TRIESTE, JULY R.

Since the re-establishment of peace in Europe, thel
Emperor Alexander has not ceased to manifest to the
Sublime Porte his desire of seeing the-freedom of the
Itllian Seas secured, and the termination of the in-
sults of the Barbary% States. Lively affected by the
late misfortunes that have befallen some Christians,
his Majesty has had it notified to the Divan, that re-
garding the influence of his arms necessary in the
cause of humanity, he would unite with the other
Powers against the pirates.
We are amused that the Grand Seignior has ad.
Tressed some new firmauni to the ttiree'Regencies.
in favour of the carom, rce of the natives allied with
Russia, ordering them to protect it, and to repress
the pirates, and to prevent them from violating those
treaties of which the Sublime Porte k guarantee to.
wards the lnlserial Courts of Russia and Austria.
The firmaun of the Grand Seignior to the Dry of
Algiers, respecting the commerce of Austria, has,
been published, the. following is a- copy : the same
has been sent to Tanis and Tripoli.
" In the Treaties existing between the Sublime
Porte and the Imperial Court of Austria, it is ex-
pressly stipulated, not only that the navigation of all
merchant ships, Austrian, and belonging to the sub-
jects of his Majesty the Emperor of Austria, which
are protected by flags and letters patent, shall be
pi-Armed against every injury, but als r in the said
stipulation the Sublime Porte guarantees their secu-
rity against every hostile attack on the part of Ole
Barbary Powers, as well as of all other Corsairs
which are subject to it.
so In consequence the faithful and constant accom-
plishment of existing Treaties carries with it the fie-
cessity, that the navigation of Austrian merchant
ships do not experience the least prejudice on the part
of the three Cantons and of enjoining you--your
Commandant and Hey of Algiers, the, formal and
reiterated order of the Grand Seignior, that in all
cases wherein Austrian ships shall- in open sea meet
the Corsairs of your Canton, no injury Shall be in:
flitted On them; their Commanders, sailors, passen-
gers, crew, ship, or cargo ; and that in cfatformity
with the usual &ensue with which-the Captains will
be provided, they be not only protected, but even
that your Canton must exert itself to favour their
navigation ; and in case of contrary winds, or com-
mercial affairs should compel the Captains to enter
or abide in the harbours of your Canton, they shall
enjoy, in consequence of the good intelligence and
good friendship subsisting between the two Powers,
they, their sailors and passengers, the most especial
prosect ion.
" The exprest intention of the Grand Seignior it
to support and strengthen the good harmony that
subsirte betwen the two Imperiat`triendly and neigh.
'bowing Courts; and as soon as it shall reach your
knowledge, you will not delay in fulfilling it with
all convenience-4n executing this order of the Qrand
Seignior—in avoiding or preventing every thing that
may-tand to the colltrary.".

• CONDUIT OF T. li E PORTUGUESE.
.—., .
•
• The Portuguese of late have not treated the Bil•
tish with that iespeet and friendship which they have
deserved at their hands. The following case reached
us yesterday :—The ship Philippa, Capt. NICHOLLS,
bound to the East Indies, toadied at Fort Praya, at
the Isle isk St. J ago, on the 18:11 of May, with A view
of .obtaining a supply of water and refreshments.—
Therfound lying in the harbour the ship Mulgrave
Castle, C.iptain RALPH, put in there in distress,
having struck on the rocks that run off the north-
east point ot 13 mavista ; and the Captain cf the Phi.
lippa being solicited by her commander to take part
id the Mulgrave Castle's cargo on board to the Cape.
•he agreed to the proposition for a certain' sum, in or.
der that the damaged ship might proceed to Rio Ja-
neiro for repairs. The Commander of the Philippa,
in agreeing to the accommodation proposed, highly
incensed splint him the f'prtuguese Governor Don
ANTONIO DE CtiNUNTItCs DE LANCASTIII. Although
the British paid him every respect due to his au-
thority, he persecuted them to the utmost of his
power, and for no other reason than because the
Philippa was likely to be the means of wresting
out of his hands . a valuable British property which
he had calculated on getting into his possession:
—The Commander of the Philippa and Captain
RALPH were treated by the Governor on their first
landing with marked disrespect. They were imme
diately summoned before him, and after being obli-
ged to hear the most violent language used in ex-
pressing leis detestation of the English nation in ge-
neral, he placed both the officers under arrest, and
then ordered a survey of the Mulgrave Castle, with.
the full intention of detaining her as incapable of pro-
secuting her voyage. The Governor beat to arms as
soon as the surveying officer landed, fired two shots
at the British ships, and it was with much difficulty
he was prevailed on to alter his determination of
sinking them by an officer under him. The two
officers of the Philippa were next confined in a com-
mon gaol, without a hearing, and bad for a compa-
nien a criminal for murder ! The Philippa was put
in possession of fifty soldiers, and Captain HAREM-
Tiflis who was passenger in the Philippa, was forced
on shore, who, with the Commander, from that period
were' considered to be prisoners on parole. After this
violence, the govein.ir, weighing, it was supposed, the
consequtnee of his conduct, thought proper to be
=We mo.ierate in his proceedings, and there was a
probability of Lis permitting the vessels to proceed on
their destinations about the latter end of May.—
Meanwhiie the officers an passengers entered a Pro-
test against the violence of his proceedings, of which
the following is a VW :
" SlR—Having received your Excellency'd permission for the
British ship Plulina and Mulgrave Castle to proceed on their

This morning we received one of the missing par-
cels, which should have reached us some days ago,
from Jamaica, containing details relative to the war in

SOUTH AMERICA.

Before proceeding to give any extracts. we Must
correct a mistake in the STAR of Wednesday. It WAS
net at the end of April, but on the 39th of March,
that Admiral BanviN sailed. He reached Los Festigns
on the lit of May, and on the bole away to the
Westward. The rest of the extract was correct, but
instead of being an extract fiom two Bulletins, proves
to have been an extract from the first Bulletin only.
We now insert a copy of the
