By several letters from officers of
the American squadron in the Mediter
ranean, it appears, that the Boston fri
gate, Capt. M'Niel, was off Tripoli,
about the ift. of June. The report,
therefore of the engagement with the
gun-boats was erroneous.

We look to him for a defence of Mr.

exoetP him to decide, after due consid

virtuous. This ought not to appal the

14 guns, being off Cape St. Vincents. She ap
peared to be American built, with a white bot

Capt. Noice, arrived here from Ma

the Moors were already in the Atlan

By recent letters it is dated, on the
authority of Richard O'Brien, efq. that
Spain, in order to avoid a war threat
ened by Algiers, he consented to pay
the Dey the enormous fam of two mil
lions of dollars, and to alter her na
tional colours.—This, with the capture
of the Portuguese frigate has so elated
the Algerines that our Consul fays he
expefts the Dey will shortly, and at an
unguarded moment declare waragainft

Nuptials of the Coorga Rajah's daughter.
We have been favored with the fol
lowing extract of a letter from Serin
gapatam giving an account of the late
Nuptials of the daughter of the Coorga
Rajah, named Tambaratty Lafhme.
The roads in every direction for sev
eral Cofs, were illuminated on each fide
, and ornamented with curious and cost
ly devices. They commenced from
the entrance of Nanoar, extending to
the limits of the Cufbar. Three En
glilh gentlemen, captains Foulis, Mar
riot and Ofoorne, attended this splendid
ceremony.
On their arrival at the Palace they
were saluted with one and twenty guns,
and ushered into the presence to the
notes of foft music, feled bands of the
Hindoftany girls, dancing before them.
For the space of seven days the rejoicing
continued, each fucceffire day varied
by amusements created by the happy
• and inventive genius of the Rajah him
felf—who fludied with his wonted lib
erality the accommodation and pleasure
of his guelts ; at the end of the seventh
Jay the above mentioned gentlemen
took their leave and were compliment
ed by the Rajah for the favor of their
attendance.
On one occasion during the feftival,at
the grand hunt,attended by the Rajah &
his company, no less than 18 elks, 14
wild buffaloes, 13 cheeters or spotted
tigers, 2 elephants and 32 wild boars
/were slain. The heads of these animals
were laid in triumph at the feet of the
young, amiable, and blooming Bride,
;who has scarcely attained her 15th
Iyear. This Princess, it is said, poffefles
;very superior accomplishments, certain
it is that nature has been moll kind to
her, in a lovely and animated counte
nance and a mod beautiful and delicate
I form.
Her husband, the Joonda Rajah, is
about 30 years of age, a well-informed
and pl,,afant character.

Extract from the Baltimore Republican; tie.
The press has been the instrument by which
the present calamities have risen, and the press
must be the remedy, or the evil is rcmedilefs.
It is a duty men owe to their God, to society,
to their offspring, to encourage the circulation
of publications; the tendency dfwhich is strong
ly to the public welfare—Now ought to be the
st ru ggle, vehement, manly and persevering. If
the struggle he not made, and be not fuccefsful,
the wounds the constitution has already receiv
ed will never be healed, and the proposed a
mendments will inevitably operate its speedy
deftruClion; and sure as night follows day, un
der the pretence of making rulers more immedi
ately responsible to the people, the senate and
the house will be one ; all power, executive, le
gislative, and judiciary, will be lodged in a sin
gle popular branch ; this will govern the na
tion, and two or three leading characters will
govern this; the appointment to office will be
come far more than now a matter of corruption ;
offices will be filled only by unworthy charac
ters; “ keep me in and I will keep you in, 1 ' or
turn this president out and put me in, and 1
will give you this office/' will be the language
of successive factions, till some Bonaparte ffiall
grasp the whole.

“ In an age in which the principles of
morality are relaxed, and the wildest and
most dangerous passions inflamed, by the
immoral publications of the NewSchooß
the public are greatly indebted to tho' A
who undertake to oppose the torrent
innovation, and vindicate the morals of
our ancestors and the doctrines of our
religion. Publications, dirededto youth,
warning them of the daggers to which
they are exposed, are peculiarly ufeful.
Mrs Weft, has been eminently distin
guished for her exertions in this rJpe&
Her novels are much celebrated ; thev
have passed through many editions in
England ; contain pure morality, and
exhibit great knowledge of the world.—
Her address to her son is one of the best
books that can be put into the h»nds of
theyoung men of this age. It is an ex.
celltnt antidote to the poisonous publi

It exhibits a fyflern of principles, which,
if adopted, will conduct to refpe&friity

maxims of morality, and demonstrates
their absurdity. It marks the feveraliu

manners, which have imperceptibly cor

an excellent remedy against their influ
