" to the surrender or that place to the Neapolitans
on the 6th Oct. Duringthe engagements on the
26th, 27th, and 28th Nov. ‘ the scene was most
dreadful. The number of killed on both sides
was very considerable. On the morning of the
27th, 30 carts filled with dead bodies, (says the
letter) passed close by the street where I‘llV€..—-
-The palaces of Prince Cato and ‘Prince Latolica,

ii-ooips have pluiidered great many houses; in
fact, the scene of devastation over about three
‘square miles of the adjoining country and my
part of the city, is deplorable in the extreme ; one
street ofnew houses is entirely destroyed. The
people fought with the greatest desperation. Had
they unfortunately got the better_ol the troops,
which they had every chance of doing on the 27th,
the consequence to Palermo would have been
dreadful, as the populace were much exasperated
against the nobility and all the respectable people:
for being favorable to the Neapolitan troops en-
firing the city as friends. Nearly the whole of
the merchants have been either afloat or in the
country.’ .
The treaty concluded by Gen. Pepe with the
citizens of Palermo was submitted to the parlia-
ment at Naples on the 14th ult. and rejected unan-
imously by that body The rejection is believed
to accord with the popular feeling on that subject.
A proclamation was in consequence issued on the
following day by the Vicar General, declaring it
void. Geri. Pepe was immediately recalled from
Palermo, and Colletto, with a force of 6000 men,
appointed to succed him, and to reduce the Pa-
lermitans to an unqualified submission.
S/:az'zz.——'l‘lie sanction of the King to the law
pronouncing the abolition of monastic orders, was
r,egistered in an extraordinary sitting of the Cor-
tes on the 23:] ult. and orders were sent to the
magistrates in all the provinces to take possession
of all the suppressed convents. The delay of the
King's assent to this measure is ascribed to re-
monstrances from the court of Rome. A com-
mittee had reported in favor of conferring estates
yielding a rental of 80,000 reals, on Generals
Riego and Quiroga ; and estates of 40,000 reals
a year on several other officers, who had been in-
strumental in liberating the country from the
yokeof despotism. VVith regard to Riego and
Quiroga, it is further proposed that the King he
requested to honor them with Castilian titles of
Nobility. A bill has been introduced for punish-
ing with death, all persons conspiring to subvert
the existing constitution.

Public Land I)ebl.-—'l’lre subject of some pro-
\'i.=ir-it for the relief of the ptirchasers of Public
Lantls, who are heavily indebted to the United
States, and whose case invites the interposition of
Congress, has been before the committees of
Public Lands, in both Houses of Congress. A
majority of the committee in each House, we un-
derstand, are disposed to report favorably on the
pi‘oposiliuii. It is said that the committee in the
House of Representatives have agreed on a re-
port, recommending the adoption ofthc following
propositions :
1. To permit the surrender, by the purchasers,
ofa part of their purchases, and the money paid
on the part surrendered to be applied to the pay-
ment for that part which they rctaiii.
2. To give to the purchasers a certain term of
time for the payment of the balance oftlre money
due on that part which they retain, without inter-
est. , V
3. To direct the registers of the Lanil Oflices
to give final certificates to all those purchasers of
public lands. now indebted therefor, who pay
down five-eightlisi of the original purchase mon-
ey, without interest.
It is believed that some provision, for the re-
lief of this class of public debtors, is likely to be
agreed to by Congress. .

VVe learn from Capt. Whitter from Cadiz, that
the news of the ratification ofthc FLORIDA TREA-
TY reached Cadiz about the 1st of Nov. The

to Havana with a copy of the ratified treaty, and
with instructions for the formal cession of the

VVc understand that the largest ship owner in

produced in the U. States—and a foreign publica-
tion, speaking of commerce, alluded to the above
gentleman, and stated him to be the grestest mer-
chant in the world. Independent of his own, a
great part of his time is devoted to public affairs;
and yet such an immense property is kept in con-
tin tral circulation, thereby employing a great ma-
ny individuals, who might otherwisc suffer, ifper-
mitted to lie dormant.—-Boston Gaz.

Infzmau.9.—-A most infamous piece of qrrizzing
has been played off upon three of our citizens
within a fewilays. L. Law, Esq. received a let-
ter from New-Haven, last week, stating that his
son, a member of Yale College, had fallen down a
pair of stairs in college, and fra'ctu_red his skull
and that his life was despaired of. L. and his
lady, immediately proceeded to N. Havemwhere
the whole was ascertained to be a hoax. We
earnestly hope that the wretch who could thus
waiitonly torture the feelings of this worthy fami-
y, will not long remain" in concealment. Dr. L"
also received a letter by the same mail from New-
Piaven, orderin"g several grace ‘of pills to Phila-
delphia. The pills, it is said, were put up and
were ready to be forwarded, before the letter was
discovered to be a forge'r"y., And even a clergy-
rnan, a profession which. above all others, ought
not to have been subjected to similar treatment,
has also come in for a share ofthis kind of impo-
siti0n.—./Jalvocate.

The treasures of this Scheme are not absorbed,
by one or two overgrown Prizes, as is common-

therefore more usefully distributed.
The punctuality of the managers in drawing
the first Class of this Lottery, and their prompt
payment of the Prizes, gives them confidence in
issuing this, the second and last Class, together
with the laudable purpose for which the grant
was made, they confidently hope will induce the
public to patronize this.
All Prizes subject to the usual deduction of
fifteen per cent ; and l’r'i'zesle.ss than 100 dollars
