on Min, nor iooketi. for any. -I?Arrei is in Englark!,
whither he went co look for Crawley ; no inquiry
was made for Crawley on the night of the 17th.

Mr. Hows corroborated Dr. Elwood's evidence,
and added, that'he li•ad observed during his visit on
the r7th of February, that the house and street
were unusually silent.
The Postmaster of NeWry was produced, to prove
that Crawley passed under a feigned name at Newry
before he was apprehended.
Alderman AleXander was called to prove ex-
pressions used by the Prisoner on his examination,
which, after much argument at the Bar respe&ing
.their being admitted in evidence, appeared to be,
that he 'considered himself in an auk'ward situation ;
and that upon some suggestion of accomplices, he
declared he had no accomplice.
Messrs. Harris and Bryan, Attorneys, of great
reputation, to whom the Prisoner had served his
clerkship, Dr. Elwood (the Witness), and other
persons, gave the Prisoner a very high charaeter.
The Learned Judge delivered a serious and mi-
nute charge to the Jury, who retired for about ten
minutes, and returned a Verdid of—Guilty.
Sentence of death• was then pronounced upon the
Prisoner, and execution' awarded for Friday.
The unhappy man conduled himself during the
whole trial with perfect composyre, and appeared
entirely master of himself, insomuch that when an
affidavit for putting off his trial was handed him,
he revised, corre&eci, arid altered ‘it as he iliought
.necessary, without the Nast apparent agitaoon.

. The 'Dispatches for China, by the Glatton and
Brunswick, were finally closed at the East India

After a tedious Negotiation of two months, a
Treaty was 'concluded with TottssAlNT by the
Lieutenant Governor of Jamaica, on the morning of
the day on which the latter
,received advice of the
signing of PreTiminaries of Peace betw'een Great
Britain and France. General NUCENT, in conse-
quence, sent to acquaint ToussArtres agents of the
"circumstance, which necessarily rendered void their
new Convention, and intimated a wish that
.they
should immediately le/ve Jamaica, announcing that,
he had re-called the British Resident at Cape-Fran-
cois, although at the application of the English
Merchants there, the period of his continuance was
prolonged to the loth janu::ry.

TOUSSAINT, on, being apprized of these,circun,
stances, accused the English of breach offaith,
serving that they coalesced with. France for the
purpose of destroying him. He, however, shortly
after, issued a Proclamation promising proteelion
to such British Vessels as might trade to St. Do-
mingo ; but Governor NUGENT scrupulously avoid-
ing any colour of offence to France, interdiacd all
intercourse, being sufficiently informed of the hos-
tile intentions of the Black General tOwards the
Mother Country.

TotrssAnn says in his. Prpclamation respeaing
the: French Expedition, he uncle:studs that evil dis-
posed people-had spread a .report 'that France had"
appointed a powezful Force for the purpose -of de-
„stroying him and his Officers, and to restore Slave.
ry ;
.but that he never could give credit to it, as
himself and his r..ople had been continually fighting
for the;prosperiry of the colony. " A good child,"
says the Negro Chief, " is all submission and obe-
dience to.bis parent; bUt if that parent is so unna•
tural as to seek the destruaion of his child, the
child must put his vengeance in the hands of God.
mLIA die, I will die like a soldier of honour—
I fear .no man."
He concludes an address,
_strongly appealing to
the passions of hiS followers, with an exhortation
that they will vanquish, or die at theirposts.
The report of the death of TOUSSAI NT, the Black
Govern& of St. Domingo, has been contradiaed in
the American papers.--The New York Gazette, of
the Ist of Feb. says, " Capt. BUREANICs_ (arrived
. here yesterday in a short passage from Port Repub-
lican) mentions that he saw General TOUSSAMT on
the 13th of January at that place, in good health."
Three Tripolin cruizers are stated to have sailed
from Mahon under English colours, furnished with
English documents, and , manned with Minorcans,
in order to avoid the American frigates which
were cruizing for them.---The circumstance is offs.
cially asserted by the American ConsuLat Alicant,
and has excited considerable offence in the United
States.. :

By the Favourite, AIKIN, which on Friday ar-
rived in the Downs, we received letters. from
Grenada, dated the 17th January, which communi-
cate' the distressing intelligence, that the, spirit of
insurrealon amongst the Blacks, which-originating
at St: Domingo, has partially extended itself over
the Western Archipelago, lately burst into anion
at Grenada.—Such, however, were the prompt and
energetic measures of the Government, , that the
Insurgents Were surrounded, many of them ,were
made. prisoners, and some of the principals were
executed. Previous to their defeat they were guilty
of some'wanton excesses; which sufficiently spewed
what would have been the. consequences had they
succeeded.—The damage done is, however .so tri-
vial, that this revolt would he matter of but slight
consideration, was it not connected with' that sys-
tem of insurreaion which unhappily prevails; and.
which implicates the safety of all West India pro-
perty. ~ . • :
' - The President of the'United States, in a message
,
to Congress on the 27th of January, recommended
• an extension of the plan for civilizing thc back ITS.
dians, by the increase of trading houses, &c. and
by preventing spirituoUs liquors from being sent
amongst them. It likewise recommended, that
blacks convicted of murdering whites should be
shot instead of hanged, the Indians having- such
prejudice to this mode of execution, th..t they fie-
' quentiy screened a culprit whom they would other-
- wise surrender.
Another attempt was made on the 3d ult. to burn
the town of Boston, happily without success. ,
