Lord Amherst and Bonaparte.
The t -teaar, which in consequence of 1
the loss of the Alceste frigate, recently
brought home Lord Amherst and las suite
from Batavia, is the bearer of the latest
intelligence from St. Helena, relative to
(bohealth ami manner of living of "the
Ex-Emperor of France. The Ctesar ha
ving occasion to touch at St, jlclena,
lord Amherst expressed a desire to.be
introduced to Bonaparte, andan -spite of
some obstacles which preheated ‘them
selves, bis lord ship, with capt. Maxwell
and Mr. Lynn, suigeon of the, Alct ste,
'was allowed to wait upon him.. On the
3d of duly, lord A.'was ushered into Bo
naparte’s presence at Longwood,.whilst’'
capt. M. and the'surgeon waited in an
anti-chamber. It was nut long before,
those officers were desired to join.’ There
was nothing in ‘the appearance of Bona
parte which in the least indicated ill
healths on the contrary he looked well
and wap less bloated than ordinary, in
his conversation with the party, his ques
tions were put with the usual rapidity;
indeed they followed each other in such
quick succession, that answers could on
ly be given to those Avlncb-anpcarcd most
marked and important. "With Jiis gen-i
eral curiosity, lie naparte inquired ot the
officers what stations they filled on hoard
the ship, and on leanng (hat Mr. Lynn
was the surgeon, he inquired what sys
tem ot pharmacy he pursued. “That
depends.upon circumstances,” replied
the surgeon. “I hope,” ruplied-the ge
neral, “it is any other than that practi
sed in >this island; for here we hove the
same thing over and over again-—bleed
ing and calomel forever.” The conver
sation taking a turn on .the mission of.
Lord A. to China, his lordship related
.the cause of itsia.ilurejwhich he ascribed
to the necessity imposed,upon.Tim by the
emperor of smiting the ground nineteen
times with his forehead; an indignity,
which his lord ship intimated could not
be submitted to. Here Bonaparte's an
swer showed the man—“lndeed! Now
had it suited my policy to send an am
bassador to the emperor of China,! should
have instructed him to kiss his great toe;
and if that would not do, he might if re
quired, salute a more offensive paid, pro
vided my object could be attained.”
In the course of conversation Bona
parte said lie knew of no law winch gave j
thepowers of Europe the right of detaining
him,a prisoner at St. Helena or else
where; and strongly urged the propriety
of his .present situation being taken into
consideration by the crowned heads of
Europe. Notwithstanding his disap
pointments, he still affects great reli
ance on the justice of the Prince Regent,
of England, when unconnected with na-:
tioual policy and the influence of min
isters; and, with -this impression on his
mind, he expressed an anxious widb that
lord Amherst would be the bearer of a
letterdfrom him to his royal highness,
which had been prepared some time, with
the intention of forwarding it to England.
VVc have reason to believe we are cor
rect in stating, that his lordship under
took to deliver the letter in question. It
is said to be coached in the most respect-,
ful terms; but discovers a sereness thro’-
out oa account of the unnecessary re
straints he alledges that he is. made to
undergo. The officers of -the Atoeste
faoad that he can have tbeoange of the
i,
whole Island infiis exercise ofriJSng, IS- I
ving or walking, provided he will allow 1
a British to attend him; but to
thtt be objects. As it is, he may extend
his walks about 12 miles, but then he is j
liable to meet in his perambulations Bri
tish sentinels at various points, who ne- '
ver fail to present arms to him. Madame <
Bertrand was seen by the British officers, 1 -
and the impression made upon them was,
that she was a very handsome and cle
ver woman.

The accounts from all parts of the! i
cquntry, contain* the most cheerful Intel- i
ligence of tire state of the crops, and the !
propitious weather whidi the country:
has generally enjoyed, during the last
week, for leaping and securing the har
vest. We are also glad tb observe from
tlie same accounts, that the Iron, the
Woollen, the Cotton, (he Leather, the
• Soap and the Candle manufactures, are ,
all rapidly increasing. Every loom, eve
ry factory almost in the kingdom, em- '
ploys more men, or gives them higher
pay than it did six months ago Com
merce equally Increases throughout our
ports.
1 lie harvest in this neighborhood has
partially commenced; and from the very
line warm weather we had during the
last week, we suppose that it will become
general in this neighborhood and Chesh
ire, in the course of the present week.
We are happy to observe, the demand
for cotton in uur market, still continues
very brisk; the sales during the last
fortnight, amount to about 30,000 bags.
September 10.
There have been imported into Liver
pool, from the United States of America,
between the Ist September, 1816, and
the Ist September 1817, not less than
' 493,514 barrels of flour, which, together
with the grain brought from the same
country, would be sufficient to load 2786
vessels of l6t) tons each.
Baltimore, Oct. 13.
The ship Dumfries, capt. Hillert, ar
rived at this port yestmla/, brings Li
verpool papers of later dates than any
heretofore recived, being to September

rusal of several of these papers, and find
diem entirely destitute of interest—con
taining nothing worth extracting.
The crops in England, as has been an
nounced in previous papers, are uncom
monly promising, and a still greater de
pression in the price of produce gene
* rally is anticipated; and ir is confidently
asserted that the ports for the reception
of grain will be closed on the 15th prox
imo. .
Flour was selling at 48 to 50 shillings
—Upland cotton, ls 6d to Is 9d—Virgi

We have been favoured with the fol
lowing extracts of letters from the house

Liverpool, Sept. I. '
The sales of cotton, during this week
amount to 13000 bags, at 19 to 22d for
uplands; Sid to 2s for for NOrleans; 2s

demand is very good.

SAVANNAH, Oct 2o.
TO THE PUBLIC.
_ On the 15th of September I sailed from
Nassau, N. P. bound to Bamcoa, laden
with goods to the amount of one thou
sand two hundred dollars, (this can ea
sily be proved by my papers and the do
cuments of the custom-house.) On the
£7th of the same month, arrived on the
coast of Cuba, at 5 p. m. discovered a
fishing boat with two men making to
wards us, and when at hailing distance,
they enquired where 1 was bound ty,
and being informed that I was going to
Barracua, they supplicated me to give
them a passage, observing that they were
inhabitants of that place, and that thek
boatwas leaky,and about sinking. I,urged
by h. ununity, gave them passage, On the
28th, at 4 a.m. being tome east of Panto
Mnlas, I Was taken by a schooner from
Amelia, named Serra, commanded by
Edward Fennel, and owned by Morrison
ot that place. VVe were boarded with:
out any kind of respect to the Hag of his
Britannic Majesty, and without exam
ining the papers commenced plundering.
I was rubbed of my vVatch, 14 dollars
and in y clothes. At 8 a.m. the two ves
vessela were anchored at a pla6e named
Narango. These pirates proceeded to
examine my napers, after which they de
cided on sending my crew on
This was immediately done, however not
.before my poor fellows had been robbed
of all they had. When they were land
ed on the beach, three muskets were fir
ed at them for the purpose of forcing them
to retire in the woods. At the place
where we bad anchored there was-a Spa
nish schooner laden with tobacco, which
was aUfi taken, two vessels were then
ordered to the Island of Amalia, and es
corted by the privateer. On the 4th of
October, as we were about entering the
harbor of the above mentioned. We were
boarded by the boat of the United States
brig Saranac, John Eaton, Esq. comman
der, which ordered ns along side of the
brie. The captain,after being informed
oft! ie circumstance* which had brought
us to that port, sent off a boat to order
the nrivatear along side also. The pi
rates were arrested and put on board oi
the Saranac, and on the 6th, the Two
Brothers wert ordered to Savannah, with
an officer, five men, the captain of the
privateer, and one of his sailors. When
watering on Jeykil Island, the captain
made his escape
The same privateer, in her cruise be
.forii the last, hai| robbed from on boar'.
