Extract of a letter received this morning from Bom-
bs v, dsted May :

We are sorry to state that the Cholera Mcrbus has
mane its appearance in this island, and is carrying off
from 6 to 7 hundred per day ; and its dreadful
Lisages are not confined to the natives, but that
Europeans were also falling victims to this dreadful
malady. His :Majesty's 47th and 56th regiments,
which had returned from the expedition up the Persian
(ittlph, has but slightly felt it at the date of this let-
ter. The greatest precaution bad been taken by the
authorities. All Europeans not belonging to the
Wand were ordered to quit, in consequence of which
the mercantile interest bears a very gloomy appear-
ore. Trade is at a complete stand, scarcely any
cotton to be had ; and the Company's ships that bad
arrived, were about leaving Bombay, half loaded with
other cargoes. Merchandise had experienced a great
rise. Oar news from the interior, states, some skir-
mishing hart taken place at Itotalkundirtb, with the
notorious Hiu *u SLNO. The expedition to Palem-
bang has greatly embarrassed the authorities in
Jaya. The government has determined to make
another attempt, but it is supposed that the state
of their Treasury word not admit of a fresh arma-
ment. The heavy duties levied on the produce of
the country has completely annihilated foreign
commerce; and American vessels that had arriv-
ed at Batavia with specie, for the purpose of
traling, had departed without any cargo. The
Malay population of Java are greatly discontented with
their present master, and are ready to join in any way
that may effect a change. The general opinion in
B .mbay respecting the late expedition up the Persian
Oulph, was very unfavourable. it having east the go-
vernment an immense sum, and the inhabitants a great
deal of anxiety. The company's ships, Bari of BM-
cora', Thames, Warren Hastings, Thomas Coutts,
as.; Free lediaman, hare arrived safe.

season than any former period. Very unfavourable
weatlief has been experienced fur a kog time."
Extract of a Letter from St. Helena, ?.d August.—
Bonaparte still continues as malty as ever, bat he is in
gu.,.1 health, seldom walks abroad, and receives but
little rompany.

The accounts received from the Continent for some
days put, respecting the important interests which
are at issue there, though not se clear. matiatisfactory
in all respect, as might be wished, are calculated to
relieve in a considerable degree, the anxiety of the
friends of peace and liberty. To .appose that all at
once the extraordinary impetus which had been given
to the newly-mnancipated nations, would stop and
t linly settle, and that the tietablisbroents, the interests,
and the prejudices against which it had been directed.
would sot re-act and endeavour to recover the petition*
from which they bad been so suddenly and reluctantly
displaced, world be to expect occurrences incona-
p itible with the course of nature. in the political,
as well as natural world, great convulsions are loc.
rented by those slighter agitations which continuo
for a while, but gradually subside. The raging
wares are, ea the cessation of the storm, followed
by a heavy swell ; and the thaw that dissolves
the lee of the polar regions, may occcasion for a season
obstructions that embarrass the navigation of the
u eau. To such phenomena may the great convulsion*
that have recently occurred in tie political weld
abroad be not inaptly compared. Nations that had
been frown by the ehiLling influence of despotism have
• yin a moment burst their bonds asunder; the Naha; of

"large cetniasalties that had been sunk into apathy
hare been suddenly animated and roused; and the
spirit of imitspendempo newly felt and strongly excited.

iaditea, be not at once prepared to coalesce with that
subordination which is expedient to the general good.
The inhabitants of Sicily, though catching the 6re ei
freedom from the sacred flame that burst from,
Naples, at the same moment that they became
animated with a determination to repassed' 8
tonstitatiesal government. sought to establish ,rho

Sicily, we see limposed to hope that an amicable se-
raagemeat Wpm' the kingdoms is both practicable
and probable. According to seams etateelesu the
