Bat the revolutionaries toOB received the anfwer of the Brde by which he apprifed them that Sidi MuU-pha and Srmain Bey decided, M that th?y would not iVparat the rofr Ives from the party of the Bacha and of Sidi Affen, Bey that they were ready to die in their defence, and that in their qu di ty of netreft relatives of the Sovereign, they w oal Id take no p-rt in the revolt ag.ni.ft him." At this tnomi t the plans of the rebels veere difconcerteiJ, and it was clearly fern, that their ol-c was to replace the exifting governm;nt, by an elective Tuikilh government. In reality, one of their principi! officers, Dcy Alt, had nominated himfelf Bcha. The fr ft ift of his power had been to grant his accomplices the pilUge of the town for eight days, an augmentation of pay, and the abolition of fr verl impofls. Happily for us, Time of the lefs viol-nt were of opinion, that before all, it would be necrlTary to friz- on the Goletta, an ef feRtial point of communication to fecure a Tetret, in cafe of accident, nnd to provide themfelvrs with p wder and b ll. This opinion prevailrd, d we w-re fived. They rrfolved alfo to fmd to CnhSntiplet a petition finned by the principal petfonajr-s of the town, whom thev would havearrrfted, declaring to thr Grand Srignio , that the people of this regency could iio longer endure the bad government oi Mihamud and his fon, and praying him to confirm new Purkiftl Bcba, whom they had put in hil pi re. This petition being finned, one of the ofTirers iT-rcd to undertake, wi'h 400 of the mofl determined Tu'ks, the rxprdition a?ainft the Goletta, n.l proceeded on it at night f'M. Hardly hid they departed from the town, wh"n th -f who lud ftnnrd wit'i thr in trofie Deli ,li,iolled of obeying his fan giiimre order?, threw themfelvrs oa him, c'ifirm'd and ft him into a dungeon, as the principal mthoroftbe revolt, and fop plicated the B y to grant a general imnefty tn the othrr 1 irk-, who they faid, hulneen Educed, and led away from theif duty Tranquility was thus eftablilhed alrnofi Without exrton. In the mean t me, thofe who had marched igaii ft the Goletta, app'ifed of this laft event, 1 ft no courage.

This is a new proof of the (lability of treaties concluded with the barbarians." OS EMIGRATION The fpirit of emigration is chirfly excited by the catamnities which the wars in Europe hive introduced, and from the disappuintments upon the return of j)eace. Upnn the continrnt in Germany k Switaerland they have been chiefly of this kind. Iu France they are connected with the degradation and rigorous purfuit of the triends of the late g ivernment. In England alutott altogether from the public burden". In Scotland they are more connected with their love of independence, and in Ireland from the dread of oppreffion. The Englifh too well remember the firQ fettlement of their colonies, to adopt rigoroufly the fpirit of refinance to the purpofc of emirtion. Mr. Huine deferves to be remrmber'-d.
