expectations of being able to beat down the sup-

JAMAICA PAPERS.

KINGSTOrt, MAY 18.—We feel particular gratii•
fication in having it in our power to inform our
leaders that the extent of the mischief supposed
to have been committed at liktrhadoes by tie in-
surgent negroes has been greatly exaggerated.
It now appears, by a letter frwn Sir James
Leith to his Grace the Gover►lor, dated the 26th
ult. that a partial revolt took place on the night
of the 14th alt. in the parishes of. St. Philip,
Christchurch, St. John, and St. George, and
some of the negroes set five to the cane-pieces on
a few estates. 'They were attacked and defeated
on the evening of the 15th, and never afterwards
made any stand against a regular. force. • There
were 383 prisoners in confinement, and Sir James
Leith's only remaining object was directed to- the
discovery of the ringleaders and instigators of the
insurrection, which has been attended with ruinous
rifects to a few persons, but the greatest part of
the ibluutl had sacred no injury.

All the neighbouring Islands from which we
have heard were put under martial law as soon as
they received intelligence of the insurrection in
Barbadnes. The slaves in those Islands and in
Demerara were secretly apprised of the plan laid,
and were only waiting to hear of its success to
follow the example of the negroes.

In the course of their trials some of them con-
fessed that they had takien a dreadful oath, ce-
mented by the taste of human blood, to destroy
the white men, but to preserve the %%tome!) and

already lost their lives. The slaves slyew :much

"'Within three tew days the hat, French re-

was their surprise when the French papers in-
formed them that every thing was tranquil in
France, and that the capital and all 'he towns in
the kingdom had celebrated with enthusiasm the
anniversary of the entrance of the Kin.! into Paris.
Since that period they are sad, for nothing afflicts
them like public

ASCOL (ITALY), Arun. 25.—There have been
seized at the Custom-house some bales of Ml'
chandize, destined for the kingdom rd. Nantes, m
which were found some prohibited political writ-
ing*, and emblems of Ntirm.'s Governintmt. These
merchtmdizes came from Ber.orno, and Ropepir of
Eng,iish of i Fitt ; they consist.of printed goods and
thin► Wick imd red cloths.

The brigands spread ever the country, and
whose presence is so destructive to the safety of
the roads in the Roman tend Neapolitan States,
gave an example of their nudacity by entering the
town i4t niglw by twee, attacking the post at the
atom!! -house, anti carrying nfi t!‘e 'tee*4yer'i
chest, alter having incapacitated the revenue,oBl-

An armed force assembled immediately at the
Civic Guard, and proceeded to arrest sonic of these
Itrigonds, on whom they were
,preptring exc.
en mte prompt justice. There is reason to beliere
that it will soon retch the brigand., and that they
will rind no other asylum than the prisons.

LOUIS XVII. TO HIS CLERGY.

His Majeity lately made the following answer
to an Address from the Clergy of Paris
" I rrceive with satisfaction the assurance 'of
tl:e sentiments of the Metropolitan Chapter and
of the Clergy of my good City of Piaris.
" Providence knows how to dispense, with
equal gOoduess, punishments and rewards. Its
anger 'wait appeased in the months of April and
May, 1814; it herame heavy again in the hem-
eked days, (if which you have spoken.
" Muy these different epochs -be unceasingly
present to our memory, but especially let ns not
forget that the haudot God, even While it strikes,
is paternal.
Let us address to Him those fine words of
the Psalm, of which '; make itty prayer, and
which should be yours...J. Confirm hoc, Dens,
guild operates es intreat the Clergy
of Paris to pray God for his blessing for me."

From the Kingston 'Gnietie of the 30th of
March Gentleman, arrived lately at New
Orleans tram 1109mIla de iiiettra, informs, that
the Republican General Guadaloope Victoria was
attacked at the King's-bridge on the Isth of De
cember, by the van of the Bpanish army, consist-
ing of 5,000 men, in order to force that passage,
and to conduct to Vera Cruz a convoy with eleven
millions of dollars, which Welts detained at Xa-
-44 for several months. The attack was repeat-
ed seven successive days : on the Bth, the Royal-
•
ists attempted to carry by storm the two small
forts which command the pass : they gallantly
reached the glacis, but the terrible fire of the Re-
publicans kille/I great numbers, and compelled
the test to a precipitate retreat. The Republican
army lost only a Captain and a few men. When
our Informant kleparted, General Victoria was pur-
suing the. enenly ; and information had been re-
ceived that a force of 7,000 was approaching from
the-interior, to form a junction with the division
of General Victoria. We learn by Dr. P. Beyris,
who left Baquilla late in December, as also by
the above-mentioned Gentleman, that General
Morelos, now a Member of the Executive, (who
Was reported in the Havannall Gazette as having
been made prisoner at Atenango)-, is at Tchuaran,
the present seat of Congress,
,where he tilscbarvs
the duties of his high office,

l" In THE SUN of To•morrow we shall present our Readers

with the PORTRAITS of SIR It. IVILSON, Captain
IHITTCHINSON, and Mr. BRUCE, front the Print circa-

Wed in Paris. As we here procured an adniiroble Copy

of the Original of this curious production, in our possession,

to be cut In Wood by Mr. BrtAxirroN, and hacc taken Inca-

sures that it shall be printed in a superior mariner, we

trust our friends will be pleased with an effort rather out

of our common practice, but which is solely meant for

their gratification.
