Mohammed states that every body was
in arms in the whole States of Algiers,
where, however, great apprehension was
felt respecting the issue of the approach
ing contest.
All the accounts that arrive from Tou-
lon confirm what we have said of the ar
dor of the troops, both of the army and
navy; and there is such an cagcrncss In
the army to Join the expedition, that cap
tains have offered to serve as private SOL
diers. Ii is thought that the young men
of the navy cannot be prevented from
joining the army in the operations OF the
siege.
AEcani, AprH l4.-Thc packet has ar
rived with letters from Algicrs. The
Consus had retired into the country, and
sent their families to Mahon. The Dcy
strongly urges the completion ofthc works
of defence. The bate: les arc augment
cd, and new ones arc erected on all sides.
The garrison is computed at from 10000
to l2 900 men, who were manUuvrngi
every day. The Dcy prosidcs, and dis
tributes the prizes to the combatants, who
exercise in the arena. The French en-
pcdition is expected towards the end of
May. 1t is the prevailing opinion that
the Dcy will find it difficult to resist, cs-
pccially on the land side; but stout re-
sistancc is expected if the BodOun Arabs
from the interior approach to harrass the
landing of the troops. The castle which
contains the treasure is undermined.
LONDON, May 6.
We adverted yesterday to the parties
of Swiss, who have lately taken their
passage from Havre to New York, and
we commended the foresight and prudence
displayed in the mode of their emigra-
ton To-day our letters from Liverpool
state that some of our cOuntrymen prOAl
cecding from that port to the back settle
mcnts in the United States, instead go
ing by New-York, proposed to sail toI
Now Orleans and thence go up the Mis-
sissippi in steam boats until reaching the
Ohio.
The American ships the Great Britain
and the Oxford lately sailed from Havre
for New York, having large number of
Swiss agriculturists on board. I or 8
ships have already, within the last month
carried away from 500 to 600 laboring
and industrious men, whose emigration
the Government Of the United States
wisely favors. 1t ispleasing to observe
that these Colonists, on their arrival at
Havre, so far from responding, manifest,
on the contrary, an air of gladness and
hope so seldom to be met with on the
countcnance of other strangers about to-
leave their country. Far from being re-
duced by want to expatriate themselves,
most ofthese Swiss proceed to the Unit
ed States for the sole purpose Of turning
to greater advantage the capitals they
have acquire at home by persevering|
industry and extreme economy. A good
many of them are known to possess from
&c, 900, 10000 even to &c, 900 francs g.
2OOl,) The cash which they have ex-
changed for bills, from merchants enjoy
ing their confidence, prove the truth of
this fact. They travel in wagons, con-
tanning sometimes as many as from 25 toI
80 individuals, from their Cantons to Ha-
vre. On the road they have no other
lodging or shelter but these wagons,
which on their arrival, they sell, together
with their horses and gear.
The Court Journal says that Prince
Leopold left France on account of the
illness of the King; and that he had ex-
pressed regret that it would be necessary
for him to be denaturalized. 1t is to be
remarked that the Duke of Wellington
ncgatived this necessity on the floor the
House Of Lords.
The Russian negotiations at Constan-
tinople, proceeded without interruptions;
those relative to Greece are gradually
drawing to a close.
A sale took place at Liverpool on Goth
April, ofthrce bags of cotton, brought by
the Amethyst, from New South Wales,
the first ever sent from thence to Eng
land. 1t was of good and clean color,
long and strong staple, and silky texture.
1t was sold by public auction in three
lots bringing sevcrally 10 Sid, and lid
| IA, per pound.
The Grcenock Advertiser states that
the ship Robert Stewart was to leave
that port for New York with one hun
drcd and forty-six individuals, besides
Children. Several Of the passengers are
opulcnt. The ship General Pike was
also preparing to leave with emisrants,
chiefly mechanics. Several others were
preparing. The ship Amulet, was 20
leave Port Glasgow for Now York, full
ofpasscngcrs. The ship Brunswick is to
sail from London for New York, with
200 omigrants, chiefly agricuIturists.-
Besides the above, many vessels arc ad-
veriised for America with passengers
Nearly 1000 passengers had sailed from
Waterford. The rage for emigration
was universal in England and Ireland,
