.1 1 % LORD BYRON—The Poet. The following 1 affecting address is from the pen of lord Byron. The reader need scarcely be informed that lady Bvron, the beautiful and accomplished daughter of ad miral sir Ralph Milbanke, has lately left his lordship’s house and returned to her father, taking with her an in fant child after being little more than a year married. FARE THEE WELL. Fare thee well! and if for ever— Still for ever, fare thee -well— Even though unforgiving, never ’Gainst thee shall my heart rebel. * HVouldthat breast were bared before thee Where thy head so oft hath lain, While that placid sleep came o’er thee Which thou ne’er can’st know again; Would that breast by thee glanced over, Every inmost thought could shew? Then thou would’tat last discover ’Twas not well to spurn it so— Though the world for this commend thee— Though it smile upon the blow, Even its praises must offend thee, Founded on another’s woe— Though rfiy many faults def ied me; Gould no other arm be found Than the one which once embraced me To inflict a cureless wound? ftp; diately oh boartl with his family and effect*. to come omne- •‘Commodore Shaw considering it the best plan to d*rdo take displace All keep these barbarians inf awn, ins;antly commenced pre parations to give ■them a drubbing.

The evening of our expedition arrived—all anxious for the mo ment which was again to encircle the brow of Columbia with another wreath of laurels—but while below, reflecting on my beloved home, I was surprised, in the midst of my reverie, by the information that the dey, discovering our intentions, had sent off at flag of truce, stating, that it was not only entirely contrary to his. wishes to make war with the Americans, but that he ever was proud of their friendship. “We have since understood that his reason, for acting in such a hostile manner, related to the capture of the brig Noba, the particulars‘of which I have not time to give.

Tare thee well!—thus disunited— Tom from every nearer tie— Seawsd in heart—and lone—and blighted— More than this, I scarce can die. FROM THE MEDITERRANEAN. Captain Shearman* of the brig Calypso, arrived at this port in thirty-five days from Gibraltar, considers the American commerce in the Mediterranean, in a very pre carious situation. The Algerines are still restive, and have only agreed with commodore Shaw, to observe the treaty with the United States for three months. If a fleet is not sent to the Mediterranean sufficient to attack Al giers, and compel them to keep the peace, there will be more of our citizens in slavery there before fall. Small vessels are of great importance in those seas, f if ordered to cruise in summer, instead of lying' in portj for our large ships can watch the movements of their large ships, but not of their small craft.

The superior board of health having received infor mation from various quarters of the want of uniformity with which vessels from the United States are treated in different ports of this nation, and with a view of establish ing in so important a matter an equal system to be ob served in conformity with anterior regulations on this subject, have resolved, that vessels leaving the United States from the 1st of June to the end of September, though the place they come from be proved to be in a healthy state, do observe a quarantine of eight days, re maining, mider similar circumstances, free of these res trictions Sir the rest of the year; taking notice, however,, that it is likewise ordered, that all vessels from said ports are always to have a bill of health with them, duly certi fied by the consuls for his majesty in the aforesaid states.

Last evening arrived at this port, the Unitaft States’ corvette John Adams, captain Trenchard, fro^F Algiers. The John Adaifis sailed from Algiers on the 17th of May, in company with Hie United States’ squadron un der the command of commodore Shaw, the whole of which were bound on a cruize, except the sloop of war Ontario, which sailed for Marseilles. We are informed that a. serious misunderstanding had arisen between the Dey of Algiers and the Americans, from what particular causes vve have not been able to learn; but understand that the delay of the restoration of the brig of war, driven ashore by commodore I&ca- tur, and seized by the Spaniards, was one of the causes; and that the Dey was about to send out his fleet to cruise against the Americans in violation of the late treaty of peace. Commodore Shaw, apprised of the hostile intentions of the Dey, proceeded with the whole squadron in the Me diterranean to the port of Algiers; and being well pro vided with fire ships, &c. threatened immediate destruc tion to his majesty’s fleet, as well as iiis capital. Mr. Shaler, the American consul, had previously repaired on board our fleet. This sudden and unexpected appear ance of the squadron caused great contusion and fear; the pey, with his household, fled to one of the forks, and when the work of destruction was about to com mence, he sent out a flag of truce to commodore Shaw, •with assurances that he would adhere to the late treaty, and invited Air. Shaler to return and resume his func tions, which was agreed to* for the present. The American consul at Gibraltar had given public notice that American vessels might again ‘ puss up and down the Mediterranean without danger of molestation by the Algerines. Mr. Murray, who came passenger in her, has despatches from commodore Shaw, containing the particulars of the above affair with the Dey. The following is an extract of a letter from an officer on board the American frigate Constellation, dated Bay of Algiers, May 14: “I wrote you i.-st from Mahon; at present we are at anchor in the Bay of Algiers, where we arrived the 2d of this month, and came to among a squadron of 17 sail of British ships, under command of Admiral Pelew (lord Exmouth) who, it is much to be regretted, on the score of humanity, did not succeed in his demand for all Christian prisoners; but, on the contrary, received only one thousand, for which he pays from 500 to glOOO per head. This, 'in our opinion, is a pitiful arrangement. I think we couid have done better with our little squad ron; however, as the old maxim 9ays, “what is one man’s loss is another’s gain,” for it will only make our bright stars shine with more brilliant lustre in the eyes of the world—and I can asOT^e you, those stripes, which have so wayed victoriously, still continue to strike terror into the hfeartsof.our savage enemy. \t the departure of the British fleet the Dey, without •Hedging any cause, began to show such signs of hosti_ upon the throne. Adieu! my friends, my children! Adieu!” She ceased to breathe.” As her royal highness the princess Charlotte descend ed the stairs yesterday from Buckingham house, previous to the marriage ceremony, the princess Mary was bath ed in tears. The princess Charlotte, cpi the contrary, though rather palid, held up her head with princely dig nity. ft may be remarked, as a curious convenience, that it was on the 2d of May on which William of Orange, the the fatiier of William III king of England, was married to Henrietta Maria, the daughter of Charles I. Extract-of a detter from Paris. “A new marriage is already on foot for the emperor of Austria. This uxorious monarch is said to have cast his eye oh the fair daughter of the king of Saxony, to replace his late consort” A letter from Paris, dated April 26, 1816, says, “Goods have risen here within three days seven and a half per cent, and will rise more, as the Russian government have pcrmjUeu the importation of French manufac tures.' We lay before our readers the following extracts of letters from France, and which have been politely hand ed us. A Paris newspaper, to-day, is merely a calendar of the king’s gout, and the royal princess of Angou- leme’s virtues. It gives no intelligence, whatever, which can be reliedton, and it is only from private letters that we can judge of the state of affairs in France and in Eu rope.—-Ai'ational Advocate.

To support their pretensions in Germany, the English cannot but evacuate Fiance, and they must make haste; me event—and they wiU be but a breakfast for French men. % » The Orange party in France and Germany is no longer a mystery. It is supposed England will send the duke of Orleans to France, who was very popular last year. If he came from any where' else, he might neutralise the Or ange party, if you can call that a party which is composed of all the republicans, ’ all the constitutionalists, and all the Bonapai-tists—rin a word, of all France (excepting the old nobles, valets affa. priests.) France perceives that the house of Orange, at this day, offers her the only means of ridding herself of its present tyrants, and restor ing any thing like vigor or health. If this great and glorious change takes place, it will immortalise tile emperor of Russia. * His sister, die pre sent princess royal of the Netherlands, is both able and amiable. She has inherited the mind of a Catharine, and is a great man in the frame of a woman.

It was not to have been expected, that an establishment so per nicious to Hie southern states, holding out to a part o; their population temptations to insubordination, wouk have been suffered to exist after the close of the war. k the course of last winter several slaves from this neigh borhood fled to that 'fort; others have lately gone fmS Tennessee and the Mississippi territory.
