The schr. Hornet. arrived last evening
from Philadelphia, brought in MIR. JUAN
AoHoNoDo, late mate Of he Spanish schr.
Diamond, Capt. ChristOval Solar, lost on
Cape Romain last Thursday night. From
Mr.. Achonodo and the captain of the Hor-
net we have learnt the following melancho
ly particulars of this event.
The brig Diamond sailed about 50 DAYS
ago, from HAVANA for the coast of Africa.
mounting six guns and carrying com
element of fifty men, After being 10 or
90 days at sea, she encountered severe
gale.of wind on the 10th hugast, in lat.
80, long. so, w. in which she lost beth her
masts, and experienced other damage.
After clearing the wreck and rigging Jury
masts, she bore away for the first port, AID
was fallen in with on Thursday last, by
the schooner Hornet, Capt Mailman from
Philadelphia, who put OH board of her Cap
tain Gardner, a passenger in the Hornet.
who being acquainted with the coast, a.
greed TO take charge of aud bring lie- in
Unfortunately, however, in the afternoon,
he mistook the wiDd-m mill on Cape komain
for Charleston Light, and stood for it ac-
iordingly. She soon grounded, the wind
blowing fresh from the N. Il. The Hor-
net being near her, came to anchor and
rendered every assistance practicable, by
taking out clothing, goods, &c. In the
course of the evening whilst all hands in
both vessels were thus engaged, the Dia-
mODd dritted of, leaving her boat with the
nate and five men on board the Hornet.
about eleven o'clock, it still continuing TO
blow fresh, the Hornet parted her cables,
and was compelled to stand off. Tie last
fiat was seen Of the Diamond, she was fir.
ing great guns and musketry, as If in the
greatest distress, and Immediately after
the lights in her rigging suddenly disap-
peared. This was about nine O'clock, and
the people on board the Hornet concluded
that she had gone to pieces, and every soul
had perisaed. The next morning the Hor-
net, having been blown off considerably.
beat up near the shore, but could discover

Since the fatal issue Of this expedition
the Algerines have continued their depre.
datiens on the christian nations, when
not subsidized by them, to the present
day. Many expeditions have been, with
various success, undertaken against them
by the different European powers, the
history of which is very interesting. The
result of all seems to have been, that il
is eheaper tob buy their friendship, than to
compelit. The Dey once told an Iii.
glish consul that the Algerines were a
company ofrogues, and that he was their
captain. Most ifnot all commercial ma
tons have recently been content to pre-
serve peace with them at the expence Of
an annual subsidy. and some OF them
