it for a cargo, and return to the coast, aud
to load the vessel with slaves ; but their

are so eager to pursue.

that, if the project- he advantageous to

Extract of h letter t'rom the t.'upe de Veril l«l

t* The Slave Trade, which has been
carried on to such an alarming extent
the last year, has received an important
cli •< k by the arrival of the U. States'
ship of war Cvane, capt. Trenchard, ou
this station, who entirely cleared the
coast of every slaver on the 17th ultimo.
Though he had the good fortune to cap
ture a great number of slave vessels, yet,
n« they were so completely covered w ith
Spanish papers, lie, though reluctantly,
after taking out the Americans, manne,d
four prizes, which he ordered to Nevv-
York.
England has been endeavoring, with
redoubled energy to suppress the horri
ble tratlic in slaves the last year ; and.
although her squadron have rendered
great service in the cause of humanity,
yet nothing has had such an eflett on the
shivers, as the arrival of a single Ame
rican ship of War !
It is a fact too notorious, that scarce a
vessel proceeds to the coast far slaves
but what is wholly or in part owned in
America. Capt. ,H. Leeke, commander
of 11. B. M. ship of war Myrmidon, sold
at this place thr other day a large elegant,
schi. which be had previously captured,
and which had been condemned at Sier
ra Leone, for illicit trade in slaves, for
merly the property of .John Dooley, of
Uristol, who had another schooner con
demned a few months since, engaged in
the same tratlic. The brig Rambler.
Churchhill ; Jacquemel Packet, Tyior,
late Lawton, 4; , Sawyer, all from
Bristol, who were reported to have been
captured, have succeeded in getting off
with their cargoes. Robert t\ Green,
of Providence, lute commander of the
«chr Lisboa, alias -, captured in the
act of embarking slaves, waiting an op
portunity to ship them to Havana, or to
hav e a vessel sent oat for them.
The manner iu which most of the sla
vers carry on the trade is this :—they
sail Irotu the Laired States to some port
in Cuba, with a cargo of blue and white
cottons, India checks, nankin, powder,
tobacco, kc. where they make a sham
sale of the vessel for the purpose of
procuring a set of Spanish papers, and
the officers make oath that-the cargo, en
titled to debenture has been landed, and
procure, the requisite certificate#, when
every article remains untouched on hoard
1 hey then take on hoard a Spaniard, who
passes for the captain, but perhaps bis
first voyage to sea; hoist the Spanish
flag, and proceed to the coast of Africa,
north of the line, keeping three log books,
two in Spanish, one true and the other
false, and oue ip English ; on arrival
the supercargo lands with the goods, un-
vler cover of the guns of the vessel, on
the beach, in buts erected for the pur
pose, 6l sends circulars to all the neigh
boring kings, acquaints them of his arri
val, and that be ha- a-handsome assort
ment of goods, whicn he wishes to dis
pose of for slaves in a given number of,
days. They immediately fiock to bis
depot with their slaves, winch they ex
change for goods at the rate of loo bars
per head ; in the mean time the vessel
is preparing rice, wood, and water, and
when the slaves are collected they are
all embarked in one day, and the same
night the vessel puts to sea. and, if not
enptored during the first night, general
ly succeeds in getting off. Their next
plan is to arrange the log book to be pro
ceed in Cuba, which must shew that
the slams were shippedsouth of the line
sind the vessel with her cargo is then ad
mitted to entry. When overhauled bv
Abe English or Patriot privateers, they
exhibit American papers ; and when bv
the American^, Spanish papers; by which
means many escape capture and condem
nation.
When Captain Trenchard left the
coast,the rains set in, and about half the
Cynoe’a crew were seized with the Af
rican fever, few of which died ; but, since
her arrival here, they have recovered
fearing that three-fourths of thus.- already
on the island will not survive the pre
sent season. Bulant, situated at the
mouth of the Rio Grande, is a fertile
healthy island, with good harbors, and
its local situation far trade the best o|
any unoccupied on the coast, and will
destroy the slave trade carried on by the
Portuguese up the mer ; and no one
Heel ire* it unhealthy far this part of Af
rica, except the English—who would be
jealous of a rival neighbor.
A Moor, who has arrived at the Cam-
bia, from Toiuburtoo. reports that Dr,
Dorket, who was attached to the expe
dition to explore the interior of Africa,
but who was disgusted at the tardy ope
rations of Major Gray, and left the expe
dition with about 20 followers, had ar
rived at Tombuctoo, where they were
all sei/.ed, stript, and held as slave*.

I.ATE AND IMPORT \NT PROM ENGLAND
AND TtlE CONTINENT.
By tho fast sailing ship .Martha, Captain
Skbtchcet, which arrived hwt night in chi
days from Liverpool, the Editors of ihe
Commercial Advertiser, have received Liver
pool papers to tlie lath of June, and London
papers and Lloyd’s Commercial Ship
ping Lists to the 13th inclusive. Our pre
vious advices, vviihttu* exrpetion of a few
paragraphs received via Halifax, were only
to the ioth of May. These p.-qvers contain
considerable information of interest from the
continent ; particularly from France.
England lias been thrown into great fe.r-
inent and agitation by the sudden arrival of
tho Colleen. It will be seen by the subse
quent column, that soon after her majesty , ^
reached Loudon, she communicated an in’- I state i>f universal pence ar.d rrpnst>. We are
Queen thirnA jt necessary to inform
the House of ('ominquvth.it she has'bcpn
induced to rcturnjto England, in conse
quence ol tfig measures pursued against her
uonor ond peace for s.uqp time hv sec e
agents abroad, and lately au.iclioic il by the
conduct of ^the government it home. In
adopting tins course, her majesty has had ti •
other purpose whatsoever but thr defence of
her character, and vhe inaintamance of thosi
just rights which have devolved upon her by
the death of tint reverend Monarch, in
whose high honor ami unshaken affection
she had always found her surest support.—
Upon her arriv al, the Quern is surprized to
ll.nl that a message Ins been tent down to
Parliament requiring it* attention to written
documents; and she learnt with still grcatei
astonishment, that them is an intention of
proposing tint those should bo referred to n
select committee. It is this day t J years
since the fir't charges were brought for
ward ag-ii;ot i.rr majesty. Then, and upon
every occasion during that long period
has show n the utmost r* adine-s to .net t her
accusers, and to court the fullest inquiry in
to her conduct. Bhe now also desires an
open iuvv.-tir ition, in which she may see
both the charges bo<1 the witnesses against
her—a privilege not denii d to the meanest
subject of the realm. In the face of the so
vereign, the Parliament, and the Country,
- he solemnly protested against the formati
on of a secret tribunal to examine ifacu-
.uents, privately pr« pared by her adversa
ries, and a proceeding unknown to the law
• the land, and a flagrant violation of all the
principles of justice. She relics with full
confidence upon the integrity of the house of
. otnnjon4for defeating tne only .utempt she
‘ns any reason to fear. The Queen caruwt
forbear to add, that eve before any pro
ceedings were resolved upon, she had been
t-rated in a manner loo well calru’.: t'ri to
p ejudicc her rase. T e omission of her
• lame in the Liturgy, the withholding tin
•leans of convey,met usually fbi-d/d to all
the branches of the royal family, the refusal
even of an answer to her application for a
place of residence in tin rnvai mansions, and
the studied slight, l> ith oftjngl’nsh r> i.e-trrs
abroad, and ofthe ng. els of all foreign pow-
over whom the English Governtneri had
any influence—must lie viewed as measures
designed to prejudice the world again-t her ;
i: d could have only been justified by trial
anil conviction.”
On the nth, the following mess.-ige was
received in both houses of patliameuL
“ GEORGE H.
“ The King thinks it nenssan-, in ronsc-
|uence of tho arrival of the Queen, to com
municate to the house of lords certain pa
pers respecting tin; conduct of In r m.ijestv
«incc her departure from this Kingdom,
jvhich lie recommends to the immediate
and serious consideration of the house.
“ Tlie King has felt the most anxious de
sire to aveit the necessity of any disclosure
and discussions which must lie as painful to
his people, as they can he to himself; hut
the step now taken by the Queen It aves him
no alternative.
‘•The Ring has the fullest confidence that,
in consequence of this communication, the'
House of Lords will adopt that course of
proceeding which the justice of thr case, and
the honor and dignity of his majesty's crown
may require.”
BRITISH FINANCES.
Ifsveareto believe the London Times,
(in-d pvliament against (lie free-dotti ofi goods there tuav lie irifufe/l from tile fact
trad.-
(the leading opposition paper) the almost in
supportable debt of tho Biifisli nation, is
rapidly accumulating, notwithstanding the
port ant message to the House ofC'ommons,
drawn up in bold aud confident terms and
protesting against the project in contempla
tion, of appointing a secret committee to in
vestigate her conduct since she has been a-
brnad. She says she wants the fullest en
quiry into her conduct, and cl iiins an open
investigation—a privilege not denied to the
meanest individual in the State.
By the message ofthe King, it will he per
ceived that he is determined that an investi
gation shall take place.
Mr. Brougham presented the message
from the Queen to the House of Commons ;
and the papers are filled with the interesting
discussion which followed. No decisive
measures had been adopted, and the subject
had been postponed for a few days to give
the Ministry tune for deliberation. Some" of
the papers speak of hopes being entertained
that the differences between tlie royal par
ties will he amicably adjusted.
In reply to a note from Lofd Liverpool,
in which his lordship stated that notwith
standing all that had passed, any suggestions
which her majesty may have to offer upon
the propositions submitted in April last,
would be received; her majesty said—
“ That she demanded aft the rights be
longing to the Queen of England. That
before, she was in possession of all tier digni-
uities, she could not listen to any other pro
posal. That when she was restored to them,
she would be ready to listen to any propo
sals from his majesty’s ministers.”
Tlie majority in the House of Lords in
favor of Lord Liverpool's motion for the ap
pointment of a secret committee to investi
gate the conduct of the Queen, was 70.
The question for a postponement of pro
ceedings in the House ofC’ommons, was
carried unanimously.
Her majesty has been received with great
attention by the people—and from the spirit
they haverynnifested, vve should infer, that,
whethcixfier majesty is guilty or not, an at
tempt of the government to proceed to ex
tremities w ith her, would well nigh produce
a revolution.
Ever since the arrival ofthe Queenin Lon
don, ttiat metropolis has been the theatre of
perpetual riot. AH who would not huzza
and pull off their hats in honor of her majes
ty, were pelted with mud, brick-bats, fee.
and often, after having complied with the re
quisition, they were pcltul with mud for the
diversion of the mob. Carlton-House was
assailed, and the windows of Lord Sid-
mouth’s and Lord Castlcreagh’s houses, and
others, broken to pieces. The military
were on duty, blit the King had given or
ders not to take hostile measures for defence,
unless iu Ihe extreme tascorabsolute neces
sity.
Important news had reached Paris Ti-oni
Portugal. The House of Brngurza, it is
said, does not seem destined to reign over it
much longer. The House of Cadaval has.
itsjiretensions.

dovvn**, Marquis of Buckingham, Earl of Li

The following is the message communi
cated to the House of Commons, by Mr.
Brougham, by qrder of her niajestv
navv, lays the Timer,adding more to the na
tional del t annually, than vve did at the be
ginning of tlie war unrb r Mr. Pill's adminis
tration. We are now- also adding more to a
national debt of ((00,000,000 than vve wer.-
then adding to a debt of Liii),000,000 ; and
the money to pay this accumulating interest
isnavv to be taken from an exhausted peo
ple, winch at the beginning of the. war was
drawn from a population comparatively
wealthy and at ease. In March, 1703, Mr.
Pitt supplied the deficiency of the ordinary
ways and means by a loan ol’i.' 4.500,000
and the issue of K •1,000,000 nf Exchequer
hills. We, this year fund, or add to the af
fixed debt, .‘1 7,000,000 of Exchequer hills,
(not we feat, long to leave the market so far
hear of that commodity): and vve borrow,
as may hereafter be wanted, five or seven
millions ; -one sum being half a million, and
the other two and a half millions, more than
vve borrowed in the year 1703 ; and we be
sides appropriate, twelve millions ofthe sink
ing fund. In 170B, !l»e third year of ihe
war, we contracted a debt of £18,000,000.
Iu 18i0, tlie fifth year ol the peace, we bnr-
rov.-id 1 g.000,000 from the sinking fund, and
between five ami seven millions from tlie
contractors: making between seventeen and
nineteen millions : in one case but one mil
lion less, and in the other a million more,
than iu 1706. Where will this system have 1
au end ?
The Marquis of Lansdowne, in a speech
delivered on the 2d of June, mentioned the
circumstances of a Bank having failed, in the
smith of Ireland, in the stur. of about £300,-
000, which it was supposed would not be a-
ble to pay one shilling on the pound. The
editor ofthe. London Times says, he. is wot
an advocate for increasing the number of
penal statutes ; but be should not be sorry
if a law were enacted, declaring parties, iu
such transactions, to he guilty of something
more than mere insolvency. [It serins by
this, that after all our boasting, the British
will excel us in some ofthe fine arts.]

Paris is in a very unquiet state, and al: rm-

the Election Law. The debates continue to
run high. The Liberates complain that
troops have been called out to disperse the
people. M. de Girardin said, such a specta
cle he had not before witnessed for thirty
years. Paris, be said, resembled a oaplurr i!
city; troops itatkuua in various quarters,
and posts fixed far their attendance. He

excited by the appearance of the regular
force. Oil the other hard, it was said that
the conduct of the military had exhibited
ureat modi ration. The g’rulips that had
hern dispersed, were shoutin'' “ Long liv*

would appear, that the favorable change in

the natural consequence nf the general reco

A paragraph still later, says, an important
circumstance has taken place to-day. The

his duty to prefer an action against the w hole
Board of War. Tho ground of his action rt,
that the board, without any just cause, lias
dissolved a ebntraet legally made for cast

have been recently some symptoms of ano
ther insurrectionary movement in the interi
or of that Island. A Native Priest, who ad
vances some pretensions to the Throne of
Kandy, and who was very active in ihe late
rebellion but had contrived to escape ap
prehension, has liern renewing his machina
tions. He has, however, been fortunately
laid hold of, and, if he does not meet with a
severer fate, will areomper.y the other Na
tive Chiefs, ell of whom arethus now in our
possession, to the Isle of France, to which it
has been resolved to exile them.

The arrival of an express from Paris yes
terday, gave rise to rumors of disturbance
told insnrrection, and of a sudden fall of
French stock, similar to those excited on
Friday ; hut the intelligence was, in fact, iff'
a description wholly different; annoui>'j r ,
a material change fur the belter in the f,
and in general terms, the restoration of com
parative tranquillity. The e\p,|,. ft \> f

hut they arc of a nature so atrocious, that
vve will not venture, to repeat them. This
seditious confederacy marched along the
Boulevards to the Porte St. Denis, on their
arrival at which their numbers were much
increased ; they were nu t at the entrance of
the Boulevard Bonne Nouvelfe by a picquel
of Horse National Guard, who attempted in
vain to arrest their further progress. A de.
tachment of the Dragoons of the Royal
Guard, and another of Gendarmerie fell in
with them at the Chateau d Eau, and dis
persed them ; several were arrested. "Some
nfthem repaired to the fauxhonrgh St. An
tonie, uttering seditious cries, which had nr>
other effect than to occasion the shutting up
of rile shops. The presence of the troop, of
the line stationed in that fauxhourgh restrain
ed them from further excesses; at Id o’clock
tranquillity was restored. This evening, at
nine, all was qfliet in the metropolis.—Jour

An article from Vienna, of the lfith ult.

sed state of trade and the means of improv

The execution of Sandt, the. murderer of
Kotzebue, took place on the -20th of May.—
A greet multitude assembled to witness the
exe cution. If took place not at ten o’clock,
as was announced, but at six. He was de-
“ilous of addressing the populace, but the
President ofthe Court of Justice, to whom
hr had given his word not to do so, remind
*U him, that doubtless he did not wish to
perjure himself immediately previous to
death. He therefore, confined himself to
merely declaring that he “ died for his coun
try.” He evinced much calmness, and did
not accept the assistance of a minister of re
ligion. A great number of students from
Iloidcibcrg, who travelled with :.ll speed, to
he present at his execution, only arrived at
the moment when the executioner was ex
hibiting the severed head. Several sleeij.ed deuce, it is as fallow
their handkerchiefs in his blood. Sandt wore
