ses. Like scenes took place at Cuenca and
Salamanca ; in this latter city, the agents of
the police were either obliged to fly, or con-
ceal themselves. The Madrid police com-
‘polled more than 900 of those who had fol-‘
lowed the Cortes to Cadiz, to leave the ‘for-

the government most dread,‘ and it is against

at Corfu on the lst. confirtned the reports‘of..
th'e defeat ofthe Turks at Santos. One fri-1
gate, three brigs, and twenty transports fell.
into thehantls ofthe Greeks, who also blew‘
up the Atlmiral’s vessel. All the Turks who
landed, were killed or taken prisoners. A
letter from Navuriee, in the Morea, of Aug.
Ell, says,‘ the Turks lost a ship, three frigates,
and thirty gun boats. ,
A similar account from Corfu, of Sept. Qd.
said to have been brought up by an English
traveller from tllissolonglii, was received at
Trieste. This account adds that the Captain
Ptzcha was blownup in the Adiniral’s ship——
and that an heroic Greek, named Canaris,
succeeded in destroying the vessel, at the
sacrifice ofliis own life. ‘

that the Hospodars preserve, for the purposes
of safety and good order, a part of the Otto.

the same declaration—-to Holland, unless that
countryseparate herselffroin an alliance with
Spain, within three months. He has declar-

The Dutch Admiral has notified the Spanish

Extract of a'L-cttcr from SMIBNA, dated flu-
‘ gust -19. ,_ _
“ Santos has not been attacked. The Greek
Fleet, consisting of80 sail, have had an action
with the Turks, and destroyed most of their
transports ; and we learn that this little
squadron is now Blockading the Ottoman
fleet at Budrum, and the overwhelming force
of the Captaie Pacha is thus kept in awe by
the‘Greeks. The Camp befdre Santos is in
a great deal ofdisorder, and the loss of the
transports may prevent an immediate attack ;
ifso, it will be impossible to keep the army
together, as they are without money and pro-
visions, and Santos may yet be saved. The
islanders aregresolute, and refuse to leave the
Island, although requested by the Greek Sen-
ate. The loss of Ipsara has had a ' contrary
-effect to what was expected. Ithas, like the
loss oftheir Patriarch, roused their spirits,
and driven them almost to madness, arid the
brave Greeks are more than ever determined
to die or to be }<‘ree’men. Their cause never
worcabctter aspcct.—Tliree different divis-
ions ofthe Ottoman Army have been destroy-
ed. Athens, M.irutlion,- &z.c. have been the
fields of victory. Our accounts are of forty-
five thousand Turks liavingbeen destroyed.
The funds received from England and Anter-
ica, have given a new energy to the Greek
Senate. Troops are organizing in all parts,
all party differences appear hushed," and an
universal feeling of courage and patriotism is
shewing itself—sucli as we expect to find on-
ly in Greeks. The critical moment for them
is now approaching, I almost say is passing.
The whole force ofthe Ottoman Empire has
burst upon devoted Greece, but though, like
the Simon, from the Soutli, bloody and
fgiglitful in its appearatices, I trust it will dis-
appear without effecting the destruction it
now threatens.”
LA'I-‘ER:—Byv arrivals -at New-York on
the llth,London papers to Oct. 8 are’rec’d.
' It was reported that France and Spain
were_prepariiig_. an expedition to reduce St:
Doiningo—Spain acting under the claim for
‘ I - . ‘
the Spanish part. Plie Morning Chromcle
asserts that a great quantity ofrnilitary stores
was actually shipping from Havre, for this
object. The Courier has the following article
on the subject.
r. We gave on Tuesday, the particulars of
an expedition which was said to have sailed
t'ro_tii Brest, four or five weeks ago,‘ for the
,,;;£.[)ttt'pose of recovering possession of St. Do-
‘lrhllllgo. We did not then believe a word of it.
A ‘Vs have since received, from various quar-
ters, iuforiiiatton connected with this intelli-
gence, wliicli leaves no doubt upon our minds
as to the fact of troops having been dispatched
about that time. ~ ‘ , ~ _. , g ' _ _
V A portion ofthis information we suhjoin-__as
contained in the following private letter,writ-
ten we are assu_red,by a member oftlreCharn-
tier of Dep‘uties,'wlio has access to Ministeri-
alcotnrnunications. _ . ‘ '
« Thefollowing is theletter :_— _. _
“Soon after the disinissal of the Haytien
Comtnissioners, orders were given by the Ft.
Government to prepare an expedition against
theisland. Fotir thousand nien,forming part
ofit, were ordered to Brest, and there em_b_ar-
ked on the 28th of August. The expedition
then set sail tojoin Adtn. Duperre, off .Vlar-
tinique-, where an additional number of troops
collected for several months past, were to be
taken on board, and thewhole to proceed to
St. Domingo.‘ On arriving oil the island,-_ It
was not intended to do any thing decisive
in the first instance, which the smallness of
the forces would not admit of, butto get pog-
session of some strong places on the healthi-
est patt ofthe coast, throw up additional ‘for-
tifications, and then enter into iiegottahons
with sotne of the Chiefs,- many ofwhorn are
still attached to Francef. Should these fail
then strong reinforcemen '3 would be sent fr.
France and hostilities commence whilst the
fleet would establish. the strictest blockade‘
before the principal ports of the island.”
A letter from Paris of the 4th inst. says—,—
“ On Saturday, after the appearance of M.de
Chateaubriand’s pamphlet, he had an audi-
ence ofthe King, wliich,lasted_above an hour._
A, greatinauy of the opposition members of
the Clianibers were presentat the Levee on
Sunday, among others M. Royer Collard, all
of whom the King addressed with great alfa-
bility. M. De Caze met with a liked receip-
tion. To General Excelman’s he sai —-‘t e
only thing that remember is, that when you
received from_Buonapar_te an order to pursue
ine,you fixed on a different road to that which
I pursu_ed.’_’-—In short nothing can exceed the
popularity ofthe King and the Dauphin. The
removal of M. de Villele is confidently ex-
pected.’ . .-
Anotlier action was fought at Cape Coast
on the lltlrof.Iulv, between" the Ashaiitces
cotnmantled by the King in person, and the
British forces, in which the latter lost about
500.men,'priucipally Africans. The Ashan-
tecscame down totlienuinber of 15.000 with
a (,ll?t8|'l'Dll'lBll-Illlellllflll to take the Castlc.——-
'I‘he battle was fought about three quarters tgzf
a mile from the shore. Parties of marines
seamen were landed from the Tlietis, to aid
in the contest. The loss ofthe British amoun-
ted to 105 killed and 400 wounded. Up to
July 252d’, nothing had been heard or seen of
the enemy since the battle,. although parties
had been sent out in search ofthein.
The last Paris papers contain a new ver-
sion' of the reports from Corfu respecting a‘
supposed defeat ofthe Turks by sea and land
at Santos on the 18th and 20th ofAugust’. It
is said theylanded ten thousand men, who
were all cut off by the Sainiots, and that 94
Turkish l'rigates,corvettes, and other vessels,
were burnt, sunk, stranded, or taken -by the
Greek squadron. This intelligence is now
said to have been brought to Corfu by a Brit-
ish vessel ofwar, and to have been communi-
cated to‘ the British ‘Minister at Florence by
the Ionian Government. It appears, howev-
er, like former accounts, to have had no other
-.l'oundation than the action which took place
about the period alluded to, with a small di-
vision of the Turkish fleet which they succee-
tied in taking or destroyiiirr. According to
the advices from Smyrna it seems certain
that tip to the 26th or £7th of Aug. no attack
had been made on Samos,nor had there been
any general engagement between the Greek
and Turkish fleets.
We understand that the authenticity of the
instructionsfrom the Superintendent General
of the Policeof Spain to the officers of that

all the Constitutionalists has _been questioned

sure our readers that it is perfectly genuine,
and that we have the printed original in our

ister here dernanded, that the misguided man

gainst justice being executed on him. The
answer was iinmetliate——a free pardon from

FREE Town (.S'ici‘ra Leone) June 18.
Slave Trade.—The brig El Vincedor, ar-
rived in this harbor. on Monday the 81st tilt.
and by her we have the following particulars:
The brig El Romano, commanded by Jose
del Catairo, armed with sixteen 18 pounders,
and manned with 20 officers aml 130 men,
was fitted ou't by,a company ofinercbants at
the Havana and sent to tliis__coast. On the
9th ofMarch last she made Trade Town and
there fell in with the French lugger l’Henri-
etta Anne: which ‘vessel Harry Karsdorp, a
native of Holland, the second mate, declares
to have belonged to Martitiique, and to have
been lying _at Trade Town for slaves.
This’ vessel the El Romano seized: she
sent the crew on shoie except two, and after
sortie delay, proceeded down the coast with
her seizure. About the 9th of April she fell
in, near the river St. Andrews, with the El
Vincedor, under the Brazilian flag, fitted out
for the slave trade, and seized her also, send-
ing her crew afterwards on board a Dutch
vessel botind to Elmina.
The El Romano with her two seizures,tlien
proceeded to Lugos, where the cargo of the
ElVincedor was landed and battered for a
cargo of,slaves to be shipped on board l’I-Ien-
rietta Anne, lugger, and the ElVincedor was
manned and armed from the El Romano.-
The command was given to Don Jose Bag.
ofpowder, and manned with live oflicer-.
16 men. - -
The El Romano here pretended to be
slaver armed for the protection ofthe brig $1.
lugger, her consorts; and was anxiously wait
ing till a Brazilian brig and schr. lying at La-
gos, had received their slaves (about 300,)with
an intention of llien seizing them, when his
Majesty’s ship Victor, capt. Scott, hove in
sight. Tltetwo brigs immediately cut their
jcables and put to sea; after a long chase the
-El Vincedor was re-captured, but the El Ro-
mano escaped. Capt. Scott rcturnetl to La-
gos as soon as possible, which place he could
not however, regain in less than two days,
when he found the lugger still at anchor. On
the appearance ofthe'Victor, a boat, full of
men, was seen to leave the lugger; after which
she got under way, but instead ofatteinpting
to escape, ration shore in a heavysurfwhere
she imnietliately went to pieces. And we re-
grotto add, that from the number of blacks
observed on her decks there can beno doubt
she had her cargo of-slaves on board, all of
whom perished. A
.The Brazilian schr. was still there‘ waiting
for her cargo; the brig hatl sailed the night
before with jive hundred human bangs on
board. Capt. Scott iinmetlizttely sailed in
hopes ofovertakiug her, and saw the El Ro-
mano again that day, but was unable to reach
her, and was not fortunate enough to overtake
the brig. ' The Victor then proceeded to Prin-
ces, and a few leagues from that island fell in
with the schooner boat Piccauinny Maria, of
4 tons burthen, having on board 17 slaves-
six ofthe Q3 slaves she took on board in the
_G.iboon having died previously. Twenty-
three slaves, besides her crew, water, provis-
ions, and sotne cargo in (I boat of five tons I
The space allowed for the slaves was eight-
een inclies between the water casks antl the
deck. This boat is said to have belonged to
His Excellency the Governor of Princes.
The slaves came up iii the El Vincedor,
and are under adjudication in the Court of
British and Portuguese Mzxed _Cominission.
The War in Indt'a.——By the Factor,arrived
at Philadelphia from Calcutta, intelligence
has been received that the Birmesc War con-
tinued to rage, and that the British after sus-
taining several defeats, had. withdrawn their
forces from Cliittigony for the purpose of u-
uiting in the Rangoon, which they finally
succeeded in capturing. Rangoon is the
principal port in the Birinan Empire, has fr.
30 to 40,000 inhabitants, and contains sortie
Christian missions ; among tltcm, one "ofthe
American Baptist Society. The Birmesc,
taking advantage of the withdrawal of the
British force, had approached Chittigony,
with an army of upwards of 15,000 tnen, but
-hearing of the fall of Rangoon, retired to-
wards Ava. The British army rescued many
ofthe missionaries, who had been ordered to
execution by the Birmesc commanders. The
publication ofthe official accounts ofthe war
had been suspended at Calcutta.
Rangoon was taken on thglst May. The
British commander says in h's despatch,
“ I had the satisfaction 0 seeing the Brit-
ish flag flying in the town, without the troops
having had occasion to discharge a single
musket and without my having occasion to
regret the loss ofa single individual, killed or
wounded, on our side. The news of our arri-
val in the river having reached Rangoon the
preceding night, and our rapid progress tip in
the morning being marked by an occasional
shot in answer to the fire frotn the Chokies,to-
getlier with the preparation of the Burmese
authorities for defence, threw the inhabitants
into such a state of consternation as to cause
a general flight in every direction" towards
tbejungles, so imich so that out of a large "po-
pulation, I do not think one hundred men
were found inthe town on our taking posses-
sion of it.
“The members ofthe government tied at the
firstshot, carrying with them seven out ofll
Europeans, whom they liatl ordered to be im-
prisoned and put in irons. The next day the
whole seven were found safeiii different pla-
ces of confinement, their guards-having fled
at otir approach. The captured ordnance far
-exceeds in number anything we supposed the
cotiritry to possess, although, generally speak-
ing, it IS ofa bad description.”

HAVANA.—-By the brig Eliza, in 16 days
from Havana, we have received papers to the
23d ultimo.
A letter from Puerto Principe, dated the
4th of October, from Pedro Pilon, gives an
account of an expedition undertaken by him,
against the pirates on the neighboring coast.
He collected twenty three volunteers and sent
them to Guarraja, the port of'wh_ich was clos-
ed, until three boats were procure_d for the
service, and a quantitypfprovisions and mu-
nititions obtained from the inhabitants. Soon
after sailing, they fell in with a launch and 3
boats, filled with pirates, and immediately
commenced a fire ofmusquetry. The boats
were speedily forsaken, and the pirates hav-
ing gained the land,saved themselves by flight,
all except three notorious fellows, who were
captured, together with their arms and an A-
merican flag ! The others; still live to renew
their inhuman practices.——Daily fldv.

War at Guatiinala.-33‘-‘We have conversed
with a gentleman who left Truxillo Sept. 7,
who corroborates the intelligence received at

and the province of Guatiinala. He states
place at Leon, amounting'to H0 meii,women
and children—and that the communication
with the interior, and Truxillo, was cut off.—

DETROIT, Oct. 22.
Last Tuesday, an elderly tiiati named Lau-
rent, who lives in the vicinity of the River
Rogue, about six uiiles from this place, per-
ceived two Indians in his field digging pota-
toes. He immediately went tip to them and
requested them to leave the field-—tliey refus-
ed; on which he took one by the shoulder
and endeavored to push him out ofthe field-—-
the Indian resisted, and in the scuflle threw
Laurent down. Ason of Mr. L. a youili of
about 16 years ofage, at this time saw the
situation ofliis father, and catching a club
ran to his assistance. On coming up, be
perceived the Indian that was engaged, with
a knife in his hand, in the act of striking his
father, and struck him so severe a blow upon
the head as to cause his immediate death, antl
other. A number of Indians a few hours af-
terwards assembled near the sport, which
caused some alarm in the neighborhood, and
in the evening a party oftroops, under Capt.,
Webb and Lieut. Walker, marched to the_
place; but it was ascertained the Indians as-
sembled only for the purpose of burying their
comrade——they have shewn no intention to“
revenge his death.
Indian Dispu’tes.—Not long since it was-
reported that a war party, composed of Otta-
was and Pottawatamies, were assembling in
selves on the Mi_amies for some murders com-
mitted by them, but we howlearn that the dis-
pute is settled—the Miatnies having paid the
injured parties five thousand dollars. .
We also learn from Mr. B. that a quantity
of goods belonging to the American Fur com-
pany, valued at about 6,000 dollars, has been
recently seized by an agent ofthe Indian De-
partment, for an alledged infringement on the
‘aw regulating trade with the Indians, on_tlie
‘rt of those who had the goods in possession.
