By the arrival last evening t)f the ship Courier, captain Prince, from Liverpool, we have received Liverpool pa pers to the 19th ult and Loridon to the 17th. U»«l Exmouth’s squadron kt/t preparing to sail im mediately for tl»e Mediterranean, with ail accession ofse- <Cnl additional heavy ships and bomb vessels. Marine- -artillery, and a company of rocket corps, wferi to attenu the expedition. The fleet will include seven sail of th *Rne, and it was said that the Dutch fleet were to co operate with it Orders have bee.ii given for the siiips to 'receive iron cables, and to have bits fore and aft for fastening spr ngs, in case it should be necessary to ue broadside to the enemy’s batteries. Several of the ships had already left Portsmouth harbor. A telegraphic dispatch from St. Main, (says the Cou nter of July 16) announces, that the English are deter mined to send an expedition to destroy the town and go vernment of Algiers, which refuses to listen to any terms: , -The British funds had advanced one per cent. The duke of Wellington was still in England. The ■object of his visit, had'not been announced, but it was re ported at Paris that lie was the bearer of a treaty signed by Louis IS, on the 27th of June. It was asserted tuat his absence from P»ris was not to last more than fifteen “iJavs. Intelligence had reached England of the renewal of the Nepau| war, but their advices from India w ere still not •o late as our*s by near a month.

Many of the dykes were overflowed, and vast tracts of land were under water. The crops were entirely destroyed. The pirates, according to an article from Naples, have 'already felt the vengeance of the Christian arm. A Nea politan ship of the line and two frigates, are said to have had an encounter with a squadron of pirates, w hich they "defeated completely. A Barbarian corsair has been sunk before Marietta. Mr. Gallatin, our minister to France, arrived at Paris, -July 12. It was rumored that an exchange of ratifica tions df a treaty of commerce between the United States -and Russia was to be made at Paris. Lovdon, July 15. Rear admiral Milne, who is to supercede admiral Grif fiths at Halifax, goes in the fil-st instance with lord Ex- ■inouth to the Mediterranean, and from thence will pro- ■•ceed to Nova-Scotia. July 17. The Moniteur contains a despatch from the British vice-consul -at Trepani, in Sicily, to the vice-consul at Pa lermo, giving an account of the massacre of the English at Bona. The reason given by the Barbarians was, that the dey of Algiers had declared war against the English, on account of a demand made by lord Exmoulh to burn the Algerine fleet. We are happy to hear that several vessels have landed in the gulph of Macedonia persons who escaped from the massacre, both of Algiers and Tu nis. It seems strange, however, that the flag of France should be respected by these pirates. A French ship from Cyprus was chased by a Barbary frigate, till the latter perceived she had the white flag hoisted, when she hauled her wind and stood away. The French funds are rather lower, 10 J. We suppose lord Exmouth will sail about the .end of the month. The Dutch it is said, also the Neapolitan squadron, will co-operate with our’s. The former was at Gibraltar on the I7th of last month, having just returned from Al giers. It lay for several days in the Bay of Algiers, re- connoitering the fortress, and endeavoring to induce some Algerine ships to come out from under their bat teries to fight him. A tremenduous fire was opened up on them, and kept up for two days, with out doing the least injury, although a vast number of shells went over his ships. Some of the boats were manned to cut out during the night an Algerine brig, when about forty or fifty gun-boats armed with long thirty-six and forty-two pounders, filled out the harbor, came to her protection, and exhausted all their ammunition in the wildest man ner, without occasioning to the Dutch any loss whatso ever. • The admiral, we learn, has since |been reinforced at Gibraltar, by the Amstel, a fine frigate, and is w aiting for the arrival of two line of battle slaps and a frigate from Holland. Our private correspondence mentions some circum stances which come in aid of the speculation we hazard ed a few days ago, that Turkey would not view the de struction of the power of these Barbarians with satisfac tion. The Turkish agents at Paris endeavor to paliate their conduct. The Algerines have not suffered any in telligence to be despatched from Algiers since the 23d of May. This is to conceal the real state of affairs. Paris, Jfily 6. Many English of distinction continue to arrive at Pa lis. A great number take apartments in Paris, or coun try houses for the whole of the fine season. After the peace of Amiens, the English came to visit the capital and our provinces, but only with distrust and under the in fluence of a powerful curiosity. They now come to study our manners, our customs, our language, our ur banity and our arts, and do so like good neighbors, sin cerely reconciled. The accounts from the southern departments announce, that new rye is already in the market; the vineyards are superb, the blossoms have experienced no check, and the vintage will be most abundant. The silk-worm harvest has been very good: the p- ds have been sold at forty- two francs the pound, and the mulberry leaves twenty- six francs-the quintal. Parts, July 13. Notwithstanding the cry throughout F.urop* which the late atrocities of the Algeruies have excited against them and of which your journal has been the eloquent inter preter, there are not wanting individuals here, connect ed with the Turkish diplomacy, who obtrude on the pub lic a palliative statement in their behalf. Friendly to 1 submit a resume to the Courier • the claims the barbary powers have m parti: Vfter £3 :ivy they have so essentially After exaggerating the cla Oil Great Britain, whose na supplied with whatever it stood in need during many cri tical and protracted wars (aud never more signally than during the late one) they advance that lord Exmouth, on his first cruise to Algiers, expressly authorised their odious commerce of Christian slaves, by purchasing with all the requisite solemnities the Sardinians at a price agreed on. That on his re-appearance some time after, he assumecfa tone of hostility and menace, demanded the liberty of the Neapolitans unransomed, and the entire abolition of their antique commerce. The dey protest ed he could not, without consulting the grand Seignor agree to terms so injurious to their united interests, and requested time for that mission. The British admiral, they pretended, replied that if in twenty four hours a fa- voraole answer was not received, the town should be bombarded. The dey having deliberated with his coun cil, and their advice being unanimous, expected the at tack on the town, and considered the two countries as in a state of war—It was in this interim the dey issued an order to secure the persons of those employed in the fisheries at Bona, to the execution of which' opposition being made, blood was spilt on both sides. Shortly af ter lord Exmouth, contrary to the expectation of the authoritiesat Algiers, renewed negociations, and a cer tain number of Neapolitans were actually leberated, though at a higher taritt’ than had been set on the Sardi nians before. A counter order was now despatched to Bona, but arrived unfortunately' too late. Lord Ex- after Stipulating certain conditions, had quitted Algkft- before the news of the carnage reached that tow*, tf Ait to-the present expedition, they do not seem to at tach ail adequate importance to it. So long aware of it, they have had time to remove into the interior their most valuable effects; thus the bombardment and pillage of the town will not repay the expense of the preparations, it is loudly claimed that the Turks themselves would ~ vizvr with a jealous eye any inroad in the interior, and that vie precipitate or indiscreet measure, would suffice to ee-kirtdle a!|4he reKgiOur%ry an army of Christians tever failed to exbite in those iaflatic Countries.

Some time ago we mentioned the prophecy of an astrono mer at Bolongna, wh; fixed the end of tne world for the 19th of July,and whom the government prudently arrested. We mentioned tins prophecy only to show the absurdity of it, but instead"of tins, old women have t.ken alarm; the prediction is how a general subject of conversation. At Courtrayq and in many communes of Flanders, s. t ys the Journal of (juent, fear wnich never reasons, drives into the Churches a crowd of good women, who come to prepare tnemselves against this dreadful catastrophy. A dozen times m a century these miserable predictions are repeated, winch, .though always satisfied, alway's finds dupes; and tins will be die same for some thousand years to come, because there will always be prophets and fools. One thing ought to comfort these good peo ple, that is the end of the world is to be announced by Artichrist, and there are yet no accounts of his appear ance. The post from Germany has not arrived for these two days, which is probably owing to the inundations aud the dreadful weather. Guest, July 4. Yesterday afternoon, the air being cold a terrible tem pest arose here. The thunder and lightn.ng were fol lowed by heavy rain, and a quantity of hail as large as a hazel nut.

Italy has been hitherto without any road of communi cation with Switzerland, our commerce with which is however very great. The generosity of our sovereign is now going to bestow on us the important benefit of a commercial road, and his majesty has assigned a very considerable sum trom the royal treasury for that pur pose. This new road will begin from Varese, and extend to the bridge over the river Iresa, where the Swiss territory begins. Its length will be 25,374 metres.

THE DEY OF ALGIERS— Force of the Algerines. L.ovnox, July 8. The dey of Algiers is said to be a man of good under standing, grave and deliberate in council, and of quick penetration. He was uga, or general of the array, be fore his elevation. Whilst our ships were endeavoring to work up to tiie batteries, lie was day and uight at his post, examining his defences; he was ’ found upon the shore by the officer who went to demand the council.— He had only reigned a year. His immediate predecessor governed but a few months, when he was strangled, be ing, as he was told in councd to consider, himself only a locum tenons until a better person could tie choseji; the custom of the country forbade that he should live, for no one, having once filled tiie office, can revert to fab former station aSa subject; and no age, former qualifica tions, or past services, caa release Huff from the cruel penalty of this barbarous custom—nor can he refuse to serve when chosen. In fact, the Janissaries, (Turkish troops) are the governors of die country; they, destroy by tiie edge of the scimitar, all those acts of the dey and divan that are opposed to their barbarous prejudices and cruel feelings. The present force of these lawless despots at Algiers, is computed at about 15,000 men.— They hold the Moors, (the natives of the country) in complete .subjection; but the Jewsstill'more so—Whilst our squadron lay there, three Jews were bumf to death, because they were insolvent; but before they had half ex ecuted their cruelty, it was discovered that one of them was innocent of the ^Hedged, crime. Algiers has all the appearance of a well fortified town; it is defended by about 1000 pieces of ordinance, of every calibre—three hundred of winch are brass. ’ The place is surrounded by a high wail, the southern side of which is adorned with men’s heads—trophies of their cruelty'. Thehouses are built remarkably dose to each other. The country is veiy productive, producing gen, erally two crops in a year.

Los mix, July 14. Advices have reached town from Cape Coast Castle to the 22d of April last. For some time previous to that date, considerable alarm had been excited in the Fantee country, inhabiting the sea-coast, and among the iiriusu residents at the several settlements, at tile hostue appear ance of the Asliantee army, which had encamped at the back of Accra, and being determined on coming imo the Fantee country for the purpose, as the leader stated, of possessing himself of the persons of Quow, Saffa iuu - cu ie, Cudjcs, Coomah and Coffee, Ashantee-men, whose con duct had given much offence to the king of Asliantee.— The Asliantee forces, amounting to upwards of twenty thousand men, w ere met by the people of Adjumoucooa and Agoonah, who, after lighting bravely', were entirely routed, with the loss of many killed and several made prisoners. The Ashantees had also many killed. The Fantees, on learning the approach of the Ashantees, as sembled in great numbers, to give them battle; but their resolution failed them, and they were happy to save them selves by flight. Men, women and children, fled in crowds to Cape Coast Castie for shelter; and abou the 14th, the Ashantees still continuing to proceed towards the coast, messengers were sent by the governor in chief of the British settlements, to the captain to inquire the cause of his approach. The answer returned was to the purport, that lie was determined to pursue Quow, Saffaroutchie, Cudjce, Coomah and Coffee^ Ashantee-men, to whatever place they might retreat; in fact, tiiat should they tnrow themselves into the sea, bury themselves in the earth, or secret themselves in a rock, thither would he follow them. On a conference being obtained, the captain of the Ashantee army was assured that the men he was in quest of, were not in Cape Town. Being satisfied on this point, the captain had nothing further to require than that certain persons fie should name, acquainted with the refugees and the manner of their escape, might attend him in search for tiie runaways. After some prelimina ries were agreed to, the persons accompanied tiie cap tain. Up to the 2lst of August, the refugees had not been found: bui though the people of Cape Coast Town and the Fantees had been so fortunate as to make their peace With the Ashantees, by payiug to them one hun dred ounces or gold, anil reciprocal oaths of friendship were the consequence, the army winch was then in camp would immediately' proceed m quest of the proscribed men. Bostok, August 27. The amout of the national debt.of England, purchased by the commissioners of tiie sinking final sinc e its estab lishment, is 3o8,3u9,009/. and the interest is 9,390,090, which is appropriated to tiie further purchase of stock.
