TANGIER S, ( Morocco ) Dec. 26.
On the 23d inst. all the Spaniards, or those who
were reputed as such, were Summoned to the castle
of this city by order of the king, together with
the foreign Consuls residing here. When they were
assembled, the declarations or manifeftoes of this
sovereign were read with great solemnity.
In the firft declaration are stated the following
fads ; The king of Morocco having freighted a
vefd of 22 guns for the coast of Spain, the Eng
lish offered to escort it, and guard it from ship
wreck ; when, under a pretence of putting it in or
der, they carried it into Gibraltar, where they
kept it, fending the crew only into Barbary; and
notwithstanding the requisition which was made to
the governor for its being restored, it was always
refufed under frivolous pretences. This proceed
ing determined this monarch to fend to Gibraltar,
on board his own drips, the English mariners be
longing to different vessels which had arrived in the
ports of Barbary, refuting to fend back the vessels,
and assuring the English, that if they had not a
force fufficient to bring them away, they ffiould
flay there till they perished. The king would not
have proceeded to such extremities, had he not
been forced to it by the mifeondud of the English,
which will be further proved by the following fads:
1. His Majesty having sent one of his vessels to
London with 20,000 hard crowns, to employ them
in various merchandise, and having recommended
them to the British ministry, they pretended not
to have understood the commission, and sent back
the commissioner to Tunis, after expending the
whole sum, or the greatest part of it, in a very
imprudent manner.
11. Sabar Feniz having been sent to the fame
court in quality of ambassador from the king of
Morocco, with a large quantity of copper to be
made into artillery, the English, sent only (by way
of present) some small cannon with carriages, which,
burst the firft time they were let off, without be
ing at the pains of giving any account of the copper,
or fending back the value of it, which was very
considerable.
111. The English consul at Tangiers employed
himfelf entirely in creating diffentions between his
Majesty and the Spaniards, and even his own fub
jeds, in treating with contempt the good harmony
which subsisted between him and the Spaniards, and
in exciting the fubjeds to disobey the orders given
by their sovereign in favour of the Spaniards, and
to insult the latter both by words and actions.
Besides the above proceedings, they suborned the
Moors on the coast, as far as Ceuta, to do all the
mifchief in their power to the Spanish veflels which
came within their reach. Such has been the con
duct of the English, and their gratitude for the fa
vours granted to them by the African monarch.
In the second manifefto is explained the obliga
tions whifh the king of Morocco has been under at
all times to the king of Spain, and which has de
termined him to prefer his friendship to that of the
English, and of favouring the interest of the Spa
nish nation in every thing.
Jan. 6. All the Christians, except the Spaniards,
are forbidden from entering the city of Larrache,
and that in so severe a manner, that even travellers
are obliged to go round the town. It is not ima
gined the Christians will be treated more favour
ably, unless the Emperor should be disposed to re
lent when he returns to Morocco, and pafl'es
through Salee, Fedala, Mogador.
The Jew Elioha Levi, who is in poffeflion ofthe
houses and effects which the Consuls were obliged
to leave when they quitted Larrache, is arrived
here, and makes pretensions to the house of the
English Consul, and all the effeds are packing up
and flowing in warehouses, by order of said Levi.
The English Consul and his family, and other Eng
lish persons, were sent in two barks to Gibraltar;
but it is most likely they will not be able to get in
to that place, and will be therefore very probably
sent to Algefiras.

A BEAUTILUL FULL BLOODED BAY HORSE,
NINE years old, and at lead fifteen hands and a
half high, the property of Apollo Woodard,
will cover mares for the season, at his plantation in
Burlington county, at Eight Hard Dollars. He was
bred by Col. Grant, and got by Samuel Galloway,
Esquire's, well known running horse Selim, that
started 011 the Philadelphia course in the year 1762,
with True Briton, for the large sum of £. 1000, and
tho' Briton then was, and dill is allowed to be one
of the best running horses on this continent, Selim
beat him with ease. His grand fire, Col. Talker's
Othello, came out of Col. Grant's Milley, who was
the dam of True Briton, Britannia, Liberty, and the
Earl of Dunmore's fine horse Regulus, allowed by
the best judges, to be the most beautiful creature in
Virginia, and a full brother to Wilkes, got by Old'
Spark, and full lifter to Col. Hopper's Pacolet : Her
dam was Queen Mab, got by Mufgrave's Grey Ara
bian, a most beautiful horse, for whom he refufed
Five Hundred Guineas. He was up at Ten Guineas
a leap. His dam by the Hampton colt Childers;
her grandam by the Chefnut Arabian ; her great gran
dam was a Barb, brought over by Mr. Marlhall, and
was the dam of Mr. Croft's Grey Hound.
N. B. Wilkes's colts are allowed by the most com
petent judges, to be superior to any horse's in Ame
rica, for the saddle or sod. gw*
