" In my lag I mentioned the murder of the great
Jew, Bufnach, by a Turkifis foldier, in this city, on
the 13th ult. The next day the foldiers rofe in a
body, killed every Jew they met with, and plundered
their houfes. From that time to this, the city has
been in a perfeft Rate of rebellion—the fathers Pet-
ting the Dey and all authority at defiance. To add
to this Rate of wretchednefs, the whole country of
Moors (from Fremefen to Conftantine). have rifcn
up in arms againll the Turks, being determined to
flake off their yoke.
" The city of Fremefen has long finee been taken
by the Moorith army, and accounts Rate, that Oran
cannot hold out much longer, being out of provi
(ions, and deprived of the neceffary tupply of water.
Every veffel that goes there, the Dey detains, to be
ready to take off the Turks when they can hold out
no longer.
66 The city of Algiers has given Oran a partial
raid, at times, with grain ' • but can do no more for
the prefent, as the want of that attide here, is the
fource of the greatell troubles. Nothing of the pro-
vifion kind can be had from the neighbourhood of
the city of Algiers, as the Moors are all in arms,
waiting the fate of Oran ; after which, it is beyond
doubt, they will turn their whole force to this place
—therefore all the grain that can be found near the
city, is conveyed in by orders of the Dey. The
Turkith foldiers, to a man, left their barracks. the
asth infiant, and marched out of town, contrary
to the orders of the Dey, where they held a fecret
conference of three hours, and then returned to town

again.
" On the :7th inftant, the foldiers, as before, held
another conference ; the refult is unknown ; but the
Dey, Divans &c. are in the greatell alarm for their
own fafety, and are conftantly in feffion at the palace.
4, It is conjeaured the foldiery intend to &limy
the prefent Government, in confequence of the Dey
„having ltrangled two principal Turkifh foldiers, for
outrages committed on the Jews, and create a new
fct of rulers. The conduit of the Dey, Eitc.
blithe; this idea in the firongeft point of view, as they
h:.ve taken great care of themfelves, by doubling the
palace guards, &c. and doling all the ftreet gam
at funfet—thefe arc never (hut, but in times of real
danger ; the city gates are always fbut at dark—
but thefe precautions will not anfwer the end intend-
ed. Deftruaion is on the wing. Thus, Sir, you
may fee what Algiers is at prefent ; befet within and
without by her own fubjeas ; it is fuppofed a thou
time will-bring to pats fuch a fcene of horror, as is
unknown even in hiftory."

" By our accounts from Alicant, I find that fix
new Dcys were fucceffively maffacred at Algiers ;
alto the Jew►, Becary and Boffinaco, their families,
and other principal Jews. They wanted to proclaim
the Mical Hage as a leventh Dey, but be made his
efcape, and got to Alieant."
szva•cT OF A LETTER IRON AN OFFICER ON HOARD
THE NAUTILUS, DATED GIIIALLTAIt NAT, SEPT. 20.
" I, at this time, belong to the (ebonite: Nautilus,
which fchooner was fent with difpatches from Tunis
to Algiers. A few days before our arrival at Algiers,
the Dey was put to death by the foldiers; the Prime
Manilla, the Secretary, and Hean, King of the Jews
—which Jew was in poffeffion cf eighteen millions of '
money. The way in which thefe perfons were put
to death, would be too tedious to de tribe. 1 faw the
Secretary hanging ; he was eafed down on a large
iron pike, which run up his body, with a rope round
his neck ; in which fituation be was to remain three
days. 4n our arrival, they fired a falute of at guns,
which was immediately anfwered by the fchooner,
'and, is a thort,time, we received a versa% of three

bullocks, 4ve fheep, fruits, bread, eggs, and vegeta-
bles of all defcriptions, natural to the country.—
There are many merchant grips, from America, in
this%pgrt, condemned it this time."

1 am but a few days relcafed from a (late of much
anxiety' ; the mountain negroes have been very trou-
blefome ; the troops and inhabitants here have bad
an atlion with them, and numbers fell on both fides.
This place is in a very confufed !fate, and how far
the infurreaion may fpread, is uncertain ;many here
think it will be general througholit the illand."
