BOSTON, APRIL 10.
[From an American Paptr.l
TILE CIIZSAPEAKE FRIOATE.—It is with pleasure we
announce the safe arrival in our harbour of the United
States frigate Chesapeake, Captain EVANS, from a
cruize of 115 days. From Boston, she ran down by
the Madeiras, Canaries, and .Cape de Verds ; thence
down on the equator, between long. 16. and 25.
(where she cruized six weeks). thence down the coast
of South America, passing within 15 leagues of Su-
rinam (was in the same place the Hornet sunk the
Peacock the day after she left); down by Barbadoes,
Antigua, and most of the Windward West-India
Islands ; thence on the Coast of the United States.
between Bermuda and the Capes of Virginia, by tile.
Capes of the Delaware within twelve leagues, by
New-York within twenty leagues, thence through the.
East Channel to this port.
The Chesapeake has taken, during the cruize, the
American brig Julia, from Lisbon for Boston, with
an English license (arrived at. Boston and condemned);
British ship Volunteer, from Liverpool to-Brazils, (ar-
rived at Portsmouth, N. H.) ; British brig Liverpool
Hero, from Liverpool to Brazils, cargo dry goods,
hardware, and jewellery; cargo taken out, and vessel
burnt; and brig Earl Percy, from Cape-de-Verdi,
with.salt, for Brazils, ashore at Long Island—she has
on board 55 British prisoners. Jan. 1, off the Western i
Islands, discovered two large sail to windward, ap-
parently men of war, bearing down, lay-to for them,
and when near enough to ascertain that they were 'a
74 and a frigate, made all sail, and escaped. About
ten days since, off the Capes of Virginia, gave chaie
to a sloop of *ar, and continued chasing for two days,
when she finally escaped in the night. These are the
only ships of war she has seen during the cruize.

By the last advices from Baltimore, we learn that
no licensed vessel is suffered to leave any of the Ame.
rican ports, the whole of them being turned back into
the Chesapeake and Delaware by the blockading
squadron. It is ascertained, that there are 300,000
barrels of flour on ship=board in the two bays, which
will all perish if the vessels are not permitted to sail/
before the hot weather sets in.
The follosting have been captured by the Lion
French privateer, since the 30th ult. viz. an English
brig, from Oporto to Newfoundland, in ballast ; an
English schooner, from Gibraltar to Ire.l.ind, laden
with iron, cocoa and shells, both destroyed ; a Spa.
nish brig, Corunna to Cadiz, laden with shells,
plundered and given up, having French passengers
on board.
Two chasse marks, and the brig Vulture, Goon.
lama, in ballast, sailed from Oporto, about the 25a
I
d May, for Newtoundland.

BIBL,S SOCIEIT.

Ttresday theifirst Gener.il, Meeting of this Society
Since its ettablishnhnt was held at Canonbury House,
Islington, Lord Catranelnc in the Chair.
• His Lordship, with interesting tundesty, opened
the meeting b) stating briefly its great object, and in
the course of his speech paid a proper tribute tia the
Parent Society, and to the Rem, Duxes, who have
done thems..lves so much honour by the willing pa..
tronage and zealous snpport they-have afforded to
the Instituti• in. The sum already collected by the
3ritish and Foreign Bible Society was stated to be
not less than 476,000, for the perpose of diffusing
the glad news of Eternal Life, not only among the
poor of our own country, but throughout the dark
regions of the earth, where mankind are still sitting
in the most deplorable state of ignorance.
Several Clergymen and Gentlemen addressed the
meeting ; but our limits prohibit a full report. We
cannot, however, omit to mention the address of Dr.
Naunt, from Malta, who gave several pleasing in-
stances of the progress of Divine Truth among the
Ivlalionielans and heathens :—One of a Bashaw, who,
having procured the Bible, found himself impelled to
read the sacred volume to crowds of his countrymen.
One of the auditors asked him, if the book contained
arty thing against Mahomet t His answer was, that
the book was the Word of GOD, and that he had not
found in it the name of Maliemet.—Another Bible
had found its way into the hands of a poor man,
which was so much coveted by another to whom he
had been reading it,•that he wished to buy it by ex-
changing his for the volume ; but the possessor
replied, that no earthly good could repay him for the
loss of the words of eternal lite.
By the Report read by the Secretary it appeared,
that this Auxiliary Society, which has only existed for
a few months, has already, by the zeal of the mem-
bers and of the Committee, obtained donations and
subscriptions to the amount of £P2,000, which had
enabled them to distribute as many Bibles and New
Testaments as they had been able to procure; for
such has been the demand to answer the consumption
.of the Parent Society and the auxiliary branches, that
the King's Printer and the two Universities have not
been able to furnish the number m anted. Great
efforts, rowever, are making by all of them, and the
supply will soon be abundant.
The example of a Ciet g y nom (Mr. MORE, of Edin-
burgh) was mentioned as worthy of imitation, and
likely -to pr ye serviceable to the great cause. He
sent to the British and Foreign Bible Society the
profits of a Sermon which he had been induced to
publish, amounting to £5O.
The Society proceeded to the election of regular
office-bearers, when Lord CAL/1101uB was nominated
President. Several other persons of distinction were
elected Vice-Presidents; and a numerous Committee
of most respectable, active, and zealous members,
was appointed.
The mee;ing was so well attended, that the large
room could not contain the Members of Parliament,
the Ladies (who wete extremely numerous), and the
Gentlemen, st ho attended—even the stairs were fined
With conleiny. After the Society was adjourned,
books were opened to receive the subscriptions of
new members; and there teas a public collection fur
the fund, to which the centributions were liberal.

The Ifercine, or the Alveolar(' of a fair Romance
)Trader.—A celebrated Journal has pronounced this
Work to combine more interest, wit and humour,
than any Novel in the E:iglish language. It is said
to be from the pen of the A lithoro: All the Talents,"
a satirical poet!), which some years ago excited so
'Much attention in the literary as well as political
world. It is certainly a production of no ordinary
Nt'r: er.

The EAilf. of TIIANLT'S PLAN for Extirpating the
Ply in Turnips, has been adopted by the Doke of
Bulk-our), Mr. COKE', of Norfolk, and other eminent
Agi iculturists ; indeed, it requires only to be known
to bt•crme universal. His Lordship, in his Corres-
pond!nce with Mr. Grtru, dated March 7, 1813,
FT akin:! of his success, says, I have had a most mag-
nilice::c crop of Swedes this year. T%% enty-four
SLo.ch Bullock.a have been four months eating two
acres of Swedes—l am afraid to say they eat more
than on: bushel per head per day : It was part of an
old me.!dow lately broken up, and the first time of

bjhg Tui nips in rows—and the Tut nips so large,
they almost touched etch other, wei,thing, I verily
believe, t•pon 4n ave-rtge, from ten to tout teen punds
each : they Were liter .thy' solid riLlges of Turnips!
