Saturday fome packets of Chatlellort, Virginia., and
Baltimore papers, reached us, bit they do not eurnifh
any information of moment. The peopie.of America
are taught to tepee, that our Government will con-
cede err. ry thing to !heir menace A; and that the vs.
riots. point. in dirciffion have been adjufted to the
honour end 'Maas of the United States.
Saturday Government received fome dirpatches
from Sir ALIZANDIII COCKIL•NI, by the GIT3III,
&holier, attired at Porttmouth, hut they are dated
the igth June, and confequently bring nothing new.
The
.Barbadoes papers mention the refaifing.of Mt-
tor the C4IACCAt, on the acith of June i but it
is not true that he was accompanied by any Micah
(hips of wax. He intended, it ii however f,,id,.xn touch
at Trinidad, for the purport of colleaing fupplies.
Saturday a number of thin letters from the Wee
Indies were receives' at the Pull Office, but none of
taw date than Adthiral Cocna•te a's dirpatches.
Ettfati of a letter dared Barbadnes, June at
General Mutannet.—* Our attention is again tutncd
towards the pry jeet of this eminent officer, th eman

South America from the yoke of Spain. fle yeller-

arrived here with him, left Carlifle Bay for Trinidad,
where he makes a thort Am for the further augmeni
Union of his means, Area y rendered, it not eaten
Seely formidable, at kart adequate to the prupntes of
Me undertaking. We are linguine of his (octets, as
well from the laudable objeß which he aims r n obtain,
M from the countenance and affittance that has been
Worded him on the part of our Government ; and
we cannot but applaud the adoption which he made
eta sew and aprefriatejag, upon getting under way,
Minced of the Ifrpoifirrin colours, which his vetfel at
Ore wore. While engaged in the caulk of hternanity
sod civilization, and not in that of hi, nt'in perl'nat'
ambition and aggrandiroment, may ruccas attend
hie noble efforts !"
Sown uLAR incident which excited
much curiofity occurred lall Thurld ty at %Vermouth.
Mrs. Bannevv, of Cadbury, in Sennett-tiente, ac-
companied Mr. Bill•TIOWAY Ts in his diving machine,
and remained under water with him toter minutes.
Previous to her trip the evinced great courage, and
was g d nn her afcent by the cheering plaudits of
a very numerous configure of people. Mrs. Ban.

• EAST biota troces.—Friday the bxfon, which,
if not Itrialy to be galled a part, mud at lean be
confidered as a 171611 valuable appendage to. the
above mentioned eitenfive, and, we may fairly fay,
magnificent :corks, was opened for the fiat time tot
the entrance of (hipping.
The depth of water was at fira abnnt 25 feet, but
it was afterwards reduced to about 21 feet in the
entrance Lock. At twenty minutes before two
O'clock the maw gate was thrown open, and the Tri-
nity yacht, Captain Pouvree, was warped into the
baron, nith her topfail yards pointed ro the wind; and
in the courfe of a few minutes the was moored up at
the fecund Lock nr entrance to the Great Dock.

The inland body of water after the gates were
(btu, was übfsrvest to be Ru above the level of the
tide in the Thames, but its unlace was in a few mi-
nutes lowered a fcconJ time. The Earl Camden, on
account of her having beat off a French 7a. was to
have bad the honour of being tie firtl of the Com-
pany's (hips that entered the Hsh n ; but flue did not
come up the River in Infficient time, and the Admi•
ral Gardner, Captain Sacs-N.:I'LL, which had fought
a battle of three hours elide fight with a 26 gun pri-
vateer, and beat her off, was the fir ft that entered within
the works of the Hon. Company to which fhe belonged.
A number flood by with wooden fenders, to proteft the
fhip's fide from injury in cafe of her (winging round
too much, or accidentally corning in contat with any
part of the works, but there was little o► noocc.lion
for this precaution. The wind was favourable, blow-
ing almult right acrofs from Eall Greenwich, the op.
potite bank of the River ; and the different guys and
warping lines were very judicioully managed, and
the works were in a Rate of high perteftirm. At about
twenty minutes after two Ile was moored high op in
the Satan elude aliens of the Triaity yacht.
