Centurion, and captured by the Spaniards "not unfairly" when a logwood cutter in the Bay of Honduras. News from Cadiz. Arrival of Cardinal's hat for da Cunha made the occasion of much feasting and testifies to the "cordial correspondence which at present subsists between this Court and that of Rome.".
