at this port yesterday, aP’c Current of
the 10 h ult., the names of American ves

items of interesting matter, for which we
thank him. Our letter says: 4 ‘ Our mar
kets continue to be pretty fair ; the last
sales of flour by the cargo sold at SB, and
by the hundred barrels $9 —Corn meal, per
puncheon, sl7, and corn from 60 to 80
cents per bushel, the quality regulating the
prices altogether; the white gourd-seed

yellow. lam induced to believe the mar
ket will continue good, for we have a great
many English vessels here, which take
away (he American produce as fast as it
arrives. We have no political news, or
news of any kind worth relating, except
that the weather has been very warm for
the -eason, hut our Island continues re
markably healthy.'’
Fromßio-dc-Janeiro —Through the po-
Iheness of commercial houses in this city,
wo have received a file of Rin-de- Janeiro
papers to the 18tn Oct., and letters from
the same quarter to the 20th. From a let*
ter cf the 17th, with a P. S. and a Price
Current of the 14th, we extract what we
conceive of most value to our commercial
readers. We have not before info- med,
that capt. Thnmps n, of the luglc Horn,
which arrived on Tuesday rooming, left bis
vessel on Monday night, in a calm, below
the Potomac, aud went on board a steam
boat, v hich he supposed was bound here,
but which in fact look h in, with his letter*
bag, to Washington, and theiefue
prevented his reaching here sooner than
Tuesday night—too late for us to profit by
his intelligence in out paper of yesterday

41 Rio D’ Janeiro, 13i 1 i Oct. IS2B
44 Since our res >ecis of . lie 24’i ult., 13
A neiican vessels have arrived, bringing an
addition to the stock of flour, ofabout £,OOO
barrels, of which 3 have gone to RioGrande
carrying 170 bids, leaving a supply on
hand of 12 a 14,000. Tile New Orleans
and L dona, o ve gone to Montevideo,
with about 1800 barrels. None has yet
arrived from Richmond* —we are hourly
ex meeting 2 or 3 cargoes, the first of which
will probably find ready sale at 13.$ a 14$
4 Os tli ■ new from Baltimore, but little
has been sold. At the moment, the market
is very dull for flour, as well as every thing
else. As the quantity of the former on
hand is divided among several bouses, it
suff ‘ts, the disadvantage of a want of mo
il poly, and we look for a decline from
annexed nominal quotations,— indeed, the
heavy supply cannot be disposed of at above j
11$, and should any anxiety to sell, be ma-1
infested, it may be expected to go much I
lower. The holders are riot now willing
to give way in price, but there is no change
of getting rid of it otherwise, as there are
aiwavs remnants of cargoes and small par
cels which must be forced off—dealers buy
sparingly with a view to get down the price,
a> foul the rum< r of holders they count on :
a jealousy, which will soon work itself into J
active exertions to outstrip each other in I
quickness of sale.
44 We have only to confirm w hat has i
already been advised, that we anticipate an 1
unpr fitable commerce with this part of the
world for many months; indeed the trade
is over done, and the dem ind has been far
sli -rt of th* supply of all imports for a long j
time, and this discrepancy is likely to be i
much increased by speculations on the pros- j
pe*- r of peace, all which will result with j
loss. •
“ Our cnffpf* crop will not bo so produc- i
tive .s I st year—the quality, generally, is.
also inferior, also—it is extremely difficult j
to gs-t prime parcels, even at an advance in i
price. *he planters cannot afford to bring I
it so market at present rates, and it will be.
withheld, which will prevent such a reduc
ti ni from quotations as to make it a fair re- ,
mittance. The sugar crop at Campos will
aU be short, and yield an unusual propor
ti Muscovados. At Santos, the crop
w ii be larger than usual, and at Bahia it
ivd be double that of last year—say 60,000
cases.
“ The finances of the country are by no
me >ns in circumst tices to inspire confi
dence, and although the retum of peace
vail relieve the treasury of heavy demands,
it is not believed exchange will improve
much; the depreciation in the currency
niav therefore be expected to continue.
“ Our dates from Montevideo are to 25th
ult.; peace wa not concluded, but there
w s ho doubt the treaty would be ratified—
-9,C00 barrels of flour had anived within
to,i ; vs, and more was expected— 15 ves
sels wa re loading for Buenos Ayres* Our
con rrpondeot adds, after noticing the pros
per! of peace.—“ W lut ruinous business
wrli be made in Buenos Ayres!—Nothing
wis saleable there a few days ago—l was
going to say it would he wor’se—here we
a e all at a stand too. Flour (in sunfl par*
cels) is offering at from 9to 11 $ currency. 1 * i
“ F-om Buenos Ayres under date 19th
ult. they write, “as yet \vc have had no
failure—several houses must go—in fact,
• hirie is no credit or confidence in any, and
business will be very bad indeed—if you
will take the advice of a friend, you will
not send any property to this market.”

“We have the pleasure to inform you
that the treaty of peace entered into be*
tween the Buenos Ayres agenftand this

Thieves. —W iihin a few days past our
Police Magistrates, as well as the constables
attached to the Police, have been much
engaged in the examination of thieves and
in the recovery of property which has been
recently stolen from the dwellings of our
inhabitants. Avery large amount has been
i secured ; a great number of persons have
recovered their goods ; and there yet re
main in the office many articles for
which no owners have appeared A
; person who has attended occasionally]
!in the Police Office for the last few days,
; has had an opportunity to see the persons
arrested for thefts, and to hear disclosures
by the theives themselves and the evidence
of those who have been robbed. With
regard to robberies of an extensive nature!
such for instance as caryitig off the contents
of a clothing store jewellery shop, dec. the
persons engaged are of of a deferent de- I
scription from entry robbers, or pettv;
thieves. Extensive robberies are mostly i
committed by old rogues men in years,*
u ho have in many instances often been the
tenants of p.isous. Their plans are in
general deep laid and threat adroitness is,
used in their mode of plundering. Still
they seldom elude detection for any great
length of time ; for being generally known
to the Police Officers their movements are
watched and their characters always sus
pected. This class of persons may also
be genera Iv discovered or at least suspec
ted from the'rr manner of life. They dress
well and perform no labour; occupy apart
ments in obscure streets in most cases and
are without any other family than a female
who passes for the wife of someone of the
gang who dresses fashionably, and lives at
at her ease having the labour of her house
hold performed by others and most of the
work done abroad in order that the villan
iny going on within may be undiscovered.
Persons of this description may in eight
cases out of ten be safely suspected as rob
bers and bv paying a little attention to their
movements the villainy will be made man
ifest.
Those who pilfer coats, hats, watches,
spoons, &> are mostly of a younger class
and may pass from their age and appear
ance for servants. The system of depre
dation which they follow requires great
expertness. Many of the thieves of this de
scription are from 18 to 25 years of age
some with and some without trades.—
From the examinations before the Police,
j their crimes generally proceed from drink
i ing and idleness. Their first acquaintance
with their thieving companions is at a shuf
fle board or nine pin alley ; or some place
t of amusement or tipling house ; there they
get something to drink ; and afterwards
agree to commit a robbery. Success in
their new avocation makes them bolder,
and they go on until caught. They are
• sentenced to prison but pardoned in a little
while and commenced stealing again.—
: One rogue of this description is sufficient
to contaminate many individuals. A gang
‘is formed consisting of whites and blacks
• and some cellar or back building in the up
i per part of the city is made a place of depo
sit for the plunder. Whenever a number
;of idle blacks are found living together
loitering about a!l hours of the day and
’ going home and out again frequently in the
i night they may almost invariably be suspec
ted as thieves. And when white lads are
seen frequently with them and accom-
I paying them to their houses suspicion may
always be excited and their resort and
movements should be given to the Police <
This remark also applies to similar move- f
ments among whites .The principle gangs
of theivns caught from lime to time live
. and move much iu the maimer iffut we have
described. j
j There is another class of theives who
commit petty thefts and the moment they
get an article go with it to houses where
stolen goods are bought, and sell it.—
Many of the receivers of stolen goods
have licences to take goods upon pawn,
which is too often only a cloak for en
couraging thefts. It istiue that the} make
a general report, from time to time, of
the articles lefi with them in pawn ; but
they take good care to suppress a part of
their business which is the buying of stolen
property Whenever a search is made by
tha Police in places of ths description sto
len property comes to light by wholesale.
Licences of this description in the bands of
: honest pers- ns have a great tendency toen
i Ci-urage roguery as one of the first objects
jOi a thief is to inquire how he can dispose
cl hts plunder ; and finding e/ery facility
he wants with these persons he is strongly
encouraged to pursue his business.

The dangers of sailing in high latitudes.
AWFUL INCIDENT.
One serene evening in the middle of Au
gust, 1775, captain Warrens, the master of
a Greenland whalesbip, found himself be
calmed among a vast number of icebergs in
about 77 deg. north latitude. On one side,
and within a mile of his vessel, these were
of immense height and closely ridged to
gether, and a succession of snow covered
peaks appeared behind each other as far as
the eye could reach, shewing that the ocean
was completely blocked up in that quarter,
and that it had probably been so for a long
period of time. Captain Warrens did not
feel altogether satisfied with his station, but
there being no wind, he could not move
either one-way or another, and he there
fore kept a strict watch, knowing that he
would be safe as long as the surrounding
icebergs continued in tbeir respective pla
ces
About midnight the wind rose so a gale,
accompanied by thick showers of show,
while a succession of tremendous thunder
ing, grinding, and crashing noises gave
fearful evidence that the ice was in motion.
The vessel received violent shocks every
moment ; for the haziness of the atmos
phere prevented those on board from dis
covering in what direction the open water
lay, or if there actually was any at all on
either side of them. The night was spent
in tacking as often as any cause of danger
happened to present itself, and in the morn
ing the storm abated and captain War
rens found to bis great joy that his ship had
not sustained any serious injury; He re
marked with surprise that the accumulated
icebergs which had on the preceding even
ing formed an inpenetrable barrier, had
been separated and disarranged by the
wind, and that in one place a canal of open
sea wound its course among them as far as
the eye could discern.
It was two miles beyond the entrance of
this canal, that a ship made i:s appearance
about noon. The sun shone brightly at
the time and a gentle breeze blew from
the north. At first some intervening ice
berg prevented captain Warrens from dis
tinctly seeing any thing but her masts, but
he was struck with the strange mariner in
which her sails were disposed, and with the
dismantled aspect of her yard and rigging.
She continued to go before the wind for a
few furlongs, artd then grounding upon the
low icebergs, remained motionless.
Captain Warrens’ curiosity was so much
excited, that he immediately leaped into
his boat with several seamen, and rowed
towards her. On approaching he observed
thai her hull was miserably weather beaten,
and not a soul appear*d upon the deck
which was covered with snow to a eonsi-
derable depth. He hailed her crew several
times but no answer was returned. Previ
ous so stepping on board, an open port
hole near the main chains caught his eye,
and on looking into it, he perceived a man
reclining bacK. in a chair, with writing
materials on a small table before him, btu
the feebleness of the light made every
thing very indistinct. The pirty there
fore went upon deck, and having removed
the hatchway which they found closed
descended to the cabin. They first came
to the apartment which captain Warrens
viewed through the port hole. A tremour
seized him as lie entered it. Its inmate
retained his former position and seemed
to he insensible to strangers. He was found
to be a corpse, and a green damp mould
had covered bis ch3eks and forehead and
veiled his open eye balls. He held a pen
iu his hand, and a log book lay befcie him,
the last sentence in whose unfinished page
ran thus, “11th Nov 1762; we have now
been enclosed in the ice seventy days.—
The fire went out yesterday and our master
has been trying ever since to kindle it again
without success His wife died this morn
ing. There is no relief *
* Captain Warrens and his seamen, hurried
from the spot without uttering a word.—
On entering the principal cabin, the first
object that attracted their attention was
the dead body of a female reclining on a
bed in an attitmie of deep interest and at
tention. Her countenance retained the
freshness of life, and a contraction of the
limbs alone showed that her form was in
•
animate. Seated on the floor in one corn
er of the room, was the corpse of an ap
parently young man holding a steel in one
hand and a flint in the other, as if dn the
act of striking fire upon soma tinder which
lay beside him.
In the fore part of the vessel several
sailors were found lying dead in their births,
and the body of a dog was crotuhed at the
bottom of the gang-way stairs. Neither
provisions nor fuel could be discovered any
where, but captain ’Aarrens was prevented
by the superstitious prejudices of his sea
men from examining the vessel as minutely
as he wished to have done. He therefore
carried away the log book already mention
ed and returned to his own ship, and im
mediately steered to the southward deeply
impressed with the awful example which he
bad just witnessed of the danger of navi
gating the polar seas, in high northern lati
tudes. On returning to England, he made
various inquiries respecting vessels that had
disappeared in an unknown way, and bv
Comparing the results of these with the in
foruution which was afforded by the written
documents in his possession, be ascertained
the name and the history of the imprisoned
ship and of her unfortunate master, anu
found that she had been frozen up seven
teen years’ previous t the time of his dis*
covering her among the ice.
Guatemala. —The Boston Journal pub
lishes two decrees of the Executive of the
Province of Guatemala, one of which goes
to prohibit Spanish subjects from entering
the territory, or disembaiking in any of
the ports of the Republic. The natives of
tlie Isthmus, or any of the Spanish posses
sions, who have been domiciled in the Re
public, and may have gone out temporarily,
may return, without hindrance, if they are !
provided with a passport. And the above
description of persons may go out, provided
they intend to return.
The other decree closes the ports of tire
Republic against the Spanish flag, and the
fruits and productions of the soil and indus
try of Spain,her colonies and dependencies;
and these shall not in any manner be intro
duced into the Republic, even when the
properly therein has been legally passed to
a neutral. And, furthermore, the exporta
tion of the productions and manufactures
of Central America to any port subject to
the Spanish government is prohibited.

was removed from its sanctuary in the ser
aglio to be placed at the head of the zeal

fence of their threatened empire, and the
grand seignior proceeded from his palace
to the camp formed at Ramed Pasha Chi
fl:k. These measures which are consider
ed by the Turks as extreme ones and never
to be resorted to but in most critical mo
ments, had been so long talked of that peo

aged in these d>ubts by the inactivity of the
Russians the obstinate defence of Varna
and dai y reports of brilliant successes ob
tained by the arms of the faithful. On the
14th, however it was generally known that
the sangiac sheriff*was to be prodoced, and
the Greeks and other rayahs were advised
to keep out of the way as the Turks have
always entertained the prejudice these rep
robated beings on its passage is ominous of
misfortune, and have hitherto been accus
tomed to irronlt and beat them. Several
French resident's el Pera, led by curiosity
and encouraged by the great falling off in
matters of religious fanaticism and the im
provement in the general demeanour of the
Turks ventured over to Constantinople and
were spectators of the imposing ceremony.
Preceded by the sacred banner which was
enveloped in a covering of green silk, and
and followed by all the grandees of the
empire still about the capital the sultans
issued from the grand portal of the seraglio
about noon.— The splendid cavaleade pro
ceeded at a solemn pace through the long
streets of the city until they reached one of
the principal gates (the gate of Adrianople)
where they halted a few minute’s >o allow
time to ihe imaums to go through some
prayers and religious ceremonies; they
then continued their march, followed bv an
immense multitude of Mussulmans all in
their best garbs to the heights of Ramed
Cniflik, which is not more than a mile &
a half from the walls of the City. The
snngrac sheriff was deposited in a magni
ficeut tent covered with green silk, and a
certain number of the priesthood and two
high military dignities were appointed to
watch over the the sacred relic. The Sol
tan returned to the barracks situated on the
suburb of Ramed Chiflik, and which arc
spacious and afford some excellent quarters.
An encampment is formed round the bar
racks for the troops that are collecting on
that point ami which as yet are not very
numerous. The feelings of many of the
Turks seemed touched by the novel specta
• vie of their monarch leaving his palace for
the field i-nd tears are said to have rushed
to the eyes of the sultan as he rode forth
from the gate of the seraglio, and saw the
expression of melancholy depicted on the

The remark has been often made by { or .

bitterness, that a stranger sunposes

when the polls are closed, and the strangtr

and bloody noses, the people go quietly

A beautiful illustration, on a large scale
of this peculiarity in the character cf a per*
fipctlv free people—free even to the hm *
ideal of liberty—has been observed inib
assembling of congress at the present ses
sion The violence of the recent contest
for the choice of electors, has not beenej.

members of congress have necessarily
mingled in it, most of them warmly, and
some of the n conspicuously. But, in their
salutations, and in the visible intercoursa
between them, nothing is observable but
that respect which they owe, reciprocally,
to their official station, and the amenity acij
propriety which dignify even that station.
The personal observation of this state of

upon the feelings of those partisans who, if
