goetion frigate John Adams, which passed
on Tuesday, and were received in town

siuu, that America has fought and bled to obtain
that independence, which she knows nut how to
enjoy.

No Official Communication has yet been made
on thtrsubject of India. Some particulars that
have been stated from private accounts, are said to
be exaggerated—but the general facts, unfortu.
nately, appear to be but too true.

GENERAL ERNOUP, it seems, has put arms into
the hands of the Negroes in Guadeloupe to resist
the meditated attack of our troops. This mea-
sure has probably a tno.fold object—for if the
bland should, as indeed is expected, fall iato out
hands— it will be thus rendered a troublesetne ac. ,
quisition. The independence of Domingo has,
in all human probability, laid a move solid
foundation for the final extinction of the Slave
Trade, than even the matchless exertions of the
Friends of Humanity and Religion in Great
Britain. The large island of St. Domingo will,
perhaps, be a difficult point in a negociation foe
peace. Is it to be abandoned by France? Will
England submit to countenance a fresh attempt,
of Neteotxott at the subjugation of that island ?
There can be little doubt that the. Independence
of St. Domingo must -finally lead to the Indepena
deuce of every other Island in which the Africans
are the cultivators of the soil.

acquainted with the state of our establishments in
that country, and in particular with the relative
Intention of the Civil and Military Servants of the
Company. • The Officers, serving in that country
have frequently complained- that the fatigaes aud
privatilms they had to undergo did not receive an
adequate remuneration. The hardship of their si-
tuation heti been considered to be aggravated,
when compared with the facility with which the
persons in civil employments acquired a sufficient
fortune to induce them to return to their native
country at a period sufficiently early to citable
them to enjoy the fruits of their labolir. This
comparison has been a source of dissatisfaction
for more than thirty years. The following state-
