7Vif Descent of the Michigan, which excited so mucli curiosity took place on Saturday lat. She was towed clown from Black llock on that morning by the steam boat Chippawa, with a cargo of live aid Tnals consisting of a Buffalo, two Hears, two Foxes a Raccoon, a Dog, a Cat, and four Geese, on board. She had five effigies stationed in djlVerent pai ts of her rigging ; the Amciican Ensign at her t jw spt it, the British Jack at her poop and the Black Flag at the tore mast head. At tlireo o'clock, P. M. she was towed by a bjatto the head of the rapids, the animals turned loose on her deck, anil abandoned. She passed down the rapids Mitii great rapidity, and reached the pitches some distance above the Falls uninjured At the top of the first she truck and remained perhaps a minute, perfectly still, when her stern swung round, and she passed over broadside, and appeared very near capsizing but righted At the second her masis suited, and the a in mats all left her ; on p using the third pitch her masts went overborn! and she fitnk to the waters edge, in which situation she fl-iated to the Falls went over Stei n foremast, and was dashed to peices Two of the Geese, and tno Cat went over the Falls uninjured. The bears and dog swam ashore above the fibs. Nothing Was seen of the other animals. The number who attended to witness Jits spectacle is stiniAled at ten to twelve thousand. Erie (luz.

I'll? natives were incessantly fighting with the Dutch : and the same rancorous spit it is actuating the insurgents. The letters represent the Dutch Authorities in Batavia as much in want of men and money. The Swedish government has recently concluded a treaty with lurkcy, for the free admission of their fhg into the Black Sea. It is said to be very favourable to oweden, and a great triumph in diplomacy 3n the part of Count de L oweniiiclm, who concluded the treaty. His government, entertaining this opinion, have raised him to the dignity of Envoy Extraordinary and Minister Plenipotentiary to the court of Vienna. The treaty of Commerce and Naviga- .

tion between Sweden am! the U Vales was signed on the 4th of July, by Count Vittertcdt St Mr Appleton, our Chat ge d flairs. The treaty is founded on a system of perfect reciprocity. The ratification not having been yet exchanged, the Swedish government had only suiVered the general principles to be made known to the merchants for their guidance. The six Missouri Indians who recently eft this country hjd arrived at Havre, and were on their way lo lis. Thev uttrae ted much attention in France. The St. Petersburg Journal of the 17th n't. contains an article dated Orenburgh, June 20, which gives news from the trontiers of China ; according to w hich, a hero named Ar Khodgi, :d'ter some success a-r-ainst the Chinese, found himself oppo red toa formidable army, sent to put down the insurrection which he had excited That service appears to have been .speedily performed ; and Ar Khodgi lost his life. Whether he died in battle, or by the hands of the executioner, does not distinctly ap-p-rar ; but the former may be inferred, as his death is mentioned in connection with the military operation which etushedthe rebellion. This adventurer is stated to have had some Europeans among his lol-

Within two months Irorn this time the affairs of the east will take a decisive turn M St. Pctersburgh, July 14 On the I lth, there wa3 a violent hutticaue, the wind being east, which, in the evening veered to the northwest, and caused the Neva too vcrflow during the night, so that it was necessary to fne signals of alarm.

Paris, July 30 A letter from Marseilles, dated July 24. says " Wc have just acquired a confirmation of the news that two French vessels, Le Neptnneand Le Jean Bart, which sailed !rom our port for Alexandria, have been pillaged on the passage by pirates. It is also said that a French vessel, loaded with oil, was discovered o!V Malta, dismasted, and with two dead bodies laying on the deck. It was towed lilt) Malta." The following, according to letters from Leghorn, is the repot t made to the In'eadancy of that island by Captain Lamay a Sardinian, viz : a That he sailed front Gibraltar for Algiers with a rich cargo, and entered the port of the latter tow n without being stopped by the French squadron ; that he landed his goods there, and sailed out to go to Leghorn (One of thi! letters from Leghorn says, that the captain was visited on coming out o Al giers, but the others make no mention of it.) Whiht he was at Algiers, he saw all the corsairs of that na'ion that were equipped, put to sea. and one corvette enter from Alexandria, (where it had carried pilgrims,) with two hundred WaUlaches, (icl ruits.) u The Dey of Algiers has summoned the population of the town an ihc interior, to take up arms in defence of the religion o' Mahomet, which, he says, the infidels wish to destiny, bv taking possession of Algiers. The population v.eem t he as enthusiastic as willing, in ease of a lati.linr, to irv the hazard of a battle. With

respect to the bombardment with, vl,ich

he is threatened, whevher it be troin bluster or from confidence in his st length, the Dey does not seem to have any 'car of it ; he neglects nothing that may enable him to rencl an attack, cither by sea m land." M. Drovetti, Consul Ocneial at Alexandria, is out of quarantine, and has set out for Pat is. It is to be hoped he will be listened to, and understood, in the reports he will make. The following is the sub stance of the letters received from Alexandra, during the last week u The finances of the Pacha are still in a bad state; he desires to declare himseif independent, in order no more toexhausf his treasure and army . lie calls upon France to protect him, by sending him officers of all kinds, and preventing the coming of the Turkish squadron to Alexandria. Were he somewhat assured of that protection, he would withdraw his troops from the Morea, and would no more mix himself up in the a ft airs olG.eece, of which there is no news, except that the Meet under Lord Cochrane has had an engagement with that of the Turks This new?, without having been authenticated, obtains rome credit.' A Icier from Toulon says u The journals lias for sometime since been talking of the Pacha of Egypt rendering himself independent. I have for a long time received confidential itvelligence upon the subject. 1 have been several times tempted to Icl vou in the secret, but have been arrested by the fear that an indiscretion of the kind might embarrass the plan, and do mischief to the Egyptian and Greek causes, which are in future to be the same The ohject of our Consul Gener Ps (M. Drovctii) negotiations arc now explained to you General Livron ought now to be in London, if the French government favours the plans of the Pacha. It is looked upon as almost certain, that the arrival of the combined fleets in the seas of the Levant will be the signal of Mehemct All's declaration of independence.

ness of Mr. Canning. The London cor icspO'iduit of the Liverpool Courier, un dcr date of the 6th August, says " No e

vent within our recollection has excited a

more intense interest in the city than the illness ot Mr. Canning. The anxiety to leatn tne latest intelligence fiom Chis wick was unabated tlnoughout the day, and tin. inquiries were so numerous and inccsMdit mat it seemed as if the mer chants had abandoned their nsual occupations lr the purpose ol making them. 1 ne exchange was nearly as much thiotiged dining the day as it is during the hours of transacting business. A very marked effect was produced on the public securities. 1 iV; London Couticr of August 10, says ol ministerial arrangements u It would not only be premature, but idle, to talk ol what may be the ultimate ministerial arrangements. Lord Goderich having received hiJ Majesty's commands to form a cabinet, or to speak with more precision. to supply the vacancies occasioned by the lamented death of Mr. Canning, the noble viscount is of course to be regarded as the individual who will be at the head of his majesty's government Beyond this, no step has yet been taken ; bur one thing wc believe is certain, there will be no change in the principles upon which Mr Cannings government was istahlish cd. A Cabinet Council was held at the Foreign Ollice last night, which sat from 9 o'clock till half past I I, at which we may presume those genera! considerations only were discussed. v hich would necessarily precede any specific metis ures. A messenger was despatched tins morning by Lord Goderich to the Kieg, communicating the result." The Sun of the 1 I th, states that the appointment ot Lord Goderich as First Minister, had given great and general satisfaction.
