el Cabrera, ancient Political Chief of Soria
and Calatayud. Siucetlieflight of Quito-
ga, the Governor Novello, who Succeeded
him, has sent a flag of truce to Gen. Bourck,
proposing to sign the capitulation which had
been offeretl to him some days previonsly.—-
This proposalhas been rejected, in conse-
quence of the change of circumstances and
the conduct of the besieged, who were base
enough to fire upon the first flag of t_ruce.—-
General Novella, fearful of being taken by as-
sault, was then reduced to the necessity of
soliciting leave to send a Colonel to Gen.l‘v'Io-
rillo to ask his advice.

Jug. l3.——We can learn nothing more of
importance here until after the arrival ofthe
Duke (l’Angouleme before Cadiz, which will
take place on the evening ofthe lGth instant.
VVe must then allow the Prince some days,
either to attack or to consider proposals of
arrangements. -

Blockade of St. Stbagiian, flag. 12.-—On
Sunday we learnt the submission of General
Ballastcros ; -this news did not surprise us, as
we expected it. We, however, view it as an

 

. event towards the pacification of Spain.

BAYONNE, Aug. 13.——'I‘lie summons made
by. Marshaf'Lauriston to Santona, St. Sebas-
tian and Panipeluna,.have availed uothing.—.
It is reported that the Duke d’Anguuleme, re-
ferring to accounts which he had received
from Cadiz, has ‘asked the assistance of the
English Cabinet to save the Royal Family
from the terrible effects of a conspiracy carry-
ing nu there’; and that in consequence of
these urgent representatives, Sir. W. A’Court
was to go to Cadiz. It is calculated that
the sum of 200 millions of reals in Spanish
money, has been sent from France since the
month of January, and that the sum of}00
millions of francs, French money, is actually
in circulation in the Peninsula.

London, ./lug. 2.°3tl.—A correspondent in
Cumberland, writes as follows :—The weatli-

 

-er has becotne alarming; thousands and tens

oftliousands ofacres of hay are down through-
out the country, and the greater part of it
nearly spoiled. - The state ofthe weather has

‘been so remarkablyungenial in the wheat,

-that it is generally thought there will not be
more than two-thirds ofa crop.

Extract ofletter from a respectable gentle-
man dated Havana, Sept. 10th. -‘ The Fama
has just arrived from Cadiz, in 32 days. The
place firm, andvfiring occasionally upon the
French troops, who donot return it. Popu-
lation supposed 30,000 ofwhich 10,000 troops
-but no further sallies. A great confidence in
Pueate and the other Ministers. Riego in at-
tempting to’ goby sea, to join the army, was

t compelled by the blockading squadron tore-

turn to Cadiz. No want ofprovisions. Tltc
king and royal family in honorable confine-
ment to their palace; but._the members of the
Cortes and the liberales walk freely upon the
ramparts.’——-./lferc. .fi;1'v. ‘ -

Very lale from Europe.—Since our last,we
have had several short arrivals from Europe.
The Maria, capt. Fowler, has furnished Lon-
don papers to the 9.7th of August and by the
1\Iarmion,capt. Hawkins, from Havre,we have
Paris papers to the 80th ult. inclusive.

' “ ' The most prominent articles ofintelligence,

are disastrous to the Spanish cause, and give
its fearsthat resistance to the invaders is near-
ly at‘ anend. ‘ I

Corunna, and Algesiras, both capitulated to
the French on the 14th ofAugust. ' _ ‘
‘ The last advices from the Duke of Angou-
Ienie, state that on the 18th ofAugust he was
holding a council of war'undcr the walls of
Cadiz. Previous reports stated that he arri-
ved at St. Marys on the 16th, and iininediateé
Iy sent a flag into‘ Cadiz with propositions for,
a negociation with the Cortes——but the Cor-
tes, it is said declined to receive’ any propo-
sitions expect they came through the British
government. The defection of }t1iuiso,onc
of Mina’s Generals, is confirmed. He had
joined the French with 49. of his troops.
Ballasteros carried with him 4000 troops.

The Regency at Madrid, it is said, endeav-
ored to procure of the Duke of Angoulemc a
modification of his decree against their au3
thority to imprison the Constitutionalists.--
Butit appears the decree was put in execu-
tion, and upwards of 600‘men had been re-
leased from prison at Madrid.

There are reports that the_ Greeks had ob-
tained further great victories on land; that
they had encountered and nearly destroyed
the ‘grand Turkish fleet, only 10 vessels es-
capiug,‘ and that they were about to under-
take an enterprize against Smyrna. '

The Pope, PiusVI[. died at Rome on the
20th of Aug. aged 83 years. His poutificate
was 23 years, one of the longest recorded.

Aletterfrom Bayonne, Aug.‘19th, says a
courier passed througlrtliat place on the 18th,
reported to be the bearer of an order from "the
government at Cadiz to the Constitutional
Generals, for the‘ suspension of hostilities.

’ Madrid, flag. 'E20.—O’Donnel gives an ac-
count from Salatuanca that two sqiradrons of
the regiment of ‘La Reina have united with
his troops, and acknowledged the Regency.

‘ Bayonne, Aug. 23.—Preparations are ac-
tivelygoing on for the siege of Pampeluna.

The Regency is engaged, but "with little
success, in organizing Volunteer Royalists.

A courier ar.’ this morning with news that
M.Ouvrard was on his return to Madrid. He
also asserts that the dukewould soon follow.

Gen.’Q_ueseda has for sotiie days been ma-
king inef’f'ectual'attempts to introduce his lit-
tle army into the capital. He is opposed by
tlre'Duke"de Reggie. The news of'the'capit-
iilatiou of‘Zayas is not confirmed. The troops
of Ballastcros are still quartered in the seve-
ral villages assigned them. Madrid is in a
state’ of uncertainty which cannot last long.
The constitutional royalists manifest great
hopes ; the absolutists appear uneasy.

Paris, Aug. Q6.-—We learn that his R. H.
the Duke of Angoulenie ‘arrived on the 16th
at Port St. Mary, opposite Cadiz, and that
the next day he reviewed the troops. Every
teing was in readiness to begin the bombard-
ment, if no arrangement could be effected.

' Paris, Aug. 27.—-It is reported that his R.
H. as soon‘ as heiarrived before Cadiz, sent a
flag oftruce to King Ferdinand, bearer ofthe
conditions that may bring forth an arrange-
ment between the belligerent parties. His
R.H. they say,required an answer in 24 hours.
It seems that a reply was immediately return-
ed to the Prince that his term was too limited,
and that his R.H.granted them 5 days. Three
days having elapsed since the departure ofthe
flag of truce without his returning,‘ a favora-
ble result was anticipated from tltisdclay.

‘Breach of Promzse.—At the present term
ofthe Superior Court now in session at Dan-
bury, Miss Harriet Sears of Southeast has ob-
tain".-ti a verdict of $1,000 against Mr.Gamal-
iel N. Benedict of Ridgbury, for abreach of
promise ofmarriage.

A noble e.tfamplc.—At the late Commence-
ment of Yale College, eight members ofthe
Class of 1813 pledged themselves to raise
$1300 for the benefit of the Institution, and
to invite the co-operation oftheir Class-mates
throughout the Union to aid in the erection of
a Collegiate Building, at the sole expense of
the Class. This buildingis to be called Fisher’s
Hall, in memory ofthe late Professor Fisher,
who was a metnbcr ofthe above-namedClass.

‘Yale finds her best friends and her richest
funds in her Alumni. And surely it is tnost
fit that they who owe her their science, and
virtue, and hopes, should make this small re-.
turnof pecuniary aid. ' ~

Key Wes£.—Upon the late disastrous intel-
ligeuce froiu Com. Porter’s squadron, the ed-
itors of the N. Y. American thus remark :--
‘ This sumnier’s experience confirms most
strongly the impressions we have long enter-
tained, that the sort of force now employed in
the W. I. seas is not that which is best adapt-
ed either to the suppressioti of.pit'acy, or to
the preservation ofthe valuable lives ofthose
devoted to this inglorious, but perilous and
necessary warfare. We are persuaded that a
few frigates, large, roomy, with ample accom-
modations under decks, and well provided
with boats, would render more effectual ser-
vice, at less hazard of life and expense, than
all the sclirs. now in commission. For such
vessels there would beno necessity of having
a station in those latitttdes of pestilence ; and
consequently the risk (and next to sleeping on
clock, as in the schooners at present in service
both officers and men are obliged to do, that
risk is the greatest) of landing and living on
shore, at such places as Key West, would be
done away.’

Professor STUART, ofAudover Theological
Institution, has declined accepting the Degree
ofDoctorofDivinity,recently conferred on him
by Harvard University. The Salem Gazette
says, he also declined accepting a similar De-
gree conferred on him a year or two since by
Brown University. It is said that the rever-
end Professor refuses to accept these honors
from conscientious scruples—-‘ Be ye not call-
ed RABBI,’ &c.

Bishop Hobart has embarked on board ship
Meteor,.at New-York, and proceeds to Liver-
pool for the benefit of his health. All the E-
piscopal Clergy ofthe city and many from the
neighboring counties, with a great number of
-friends, acconipauied him to the Q_uarantine
ground. On leaving the ship, the Rev. Dr.
Harris, in the name of his clergy, presented
him with a farewell address signed by all the
clergy present. The partitig scene was af-
fecting bcyond description. A ' -

The people of Indiana have decided, by an
overivltelitiingvote‘, against the call of _a_ con-
vention, the ohject of which was to alter the
constitutiou so as to introduce slavery into the
state. ~ A similar question is about to be deci-
dcd in Illinois. ,

Col. Aaron Ogden has recovered S-1500 of
Thomas Gibbons,for sending him a challenge.
On-a former occasion this cause had been tri-
ed, and a verdict ofS:'>00O obtained in favor
ofthe plaintiff. The defendant, however, be-
ing dissatisfied with the verdict, appealed to
the higher courts, and eventually the judg-
ment was reversed by the Court of Errors,
chic-fly on the score of excessive damages.
Some misunderstanding is said to exist be-
tween the chiefs ofthe Creek nation and the
U. S. Agent residing in the nation, which was
occasioucd by the Agent’staking possession of
the goods ofa ‘trader who had been selling
without a license. It seems a connexion of
the agent also kept a store-in the nation, and
the chiefs,uot liking the Agent’s proceedings,
have directed their warriors toscize his goods,
‘by way ‘of retaliation.

' The Richmond Cotnpiler ofthe 17th inst.
announces the death of John. W. Eppcs, Esq.
late a‘ distinguished ' member of Congress,
from thestate of Virginia,after a long illness.
Fo_r solid worth, he has not perhaps left his six-
perior behind him.

Robber_1/.—An. extensive robbery was coin-
mitted a few weeks since on the property of
the boarders,-at Bunker’s Mansion House in
Broadway, N. Y. and on the 22d inst. a black
fellow, who had been a waiter at the house,
was arrested on suspicion. He had left his
place, married, and gone to house-keeping in
style, having furnislied_ his house with beds,
bedsteads, curtains, bureaus, pictures, pokers,
looking-glasses, curling-irons, Cologne wa-
ter, and other indispensables !

Bank arrangcmenls.—-The. N. Y. Banks
have recently adopted measures preparatory"
to the receipt, at their counters, ofnotes ofall
the solvent banks ofthat state, and alsoof the
principal banks of Connecticut and N.Jersey.

‘Sic/rn’ess in Oliio.—A letter from Marietta,
dated the 7th inst. says—"Sickncss prevails in
this place "dreadfully. There are scarcely e-
nough well to attend on the, sick. Not far
from this place, on the Muskingtun river,
within the cotnpass of 0. iniles,- 29‘ persons
have died ofthe fever. In one house at which
I put up, I had mncli difficulty in procuring
lodgings-—there were ten sick in the family,
and four dc-ad. lVIa‘rietta lies on the Ohio,
opposite to ‘Virginia. his a beatiful little

that the sickness wouldth us prevail in such a

The disease that at present ravages Natch-
-ez is said to be yellow fever: as the victims
die with yellow skin andblack vomit, no doubt
of the fact can exist. Wrscuce has the cause
originated? It certainly has not been impor-
ted from New'Oi-leans. The parish of Con-'
cordia, comprising tnanyliundrcd square miles
in extent has been iuuudated_—-the" water sub-
sided about the first of August, light westerly

Belfast, Jllc. Sept. 17.-'---While accounts
from all other Atlantic'States speak of rain
in fertile abundance, and from the VVes'tern
States of destructive floods,» the drought in
this part has become melancholy and distress-
ing. Nothing cqual to it has occurred since
the first settlement of Penobsclot. Vegeta-
tion is ‘ seared as with a hotiron ;’ rivers have
become rivulets, and the small streams have
vanished. It_is difficult in many places to
procure asufficicut supply of water fbr do-
tnestic purposes. - Cattle, are driven two miles
to water,and many families send one or more
miles for water for tlieinselves. The atmos-
phere is surchariged with dense smoke, and
what is more alarming, fires are raging at
large through the extensive forests and culti-
vated grounds. Unless wehave rains soon,
the utmost distress will be experienced.

At last spring Court he was drawn on the

' The negro fellow Joe who more than two

to take him. He has selected the most dense
and impervious swamps in the region of the
Wateree and Congaree rivers, where he has
organized a band of runaway desparadoes
who subsist on the-adjacent districts. At the
head ofifour ofhis armed followers, he boldly

The Sangerfield Intelligeticer states, that
Abraham Antone, the Indian who was execu-
tedin Madisiou county, on the 192th inst. had
committed three murders previous to the one
for which he suffered. The first was a child
of his own, which he burned in the embers on
the hearth, because he was ‘disturbed by its
cryino‘. The second was on a man in Cana-
da,‘ who he said insulted him by calling him
Indian Dog. He followed him several days,
when finding him at an inn, he obtained priv-
ilege to sleep by the f_ire, and going to his bed
in the night, gave him his death wound with
a knife, and givingjan Indian whoop of victo-
ry, escaped. The third was of an Indian
whom he shot ata raising on the Susquehan-
nah, on pretence that he had wronged him of

to get him within his reach, for coming up to
Jacobs, he took him by the hand in a friendly
manner, and slipped a long knife frotn his
sleeve,witlt which he gave him several wounds
which proved mortal, and again escaped. He

.Kr.‘_tes"roN, Jam. Aug. §2Q.—His Majesty’s
ship Tyne, Captain Roberts,‘ from acruise,
anchored at Port Royal on Tuesday evening.
The ‘Tyne destroyed a piratical schooner and
several boats during her cruise off the ‘coast
of Cuba. She also recaptured two feluccas,
and gave them over to their proper owners.
By the Tyne we learn that his Majesty’s schoo-
ners Union and Lion had taken a piratical
schooner, fnlbof men, after a most desperate
engagement in which we are sorry to say, a
British oflicer was wounded. His‘ Majesty’s
cutter Grecian. Licut. Cawlcy, arrived at
Port Royal yesterday, with ac privateer schr.
taken by his Majesty’s ship Icarus. The pri-
vateer is reported to have? prisoners on board.

[One oftheKingstou papersstatesthat ‘the
American steam-boat Sea_-Gull had recently
been taken by 3 piratical boats full of_meu,by
surprize in the night,'when horrible to relate,
they put the whole of the officers and crew.
into boilers, and in this manner most cruelly
put thctn to death ; and the pirates had sworn
vengeance against all Americans.’ We need
not add that our last accounts from Thomp-
son’s Island are to the 8th inst.nearly a month
after the reported capture, and the Sea Gull
was then in port with the Com. on board]

Our Spanish 4Ilinislcr.——r\ Cadiz date of
‘the 30th July states, that the Minister of the
U. States who had arrived in the frigate Con-
gress, (whose entrance the French .admiral
Hamelin had opposed) had sent. from Gibral-
tar a proper complaint to the Duke d’Augou-
letue,a_ud one to the Amer. legation at Paris.

CAmz,.Tuly 224.-This morning a~r.at the en-
trance ofonr port, the American frigate (Con-
gress,) which brings out the new Minister (Mr.
Nelson,) of that nation, to our government;
but being .deiiied an entrance by the French
blockading squadron, they were obliged to al-
tcr their course towards the Straits, (el Es-
trccho.) A short time after, a vessel sailed
from this bay, under the American Flag, in
which went. the Charge d’A ffaires, (Mr. Ap-
pleton,) of that Nation, who resides in ‘this
place, and having reached the Admira'l’s ship
for the purpose of being informed what mo-
tives led him not topcrmit the entrance ofthe
frigate, was simply answered that the frigate
had gone to Gibraltar. This conduct of the
French Admiral appears to us so much the
more strange, as only a few days ago he per-
mitted a Portuguese vessel of war to enter
the, port which brought on board the Misister
Plenipotentiary ofthat nation. ' Posterior to
this, we have also seen an English frigate ar-
rive iu our port. What then could have been
the cause of this odious exception towards the
American Frigate ? It can be doubtless noth-
ing else but that the American government is
not a monarchy. -

The Spanish -Cortes adjourned on the 5th
Aug. in the utmost harmony.
