" The narratives of which this work consists, considered merely
in the light of Tales,. would be entitled to the highest praise, for
the skill with which they are managed, the variety of incidents,
the deep interest, and all the beauties of style which they dis.
play. But when to these are added a fac.nintile of real manners,
some of them new in the social world, a crowd of anecdotes, con.
netted with almost every eminent or remarkable character who has
crossed the Alps, the openiog of Roman and Neapolitan domes-
ticities, by one who seems intimate with all their mysteries, and
the mmasional appearance on the scene of individuals of historical
notoriety, with the solution of many political riddles hitherto left
unravelled, it will be seen that these volumes possess a higher
claim to public attention than that of atlinding a.nusement ; and
that they deserve to be read, as a Source of TaloaNe instruction,

QIMPPON'S ROYAL ELIXIR OF LIFE.—This

been mediated by the present Proprietor, is most faithfully adherefl
to. For Flatulence, Spasms, or (lout in the St,unach, Its beneficial
effects are unrivalled, as it gives immediate relief in !Ile!) casts;

in cues of nervous debility, whether necasior ed by a long residence
in tropical climates, natural deficiency of energy in the system, or
from a too luxurious nut& of life. This Elixir will be found, on a
sufficient trial, a never-failing restorative to tore and vigour. Gen-
tlemen who ocasio.inlly exceed the strict bounds of temperance will,
by taking • dose of this Elixir on retiring to rest. exempt themselves
from the usual unpleasant effects of such excess the following day.

His Majesty ht ship Redwing arrived-at Sierra Leone on the 4th
of August, after a passage of nearly two menthe, having been de-
taMed above a forrnigl:t at St. Vincent's, one of the Cape de Verde
Islands, by the following circumstance:—on her arrival there
the Portuguese Governor applied to Captain Calming for lies
eitairtanre in capturing a piratical schooner, then lying in Tarnsol
Bay, in the neighbouring island of St. Amonfo, the crew of which
had left their Captain and supercargo on shore, trading on the
African coast. and had stolen the vessel and cargo, chiefly tobacco
and gunpowder; she was armed with a 1014 f 10-pounder on a swivel
and ebundance of muskets, cutlasses, pikes, &r. Accordingly,
Lieutenant Card, with Messrs. Jackson and litemorris, passed
mates, and eighteen men, were despatchttl in the pinnace, and the
next morning saw the schooner under weigh, beating to windward.
They pursued her for three days, and at length on
the morning of
the 10th July, after losing sight of her in the night, she was
seen at anchor off Point de Sae St. Antonio. Ott our boat cap.

told the boat was English, began to fire musketry on the brat's

and I;owspri Irandishing their swards, &e.; orders were given to
board, and she was accordingly attacked before the !erg gun, which
was already loaded, could begot to bear." The officers and crew of
the boat were not a minute before they gained possession of her, as
the whole of the people on board, except two, jumped overboard
and swam to the shore, On examination, they were found not to
be the original piratical crew, but Portuguese, who, under a
semblance of friendship, invited the crew on shore to an enter.
tainment without excittng their suspicions, took them into meetly
whilst unprepared for defence, and then sent off' people from the
Island to take possession of her. The reason they stated for tiring
on our pinnace was, that they imagined that they were the pirates
who bad broken out of prison, and were coming to retake the
schooner. After a considerable time .spent in correspondence,
Captain Clavering found himself compelled to give her up to the
Portuguese, as they had previous possession of her.

European piece goods in '1823, were 2.737 eases ; In 1324, th"ere
rete 3,131 canes, fourteen bales, and fifteen corgm. Those
of India piece goods in the first-mentioned year amounted to
2,681 bales, but in 1824, only to 1,419 hales, exhibi•ing en ex-
/
trao•dinary dlninution in this branch of trade, ant might be ex..
peeled from the incroued taste for the fabrics of Europe. Ti..
trade in Tlingit; piece goods has sustained a proportional hi.
' "lion, however, shows a different result, having increased ,secs
0864 to 10,072. In another material article, goldlialtion, there has
place in the epitim trade. In 1823 there were imported 60Ichests,
and exported 463. Last year the importations were 1203 chests,
and the exportation% 966, of which 403 were asters wined to have
been taken off by the native traders only.
We may conclude this list with the article of epices, of which the
exportation in 1023 was 443.9555 p. Drs., but in 1824 had increased
to 697.483. In looking over the retiirns of the pest vsar, we are
gratified to remark the presence of several new °tildes, and of
others which dcserre to be considered as such fiom the very import-
ant increase in their amounts. These articles are—mocher-of.pearl
shells, speller, sago, gunpowder, and Bre-arms.
Before concluding this statement, it is proper we sheuld notice
that the dativfeorn tvhich it is drown are the official returns of this-
years 1823-4, for which we are indebted to the 'liberality of the
i alaster aajlentlant, end that we have nowhere referred to h staff:.:1 ment of elle trade of 1823, drawn front different materials, and coy_

arises principally out of the timidity of the native trudent a.

The import of tanoiseshell, all returned by natives, emotion; only

the present exports of European articles from Singapore alone. Now
as it is asserted, and with every appearance of probability, that the
trade of Prince of Wales Wand has not !ellen otf, out evert
considerably increased since 11119, it follows that the notional
trade carried on in the Straits of Malacca has been since inercesed
by at least the whole amount of the trade of Sintranore; and
that in consequence instead of amounting to 2,002,333
4nnildt
dollars, it am-tally amounts to 9,267,189 Spanish defiant, ot6 to
above two millions sterling, having thus, in the period of five
yeses, been augmented by nearly two hundred and fifty per cent-
• The whole "mutation of Singapore. according to a census cane
eluded on the 30th of December, 1824, amounted to 12,219, ae-

When to this number is added the military and their foller*.
388 persons. we have the whole
population already given. .Iw t we
add to it a floating population of 2,509 throughout tbe•year, lir ii
the census for 1823, then we hare a total population of 144111, be-
ing an imitate of 1,140 within the year, chiefly from emigrating.
In this period the European settlers have increased by 10--the na-
tire Clitietians by 53—the Deccanneesa, principally native* of the
Coromandel coast. by 300—the Malays and Javanese by 1.306, and
the Chinese by rill.
The population row enumerated is distributed al follows:—The
central part of the Settlement, containing the:dwellings of the Euro-
pean residents, consists of 668 inhabitants only. The portion lying
to the S. %Vest aide coin/tins 4296 inhabitants, of whom no leas
than 2619 are Chinese. The native town coutainespoptdittlati of
3063, of whom 2332 are natives of the Indian islands. . The gua.
bliehment formed within the last twos ea
in the new Harbour or
Straits Pinned between Singapore and the who ml 5 islets to the
westward of it contains 1009 inhabitants. of whom 1533 are Mx.
lays. A population of 2215 is scattered over the interior be Na
island
ins g
and plantations, to the depth of three and even
four mike rd
the see side.
The occupations of the different classes of rociety may be shandy
adverted to. An unusual proportion is employed in wheleaalv erd
retail trade. The principal artificers are house-carp enter*. bit.ek-
smiths, and bricklaye, of the greater number Chin
esee t porn!.
and day hibnurers consist of Chinme and Malays, een,
almost exclusively natives's( the Coromandel .st

a nut:nem,' class of Malays, and the descripti of seafaritlye
Chinese called Ahia. The number of pereons employed M agri-
culture Lahore 1000, of whom neatly a third are Chinese, the to.
minder being Maley, and Bugle.
The most singular feature of the population now enumerated
is the great disproportion of the seam. In no class do the number
of women equal that of the men. In the Blight, fe esarople,
they are not one-half, and in the Chinese, the most effletive rare
of the native population, they are only at one to thuteee, Erort
the small number of women and children entering into the pops,
tenon of Singapore. and the necestarily terse proponion of Malts
adults, it follows as a matter bf course, that it is greatly, more ef-
ficient than its numerical amount would seem to indicate.
efficiency of the population would be highly rated if the unusual
