ALGIERS.
Sunda > 'se'nnight, his Majesty. s steam-ve•sel, LIGHT-
NINO, returned to Portsmouth, from Algiers. . The
following extract from a letter from an Officer supplies
some interesting particulars of the means taken to ob-
tain the submission of the Dey to our demands :
" Algiers Road, July 26.
41 The LK:furs:ll4G steam-vessel parts company to-
day, with the Admiral's dispatches for England. I
must acquaint you how disappointed we all are here at
the termination of our affair with the Dey. On the
24th instant, the last of the bomb-vessels arrived from
England, and every preparation being completed, we
yesterday took up our stations (twenty-one sail), in a
double line, before the town, at the distance of about
3.500 yards of the Lighthouse—the /ETNA leading.—
The arrangements were excellently made, and our
orders well defined ; and so far promised success.—
About foilr o'clock, on anchoring, the enemy opened
their file along their whole line of fortified works, by
signal from the Palace: shells fell over our ships in all,
directions ; we had no orders to fire, but we perceived
that our Admiral hoisted a flag of truce, upon which
the enemy's firing ceased ; negotiations were opened,
which were continued until the evening, and this morn-
ing the treaty was concluded and signed. The Admiral
of the Port, and some of the Chiefs, went on board the
REVENGE to ratify the treaty with Mr. Macdonald. A
salute has bees fired in celebration of the event by the
city of Algiers, and returned by the same number of
guns by the Admiral's ship, the REVENGE. We under-
stand the Dey has made something like an apology to
the King of England, for the insult offered to the Bri-
tish Consul's flag, has agreed to faithfully observe all
the terms in the Exmouth treaty, and consented that
Mr. Macdonald, the Consul, shall return to his public
duty. But having accompanied his expression of per-
sonal disposition respecting Mr. Macdonald, with a de-
claration of irresponsibility for his life, should he put
his foot on shore again, that Gentleman has not thought
proper, for the present, to resume his station ; but Mr.
Durnford, the Secretary's Clerk of the REVENGE, (Mr.
Sconce, the Secretary, having declined the honour), has
been appointed Pro-Consul, ad interim. The result is,
that Mr. Macdonald will return to Malta in the RE-
VENGE. The bombs were all ready to commence firing,
had the treaty not been si,----' "

We have received Jamaica Papers to the 13th ult.
which confirm the previous accounts, that the spirit of
insurrection among the Negroes had nearly if not wholly
subsided, the advices from Montego Bay stating that
one individual only of those implicated in the late con-
spiracy was absent, all the others having returned, or
been brought in.
We understand that the accounts received by Govern.
n:ent are to the same effect.
