PRINCE of WALES ISLAND GOVERNMENT GAZETTL
Saturday, Aug 9, )806.
Lail Thurfday evening a brig, mounting fourteen
carriage guns and fix fwivels, under white colours,
entered the harbour from the fouth ward. The mailer
attendant's boat, as tifull, proceeded on board, and
returned with three Javanefe, who reported that the
veffel was named the Ajax, and formerly command-
ed by Captain Monkenberg, and belonged to the
Dutch Eaft India Company at Sarnarang ; had
failed from thence about eight months fince for
I'ernate, to cruize off the if ands, touching at Ma-
calf.ron their way; it was about two months before
they reached MacafTer, where they remained one
month ; that the Captain, Officers, and European
part of the crew, twelve in number, had treated them
very ill, with conflant abufe, pnnilhment, and almoll
flarvati n ; that, unable to bear this treatment, they
unanimoufly refolved to defirny them, and carry the
velrel to a Britith port. Accordingly, four days'
after leaving Macaffer, when at anchor on a bank,
about midnight, the Dutchmen all aflr'ep, they mur•
dered every one, and threw them overboard. They I
then fearched the veffel for all the papers, which I
were alto thrown overboard and funk. Apprehen-
five of their lading to a difcovery, timid they fall
in with any Dutch vefrel, that they then made fail
for this illand, with intent to deliver up the vefTel to
Government. About fix weeks after they 'cached,
what they fuppofed Lingen, where the boat, with
four men, went on (bore for provifiont, but did not
return ; that they failed from thence about fix weeks
fince. •

Shortly after anchoring, the Hon. Capt. Cochrane
proceeded on board, and took poffeffion.

We have received tome American Papers, but not
of a later date than thole we announced on Saturday.
One printed at New York contains an extract from a
Philadelphia Paper, from which it would appear the
reign of General HENRY CHRISTOPHI, Prefident of
Hayti, has been very (hors lived. The particulars
promifed to be given in the next publication of the
journal alluded to, do nit appear in any of the fub-
lequent New York papers.
The WASP (loop of war failed from Wafhington
on the 24th of Apiil, for England, with Mr. NM-
VIANCE, late Secretary to the American Legation at
our Court. Wl;er. the WASP was firit ordered to be
in readinefs to fail for England, it was prediCted that
the Britifh Treaty was to be fent back in her. It was,
however, underftood at Walhington, the 25th March
that the treaty would not be fent back, but that after
ionic difctalion and explanation between the elpec-
Live Governments, it would be finally fubmitted to
the Senate of the United States. Mr. PuiVIANCE is
probably come to England with inftruflions to that
e ire et.

It is Dated in one of the New York papers, that
two Dutch frigates, and tixteen other armed veffels,
had been deflroyed by Sir Euwasr PcLetw's 111112-
dt-on, in the Roads of Batavia. Intelligence to this
etre& is raid to have been brought by the brig Sally
and Helty, arrived at Philadelphia from that place.
The American Paper does not mention when this
affair took place.
