'FROM ALGIERS- *
j>y Hie arrival at this port yestcr
. -of the brig Aurelia, capt. Leach,
.‘ j 56 days from Algiers, we learo,
Ih»t a frigate arrived at that place on
the 9th of May from Constantinople,
lpresr.it from the grand seignior to
(he (ley of Algiers. A few days pre
vious, a large polacre of about 400
tons burthen, arrived from the same
place, laden with implements of war
of every description. The grand ,
siegnior had highly complimented,
pr,d conferred many honours on the
,lcy for his firmness and intrepidity
S in the defcuceofthceity against the late (
'attack of (he British fleet under com- i
piand Os lord Exmouth, and the whole j
tenor of bis eonduet during the late
unhappy state of affairs; he has pre
sented him with captain’s dress on
the occasion, which is considered the
highest-reward of valour. On the
11 th, 13th awl 14th of May, great
public rejoicings were manifested in
lonsequencc of the honour his highness
foe dey had received from the grand
(ignior.—Salutes of cannon were
(red on those days three Times a day
jrdm more than 600 pieces of cannon.
On th©“2B(h of May. an Algerine
brig and schooner sailed on a cruize,
asrainst what power was not known.
’J'hejr navy may now consist of one
frigate, two sloops of war, lately ar
rived from Constantinople; repairing;
one sloop of war on the stocks; build
ing; three 18 gun brigs, and one IS
gun sehr. at sea. ;
On the 29(h »»rM ay, a Tuscan am*
bassador arrived at Algiers, for the
purpose of negotiatinga treaty between
that dukedom and the regency of Ah
giers.
The American consul left Algiers
on the 10th of May in the frigate IJ.

nis.— Boston paper July 28.' -
The report relative to our Consul i
having left Algiers suddenly, turns
out to be merely bis departure from

Slave-trade Reviving.
Therevenuc cutler Dallas, captain
Smith, at Savannah from St; Marys,
(mile in that river seized eleven
slaves, which the owners were in the
Act of smuggling into the U. Slates
from Amelia Island.—A vesseUfrom
St. Barts, was lately scizcdrat Nor
folk, fora violation of the law pro
hibiting, the introduction of slaves in
to ; ihe United States, having on board
four blacks, whom they had actually
sold to some slave-dealers. The ne
groes declared they were free, and
that hemsen, the captain, took (heir
papers from them—A letter from
Havana, states (hat (he vessels which
trade to the African coast increase
fast io number; a fleet was to have
tailed on (he 2d ult.— Telescope.
It is said that Mr. Gallatin is desi
rous of returning to the Un'ned States;
and the probability is suggested of
Mr. Pit.kney’s being transferred to

of St. James— Ih.

Potsdam, n. y July IS.— lt is bri
de-stood that Mr. EJlicot. after a
course of observance, rendered un
commonly laborious from the unfa
vorable state of the weather, has es
tablished the latitude of 46" and
marked the same, from (he St Law
fen- eto St Regis river. No perma
nent monuments having been made
when ibis -boundary was- first esta
blished, the difference is no« exactly
known, but it is bflieved it does not
yary 50 fe t from the calculation of
IWr. Holland, the engineer employed
on that occasion. It is hoped that
those points, as well as the line gene
rally, will be better designated than
heretofore; at least that the oftsets of
from io to 20 chains existing in the
\ former line, will be so la» connected
that it may he known which is the
true boundary. The commissioners
«Mhe part of the British government
appearing not fully prepared to en
tw upon the negotiation, oursi in the
mean time, is industriously engaged
■ In directing a tHgonometideal sui vey
of the shores and islands, and taking
the soundings of the St. Lawrence. —
I>is work, if completed in the man
ner it appears to be commenced, will
be a valuable acquisition to trie topo
graphical knowledge of this pail oi
the country. Mr Ellicot. from St.
Regis, preceded via. Montreal to
make similar observations at Rouse’s
Point, on lake Champlain, but h.ol
little expectation of mecf ijjg thecun

’Extract of a Utter; frun Amelia Tsl
<y»d, ffnm a native of Old Spain
io his countryman in Philadelphia,
dalal lst July, isir.
“ Tell on* friend, , that he has
i now n fair opportunity of getting paid
for all the property stolen hy mv dc-
I graded countrymen from him, during
the late period of general pillage oi
American property; you know he per
sisted in having confidence in Mr.
Onis’s negoriation, saying that it
1 tvould speedily result in provision be
ing made for all the property which
Spain had stolen, or aided iu stealing
from the Americans, One year more
I has fled away in vain expectation; the
j period is now approaching when he
; act, for in our presence he swore,
i R f »t “If by the next meeting of c»»n
--; gross, an arrangement was. not effec
tually made for those villainous rob
beries, lie would hazard his last dril
j lar to get satisfaction ” He will be
again disappointed. His remedy is
easy and certain; he can here lit out
a vessel that will soon pay him amply
for ail his losses, and I cannot believe
him capable of setting down longer
submissive to Spanish perfidy. I really
believe that (he minister is favorable
to the revolution—lie certainly has
done much to promote it, (hath, by
not doing any thing nr settling any
thing with the American government.
The dye is now east, his disposition
is of no sort of consequence. This
will he the resort of every man who
has an account to sett e ivith old mo
ther Spain.” — Aurora.
From Buenos Ayres, —We have
been favored by Mr. Topliff, with a
Bueryjs paper of May 14. It contains
an official account of tho capture on
the 15th of April, after a siege of 24
hours, of the town of Triga, making
prisoners of 354 men, including 20
officers, among whom were 9 Lieut,
j Cols, and taking 400 muskets, and
I other instruments of war,— host on
Palladium , July 29.
We understand that col, Wharton,
of (he corps of engineers, while on a
visit to his friends in (his city, was
arrested by order of the secretary of
the navv iu consequence of charges
which - have been exhibited against
hiinbymaj. Henderson. His dial is
to take place at Washington on the
11th August. Capt. C. Stewart of (he

PIRACY.

j The lings Freelove, Dc Moran(;
and Pomona, Kivarde, both belonging
, to (his port, arrived in (lie river a few
j (lavs since, from Campeacliy, On
i their passage, near Sisal, (hey were

known to be (be same (hat wak fined

before her sailing; lay in front ol

of our c otintry,) all appeared (o be A
iiiericans. The amount taken from the
Freelove was inconsiderable: but thej
robbed (be Pomona of near 12.0 CH
dollars in specie, the greatest part o
which was insured ih this city at i
low premium. These free hop tens gav<
the captain and passengers (o tinder

a pocket book from a gentlenuu’s

before he was tried While in pri-

l( j ed, he stole about fifty dollars in mo
