the FTonorable Court of Policy and
Criminal Justice of the Colony Berbice.
To all to whom these presents may or

\ \ HEREAS we have taken under consideration,
that altho’ the right of Szanmary Execution has been
granted by us tothe Vendue Master, for the time
being, of the Colony Berbice, (for the recovery of
Debts contracted at Public Sale), in order that the
Sellers of Goods at Public Vendue, may meet with
no delay {roan the Vendue Office at the expiration of
the credit stipulated by them. Yet that the object
of this authority tothe Vendue Master granted for
the advantage of the Public, has been in many in-
stances frustrated; several of our Inhabitants who
have sould goods at Public Sale, having’sustained se-
rious inconverfence in their payments betng procras-
tinated by the Vendue Master, beyond the Jimita
tion of the Credit engaged to be allowed by them.
We have therefore thought it expedient to make
further disposition on this head, by enacting and
vranting, as we do hereby Enact and Grant, from
and after the day of the date of the Publication of
- these presents, to the Sellers of Goods, at_ Public
Sale, within the Colony Berbice, the same Right of
Summary Tvecuticn, for the recovery of the amount
of the proceeds gf such Sales at Vendue as has been
heretofore granted by usto the Vendue Master, for
the time being, against all) Purchasers of Goods at
Public Veodue, with this reserve however ;
That the enforcement of Payment by the Scilers,
against the Vendie Maoter, shall only take place Six
weeks after the expiration of the credil, stipulated
af the day of Sale. and ander which the goods are
soli, ana after payinent of the net proceeds of the
goods so sold shall have been legally demanded trom
the Veudue Master.
And should a‘ter the expiration of the credit un-
der which goods are ex; osed by the Seller, as also
alter the further atlowaace of six weeks for collec-
tion, the Vendue Master still remain in default Por-
ty cig in hours after a leonl demand for payment shall
have been made; the Seller in order to profit of this
present enactinent in their favor may proceed to pre-
sent a Petition to the Honorable Court of Civil dus-
tice, or by their non-sessions to His Excellency the
Goveraor as President of the said Court, in order to
elleet a recovery of what is due him or them, by
Summary Execution; and on his Excellency the
Governor, or the Hon, Court granting the Prayer ot
the Petition, the Petitioner may proceed to the en-
foreement of the fiat, thro’ the Deurwaarder, aticr
due Sommation and Renovation.
And in order that no ignorance may be pretended,
these presents shall be published, printed and posted
up as Customary,
hus enacted in our Assembly, held at the Court

said ‘Town, in proportion to the quantity of Land pos-
sessed by him, her, or them, for the purpose of im-
proying the Public Dams, Roads, Bridges, and Drain-

We have the pleasure to announc: to the Public,
the arrival of His Excellency Majo: General Mur-
“RAY.—ILis Excellency, by virtue of His Majesty's
appointment, will receive over the Civil Administra-
tion of the Colony Berbice and assume the Functions
of Governor, on Monday next.
A Mail for Barbados will be made up at the Post Office here, on
Tuesday the 31st inst. at 10 o'clock, Pp. »#. to he forwarded to Bar-

From the late t nglish Papers.
An order has lately been issued bythe War Office. per-
mitting the Fife Militia now at Chatham, and all the other
regimeuts of Scotch Militia, to volunteer into the 49th
regiments of the linc, now serving in Canada; on conditi-
on, as is to be stated in their attestations, that each vo-
lunteer shall be discharged at the expiration of six months
aficr a general peace, and be allotted a certain quantity
of land inproportion to his rank.
On the Ist of June, the Officers and men, quartered at
Radipole Barracks, were gratified in seeing a brother
soldier rewarded. Serjeant William Butler, of the 12th
Light Dragoons.—AIl the Non Commissioned Officers of
that Regiment were ordered (o attend the Mess-room, after
their Officers’ dinner, when Capt. Cole, of the Regiment,
in the presence of the Field Officers and men belonging to
the garrison, presented unto Serjeant Wm. Butler a silver
cup, which the Officers had voted to him as atoken of
their regard for bis goud services, as a man and a soldier,
for 48 years in that Regiment. Capt. Cole’s address in
presenting the same, was such as to animate the young
soldier, and to inspire those of more mature age to follow
the example of the old veteran whom he was about to
reward; the same was received with every dezree of dix-
nity and respect becoming the soldicr., When the old
Warrior received the emblem of houour, his feelings may
be better imagined than described. ‘The Band struck up
‘Britons strike home,’ and they marched to the old veter-
au’s room in military order, waore the enp was filled with
Claret, and the evening spent with the gteatest: order and
conviviality, atthe expence of the Officers of the garrison,
during which the old soldive dauced several burupipes, in
the 74th year of his age.
In her late passage from the Cape of Good Hope, the
Union discovered a shoal and seef Lithertu unknown, of
considerable caAtent, and ua uently Gahsctolls tu vessels
passing from thence to the Fieach isiands, asit lies in the
Girect (ract; the account we heve been politely favoured
with, states, that the Union was becamed for thece hours
within three miles of a small rock, the length of which was
computed to be 12 yards, and the elevation above the wa.
(er about six fect) trom which areef extends nearly six
miles. The weather had been very favourable, and the
Commander of the Union having a good Chronometer, it
Ss Delteved that the position of this reef aud shoal has been
icurately ascertained: ‘The longitude agreed very near.
ly) witha recent lunar observation. We cannot, of conrse,
vuuch for the accuracy of a verbal communication, but
the latitude is stated to be 35, and a dew min. S. and the
longitude 52, $0, E. Itis thoughe to be the shoal laid
down in some charts by the Dutch, and nawed Slut van
Coqal.
An Trish estate has recently been advertised in a Cork
Hewspaper, with temptations to a purchaser of no ordinary
Kirsl—il Consists of Owo villages, the futnre prospects of
which are set torth by stating, that one of them is lot for
nue hundeed years, and the other ou a lease for ever! on
the expiration of which terms, both the said villages will
be capable of great improvement.
AMERICAN INTELLIGENCE,
New York, June 21.—We understand that an express
to General bzard reached here last evening from New
Londou, bringing intelligence that the British squadron
off that port had been resuforced by a ship of the line,
three frigates, aud a brig; and that it was apprehended an
immediate attack would be wade upon the town. ‘This
news has been subsequently corroborated by the arrival of
a smack down the Souud.—the Captain of which states,
that he saw the above-described force off New London
yesterday afternoou, aud that they suflered htm to pass
unmolested.
The United States’ brig Argus sailed from this port for
France on Saturday, with a fair wind, having on board
vur Ambassador, Mr. Crawford, and suite.
By letters received here from Washington, it appears
that the nomination of Gallatin, as Minister to Russia,
has been rejected by the Senate by a-majority of six. It
is considered necessary that the ollice of Secretary to the
Treasury should be declared yacaut before the above ap-
pointment could’be confirmed.
Kinston, June 7th,
General Order.—His Excellency the Commander of
the Forces has great satisfaction in ordering the following
General Order, issued by Major-General De Rottenburgh,
to be published, and to add his approbation of the judge-
ment and gallantry displayed upon the occasion by Major
Taylor of the 100th regiment, and the officers and inen
employed in the attack of the enemy’s armed vessels.
By His Excellency’s command,

terday between the gun-buats and detachments from the

Growler and Eagle, from Lake Champlain; having each
1] guns, with four officers and 45 men on board, and which
