IMPOSTURE UNMASKED.

THE Progress of Merit, although frequently assailed,
is not impeded by Envy and Detraction. The aggression
of ambuscade terminates in defeat ; and conscious rectitude ulti-
mately itt the attainment of the grand object—public
approbaticra. The test of experience is the guarantee of favour,
and has established WARREN'S BLACKING in general esti-
mation; of which there exists not a stronger proof, than the tacit
acknowledgment of a host of servile imitators, who surreptitiously
obtrude on the unwary a spurious preparation as the genuine ar-
ticle, to the great disappointmeut of the unguarded purchaser, and
manifest injury of Warren, whose character and interest, by this
isiquitous system, are equally subject to detriment. It becomes,
herefore, an indispensable duty, to caution the public against the
rianceuvrev of unprincipled venders, who having no character to
lose, and stimulated by avarice in their nefarious pursuits, aim at
5e acquisition of money through any medium but that of honour.
-r•
fle original and matchless Blacking bears on each bottle a short
direction, with the signature, " ItOßßlt'r W ARREN ;" all
others are counterfeits; and in many instances the imposition labels
a:*e artfully interlir.td with a different address, la very small cha-
:.crers, between the more conspicuous ones of " No. 30," and
SI'EAN D." It is earnestly recommended to shopkeepers and
c!'.ers, who are deceived by base fabricatiods of Warren's Blacking,
!) return the detected trash to the source from whence it came, and
"rase the machinations of rascality to merited obloquy.
Warren's Blacking is surpassingly brilliant; it excludes damp,
ile(s rliancy to the leather, retains its pristine virtue in all climates,
zonibitiing elegance with comfort, is an article equally of in.
osable fashion and
.Sold by every respectable Vender in Town and Country, in but-
-3.9, at 6d. 10d. lad. and 18d. each.

THE PELLEIV ISLAADERS.

The &Jen, South Sea Whaler, Captain Fredericic
Ciiffin, arui'ed on Thursday evening last, at Deptford,
after a voyage of 25 months, having left Gravesend the
2J of August, 1822. She was built as a pleasore-yacht
by the express command of Bonaparte, and has met
with great success, haviffg returned with 320 tuns of
oil. During the passage out, on Easter Monday, March
31,1823,a bile off the southernmost of the Pellew Islands,l
under a lively breeze, several large sailing canoes ap-
pealed in sight, which increased in number to nearly
30, each having from six to ten on board, upon which
the Syren slackened sail ; and on approaching, many ofl
the natives called out, as through motives of inquiry,
"English ? English?" and being answered in the affirma-
tive,they came alongside, and with pretty correct pronun-
ciation, cried," Give us a rope :" this was complied with.
From the generally-reported mild and pacific demean-1
our of these people, who, to the number of about one
hundred, quickly crowded the deck, civilities were ex-
changed in apparently the most friendly manner, and
as they brought few provisions with them, and no ar-
ticles of curiosity, the crew commenced bartering for
their spears, with which they were armed, and with
which they seemed to part reluctantly. At this time
the vessel continued under easy sail, thE canoes closely
accompanying them, to their companions, in which
those on board seemed in no degree anxious to return.
The mate, who 'felt a little distrust from • their supe-
riority in number, the crew being only thirty-seven,
communicated his opinion to the Captain, who instantly
coincided, and gave orders to crowd more sail, thinking
it would induce them to depart. This appeared to oc-
casion some little dislike, and in a few minutes after,
while Captain Coffin was in a boat, fashed to the side,
giving orders to that effect, two of the natives, at a prey
concerted signal :t is supposed, suddenly seized him,
and endeavoured to throw him into the sea, while a
general attack was commenced on the rest of the crew.
The Captain disengaged himself, succeeded in gaining
the deck, and calling aloud that their lives and safety
of the ship depended on desperate fighting, a fierce en-
gagement ensued.
Those of the natives who in traffic had parted with
their spears were assisted with others from the canoes,
or availing themselves of the harpoons, which with
great dexterity they broke to a suitable length, while
others gaining the whaling spades, used in digging into
the fish when caught, continued a most furious attack;
notwithstanding the disparity, the crew succeeded in
driving them to the stem of the vessel, where they leaped
overboard and regained their canoes. It is worthy of
remark, that when any of the natives were wounded,l
or stunned by being knocked down, they were instantly
thrown by•their companions into the sea, where they
either swam or were picked up by their companions,
who frequently attempted to accompany them to re-
turn, but were always repulsed in endeavouring to get
up the sides, and throughout encouraged them by loud
cheering. On their quitting the Syren the crew com-
menced filing, and, though greatly exhausted, having a
ready supply of ammunition, it was kept up while
within musket-shot, but with what effect is not kr.own,
as several they supposed killed, from falling into the wa-
ter, were seen to rise and regain their canoes; nearly
the whole of the ship's company were wounded bever ei y ;
the effects of which, nota ithstanding Vie unremitting
exertions and skill of the surgeon, several will never, it
is feared, entirely recover from; and it is to be regretted
that the carpenter, named Joseph Caulfield, who fought
most contageously, lost his life by a blo.v from a whale-
spade, which nearly severed his head from his body, as
did William Warrer, boat-steerer to the second mate,
who was speared mast dreadfully through the body;
the latter has left an aged mother, and the former a
wife and ten children, living in London, totally unpro-
vided for. The retreat of the savages was as sudden as
the attack, from their mode of which, the pronuncia-
tion of certain words, their jealousy in parting from
their weapons, the seizure of peculiar implements and
converting them into weapons, the attack and seizure
of the Captain, and its commencing when there were
fewest on deck, the crew continue in opinion that the
whole was conceited and organized by Europeans or
Americans, resident in the island ; what deterred then]
from entertaining the least suspicion was, the Syren
having a short time previous spoke to a vessel, which
stated she had been aground near the Pellew Islands,
and the prompt assistance that had been renJered by
the naives.
