ADULTERATED PEPPEit..—The informations
which the Excise had caused to he laid before-twelve grocers
residing at Portaea and lialfway.houses, for having adulterated
pepper in their possession, came on (by adjournment) to be
heard on Thursday last, before James Carter, Esq. Mayer, and
Daniel Howard, Lsq. two of his Majesty's Justices fur this bo-
rough ; when it appeared in evidence, that the article in ques-
tion had been bought in the fair way of trade, was regularly
permitted from London to the several persons prosecoted, lira
taken into their stock in the accustomed way by the Excise Of-
ficers at Portsmouth ; that the parties, consequently, were net
aware in the transaction of any infringement of the Law. It
being, however, clearly proved by Mr. Hubert, a chemist from
London (under the special employ of the Board of Excise), and
his analysis produced, that the pepper in question was en edul.
terated article, inasmuch as it contained but a small portion of
chillies, the remainder parts being composed of the ground shell
of some seed and the farina of some other seed (but what these
ctd
seeds were he was unable to affirm). The offence was proved,
and the partiesconvicted accordingly ; but under the peculiar

The ship-of-war fitting out. at Valparaiso to
join, the maritime force of Peru had not yet sailed
from that port in the middle of September, but
the equipment of these vessels was currying on
with redoubled ardour since the appearance of the
Asia. To the 15th of that mouth the elections
were to take place in Santiago, the capital, for
deputies to the new Congress convoked by the
Directory, which was to meet at Quillota, a
city of inferior .rank, which has, however, 10,000
inhabitants. Private letters worthy of implicit
credit cay, that the Liberal party will certainly
triumph hi the elections. Senor Zanartu has
been appointed Minister Plenipotentiary to the
'United States of North Americo, in the room of
Senor Campion, who has been hindered by ill
ite,ilth from proceeding on that mission.
