known for 30 years, for its probity and solidity,
through all Europe. it wens looked upon with
so much confidence, that in 1796 and the follow-
ing years it conducted the money tiansactions of
the I?,nglish and French Governments.
" Wi; learn by our correspoudence, that in all

of a Monarch who always wishes the afflicted to-
participate in the public rejoicings.

Dey of Tunis en.paled a corsair who bad attached
a French ship, ,and restored the vessel to Capt.
Didier who commanded liter, e same Ilebert
also declares, that fort ifiqations have been'thrown
up before Ilona. That at Algiers they' have
mounted the guns taken from the ships upon the
ramparts; and that the Algerines have a consider,
able camp atTremesen, neat the aquedticts of
lia-
bacons which is protected by a
„torrent'. - •
The mountain which looks upon the sea is co.
yard by cenatry seats, having gardens surrounded
by Walls ;. upon several points they have erected
forts. It is to these country houses the Algerines
'intend retiring, it the City is bombarded. They
are all' furnished with water, and the orchards
which surround them are little woods, . which
render them very. agreeable.

The Dey-of Algiers,has not 12,000 regular sol-
.
diersi but if war breaks out be can easily assem-
ble 30 or 40,000. It is thought that such a body
cannot keep the field long, unless they have maga-
zines or provisions for war, as living upon
they would soon exhaust the country which they
occupy. They are
,here strongly prepossessed
against the Eugljsi►, Whom they regard (perhaps
unjustly) as the cause of the ill-treatment' of the
Christians in Africa. • If they had presented them-
selves as masters, it is certain the Regencies
would have liked nothing better than a solid
peace ; conditions might have been prescribed to
them and guarantees taken ; hitt they treated as
it ‘s ere as one power With another, they submitted
to cotributions•---instead of humiliating them,
they increased theit. insolence. Italy suffers much

the more reason to be surprised: that not a word

RETORTED CAPTURE OF THE NVAISINGLIANI
PACKET BY THE ALUERINES.

The following is an extract -all letter receives'
from Cadii by .the'Prince Eriiet 'packet, arrived
at Falnionth with a mail from Lisbon :

" CADtz, dtior adlition to -the cap-
tures nook on our vessels by the insurgent pirates,,
arc :tre.sorry to inention a report of the capture,
of b Mediterranean packet by the Algerines. We
understand the packet delirere'd a mail some tine
since at ycir.place, and afterwards' proceeded to
Gibraltar and got aerneil.
" Tu Mr, Ittimmil, Lkbott."

Tbe packet alluded to is the ITalsingham,. Capt.
But.t.ocx ;—she landed a mail at Lisbon, on her
passage to Gibraltar, and was there armed, and
sailed from thence on the 23d of June fur Malta.

e French Papers of Saturday, and the Mo-
i?fteur, the only per rpnb!islied on Friday, have
arrived since opr I,rit. They have another version
of the Algerine preparations-, and another in-,
stance of tire love of the Dry for the French, and
another slap at the English. This j 3 truly tire-
some repetitioh. Their other articles of intelli-
gence are rather amusing gleanings than interest-
ing news. We, therefore, briefly refer to them.
The Journal eles Debuts quotes the dustrian Ob-
server, a Journal, hi answer to the
Mereure Surveillant, which asks, " Why the Ern-
peror'ALaxANnca had not invited Louts XVIIL
to accede to the Holy ALLJANCR,” that " the
King of FltditiC& Sigiled this celebrated Treaty
when the Allied Monarchs were in NOS." -

The openinK of the Preliminary Conferences at
Frankfort were again postponed -from the sth to
the 12th August, and the Diet itself was expect-
ed to commence on the 19th.

tt is reported at Erankfort that such proposals
will be made on the part of Austria, that the sub-
jects of deliberation may be treated in a speedy
and satisfactory manner, and it is not supposed
that the concerns of Conzress still in arrear can
delay the Diet.

FERDINAND VII. was to return to Madrid on
the 12tb of this month. Ms route was fixed by
Cuenca, Mete, Socedon, Guadalaxara and Alcala,
at each of which plikles his Majesty would sojourn
for a blunt period. His reception by the people
has been enthusiastic. Ills carriage has been
drawn by the populace, and in some places troops
of dancers accompanied ii $o as to give the whole
journey the appearance of a festiyal. Surely, we
repeat, this cannot be the unpopular Tyrant
which some of our Journals devoted to the dis-
confented part of his subjects, fugitives from their
country, represent.

Letters from Antwerp state, that Bills on
London are in great abundance, in consequence of
rise-large sales recently made" in the English Funds
pn account of Foreigner's. The false alarm raised
by our factious Prints had gone abroad th at England
was on the eve of bankruptcy, which bad induced
the people on the Continent to, withdraw, as much
as possible, their money employed in British in-
vestments.
