Gottenburgh.
GEOROETOW'N, JUNE a.
Arrived on the 30th ultimo, the schooner Emily,
SPILLMAN, in 22 days from Bonne (Spanish Main.)
Captain SPiLLMANT reports having been boarded on
the 12th, about 46 miles from the S. E. end of St.
Domingo, from 2 Spanish schooner called the Pe-
lican, mountingeight 121 b. carronades, and two brass
18's on pivots, manned with a crew of about 130
men, consisting of negroes, Spaniards, Indians, Por••
tuguese, and one white man. The object of these pi-
rates appeared to be money, and being disappointed
they robbed the Emily of all her stores, and every
moveable article of value, and a passenger's trunk of
800 dollars, not sparing the watch of the Captain,
nor the rings in the ears of his men, which latter ar-
ticles were taken with much cruelty at the muzzles
of pistols. The robbers had sc.rcely executed their
purpose, when a large ship, apparently a man of war,
hour in sight, came up, and attacked the pirate ; the
action was well sustained on the part of each vessel
f•
or at least one hour, when the ship hauled off, and
made sail. _ _

portance. The West Indian Seas continue-to be in-
fested with Insurgent privateers. The island was in
a healthy state at the date above-mentioned. The
following is an extract from one of these Papers:
4 KINGSTON, APRIL 2.5.

" Several seizures have been lately made at Antigua and St.
Kitts, of • very serious nature. It appears by an old Act of
Parliament (so little regarded for a long time past as to be con-
sidered obsolete), that an Order in Council was necessary to
enable European ships to carry gunpowder, which they are in
the habit of doing, for the purpose of commuting for the powder
duty in the colonies ; this being neglected, five vessels have been
sized at St. Bites and Nevis, by Admiral ILsavvr, and one at
Antigua by the Cantassats."
A single Madras Paper, of January 31, has been
received-. It is of a date anterior to intelligence al-
ready received from that quarter, and, of course, can•
not contain any important news. We extract, how-
ever, the following particulars relative to the opera-
tions of the troops un4er General Dosmnr, against
the Fuidaries
" General Dookia's Camp, Gynta Ghent, Right
Bank of the Chumbul, December, 1817.
* After some long forced marches, we at last came up with
the hordes of Pindaric% under Kurreeen Khan and Wasul Ma-
homed, on the 17th instant, at day-break ; they had, however,
got information of our approach, and had dismissed all their wo-
men, camp equipage, and heavy baggage. and gone off full speed,
so that we only came into close contact with one detachment,
along with which was the Chief's sots, who was killed, and Kur-
reem Khan's wife, and several females of his family, who were
taken Prisoners, and are now in our camp. The greater part of
their baggage, horses, easnetS, and Kurreem's state elephant and
howdah, and his palkee, were captured. A number of valuable
articles, such as shawls, were among the baggage, and are now
selling off by outcry in the camp. General Marshall's camp was
within four ems of us, and be fell in with the remainder of the
baggage andbazaara which he *avowed, bat the two Chiefs got
off with about 300 men. We have been halting here for two
days to recruit for battle."
VeveztrELA.—Extract of a letter from Port Spain,
dated May 13..,-" Since the battle which was fought
on the 26th March, the City of San Carlos and the
town of El Pao, with their districts, have been taken
by General PAEZ'S division, and the Royalists under
Brigadier-Caneral LATORRE and Colonel LOPEZ se-
verely beat and dispersed. LATORRE is said to have
been killed in the action of San Carlos, and LoPEZ to
have escaped with the fugitives. As the Bulletin of
these actions has not yet arrived I have not been able
to ascertain the enact dates ; but as the occupation of
both is mentioned in a letter from the Intendant of
Guayana, of the 15th April, it must have taken place
very soon after the battle of Ortiz. It was known by
the Spaniards at Puerto Cabello previous to the I*.h
April, by means of some who had escaped. 'the
action at San Carlos is said to have been bloody, as
indeed most of the late actions have been."
