In several flreetsthey called out, Vive Orleans ! LONDON, September 7. [We often hear that trench bravery is inspired by a love of Liberty. What inspires the Algerines ninth bravery ? Read the following :] OBSTINATE CONFLICT. The following article, dated Faro, Au gust 12, was received by the last Lif- # bon mail : “ An Algerine Corsair fall of men, was lately funk off Cape St. Vincent's by two Portuguese men of war, after a moft del pe rate and bloody conflift of nine glaiies, wherein vast numbers were killed on both Tides. The Rover main tained the aftion with such firmnefs and undaunted resolution that at one time it was doubtful whether (he would not have beat them both off, notvvithftand ing the iupeiiof odfis against her. The Portuguese behaved manfully, ahd of fered to give quarters provided they would ftnke, which generous and hu mane offer the pirates with horrid im- ’ precations difdainfully refufed ; and so revengeful were the Infidels to the lass, that they fired grape and partridge shot from the decks, and fraall arms out of the top, into the men of war, as they were finking, which did great mifehief among the people. Both the lnips were feverelv fhattered —one, had several shot between wind and water, which made her very leaky, and her fails and rigging almost cut to pieces ; the other had her foremaft andbowipritcarried away, with part of her starboard bow, and a large shot went fifteen inches into the main mast. It is thought the pirates had expended'all their cannon-balls, as in the latter part of the engagement they fired from the great guns marling /pikes, ting-bolts, rusty nails, bits of iron, and lead cut in iquare pieces. “ What is alfonifhing, the Captain was seen nailing the colours to the mast as the ship was finking ; when done, he pulled a pistol from his bread and shot himfelf: through the head—He was a bold, daring fellow, and would often attack lhips of double his own force, fornetimes made prizes of them, and al ways fought under the bloody flag.” BOTANY BAY. By a letter from Governor Hunter, New-South Wales, to his friends in Leith, dated 16 of October, 1795, we have the following particulars. “ This settlement is wonderfully im proved fmee the time I left it.—lt ap pears now to be making rapid progress towards an independance for provision. Our cornfields (Wheat) at this present moment appears as beautiful and luxuri ant as any 1 ever saw in any part of the world, and barring those accidents to which all-countries are liable, we shall have a rich and abundant harvest. Our gardens are equally produtftive ; we shall have a variety of liuit, European as well as tropical.—Our grapes are in immense quantities , fome of the gen 'lemen from their own gardens cxpedl to make a butt, fome two butt’s cf wine Columbian iHtjfcum, &c. this year. The few cattle we have are thriving amazingly. • The iheep and goats are wonderfully prolific*j three iambs at a time is no uncommon thing, and that twice a year.;-the goats itill more so. We find the best breed’ of iheep to be the small Bengal ewe and the large Cape ram; they produce a middle size, which is delicate fine meat. All the fuperfluous males among the goats are prepared for the pot or i'pit ; and arc so fine, that I would dety even an epi cure to fay whether it was mutton or qaperato he was eating. t “ The four gentlemen, whom the ac tivity of the magitfrates of Edinburgh provided for our colony, I have seen, and conversed with feperately since my arrival here, they feemall of them gifted in the powers of conversation. Muir was the firft I law : I thought, him a fenfibie, modest young man, of a very • retired turn, which certainly his situa tion in this country will give him an. opportunity ot indulging: hefaid noth-! ing on the severity ot his fate ; but seemed to bear his circumstances with a proper degree of fortitude and resigna tion. “ Skirving was the next I r 'w ; he l appeared to me to be a fen fib 1 in formed man; not you r —he is fond of tanr> : afed a piece of - which v.. , his advantage. “ Mr. Palmer paid fit; he is laid to be a tuibi find ot man, it may be so, 1,.. „... ... im thejulfice to fay, that I have seen noth ing ot that disposition in him since ray arrival. “ Mr. Margarot seems to be a lively, facetious talkative man ; complained” heavily of the injustice of his sentence. in vvfiiich, however, he found I could not agrfpwith him. I chose to appoint a time for feeing each feperately ; and on the whole, I have to fay, that their gen eral conducl is quitedecent, and orderly ; if it continues so, they will not find me disposed to be harsh or diftrefiing to them.” BOSTON, Oftober 14. An arrival on Wcdnefday last at Cape Ann, fix days before, tell in with a French fleet of 1 1 fail of the line and fix frigates from France, bound on an ex pedition against Halifax. They were then about tea leagues weft of that place, and detained the above veflel fix hours, examining her very closely, during which time the captain had the fulleit evidence of their force and deltination. Halifax has been lately strengthened in its force, and has a trained militia and two or three regiments of regular troops, (including a provincial.) Prince Edward commands there. The naval force, which will probably be at the place, mult be coniiderable. T hey have a well finilhed magazine of naval and military stores, and a superb dock-yard at the above place. NEW-YORK, Oftober 24. On Saturday the ship Albermarle, Captain Lang, and Two Friends, Capt. Dean, arrived at this port, in 31 days from the Texel. Captain Deane, was at Amsterdam on the 20th September, on which day, there were reports in circulation favoura ble to Jouidan, that he had received re inforcements, rallied and beat the Aus trians in turn—But we dare not place much confidence in thefc accounts. Fourteen ships of phe line and five frigates lay at the Texel, and an Eng lish fleet of twenty odd, fail, were cop ltantly cruising oft"and on. By the (hip Swan, Capt. Woodham, from Liverpool yesterday, we have the London Star of Sept. 16, 19, and 20, and a hand-bill printed at Liverpool on the 22d September, all the intercfting accounts of which we shall give to-mor row.

CHARLESTON, November 21.

His expiring moments were marked with that peculiar firmnefs of mind, whicli attended him through life, and his last words delivered in whispers, were more fublimcly eloquent, than all the studied declamation of the pulpit— <( The feene (said he) is now closing, the business of life is nearly over; I have like the rest of my fellow creatures, been guilty of foibles ; but I trust to the mercy of my God to pardon them , and to his jufiicc , to reward my good deeds.” By his family, by his friends, by men of sense and genius, who knew him, his death will be long lamented.
