Extract of a letter from the Agent to Lloyd's at Gibralcar,
dated W;th June.—" By the arrival of the United States' vessels
of war I 'eacack and Spark, front Leghorn and. Algiers, we learn,
that ir formation was given to them at Leghorn 19 days ago, by
the American Consul, aim Algerine squadron being at tea, con-
sisting of two sloops of war, two brigs, one sc::ooncr, and ene
row galley, and that war had been declared by the Regency
against Tuscany. The Peacock and Spark went iu consequence
to Algiers, and ascertained tin, information to be true, but COUill
get no tidings of the course the squadron took, although they
boar,. ~.d every vessel they met un their way down here. It is Cis
opinion of the American Officers that the operations of this Itir,:a
are directed against Tunis, with which State the Algerines are in
hostility. I am touch inclined, however, to think, that their
plans are directed ag,inst the weakest of the Italian States, and
that we shall shortly hear of numerous captures."

LOSS OF THE BRIG WILLIAM AND MATTHEW.

66 Barrington, May 19, IS•zo.
66 Gentletnen,—l am sorry to inlhrm you, ter the informatlON
of those who may be interested, that the brig William and Mat-
thew, Captain Evans, from London, was wrecked on the night
of the 12th instant, on Cape Negro, and what adds to the mis •
fortune is, that E. Winslow, Esq. the prineidal owner, in Ina
anxiety to reach shore was drowned, with one of the seamen;
the vessel is now in chips, and from the continued violence of
the easterly wind, and the nature of the place, very little big
been saved ; not a single article of woollen ur cotton goods hats
yet appeared. I have, at the wish of the Captain advertised the
few articles saved, for sale on the 234 inst. The body of Mr.
Winslow has nut yet been found, but I have offered a liberal
reward for it, and if I succeed, shall carry him to Shelbome, and
inter hint with the respect due to his character and connections.
Whatever appears to belong to him shall be faithfully taken cite
of, and transmitted to St. John's.
W. ROBERTSON.
