running her forecastle guns aft, without, howevrr, suffering
coy damage. She will leave on Saturday next for England,
calling at Gibraltar, as well as the Implacable and Hast-
ings. The latter will touch at Tarragona for the remainder
of the copper, &c saved from the wreck of the Tribune.

there the whole of the summer, cr, at any rate, until such time
as the differences with the United States of America are
brought to a settlement.

bill of health touching the breach of quarantine by the Otto-
man seamen. The Neapolitan Government has been more
liberal, having laid on no quarantine, and the Austrian boards
of health of Venice and Trieste have not imposed any addi-
tional in consequence of the arrival of the Castor infected with
