We have just heard that a wheat rick, belonging to
a faAlner at Suckburgh, near this borough, was wilfully set on
fire by an incendiary last night, which was in part saved by the
exertions of the neighbours. We are happy to hear the pro-
perty was insured.-0./fbrd.iourisal.

In the small town of Beinstien, the wife of a vine-
dresser has had twins five times since 1828. Towards the end
of January last, she was delivered of three children at a birth,
so that, in seven years, she has had sixteen children, all of
whom are living and in good health. —Galig nani's Messenger.
Extract of a letter front his Majesty's Brigantine
GrzWin, Lieut. James Parlhv, Commander On the :31st of
October, cruising off the Bight of Benin, we discovered a sail,
after a few hours smart chase, and a couple of shots from Long
Tom, she brought to, and proved to be a Spanish .Brigandine,
named the Indegadona having 370 slaves. The second mas-
ter was sent on board with nine men to take her to Sierra
Leone. On the Monday following, at 10 a. m., just as our
delight at having made a beginning had a little subsided, a
second was seen from the mast head, and after a desperate
chase till half-past 5 p.m., when Long Tom again shewed his
teeth, and put the shot close under the stranger's stern. tip
went the Spanish ensign, she hove to, and we found her, on
boarding, a splendiebrigantine, twice as large as the other,
with a long pivot gun, 32 men with 415 slaves. She is called
the Clemente, and is the same vessel that was detained at
Plymoush—(l have seen the papers of the Captain, signed
Hawker, Spanish Vice-Consul') by H. M. S. Pyludes in July
last, on suspicion of piracy. I took charge of her with 9 men,
and arrived safe at Sierra Leone, on /he 19th of November,
where I found the Indagnelona. Both the vessels have been
condemned, and we are now anxiously waiting the arrival of
the Griffin from Prince's Island, where she has landed the
50 prisoners taken out of the two prizes. The number of
slaves in the two vessels is 782." (The above-named vessel,
the Clemente, is the same that was brought into this port by
Capt. Blancklcv, when in command of the Pylades, and
whose suggestitins, if they had been attended to by the
_proper
authorities, would have caused her to be condemned. )—Devon-
