21 MARCH 1835, Page 2

On the 24th of January, there was a partial insurrection

of the Negroes at Bahia, in the Brazils. The military posts were at- tacked by the Blacks with much bravery, but successfully de- fended by the soldiery. About forty Negroes were killed; and the insurrection was quelled completely when the last accounts were despatched, on the 28th of January. The leaders of the insurgents are said to have been all favourite slaves, and to have been treated with unusual kindness by their masters.
