FROM MALAGA.
CHARLESTON, Dec. 6.


The chooner Weafel, capt. Brewfter, IS
DAYS from Malaga, anchored off the Fort this
morning. The accounts by this veliel Rate,
,hat the peltilence at Malaga had nearly ceafed r;
but the htuation ofthe inhabitants of that place,
and the country adjacent, was diitrcfling in the
extreme, from the want of proyilions-whea
was telling at the enormous price OF three dol
lars per buihel and even at this price could
only be obtained by favour. Reports at Mdla-
"a rated, that the peftilence had extended to
Alicaut and Barcelona. In Valcntia great num-
hers were carried of but it was hoped that
the wcfwardly winds which generally prevail
IN September, would check the difeaie.
