BAKBADOES. Aram 25.

By the Master of the brig Venn:, from nonavista,
arrived here on Thursday last, we are informed,
that on the sth inst. to windward of St. Jago, he
fell in with an English expedition, consisting of one
ship of the line, two or three sloops of war, and
nine transports, which. from the course they were
then steering. he imagined were bound to Buenos
Ayres: but being sigtrby one of the sloops, was
iatormed by the who boarded, that their
destination was against the river Senegal ; and"trom
their having afterwards changed their course (he
imagines in consequence of ascertaiting from him
the land in sight), Senegal he conceives to be the
obica of their enterprise.

Tt is noticeable that the hitt European advice,
that have at pre.ent reached eiiher Bombay, Madras,
or Calcutta, are those received via America.
We have been furnished with a number of New
South \Vales papers, brought limn Sydney. by
Capt. Forrest ; we have copied into this day's Paper

The crops of wheat and maize, in the different
settlements in New South Walei, had suffered con-
siderable damage from unusually heavy and long
continued rains, which causing the river to over-
flow, the country, in many di,tritts, was com-
pletely inundated.
Tip-pa-he, one of the principal Chiefs of New
Zmiand, with five of his sons, made a voyage to
Sydney, to pay a visit of respea to Governor King.
He was received with every mark of attention by
the Government, and by the ladies and officers of
the settlement.
His Majesty's brig, the Dray Nrlins, was fitted
up fur the accommodation of Tip-pa-he ; and, alter
remaining two or three months with Governor
King, he emharked on board the La:, Nelson, on
his return fee New Zealand, in Mari h or Aptil
last, loaded with presents from the Government,
and the different families in Sydney. The Chief
was overwhelmed with gratitude for the atteation

to his native land a very favourable impression of
the British charalter, which, in the sequel, may be
produElive of much national good ; for in that re-
mote, and hitherto little frequented region, vve can
discern new sources of wealth and maritime pros-
perity opened to the enterprising sons of Great
Britain.
A whale fishery has been recently established on
the coasts of New Zealand, and promises speedily
to rise to great importance. An intercourse has
been opened with the natives on the sea shores, who
are represented as much more docile than when first
discovered. Pitmen.., and many other useful Euro-
pean vegetables, introduced amomg them of late
years, by some of the English ships, are found to
thrive astonishingly ; and tele natives, contrary to
eipettatien, are attentive to their cultivation, and
already raise considerable quantities for their own
supply.

The ofrwial notification of the death of the King
of Delhi, ;sliced on Saturday last, at ram o'clock,
when a funeral salute was fired from Fort
Wisharn, according to the usual form, in minute
guns. extending to 78, being the number of yeas of
axe obtained by the deceased King.
A royal salute succeeded, in commemoration of
the accession of Ackber Shaw. second sou of Shaw
Allurn. to the throne of Delhi.
The demise of the late King of ilindostan. and
the immediate succession to the throne, have occe.
sinned no tumult or commotion. Font troops of ci-
valry marched from Allyghur for Delhi, soon after
the receipt of the intelligence.
The lately deceased King possessed an energetic
mind, though irresolute, indolent, and unfortunately
prone to yield to the counsels of others. When fol-
