An impor NJ piece of intelligence
has been receiyed from Sweden.-Tht
Crown Prince, the intended Successor
10 the Usurper OF the Throne OF Gus.
tavus, is dead. lie was reviewing
some troops in the neig hbourhoo6 oil
Relsingsorg, when he suddenly fell
from his horse and expired. The Got
tenburg Papers attribute it to an apop-
lexy the reports Of private persons
assign poison as the cause, and that
this was asccrtained on an examination
ofthe body after his decease. Men
are apt 10 suppose that when Princes
die suddenly, their deaths are occa-
stoned by violent means. We find,
however, that the Crown Prince had
been previously unwell, though the
Stockholm Gazette of the 25th, four
DAYS before his decease, states that he
had recovered from his indispositlon,
and was able to continue his Journey.
Had poison been the cause, his death
would have been more lingering. We
should not have found him able to re-
view troops and Sit on horseback only
the moment before he died. His death
has given great confidence TO the party
that espouses he cause of the Son Of
Gustayus-an instruction is said to
have taken place in his favor at Stock
holm.
A passenger on board a trading ship
Just arrived from Cadiz, informs US,
tfat JOSEPH BoNAPARTE had very
narrow escape on his late journey from
Grsnada 70 Madrid. A number Of
armed peasants, in order to intercept
him, concealed themselves in one Of
the sinuossities of the Sierra Moreno,
and on sudden made their appearance
and discharged several rounds Some |
of the balls pierced the carriage of the /.
nsurptr, and killed two of his atten-
dants, bat the principal design was not |
accomplished.

In reply to your note, left late last
night a: my house, the information /
have concerning the double duty on
timber, | had yesterday from Mr..
Blackbnrne. M. P. as follows -
That the duty on Oak timber, of
AL sorts. is to take place on the lst Of
Jan. next and on Fir, and all other
sorts, in jan. after, (say 1929 On
which MIR. Blackburn Justly remarks,
that the next session will give us suf-
iicient time to counterfeit both.
" 1t appears to me, that government
have gone too far to withdraw the bill
in toto. That on receiving the several
memorials, the ministers found they
were wrong in the measure partially
represented to them, by interested spe-
culators, and that by putting the dates
at the above distances, they have rem
dered the bill harmless without with
drawing it."

"The brig Blanchy, capt Cotton, which
mentioned in my last as being the only
American vessel at this place, was to have
departed for Baltimore about the middle OF
April, but an unexpected occurrence has
changed her destination she has beenc char
tered by the French Vice Consul, Charge
d'Affairs Of France here, to carry him to
Narseilies, he having been ordered by the
Dey TO quit the Regency in "a hours, in
consequence of dispute between them rel
alive to a prize brought in by French pri-
vateer and as there was no other vessel in
the port ready to take him within SO short
a period, Col Lear has consented to her
gong TO France as a cartel-This affair hap
pened the 30th of March. The brig sailed
with the Consul on the first Of April, and is
to return here Immediately in ballast, and
IS now expected, and is to depart for The IT,
S. Immediately on her return. The Dey
says his dispute is merely personal with this
Consul, he has permitted several French
vessels to depart since it happened. But
think il will be regarded in different lighs
in France.
This is such poor place for business,
that scarce single article for expectation
can be found

well with this Regency at present. Our
annuities are all paid up. The ship Re
