brave centre, she has beaten of both abo-

dred slaves.

Capt. Kennard, Of ship Goodwin, from
Calcutta, last from St. Helena, October -.
reports that brig with upward Of 400
slaves, arrived at St. Helena in October,
having been captured by II. b. Nj. ship
Britomart, on the West Coast Of Africa,
without colors Or papers. She had been
intentionally. heA-IaI -s~vrui times oy II. D..
NJ. ship Dart, when she was always repre-
scented as the American brig Frederica, with
American colors and papers. She was Ia
ken at Congo river, at which placeit appears
she had been delivered to Brazilian purcha-
sers. The cook, who was on board at the
time Of her capture, was on board previous
to her being delivered to the Brazilians.-
She was sent to ST. Helena for adjudication
in the Admiralty Court. About forty Of the
negroes died on the passage. The other:
were put in the depot, and when in proper
condition, if they are willing. will be sem
to one Of the West India Islands.
The vessel captured, if we co not mis-
take, was British bottom, condemned al
Key West as unseaworthy, purchased by
Americans, and sent to Rio Janeiro, under q
sea letter, and thence proceeded to Africa

Asa-e,.ka dsr ana his Fam,I,.

The following is extracted from the
Tribune Of the Gironde: 1--WE found the
Emir seated on his bed. On our entrance
he Immediately rose and squeezed our hand
with warmth and dignity. His stature is
above the average; his white woollen clothes
exhibit in fine relief his superb face, which
is adorned with long black beard; his
white hands are perfectly shaped, and his
feet seem surprised TO feel the soflness Of
carpets, after having been 50 long accustom.

The women forming the family Of the
Emir, are lodged in suite Of three rooms
joining his own apartment. His mother in
habits the most distant. She is a woman Of
seventy years Of age, with sad and defect
ed mien, but her eyes sparkle occasionally
like those Of her son. She was indisposed
when we visited her, and was reclining on
a mattress, before an immense brazier, sur
rounded by young black and white female
attendants, who appeared TO serve her with
great zeal and attachment In the second
room We're the three colOred wives Of Add
el-hader on their mattresses, with their chill
dren in their arms. The faces Of the latter
are very pretty. Their heads are entirely
shaved. They say BON Jour and shake
hands very willingly. The women are all
habited in white stuffs. sort Of long gown,
and double TUNES of muslin or cloth, fas-
tened at the breast by chsins Of silver. On
their naked feet they wear rings Of the same
metal. Their headdress conceals Stheir
hair entirely. Their ears are pierced for
immense earrings, which reach as low as
their shoulders. Some OF the women in
this room were tslooed on the face and arms,
in the most curious manner. They appear

wife Of the EmiT, on a sofa, watching oveI
her children at play. She is about forty
years old, and her face is handsome, and
though the expression be somewhat severe
it is by no means bad. Her white garments
are finer and neater than those Of the black
