Extract of a Letter from the Cape of Good Hope,
dated March I`2, 1818 John Palmer, we have
the pleasure to inform you, arrived in our Roads on
the 7th inst. all well. A desperate and atrocious mu-
tiny, of 10 (1 Aber foremast men out of the 15, had
nearly proved destructive of. both ship and cargo, at
sea, and of the lives of the Captain, Officers, and
passengers, and such of the remaining crew %%Ito
stood fa:C.-Sal to their duty ; and nothing but the
firm and sr.ir:ted conduct of her Commander, Cap-
rain G. SAUNDERS, seconded by eue exertions of lies
Officers, the wei! ordered portion of her people, and
the passengers, saved the property from piracy, and
plunder, and their lives from murder. They were
overpowered, after a severe struggle. We have fur-
ther, for the safety of the ship and cargo, and the lives
on board ia harbour, applied to the proper authority
of the colony for tiAat protection necessarily required;
and nine of the 13 have accordingly been here im-
prisoned, to abide, the c6nsequences of their unjusti-
fiable ccnducc."

Monday afternoon, Lieatenaat FeIRMAN, on half

bury, was drowned while bathing in the river Stour.
Saturday, the carriage of Colonel DicitaNs, of the

The KING of-NAP/As has issued a Decree relnire
to the coin of his realm. Its cbject professes tc be
to supply the deficiencies of a Drench regulatica of
1814, Waereby the decimal system ciliates and cen-
I times had been abolished, and the ancient coins re-
called with regard to silver; the geld coinage being
left in its then existing slate. To remedy this incca-
, sistency the present ordinance. is published, one or two
of the articles of which are very singular. It is al-
limed that silver should circulate somewhat under its
blue,. and should not be subjected to the scale, ex-
cept evidently maimed or defaced : but while it raises
the gold to a high standard, and permits the subjects
of Naples to take it by the weight, it allows ficely of
its being exported either in specie or melted.
