confined by that fattering but fatal complaint,
the consumption, which she bore with meek
ness and resignation, characteristics of the
sincere christian. She has left behind hus-
band and four children to deplore the irrepara-
bic loss of partner anc parent. But amidst
their grief the consoling thought, that her Inn

Capt. Milward, of the brig Levant, from
Algesiras, and last from Gibraltar, reports,
that on the 28th of November, the French
drove Ballasteros's army, about 5000 men,
under the guns of Gibraltar, with great
number of men, women and children: there
was great deal of firing and some killed on
both sides /: one Spanish general was said to
be badly wounded On the 29th the armed
ships, gun boats, sc. moored near the beach
opposite ST. Roche, where the French were,
and kept up constant fire the whole day
Two British regiments arrived from Tariff,
to assist the Spaniare.s but they re-embark
ed the next day on hearing the French had
reinforcement of 5000 men at Tariffa On the
lst of December it was rumored that most of
the French troops were marching towards
Tariha. Ballasteros's army marched through
the town of Gibraltar, and embarked on board
of transports prepared to receive them, bound
to Tariffa, some of the transports sailed with
the Levant. Capt. NJ. could not go on shore
to get his file Of newspapers, as no boat was
suffered to land during the enbarkation of the
troops. The French are said to have
from ID to 5000 men in the neighborhood.-
Markets, for provisions good; lumber no
sale; fish do Aonr and rice good; indian

In late number of this vehicle Of treason
and falsehoud we find an article, affecting to
be a comparison between the present war
and that of the revolution bus IN reality, a
most foul and malicious dispersion Of the Adj
Rinis,ratinn-Such superlative impudencc.
such unblushing falsehood, one would hard
~ expect TO meet with in the columns even
Of a prostitpte paper: The object Of the war
now as in rs, is for Independence against
British domination and monopoly, and none
but traitors will deny it. There is no doubt
that thousands would make their fortunes by
a surrender Of our national independence to
g. Britain; bot thisis uoargumentagainst the

progresses It will not do for the energy Of
the nation to be palsied by the machna.ions
