on her passage.
The dispatches for India were finally closed yes.,
terday at the India Housc and the Board of Con-
troul, and sent off last night for Portsmouth, with in-
structions for the ACORN to sail as soon as possible,
but as the wind is adverse, a further delay will take
place.
The following Letter has been received in Town a.
_ _

Livcapoot., SEPT. I.—lt is said here, that a
Gentleman has landed in Wales, who had arrived
from New York, and who states, that the Macedonian
and United States frigates, which were at New Lon-
don, have been destroyed by the British squadron.—
It is also rumoured, that a person authorized by the
American Government has landed in Ireland, and
has brought over terms of Peace from the Republic,
which must be acceptable to this Government."
We copy the following paragraph from the Was-
sou, Courier of Tuesday last :
We hear that a King's cutter, yesterday morning,
standing into Irvine Bay, fired a gun for a boat to
come out. The Commander of the cutter stated,
that the President frigate had been captured by one
of his Majesty's cruisers."
The Admiralty have not received any such intelli-
gence.

We are happy to learn, by the following extract of
a Letter from Malta, that the effect of the plague had
decreased, and that there was a prospect of it entirely
disappearing :
" MALTA, JUNE 29.—We hasten to inform you,
that the plague has greatly subsided in this island;
and we confidently expect that the warm eeason dur-
ing the two first weeks of the following month will
occasion it wholly to disappear."

Saturday evening, ten French prisoners made their
escape from the Sampson prison-ship, opposiis to
Hoo. Nine were shortly after retaken ; the other
one is supposed to be drowned. A marine, belonging
to the Canada, was drowned in attempting to Beim
after them.

We have much satisfaction in noticing a fact which
clearly proves the progressively flourishing state of
Agriculture in New Swath Wales. It has hitherto
been the practice of the Commissioners for victuallipg
his Majesty's Navy, to put on board of all convict-
ships sufficient provisions for the convicts for nine
months after arrival in the colony, but this year the
supply has been reduced to six months.

Wednesday afternoon, as EDWARDS'S Reading
Coach was on its way to London, one of the wheels
came off, near Colnbrook Bridge, which overturned
the vehicle, when the coachman, in jumping off the
box, received considerable injury, particularly by vio-
lently spraining both his legs. None of the passen.
gas received any injury.
