By advices from Newfoundland, so late as the 6th
inst. we learn that the colony is in a state of extreme
distress. Among the lower orders, it is said, there
are few able to support themselves : the members of
the opulent part of the community are so small, that
relief was impracticable. Many, it was feared, must
perish for want, Meetings of the inhabitants had been
Ltld fin. the purpose of raising subscriptions, and the
tiovcrnor had intimated to them that a sum. equal to
the whole raised by the colonists would be contributed
by the Government. Memorials have been sent to
Liglantl to claim the interposition of the Legislature.
