The following extract which we have
translated from the Leyden Gazette, is well
calculated to shew our countrymen, that
the pirates of the Mediterranean can be ca
silly brought to order.
~. I. Chron. Express.
FLORENCE, August 10.
Admiral Nelson has bombarded Algiers
for ten hours, without intermlssion. The
cause and the details Of the affair are as fol-
low:
An A!gerine feet met an English fri
gate near Malta, and summoned her to
bring to, but after receiving several broad
sides, the frigate escaped, and gained the
port of Malta. On receiving this informa-
ton, tive British ships ofthe line and two
fr4gates set out without delay in pursuit of
the Barbarian squadron, which they over
took, and sunk seven of their vessels.
On. the news of this defeat the Dey Of
Algiers lad all the English Agents thrown
into irons, and their property confscated.
Admiral Nelson, when informed Of this
barbarous reprisal, stationed himself before
Algiers with squadron to advance, and IN
the middle ofthe night commenced a brisk
fire of bombs and heated balls, which spread
fear and desolation through the city. The
Dey sent message to Lord Nelson, who
replied he could give no answer for several
hours, during which interval the lombard
ment continued without interruption, IN
such manner as to cause the most dread
ful ravages through the city. Afterwards
on second message from the Dey, with
new propositions, Lord Nelson demanded
that all the English Agents should be setat
liberty, and a complete indemnity be made
for the losses they had sustained, with the
releasement of all the captives. He exact
ed besides the sum of 100000 sequins, with

make either Tuseans or NeaPolitaas cap
tives.

and by 4 Just relation, their country sees their
ruin with indifference. The m~ercenares,
too, whom they keep in pay, continually in
tent on their own interest, sell them TO the
enemy, to profit by their spoils. Daher had
maintained for ten years, the wretch who
murdered him. 1t is a truth worthy ofre-
mark. that TIE greater part Of the African
and A.iatic states, especially since the days
of Mahomet, have been governed on these
principles, and that no part of the world has
exhibited SO many connections in its pro-
~vipces, or revolutions in its empires. Ought
we NOT then TO conclude, that arbitrary pow
er in the sovereign is no less fatal to the mill
tary strength, than the finances OF a nation ;
But let us proceed to enquire what are its eff
Esets on the civil government of Syria.
Tn Pacha, as being the image Of the Sui
tan, is the head of ali the police ofhis govern
ment; under which tide must be Conlpre-
hendcd criminal justice. lie posscsses the most
absolute power of lie and death, and this he
exercises without formality, and without APP
I peal. Wherever he meets with an offence,
he ORDERS the criminal TO De seized, and tbe
| eXecutioner, by whom lie is accompanied
strargles him, or takes Of his head upon
the spot nay, sometimes, he himself
does not disdain this Office. Three days be-
tore nay arrival ar Soar, DieZzaT had ripped
up I Mason with an axe. The Pacila frequent
iy strolls about Disguised, and woe to the
man whom he smpilzes ina fault But as he
cannot be present every where, he commits
this duty to 4 deputy, called the Wali, whose
Office resembles that of the OFFICERS de Guet
in France. Like them he patroles night and
day keeps 4 watchfui eve on the seditious
apprehends robbers and like the Pacha,
Judges and condemns without appeal. The
criminal bends his neck the cXecutioneI
strikes the head falls, and the body is car
ried OF in = leathern sack. This officer has
a multitude Of spies, who are almost al OF
them thieves, andly their means knows eve.
ry thing that passes. 1t is not, therefore, as
tonishing that cities like Cairo, Aieppo, and
Damascus, should be safer than Genoa,
Rome, or Naples but now dearly is this
safety purchased and how many innocen
lives are sacrificed to the partiality and in
justice Of the Wall and his agents!

rrbe fouowinq picture Of one of the forms

CThe following picture Of one of the forms
OF despotic government is drawn by Volney,
who visited Syria and Egypt in the years
i7S5, 1884, and l765. The evils, which are
detailed in this extract constitute but a small
part ofthe evils, which these political institu.
tions entail upon the people. In the Admins
tration of justice, in their religious system, in
the condition of the peasants, the artisans and
merchants, in the deep ignorance OF the peo-
pie, and in the whole of their moral charac-
ter. the enlightened Historian of the Syrian
NATION has found inexhaustible themes for
his indignant eloQuence.1

TO obtain suitable men; and when the gem
tlemen now in Office have rested on their
patriotism for SO long time as their pre-
sdecessors, it will be time enough to take
up these salaries, and increase them, if that
shall appear necessary.
