EVER ANXIOUS TO PREVENT IMPOSITION, •
DAY and MARTIN respectfully inform the Public
they have, after much labour and at a very considerable ex-
pense, brought to perfection a Label of such singular construction
and extreme dilluulty of execution, that they trust will effectually
prevent the many Frauds that are daily practised en the Public.—
An attention to the following description of the Label will ensure
the genuine Blacking prepared by them. A pattern like Lace of a
pink colour covers the principal part of the Label, the names of
My and Martin are printed in white letters edged with pink and
black, and placed on a white ground, the addrese,

soli laden with the produce of his kingdom, which had
'arrived safely.
The trade of the Dutch Settlement of Padang is stated
to be nearly destroyed, in consequence of the vexatious
imposts of the Authorities. The regulation, prohibiting
the transport of Salt into the interior, bad occasioned dui
Natives to find other sources for its introduction, and
the imposition of a duty on Raw Cotton, (an article of
large consumption by the Natives) Of 25 rupees per
pica!, bad nearly put an end to the demand. The col-
lection of gold at Padang had been reduced from 12,000
to 2,000 taels and the only export of any value left
was Coffee. In fact, Padang, which was formerly the
most profitable out-station of the Dutch, and which
yielded a considerable surplus revenue, had become a
complete burthen to the Government of Java. The com-1
coerce of Pontianah bad likewise suffered greatly from
the disturbances occasioned by the war with the Chinese
miners, end the produce was very scarce.
Captain Burney, the Envoy at Siam, had succeeded
in obtaining the release of 570 of the prisoners taken
from Megui and Tavor, who had been sent acrou the
country to Penang. The junk Which the King of Siam
sends annually to China, with presents for the Emperor,
had been lost off the Bir of Stam.

The supplies of opium have been very trifling, and
prices have been maintained. A few chests 'of Patna
have been sold at 1,900 dollars, and some Mahva at
,•1,000 to 1,080 dollars. The stock in the first hands is,
now very small. The importations of produce have
been very limited for some time past. Of peppers, the
arrivals are unusually small, and prices are rather
higher, 7 dollars having been paid. Sugar is held at
7i to 7i dollars. Tin sells at 21i to 21i dollars.—
Several parcels of speltre have arrived,which are offered
at 10 dollars. The Scorpion and Cornwallis have
sailed for London; the Sir Godfrey Webster and For-
titude are both loading, and will take their departure
shortly for the same destination.

. GERMAN PAPERS—lawny= LAST NIGHT).
TRIESTE, Ormuz 14.
The Mistrwator of to-day contains the extract of a
letter from Leghorn, of the 6th of October, to the fol-
lowing effect :...J(On the 4th, in the evening, the Tus-
can brigantine David, Captain Emanuel Arnoldi ar-
rived here, in fifty-six days from Beiroot, in Syria. On
the 6th of September it was attacked between Candia
and the Coast of Barbary, by a brig, of eight guns and
fifty men.—The robbers threatened to murder the crew
if they did not :hew them where the money was to he
found. At first they seemed disposed to carry the brig
into Napoli di Romania, but changed their mind, and
abandoned it, after they had seized on the grafter part
of the care, all the money on board, and the effects of
the Captain and crew.
Letters from Syra of the 12th of September mention
other robberies of the same kind committed upon French
and Sardinian merchantmen, near Candia, and off Ca-

podoro, in the Archipelago. An English trading brig is
said to be near suffering the same fate, between Tino and
Miconi, some Greek pirates being just ready to attack it;
when a French armed brig appeared and delivered it
from the Pirates.

The Ousrvatore has an article from Zea, stating, that
an English frigate had appeared off that island, and
landed a hundred men to search for stolen English
goods. Commodore Hamilton met between Zea and
Andro a Greek Martingana, which had on board the
notorious Vasso Braicovich, who had obtained leave of
absence for thirty days to visit his family. As the papers
of this vessel were not is regular order, it was detained
and taken to Zea, where Vasso and his effects were
landed ; but the ship was taken away by Commodore
Hamilton, who had burnt several Greek mystics, Ole. in
those seas. Letters from Zurich of the 4th of October,
also in the Olveroatore Treistino. report that the Acro-
polis of Athens had surrendered to the Seraskier.

ODESSA, Ocrous s.
It is fully affirmed that the Turkish Commissioners
at Akermana delivered, on the 6th of this month in the
evening, and consequently before the expiration of the
term fixed, the answer to the proposals laid before them
in the month of August. Though nothing has been
made public respecting it, it is more generally believed
to be satisfactory, as no movement has since taken
place among the troops. It was immediately dispatched
to the Emperor at Moscow. The Porte, therefore, has

for the present submitted to circumstances, though its
Ministers at Constantinople, daring the course of the
negociations, vehemently protested against the man-
ner of them.

The Mositeur contains communications from Mos-
cow to the 3d inst. Preparations were making for the
return of the Emperor and his Court to St. Peters-
burgh, but no day was yet fixed for their departure,
and the ancient capital of the Monarchy continued to be
the seat of splendour and festivity. The Persian war,
we are told, " did not attract much of the Emperor's
attention. The Bulletins were satisfactory, though ra-
ther exaggerated ; and though winter would prevent
the immediate advance of the Russians on the enemy's
territory, it ties expected that early in the Spring the
army would break up from its cantonments and march
forward." It does not appear, however, that the cow
plete overthrow of the Persian Monarchy is considered
as easy of execution at Moscow, ask has been imagined
to be, by some political castle builders in this country.
" We do not think,"says the coMmunication, "that the
Persian army can resist, but it would be a delusion to
conceive that the Russian army could make, what is
called a military promenade as far as Teheran. One
hundred and fifty leagues at least separate that capital
from the camp of Yermoloif, and countries are to be
crossed, whose deserts and sands do not permit the de-
velopment of a military force. Dearth of provisions,
,and the difficulty of transpotting artillery. will render
the campaign a long and arduous one. The provinces
of Persia in that direction are entirely ruined, and the
march of a numerous army through a ruined country,
is always painful and difficult. Besides, it is believed
that our young Monarch settled beforehand with the
British Ambassador at Moscow, the exact point at which
invasion on our partly to stop. It is thought that we
shall require theettension of out frontiers to the Armies,
in order to obtain a good military position, affixding
ample protection to the 'Abject: of his Imperial Majesty:"
