LONDON, MONDAY, Novi masa 21, 1821. • Last night we received the Paris papers of Friday, in eluding the E foile, bearing the date of the following day. They bring an important piece of intelligence. The Posit has transmitted a communication to the Court of Madrid, stating in substance, that unless the late Spanish colonies are again speedily reduced to subjection, his Holiness will, in defence of the interests of religion, be compelled to give canonical institution to the Bishops nominated by the new authorities. Some time ago, when there was a possible doubt as to the success of the patriots, their envoys to Rome were treated with indignity and dismissed with con- tempt ; but the subsequent course of events, and the spirited manner in which the insidious attempts of his Holiness to sow dissentient in the new states were met and defeated, have rendered' it necessary, in order to avoid the risk of separation, that the Pori should enter imme diately into direct relations with the actual governments. By the statement of the tiloite, the POPS is represented to have urged " his Catholic Majesty to snake effective ex ertions to bring back his colonies under his dominion." Some of the other papers contain an article in the same terms ; but the Cowrie? Francais gives a different and more probable version of the application, and adds, " In such an emergency his Holiness announces that he shall shortly be under the necessity, for the good of the faithful and the interests of the Catholic Apostolic Roman Church, to recognise the Bishops chosen by the dissident governments, and to give them canonical institution." The Pore also has withdrawn his consent to the re establishment of the Inquisition in Spain. Circumstances have so changed lately, in his opinion, that its powers were only liable to abuse. When were they not abused ? In the nature of things they are such as no human being can exercise without abuse. The Consultative Junta still nista, though it appears by the private correspondence from Madrid, that reports were confidently circulated that it would be suppressed immediately. The French Funds are rather drooping again. [From the Etoik, dated Saturday, Nov. 19.1 PARIS, Nov. 18. The English Journals have - made a mistake in announcing. a few days ago, we do not know with what intention, twat Sir Hudson Lowe had returned to London. The fact that Sir Hudson did not leave Paris till Tuesday last, the Isth of this morth. and that. instead of returning to England, he is going, by way of Vienna and Constantinople, to the isle of Ceylon, of which he is appointed Go. vemor. It is said that the Court of Rome has just transmitted to the Duke del Infantado a note, to the effect that his Holiness can no longer pee, with indifference, the want of Bishops in the Spanish American provinces; and that he considers it as his duty to urge Ike government of his Catholic Majesty to make effective exertions to bring back those colonies under its dominion, or to take such other measures as may enable the Pope to nominate the Bishops in question, without producing any disputa or acrimony between the two Courts. _ _ _ _ _ _ The tempest of the 9th snd 10th was dreadful nn the coast about Rochfort, and several vessels were more orless damaged. The effects of the storm extended to the Pyrennees. The wind blew with a degree of violence which there has been no instance since 1820. The snow which covered the Pyrennees was almost entirely melted during the night. It wes feared at Pau that great damage bad been done in the mountains. Mariam, Nov. 8. The following is a passage In a note delivered by the Papal Nuncio at Madrid on the subject of the IntifiKition : " The motives which had induced the Holy See to consent to the re-establishment of the Inquisition no longer existing, this re-es. tablishment becomes null and without object, and besides, his Ho. lima considers it impolitic, under present eirecumstancee,because the effavescence of the pensions, added to human weaknee, might sometimes render the tribunal of the Inquisition hurtful in the bands of parties, by turning it aside from the holy anti primitive object of that institution, and thus rendering it more odious than profitable." The Consultative Junta, which it was said was to be at: pressed after the dismissal of M. Zea, has resumed its labours. 1 hus, all the reports to which the fall of the Minister gave occasion have tinned false, and not even a single clerk placed by him has yet been dismissed from hie employment.

Yesterday we received the Aggemeine Zeitang of the 19th inst. The following paragraph contains the latest advice. from Greece : " TRIESTE, Nov. 2. "According to accounts from Illissolonghi, of sth ,Uctober, the Turks were still before that place, but, add the (Greek) accounts, all the defiles through which they must make their retreat were occu pied by the Greeks, so that if the siege is raised, they must light their way. Ibrahim Pacha seems to wait at Tripolizza for rein forcements from Alexandria. The Capitan Pacha's fleet was still in that port on the 23d of September, taking in provisions, nor was it known when it would sail. The number of troops to be embarked was 12,000 men, well disciplined. The Austrian flotilla was scat. tend in the Archipelago, as far as Rhodes, to protect the merchant. men of their nation. !slimy ships from the Levant have arrived at Trieste, but bring no news from the theatre of war." A Buenos Ayres Mail arrived on Saturday, with letters to the 10th September. The following is an extract from one of them :—" As to the Banda Oriental, I will tell you what report says, and what is generally believed to be true. LAVALLEJA is said to have upwards of 3,000 men, and seems to have the command of the camp. Several skir mishes have lately taken place near Colonia, and the Brazi lians at last have retired into the town, which is small but very strong. Marshal Alum:, who commands the Brazi lian forces outside Monte Video, is said to be on the Rio Grande side of the Rio Negro, with upwards of 2,000 men. The whole of the Brazilian fortes are about 6,000 men, many of which are infantry, and of no service but inteep ing possession of Monte Video and Colonia. Until the Governmtnt has received BOLIVAR'S reply to the repre sentations made to him, it is iroplosaible to say how the disturbances will conclude. The Exchange is 46 pence per dollar." The circumstance of foreign wrought silks being admis sible into this country on the sth of July next, on payment of an ad valorem duty of thirty per cent. haa, we lament to say, thrown the London trade into the greatest perplexity. The well-founded alarm expressed by the silk manoritc hirers has extended itself, as was natural enough, to the silk mercers. In the anxiety of all to guard against being overstocked, each takes the least possible supply, that he may be exposed to the least possible less, on any sudden fall of prices occasioned by the importations ; the manufacturers have consequently no more orders than will feed the reduced stock of the mercers, and both are begin ning to feel severely the effects of this embarrassed state of the trade, while the prospect before them is everything but that of relief. It is cilculated that Dot fewer than a hundred thousand workmen will be actually thrown out of bread by the intro duction of fcreign wrought silks, inasmuch as the ad valorem duty of :.t0 per cent. will be utterly insufficient to counter vail the advantages possessed by foreigners in the low price of labour and provisions, and the comparative freedom from taxation. It will surely be well to contemplate before hand the possibility of such a result as this, and to pause while it is yet not too late to provide against it. The French Government, always alive to its own into. rests, and seldom failing to profit by whatever can promote them, prohibits, under very severe penalties, the introduc tion of wrought silk from China or the East Indies. Francs does this,although possessing all those advantages over Great . • THE BRITISH PRESS. Britain which 'we bate just adverted to. Can it be sound policy in the one to admit what the other Ands it so essen tially her intkrest to exclitde? Are we not alike plighted to the silk manufacturer to protect him against a foreign competition, with which he isStill more unable to contend, because in England the means of living are much dearer, and wages much higher, and where taxation forms, in a much greater degree, a component part of price in every article of consumption? If the total prohibition of foreign wrought silk is found necessary for the protection of the French manufacturer, can our manufacturers, after the Sth July, export British silks with any chance of a market ? The system of smuggling has become so well organised that there are no articles of contraband which may not be obtained, in any quantity and to any amount, at a premium of fifteen per cent. on their value. It is a fact well known that on payment of this ad unlorein, the articles smuggled will be forwarded, either to London or to any part of the kingdom, and consigned in safety to the party. Silk being an article of light weight, of small bulk in proportion to Its value—and transportable with less risk titan al most any other article of contraband traffic—combines all the temptations to smuggling, and requires therefore to be protected with peculiar care. It requires to be more surrounded than any other with salutary regulations. What benefit, we would ask, can accrue to the British manufacturer, either directly or indirectly, from the re moval of the prohibition of fordgn wrought silk ? The benefit to be derived from this measure ought not only to be very clear in the prospect, but very considerable in it self, to justify an . experiment which, should it fail, will entail misery on such a mass of industrious workmen, while it annihilates all the profits to the revenue from their skill and labour. If the British silk manufacturers were wrestling with obstacles which they could not overcome—if they had prayed the interference of the Legislature for the removal of any specific gt ievance by which their trade was affected— and if that grievance was such as pointed to the introduc tion of foreign silks at a protective duty of thirty per cent. as a remedy, then would the policy of resorting to such a measure be manifest. But when no complaint is made —when they neither seek nor require aid from the state—un der such circumstances to repeal the prohibitory law, on the faith of which they invested their capital—to lay them open to a rivalry with which they cannot hope to contend with success—to expose theta to the imminent risk of being supplanted by foreigners, who offer them no equiva lent in return, and who Meet', cannot, if they were even so disposed, indemnify them by any commercial arrange ment, we speak with deference when we say that, to us, there appears nothing to invite such a measure, or to war rant it. It should be first shown what evils, if any, are occasioned to the British silk manufacturers by the prohi bitive system; and next, that the introduction of foreign wrought silk is the true remedy. But as no such evils existed, this was clearly not called for as a remedial measure. If there was an insufficient supply of British silks, or if silk were an article of necessary consumption, and which re quired, therefore, to be brought as much as possible within the reach of the poorer classes, these might be reasons for having recourse to this mode of increasing the supply and reducing the price. Necessity might then be pleaded in bar to the claims of the British manufacturer for protec tion and justice. But as no such necessity exists, the in jury is gratuitous, and the prosperity of the country is disturbed, and, as regards this important article of its com merce, absolutely destroyed by a concession in favour of the foreign manufacturer, to whom the interests of the British silk weavers are made to yield. The system of trade is in this country hountkap indisso lubly with the system of finance; it has, in consequence of this relation, so many difficulties to cope wish, and so many discouragement* to overcome, that to let loose upon it the principles of free trade—for which some persons are such enthusiastic advocates—would be to ruin the capital ists, and to drive them, together with their wealth, skill, and machinery, to the Continent, where they might profit by the low price of provisions, the light taxations, and all those advantages which they have now to contend against. Before these j;rinciples can be either safely or fairly acted upon, you must first restore the equilibrium of prices. bile our national debt bears so enormous a disproportion to that of our continental neighbours, you cannot legislate as if that disproportion did not exist. While taxation enters so largely into the price of every article of British manufacture, it is vain to expect either that they will find their level in the foreign market, or that they can compete with foreign produce when admitted to our own market. Great as are the advantages which we derive from the su periority of British capital, anti the activity of British.en. terprise, yet, when we consider how anxiously our conti nental rivals strive to exclude our manufactures, though in opposition to their own real interests, it requires that on our part we should take great heed, lest we incautiously second the efforts which they are so unceasingly employing against us. Look at the Russian Tat ill; as it respects British goods. I Look at the Prussian ' equally unfavourable. In Austria, a few mercenary Nobles that—subduing the pride to their selfishness—have turned manufacturers, have prevailed upon their Government to prohibit our manufactures. France acts toe:at.ls our trade in the same jealous and ex clusive spirit. With all this counteraction from every quarter to contend with, it behoves us, before we yield ad- vantages, to be quite sure of our equivalents. How for they will be obtained by the opening of the silk traule, we shall take occasion to inquire when we again resume the subject CITY, SATURDAY EVENING, There has been no very extensive business transacted in Consols this morning, but the prices have fully maintained themselves. last night's closing quotation being the conclud ing price of this evening, y); . ., 5i 6 for this Account, and for that in January. The transactions in the Foreign Market have been to-day very extensive, and the increased value of South American Securities was both unexpected and important. T he im provement, it was stated, arose from the fact that the neces sary remittances have been received both from Colombia and Chili, for the payment of. the Dividends when they become due. This satisfactory intelligence, as might na turally be expected, had an electrical effect upon the Stocks connected with the New States, but particularly on those of Chili and Colombia. The former rose from 55 57 to 65 70, and the latter were once to-day done at 70, and they left off at 691. Chilian Bonds even yesterday were as low as 53, making an imptovement of 17 per cent. in almost as many hours ; mid, during the panic, they have been as low as 50. Brazilian &Tip closed at 9A this. Mexican Bonds were 73i 4; Spani . sh ditto were 16 164; and Greek ditto WA 3. The gloom in this Market seems already to have pa.sqd away. _ _ _ Some purchases were attempted to be made towards the close of the Market in the Shares of the *Parma, Iluanca vallco and Gualiayar Company, at 20/. premium, but holders would not part with them at that price. Our readers will recollect that we noticed, some days since, this Association, as a private speculation for working some mines in Central Peru, the shares or which were distributed to the subscribers last week. The other business in Shares was unimportant Our readers will perceive by the letter of our Liverpool Correspondent, that another accident has occurred with a steam packet. In the present instance, a brig was run down, and two passengers, a man arid his wife, who were below, perished, before the boat sent from the strain packet could reach the sinking vessel. One of the crew, who also was under deck, escaped through the chasm made by the concussion. _ „ FRENCH PAPERS. (From the Etcrik, dated Friday : l PARTS, Nov. 17. It is asserted that the American Commodore Rogers lila been must distressed with the refusal which he received from the Porte on the subject of the navigation of the American ships in the Bosphorus, and that he has written a threatening letter to the Reis Effendi. M. De Lieberman, Counsellor of Legation. and Charge des Affair's from Prussia to Mad id, has been named Envoy Extraor dinary and Plenipotentiary from his Prussian Majesty to the same Court PO3T3CRIPT.—We have just received the Madrid Journals, with the speech which (he Marquis de Moustier addressed to the King of Spain on presenting his credentials. It was as follows: " SIRE—The King, my august Master, in honouring me with the title of Ambassador to your Majesty, has ordered me to renew to your Majesty the assurances of the friendship rod affection with which he is animated towards your Royal rerus, sad the vows which he addresses to Heaven for the glory and prosperity of your reign. " The heart of your Majesty—the house from which you de scend, and the troubles which you have endured, have not faded to make you appreciate all the sincerity, and all the extent of those sentiments, of which it k sogioriottx to me to be the organ. . • .„ " Sire-11y mission will he fulfilled, and my most anxious de sires will be satisfied, if 1 succeed in gaining the confidence and favour which I solicit your Majesty to accord to me. • " Every effart of zeal and every testimony of respectful attach. ment, of which your Majesty will deign to permit me an offer the tribute, will be constantly employed to merit so great a favour." Ilia Majesty received with his accustomed kindness and peculiar affability the A mbassador from France, who was afterwards pre. sented to the Queen and to their Royal Highnesses, by whom he was honoured with an equally distinguished reception. [From the Pitote of Friday.) FRANKFORT, Nov. 12. PIIIVATE CORRESPONDS NCI. On the authoritiM — fetterS — i;,WW. — Y;ershurgh, news of very great importance lista been circulated through Germany. It is said that the Emperor Alexander, who, as is well known is his own Minister for Foreign Affairs, has declared, in the most imsitive manner. his intention to introduce the pacific system into Greece as well as into the rest of E u rope. As they attribute this new policy to a motive, the justice ot which cannot be questioned—namely, that the powerful intervention of Russia can alone counterbalance the dangers of English interference, it is foreseen that if the Greek. , maintain an attitude of independence, the pacification may be ac complished before the opening of the next campaign. People even go the length of saying, that, till now, the Russian Emperor has given England an account of all his former efforts with the Divan, to redress the grievances known to have existed with respect to the Principalities, but that now he has at last discovered that his frank. ness has been abused, and that the true object of the diplomatic courtesy manifested on the part of the English Ministry. was to turn the attention of the Emperor from the affairs of Greece, in order to prevent his folios ing this impulse, which had been given hint by the opinion of all Russia, and to make him sacrifice the pmsperity of his Empire to the ambitious views of England, his rival. LISBON PAPERS. _ LISBON. Nov. 4. The Gazette gives a very long account of a visit paid by his 11a. jesty and the Royal Family to the great hospital, on the 2.7 th of September. After hearing divine service in the chapel of the hospital, which was filled with a vast concourse of the most dia. tinguished persons, his Majesty examined every part of that noble inethution. His Majesty, in passing through the wards. was cvi. dently much affected at the various forms of suffering which presented themselves to his notice. On the solicitation of the chief surgeon, his Majesty granted to the hospital two private lotteries of 12,000 tickets each ; confirmed the part which the hospital had in those of the 311mericordia; again sanctioned the weekly payment of 500 milrees by the public Treasury ; or. dered a new infirmary for the convalescent; and, in short, we may say every step was marked by some fresh testimony of his royal munificence: . _ _ On the 22d of last month M. P. Arno Borg, fotinder of the Royal Institution for the Deaf and Dumb and the Blind, at Stockholm, and who was appointed by his Majesty our Sore. reign to found a similar Institution in this city, had the honour to present to his Majesty and to th e i r R oya l Highnesses the Infantas two puptls of the schools for the deaf and dumb, aged ten and twelve years' respectively. They presented to their Royal Patroness the Infanta D. Isabella Maria two hymns, ad. dressed to her Royal Highness by the two classes of the establish ment, written in a good hand by a boy and a girl in the school; after which his Majesty was pleased to have them examined in his pfesenee. They wrote satisfactory answers to questions put to them in writing; wrote down what the Professors dictated ; de. scribed in writing the objects shown to them ; pronounced their names, solved some questions in arithmetic; and, in short, proved what art can accomplish towards the relief of individuals in their afflicting situation. From this first essay of the progress of the deaf and dumb in the few months that the establishment has been opened there is every reason to expect that it will rival the many excellent Institutions of the same kind in other countries.

By the last mail which arrived in this city from La Carrera de Cum we learn, that on the 21;th July, Senor Carrel, the Governor, was arrested by part of the soldiers nt the „garrison. The following day he was Net at liheray, and another Govetnor chosen in his room. There is still so much uncertainty respecting the nature and the results .of this unexpected event, that we refrain from all r - flections, till we shall receive more correct and circumstantial d - tails. SEPTEMBER 3. The hat mail from Mendoza has brought us the disagreeable news, that in spite of the Treaties of Conciliation which had been made between the factious who occupy San Juan and the inhabit. ants who had assembled in the`ails de Angsco, the tinnier still remained in possession of tile city ; their numbers being in creased by all the criminals from the prisons, and vagabonds of every description, whose seditious spirit was inflamed by a fanatic and licentious priest, named Astorga, under the favourite pretest of offended religion. Senor Carrel, the Governor, had taken re fuge at Mendoza with some of the respectable inhabitants, as soon as they found that the revolution had assumed such a shape that it was impossible for them to suppress it without assistance. Pre parations were ntaking at Mendoza to send a squadron of troops, to put an end at once to the evils which afflicted the city of San Juan. !he Government has transmitted the official communiestinna which it has received ou this event to the Congress, accompanied by the following note : " The Government had received accounts of the unhappy events in the province of San Juan, and waited with anxiety fur further information respecting the real character of them, when, in the night of the 29th, it received the communications annexed. The Government knows what the fundamental law procribes, and the powerful motives which directed it, after repeated and powerful experience. Notwithstanding thin, the circumstances ohne:twit in the convulsions at San Juan, make it the duty of the Government to submit so serious an affair to the consideration of the National Congress. . _ _ (Sighed) "JUAN GREGORIO DE LAS HERAS. "MANUEL JOSE GARCIA." The Congress had an extraordinary sitting on the Ist, to eon. eider of the affair, which was referred to a Special Committee, con. stating of Senores Gorriti, Lafridi, Gomez, Friss, and Vedova. This Committe.• has had some sittings, and we believe, that a firm and dignified resolution of the Congress will soon be pub lished. We trust that both the General Government, and those of the neighbouring provinces, will exert themselves to suppress, as soon as possible, a revolution so illegal as that whic'a has mani fested itself at San Juan. CHILI. The following is an extract of a privateletter from Santiago de Chile. dated August 10 • " The agents that have come out from the different English Mining Companies have put the whole country in motion. They are sending parties in all directions, to lay hold of and some of the most valuable have already bean secured. This introduction of money, and English skill and enterprise, into the country, will prove most important in its effects. The Governatent gives them every encouragement. `•TThe Coniiany fonfied here, who have undertaken to pay the interet on the English loan, for ten years, nut of the produce of the monopoly ut certain duties granted them by the Congress. hare been buying up bills here lately to remit to England for the dividends—so that John Bull will begin now to see the colour of our money. 31. Lgana, the father of our 3linister now in England, has been elected Deputy to Ctingresv for Santiago and two other pro vine2s ; but, of course, he can only sit for one. It shows, howeve r , the respect in which this gentleman is held in this country. The Congress is to meet early la September. " 'fhe Eclipse, which was coming here with English miners, from Cornwall, hat not been able to get round Cape Horn, and has put back to Buenos Ayres, where the party have landed, and are now coming across the Cordilleras." The Barbadoes Paper of the 23d September mates that " on Tuesday night last, between the hours of nine and ten, a smart shock of earthquake was sensibly felt in this island." We understand that, in consequence of the great delay incurred by the Mediterranean traders from the variable winds and calms prevalent in that sea, a Company is in contemplation, to establish a set of steam towing vessels, by which a regular communication will be kept up between Gibraltar, Alexandria, and the various intermediate ports. Several vessels, peculiarly fitted for this undertaking, are said to be in a state of forwardness; and the projectors an ticipate that, by the ensuing summer, they will have had sufficient opportunity of trying the experiment, to justify their laying a general outline of the plan before the public.

Captain Drewe, of the 9.;th Regiment, late R.A.L., arrived from the Western Coast of Africa, by the 5.. r,„ transport. The Surrey left Sierra Lon the timber, and the Gambia 10th of October, and had a p of thirty-eight days. Captain Drewe has hr0n.,:1.: spatches from Major-Gen. Turner, the Governor , :• 20th of September. The dry season hail set in, and ness bad nearly ceased among the troops. The great.i: number of those in hospital were in a state of conva4.. cence, and likely to do well. There hal been no nexp:, received at Sierra Leone from the Gold Coast since the w a of June: thelast accounts were favourable. The Governor, who is indefatigable in his daily exertions -for the welfare and happiness of the Colony, had the (lay before the Surrey, to the Bananas (a few small lands, situated about forty miles to the mitwayd o f Leone), with two small vessels, and flit , / men, of the Itov. al African Corps, for the purpose of arranging seine ditto ences that had existed between two strong parties, which had, in a great measure, interrupted the trade of the Colo- ny from that quarter, by stopping the pas , ses; and it was hoped his Excellency would be able to settle the businen, So that the gold, and other trade, wouhl have a free and uninterrupted intercourse. The workmen were about to commencrs at the new bar. racks; all the materials had arrived from England ; and it was expected that the whole magnificent pile of buildinc, consisting of superb officers' barracks, and twa distinct snl. tilers quarters, would be completed in the course of flie months; one of the soldiers' barracks had been finiihol previous to the rains, and covered 200 mcn most cow. fortably. _ _ The following is from the Hampshire 7'efegroph:— " Yesterday (Friday) arrived the Surrey transport, Lieutenant Thompson, agent, from Sierra Leone, whenc: she sailed on the 231 of September, with nine women RI fiftcen children, widows and orphans of deceased so!dim, in a most deplorable state of debility, from fever; of whic4 number, five women and seven children, es well as two sea. men of the Surrey, died on the passage. The remaining part of the crew being in a convalescent state, Capt. Bore, the Superintendent of Quarantine, put the ship under that restraint. We have derived by this ship the following ac count of the most recent occurrences and present state of the Colonies on the coast of Africa : his t S E ;:rr ee e ll y ien tr c a v t4or iaj t or , and the a 2 u 4 n t e h emb A ar i k ig ed ust i , n Turner "n the Banana and Plantain Islands, in consequence et two tribes. the Caulker!' and Cleveland'', being at war, antrhaving detained the trade canoes which pass to and from the 'allow' piacu on the Sherbro River to Sierra Leone, taking the captires as their slave,, and frequently selling them to slave modem— On the 27th August, the boats of this ship, with a small party of the Royal African Corps, under Lieutenant Thompon's enters, landed, with the Governor, and took possession of Plaintain in the name of the King of England. After retaining possession of it for some days, the King of the Island, named Caulker (a eclaiued man), who was educated in England, came over tram the mein land, and had an interview with General Turner. The result of this conference was, that In conjuncion with the other Kings and Chiefs, it was agreed that some liana land on die Island of York, should be ceded to England, provided his Exce llency would give them protection hereafter front tribes which at rations limes core down from the interior. The treaty being si . ;i the colours en Plantain Island were again hauled down, and the Governor returned in the ship to Sierra Leone. On the 9th Septoltvatches were re ceive d from the town of Bathurst, in the blaed of St. Mary's (River Gambia), stating that the whole detachmei is of 'lie Royal Alnesn Corps, in garrison there, amounting to one hundred and thirty-fine soldiers, with eight women and seventeen children, which were landed only in June, had ell died of reser, excepting thirteen soy diem, and these were in hospital. unfit for duty ; that the Come 'slander of Bathurst was fearful of being attacked by the Kiry( of Barra, from the opposite shore, in consequen:e of a tribute fe formerly receives! being stopped by General Turner. On the 2(en September the Surrey sailed with the detaciinient she had on boar% of about hundred men, seven women, and nine children, o replace those who had died at Bathurst. On her arrml there, on the second of October, was toned lying at anchor, the Swinger gun-brig, protecting the place. Her Commander, Poingdestre, and seven of the crew, had died of fever; also Ensign Staple:on, of the Royal African Corea. The slave trade is carried on in a greater degree than ever. A Portuguese schooner, of 'bout 90 tuns, had been scat in by the Esk. This email vessel had on board men, women, and children, in all amounting to two hundred and eighty-four. The heart-sickening misery discovered, front the crowded and sickly stale of the slaves, exceeded any description that could be given of it. When the Surrey left the Sherbro Rain, there were no less than seven slave vessels waiting for their ewes No accounts had been received front the Gold Coast since July. The state of those Colonies was not known. From various road from the Mandingoe tribes, it is expected the Ashantem will tot Cape Coast another visit. The trade at Poriindeck had radat failed lately, in consequence of the Foulah tribes baying steppe: the coast people from bringing down their gums. The tn.. a and wax trade at the Gambia is much improved of lie, n d from its being a free port, a, well as Sierra Leone tor r."+a articles, corn, hors2s, sheep, and poultry, it is not doubted bat the trade, in the following year, will be much increased.
