We have an account from Antwerp which mentions a lingular accident that occurred in the Scheldt on Saturday Jaft.’ The Philadelphia, capt. Cooper, of 450 tons, of and from Philadelphia, was run aground, either through the negligence or ftupknty of the pilot, near Braz, and the greatefl part of the cargo Joft. As it hap pened in a place where the sand bank is known to all filh ernien, and even children, it being particularly marked, and as the accident occurred at 5 o’clock in the afternoon, with a fair wind, we are full of conjectures that it was done wilfully, and think that the pilot was bribed in order to circulate an idea that our river is infective, and even dangerous. The pilot made his escape with the captain’s consent, otherwise it. is more than likely that he would have been killed by the enraged populace. The flop was laden with colonial and East India.produce* A finall part of it has been brought up by two of the lighters, but the rest is ir recoverable. July 27.

Edinburgh , June 10. The Aberdeen Journal of yeflerday, received this day, contains the following ac count. “ On Friday last the anniversary of his majesty’s birtli ft ay was oblferved in this city v/ith the usual marks of jo*,. At 12 three vollies were fired by the Ross and Cromarty rangers in the barrack yard, and the vonng men of the different incorporations made a procefTion through the town, with their colors and the insignia of their different trades, and made a very I hewy appearance. At 6 o’clock the tnagiftrates and principal inhabitants a lie m bled in the town hall, where the usual healths, and other appropriate toasts, were drank, followed by repeated vollies of mufketrv by a detachment of the military drawn up on the plainftones. ‘ k I bus far the day was (pent with that feftivity which has long distinguished the‘.nhai/wnts of this loyal city. 1 But it now becomes our painful duty to relate the melan* ! choly events of the evening, which led to conffequences that we can never fufftcieijtly deplore. An unfortunate affray took place between the boys in the street and fome of the ofneers and privates of the Ross and Cromarty rang ers, theh on guard in Cattle street, who, being joined by the rest of the corps from the barracks, ran upon the people in the street with their arms in their hands, and began iir ing upon them with ball, indil’criminately, and in every direction, and iome were even seen taking deliberate aim at individuals. 4 ‘ Many of the bullets Went through windows and doors j in the wt-tt end f Cattle street, and in the head of the Ship • row and Narrow wynd, and others were found at a great ciil twice through the town. “ As far as we can learn the following were the fatal confequenc.es that enftied: One man, a native of this place, and a private in the ritie corps recruiting here, who was attending at the corner of the plainftones, was fhotthrough ! the head, and instantly died on die spot; Thomas Milne, a mason, John Moir, a young boy, and only lbn of r j widow, and William Gibb, apprentice to a barber, were { all mortally wounded, and died next day; and ten more j persons, as near a$ we Can learn, were vaivutty wounded. ; Upon being informed of the unhappy affair the provoftand nwgiftrates with becoming spirit instantly interfered, and ! the whpU corps were ordered into the barracks. A I’ufri cient guard of armed citizens was immediately mounted, . to prevent all communication with the regiment, which, in the irritated state of the public mind, might have led to further fatal mi Tournees. ! Anlnvdligation of tins lamentable affair wa> instantly j fit on loot by the magistrates, and is now going on, but oi the utils of svideuce, brought forward it won Id be highly j improper In us to take particular notice. Several of the : olhcers, also four llrjeams and one private, are in custody, | to abide the result of the jnveftigation. j C£ On Saturday, at 12 o’clock, an exp refs was sent off to Edinburgh to the comtnander in chief; the penon who carried ir, with an alacrity which did him much credit, re turned by 3 o'clock on Monday morning with the neceffaiy orders, and yeflerday morning, about 1 o’clock, the regi- I ment marched out of town in dead ftlence, and without beat of drum, by the way of the Broad hill and Old Town links, on their route northwards; at the bridge of the Don they formed into two divillons, one of which look the road to Old Meld rum, and the other the road to Ellon.’’ Greenock, July 6. At the Jaft eledlion a farmer’s wife Was applied to by the Friends of a candidate to solicit her husband for his vote and interest, at the fame time dropping fometlflng for anew ribbon* The woman flew in a rage, returned the prelent, and vowed her hufbar. fliouid never be bribed with her confect. The officious friends were for fome time at a loss how to prpceed, but at last thought of prelent;rig a lottery ticket for dame’s acceptance, and (hares for her children.

WE have been favored with the following extracl of a letter from a gentleman at Guadeloupe, late of this place, on whole veracity we have the molt implicit re liance. Extract of a letter from a gentleman in Guadeloupe, ijl July, 1802. “ I dined at Bafieterre yeflerday, and as the fttuation of that island makes l'uch a tioife at present perhaps the follow ing particulars, which may be depended on, will be ac ceptable. “ Two ftiips of the line, 74’s, and five frigates, arrived from France, with about 3500 troops on board, part of thofewho were at the battle of Marengo, with five gener als. “ Loft since their arrival, in engagements with the ne groes, and through sickness at Point Petre, two generals and 600 men. “ Inhabitants killed by the blacks from Fort Matilda, 100 to 110. “ Negro rebels killed and blown up, 3000; executed, 500.

In tiie night, however, he found that the laid fliip liad dogged him, and was dole on board. He was hailed from her immediately, but their iariguage was unintelligible. He answered he was from New York, bound to ‘New Provi dence. Capt. Johnson perceived, by lome movements on board the (hip, that file meant to fire into him; which they did several times, so as to damage his fails'and rigging. He made an appearance of furfendering his vefiel, and hoified out his boat, and sent her off towards the (hip; but, in the mean time, having repaired his rigging, he took ad vantage of fome confulion on board of the, ftiip, and made fail, having firft taken i\ the people from the boat. From superior failing, and the darknds of the night, capt. John son escaped. The privateer is a black looking fliip, with tight ports of a fide. This day the high court of vice admiralty, called for the purpole of trying sundry persons charged with piracy, vvab held agreeable to adjournment. James Ward and * M‘Evoy were found guilty, and lentence of death palled on them. BOSTON, September 6. THE iusability of the weather for a week or ten days pall has been extremely unfavorable to the health of our citizens, particularly to children. No contagious sickness, liowever, Is prevalent among us; and we have reason to believe that, from the peculiarity of our situati on, and other causes favorable to the health of men, we we shall never be aiflidled with those malignant levers which have unhappily prevailed in moft of our southern seaport tow ns. Baltimore, September 7. Dominic Loris, a Spaniard, convi&ed of murdering mr. Jones, was this day executed, at 12 o’clock, in the prison yard.

Seaman and the children it was supposed that mr. Seaman, after fliutticj up the house and fattening the doors, proceeded to butcher his wife and children. An axe was found in the room, which it is possible was the inftrunient he used to execute the horrid butchery, as the marks of the axe were plainly difeovered on her forehead, the icull being da(hed to pieces and a pillow was found lying under her head. The chil dren, it is supposed, white this was traniacling, had fled upflairs, where they were pursued and mafl'acretl by their inhuman father, in a manner too (hocking to relate. After these wicked and barbarous proceedings he fmifhed the hor rid catattrophe by blowing out his own brains, liis head be ing ahnoft entirely (hot from his body, and his brains feat tert.d over the room. r i he following morning, the house being (hut longer than usual, the neighbors got a ladder, and difeovered the Children in the upper room lying dead, and the floor stained with blood. A magillrate was sent for, and the house broke open. A jury of inqtieft was called, bit* we have not heard thk verdid. It is conjecl med he was deranged, as it was laid that he had for fome time pad exhibited symptoms of insanity. He was in easy circumstances, and his father resides in New York. September 24.
