They will, p ocqcd over to Tunis, where it Is reported our affairs, are not upon the most favourable footing; the Dey having refused our Consul an audience, and other compelled him to quit Tunis.” From the Liverpool Mercury u Mr ffooler. —On Tuesday, the 19th of June, Mr Woollcr made application, at the Court of King’s Bench, for an era sure of the verdict which had been en tered against him. In support of his motion Mr. Wnoller produced the affi davits of two of the Jurymen, declaring that they did not agree to the verdict.— One of the officers of the court -swore in an affidavit that he heard one of the jury dissent Mr. Wooler, in a very able and manly manner, quoted various law au thorities, ami observed:—“lean ask Tor what, I conceive, I l ave a right to claim —the protection of the court; but I feel so strongly, having received an acquittal from one jury on one information pressed by the attorney-general with all his pow ers, that 1 am entitled to an acquittal on (ho other information also, that my case detnnhds that I should stand firmly for ward in defence of uvy character. What ever b** the consequence, I will assort that I have deserved and ought to receive no punishment. I rest upon this, that there has been no trial, because there has boon no verdict; and no verdict, be cause there was no unanimity. I appeal, then, to your Lordships, whether in law or reason, you can pronounce a rule for a new trial, and suffer a verdict to stand oii the,records of the court to the preju dice ofrny character. \ claim that, that verdict shall be erased.” And again. “I complain of an act of injustice; I contend against a new trial—a thing, in this case abhorrent from all the principles of En glish juri.sp' udence, such as the charac ter of the English administration of jus tice disclaims. If a new trial ordered, dire past trial has been declared to have . terminated with ft Verdict. This is an assumption perfectly Incorrect and un tenable. There was *no unanimity; the jury were not in court when the answer of the foreman was recorded; therefore it was not in any legal, intelligible sense; it was not a verdict. The error—l had no contfouhoverihia error; I have not occa sioned it: I could not have prevented it; I have not been able to correct it. It was not a verdict: I cannot sutler by if;a new trial is absurd, as there lias been no past trial. I cannot be placed in the same circumstances at any future trial; there fore I cannot be exposed tojme. This is the case I submit to the court"” Lord Kllenborough.—“Have you done?” - *Mr, Wooler—“At present.” Lord Ellenbo rough.—'“For ever; let the prisoner be remanded.” 1 GENER.VLSCOTT. QUEBEC, SEPT. 4. On Monday in tlie steam boat Car of ] Commerce, General Winfield Scott, of the United States’ army, arrived in this city, accompanied by one of his aids, and . some other officers of the United Mates service. The object of the General’s visit has not transpired. Mere pleasure, or motives of curiosity ; wholly unconnected with his profession • al character, have probably induced liim , to pay his respects to our invulnerable city; if so, the hospitality of Quebec will convince him, that though ackow ledging and adoring a Monarch, whose -mild and benignant constitutes its . Citizens his Children, rather than his * -subjects—they appreciate and adopt ' with equal zeal to the United States Re- J rpublicans, the injunction of their Wadi- Migton—« Enemies in war, in peace ■ fnends”—* yet, whilst they do ‘so, the 1 General will pardon them for remember- ’ ing and practising in a negative manner' v I . ■ .'lt another of Washington 5 * precepts—*/?? peace .prqbtreffi' war/* I lie general must consider it a personal com pliment, if the prudent of the officers of the garrison evinces, that they 5 have, bet forgotten that ‘fen.

It appears that he had acted as secretary to the ultra reforming society i:; that city, and when their plot was discovered, a con si lei aide ree aid was offered for his ap prehension; ho, however, succeeded in effectually'sCcretiug himself for several pays from the argus-eyed police, when the youqg cv-srcretary foot, his passage, under a feigned name, in a vessel going < own the, river to Chalons, (hi which our informant was passenger.) lie had got safely on board, And the sloop got under weigh: but in less than a quarter of an hour, was hailed to arrest her course.by a boat rowed with great ve locity, and felled with gensd’armesf they got alongside the vessel and demanded if Mr. wan on board; and on being answered in the negative, they ascended , the sloop, and proceeded to examine the passengers, comparing their persons with a minute printed description of the young revolutionist. Ije was soon identified; but instantly leaped overboard, and* was instantly followed by one of the officers;' they both swam well, but the young refu gee finding himself likely to become a captive, gave himself up to desperation; turned round on his pursuer, smiled contemptuously on him, folded his arms and sunk, as all the spectators thought, to rise no more. The officer however was not thus to be deprived of his anti cipated reward; he dived after him, but without effect; a second time hq di ved without.more sucsess, but on a third effort, he was seen to rise, grasping his devoted victim. He swam with him to the vessel, whare means for restoring ani mation were successfully applied. The young fellow was then properly secured, he was taken onshore, tried, found guil ty and executed. From tlie jjoiiton Evening Intelligencer. The beautiful albiness. —The fe male known in England and upon the continent of Europe by this appellation has lately arrived in Quebec, and intends to visit the United States. The race of Albinos is separated into two denomina tions; the first are the white negroes of Africa, who have light hair, blue eyes, and a white body, resembling Europeans when viewed at a distance, but upon a nearer approach the whiteness is pale and livid; the second are those European* who have pink or red eyes, and white, or nearly white hair,eye-brows ami lashes. The instances upon record of the exis tence of the European Albinos are not numerous. Two boy* at Chamouni are mentioned by M. Saussure, the iris of whose eyes was rose colored, and the; , pupil when viewed in the light appeared red. It) their infancy their hair, eye brows, ey c-lashes and the down of their skin Were very fine and of a perfect miik white; but at the age of 20 or 25 the hair was ol a reddish cast and more strong.— M Hazzi,, surgeon to the hospital at Mi lan, dissected a Peasant in 1784, of about SO years o! age, of this discriplion ofper , soiiu for the purpose of accounting,for the physiological peculiarities of their con formation. A fact related by this sur geon seems to throw some light upon the subject—“A woman of Milan had seven sons, of whom, the eldest and tlie two youngest had brown hair and black eyes, and the other three had white skins, white hair ami-red eyes.” The name of the subject of this article is Harvey: and she was born of English parents at* a town in Essex within 40 miles of London. They had six children, three of whom inherited the same dark complexion with themselves, and three, ; including the Albtness, were of the same '• extraordinary appearance. She is about 18 years old, and her two brothers W'ere in the year 1816 exhibited with her at the fair of Hurlem. *Her hair is most won derful, it resembles the appearance of that of the beautiful Angola goat, ex cepting in point of length. It has a beau tiful glossy texture; but is rather coarse,' and she' preserves its beauty by frequent ly immersing it in warm water, and ne ver uses either a comb or brush. Her eyes are apparently in a state of con tinual motion, over which, she has no controul, and at a distance appears to be almost a bright crimson, which colour softens as you approach her (and change the locus -of light) into a soft ipdian pink, or a mixture of rose colour and lilac.— Her countenance is animated and pleas ing, notwithstanding the paleness of her, *A lock of it has been presented to the \ Boston Atlieneupi. ~v 1 » • *""**» 'lfewWJ br mo. dfcsfynncl feirmune French fluently said ft> durWh taste. . * * ® f lhis n» of beings arc so weak that they cannot endure the l;„»a of fright day? and yet when *hc m,?„‘ a shines they can see as keenly as ordina ry human eyes can, in a' perfect li-ht.-L They are altogether d«s(ituto*ot that black membrane called the uvea; the iris 5s perfectly white and the iMipil 0 f a ruse color, f * * I “ The whiteness of the skin and b : ri« ascribed by M. ]J;r/./i to the 0 r I the rote mucosum. which in IdsjtidchS gives Color to the cuticle and the'j.# fl I that are-scattered mcr it: In prool ( ,v I this opinion he «1 ledges a well ki'io'vn fact that if the skin of the blackest r„ >!Bv be any where acchlei.tly dcstiWd, the hair cyhich afterward? prows will-be v.cr' fcfctly white,because the rote mccr-cm is never regenerated with the skin.” From the .iMeditcrraitcsu. From the Philadelphia American,iialK- Advertiser. , Extract tis a letter frohi to hiiijueiid iti thm cttii , (iCite.il T-ewht <l*l. itoads, July 17,1817.“ Dear sir—We sailed from Mahon, on the Btji ofJune,* with the squadron' I and anchored in the Bay of Marseilles* two days afterwards—The Pratique of- 1 I ficer, sent two men on board as a guard, I till the Council should meet, which has I the regulation of quarantine affairs. It is common in several of the Mediterran ean ports, to.send this guard on board ships in quarantine, vyith th» ostensible view of seeing that iliey do not infl-inn-g any of the quarantine laws; but I believe they are spies kept on board, to sift out the object of the vessels in coming into the port. x We found Cleopatra’s Barge, ami the J British frigate Tagus, cr.pt. Dundas, here. I The Tagus is, without exception, the I neatest rigged ship I ever saw, and is kept in elegant order.—She sailed for I Malta, the day after our arrival; they have a British ambassador to'the Grand I Seignior, op board, and will carry him to I Constantinople. We saluted the town with 21 guns, which was.returned, with the like num ber of guns, N in the worst Order I ever ! heard. The beauty of a salute consists in the regularity of time between the intervals of firing:—The French paid I no attention to this, in, returning ouis. I On the third day after cur arrival, I were informed that we were quarantined I for fifteen days from the tune we diopt I anchor, on account of having Mr. Si.a- ; er on board; the usual quarantine from- I fort Mahon, being but ton days, from the day a vessel left that port. Mr. Shalcr had then been from, Algiers 40 days, and received pratique in two dif ferent ports.—The Commodore dered tins unusual quarantine as a mark •of enmity on their part, and determined ■ on leaving the port, without wailing for pratique, which we did on the Itllh.— The day before we sailed the Spark slip- 1 ■ ped her cables, and went to sea in a gale of wind. This lengthened quarantine might have ? been mere etiquette on the part of the ■ French, as they are very particular in trifles: The Commodore is determined |f never to enter another French port, «sa | friend, unless ordered by the Isavy I3e partment. *• * f Mr. Fitch, an American merchant, at If Marseilles, was alongside of this ship- I 'and represented that place, as in a mis- ■ erable condition. They had had but I four hours rain months, and k;> ■ the crops had failed. The government I officers found it impossible to collect the I taxes, as it tool; all the poorer clasw-’ I could earn, to purchase bread. Mr. ■ Fitch says, that if the people are not re I lievcd in some manner, commotions will, ■ take place. .France is divided within I herself, and’very little will kindle up ll tj blaze, which Louis will find difficult, to I extinguish. ■ One evening, whilst we lay in Mr- ■ seilles, there was a boat with six or eig't I gcntlernenly looking men in it, ■ round this ship, viewing her, when o;ir I band struck up the Marseilles Ilyinu. I You will recollect, tliat, in the time of the ■ French Revolution,this was, at one mot' ■ the national tune. They used to sing |y throughout the ranks, in action, a |ia ■ charge with it; it inspired them in ■ i ll ' I same manner, as the bagpipes do tnc I Scotch Higlanders, ‘ The leader ;1 |y principal part of our band are Irene,* and, I believe, struck up this tune l!in 1 ' B tionally, as it is treason to play itu ,,, _<-‘ the existing government. The tune I no sooner struck up than the peoph* ' ■ ■ tho boat pulled off their hats, beat time, clapped, cheered, and npi-'* ■ ed frantic with joy; it gave them no ■ , life. The principal part ol th>*i« c ‘ ■ , well recollect the time when tins • ■ 1 was first brought in fashion;P P 11 ! 1 1 some of them had rashed on to 1 . ■ with it in their mouths! what 11 e ‘V ■ E must have brought into taen’ j Once it was considered as a . | ,[. )V ■ 1 true hearted Frenchman, to sing I it, now, that of a traitor to h* s .fthet I 1 Thepe trifling incident's tend to sir ■ - disposition of the. people. ■ t We anchored 2n the bay ot W. , L | „ on the £l«t, Tb* Island
