The Minerva (arrived off the Isle of Wight) spoke
a ship off the Cape, on the 27th of May, for Botany
Bay, with convicts, that sailed from England on the
17th March. The convicts had attempted to take
possession of the ship. Twenty of them %%ere, shot,
and the remainder subdued ; further particulars' stolid
not be learned, as it blew a gale at the time. A boat
put some letters on board the Minerva, but it was
impossible for the Officer to get on board.
A circumstance has occurred at Santa Cruz, which
we hope will 'Weise the attention of- his Majesty's
Government. The master of the Stafford merchant
ship, who is also an Officer in the British navy, had
a dispute with an English sailor, which detained him
on shore longer than usual, on the evening appointed
for the departure of Iris *hip from Teneriffe. It is
not permitted on the island that any person should
embark alter dusk, and centinels are placed to pre-
vent the infraction of this order. The master, in this
situation, attempted to take water in his boat, when
he was obstructed by the sentinel on duty. Indignant
at this interruption, he lifted up the oar, and levelled
A blow, as it is alleged, at the soldier, but as he asserts,'
at the sailor, who was also interposing. The centinel
advanced with his bayonet presented, when he was,
forced back by some person, whom the public accu
ser declared to be a Mr. Worse, now acting in the
station of Supercargo, although the nephew of a Ge-
neral of immortal memory. Seven military officers
were termed into a tribunal, and both the Master and
Mr. WOLFS were tried for this insult or circumven-
tion as to the centinel on duty. The Master was sen-
tenced to tour months imprisonment, but the Super.
cargo was acquitted ; yet they are both confined, be.
'cause the Governor will not confirm the sentence of
acquittal, declaring that he has sent to the Court of
Made id to receive Instructions from his Sovereign.—
Mr. Bence. the British Consul; has in vain interposed,
and it ought to be made known, that an English
agent, in a responsible situation, is treated with ne-
glect and indifference at this dependency of the Spa.

Saturday night, about ten o'clock. while Mr. Wil.
ham Drake, landlord of the King's Arms public-
house, King's street, Southwark. was busy in his bur
attending on his customers, and• his wife and serving
likewise employed, and the parlour and tap.room
lull, some villains, who it is supposed had confede-
rates drinking in the house, and on the alert, pro-
ceeded up stairs unperceived, arid by means of pick-
lock kels, entered his bed-room, and opened his
bureau, which cher robbed of 420 in bank notes, £8
in silver, a gold ring, pearl ear.rings, a silver punch-
ladle, and other valuable articles, likewise a large
painting that hung up in the room, with which they
decamped without discovery.
A fatal accident occurred on Thursday morning
last, at the bottom of the hill at Potter Newton, on
the way from Chapeltown to Leeds. A woman of
the name of Snowden, with pn infant in her arms,
bad taken her passage in Wood's cart front Knares-
borough to Leeds, whith, in descending the hill,
passed too near the causeway, and was upset ; the
driver, the woman, and the child, being all thrown
into the road, with the boxes resting upon them.
Some butchers' boys passing that way came to their
relief. On removing the boxes, it was found that
one of them had fillets upon the head of the mother,
who was scarcely freed from the pressure before she
expired. The child received no material injury, and
the ,Iriver, though considerably bruised, was able to
pursue his journey.—The same day a Coroner's In.
quest sat on the b,Aly of the deceased, and returned
4 verdict of—Accidental Dead.. -
