ATTRACT OF A LETTER.
•
Heating.that the Gcnna is to sail immediately for
EaglAnd, I seize the opportunity of enclosing to you
one of our last Gautier, not that it contains any thing
of importance, but because it gives you the latest news
from a spot to which your attention must for some time
to come be directed.

i• It is a great question with our politicians here,
Whether the victory of Navarro will hive the efFret of
accelerating or preventing a formal war with the. Otta
man Porte. For my own part, I cannot avoid the, in):
preision that the sphere of hostilities will, ere long, be,
extended. The ultimate consequences, however, are fat
beyond my calculation.
" By a private letter from Tt iyoli, of The 2d instant,'
I learn that a repot had reached that place from S .0..
clan. that Captain Clappetton died at Sackatoo. My
Tripalitan correspondent, however, doubts the authen-
ticity of the report; but, however this may prove in the
. issue, it is next to certain the says), that a short time
. will put us in possession of intelligence relating to the
geography of Central Africa ;•for• the survisors of Clap-'
per ton (or himself, if he be not dead) art on their way,
from Sackatoo, to reach Tr ipoll,try Bornou and Fess i n.l
They penetrated to Sackatoo (this is -cesta.in), by the{
way of Dahniny, from the Bight of Benin; and diet
r.ti A, at all events,bring with them Clapperton's notes
and papers.. Swine natives of Boinou (wbo ate con-
• firmed by persons of Waday and Beghartni), assert that
ii. the:wait,. of the Yeou and GXmhardu, togellte.4 tp,
several others of magnitude, form. iotectlitili, lit
Nile, which runs on to Nubia and Egypt ;Altai IA
late Tchad is-termed in a measure by the confitiejNt
orihis- and other great waters, including the Sherry;
. . -
slid that it has an eastern outlet, from whence

escape,. piobably, as much water as runs into it.—
Thu. it would appear that the Arabs were tight in as-
'setting to Denham, th it the icou was the Nile. They
say', in Morocco, that die Nostra (or Jolliba) Riser
joins the abovemeutiored streams. Other AfriCans
• assert the same, but say that' a branch of this latter
flows behind Dahomy into the ocean—a fact (if such it
be) not unknown to Bosnian a century ago.
If I give yon the communications of my friend at
Tripoli; reason upon them as you may."
The following are extracts from the Mak. Gg4elbe of
t te 14th ult.;-- •
MALTA, Nov. l4.—A part of the Russian squadron,
consistiag of his Imperial Majesty's ships of the line
Azoffibearing the fi qr. of Rear Admiral Count L. de
Heiden), Gangoute, Ezekiel, and Alexander Neaysky,
with the Provorany and Castor frigates, and corvette
Gremiastschy, dropped anchor in the port of Valetta,
• on the Bth instant, having left Navarin on the 25th of
October. They ate remarkably fine vessels, and bear
evident marks (the Azoff in particular) of the closeness
and severity of the coeflict in wb chi they hive been
engaged.
His Most Christian Majesty's ship the Breslaw came
sin on the 7th instant from, the same quarter.
These ships, together with the British division, con-
• aisting of the Asia; Genoa. and Albion, ships of the
line; the Talbot frigate; Mosquito, Rose, Brisk, and
Philomel sloops of war; and Racer and Hind cutters
(whose arrival was noticed in our•last number) were
'admitted to pratique on Friday morning last, the 9th
• inst. his Excellency the Lieutenant Governor having
been induced to reduce the term of their quarantine to
16 days from the date of their last communication
• vrith Navarin, owing to the necessity of immediate re-
lief being afforded to the numerous wounded, and with
the view to facilitate the important object. of refitting
'the combined fleet, and of putting it again in a state
for service as speedily as possible; but this exemption
•iesttittly can& ed to his Majesty's ships which were
'actually engaged at Navarin.
This measure, which, on these grounds, his Excel-
lency deemed it expedient to adopt, under the possibility
of subjecting this island to a temporary quarantine• in
the Continental ports, was immediately communicated
officially to all the Foreign Consuls resident hem, for
the information of their respective Governments,
At eleven o'clock, A.M. on Friday,. his Excellency,
attended by' his Staff, and some of the principal Officers
'of the Civil Service, proceeded on board the flag Apo
of the English and Russian Admirals, and alma visited
his Most Christian Majesty's ship, the Breslaw, the
Captain of which was ssveiely wounded in the action.
On leaving the respective ships his Excellency was sa-
luted with the customary honours.
Yesterday morning at a quarter before eleven, the
principal Civil and Military Officers of this Government
na trarrison, asseisruicu int ,h% Cut•toOSShousemute
(where a guard t,f honour was stationed) to receive his
Excellency Vice Admiral Sir Edward Codrington .on
his 'landing. The Admiral on leaving the Asia was
loudly cheered by her.csow. and by those of the diffe.'
rent ships of the combined fleet, as he passed them in
succession.
His Excellency landed under a salute from Fort St.
Angelo, and was accompanied try the Bea. the Chief•
Justice and other, Civil and Military Officers to the
lace ofValette, where he was 1191COMed by his Excel-

lency the Lieutenant governor.
