AMERICAN PAPERS.
-ter
(From the Char Teem Courier of Oct. 10.)

PtttAcT.—A letter was received in town by the
schooner Eliza, from 'Alia:mg:is, giving an account
of the capture and robbery of three vessels near the
entrance of that harbour, by a band of ruffians who
had fitted out a barge for that purpose. The ves-
sels ivere the brig John, Captain Smit:tof Bristol
. I.) biaind to Matanzas, the Captuiktuid crew
all murdered, and the vessel burnt; schooner Jli/o,
also of Bristol, bound to Matarzas, Captain and
two of the crew murdered, and vessel ordered oil';
and sloop Co&dor, of Rhode island, the crew most
unmereitidly beaten, the vessel plundered of every
thing valuable, and set on fire. Fortunately the
crew had sufficient strength left to save themselves in
the boat, and returned to Matanzas, whence the sloop
had sailed but a short period previous. Three boats
were armed by the Americans in port, who went in
pursuit of the villains, but returned after an unsuc-
cessful search of SG hours. The piratical boat was
manned by nine men, one of whom was a Portu-
guese, six Spaniards, and two Englishmen, and was
equipped at Matanzas.
LATEST FROM 1.174A0--liis Britannic Majesty's
frigate Owen Glendower arrived at Valparaiso, in
ten days from Lima, on the 16th July, bringing in-
telligence that the armistice still continued. It was
also reported, that it was impossible lig the city to
hold out a month after the re-commencement of
hostilities.

A passenger in the Chcstpcake states, that Lord
Cochrane had the second time seized, in the port
of Arico, a considerable sum of money (100,000
dollars) belonging to the brig Ilfacedoniwa, Captain
Smith, of Boston, last from Canton, under the pre.
text of breach of blockade, and had ordered the brig
to sea under command of the Lieutenant, Captain
Smith remaining on shore. Sir T. Hardy continued
to protest against the coast blockade.
Colonel Callava, Ex-Governor of Nl:est Florida,
has published in the New Orleans paper a feeling
remonstrance against the treatment received front
Governor Jackson, his successor in that office.—
He asserts that the public papers, which of right
ought to be, had been given up to the Americans;
awt that on any respectful application fr,im Gover-
nor Jackson as to what papers he required, they
should have been delivered. He first heard of the
demand at a party at Colonel Brock's, from whence
he retired through indisposition. On his return
home he was, atter ineffectual remonstrances, taken
from his bed to a house, where he found Governor
Jackson, who, in a short time, committed kun to
gaol, his house, furniture, money, &e. being con-
signed to the cote of the soldiery. In the mean
time his house was searched, and the papers taken
away.

A Russian captain, lately returned from Persia,
mentioned to u friend in Astraetn, that when he
was in that country he happened one day to go into
the house of a native, where he was surprised to
find twenty or thirty Persians assembled, and list-
ening with attention to one who was reading a book.
They no sooner noticed the stranger than the book
was laid aside and concealed, and it was with some
difficulty that ha could prevail on them to tell him
what the book was. At last they informed him that
it was the New Testament, and said the reason why
they endeavoured to conceal it %VW, that they were
not permitted to read it publicly.

Those that advised the dismissal of Sir Robert
Wilson tu-e now concerned that they ever gave such
advice. The ministerial papers have been indefii-
tigable in their endeavours to discourage the sub-
scriptions, but they have completely faded in pro-
ducing any ellixt aga►nst the popular feeling of the
country. The sunscript ions How from all quarters,
and in fact bum all parties, ha it is inconsistent with
ihitish tech:lg to ciaidetun any individual without
being put on Isis trial, and heard in his dett.tice.—

EXTENSIVII RODAERY IN FNANCV.--•The carriage
conveying the money fur the Receiver General's
Office, Bergerac, in the department of Dordwgne,
was attacked, at eleven o'clock in the forenoon of the
Ist instant, near the bridge of St. Mame; on the
road from Pcrigueux to Bergerac, by a lrand of
armed robbers. The carriage was escorted by two
gendarmes, and whet' it arrived at a place ealled
" the Dead Man's Heap," a person, masked, pre-
sented himself befirre the driver, and taking aim at
him, ordered him to stop, declaring at the same time
to the gendarmes, that if they made any resistance,
they should be put to death. Notwithstanding this
menace, the gendarmes ordered the driver to pro-
ceed; but immediately a side-fire from behind the
hedges .which skirt the, road, disabled them both.
One ofthem fell epastac spot, riddled with balls,
and his horse lills3h:fthe other, though severely
wounded, as well, set on before 0) call
fur assistance. T. - carried off the vehicle,
and compelled the nssist them in placing
the three chests whiell'it Contained on the ground.
They broke one of. them open with a hatchet, and
put the bags which were in it into wallets with
which they were furnished. They carried the se-
mud chest into the maxi, and broke it open also;
but the dread of being surprised hindered .heir from
carrying off all the money which it contained, and
deteimmed them to take to flight. Soon after the
inhabitants of the neighbouring cummuns, informed
by the tocsin, which the local authorities caused to
be sounded the moment they heard of the event, as-
sembled in pullikit of the robbers, but all their
search was fruitless, as was that of the gendarmes
who joined in pursuit a short time after. They have
as yet been unable to apprehend any one, but the
search continues with activity, and there is reason to
hope that at least, front some clue obtained, they
will succeed in discovering traces of them, and in
securing them. The three cheats, when they left
Bergerac, contained 42,826 francs, 75 cents. Out of
that sum the robbers carried oil 23,601. francs, 30
cents. One of the chests remained untouched.

The Junta of Representatives of Buenos Ayres
passed u decree on the 21st of August, directing
that a new tariff; to operate from the beginning of
the year 1822, shall be published as speedily as pos-
sible, and making in the mean time certain regula-
tions on the custom-house duties. Among these is
one which provides that the import duties shall in
the mean time remain as in a tbrmer tariff; but
afterwards exceptions are made to the tidlowing
effect, viz : —Spirits to pay 5.2 dollars per pipe of ti
barrels, provided the strength does not exceed 24
degrees, increasing the duty in proportion to the
strength of the spirit : wine, 42 dollars ; vinegar
30 tobacco of Paroguay, 2 dollars per arroba ;
black or coloured tobacco of Brazil, and other foreign
tobacco, 4 dollars the arroba sugar I dollar. The
following articles are exempted from every kind of
duty, viz gums, wool, hair, and dying-stuffs, for
the,manufacture of hats, molasses and honey for the
manufacture of spirits; and all kinds of utensils
and machines used in the manufactures oldie coun-
try. The articles which do not pay general duties
arc also exempted from those which relate to the
foreign branches. Silver in specie pays on expor-
tation 3 per cent. If in bullion or worked, 4 per
cent. Gold in specie pays 1 per cent.
Cotta, OCT. 13.—Sir Thomas Maitland arrived
at Zante, from Malta, on the 28th ult., and sailed
from thence two days atter for Cephalonia, where,
for what cause is not known, he put under arrest the
Bishop of Cephalonia,and caused him to be conveyed
on board the ship in which he himself was. We are
expecting here, with same anxiety, the visit of Sir
Thomas Maitland, that we may learn the destiny of
the petitioners, who have constantly remained under
close confinement, notwithstanding the statement
published by (edictal Adam in the lonian Gazette,
that the persons arrested should be treated with
every possible indulgence. In Zante two respecta-
ble ecclesiastics have been arrested, fhr refusing to
sign a paper presented to them by the Protupapa.—
The rigour with which the government of the
islands is conducted is extreme, and every exertion
is making to perplex the operations of the Greeks in
the Morea. General Adam will succeed Colonel
Hawkey iu the post of commandant at Zante, on ac-
count of the importance of that station in relation
to the affairs of Greece. la the Murea and in Ito-
melia the Greeks eflixt prodigies of valour in detail,
but are deficient in all things necessary for the con-
duct of great operations. The Turks commit
dreadful atrocities on those Greeks who have the
misfortune to fall into their hands.

A few days ago, at ltanshaw, near Allerton
Paik, liork.;latre, a hawk was observed pursuing a
sky-lurk, and when the affrighted warbler appeared
to have little or no chance of escaping from
its rapacious fm, it fortunately sought refuge in the
house of Mr. Puvin, at Allerton Park, and suilered
Mrs. Pavia to take it in her hand and caress it.--
After remaining on the arm of its fair protector for
a short time, the hawk disappeared, and the lark
Icon after took wing, and spiiihtly soared aloft.
