- We are well situated, I am told, for
health. The tort is.on a fine eminence ;

I might be able to afford you some grati

The report'd rCulated is that a party of
Spaniards, to the number of 500, visited
the cftablifhment under the expectation of
finding Bowles at home, he was on a vi
sit to some friends.—They after ajdelay
of 2 or 3 days,/and after destroying-by
fire, Bcc. all his, property.,'retired tq their ’
quarters* he fti'i persists in his effablifh- ,
menthe (Bowles) has many e

I hope he is not deceived.
