KINGSTON, JAMAICA. JTYLr si.

We have repeatedly had occasion to notice the int-
proper conduct of the Carthagenran privateers, not f
from a desire to reflect on that Covernnsent, but with
the intention of reprobating and endeavouring to put
down all piratical acts. Nothing has, howeves, fallen
under our immediate observation which calls for se-
verer reprehension than the insult offered to our flag
on Tuesday, and the violation of the neutrality of
this country. The schooner Veloz, having on board
a valuable cargo daserchandize sailed in the morn.
ing for Carthagena ; about two boors after, she was
followed out of port by an armed schooner, called
the Providencia, cleared out for ganta-hfartha., The .
Veloz, perceiving herself chased, immediately stood
in shore under a press of sail, followed by her pur-
suer. After weathering the reef, the Velos bore up
for Port Itoyal. The Providencia steered large to
cut her off, hoisted Royal colours, and &reit *sun at
her, and from the direction of the same, thew ts.Uttlo
doubt but that the shot fell ashore ; but Hach:rum
was fortunate enough to reach the port in safety. A
communication was immediatelyvnade on the subject
to-Rear-Admiral BaowN, who evinced every disposi.
tion to check such an unwarrantable proceeding, but
unfortunately there was not a vessel of war in port at
the time, to go in pursuit of the Providencia.

EXTRACT OF A LETTER FROM MORANT,AED DAVID rota
22n INSTANT.
44 The American privateer schooner, which sunk
the sloop Fame, is still hovering off here,. and boards
every vessel which comes round the Xast.end. The
Captain of the privateer behaved extremely ill to the
Master oldie Fame, who was severely flogged by.bim
for merely endeavouring to save himself and people
from capture, by running his vessel ashore. There
ate two deep-loaded ships off here now, supposed to
have come .round from the North-side to jouktbe
convoy ; They hove-to all night, and are now close in.
with .the Bay.
. ,
44 his to be hoped *that the' Decouverte will soon
resume her station off here, as, from her superior sail.
ing, and Lieutenant Will'ams's knowledge of the
coast, it is to be presumed she will ensure protection,
to the trade on this;, side the island."
AUGUST :.—by the hurricane which visited us some
days ago, between 20 and SO schooners and small
vessels were either sunk, driven ashore, or otherwise
materially injured in our harbour.
In the harbour of Port Rtyal, there were also se-
veral small vessels lost. The damage done to the
houses and plantations in various parts of the island
has also been very considerable. The plantain, walks
have particularly suffered.
Fourteen privateers are now at sea, which. have
, been fitted out at Carthagena ; and a new privateer
schooner, called the President, of eight gums and a
proportionate number of men, arrived there on the
20th ultimo, from New-York, when she immediately
obtained an independent commission, and proceeded
on a cruize.

mawkish beyond precedent. To us, however, they

-Of this description, we have no doubt-, were the affairs

Count Louth at one time during these affairs, ad.

previously driVen the enemy into the plains of Top.
Litz, which are commanded by the heights of Arbesau
and Karwitz. The enetny give hiM ho rest I they
attempted to surprise him, but were repulsed and
pursued, as usual, " field e daps let reitu"—a phrase
Which has recently become as fashionable in the French
reports, as the tremendous expressions des pushing the

squadrons." and a thousand other extravagancies.—
' Strange to tell, however, the heroic Count Los.su, on
4,13 e 19th, finds it convenient to resume his positions
-before Hollensdorf, and the camp of Gieshubel, for
no other reason, forsooth, than because the "rail fell
in torrents!"

Count LOBAU (for he is driven back to within fifteen
miles of Dresden), we are regaled With a confused
account of the operations on the side of Italy. A
'series of victories are said to have beet► gained by the
VICEROY, and Fiume and Trieste secured by French
'coops. The Austrians threaten hard, however, in
'his direction also, and we must be forgiven if we do
AOt implicitly believe that Fiume was abandoned so
precipitately as ih^ French Papers describe. At
Weichselburg the Austrians decidedly had the ad.
vantage, even by the statement of their enemies.

An article from Trieste contradicts what are dew-
Frinated, some 44 impudent lies in the Vienna Gazette,"
on the subject of the dispositions of the inhabitants.
They are happy and contented as French subjects!
and ::ace no wish to become Austrians again !—We
can see through all this : the national spirit of the
Illyrian Provinces is again abroad, and, like the Ty-
rolese, the inhabitants of the Littomle loudly demand
to be restored to their ancient allegiance to the House
of Austria.
