and interested informer.? How can a trial be legal at which a partial Judge aid a portal enemy to the accused presided? How can a judgment be good, which contains as many lies as letters? And how co 11(1 a meritmilus General be condemn-d, who was twenty one months imprisoned, without being allowed commo n:cation with his legal advisers, or the opportunity of entering on his defence? For that which was called a defence, was mere)" a form introiuced by the savage Fuentenebro, to cave judicial appear a nces. The s e fact., Sir, together will the cruel treatment which he suffered. during his imprisonment, miga be proved by irresisti ble evidence, we e time allowed to hying forward the necessary te-timony ; but that not being possible, an an guished mother must limit herself to a supplication, that your Excellency, out of your goodness, and out of•re spec t for a pet son whose reputation is not confined to her own country but belongs to Spain and to Europe, deign to interpose your power tol influence with the Ca binet of his Catholic Majesty, to cause the cap:tulation made with the Ernpecinado to be observed, and to sus pend the execution of a sentence which wouid throw ail eternal stigma on the memory if a Sovereign for whom he has so often f •ced death, and watered with his . bloo the plains of Castile—the son of the afflicted and unfor tunate motl•er who now implores your pity, and prays that Goo may long receive your life. Castello de Duero, Aug. G. DUTCH INDI FROM THE DVITII covEttsuEyr GAZETTE, 12M MAY. Dispatches !ive been received last night from Ma cassar via Sourabaya, announcer g the taking of capital of Boni, by the expedition . seot tht•ie under rli:t cornmintl of Major-Gene: al Van Gt , en. We have nc‘sr the pleasure to lay lirose our Readers an extract of the repent teteived. On the 77th of February, Glneral Vin Geen having made all possitee exenims to forward the fitting out of the ezpeditiou under his command, embat kcd his troops it Macaw; ir, accompanied by the Kinp, of Goal). with 400 men, fesides two Tomi Wings of Goah, who had marched ir det rchinents the •day before, through Bankala, Hiner' o. and Tutu, to Bonthain. Having mule sail on the 28th, the squadron arrived the fol lowing day in B•nthain Roads, where all accounts re ceived, gave us to understand, that the enemy mete. reinforcing themselves close in the ne ghbourhood Kf ' 11 , elicamba, arid had er( cted the!r batteries within the distance of a pistol-shot from the foit, the garrison of which, KeakeneJ through sickness, arid short of all soi is of provisions,w as unable to prevent his approaches.. Upon this, the General determined to disembark troops, and take tl.e positions of Biankeke and Battoo 13alli, occopied by the enemy, in order to relieve the garrison of Boelictruba, which had bern cut (If from all cons• . muti.ctnion for a coioiderable time; 600 men, infa!ltry and cavalry, with two pounders and two howitzers, were in consequence lan.feJ, to march from Bonthain to Boelicamba. We, the undersigned, having been appointed a Com mittee to devite means for the relief of those who have suffered in Ftederitton, from the effects of the late lamentable conflagration, deem it a duty which we owe to them, as well as to others involved in the same distress, to endeavour, through you, to excite the com• passion, and to call firth, in their behalf, the liberality of the British natiom This Province has hitherto in general been exempted, in a remarkable manner, from visitations of an awful nature, until, during the course of a few weeks past, we have been destined to feel the destructive ravages r f fire in no common degree. On the 19th of last month, the Government house, in the immediate vicinity of this town, accidentally caught fire, and in spite of every effort to save it, was in a short time, with the exception of a sm4ll part of the building, consumed. On the 7th of October, a fire' was discovered rn the premises of the C-‘mmissioner of CrOwn - Larids and Forests, about a mile from town: this drew out the fire-engines, the troops of the gar rison, and the greater part of the inhabitants, leaving few in the town but a omen and children, and the least efficient pact of the population. Whilst in this - de ertceless state, a fire unfortunately troke out in town: %hen this was repotted, as many as possibly could, made every haste to reach town; but from the fatigue and exhaustion they had previously undergone, the weather then being intensely and un seasonably hot, and the wind blowing with great vi-.- knee, they were for along time unable to stop the pro gress of the Hanle , . The devouring element raged with great fury until neat I y nine o'clock at night.a hen it was, thrt-ugh the persevering efforts- of the inhabitants and ir.ilitary,•aidecl by the blessing riG D, &sally checked eirty-one dwelliiia-housei, with their oui-houses; be. sides - stbreslheing about one third of the' wlusle town) have been destroyed in Fredericton, in all O. buildings. But this calamity, dreadful as it it, can scarcely be compared with a hat sae have to relate if other parts at the prosit.ce. On the riv- r alabist twenty. five miles from this place, fifteen hou es were destroyed on the same evening, there children burnt to death, two others and the mother much burred, and the father ; and al.o in the same ill- fated night; the town of wc,.sO'c, Shout one hundred and twemy iuiles di,tant, Here follow the details of the march to Ploelicamba, where the detachment art ived on the sth, having taken the stockades of B ankeke and Battoo Balli, and a num ber of others, without the ei:emy %hewing any inclination to oppose them. On the 9th the troops were re•embarked, and the . squadron made sail for the harbour of Boni,where, after having touched at Singai, and destroyed the enemy's batteries,.they arrived on the 20th, and anchored se to Badjoa ; on reconnoitring the position of the enemy, it was found that batteries had been erected all along the beach, mounting from 50 to 60 guns, part of which consisted of eight and twelve founders. Toe fortifica tions appeared to be m. de in a very skilful manner, and consist of a stone wall six feet in breadth, with a parapet • of three feet, and joining this way Badjoa with Bena, and Tepotoe to the northward, and Berobo to the south.— Besides this, between Badjoa and Berobo, a .strong stockade was erected in the jungle. Having found a ' 4 `, • landing place to the northward of the batteries, tote Gene. al ordered the troops to be held in readiness for disembat kation the next morning; they commenced at two o'clock, when about eight hunched men, with tour mot tars and some Congreve rockets were landed. —A detachment of 150 men was immeiiately ordered to march behind B.:robo, and attack the enemy from that quarter ; whilst the rest were to attack him in front and on the flanks ; on seeing _these movements, the enemy left Berobo in great haste, but was received by e detachment placed in their rear, with a smart fi'e of musquetry.; which, however destructive it proved* ,did Lot prevent them from making their escape to the • otoutit oils.
