" FRANKFORT, Aut. 25.—Yestrrday morning
the Hereditary Prince and Princess of Hesse
Homburg, Prince Louis, Prince Gustavus, and
his consort, passed through here to proceed to
Detraistadt, on a visit to the Grand Duke and
Duchess of Hesse. They returned in the evening
to Romberg.
" BERLIN, Aut 18.—The arrival of the gm-
peror of Russia in this cal;ital is now fixed for
the 4th of September. His Imperial Majesty
will make only a sh.rt stay, ail he wishes to prO-
centl on to Weimar, to pass 'time days with his

16ter."

This morning we received New tnk,Papets to
the 11th alt. Quebec to the 12th, Charleston to
the 2d, Baltimore to the. 10th,- and Philadelphia
to the 10, h.—The following are Extracts:—
, " HALIFAX, Jut.* 29.—0 f the eight vessels
detected fishing on the coast of Nova Scotia, and
sent into this Port for adjudication, five were I,be•
rated on Friday last, but with the full understand-
ing that the indulgence would not again be granted
to them. A cettifleate to that effect was endorsed
.
upon their registers, and the Captains requested
to make it as public as possible for the infot niation
of the Subjects of the United States engaged in
the Fisheries. The remaining three eliscilVered
fishing in Harbours to the Eastward of liniifax
are now libelled, and will shortly be brought ro
trial in the Court of Vice Admiralty; where we
have no doubt they will be condemned. The
lenity thus shown by Rear-Admit al Sir DAVID
MILNE to the vessels which he has liberated. must.
convince the Government of the United States of
the strong desire he feels to preserve the harmony
which at present happily subsists between Great
Britain and the United States ; and we sincerely.
hope will so operate as to deter for the future
American vessels from committing similar tres,
passes. At the s.ime time, his Majesty's Subjects,
in his North Ante' ican Dominions, must be satis-
fied with the Admiral's determination to guard
from every infringement and violation those rights
to the Fisheries which exclusively attach to them."

SEVERE ENGAGEMENT.

" Captain Buss, of the schooners Sanford and
William, from Tenetiffe, informs, that
,on the
Mb of June, in lat. 28. and long. 28. he spoke
Ids Britannic Majesty's ship Indian, sloop of war,
from London, hound to Jamaica, laden very deep
with provisions. The Captain of the Indian
said, that two days previous be engaged a
Pirate, and bad a very severe engagement,
which evidently appeared from the situation which
she was in, her sails and spars being flinch in-
jured. He further informed, that the pirate
made three attempts to board him, but was drive"
back. The sloop of war lost better than half her
crew : the pirate's loss of men not known, but
supposed to be much greater. The pirate was
much superior in force and bulk, and sailed faster
than the Indian, which, after a tong combat, had
the good fortune to beat her off : she hauled her
wind and stood to the S. W., being very much
disabled.

HAVANNAR, JULY 17.—We have received
information by tl►e schooner Mary Ann, just ar-
rived from Cadiz ; the Captain of which states,
that he received a Note from the American Consul
the day he left, stating that the Floridas were
ceded to the American Government by the Spanish
Government."
