A letter from Algiers of the 3d of March, states that the Dey died of the plague, after an illness of 24 hours, and that his successor was his former minister, Coja deCavalli. It appears from private letters, that the markets for American 2nd colonial produce had .-advanced considerably.

Paris, March 9. The Seine has risen considerably, and has overflowed the low grounds on its banks. Numerous accidents were, caused on Saturday, at Paris, by a tremendious hurricane. Several persons passing were blown down upon the quays, and even horses were stopped in their course ; a hackney coachman was killed on his box in the Rue de Bac, by the fall of a chimnev ; tiles and slates

fell in showers. The lead on the roof of the bank of France, the roof of the Palais Bourbon, and those of several public edifices, were very con dsiderably damaged. Several cabriolets, stationed near the Pont Louis XVI. were blovvn over.

The accounts from Munich state, that subterranean detonations had been heard there, similar to those which at Mexico preceded shocks of earthquakes. In consequence of these detonations, horses were found in their stables covered with sweat. It is added . that trenches had been dug in order to endeavor to discover the cause and origin of these subterranean noises.

LATEST FROM ENGLAND. Genoa, Feb. 25. The commander of thesquadron of the United States of America in the Mediterranean, has required the Dey of Algiers to give orders to his cruisers not to take the liberty in future of visiting American vessels, under any pretext whatever, because, as the -plague prevails in ; the tetritory of Algiers, it is - much . to be feared . that the , contagion might be spread by these visits. - He added that, that in case of refusal, he had orders to give chase to the Algerine vessels, and . to sink them. . If ail the maritime powers would hold the same energetic language, there would not be so much reason to fear that those

cruizers . would communicate the plague to us, and their piracies would cease of themselves. Army cf occupation. A letter from Valenciennes, dated March 12, says ".It is at length decided that the army of occupation will soon quit .France ; the. Danish, Hanovarian, and Saxon contingents, which form part of the right wing, will commence their march to return home in May. The Russian and English corps will remain till September. At that time the English will go to Calais to embark, and the Russians to Dunkirk. All the Rus- - sian horses are to be ceded to France. Such are the reports at Camt bray, from a respectable source."

-MADISON,

May 23, 1813.

NeW'Orleans, April I. Rumor has been for some time busy in this city, with the designs now on foot against the Spanish provinces beyond the Sabine. It is currently reported that the French exiles in the United States formed a plan, some time since, for taking possession of the province of Texas, with perhaps the ; adjoining country, called province cf Internes. A subscription was raised amongst the most wealthy, to defray the incidental expenses. Mr. Girard is said to have subscribed 50,000 dollars, and Joseph Banaparte, Marshal Grouchy, he. are also believed to have contributed largely. Some have gone so far as to assert, that the leaders notified the Spanish minister at Washington, of their intention to colonize the above province j where they are willing to acknowledge the supremacy of old Spain, in case she allowed them to remain undisturbed. We should have' treated all this as idle rumor, had not a late letter from Natchitoches set the matter beyond all question.
