The reigning family has been totally exterminated. The following are extra&s from two letters written at Goulette, which we have receiv ed by the way of Livourne. We may depend on the correttnefs of the fads they contain. Goulette, ‘January 20. Sidi Mahmoud Flaffeau, cousin ■ of the reigning bey of Tunis, enjoy j ed the confidence of his sovereign, whom he attempted to render odi ous ,to the people by all pofiible means, and for a long time medita ted his ruin. In the night of the 19th of December, after 11 o’clock, Flaffen, at the head of a great num ber of conspirators and slaves of different religions, and having ap parently seduced thg greatest part of the Seraglio, entered the apart | ments of the bey and plunged with his own hand a poniard into the heart of the old man. At the fame moment the conspirators threw ; thenffelves on the partizans of Sidi Ottoman. During three hours the friends of the affafiinated prince de fended themselves with desperation. Many were killed, and nearly all ; wounded ; but in the ehd they j found it necessary to submit to the ’ usurper, who, in the midst of this I carnage, had the good fortune to J escape unhurt himfelf. While the interior of the Seragl • io was inundated with blood, the people and the troops, accustomed ! to similar scenes, quietly waited for ) the developement of the horrid ; tragedy. The two sons of the unhappy ■ Sidi Ottoman were in their differ . ent beds with their wives at the mo ■ ment of the massacre of their father. - They fcarely had time to fly in i their shirts, and to scale the walls of the Seraglio, followed by a few others, leaving to the mercy of the ’ conspirators their wives, who were • massacred without pity. The two j princes went immediately to the I suburbs, colletting as many of the inhabitants as they could, and pre i fented themselves at the gates of the city, in hopes of being support ed by the people, but no one took up arms for them. They then endeavored to make their escape, and threw themfelvei into a barque to go to Goulette. They reached there in the morning ; but Mah mofld had been beforehand with them, and the authority was already in his hands. They were instantly arrested : certain of their fate they would have thrown themselves into the sea, but were prevented and closely pinioned, and put on two mules to conduct to Tunis. At a (hort distance from the city they were met by their barbarous cousin, who ordered their throats cut on the highway. Mahmoud then returned to Tu nis, where he was recognized the absolute master of the regency.— He has given his daughter in mar- [Payable half yearly. riage to Sidi Soliman Kiaja, chief of a powerful parry under the for mer dynasty, and who had great in fluence over the people. By this: means he gained him entirely to his cause. The prime minister of the new sovereign is Juffuf Koggia Sappß tappa, to whom the bey has pro mised his filler. Juffuf is a fero cious man, who has begun his ministerial career by ordering the hanging of Mariano Stinka, who enjoyed the favor of Sidi Ottoman, but who had merited the general hatred by his cruelty to the slaves, and his insolence towards the Eu ropean consuls. He was a rene gado, born at Sorrente,in the king dom of Naples, of a poor and ob scure family, and who was a Have at the age of twelve years: he had become the arbiter of the person and estates of his master. They have seized all his riches, which were in.menfe. The renagado phvfician Mah met has lately been strangled by the? order of the fame minister. January 2S. JuffufKoggia has enjoyed but ft few moments the post to which he was raised by the iaft revolution. After the maffaCre of the family of Ottoman, he formed a projeft to destroy the usurper and his ions, tc to mount the throne himfelf. The 22d he came out of the So* raglio, and went throughout Tunis with the pomp of a sovereign. He ordered money to be distributed to the soldiers, to prepare them for anew revolution. The Regent was informed of this; and when Juffuf Koggia returned to the Se raglio, the chief of the Mamelukes arrested him in the name of the bey, and seized him faft by the beard. Koggia drew his poniard, and mortally wounded the Mame luke chief, and severely the soldiers who surrounded him ; but in spite of his vigorous resistance he was thrown to the ground, and carried all bloody and half dead to the presence of the bey. The latter, after having reproached him with his treachery and ingratitude, or dered his head cut off on the fpot # which was instantaneously done. The enraged populace dragged his corpse all over the city, and the military had much difficulty to tear from them the horrid remains of the mutilated carcase His parti sans are arrested, and great chang es are rumoured. The soldiers have taken the oath of fidelity to Sidi Mahmoud Flaffen, and the maffacreg have ceased. Every one has quietly returned to his ordinary occupations, as if nothing had hap pened. [Sidi Ottoman succeeded Hamuda Pacha, his brother, who died the 24th of September last, after a peaceful reign of thirty two year3.J ~ AN APPRENTICE, Wanted at this Office.
