Lurd EXranUTH has the infinite merit of having,
by mere negociation With the Barbary States,
been completely successful in prevailing upon
Them to lib,erare above 2500 Christian Skies,
principally Neapolitane, Sicilians, and Sardinians.
Seventeen hundred had been actnally sent to their
respective homes, and the dungeons were e3pected
to be cleared in a few weeks. As Ettgliih men, we are
proud indeed of this result, tor which this emtlitry
is' infinitely indebted to that very distingnished
Coininander. Dispatches were received froth his
Lordship yesterday.

The Eighteenth of June—a day of memory, of
joys and tears, of mourning and triumph in our
history for ever. This day, twelve months ago,
the destiny, of Europe was decided lay British va-
lour ; the Colossus of the Revolution was finally
overthrown, and, like the Image of which King
NEBUCHADNEZZAK dreamed, broken pieces.
Such a day, thought it cannot be forgotten, de-
mands at least a passing tribute from the Public
Journalist. Let us :remember upon it, with our
dearest affections, the brave who fell and the
gallant heroes, Cri:g survive ; let us waft the
tech o-nation of a peop across to our WEL-
LINGTON and 'his brothers in arms, still em
-
played in protecting what they,
,saved ; let us
do justice to the counsels which led to this great
Victory, as well'asto the valour which achieved
it; and, Above all, let us not neglect our thanks,
giVings,Where they are most due—to that Pro.
vidcnce which prospered in British' the Cause of
the World on the Glorious Eighteenth of 3nne.
