arrived at Gibraltar from that Prefideney.

AMERICAN JOURNALS.
We have received American Papers to-the :Bth of
May.—They Rate, that Capt. WHivar, of the Lean-
der. was arrefted on his arrival at Halifax, by Capt.
BtRRITORD, the Commanding Officer, in confequence
of the death of Plum!, the American feaman. The
authority on which this news reßs is not Rated.
The fame papers Rate, that General MIRANDA has
made an eafy cnnquell of the Province of Caracas,
and that he had been joined by fax Britilh frigates,
with 6000 troops The latter part of this flatement
requires confirmation, and the more In as we find in
the American papers, a long detail of legal proceed.
ings againft Mr. OGDAN, a Merchant in New York,
for the part he took in fitting out the Expedition ; and
alfo a Memorial, prefented by him to Congrefa on the
occafion, in which-he Rates, that though Mattoon*
had applied to the Britith Government, and had at
one time lirong hopes that he w. old receive its
affillance ; he had at !alt quitted England in del-
pair of receiving that aid which he afterwards ob-
tained from Mr. Jtrrkesow and other rerfons in office
in America. He does not charge them with having
fupported the plan in their official charafters, but
maintains, char in their private capacity they did ;

•
and he complains loudly of his beingtoade the viiim
of the change that had fines taken place in the poli-
tical circumllances of America. It will bereMembered
that at the time of the fitting out of this armamenr, the
United States confidered themfelves as on the eve of a
war with Spain, and it might then have7been counted
good policy to favour the enterprize. We regret that
our limits do not allow us this day to lay Mr. 00-
DIN'S Memorial before our Readers. Ever, If
abridged, it will occupy upwards of three of our co.
lumps. We (hall lay it before our Readers tomorrow,
if penile.

We fhould not, for own parts, be much furprifed
to hear of MIRANDA being foto joined by a Nall
&kill force. When Spain joins with France in en.
deavouring to but out our commerce from the Con-
tinent of Europe, found policy Items to demand that
our Government fhould exert itfelf to, open up ixew
markets for our manufattures. Could any thing bet.
ter anfwer fuch an end than the emancipation, which
to us would be of infinitely more value than the
conctneft, of Spanifh America?

We are now with fome anxiety looking out fur ac-
counts of die expedition which Come time ago failed
from the Cape. From the known abilities of the
Commanders, our expeetations are very high indeed.
Perhaps no man in the navy is fo well acquainted
with the mode of co-operating with troops as Sir
Holes Poimma ; and there is not a more dalbing Of-
ficer in the army than General Bealsvortio; he ranks
with our Mooass, our CRAIOS, and S►twcxu. From
a moil valuable Correfpondent whom we have In this
expedition, we can satire to our Readers, the radial
and, moR authentic accounts.

The late reduaion df Staff, on The 34th of htii

It is now determined that the 16th, General Hat-
covav's Regiment, and not the 15th Dragoons, tates

are to be relieved at Saliibury by that very fine Regi-
ment the 14th Dragoon% commanded by Colonel
Hawaii', now at Hounflow. Among military men,

Regiment.

confidertble tittle been embarked at Cork for foreign

were deßined for Malta, at another for Gibraltar,
and at another to reinforce Sir Jowls Mooa as's army
in Sicily.
