Hon. Company's cruiser. Ernaud bad been dispatcl4 from
Bombay to Cochin, to await his Lordship's arrival. We hear
by the Thais, Jost cone in from Kedgeree (CalcuttC, that
the free traders Sherburne, Fame, Baring, and Exmouth, for
London, and the True 13titon, for Live?onl, had nearly com-
pleted their cargoes, and were expected to sail for England
early in the presemt month. The ships in these road are—
Acorn (sails to-morrow for England), Elk, Thais, Tyne, and
Termagant : the Alpheus and Lcda are at Trincomalee; the
Iterolutionaire is at Bombay."

The Acorn sailed from the Cape of Good Hope on the 10th,
and St. Helena on the aOth July. Colonel H. Keating, for-
merly Clovernor of the Isle of Bourbon, come bothe in her.
This Officer had a long interview with Buonaparte, whilst
the Acorn lay at St—Helena. Buonaparte,, it wont& ap-
pear, was unlaced to break through his accustomed re-
straints upon this occasion, from a desire of being made
acquainted with the character and condition of several per-
sons whom he had banished to Bourbon, and who resided
thine under Colonel Kratiog's Government. It was, likewise
the last hold of the French in the East ; apd upon these
subjects Buonaparte totered into conversation with great
freedom, and much apparent interest. He appears now to
have established himself in a quiescent, methodical way
of living : he sees no company, and never goes beyond his
interior bounds. Before Colonel Keating. left him, be was
diSpbs4 to confide to him the task of explanation between
Sir Iludsou Lowe and himself, regarding several regulations
which Sir Hudson bad ordered since he took upon him
the Government of the Island. The explanations led
to as much mutual satisfaction as the nature of the
case would permit : liter musty Boonaparte was very
wrath with Sir Hudson. Madame Bertrand bad been
notch :affected upon bearing of the condemnation of her
husband to death by the French Governiptent., It wonld
prevent her from visiting Europe, as sbe had. intended, fur
the education of her children: and she made a particular
. ,
request, that permission Might be obtained for a French
female servant, who lived with her at Elba, to be tent out to
her. Sir Pulleney Malcolm was about to proceed in the
Newcastle to the Cape of Good Hope,. leasing Capt.Staufell,
of the Phaeton, in charge of the ships at the Isiend: the New-
castle', Phaeton, and Griffin were lying there. The Falmouth,
Captain posting, had arrived out, and gorse on to 'the Cape.
The Zephyr had sailed fer South America, with some expla-
natory dispatches to the Governortnts there, megarding any
Spanish and Portuguese vessels that ratty visit St. Helena.—
The Orontes and Mosquito were on their way to the Mauri.
taus, to relieve the Icarus.

A few days before the Acorn left St, fret.ena
a fire broke out in IitIONAPARTIeS house, whirl►
threatened the total destruction of the whole
building ; but by prompt and intrepid means the
flames were confined to the loom, the interior of
which► was totally consumed. It was' supposed
to have been occasioned by accident.
