We cannot ogee a better instance of this trait in the character of the Lord Rec.. tot than by stating that. on Friday last, he was pleased to Meet with Sapper party, consisting of nearly fifty Students, at the house of James Blair, H.q. Blythswnod Hill. Beanies the other splendid arrangements of the evening, there was an excellent musical band Is attendance.

Clavering, sailed on her return to the coast of Africa. Every Officer who has visited the Coast of Africa expresses the greatest surprise at the erroneous opinion that we in England have formed of the Island of Fernando Po, situate in the Bight of Benin —said tit be chosen as our future principal African Colony. The favourable opinion imbibed has been principally formed upon an article written by a Gentleman of great experience in African matters. This island is described to us as being remarkably un healthy, profusely covered with vegetation, and liable, from the sur rounding high lands, and its own altitude, to be continually visited with tornadoes, and is enveloped In unwholesome miasma. It does not contain a single harbour, and scarcely even an anchoring ground. • It is inhabited by about 10,000 people, of the must savage .nd des perate character, who are proverbially inimical to any intrusion on their ground, on the part of Europeans, no one ever having gone beyond the beach, without having a spear thrown at him. A fort may be built by force, but the garrison, must never expect to go beyond the pallisades. His Royal Highness the Lord High Admiral issued au official notification on Wednesday, that he had ou that day taken the com mand and direction of his Majesty's Fleet. Tuesday, Admiral the Hon.
