Rattan's, anxious to be acquainted with the occurrences of the day, advanced with the army, and arrived at three o'clock. He wended rt seeing this Hag flying, yet much annoyed at finding the I could nut afford him any certain intelligence respecting .In , liia” Soul. Aby 2.—. At the request of Radom& I accompanied the Generals Railanctac and Kamain to the port, where we found Radama's flag iltirg; and having assembled the principal iohabitants. the Gene. my explained the King's Mien ions to use his utmost efforts for the pr inotten of the interests of all engaged in lawful commerce and iodus•riots occupations, both of which Radiuna desired the resi dents should know were objects of his primary consideration ; at i!ie sante time lie desired that it should be explained, that feeling :tanielfentitled to have his laws implicitly obeyed, it was his desire tbat any persons, not natives of the country, and not inclined to conform to his edict., should avail du:weaves (previously to com mitting any act to incur his displeasure) of the earliest occasion to remove Itoni his shores, and, by direction of the King, the Gene r.ls in particular alluded to every person engaged in the slave traffic. . . _ On the conclusion of the General's speech, the natives and real dents 8 , houLett —•• We are Gratis, we are Radaulas !" and the c.remony or swearing allegiance was gone through by the Chiefs ald principal persons of the different tribes; on which the Ge corals cutsurrnl the assembly, that every person who obeyed 1ted.11112 . • laws should be entitled so his protection and en- CJar She King's orders to the Generals being thus fulfilled, they were abut to withdraw, w lien some badly-clothed Moors (none of wllOll3 I could have expected possessed the value or property of • bat), roared out that they had vessels at sea for the introduction or people. and hoped that the newly-published law would not be applicable to them. Rainanc , ac said, that slave-dealing in any way ass against the established laws of Radama, and desiring that all the Wu:thaws should be assembled in the afternoon to meet the King, we left the town, and the Generals acquainted the King w:d. the favoura ble reception which they had met with. At three o'clock the troops were drawn up in a favourable isitua for, near the town, and about IMOO of the inhabitants waited on the Hallam' addressed the assembly, detailing the circuits stances widen kd to his presence at Majunga, and he repeated his assurar.ces already published, that all who obeyed his commands shoat be entitled to his special protection. lie tad them, that Lis best endeavours should be exerted fur the promotion of lawful coornr.rce ; and that in particular any deviation from his laws re lative to the Slave Trade would subject the offenders to the extre mity of punishment. He invited every class to have confidence in him, to apply themselves to industry, and to encourage fair traders o. every :union to visit his shores. Ou die conclusion of the King's harangue, the assembly loudly roared out their thanks, and wished lung life to Ratlania, on which , the same persons who had spoken to Ramanetac in the morning attemptui to renew the quanion, when Radama said, " I come not :.tic to discuss with you ; obey my laws, go to your homes, Inave only a few persons to condues me through the town, which I am i limos to see." Beatles three American twigs, there was one from Suet in harbour, and twenty-two Arab dims. The Americans tatroduce arms, ammunition, iron, glass, anti earthenware, some soft gouda, furniture, and toys, and they always bring dollars. They dispose of a good part of tliete cargoes to the Arabs, who, I und.rstatatl, usually leave the bay about the middle of August, on netting toyages to the coast of Africa, though there arc suture dux( that cross the 31olarubique channel at all seasons of the year. The Ameticans get elephants' teeth from the Arabs (they are DOW two dollars per lb.) and they salt and dry beef and hide*, rod wimetirnes a little ebony and sandal wood. Toe town of alajtitign is most unwholesomely dirty. There are not etiv stret.ta ; the lanes are very crooked and narrow ; the walls age chiefly mtale of mud, or mud and stooes, and the covering yr?, high. of bonbon taut palm leaves. There are a few houses or lime. or coral, nod stone with argamass, or fiat roofs on the plan of the Indisn bungalows. The extent of the town is possibly about half that oi P.trt lends, at Mauritius, and tl.e population about two-thirds, or Udell. There a.re three large chapels or mosques, sod sevens! schools. July 3.-I.nersing that Radama had made some inquiries rela tive to the number of small craft at alajunga, and the usual way ia 'Web bee vessels were occupied, I took an catty occasion to remnient to him the evils that would ensue, were he in any way to countenance the lawless slave traders ; and I brought to his notice that the pnple of Majunga were well acquainted by Commodore rouse, in December last, that his laws prohibited the Slave Trade, and that he had repeated these laws himself to the Ambat . sarlora rent to Oval), by Antlrian Soul, in April last, so early a pet toil is the year, that there is no likelihood that any boats had then left the ro a d; of alajunga on such speculations; on which account those row so engaged could not merit any indolgeace. Rattania said that he always bore in mind the counsel that he had received from the Bridals. to prevent the depopulation of his country, and to prevent the natives or it from becoming slaves in a strange bind; and it was his fixed tictrnwination ta pnraue the Pleasures which he had adopted fur that purpose, with such ex actitude as would preclude his being subjected to any, reproach. lie shit hat he also bore in mind, that modes of increasing Cie po pulation had been suggested to him by an innovation or extinction ancient rights and long standing customs, which he did not cowlicks , it wife to invade, whilst lie is entirely dependent for re m 'acrei on those w h o enjoy them. lie alluded to the custom of ilidolieriting and adopting chibireo, and to that of bigamy. " But introducing people cannot tend tudepophittion," said he ; " and I !live been told that the Ero;lisli resort even to force of anus attttinat (niter nations to supply their own colony Mauritius. I won't take aay by twee, but is it incaireet to purchase those lnaught to my shores ?" I told him that the English natiiin was the first that took men. eirrei to put a stop to the Glare Trait!, and were still unwearied in exertions to accompliali an object in which i t i s now j oine d by roost of the civilized Power*: and the traffic is held in general de testation, yet no force of arms is resorted to. " Then," said he, •• what do you c di armed ships capturing thole of other nations, and instead of liberating the slaves, whom Iva profess to be so much concerned thr, taking them to your colo n)'. when they are put to labour with other slates ?" I answered, that however desirous Englishmen were to put an end to slavery, it must he considered that immediately relanditig 0 , 7 class of persons usually found the prey of slave.draters would; hum their ignontrice and tioprutected state. most likely be subject. ::og them to ba again led into a similar state; add it is generally acknowledged that allowing them to pasts a period in the colony would enable them to receive such instructiun as would secure their own freedom on their return to their native land, enable them to be instrumental to the civilization of their compatriots, and tend to promote the general abolition of slavery. Radama said that he had heard much of the different clarses of slaves at the Mauritius, and was not unacquainted with the former state and prospects of many of both classes, obvert and apprentices ; and he said he was aware that the present state of many is prefer able to what it might have been in their own sanity ; yet," said be, "they are all slaves, both those you have by capture, and dam formerly fairly purchasers ; however, I now see that it is the dark, of the British Government that there should not be any ex potation or importation of slaves, but that every man should mid , vete his native soil, oe voluntarily seek a residence in another coun try, and I can easily put a stop to importation as I hare done to exportation : a single seizure will edict that object." I told biro that he had given mimic warning to authorize his doing so, and that it would be derogatory to his character to allow • lawless band of traders of other countries to make his ports de- Pots fur their illicit traffic, and I brought to his recollection, quit the !mum of Muscat had prohibited the Slave Trade under a very Were penalty. Madams said, that the Imaun of Muscat made laws, and so did the English and French, and yet he must observe, that he was aware the Arabs were still inclined to sell, and persons under the flags of other nations, appeared equally anxious to pur chase, but it should be his care to observe with truth the covenant that he had entered into; on which he retired to meet his officers. July 9.—As nightclosed in, the King returned to the camp ; went to Abdallah's house, where I found Andrian Soul's minis ters my arrival, and I led them to the presence of the King, who had continued the troops under arms to receive them. After the customary salutations, Radama desired that they should ex plain the objects of their visit, and one after the other each declared that they were charged to assure Radama of the allegiance of An , drian Soul; to express the Chieftain's regret at his error in not re ceiving his King at the capital of the district, and his desire now to claim protection. Radama entered now into a detail of the occurrences which had caused him to lead an army into Boyana, and dwelt on the injuries that himself and subject s had sustained by the„Chieftain of Boyana affording an asylum to deserters from his country, and encouraging them to plunder his He also alluded to the tribute formerly exacted hem Ovah by the Chieftains of Bovana. and some Iwo threats of ineadlag his territories ; •• however." said he, " we must entioavour that past occurrences may prove useful lessons for our future guidance: it is my resolution to be King of 3ladagas car, sad not to permit that there should be a division of authority in this island. If what you have now related in the presence of this Assembly, which is composed of people of every part of the country, and a nungst which are many strangers, be true, go you with my officers, am, take the oath of ullegiance to me in the name of your Chier and of yourselves, and return to receive my further com mand's." On the return of Andrian Soul's ministers, Radama promised them his protection so far as related to themselves, and told them it was necessary that he should send a person in his confidence to ascertain that they would accurately detail what had passed to Andrian Soul, anti have assurances Root the chief of his being satis fied to observe the covenants entered into on his lithalf, and in the presence of the ministers. Radium' requested me to accompany them to Andrian Soul, on which they were desired to withdraw, and be ready to proceed u soon as the tide would serve in the morning. Jul. 10.-I embarked with Andrian Soul'. ministers, three of the King's officers, and a younger brother of Abdallab Batlrue. July 12 —Thee. at 3 A.M. 60. Went nut at three o'clock in the morning, and crossing • river, we arrived near sonic fires on the bank at four, and found Ranomarie ready to conduct us to • little village named Aukebaka, where the Chieftain, surrounded by about for y persons (armed), at dawn of day. received me. 1 requested his ministers to relate Kadanta's cobar to h:m, which they did with accuracy, and I asked him if it suet with his approbation. He said he was perfectly satisfied with what his ministers had dose, and he promised imPlicit obedience to the laws of Racism& I then desired Kadaina's officers to assure him of the King's protection and support. July 17.—At an early hour I received a letter from Radama, de. siring I would try to ascertain if Andrian Soul would dine with hint on his arrival at the camp at 31arruvoes. July 20.—1 waited on Andrian Soul, and acquainted him that Radama would give him an audience ; and the chief forowers being in attendance, we approached the parade, where he was much awed and amazed on seeing the troops form three sides of a square, on each side of which was a regiinent in open column. As we entered the agnate, the regiments, in open c.durnn,fired by companies, which increased his agitation, and he was but partly composed on taking a seat after the salutation, which he got through very awkwardly. The manassin (tribute in token of fealty) being presented, one of Mama', Generals opened the sober by stating briefly the circum stances which led to the army of Ovah being marched into the district. Andrian Soul said be had accepted Radama's flag from Comma dore Nourse ; he acknowledged allegiance to Radattia, and would not change. Rattan's then addressed the Assembly, and said it would be his care to afford equal protection, and administer justice equally to all his subjects; he had fully detailed his sentimeuts to the Ambassa dors of Andrian Soul, at Majunga ; he was aware that what was then detailed had been explicitly narrated to the Chieftain . • he ex pected all his subjects to obey his commands with exactitude. and it should be the constant object of his attention to encourage them, and promote that interests and prosperity in every respect; and, turning to the soldiers, he said, " Will we not, Antbanyaundras?" to which a loud " yes" was teturned, and the cobar concluded. July 22.—At noun I received a letter from Commodore Nourse, intimating his arrival at Illajunga; and Abdallth being ready to start for that place ' I availed myself of a passage in his boat. I conversed with him as if I were not against slave dealing; and speaking of some people engaged in that traffic, anal their late pro ceedings, as if well acquainted with such concerns, he was induced to be very free. He said that he had embarked a good deal of ca pital in the exportation, bnt he did not think the exportation trade very favourable, as he knew but few had made money in it. He gets a stock of Indian merchandise annually from Surat. Several slave dealers owe money to Abr.:Allah, but he does not ex pect to be paid. Slaves may be purchased at front twenty to thirty dollars each ; and as the American traders require large supplies of cattle, he says the importation trade will still be good, as Mozam bique' are in demand in the interior, and bring from forty to fifty head of cattle, though Ovah slaves are nut worth more than from eight to ten bullocks in their own country. I asked if Radama had not given any orders about the importa tion trade. He replied, " No;" but the orders against exportation were repeated previous to his departure from Majunga, and he hail laid a duty of five per cent. on the exports, and two per cent, on all importation commerce; and, of course, said Abdallah, slaves are includrd, as he knew that to be our principal commerce. I asked him what number did he consider as the annual impor. tation of slaves. Ile said, it varied much. Some years back it was about three thousand ; linterly, it was sometimes over, sometimes under two thousand, many of which were exported, and many sold in exchange for cattle. July '2s.—Commodore Nourse, reverting to the success of all Ra dama's undertakings, recommended him to contipae the system which he had pursued, and which had led to such happy results; and he particularly advised Radama to give due consideration to every circumstance cannected with the advancement of commerce, as be had already established his power so firmly by hit conquests and due administration of laws, as well as by the decided superio. rity which a powerful disciplined army gave him, that he is now well entitlad to consider and report himself sole master of the island, in which character he would certainly be authorized to invite peo. plc of every nation to visit his country on lawful commercial pur suits. replied, that in the early part of his life he was in a state of darkness; his forefathers, whom it was his duty to look up to with respect. were entirely unacquainted with the proceedings of the world, and consequently were incapable of giving such instruc tion as could advance hint ; he had, however, by application and perseverance, got into a path by which, lie was enabled to advance; the success attending his endeavours was such as sati.fied him that lie was correct in attributing all lie knew to the lessons he had re ceived from the Britian nation and Government ; he was confirmed in the propriety of his present plans, and he would pursue them writ increased ardour. July 26.—Radama got into the Commodore's barge at noon. and on his arrival on board was saluted with twenty-one guns. Charts, drawings, and politics were the principal subjects of conversation until dinner hour, when the band attracted his attention, anti he was highly delighted on the Commodore proposing to take a few of his young musicians on board, to receive sonic lessons from the music-tnaater. The Commodore again reverted to the necessity that Radama should encourage lawful commercial pursuits to replace the illicit traffic which is now held in almost general detestation, and as a proof that it was the decided wish of the English Government to support Itadaina in his laudable undertakings, he was pleased to say that he would take a few Madagascar boys on board the squadron that he commanded, and give them some instruction in the duty of mariners, as people of that description would be of the utmost use in advancing what Hatlania had in view for the lion of his subjects, and the boys on their return would afford their King much inflormaion relative to the countries they might visit, and aid him in forwarding commercial pursuits. This favour was accepted with evident pleasure, and Itaidanta was very desirous to show that he entertained a due sense of it. July 27. —During the day there were several applications made to Badyna for the recovery (Wilda*, and after a little investigation he found that usurious transactions, particularly in the advancing of money for the purchase of slaves, were carried on to a great ex tent at Majunga, and he ultimately ordered, that all sums of money ! I or merchandise taken up on such account should be refunded with out any interest whatever. I brought to his notice what Abdallah had told me relative to the importation trade ; he said he would punish the Moor if he detected him circulating false reports. and to prevect any misunderstanding on the %abject, he directed that the inhabitants should be assembled, mid his commands &gabe re. peated to them, that it should be fully explained t hat he would not permit either t he importation or exportation of slaves. August 2.—ltailania sent for me at an ear.y hour, and requested that I would acco npany his officers to Andrian Soul and Itatarats. fur the purpose of making known most publicly his immediate de cision. The orders that he gave were, that he now considered Bombetok on the saute footing as Oven, where every person contri buted for the use of the government a c e r t a in p ortion ofthe produce of the Roil, and of all their profits on commercial speculations, and g t a t e e n T h a l k e s h o i t i o s a a r f i t t o t r y , , , t w b h a e t re arm the y p s eo vlii a c e h w is ere n a o l aroo fi" O ar rg3 d n i l D Led filli :% um ample protection its all lawful pataaita, and can= tranquil. THE BRITISH PRESS lily in the country.; he would, therefore, expect the compliance of the people of Myatt* with his published laws, and that they should, as is customary in °rah, pay into his treasury a tenth part of the productions of the earth and of their gains on mercantile coneerns ; he desired that their particular attention should be called to his laws relative to slave dealing, and that it should be clearly under stood that the importer would be considered equally criminal as the earner, and the delinquent in either case, being a person owing allegiance to him, would be subject to a capital punishment ; at same time it was his wish that all Nile traders and huabandmen should be encouraged to visit and settle in his country ; he directed that it should be made known that every species of marauding or kidnapping were capital offences, and also that every permit de tceted guilty of theft would be liable to forfeit either life or liberty. Ye, according to the circumstances of the ease, also commanded that it .hoold be published that he hail decided on preventing his subjects from resorting to the use of nosti unis, charms, or unknown ntedieinfw, which are irequently, to their gnat detriment, imposed on them by designing people at high prices, and which have in many instances oecasicaesl much disturbance and bloodshed, by inducing the credulous, who trust in them, to dkolmy the laws, and even to rise in arms against the lawful authorities. " You will then," said xatlama, " assure the people of lloyana that I view them all as my children, and that, equally with °rah, it shall be my constant study to advance and promote their imitallP." August :I.—Commodore Nourse having proposed a little altera tion in the wording of the document, relative to the port regulations at 11Iajunga, it was agreed to by Italania, and signed in the annexed form. " By Radanta, King of 31adagaecar, &c. &c. &e. " Whereas. having recently possessed myself of the town of Majunga, and the bay anti harbour of Bomb tnk, and it appear. ing that various exorbitant and undefined MIDIS have heretofore been extorted from British vessels, as well as others visiting this harbour, for the purpose of trade or refreshment, and being desirous of manifesting on all occasions my high consideration for the Bri tish nation, and my friendship for Commodore Joseph tionrie, C.B. commanding his Britannic :11ajesty's ships and vessels in these seas ; " It is hereby ordered, That all British vessels visiting the said ports and harbours, for the purpose of and engaging in lawful trade, shall have free liberty to do so without let or Inpdranee of any kind, on payment of hi dollars anchorage money, and of 5 per cent. duty on all articles, the produce of Aladagteacur, exported fur the purpose of such trade and traffic. The said duty to be levied in the most equitable and convenient manner, and no other duty or fees of any kind whatsoever to be imposed. That with a view to encourage the residence of British subjects in my dominions, for the better civilization of my people, and the introduction of various arts 111141 sciences, I hereby assure them of 1 my special protection, and that they shall have free liberty to dwell 1 therein, to build ships, and vessels, and houses, and cultist:ate lands, to carry on lawful trade and traffie, to conic and to go at their own will and pleasure, without let or hindrance of any kind, and with out payment of any duty or tax than before mentioned. (Signed) 4 ` RADAMA." August 10—In consequence of an intimation from one of Re damies officers, purporting that some slaves had been landed near filajunga, I deemed it my duty to set out tbr that place and en deavour to ascertain the truth. Immediately on my landing, Ra maretac informed me that a brig, under French colours had sailed the evening before, after being three dap% in harbour ; he had no doubt her purpose had been that of obtaining sieves, but being de feated in that object, she bad taken in a little suet. The brig is named the lilitotidelie, and the Captain Le Brec, an intimate ac quaintance rat Abdallah, with whom he spent a day in private. Without being asked, Ramanetuc also told me, that lb aladagaS. car slaves, all of whom had been purchased on the coast of tlaina. boy, had been landed from a doe at 3lajunga. There appeared to him something incorrect in the circumstance; yet, he had not any orders to prevent Radama's subjects being removed by water from one part of the coast to another. Yet, at my suggestion, he ordered that such removals should only be made in boats belong ing to the natives, a class entirely unfit to go to sea. I found that degree of good faith to exist, which must effectually prevent any infraction of the treaty; and Ratrianetac's conduct was so ingenuous that no doubt of his sincerity remained on my mind. Ile talked on every movement connected with the plans of the slave dealers, and declared that now Radama had placed several officers on the coast to prevent the traffic, it would occasion him the 1 1 utmost regret were the wily traders to effect by fraud what lie was 1 inclined to use his utmost efforts to prevent. Abdallah had been tampering with Ramanetae, and had offered him three thousand dollars to be permitted to report himself Ka dama's agent; but his plans were all defeated' on Ranianerac re marking that he poaseasied but little worldly wiealth, yet the con fidence he enjoyed with ilia saversiga made him rich indeed; and DO money would induce him to forfeit it. . . August 26.—Thermometer at daylight, 57.; noon, 88. Nooa ex posed, 104 August 27.—The invitation to attend the cobar was an generslly accepted, that between tout or five thousand persons wee assem bled for that purpose ; and the heads of tribes were forward in ex. pressing satisfaction at being taken under the protection of Rada ma, whom they promised to obey and servo with fidelity. Radama descanted on the evils of anarchy and warfare, and the benefits that must arise from good government and peace. tie de clared that it ahould be his care to watch over the interests of his subjects, and guard theta equally trout internal dissension or fo reign oppresenrs. tie-alieectad their attention to commerce, hue. bandry, and such manufactures as they are acquainted with ; and he concluded by stating that every improvement that was made should be noticed by marks of his favour, and he would always ex. pect atr'ct obedience to his laws, fur the due administration of which he would station competent oilicers amongst them. August 29.—There being a great extent of country lying between the river Barisibooka and the sea, and between the northern confine of Boyana and the liver !Havre or Alausiatre, which is in nearly the same latitude as the capital of Ovah ; and this great extent never having been visited by Rllllllllell officers, and some parts of it being inhabited by petty tribes that have not yet placed them selves under Radsuna's protection, he deemed it expedient that he should obtain a kno Amigo of the country and the people: and he also wished to visit in particular the part inhabited by the Illanaind, as he has not yet received any intimation of their having complied with his commands to proceed towards Ovah ; and 'Wants, leaning that the river, in consequence of its being a very dry season, is fordable at a place called Alanatnque, and that the route to Ovah would thereby be much shortened. he needed on sending off all the sick, and proceeding with the old soldiers only. The orders for departure were but tardily obeyed, and it was late in the day when the cant p was homed on the banks of a atreatn called Kiainasome, about eight miles from I)ouane. The coun try that we passed over is thinly wooded, the Vuo-voontak tree pre. trailing, with a few tamarinds. Sept. 11.—The Ovals say that th • :Raman(' can live on beans and roots when on marauding excursions. It appears to me, that the imputation of the crimes that they are charged with orig inates from their having been born in slavery, and that they are turulent to obtain their liberty. lam told also that they are governid by sorcerers, who exact their best cattle, and the best productions of their fields. Sept. 14.—The people who hail been sent out to warn the 3lainand to attend to die cobar, returned with a few of them and accompanied by six petty chieftains, of a class called Jeekrick , , and about 400 of that people. The chieftains of Jeekrick expressed much satisfaction at having ail opportunity of placing themselves under the protection of flailania, and they promised obedience to his laws, in testimony of which they stated their readiness to con. tribute a tenth part of their stock to die service of the army, as they had heard the people of Bovine hail done. Radcma assured them that their courteous offer was duly appreciated by him, and that their interests should claim his attention; he told them that an officer, high in his esteem, was placed in command of that part of the country lying to the westward of the river Baytisibooka, and that in event of any misunderstanding occurring a mongst them, they should refer the subject to him ; and as the armed force under liarnaresikitis's command was sufficient to prottet them, they would no longer have occasion to retain arms, and would of course be ex. pected to give them up, at a fair valuation, for the service of the military. The King at the same time assured them that they should enjoy equal privileges with all the rest of his subjects ; and he recommended their attention to industry. The assembly ap. peered to be very well pleased, and the chiefs proposed that Ra. lama's officer should accompany them to receive the contributions and taxes, saying that all the arms they possessed were then pre sent, and ut the h.ing'a service. Sept. 13.—Radama being made acquainted that some few people reside near the coast, at Matomba, directed some of the Jeekrick to go forward and publish that he would hold a eubar at Ambouhi. rouse, on die full of die next moon, and it being my wish to visit the coast, and particularly such places as small craft or boats can enter to trade with the natives, I decided on following the river to the sea, and proceeding by the coast to klatomba, if the journey could be accomplished in the fixed period. Sept. 16.—Esainho returned from the Kink's camp at sun.aet, and I was informed that he was immediately engaged in prayer. re turning thanks to Radamit's clemency, and exulting that none of his family or followers were removed from their ancient rights by die expedition. Oct. 23.—We passed within view of five villages which have been lately (within two years) built by Medim, and where 500 soldiers are stationed, and have begun to form extensive rice fields. There is not any appearance that this part of the country has been pre. vloualy inhabited. On the King's arrival at the camp ground, lie was received by upwards of 2,000 of the inhabitants of Vulanlafont and Verein. stove, laden with presents of provisions, amongst which were hundreds of geese, ducks, fowls, and sheep. Oct. 26.—Thermometer at noon 117, exposed 94. The district of Vereinzounga is mountainous; it was formerly divided into many small chieftainships; perhaps a fourth of the population can now trace their descent from nobility. and as it was in past days ISO is it now there considered that a man of noble descent would dis. honour his rank were he to labour. or even resort to any industrious pursuit as an aninsement. This old custom being observed by these people more rh.'' than it is in any other part of the country, has , to draw more men as recruits in proportion to , to serve as whitens num that district, than he has any esker ; as, though the nobles will not handle the • the beltrilliga a musket has always been considered ho. ..eitmble s ond the title of warriors was respected by their forefathers when the industrious husbandman could not presume to sit on a noble's twat. Radaina remarked that this policy will tend to WI his ranks at present , and ultimately induce those titled poor to ro. sort to that industry which will atford them ease. Oct. 27.—Ther. at daylight, ; at noon, 89. As we advanced, the country was found to bear an appearance of plenty, and what is termed comfort. by the natives of (hall. The dwellings are frail, yet the fine rice fields and garden,' of manioc, sweet potatoes, plantains and tattoo near them, and the Foci; of shetp, pigs, and poultry, that share the family bed, re- I move every apprehension of want. The reviving music of the much COW 3 bellowing for their calves, which are also the nightly inmates of the,maosion, the barking of a number of cur dogs to whom the odour of flesh is unktutwo, proclaim the wasessot both great and rich ; terms that were nal long since applied in this coun try to the owneyof ever: a single dollar, and the individual who could show one was otter. congratulated on the extent of his wealth. The country is vef.y hilly and finely watered. We crossed four small etre:rm.:, and having travelled about ten miles, eneamped,a'r a place called IS tymas.,n-androna, near to which I had the pleasuge to ye about two Tootle of wheat, al equal quantity of pats and bar ley, the cultivation of which I had .ntroduced, and which promitied a fair crop. Nov. 2.—The trains having astcmbled at an early hour, Radama proceeded to the capital, and wai received at the usual place of as aembly by his mother and family, his ministerr, arid a great am ber of people. On the conclusion of the salutations of his family, the old chief tains commenced their usual loyal speeches ' and were advancing to offer tribute, when 'Warns told them that he would hold .a public cobar on Sunday rack, and he dismissed the assembly. As customary on entering the court-yard, he needed to the tombs of his ancestors, and returned thanks to the Almighty fur his safe return, and he retired to his palace in a very feeble state. ALLIANCE GRANITE AND CHINA CLAY wore rigidly oetieleoei Redeem the perealatioe, revived from epode, the nettra►le, COMPA 21'Y. Yesterday a Meeting of the Shareholders of the aboye (knrieny was held at Batieet's Ctiffee house, Corning, pursuant to advertii/e -ment ; Mr. W. Ceeit x in the Chair. The CHAIRMAN Sapreesed his regret that the Meeting was not more fully attended, a circumstance which he attributed ro the ad vertisement having been only inserted in the Times that day. Pre viously to entering on business. he begged to make one or two re marks on the British Iron Company. He had received lettere re. 'meeting the ant, rtinn Mr. Shears had made at the Meeting in the City of London Tavern, that he (Mr. C.) was rejected as a proprie tor. on account of his having mud threats. That assertion was most unfounded. Ile (Mr. C ) had sent hie shares into the of is be registered in his name, anti the DireCtoli refused to pettnit that form to take place. Ile inquired the cause, and solit heel an inter view with the Board, who refused to see him. He then sent in a written request. for a specitic reason, and assuring the Mani, that unless they allowed the transfer, he would call a Meeting himself. If he had been adieitted. he would have thrown such a light upon the affairs of the Company, from documentary eridenee, as would have excited the very strongest public indignation, and would have reflected very serictisly upon Mr. Shears. The public should he furnished with the detail, at some future pe riod, of this most shameful bubble. (Hear, hear.) Ile might, in some instances, not have been correct to the letter in his statements, but his charges were always borne out. (Cheers.) At a former Meet ing. the Shareholders were induced to believe that they could obtain their property in an amicable manner, and it was thin the duty of the Shareholders to devise some other means to bring the Directors to justice. The etch; or the concoction of this Company were, that a Mr. Sinclair purchased a small portion of gee Mid from a Mr. Bailey, for which he paid lA. and. no doubt, Mr. Sinclair, at the time, hed the intention of forming a Joint Stock Company , of it. A Mr. Hodgson immediately after purchased the same from Mr. Sinclair for Mot., and they, with other gentlemen, formed a Jojtit S+oek Company of it, Had Sad it to the Sharehodere for 2,111ef. This plan was precisely that adopted in the Cornwall and Devon Mining Company, on a smaller seele. When the parties were sum moned before the Lord Mayor, his Lerdseip entertainea not a doubt that the affair was one of a very suspicious nature, When Mr. Hodgson, in exculpation of himself, stated that every thing was false, the Lord Mayor desired him to desist, as the reverse of his assertion was sworn to. The Alb:tree Granite China and Clay Company grew out of another, the Alliance Mining Company.— The latter having faded, the projectors started the former. Mr. Se uR a deterred that the Alliance M ining Company was in • trodu el into the share market for the express Palmate of having a "in it. (A laugh.) And as the Directors had not money to work the shares in the market, they obtained the acceptance of' a Captain .inset for fintl. which they endorsed to Williams, the bankers; but owing to some irregularity en the p art , of the G om bankers, the bill was tot presented when it become d ue, conse querly the endorsees were not liable, a , d the Captain had to pay the bill. The 600!. was apalied td raise the shares to a premium in the market; but in consequence of Daniel Whittle Ilarvey having sold 11111 shares when they were at a high premium, which shares the Directors were saddled with, the project failed. (A laugh.) The C,IAIR SIAN then stated that Mr. Lane had called upon him, and stated that at a meeting at Mr. Florence's, the Saiel or (Mr. Anstice) flnd:ng that the Sl;des had not been 'jelled by any of the o:her patties, and no report having been made to form a judgment of their value, refused to sanction the payment of any money for the purchase. Mr. Lane further informed him that a deputation was then formed, and :write of them went down to in j !meet the property, but were so disappointed at the worthlems eppear. ante of the spot pointed out to them, that they actually engaged another property. So that it was not the original property that I was purchased, and htiw they managed he could not tell. Mr. I Clark then stated the plan had succeeded at the time, for the de posit money was paid into:the bankers', and drawn out without the consent of the Secretary, end the Dimwit refused to account fur it. He was informed that they were afraid to explain the affairs for fear the disclosure might endanger their personal safety. He con j eluded by suggesting the propriety of appointing a Committee to ! adopt such proceedings as might be deemed adviseable. A SHAREHOLISER required to know the Directors' names. Mr. Seuax then read from the prospectus the following names as Directors:—John Bleaden, Req., 47. Lothbury; Wm. Hodg son, Esq., Stoke Newington; Robert Hone Esq., Brixton Hill; Thomas (I. Norcott, Esq., Pentonville ; Joh n Robert., Esq.' 48 Lothbury ; and Richard Walter, Esq., victualler, and J. 8: Bor rodaile, Esq.. auditors. Mr. CLARK said, that about the time bubbles were in fashion, those gentlemen introduced so many schemes to the public from their ()tikes in Lothbury, that they were termed the " Lothbury Gang." Ile begged that Mr. Vigour, would give any information he was in possession of to the Shareholders. Mr. VIGOU Its said, that all he had to say was, that he had for tunately got back his money through Mr. Fenton, and had no doubt but that, were the Shareholders to adopt the same course, they would get back theirs, as front the wonling of the receipt given by the bankers, they made themselves liable. He took Counsel's opinion upon the point, which was that the bankers were liable. They had no right to pay away the money, which was solely paid in upon their respectability; and as men of business they ought to have rc.pectable names before they opened an ac count ; the bankers were looked upon in this case as trustees tor the public. When his Solicitor applied for the money, it was paid before two o'clock the following day. Mr. SCURR—The money was paid by the Directors, who in structed their broker to pay Mr. Vigours, as they were afraid of him, he being in possession of the secrets end tricks of the Directors Mr. Viciou es said he was solicitous to become a Director, and. attended a meeting at Mr. Florence's, the solicitor, where the Minutes of a Meeting were read, and he was required to authorize the sum of 2,1001. to be drawn from the bankers, which sum had been taken out four days before. (Cries of " Shame, shame." and laughter.) Mr. Florence said he knew nothing about it, and that it was done without his consent; and he (Mr. V.) found the business so infamous, that he left the room with disgust. Mr. Hodgson, who purchased the property from Sinclair, declined to be a Director in the first instance until lie Fold the property, then he became a Director ; in consequence of what he said, Mr. Lune declined to have any thing to do with the Company. Mr. CLARK said that Mr. Bleaden stated bt fore the Lord Mayor that Hodgson was not a Director, but Everett's books would prove the assertion incorrect. Mr. Seltaß said. that the letter which was addressed to the bankers, authorizing them to pay the money in their hands on ac count of the Company, was signed by Mr. Hodgson, and whose signature was honoured when signed to the checks. Mr. CLARK, in alluding to Mr. Wilke, observed, that that gentleman had addressed a letter to the newspapers, denouncing the press, and stating what terrible things he intended to do. The Times newspaper acted, however, upon Mr. Wilkes own plan. It , rejected his letter it not paid for, not being a cheap newspaper. . The existence of this Company was a strong instance of the credu lity of the public. The Directors played into each other'. hands, without ever dreaming of any thing but the pocketing of thousands. Mr. Bleaden (not the respectable proprietor of the London Tavern) when he attended before the Lard Mayor, declared that Mr. Hodgson was not at all a Director, but, upon the examination of the bankers' books, it was shown that he was one. The humbug was as complete as far as it went, viz. to the extent of a few thuu , sands, as , any lie had known. The Deed of Settlement h 4 been , signed by no more than eight persons, and seals were put and pre pared for 225 other signatures, A prosecution was, in his opinion, the only remedy—the only chance of restitution. Mr. &URA said, lie apprehended that was the fact. He would n mach rather have the money be had paid as deposits, than go to the , I Old Bailey for satisfaction. This seamed to be the general feeling of the roo - n. A SIIASEHOLDRII—Who, in the none of Gad, was it that con cocted this imiabag P Another SHAREHOLDER—Why, Hodgson, GI be sure; every body knows that. He induced me to take twenty Shares in the Goonearl Mining Company, which he said was the (Meet specula tion in the explored world. A Third SHAREHOLDER—Where are they ? Second SHAREHOLDER —1 have them at home, but I can tun for them, If you want to purchase. (A laugh.) It was ultimately resolved that a Committee shred(' hr appoint ed, to determine upon the mode of proceeding, civil or trimmer, to be adopted for the recovery of the purchase-money, and to further he ends of justice. The WwaeFlELD3.—Tb•feet is not generally known, that Mrs. Priscilla Withhold, of Ipswich, the authoress of some highly-talented and useful works, is grandmother of Edward Gibbon Wakefield, who is causing so much noise in the newspaper world ; and that some members of the family were educated at the Grammar School, in this town. Notwithstanding the assertions of the Repregenfit live that E. G. Wakefield is a man of no talent, there is every appearance of it, if we may judge of the ability that seems prevalent in the family ; and the talented defence that made its appeatance in the John Bell strictly corrobo rates such an impression.

INSOLVENT DEBTORS' COURT; WErner Mier. St PT. 13. Mr. Commissioner LAW did not, take his seat until atter eleven o'clock, having Seen engaged in his private room ' with the view of the promulgation of some new rules and orders, relative to the practice of this Cohn, referring principally to the country attorneys. Robert Elphin Bligh, Esq. of Berkelev.rquare, described in his petition as a Captain on Ulf-pay in the Wad regiment of foot, war brought up for hearing. Mr. Poxioca appeared on behalf of the executors of a potion named Taylor. The Cocal wished to know whether the Learned Goldman was remitted On behilf of Earl Darnley; as that Nobleman at pear. ed to have entered an oppOsltion ? Mr. Poci.ooX rep;:ed that the Noble Lord had been served with a notice, and the petitioner had placed his name in the schedule : nevertheless, he did not appear to raise any , objection to Captain Bligh's discharge. The debt to which he (Mr. Pollock) alluded was No. 24 lti the schedule, where his noble client (Earl Darnley I was stated to be a claimant for GOW., and something was said about costs. The fact *as, that the suppotted liability arose out of pro. ceedinmi in one of the tuperlor Courts, whence a warrant issued against the insolvent by the fiat of the Lord Chief Justice for bins to keep the peace towards Lord Darnle_y, and thereupon recogni.. zanccs were entered into. AU that the Learned Counsel had to say in reference to Lotd Darnley wad , that his client disavowed that any debt reined, therefore the better way would be to have it, expunged from the schedule. Mr. Commissioner LAW said that whatever the amount of the penalty was, as inserted in the warrant as a condition, could not be construed as a debt due to his Lortithip. Mr. HEATH (with whom WWI Mr. COOKE) said as Lord DAM , ley was a party in the prosecution, it had been deemed proper by the insolvent's attorney to insert the matter by why of safety ; a there was no objection, the debt had better be struck out. After several deeds relating to property connected with the ir. solvent's estate had been read, and certain amendments ordered. the Court intimated that on Wednesday next (these thine' being done in the interval), he might come up to receive his order to be dis• charged forthwith.

LONDON SESSIONS. Yesterday. these Sessions connnenced beforethe LORD 31A YON the titinttliTS. the REeou DE it, and the City Officers. The RECORDER., in making his charge to the Grand Jury, observed, that there was a yeti, unusual it crease in the number of prisoners, which circumstance he coeld not attribute to the interval between this and the last Sessions, though it had been longer thai• usual. He would not, therefore, congratulate them on the hope ut their attendance being dispensed with, as twice the usual number et prisoners were conttnitted. He should leave it to their own good sense, which be considered would be sufficient todirect them in ,'.e discharge of their duty, without any especial remarks from via Bench. There was one rase, however, on which he thought it ne cessary to make a few observations. This was a charge of rape, most abominable crime, which, if proved, certainly deserved a se vere punishment. As such Charges were sometimes made flat the purpose of r e torting money, he would advise them to ply partite ar attention to the manner In which the prosecutrix gave het art denee. With these remarks he left them to their duty. tritfinnt Sprat!, John Dennett, John Parker, and Trillians !Ism!, were Indicted for causing a riot and assaulting Michael Lynch, in St. Dunstan's-court, Fleet-street, on 13th June last. 1. appeared by the evidence that there WAS a general row between the pieties. Dennett was accused of striking Lynch, and Spratt with aiding and assisting by crying out " go it' s to Dennett ; Parker was likewise very busy in the affair, but Hunt was merely a spec tator, and was a:litit(ed at the direction of the Recorder, and ad niitted as witness for the defendants. The three others were aol found " Guilty," and recommended to make some compensation the prosecutor. r i es s yciferies was indicted for assaulting Sarah Johnson, at No. ;, Willow-walk, on the 30th of last May. Thb prosecutrix stated, that she hail taken a chandler's shop of the defendant, for which she paid 161. though hardly worth as many pence. The defendant had frequently called fur good.. "fine. and to see a lodger named Rymer; but on smite tliettensi. ment, ehe had forbid the defendant coming to her house, and her entering the shop on the above day, comileinant shut the de . r in her face. The defendant then commenced the most riots: t hollow, and insisted on coming in to see Mrs. Cyan-r. burst open the dont, and was turned out by witness; she the.: forced open the hack door, and at last succeeded in getting at a r 9rlour window ; she then took up a knife, and thr ea r e .."l In stab her. and struck both witness and her sister several times.
