speed, and so strongly armed, the Napoleon," the
Moniteur Adds, " woald offer, in case of war, the cer-
tain means of maintaining the communications of
France with her colony in northern Africa."
The Moniteur says—" After having obtained at
Tripoli the sai.isfaction which it had the mission to
exact, the squadron of evolutions proceeded towards
Tunis, and anchored in the roadsted on the 2d. At
that date the health of the Bey of Turns gave: great
disquietude ; he had been attacked with apoplexy.
Public opinion was occupied with the choice of his
successor- Two pretenders appeared to aspire to the
Government of the Regency ; the brother of the
Bey of TUNIS and his cousin-german. The former
has the sympathies of the Prince ; the latter, according
to the Mussulman law, is the presumptive heir. But
still the succession is not yet opened. The last news
of the BEY was satisfactory; he was expected at the
Goulette. The Commander-in-Chief of the squadron,
on quitting Tunis, will leave the Caton."

The overland letters have just been delivered. They,
however, contain little of interest. Trade was re-
stricted, but money, on the average, was tolerably easy.
There is nothing from the Mauritius by this arrival,
the mail being, unfortunately, missed. Vid Singapore,
accounts from Adelaide to the 7th, and from Port
Philip to the 3d of May, have been received. The ad-
vices
from Sydney are not so late as those previously
received. The South Australian letters are written in
a more encouraging tone, the route established between
that settlement and Mount Alexander having opened a
considerable amount of traffic between the two points.
From

discoveries had been made in some of the districts, and
others were daily anticipated. The price of gold was
quoted from 583. to 60s. per ounce. Provisions conti-
nued to rule at proportionately high prices.
