CONVOY were French, when on their capture. IN

theush it was reported that a French fleet was
expected at Laguayra to enforce the demand.

refused TO give the satisfaction demanded by the
Captain of the French brig of war. and that he
had sailed from Laguayra, declaring that he

negro boy named NELSON, who was bound as an
apprentice to a Mr.. John Forester, to learn the
Blacksniths trade, and continued with him FIVE or
six years. He lived several years in Baltimore,
and may possibly be lurking about there at this
time. He was seen three or four months ago in the
country, a few miles above Baltimore. L think il
probable he has obtained II free pass. Nelson was
raised near Wesimorclaud Court. house: he is about
5 feet 10 or II inches high, and well proponioped

from the Press, the second edition of Mr.. James N.
GarneHs Lectures on Female Education; and to
express the hope, that ifthcy thought the first a de-
sirable purchase, they will deem the one which he
now sifers, much more so.-This has been carefully
revised and corrected by the author himself; who
has added n Preface, in which a summary view is
taken OF the principal obstacles tn the progress of
Education in general, but particularly to that of
Females. Mr.. Garnett has also annexed a Code
of Maxims, entitled "Ine Gossip's Manual, or

6oM ssres and all ages beyond chitdA ood'--the OBJ
Jcct OF which will be best explained by its perusal.

TO extend their information, and to Increase their

II not that the latter power is proverbial for her
pride and obstinacy, we should wonder that n

had been landed at Matanzas, and eleven more
OF her hands were put on board a schooner

respect as a very valuable prize. She was pnt

CoLUMBTA-PERU-AND MEXICO.


The fast sailing Sch,. Alisanna, Captain
Southcomb, arrived at this port last night in
thirteen days from Laguayra. The intelligence
relating to commerce received by this arrival
will be found in our Commercial Record.
Captain Southcomb statse, that a French brig
of war had arrived at Laguayra to demand salts
tisfactioD for an insult said to have been Of
fered TO the naval flag of France.-Tbe cir
Gums ances are thus reported: Capt. Chitty, a
distinguished officer in the Columbian service,
while cruising of Carthagena in the Columbian
corvette Venezuela, fell in with the French
brig of war Gazelle, then bound, as it is said, TO
Martinique, and not liking her appearance, or
dered the Captain on board with his papers.
With this order the French Captain complied,
without remoBstrance or resistance, although
the respective vessels were of equal force.-On
his arrival at Martinique tic Captain of the
Gazclle was broke and dismissed the navy, and
a brig ofwar, as has been stated, was dispatched
TO Laguayra to demand satisfaction from the Co
lumbar authorities.
Upon this statement it is only necessary to
observe, that French cruisers in the West In
dies have had, for some time past, but = very
equivocal character with respect To the Pa
triots, and there may have been c%ircumstan-
ces sufficiently evident TO Justify the suspicious
Of Captain Guilty. 1t will be rccollectcd that
