LATEST FROM THE MEDITERRANEAN

BY the schooner S.ne-qua Non, from g ibTaltsr
and Malaga, we learn, on the authority Of the
Consul Of he United STATES at Malaga, that on
the Both October 1t was reported at Gibraltar
that the Algerne squadron, then at sea, had cap
tured an American ship and Brig and that the
Dey had been beheaded for making bad treaty
with the United States. The report came thro'
Oran, and other I3arbafy ports.
The Consul gives It as his opinion that this in.
formation cannot be correct, because the Alge
rine squadron Fe-entered the Mediterranean on
