their becoming due, as they have dis-,

neither of them tarry in town after the

N. B It is hoped that the
Debtors will be attentive to Settlements,
and ready to make payments, without
tfreir being obliged to make use of the
disagreeable method of suing, as it is
not their desire to make cost on any one
demand.

The British maintain their decided fa,
periority. But few military operations
were making. Small naval and land
expeditions are occaficnally fitted out, to
protest their commerce ; or to suppress
the mutinies of the interior. In one of
the former the island of Madagascar [on

powerful Tippo Saib bad created contid
