most horrible pictures of cruelty that can he imagined and one would suppose that devils in the shape of men, had been let loose for a season, to exhibit a complete destitution of every feelii g of humanity. Fhe traders have established several towns or stations on the coast, for carrying on their business. The governor of Sierra Leone, general Turner, lately headed an expedition against some of them, and destroyed the whole in his neighborhood, purifving the infernal holds with fire. The wretches made battle in several instances, but were defeated and dispersed with much loss. Among the towns conflagrated was Nonguba," a place supposed by some of the negroes to he the local habitation of Old Satan, for so the priests

.taught them and well it mijiht he so con-

sidered because of its trade. A slave vessel belonging to St. Salvador.

j Brazil, with 600 negroes ori board, carry

ing 12 guns and 70 men, was lately captured by a British tender of 4 guns and 20 men. The cowardly creatures all ran below, except the boatswain, when the attack was commenced. We wish that there was some law to sell these fellows to the interior of Africa. Thirty sail of slave ships, belonging.to Bahia, have lately been captured on the

i coast in consequence business was very jdull in that city, and the merchants great- ! lv embarrased. Three vessels, however, I had safely arrived with 1,0G5 slaves.
