Barbados paper containing the British ac-
Count of the action between the frigate CON

the re-capture of the latter Mr.. Chamber
lain states that after the escape of the Cyane,
the Constitution made signals fo- the Levant
to tack and stand into port, which she imme-
dately did, and reached the Island of st. ia
go, IN order to be under the protection of the
forts. and from which she was immediately
cut out, without respecting the neutrality of
the port. The squadron consisted of the Lee
ander, Newcastle and Phoebe frigates-The
last that was heard of them they were in
close chase of the Constitution. The Barba-
does paper that contained the above account
was either destroyed or mislaid

His M?issty's brig Fervent, capt Hotham, has de-
tanned and brought in with her, the Spanish brig Union
with cargo of slaves, from Bahama for HAVANA
There can be no doubt ofan order from Spain hav-
ing been received at HAVANA to enforce the laws of
the indies against all ieregn trade and to shut the
ports immediately against the ships Of all nations This
however IS a task not likely to be so easily accom-
pushed, as directed the Spanish colonies as may be
supposed. alter having been long benefited by an
almost free trade, not at all inclined at once to re-
nqush an intercourse lucrative and convenient as
that which they have been in the enjoyment of for so
many years AS there has been as yet no immediate
tempt to enforce the royal decree, It may he infer
red that there exists necessity of exer;nc tb hand
OF authority with caution.

SEIZURE OF GOODS IN GANAnA

Goods to a considerable amount have been
seized IN Upper Canada, on the Niagara from
tier, during the week past, owned principally
by the merchants and others of tins village =
we do not know what pretext is urged for ex-
ercsing such authority over goods regularly
entered at the custom-house Office, as we a-e
informed those in question have been. The
general impression is, that the property will
be given up.
We had, indeed, cherished hone. that the
inhabitants on both sides of these lines would
md 1t their interest to pursue a course tend
ing rather to heal than irritate the wounds
made on private feelings by the confagrations
and confusion experienced during the late
war.
