Insarrectian at Guadaloute.-By the ark
val yesterday morning of the brig Aseona,
Captain Watson, in s days from st. Croix'
we learn, that an intended instruction at Qua
daloupe has been lately discovered and the
leaders arrested and secured. The scheme
was planned by two Frenchmen, who, at the
time the Island was surrendered to the b1-
fish. were permitted to remain on their parole
of honor without taking the oath OF aliegl-
ance. One of these, Mons. Davite, mer-
chant Of high standing at Point Petre, was to
have been, in case of success, the governor
Of the Island, and the other, who was former
ly an aid to Enough, was to have been the
military chieftain. :.
The Insurgents had been secretly supplied
with five thousand stand of arms by merchants
at St. Bartholomew. 1t said, that the plan
was thoroughly organized, and every part OF
it in readiness for execution and that about
an hour before the general slaughter was to
have commenced, a violent dispute arose be-
tween the two civil and military leaders, which
disarmed them of their discretion, and led to a
discovery CT the plot. These particulars were
received at st. Croix, on the slst OF October,
by packet from ST. Thomas.

PHILADELPHIA, November 30.

Were we to hear that in Ireland poor man
had been shot in cold blood by an officer OF
the British government merely for attempting
TO procure little salt for the consumption OF
his family, certain papers in this country
would be filled with the most pathetic lamen-
tations, and the whole nation would be called
upon to synpathise with the people OF that
country for the cruel oppression under which
they are doomed to suffer. But we have seen
in the very heart of this free country an unfor-
,unate citizen deliberately murdered BY one
of Mr.. Madison's revenue officers for attempt
inc, by an evasion of wicked and tyrannical
law, to procure few bushels OF salt which
could be obtained in no other way, and with
out which the winters stock Of provisions for

Gen. Don Francisco Ballasteros, under date
the 25th instant from his camp at Ximena,
which has been delayed no doubt by contrary
winds.
MosT EXCELLENT SIR,
haste to communicate to your Excellen-
cy for the information of their Royal High
nesses the Council of Regency, the complete
victory which has been obtained on this day,
by the arms of his majesty. General Rig
noux, with division of 5000 men, chiefly
Grenaders, united with the other division
which defeated on the nineteenth at Alcala,
had been for nine days maneuvering In front
of our present position, but has finally fallen
into the snare which / had laid for him, by
our repeated movements and the activity OF
the troops, l have the honor to command.
Having by these means been able to surprise
him, we engaged him and finally put him to
flight, in the direction of the camp OF st.
Roche, Notwithstanding a most obstinate re-
sistance-It is now | O'Clock in the morning,
and my troops are in close pursuit at their
heels, over the most unequal and rugged
mountains, in direction of Alcala, the only
place they can find refuge in their present ST.
tuation. At this moment number OF prl-
soners are brought in, among them captain
of Grenadiers, and a Col. of the Polish intan-
try, No. 4.
The loss of the enemy has been horrible
but cannot at present detail the eircumstan-

his wife and children could not be preserved.
Yet the fact is deemed of so little importance
as not to deserve even to be mentioned IN the
republican papers. The people have very pa.
tiently submitted to the loss of their COM
merce and prosperity to crafty the Partially
of their nnfeeling rulers but we can hardly
believe that they have become SO sptltless as
to suffer themselves to be shot, llke wolves,
by the minions of power, withoutAso much as
the fortnality of trial, for no other crime
than that of endeayoring to procure the neces-
saries of life.

the present DEAFNESS must continue and In

cial licences for American vessels to import
Rice free of duty, and without any obligation
to re-export French produce or manufactured
articles. We enclose for your government
t,ro fornla account of a shipment OF rlce' and
invite you to apply to Messrs. -

We shall charge per cent. on the amount
of sales for our commissions, and that OF the

and per cent. Oh the amount OF returns, II
any should be ordered. The demand tor TO-

one month ago, on account of large sales ex-
