JUMOD ONELL. Exmouth, Admiral and Commander, Ac. On the 4th May, six Dutch frigates were at Gibraltar, waiting for a reinforcement of a 74 and a frigate, to go against Algiers. NEW ORLEANS. Arrived this forenoon, the ship Paragon, in 19 days from New Orleans! The water had ceaS- ed to rise, and measures were immediately to be taken to open a sufficient number of ditches for draining oft'the water from the high land in to the cypress swamp, whence it might find its way into Lake Poncnertrain. For tins purpose the corporation had issued an ordinance author ising the mayor to hire of their owners as many slaves as can he procured by beat of drum, and .place. +hem under the care of a Mr- Janesse, city ■surveyor, with a sufficient number of drivers whom (he the mayor) was to chuse, and the whole expence to be borne by the corporation of New- Orleans. By the arrival of the ship Mexico, from Liver pool, we bave received Lloyd’s Lists to the 2.4th, Glasgow papers to the 26th, and Liverpool to the 29to >( April. ** From one of them we copy inun ba the following distressing account of an tion which r.appened in Germany. Marienbuhgh, March^l. DREADFUL INUNDATION. The distress caused in our neighborhood by the inundation is greater than the severest evils of tar. In the night the dykes were burst in two places. One breach was 20 and the other 70 rods broad. In the darkness of the night, it was impossible for the inhabitants to do more than save themselves, by retreating to the up per part of their houses. At break ofdav a most' dreadful scene appeared: a district of 17 Ger man Square (423 English square) miles of the most fertile land under water. Every where were.seen white sheets, and shirts hung out as signals of distress, and from every roof the cries O! tije sufferers were heard. Up to the 25th, 2(7; cattle were drowned in Milantz alone.— T.:e uorftinued cold makes the distress infinite. Daily we see the flames arise in the midst of the water waste, because the people, bertumbed with coi i, 6 y to warm themselves, by making fires in *oit oi their houses. FROM SOUTH AMERIC A. By the arrival of the brig Holkaiy captain King, in j9 days from Rio Grande, we learn that an expedition, consisting of Portuguese and Spaniards, had arrived before Buenos Ayres With the intention of attacking the place and rescuin g it from the hands of the Patriots. FROM HALIFAX. We m.->t, day 'tail. iave received Halifax papers, to the 1st by the British sloop Olive, arrived ih 12 ■ ora that city, The latest paper states, several American fishing vessels had lately be# untamed, oy his majesty’s brig Portia, and syit into Surinam, “in pursuance of.the instruc tions fijom lord Bathurst of the 17th of June, It la, w.iich prohibit the Americans from taking fish m tiie bays of the British provinces, Boston, June 14. By the Elizabeth, which arrived yesterday at M_u n:ehead from Marseilles, we learn that on ''i Utii of April, the United States’ sloojl of r Ontario was at that port. The report that l ' c British Mediterranean squadron had pro ceeded against Algiers is confirmed. Reparation of Maine.— i esterday the joint cmnni.ttee on the subject, reported to the senate, hat tney found the number of votes in Maine for V ^'^ration was 10,584—the number against it ^ L and the whole number of qualified voters .I 1 / 8 towns which furnish the returns, 37,938. fr comaut tee also reported a-bill providing r the separation of sgid district and calling a convention of delegates for the purpose of form ing a constitution; Which report and bill were read,ana this day, at 11 o’clock, was assigned for the second read ing of the bill, and six hundred copies orderec to be printed.

In a late debate in the French chamber of de puties,' Mr. Hyde de Neuville, (ambassador to the United States) said, “we wish not to des troy any thing belonging to the French revolu tion, except what it has produced of an immoral and Anti-religious nature. We wish to preserve all that is useful.”—National-Intelligencer. THE STEAM-BOAT ENTERPRISE. W e were gratified yesterday by the arrival of tiie steam-boat Enterprise, captain Howard from Savannah. She came by the inland passage.— Her external ornaments not being completed, she has, as yet, a rude appearance to the eye— but we understand, in a few days, will be fitted up with every accommodation for passengers, as she is intended to run between Charleston and Sullivan’s Island.—Char. South. Fat. PROFITABLE PLAYING. Mr. Simpson, stage manager of the New-York theatre, had-a benefit on Monday night, in that city, which produced him nearly nineteen hun dred doll&rs— an amount not equalled since the days of Cooke.—Aurora. The conversion in New-England must be ex tensive, when we observe, that the governor of Massachusetts lias delivered (as the reader has seen,) a speech truly republican. As this was done to conciliate the republican party, we may fairly conclude that “federalism of tiie Boston, stamp” has run its race, and is no more.—Co lumbian. Ncw-Castle, (Ga.) June 8, 1816. Sir—Your note of to-day by captain Owen H. Kenan is before me. Having acknowledged your innocence of the charges to be infered by ny publication in the Augusta Chronicle of the 29th March last, under the signature of “A Friend to the Army,” and having since been completely undeceived oil the subject of your paying out bills of the banks of Georgetown and Alexandria to an officer under orders for a dis tant post, it remains for me to relieve you from the charge of inconsistency, and to assure you that 1 intended nothing like a challenge in, the conclusion of my publication in tiie same paper under date of the 3d ult. (under the same signa ture) of which you complain. And with the exception of the justification due to myself,.the last publication referred to, was intended as a prompt acknowledgement to the feelings of an injured man, with a sincere desire, that whatever prejudicies might have been excited against you »y the original publication, should be speedily obliterated. You are at ^liberty, sir, to make such use of the above note as will most likely promote the object in view. I am sir, your’s, Ac. * W. Jones.

During the reign of federal Hliberality and proscription, Mr. Haswell was a fellow sufferer with Mr. Adanis,* lately deceased in this town. Peace to their shades! They are now beyond the reach of injustice, and will no longer suffer for the advance of their principles. The aggravated circumstances confinement, (says the Bennineton«paper) 'the sici of himself and family during period of his ini ration, the death of a beloved daughter, while he w mured in jail, and whose sufferings he was not permitted to alleviate by his presence—when even the sad consolation of watching by her side, of anxiously-administering to her relief, and finally of closing her eves in death, were forbidden him, will long be remembered, by his friends and .neighbors. Those who were acquainted with the character of Mr. Haswell know that it will speak its own eulogium. He was buried with masonic honors.—Boston Patriot. |* Mr. Abijali Adams, editor of the Independent Chro-j nicie, who suffered imprisonment for libel in Boston, until sickness reduced him, died on the 18th, aged 62.
