Among the many anecdotes which we have heard
related of the cool undaunted courage of the British,
it is w9rthy of record that previous to the late attack
of our girt upon Algiers, an old and gallant Officer
(Major G ) of the Royal Marines. who being con-
fined to his cabin from a violent fit of the gout, in-
sisted upon being taken to the upper deck, where he
was placed to a chair, and remained directing and
cheering his men dut iag the whole of the engagement.
The fallowing narrative of the recent sufferings of
our countrymen at Algiers is stated to be derived
Ivan a source which entitles it to implicit Credit
" Captain Das.iwood. and Mr. M'Manut, the Surgeon of the
Pr's:tie:bens, and some :tore I'4ll6ll:nen sibs assisted in effecting
the Escape of the Lnglish Consul's family at Algiers, and who were
unfortunately detected in constquence of the child's crying, were
in great danger of losing their beads, and would certainly have
suffered it it had tint been tor the interposition of the American
Consul. They were put (mu a large vault filled-with vermin and
filth, where they remained all night. They had mats to rest on
upon a ramp fluor, and had nothing to refresh themselves but
bad bread and water. They were tantalized with a p omise that
they. should be p.rmitted to go on board ship, but were marched
iron one prison to ..nuther. , They were well treated by some
Sicilian slaves. The Minister refused them when they appled
Ihr more bread ; but the Captain of the part sheared some coin-
!passion, and ordered refreshments for theM, directing the guards
'to treat them well. The shires then gum them milt, dcc. They
wereffterwarck moved to what is catled the King's Prison, Un-
der an escort of soldiers, and marched through the town, insulted
on the way by Moors, Jews, and Turks, who even spate in their
faces. • The Dey thought proper to send the Consul's child on
board. Ihe American Consul condoned bis kinduets, and the
Swedish Consul also ties very attentive, anti supfited theft with
books, pent, and paper. The Engli.h were anon afar put into
irons, and in that state were manned about twelve Mites across
the country ; and baiting a -short time in a place where cattle
were confine, were obliged to re time their journey. Their res
freshment was boiled corn and water. "I bey were then placed
in'another prison, but soon heard thik they were to be marched
back to Algiers, to which place, after having encamped on the
bank of a river which had recently Wert over/lawn, they were
afterwards brought. Then they were confined in'k large build-
ing pa the south side of the town, where they remained in doubt,
anxiety, and apprehension as to what would be their future fate._
At length the English were relieved from their irons and marched'
down to the Marina, and put into possession of triiir own boats.
Their situation would have been deplorable indeed, if k bad not
been for the persevering kind ofices of the Ainetscan.Consul.—
The country over Which these unfortunate travgliars were passed
appeared to be in a desolate condit ion' covered chidy with under-
stood. 1 bey crossed an cliensivelhain, stated to be, according
to report, about 2000 miles iu length, and 50 ht breadth. lbe
.soil seemed to be fertile in many parts, and with good mower.
it may easily be cnui.eived that our poor countrymen were in a
melancholy condition, with the prospect of death before them,
as they were often, Signs, threatened that their beads would
