Satu:s.lay rnon.ing arrived ti; SHEARwArtr, sloop
of war, D. Cox, from the Jamaica station,
10 be olf—,he left Jamaica the ?9th of January,
!farm:nal: the 23d of Febru.iry, aad Charleston the
: s:le took 1:;0,000 dollars from Port

nut: chants at Chai leston, and brought
:.bout 200,300 to Enghtod. The BEAVER, Captain
:;aumArti.z, may be daily expected to arrive here:
sat is to bring a large freight of specie from Port
.1:.o).d. The communications between Jamaica and

the Main of South America had not been frequent :
does not bring news of the Independent forces.—
tro,:ps Jamaica were particularly healthy ;as
v. ere the ships generally. The IPIIIGENIA had been
very sickly. Sir HomE POPHAM was recovering
from a severe paralytic attack. The SYBILLE, Capt.
POPIIAM, had3ailed for Vera Cruz ; WAsP, Captain
T. W. CARTER, for Campeachy ; SAPPHIRE, Captain
BART, for Carthagena ; and the ONTARIO, Captain
Gost.rsc, for Port-au-Prince. _ _

The LEANDER, 60 guns, bearing the flag of Rear- I
-Admiral Sir HENRY BLACKWOOD, K.C.B. for the
East Indies, has been in vet), imminent danger at
Madeira. She had a quick run of only five days to
that idand, and was preparing to leave it, when, in
getting under weigh, the capstan upset ; two other
rarchors were let go, but they did not take hold,
-when the cables were instantly cut, in just sufficient
time to rirevent her driving on shore.
Advices from the Isle of France have been re-
c.( ived to the 22d of December. Though only a
few days later in date, they contain many addi-
tional particulars concerning the malignant dis-
c-der prevalent there. The number of blacks who
} td fallen victims to its violence within a few
Vecks exceeded 2000. The white inhabitants, with
very few exceptions, had been free from attack.
—The fatal quality of the disease was much ag-
Fravated by the ignorance which prevailed con-
cerning its true nature. By some of the phvsi-
c;ans it was denominated the cholera morbus, while
(Alm described it as a species of the plague.—
The effects of the terror produced by this disorder,
ia putting a stop to nearly all transactions in business,
hwe been before mentioned. The desertion of Port
Louis by all men of property had induced the Go-
-1.,:1n0r to issue a Proclamation, suspending, for one
r loin!), the payment of every species of debt or pe-
cuniary obligation ; a step which, under other cir-
cJrnstances, would have been deemed extraordinary,
but which had been rendered imperative by the pe-
caiiar sittertion of the island. He had also prohibited
the intercourse with the Island of Bourbon, all ships
coming from thence being required to perform qua-
rantine for forty days. the disease was supposed to
have been introduced into the Isle of France by the
Tueaze frigate, but in what manner is not explained.
The Rocnvorer, of SO guns, Captain A. GREEN,
N. Lich lately arrived at Portsmouth, from the Medi-
tert :mean, received pratique on Tuesday, when Lady
IREMANTLE, Commissioner WOOLEY, and their fa-
landed at that port, and the ship sailed the
r.e:.t morning for the Little Sore, where she is ordered
to be paid off all standing, and then to be recom-
rni:,sioned for the flag of Vice-Admiral Sir GRAHAM
11cort E. All die Officers are likely to be re-appointed.
the is a pet feet man of war, and does much honour
to the Captain and the Officers concerned, for having
/ler in such high order and discipline. Of a crew of
G3V n:en. only two have died since the ship left Eng-
iatrd, and those from accidents.
