By the Favourite, Alicia, which on Friday ar-

which communicate the diftrelling intelligence,
that the fpirit of infurreaion amongft the Blacks,
which originating at St. Domingo, has partially
extended itfelf over the Weftern Archipelago, late-

ly bnrl inm adion at Grenada. Such, lint?cre:
were the prompt ani energetic mcafures of ti.:
Government, that the infurgtnts were fin rottini..ir
many of them were made prifuners, and ;lime cr
the principals wet.: executed.
Previous to their defeat they were guilty of Gm.:
wanton .excelres, which fufficiently linseed what
would have been the confequences had they Inc.
cceded. The damage done is, however, fo
that this revolt would be matter of but flight con-
sideration, was it not connected with that fystern
of infurredion which unhappily prevails, and
which implicates the fafety of all Weft Indian
property.
On the night of the sth of January, the town of
Falmouth, in Jamaica, narrowly efcaped
; it was dark, and blew frefli, when a pilot on
going home about twelve o'clock, difcovered a
houfe to be taking fire ; it was a fpirit fliop, to
windward of the town, where the shutters had
been broken, and a quantity of burning rags thurft
throlitli, which it was fuppofed would foon com-
municate to the fpirits, of which there was a large
quantity ; feveral merchants fibres were dole to
the leeward of the houfe, and the town fo nearly
adjoining, that' half an hour longer would have in-
volved die whole in flames. One hundred pounds
reward has been offered for the difcovery of the
diabolical incendiaries, and detachments of infan-
try nightly patrole the ttreets, and conduit to the
Guard-houfe all perfons whom they meet after
ten o'clock at night, who do not give a good :le-
', count of themfelves.

Another attempt was made on the 3d ult. to
burn the town of Bolton, happily without fuccefs.

by the Legiikture of New York, but they were not

The PRESIDENT of the United States, in a mef-
fige to Congiefs on the 27th of January, recom-
mended an extenfion of the plan for civilizing the
back Indians, by the increafe of trading houfes,
&c. and by preventing fpirituous liquors from
being fent amongft them. It likewife recommend-
ed, that blacks conviaed of murdering whites

On Saturday, via Jamaica, letters Were received
from Cape Francoife, to the 14. th January, which
remove any doubt that we might have previoufly
entertained of.the condua which Too ss AIIt T had
prefcribed to himfelf on the arrival of the French
espediton.
The letters received contain extra& from a Pro-
clamation which he had partially publiffied ; in
this he fags, he underftands that evil-difpofed peo-
ple had fpread a report that France had appointed
a powerful force for the purpok of dearcying him
and his officers, and to reftore flavery ; but that
he never could give credit to it, as himfelf and his
people had been continually fighting for the prof-
perky of the Colony : " A good child," rays the
Negro Chief, " is all fubmiffion and obedience to
his parent ; but if that parent is fo unnatural as to
Peek the cleftruaion of his child, the child muff put
his vengeance in the hands of GOD. If 1 muff die,
I will die like a foldier of honour—l fear no mat..."

He concludes an addrefs, ttrongly appealing. to
the paflions of his followers, with an exhortation
that they will vanquifh, or die at their polls.
After a tedious negotiation of two months, a
treaty was concluded withToussalNr by the Lie-
utenant Governor of Jamaica, on the morning of
the day on which the latter received advice of the
figning of Preliminaries of Peace between Great
Britain and France. General NuGENT, in confe-
quence, fent to acquaint Toussaivr's agents of
the circumflance, which neceffarily rendered void
their new convention, and intimated a with that
they should immediately I:ave Jamaica, announc-
ing that he had recalled the Britith P,zfident at
Cape Francois, although, at the application of the
Englith merchants there, the period of his conti-
nuance was prolonged to the loth of January..
TOUSSAINT, on being apprifed of thefe circum-
fiances, accufed the Englith of breach of faith, ob-
ferving that they coalefced with France for the
purpo?e of dettroying him.—He, however, fhortly
after, iffued a Proclamation promiting protedion
to firth Britith veffels as might trade to St. Domin-
go, but Governor NUCFAT fcrupuloufly avoiding
any colour of offence to France, interdicted all in-
tercourfe, being fudiciently informed of the hollile
intentions of the black General towards the mother
• country.
At the date of the letters from Jamaica (the
22d of January) no intelligence had been received
there of the arrival of the French expedition in
thole leas.

The difpatches for China, by the GLATTON and
BRUNSWICK, were finally doled at the Batt India
Houle on Saturday, and &live! ed to their re-

norcans, in order to avoid the American frigates
which were cruizing for them. The cirenmilance
is officially aliened by the American Conful at
Alicant, and has excited confiderable offence in the
United States.
