your Excellency will have observed, that I trans-
mitted to that Minister a copy of a dispatch to
Lord Siningford, His Majesty's Envoy Extraordi-
nary and Minister Plenipotentiary to the Court
Brazil, in which I signified to Lord Stringford
His Majesty's commands, that he should exert
hinisell to procure the consent and co-operation of
the Court of Brazil, to the great work of abolishing
the trade in slaves; and that 1 recommended to
Mr. Frere to take any favourable opportunity of
inculcating similar sentiments among the persons
in authority in Spain, though of ci,tirse without
making any demand, or requiring any formal
pledge upon the subject.
I have now the satisfaction to inclose to your Ex-
cellency the copy of an article in a treaty, which
boa been concluded • between Lord Strangfurd arol
the Portuguese Government, at Rio de Janeiro,
your Excellency will 6nd the principles
which His Majesty was desirous of seeing adopted
by his Ally. recognised to their full extent, and
considerable hopes held oat of their being at least
gradually acted urea by the Brazilian Govern-
ment.

Such an admission by a Government which may
be topito*rd to be go ranch interested, ht the pre-

woven with the habits of Meit subject+, and with
the system of cultivation throuKhout the duininions
where the Coast at present resides, will furnish
your Excelleuey with new topics for urging the
adoption of a ►imilar policy by Spain, whenever a
tit opportunity shall occur for bringing that dis-
cussion forward.--L have the honour to tie, &c.

Letters have been received from Teneriffe, -of
the 15,i, of March. By these it appeals that the
town mit Santa Cruz had been for upwards of three
dnys to a stale of anarchy and confit.ion, and that,
had it not been for the rumness and resolution of
some of the wealthy iuliabitatits, no one could say
where it would have ended. It (gyrate, that itt the
first week of Lent the very lowest class of people
began to collect in large bodies, and commenced
clamouring about the great number of Prenc
prisoners then in the Island. According as their
numbers increased, they boldly demanded the
heads of two Frenchmen for some time established
in time ',land. They marched in a body' of about
000 to the house of Mr. Cotou•a ; and, not-
witlistaudiug the entreaties of tins Gentlemen and
the Governor. they seised a Mr. Baesse, his
Llm•rk, and, after *assusnuating him in the must
cruel manner, dragged his remains through the
streets, and their went in search of a Mr. BIROAL,
a schoolmaster. whir had tsken refuge in the Mole
Battery. Having found him there, they tore hiui
teem the Governor and Alcalde's side, who in
vain etideavourei to afford him proteaton. He
was treated in ale same manner as Mr. Basita,
and afterwards tied by one foot to the stern of a
vessel in La Plaza del Charts. Another party of
these miscreants marched to a smell village it shot
distance (rota the lawn, where some French pri-
soners were gurrtered ; bat the inhabitants, up-
prised of their approach, armed themselves in de-
fence of the prisoners, and refused them entrance
into the village, sod they were compelled to reline
without effecting their purpose. By this time the
wealthy inhabitants, having armed themselsee, re•
paired to one of their meeting., seized aro( the
principal ringleaders, and lodged them safely in the
castle. which effort had the good effect of restoring
tranquillity to the place. The priucipal merchants'
of the idstal express a wish that seine transports
luny be seat by the English Government for the
rename' of the French pri.ottesei. the mlinher of
