LATEST FROM ENGLAND.
The fwt sailing ship Draper, captain
Adams, arrived at this port yesterday af
ternoon* in 34 day* from Liverpool, with
% foil cargo of good*. To captain Adams,
and Mr. Brough, a panenger, we are in
debted for Liverpool paper* of the 9th
May—right day*later than those received
♦y the Coorier.
W« are indebted to a respectable com
S eroial hoose of this city for the following
tter, the latest brought by the ship.
Liverpool, 9th May, 1818
• «*The great arrivals of grain from the
continent of Europe which have taken
place daring the last two months, and
which still continue to come forward very
largely, have causedta great depression in
thepr ices both of wheat and floor. The
quality of the foreign Wheat has been in
general very good, bet the highest prices
whieh are now to be obtained are from 13s
• 13s 3d per 701b. At these quotation*
there is a pretty fair demand from the in
terior of the country. For flour there is
•scarcely any inqairy. A small lot of su
perior fine Baltimore flour was sold by
auction a few daya ago at 48a 6<1 a 49* 6d
%nd tome further sales have since been
Wfficted at 48 a 50* per barrel. What the
faturc course of the market will be it is
impossible to judge, as much will depend
«n the estentof our supplies, and on the
state of the weather; but it seems scarcely
•probable that prices will go much lower.—
’ The import of American flour into tlii*
port since the 1st January last, has been
about 123,000 barrels, while the sales have
been comparatively trifling: an,I as nearly
as we cln calculate, the present stock in
Liverpool may be estimated at about
111,000 barrels. Five of the week* which
govern the importation of wheat and flt-ur
for the next quarter are elapsed, and the
average of the prices iff wheat during that
time is 86* 7d pur quarter; of course tin-
ports will reman/open till August next.
Our cotton market is very dull. The
arrival* from the United States and the
Jfjst-Iudieshavc been bery extensive, and
there has been a little falling in the manu
facturing and spinning trade during the
last month. Upland cotton may be quot
ed from 20Jd to 21 Jd and some of the late
imports proving of inferior quality, would
Scarcely bring 20d per lb.; good fair cotton
may be bought at 21d. There seems to
be a general opinion, that prices of cotton
will fall gradually as supplies come for
ward, but that the decline will be greater
in the lower than in the better qualities.—
New-Orleans cotton 21 pi a 23d and very
ffno rather higher. Sea islands are dull,
but the former prices, of 3s 5d a Ss 7dare
maintained, and remarkably choice ones
* r fctch something more. Bengal cotton
llpl'g l4d; sugar do l6i a 19.1 per lb.
The whole of the rice imported since the
5th April has been.bonded, as it would be
liable to the dutrof 20s per cwt. for home
•consumption; it is however generally ex
pected that the duty on American rice will
be fixed in the new consolidated act at 10s
per cwt. The uncertainty which has ex
isted respecting the rate of duty has caus
ed many fluctuations in prices, but the
present quotation in bond from S6s a 37s
per cwt. and for home use 41s a 45s the
latter having been imported previously to
•the 5th April, and being free of duty.—
The market! on the continentfor this article
are falling; and owing to this circumstance
and to the large arrival* fromfoe East-In
dies, we think the present price will not
be maintained.
Ashes are unusually dull, and buyers
'“purchase in small quantities, merely to
supply their immediate wants, under an
expectation that we shall shortly ha ve large
arrivals. New-York pots 54? a 56s.—
Montreal do 5Ss a 54s. Pearls 57* per
cwt.
Quercitron bark is quite unsaleable.—
A lot of Virginia tar wa* sold by auction a
few days ago; 600 barrels being remarka
bly good, brought from 16s fid to 21s; the
remainder being rather watery, eold for
17* per barrel. 'Some toft turpentine was
sold at the same time at 19§ per cwt. but
inferior cannot be quoted higher than 17s
American hops were sold last week at 19/
a 19/1 Os per cwt. since which time there
has been a considerable import. If there
should bo a fair gathering in August, ibis
article would not be worth the duty.
Virginia barrel staves were sold this
week at 14/ l Os; and hogsheai do at 17/
15a per M.”
The war in the East-ladies has at length
began on a large scale—the first operation*
of the campaign have been published in
the London Gazette, and apprehensions
are expressed that the contest may prove
tnore serious than was at first expected.
On Tuesday, May 5, sirF. Burdett mo
ved the house for the discharge af a man
«f the name ol Ferguson, who'Sad been
committed to prison for an unconstituti
onal attempt to influence a vote at an
election—the mover thought it unjust that
this delinquent should be so severely pun
ished, when much greater ones passed un
noticed^ and instance* particularly lord
•Castlereagh. tliu lordship replied, that
whenever the Hon. Baronet felt conscious
of having lost grouod in popular opinions,
S alluding, as was supposed, to the Spa
rjfcld meeting,) he always made an at-
tempi to revive it, ej aome attack within
tint house.
It is stated that there are 7000 children
educated in charity schools in Liverpool,
under the patronage of disaenters—those
under the patronage of members of the
church of England, at something lesa than
3000.
In ennseqaence of a dispute betwen
court Month ol on ami general Gongard
at St. Helena, the latter had returned to
Europe. He came passenger in the Cam
den East Jndisman.
The quantity of tin exported from Great
Britain for the last year, ending 5th Ann-
ary. 18.8, amounted to 47, 643 cwt.
'the exportation from Liverpool in
three months, of cotton stuffs, viz. printed
and white -calicoes, dimities, <J'c. was
29,295,000 yard*.
House of commons, lord Castlereagh
moved for an extension of the alien bill for
an additional term of two years. This
bill, as our readers are well’aware, gives
to the secretary of state the power of send
ing out of the kingdom any suspected fo
reigner without legal process.
The motion was opposed by sir Samuel
Romitly and several other members, on
the ground that the present circumstances
of this country and of Europe, were not
such as to warrant the continuation of an
arbitrary power in the hands of the execu
tive, which i* ao liable to abuse. It was
contended, on the side of ministers, that
many of those restless and ardent spirits
bred up in the French revolution, who had
•o often embroiled Europe, had not yet
ceased their baneful activity in every coun
try where the freedom of the laws. and ol
the press afforded scope fop their exer
tions.

BEJCASKS.
Our markets generally have been in a
languid state this week. (
Ashes are very dull of sales at the sub
joined quotations, which ran only be ob
tained for small lots.
Bark is iu improving demand.
Beeswax still scarce.
Clover and Flax seed are in limited re
quest, and generally declining.
In cotton, few sales have been effected
since the commencement of this week.—
Holders of boweds and N. Orleans, are
anxious to realize, and those kinds are a
shade lower than last week. Imports are
beginning to come forward freely.
Tsr and turpentine are steady but de
mand trifling.
For staves or timber there is at present
but little enquiry.
Tobacco supports its prices, but the
sales have recently been trivial.
Late heavy imports ol grain from the
continent, and flour from the United
States have produced an extreme dulness
in our corn markets, and in its present
state, it is almost imposible to effect sales.
The aunexed prices of flour, are quite
nominal. For sweet we doubt if more than
50*. petbrl. could be obtained. Our ports
will certainly remain open after the 15th
inst.
No sales have of late been made in
American hops.
London, May 2.
The letter* from Cadiz, received yester
day, state, that the Russian squadron wa*
expected to sail for South America early 1
in May. ,
Letters have been received from Brazil,
dated the 24th of February. They state
that Artigas enraged at the comments
wade upon him in the Journals of Buenos
Ayres, and apprised that an expedition
had been sent against him, .u*d disembark
ed at Entrerios, had caused the inhabitants
of Monte-Viedo, who he had in prison in
Hervidero, to be beheaded!
Some of his officers bad rebelled against
him, an<; be was iu consequence ebliged
to divide his forces. One of these officeis,
Frcna, had summoned the troops iff Bo ep
os Ayres to his as.-istance, but was defeat-
••d. Samanico, another of hit officers, had
farmed a pai tjr.agsiost him. Portuguese'
troops were also on thnr . march to bring
him to action. _ ,
The suoreme director .of the govam-
ment of Buenos Ayrea, rPuerreydon, was
to send a reinforcement of 500 tnen to n-
aiat Erena. But the director had lost
much of his power, whilst Artigas’ party
in Buenos Ayres, bad been strengthened
by his victory! and it was very much
doabted whether he, (the director) could
any longer maintain ms station, for infor
mation had been received that another
army had been defeated at Talahuane, by
the Royalists, on the 6th of December; and
in consequence' of a general movement of
the Royalist army, the Insurgents were
preparing to evacuate Chili, haring alrea
dy carried seme Emopean families from
that capital to Mendoza.
The new Stock, Bising in the Funds—
The whole amount in the new 3J per cent
stock, is agreed to be subscribed: and ac
cording, to this arrangement, 5 per cent
on the total sum was paid up this day.—
Matters being thus circumstanced, and the
situation of thing* having been fully made
known, the option for the funding the ex
chequer bills rose from 2 per cent to 2 1-2
per cent, and the whole amount of excite
quer bills was funded accordingly. Con
sols and the other stocks rose in the natu
ral proportion and the former sold for the
accountof 81, which is a considerable ad
vance. Amo ’g the causes that have con
tributed to this rise, is the advantageous
view taken of the funds by these house:
which very lately there was a different
prospect, and which sold to a large’ extent.
They have now bought back a great portion
of the stock they somewhat unluckily par
ted with. Money is very abundant; and
we know one emineut stock dealer, who
from the surplus of floating capital, has as
much, this evening, as 100,000/. in the
hands of his bankers.
Little or nothing is doing in the Prussian
loan; the speculators not being perfectly
*ati>fied with the nature of the security,
and tbe prodigious interest allowed is n it
deemed to be a sufficient compensation for
the risk incurred. Some uncertainty is oc
casioned, from the defalcation of tlie gov
ernment of Berliu in regard to a previous
loan.
The prices ol English stocks on Satur
day evening were as follow:—Red ann. 89;
consols 80 7-8 ditto for acconnt 81.

utes he sunk to rise no more, before far
ther assistance could be rendered him.

FROM AUX-CATES.
By the schooner Fair-Play, hrrivetf^J
New-York on Thursday last, in 14 days
from Aux Cayes, information U received
that tbe squadron of admiral Brion, com
modore Aury, etc. were off that place,
supposed to'be makipg preparations to
take possession of St. Domingo. The
Havtian government' continued to make
wai^igainst the insurgent privateers; their
whole squadron was out from Poft-au-
Prince, and had recently sent into Aux-
Cayes a patriot privateer and four prizes
belonging to- her, two brigs and two
schooners-
From the above account, it wonld seefn
that the advices contained in a Kingston,
(Jamaica) paper, received by a late arriv
al st this port, and published in tlie Patri
ot on Friday, were premature. It will be
recollected that it was therein stated, that
Aury had already landed at Satnana, and
proceeded to Palanque bay, a few leagues
from the city of St. Domingo, where he
had established his head quarters.—Balti
more Patriot, \5th inst.
Capt. Tufts, in 13 days from St. Barts,
arrived at New-York on Thursday, com
municates tlie following:—On the 20th ul
timo, the brig St Jago, of St. Jago in Cu
ba. arrived off tlie harbor of St. Barts, from
a slaving voyage, having been taken pos
session of by the crew, who had murdered
the captain, supercargo, and officers, and
carried her into Saba, where she was re
presented as being one of admiral Brion’s
prizes and protected by her own guns —
Uavingjiere disposed d her African cargo,
the next object of the mutineers was to
destroy the vessel; but in this they were
frustrated by a Buenos Ayreaii officer,
who seized it in tlie name of his govern
ment, and ottered his services to the gov
ernor, to assist in securing the crew: who,
however, effected their escape, some to St.,
Thomas,and others to the mountains.
Admiral Brion, who had, contrary to
the orders of the governor of St. Burts,
made a rendezvous of the Five Isles, a
small place umlerthe Swedish jurisdiction,
and about 4 miles from St. Barts, was late
ly chased offby a Spanish squadron of two
ships, two brigs, and two schooners.—ib.
MAJOR GENERAL JACKSON
There has b:en a sort of crocodile lam
entation passing through certain newspa
pers—o:< the supposed ill health and as
serted determination of major general
Jackson, to resign his commission in the
army. We can assure our readers, that
general Jackson was in vigorous health at
the last advices, and that so far from inti
mating a disposition to retire from the ar
my that he has relinquished the disposi
tion to retire which he had expressed
when at Washington—he has indeed ex
pressed a determination to remain lunger
than he originally intended, in consequen
ce of having discovered an infamous intri
gue which lias commenced -with a view to
drive him from the army, in order to make
way for some person who has by intrigue,
puffing, and audacity, sought to press him
self, upon the public, at the expence of
other men; but general Jackson is not to
be treated in such a manner; and has been
fully possessed for seven months past of
foul and dirty artifices to undermine him
and his reputation.—Aurora.
The frigate Guerriere, it appears, has

the president’s return, to take bis depar

National Intelligencer, June 16.
LOSS of the SOLON
New-Yobk, June 14.
The valuable ship Solon, a regular Lon
don trader belonging to this port, was
struck with lightning and set on fire, on
the evening of the 27th of April. On the
following day, at 11 o’clock, and before tlie
flames, which were raging in the hold, had
burst through the deck, foe captain, crew,
and passengers, 38 in number, were most
providentially rescued from their perilous
situation, by the brig Poacher, from Li
verpool. The circumstances of the case,
are more fully detailed in the following
article: »
From the Batin-Daily Advertiser.
Arrived, foe brig Poacher, Malcolm, 65
days from Liverpool, and 34 from Fayal,
with crockery and glassware. April 28th
fell in with the ship Sulon, Stoddard, from
London, for New-York, with hemp, dry
goods, copper, etc. w hich had been struck
with lightning foe evening previous, and
set on fire, in Iat40, 15, Ion. 27, then 20
days out. Took off the passengers, 27 in
number, and crew, amounting in all to 58.
and shortly after the fire burst through the
deck, and we saw the marts go over foe
side. . Tlie following account of the disas
ter, furnished by a passenger, and politely
nauded us from the Exchange Coffee
House, agrees with the minutes made on
the log book, as recorded by Mr. Topliff,
with which we have also been favored:—
On the 27th of April, at 9 o’clock r. u. a
body of lightning struck the ship, attend
ed by a singular explosion, disordered
every thing in its passage down foe iuain-
mast. The captain, with many others on
the upper deck, were at once knocked
down; on the middle of foe deck foe same
effect was produced—yet in either case,
no lives were lost. Immediately columns
of aiuuke rose from the hold through every
aperture; and such was tlie strength or the
devouring matter, that it must, at foe same
instant, hava set fire to every part of the
cargo which was liable to take me from it.
In this emergency, the thickness of the
smoke became such as to present forth--r
respiration. All rushed uu deck iu coulu-
sitm—foe lightning still bursting forth, n
that the whole sea appeared like a furnace.
Here was oue of the most distressing
scenes that ever wa* witnessed—foe most
part of foe people half naked, and it bring
impracticable to retom for their clothes,
and with no more of foe necessaries of life
than wonld be required lor about two days
subsistence. All that now remained to our
hopes, was to keep foe lire ender by
blocking up every apertuie where fho
■moke issued—wind should this be effected,
we were fearful a few hours might close
the scene. The boata could not take two
thirds our number, and the tremendous
sea also forbid foe trial—the hope of fall
ing in with a vessel was precarious, yet
foe hand of a gracious Providence was
over our bead*. In this state we continu
ed till next day about eleven o'clock,
when tlie brig Poacher, captain Malcolm,
appeared in sight, and ultimately saved
our lives. The last boat had scarce reach
ed the brig when the Solan's mizen mast
fell by the board, and foe mainmast fol
lowed in about half an hour after. At this
time foe flames had burst out in every di
rection, so that Providence had sent this
vessel to our aid in a most critical mo- i
ment. So great a number of persolls be-'
ing added to those already on board foe
Poacher, she having before seven passen
gers, it became necessary to make for the
Western Islands for water and provisions.-
We arrived at Fayal on tbe 1st of May,
where every attention was paid to our
wants by Mr. Dabney, foe American con
sul, and other persons, particularly Messrs
Scarle, Parker, Bayley and Correa,”
Three of the Solon’* passengers here
went ou board the ship Norfolk, for Lon
don; seven of tlie passengers and crew on
board the schooner Prudence, Legett, for
Halifax, and the remainder have arrived at
this port in the Poacher. The persons it
who have arrived here express the warmest ”
_ atitude for the attention of captain Mal
colm. and *>f the officers,.passengers and
crew of tlie Poacher.
Since the above was in type, we have
been favored by Messrs- Fish ft Grinncl,
