PERSIAN GULPII —We are sorry to learn by let-
ters received within the laat few days from Bushire,
that there is evert reason to believe that sonic unfirr-
tunate females have fidlen into the hands of the.
pirates, during the present season, and have actually
been sold in the public basuar, at one of their prin-
cipal stations in the (It:lph. Two of them are said
to be Europeans, and the remaining three natives of
India. We sincerely hope this report may prove ter
be without fitundation; and we d so with the noire
confidence, shice we h..ve never heard of any persons
of this description being missing. They are said,
however, to have been taken in a boat coining to
Bombay, from some place on the NlA:that coast, and
that the snide Europeans in attendance on thent
were put to death In the mean time it may be
satisfactory to know, that Captain Loch, in his.
tiajesty's ship Eden, in company wilt some of the
t ympany's cruizers, has proceeded. to the
stations frequented by the pirates, to demand their'
immediate restoration, should the UCCOtInt prove to
be tiniuded in truth. Tha career of these cruel fr...e.
Looters will, we sincerely hope. be speedily brim... 4

be allowed to exist in the muneliate vicinity of the
British power, and rev the very track of one of the
principal branches of it a trade.
