LOSS OP A FRENCH FRIGATE.

Extract o( a letter from Halifax (N.S.), dated
May 28

"-The French frigate, L'Afriestins, of 44 gnat, corn-
mended by faplsin Forms, from Martinique to the islands
of St. Pierre nod Miquelon, wan totally lost on the moraiog
of the 113th instant, on the south side of Sable Island, in a
fog. She struck about six o'clock, and in eight mmotes
bilged and heeled over so mach Dort the officers and crew
with difficulty held on by the bulwarks and chain.. An ell.
taltlishmeat is kept up by the Logislatom of the Colony on
this horrible island, fur the put pose of affording assistance
to shipwrecked peison.; and it fortunately hsppened that
the schooner Two Brothers, which takes the annual sup.
ply of provision thither, was still lying there, and, through
the Indefatigable exertions of the Master of her flarby) in-
stantly got under weigh, and at the rink of every thing
dashed over the seeds to her assistance. This small vessel
Wreck theee times, but succeeded tu getting alungside, and
took off the whole of the streviviog officers and crew, ex-
ceeding 200 perineum. Ten were lust in attempting to swim
on shore, and by the upeettleg of the boats. The Two
Brodsee left Sable Wand no the 19th instant, and arrived
here un the evening of the 43d, with the first lientrianut,
surgeon, nod parser, and about 130 men, leaving the es p.
lain and other talkers and crew on the island, with about
ten day* provision. She sailed bark spin oa the following
morning, accompanied by a vessel from the dock-yard, snd
we look foe ►er with them iu a day or I go. It is needless to
say, these poor fellows are well taken care of. A barrack
has heels fitted op fur them or George's Wand, and every
possible comfort and assistance sent thither by the ogler-sof
Sir James Kempf, oar worthy Governor. A vessel will be
contracted for, aa soon se the enplaiu arrives with Ike re-
maiuder, to carry them to Brest."

LYNN, suns 517.

No contested election having Woo place for the
representation of this Borough during the last
38 years, the preeem election is viewed with much
interest. The Gentlemen who have offered them-
selves as Candidates, are the Honnurable Colonel
Walpole (brother of the hoe Member for this
Borough) sod Sir W. B. Folkes, Bart, of Hithug-
ton Hall. An active canvass has beeti carried on
by both parties (by Sir W. B. Fuikes in person,
and by Colonel Walpole through his frierids) ever
since the first intimation of a vacancy having oc-
curred iu the representation of this borough. On
Wednesday Sir William made u public etatre into
the town: he wee met at Garwood by a large party
of his friends, when his horses were taken from the
carriage, and he was drawn in by the populace, fol-
lowed by a numerous cavalcade. Colonel Walpole
• arrived on Wednesday evening. in a Private manner,
after attending the funeral of his father, tlielate
Earl of Orford, oil the preceding day.

table, bin they were all unavailing. After a t;OCl-

Colonel WALK/Eli stood forward to address the
electors, but he was assailed by such vehement ex-
clamations from the opponent party, that it we,
impossible for him to be heard ; he merely, there-

support he had already received from them.
Sir Wu. B. Fouts,, after some delay in gaining
t.silence, spoke to the following effect :

Mis Catholic Majesty begins by regretting, ender Ibs es .
tritordirtary eirculmitsures in which the foreign invasion had
'heed Spain, the melancholy separation between the Meas-
. beta of the great Spanish Family. The King then announces
ahe sending of patificating Commissioners, in the following
teems:—
" Ilia Majwsty, ardently desiring to terminate this painful
slate of anxiety aud useerlaidy, and to carry into execution
the benevolent intentions of the Cortea, has appointed
Commusioorra, who. on arriving in the dissentient regions
Ilheyoud sea, are to hear their propositions, transmit them to
Mie Spanish Govtromecl, and to establish a frank and &n-
-erve correspondence, lutist for its object and result the
welfare of Spa*lards of both countries.
" It is not as a Al h irritated against his misled sub-
jects that bis Majesty presents himself to the American
aidt ots, but as a father who wishes to act as a pacific media-
tor in the dissentious of his children. He wishes to throw a
veil ever the past, in older the better to view the present, and
to consider the present situation of affairs under all the rela-
lieu* which connect it with the future. The common good
etf ebe provinces of the two worlds is the great object of the
negotiation, its Daly basis, and the common centre towards
which all the (*lmbroglios' tend.
Pieter was there a more important transaction; but
never his any Governmeat ahewu seder similar circum-
stances wore fidelity and good faith. His Majesty tomtit
persuade himself that the interests of the Ultre-Marine Pro-
vinces are opposed to those of European Spain; and this
sentiment, worthy of his pineal heart, induees him to seek
the memos of conciliating the common advantage, and give.
bias the consoling hope of finding it."
The Macifesto gives oo further explanation as to the na-
ture of the Conventions which are to be the basis of this
*won of the Colonies, but it endeavours to demonstrate the
eeireme injustice which would lake place on the part of other
rilcereis in recognizing the losuigent Provinces.
0 Sapetfieial miuds say perhaps see a constituted nation,
and a stable and solid govrentneut in each of the provinces
wliirlabive declared their independence, and which, without
regard to the obstacles of every kind to the priori plea of pub-
lic law, or to best known maxima of the law of pillions, be-
here that a .province legitimates its ',dependent examinee,
nod scqoirr• the right of being recognized as a State by other
Powers by the eagle fact of being detached from that of
