in the Braiils, but was captured by api ivateer
tinder the Orietoal fluv,, fitted out at St. Thomas's
by an Englishman of the name of Mason, and
commanded by an American named Ford, or
Walker, who sailed under a commission purchased
from Artigas. On hoard of the San Antonio there
had been 54 slaves, eleven of whom died on the
passage ; there were also some dry goods, of
British manufacture, supposed to have been plun-
dered from different vessels : The slaves had been
taken out of a Spanish Goineaman. There was
not a single paper found on board, but two white
men were secured on suspicion of piracy. Four
of her people escaped in a boat belonging to the
ship Middlesex, lying at Oracabessa, one of whom
was afteresattlr taken. Thee crew, it was said,
were all natives of Great Britain, with the excep-
tion of the two Portuguese, found in the San
Antonio. Every one on board were in the most
miserable state from the want of food and water.
The negroes had been landed, but one of them
died soon after. The Prize-Master said, that he
had endeavoured, but could not eel to windward,
and was latterly making for the Caymanas.

DESTRUCTIVE FIRE
AT THE SRATOYSIR JuHN LEICESTER, IN CHRSHIVIC.

We sincerely regret to state the unfortunate and
greatly to be deplored occurrence. of part of the
magnificent spat of that truly worthy and 'olives--
sally respi'cted character, Sir JOHN LEICESTER, at
Tat ley, in Cheshire, having, in the course of Fri-
day night last, been consumed by fire. with the
whole of the extensive offices of every description.
An express annotmcing this lamentable fact reach-
ed Liverpool on Saturday Ids!, near which place
Sir JOHN and his amiable Lady- have for some
weeks resided, in consequence of the sea stir being
prescribed for the benefit of her Ladyship's health
Our Correspondetit informs ii , that such %vas the
destructive force of the flones, that nothing but
the extraordinary and unprecedented exertions of
the neighbouring tenantry, made at the imminent
risk of their lives, could have saved the whole of
the splendid mansion from falling a prey to the
fury of the devouring element, From, what cause
the fire originated is at present unknown ; but
front the great and well•merited popularity of S:e
JOHN among all ranks, there is not even the
slightest groudd for surmise that an event which
is so deeply deplored by the whole neighbour-
hood could have arken from any thing else than
mere accident.—(Morning Post.)

CAUTION TO BATHERS.—TWO melancholy ElC-
cifients happened on Saturday, which may be
fairly attributed to the fatal effects of immersion
in cold water when the body is more than usually
heated in the pregent WElrtm kveather. of the
workmen at Cleland Iron Works, Glasg3w,
stripped ptnii plunged into the reservoir, and did
not again appear until he was taken out lifeless.
A young man was drowned about the same time
in the Clyde, near Blantyre Works, occasioned.
in %II probability, by the same cause.—(Edinburgh
