INUNDATION.
Translated from "THE DARIO DE MADRID."
MADRID, May 16.
The following is an extract of a letter, written from the city of Lorca, by one of its inhabitants, to his friend in this city, in which he gives an account of the dreadful accident which befel that city from the breaking of a bank or mound, which was constructed a few years ago to contain the water for the purpose of watering the fields in the neighborhood of that city. The number drowned by this misfortune amounted to six thousand.
"I make known to you, Sir, that on the night of April, (which will be memorable for ages to come) at half past three o'clock in the afternoon, a youth ran into my house and gave me the lamentable information that the bank had given way; he accompanied these expressions with so many tears and such sobbing that he could scarcely articulate or I understand him. On receiving this fatal notice, I ran with great precipitation into the street, where I found a general commotion among the people, who were leaving their dwellings to put themselves in a place of safety. I returned to my house, and by my cries collected my wife, children and family; they saw my trouble; we all ran precipitately to Calvario to escape the great danger which threatened us. We there found a considerable number of people filled with trouble and dread, calling upon God and begging for mercy with loud cries and lamentations. I then saw vast quantities of water descending from the hills which directed itself with the greatest fury imaginable towards San Diego, spreading itself over all the fields, having its general direction towards the olive trees. I left my family at Calvario and went to the street De las Caves, from thence I saw the water breaking down the Convent of Mercy; arriving at the gate of Bordeja, the market no longer appeared; I passed to the House de Miralles; they there told me that houses, families, and every thing else had been swept away from the Botica to the Oratell, on both sides. The water covered the hills and carried away the whole population on the right of the fountain. Our Corregidor was in the palace directing assistance to be given; he was surrounded by many people; the generale was beat, and every thing was done for the tranquillity of the people. At this time news was received that at the Mill of Buena Vista, they had found the Lord Counsellor, who had been drowned; immediately orders were given to the people to bring his body; at 12 o'clock at night it was brought to Castillo. I repaired to the Gate of St. Gines; I there saw that the steeple of the Convent of Mercy was threatened with ruin. I repaired to the Gate of Don John Antonio Albuquerque, where at this season his wife and family reside; they had fled on horseback. Monjont was commissioned to collect the dead bodies in the Ovale.
"At break of day the following morning, we heard nothing but lamentations; some looking for their parents, others for their children; women seeking for their husbands, and all trying to unite their families. At the gate called St. Gines, we can no longer see the sites where the houses stood; every thing is desolation from the Convent of Mercy to the Hospital of Women; the houses carried away from the barrier alone are reckoned at 400 and what are left are greatly injured as the water was in all the second stories. The sacred vessels of the Convent of Mercy were found at two leagues distance; the Church of San Cristoval is not much injured, though the water was up to the cornices. San Diego is abandoned; the Saints are all removed; the same is the case with La Merced, because mud and trash are left in them two yards deep. Every thing is taken from the Tower of La Merced, as it threatened to fall to ruin. Trenches are dug without the town, where they are going to bury the dead, without distinction of persons, and where they are now collecting them in carriages. All the fields and gardens, from the Garden de Graces to the road that passes this have been a river. No inhabitants are left; people, olive trees, gardens, all have perished and are ruined. It is fortunate that the whole city did not suffer the same fate; this would have been the case if the bank had not given way where it did, and the water taken a direction to the left of San Diego. The Lord Counsellor might have been saved, as was the son of his assistant and his servant, but he confided in his mules, and perished with them and his coachman. People are sent to Velez to grind grain; we have no longer any mills; of thirteen which we had, only that of Buena-Vista remains, and that is injured: of oil mills not one left; of the greatest part of Santa Quiteria only the foundations are left. The vaults and groves are full of timber and furniture. The books and accounts of Roman Gastes were found at the farm house of Sotuliena and 34,000 reals belonging to him also. As yet I have neither eat nor slept: all is confusion and dismay; all are weeping over the dreadful accident. At present I

Its inhabitants are what are called New Christians, being the descendants of the converted Moors. Though this city is large, it is fallen much to decay and is thinly inhabited.
can send you no further particulars on this subject, but I will venture to say, that the damage will be much greater when the waters have passed twenty leagues, which is the distance from hence to the sea, and when they have encountered Murcia, Orihuela, and other places in their way."

HAMBURGH, July 20.
The Ottoman empire is falling asunder on all sides with more rapidity than could have been presumed. The Sultan has no children. Shut up in his Seraglio, he only goes out to the Mosque every Friday. The military hopes conceived of him in his youth, and which occasioned his being proclaimed with enthusiasm by his Janisaries, have vanished. The Sultana Valide has long appeared to have some influence; and at Constantinople, as in France, Naples, and in many other places, the influence of women has produced great misery.

LONDON, July 25.
The Algerine corsairs have committed some considerable piracies in the Mediterranean.
A letter from Naples, dated the 2d of June, states, that in the course of six weeks they have taken five Neapolitan vessels, two Spanish, one English, one Genoese, a Portuguese frigate and two French brigs. The British Consul had made strong representations on the detention of the English ship, but according to the latest intelligence, the Regency had not released her.
At length hostilities have openly commenced between the Emperor of Morocco and the United States, and the following public notice of this event has been officially given to the commanders of American vessels by the consul of the United States, resident at Paris:
"Paris, July 13.
"Sir, "Letters which I have just received from Commodore Morris, who commands the squadron of the United States in the Mediterranean, and our Consul at Gibraltar, Mr. Gavino, announce the disagreeable intelligence of the arrival in that port of Mr. Simpson from Tangiers. The Emperor of Morocco obliged him to depart with precipitation, and at the same time ordered all his vessels to be armed against the American commerce.
"I beg you will without delay inform our commercial agents in the different ports of France of this event, requesting them to dispatch copies of this letter by the first vessels that sail for the United States or the West-Indies, and inviting the captains of these vessels to publish it in the ports where they arrive.
"Commodore Morris recommends to all American vessels destined for the Mediterranean to repair to Cadiz, a rendezvous where they will find a convoy charged with protecting them on their entrance into the straights.
I am, &c.

The Monitor contains a long article from Genoa, which those who are of suspicious turn of mind cannot but regard as important. It relates to the capture of vessels of different nations by the Algerines, and closes with the following remark:—"The French government will not permit such insults to go unpunished; and if other powers suffer their flag to be insulted, and their commerce to be pillaged, the First Consul will maintain inviolable, in the Mediterranean, the honour of the French flag, and guarantee the security which he has promised to all commercial pecuniations.

PARIS, July 30.
Some English officers, on their passage from Malta to the ports of Italy, have had to fight their way through several Barbary cruisers which attacked them. They have deposited that several merchant vessels have fallen into the hands of these pirates.
August 7.
The accounts from Vienna mention, that the retreat of the rebel troops into Wallachia was no more than a feint, and that they quickly returned and recommenced hostilities. One body which had passed the Austrian frontier in Transylvania, was repulsed by the regiment of Spony, and complaints were transmitted to the revolted pacha of Widdan, who denies having given any orders to this purpose, and that those troops are not under his orders; finally, he consents that the Austrian generals shall treat such as pass the frontier as banditti and freebooters.
Georgi Osman Pacha has made his submission to the Porte, if so it can be called, and the Captain Pacha has retrograded his army. The terms of his submission were, that the Porte should restore to him the Pashaluk of Silistria, and pay the arrears due to his troops, to the amount of one million of piastres. The Captain Pacha invited him to a conference; but Giorgi Osman, recollecting
what had happened about four years since to another Pacha under similar circumstances, who was shot while at table begged leave to decline the honor of the invitation. Ali Basha also, having effected his reconciliation, is to be restored to the government of Romania. Both these generals have made their own terms, from which may easily be inferred the weakness of the Turkish empire in Europe.

WILMINGTON, September 18.
By the brig Hornet, Capt. Love, from Cumana, upon the Spanish Main. On Saturday the 3d July a shock of an earthquake was felt in Cumana, and along the main to Barcelona, La Guira and the city of Carracas. It happened at midnight and lasted about 25 seconds. Nor other damage was done than cracking the weakest of the houses and occasioning a considerable alarm—and on Saturday the 14th Aug. between 11 and 12 o'clock A. M. a very remarkably violent shock was also felt there. Its duration was about 12 seconds, but so severe that almost every house in town was torn to pieces and ruined! A considerable number were shook down and some persons killed—The agitation of the ground was so violent as to open in several places from whence sprung fresh water. It was very difficult to stand without support. A ship that was upon the stocks was moved six inches in an easterly direction, and several houses were also moved from three to six feet in the same direction. In some places the ground sunk two feet, and in others rose as much. It was attended as is generally the case with a dismal roaring noise under ground. The distress and alarm occasioned is indescribable. The houses were deserted and tents erected in the streets. The damage was estimated at two hundred thousand dollars. The earth continued shaking slightly at intervals, until Tuesday the 17th Aug. when we failed—and about 3 hours after we left Cumana, being about 5 leagues distant from it and the nearest land (of soundings,) we felt on board a sudden and severe shock, which no doubt has completed the destruction of the shattered houses in Cumana!—The churches being lofty buildings, were all unroofed. According to the custom of Catholic countries, the Holy Virgin was carried through the streets, night and day, elegantly dressed and illuminated, followed by thousands singing Miserecordia, (have pity on us)—Great apprehension was entertained for the city of Carracas, the buildings there being lofty. Should the earthquake have happened, as was expected, it must have been destroyed.
In Dec. 1707—Cumana was destroyed by an earthquake, all the houses being shook down.

LONDON, August 1.
Extract of a letter, "Gibraltar, June 24.
"Sir Robert Barlow, of his majesty's ship Triumph, of 74 guns, and a frigate have failed for Algiers, in consequence of the Algerines detaining three English vessels, on pretence of their having used false Mediterranean passes or old ones that had been used for other vessels. The Algerines have condemned the vessels and cargoes and sold them. We expect Sir Robert will only demand the men from slavery. The Algerines lately sent a frigate and two xebecs, down to the back of the rock, with an intention to take a Portuguese frigate, and a line of battle ship, cruising in the Gut; they only met the frigate, within our sight: the two xebecs boarded her, and carried her away to Algiers, after murdering nearly all on board. We expect they will take some more of them soon.

"An American frigate, commanded by captain M'Neil, a short time ago fell in with 3 corsairs belonging to Tunis, in chase of a Venetian vessel, near Sicily; and captain M'Neil, from the similarity of their colors, mistaking them for Tripolitan vessels, immediately attacked them; and after a most bloody action, in which he lost a number of officers and men, he sunk two of the enemy, the third making her escape, much shattered. This will inevitably occasion a rupture between the dey of Tunis and the Americans."

Citizen Fouche has, within these few days, caused twelve of his former confraternity, Jacobins, or reputed such, male and female, to be taken in custody. They have been put into the Temple, as the successors to some of the 150 [free] Frenchmen whose sentence of transportation Bonaparte signed on the morning of the 14th of July last, [The better day, the better deed] without the previous ceremony of a trial. Among these fresh victims, there is an individual of the name of Gondalier, who was absurdly said to be implicated in the affair of Bareuth; and another named the Marquis de la Maisonfort, whose only crime is to have published some unpleasant truths relative to Fouche himself.
The island of Elba is the depot of citizen Fouche, and the island of Madagascar is destined to receive those Frenchmen who may happen to incur his displeasure.
Though the minister of the police be extremely zealous and active, his credit is decreasing. Our brother Lucien has, since his reconciliation at court, done every thing to injure him. Lucien does not forget that it was Fouche who drove him from the administration of the home department, and par pari refertur is one of Lucien's axioms.
Private letters state that a wonderful change is about to take place in the government of the ci-devant French republic. In the interim, the senators are trembling; the members of the tribunate are shuddering, while the humble legislators observe a modest and studied silence.
A new Vendee is breaking out; the Jacobins in that country have avowed themselves the friends of Moreau, he is their countryman in a wide sense and the consequent enemy of Bonaparte. The walls of Rennes are every night covered with Placards, bearing these energetic words—Vive Moreau! Guerre a Bonaparte! To these exclamations are also added the most violent invectives against the first consul. Mouner, the new prefect knows not what to do—he is thunderstruck—he had however, the resolution to remove from within his jurisdiction a demi-brigade, which had manifested a very emphatical opinion in favor of Moreau; but the removal alluded to, did, by no means, do away the subject of complaint—for the Bretons, to a man, wish to see Moreau at the head of affairs.

The exchequer of France being exhausted, Bonaparte, three weeks ago, dispatched a message to a rich contractor of the name of Ouvrard, in which he was ordered to furnish him instantaneously with a very considerable sum, for which he would allow him proper interest. The contractor, however, neither answered the letter, nor waited on the writer of it; the consequence was, that the citoyen Fournisseur was furnished with apartments gratis, in the Temple. During his short stay in the Bastille , the person who in his absence was to victual the navy, committed so many blunders, that the place was again offered to him, but the steady Ouvrard declined it with manly contempt.
Poor Toussaint is destined to occupy the dungeon of Besancon, lately vacated by M. de Beaumont, who has been transferred to the Bastille of Ham, in Picardy.
August 7. Extract of a private letter from Paris, August 1.
"Nothing is now talked of that would excite interest at Paris; but from the most authentic documents, there are great discontents, and three parties.—The first, and most dangerous, because it now acts with caution, is that of the Jacobins. It is more to be feared, on account of some of the party being members of the administration, and of course in possession of the secrets of government. They watch for an opportunity to appear with éclat ; and, if ever it should offer, it might be the ruin of France."
"The second is that of government, which, though seemingly strong, depends only on the military, who may at pleasure discard and chuse their leaders. The third is that of the royalists, who have not given up all hopes of re-instating themselves, though their party is almost beaten down."

The Porte appears very much alarmed at the occupation of Georgia, by the Russians, and at the war which they have undertaken against Persia, Georgia, Mingrelia and Guriel, and claimed the protection of Russia against Mahomet Kan. A Russian army has marched upon Astracan, passed the Derbent, and entered the province of Ghilan. Cabar Kan, the new emperor of Persia, has marched with a numerous army to encounter the Russian army. If Russia should be able to render Persia her tributary, the Empire of Constantinople will be surrounded by that immense Power.

SACRED TO THE MUSES.
PLEASURE.
See pleasure: with deceitful smiles She woos the heart to taste her joy, But oh! avoid her fyren wiles, She smiles—yet smiles but to destroy.
Tho' chaplets do her brows adorn, What tho' she's jocund as the spring? Beware! there is a hidden thorn— A thorn that will forever sting.
Dare not the influence of her eyes; Beware the poison of her breath; Fly from her arms, there ruin lies. Her smiles are fate—her song is death.
DESCRIPTION OF A PARTY OF PLEASURE.
We went out clean—we came home dirty. We went out sober; we came home drunk. We went out well; we came home sick. We went out laughing; we came home crying. We went out sound; we came home broken. We went out with cash; we came home money- less. We went out for air; we came home full of dust.
These are the usual pains of a party of plea- sure, and let those who are fond of happiness enjoy them.

AN
OF THE
LAWS OF THE UNITED STATES,
OR,
A complete Digest of all such Acts of Congress, as concern the United States at large.
By Wm. GRAYDON, Esq.
CONDITIONS.
I. This work shall commence with the laws passed at the first session of Congress, held after the adoption of the Federal Constitution, and end with those that may be enacted at the present session.
II. The whole will be comprised in one large octavo volume, of at least six hundred pages, and perhaps considerably more: it being impossible, till after the present session of Congress, to pronounce with accuracy.
III. It shall be printed on good paper, and type, and well bound, at FOUR DOLLARS. No money will be requi- red till the work is completed, of which notice will be given—N.B. It is at present in considerable forwardness.
IV. The Constitution of the United States shall be prefixed, and an Appen- dix added, containing all existing Tre- aties, the Declaration of Independence, the Articles of Confederation, the Rules and Articles for the government of the Army, and the Ordinance for the govern- ment of the Territory North West of the Ohio.
V. Lists shall be given of the titles of all the laws under the several heads of "Abridged"—"Repealed"—"Expired or Obsolete," and "Private or Local." Likewise, Tables of the rates of Duties, Post-Roads, and times of holding Courts throughout the United States.
The convenience of One book instead of Six, the difference of the price (be- ing only one third the rate of other edi- tions,) and the superior advantage of ha- ving all the laws upon each particular subject, classed together, and brought in- to one view, must appear striking and im- portant; particularly as this work will be more within the reach of every one, and will comprize whatever his duty or interest requires him to know of the "supreme law of the land."
