A relation of the combined attack
Cf the Englilli and Drch (Lets,

‘calumn* of to-day. The Tefult is
acceptable to our feelings, inasmuch

moved for a time front the immedi
ate catalogue of ills, to which the
Cknfit.m world is fubjetl.
I he refi lance of Algiers, against
f) formidable a fleer, as that brought
cgaifilt her, is tru>v ailonilhing. and
V indelibly imp relies uponthe rellect

judice, by a comparison of exploits,
