AFRICAN INSTITUTION • Lori Exmouth will sail in a few days with the aqua• drou destined to ruscu.: the high character which Great Britain deservedlsr holds in the opinion of all Europe, frnwthe , cliou4 charge of conniving at. the outrages long coniutitted With impunity by the pirates of North ern Africa. Never did an expi,dition depart from our shores with more general or unqualified wishes tir its complete success. It is entbarled not only in the cause of all the civilized nations. of Europe, but in that of human nature ; •for what is the slavery of the natives of Africa, in our trans-atlantic Colonies, about which so much argumentative sympathy is perpetually and honour ably displayed, when compared with that of the Chris tians who annually fall into the power of those infamous banditti of Algiers,. Tripoli, and Tunis? It is really astonishing and incomprehensible, by what stupid and in fatuated poli.v those receptacles of naval piracy can have been prmittcd so long to exist, when there is not a single European Power that has not suffered from them Site grossest outrages ; while no benefit is derived from an intercourse with them, by any nation in the world. Surely ,they cannot be thought ton contemptible fin. ven geance, when the lamentable fact is on undisputed record, that there are never fewer than from 4000 to 5000 Christian slaves enduring the most horrible of human sufferings in the territories of those despicable third-rate tyrants. But whatever the policy may have 'been that has hitherto caused our forbearance, we hope and believe that it is at an end. The circumstance of the gallant AdmiraLbeing accompanied by bomb-vessels and rocket ships, proves that it is at last intended to strike a blow ; and thus while we feel convinced that temporLing is past, we have only to look timwaid to the complete anni hilation of the whole of the piratical fleets, and de molition of the fortresses that protect them ; regretting however, that such an operation has been thus lung de keyed. When we reflect, that these very piratical States once formed, under the dominion of the Carthaginians, the greatest naval Power in the world, and had a more ex tensive commerce titan all the other people on the face of the earth united, we have still greater grounds far asto :rishment and indignation at the apathy of the whole of -modern Europe towards the ex::esses of the wretches who have succeeded those distinguished heroes of antiquity ; and who, for more than a century, have been sutihred to lay all the commercial nations of the world under annual tribute, as the price of their temporary abstinence from •plunder. We have often heard the argument, that the different States of Europe were jealous of each other in regard to the influence which any one might hereafter obtain in this part of Africa, it„ by a consentaneous en- , aerprize, they were to destroy the vessels of the banditti. 'That such a jealousy may have -always existed towards Great Britain, as the greatest naval power in the world, • we can readily inttrg:ne; yet nothing can be more ahntra • and futile than the principles on which it is grounded. lt' it had not been for such a pitiful taal miserable jea- • lousy, there is no doubt that any one of those Powers . would have long since, of its own accord, performed the task which we have at last taken upon ourselves. But we wish those envious scribblers-tin the German Papers, woo so l..tely threw out the calumny, that it was a duty' incumbent upon as to avenge the cause of the rest of Eu rope, would point out how we could in future be Irene fitted by our forbearance. We have no commerce with the North of Africa ; and in tityt those piratical States lave no trade worth mention* with any part of 'the world ; but ever since the time 'when their :die Chief, Muhl Molise, defeated and killed Don Sebastian, King •of Portugal, they have lived in an almost continua/ state ef warfare with every nation in Christendom. We may look, therefore, in vain, for any plitical motive as the cause r of our preseirt lenity. That which existed in 17113, when (as on several occasions since) we did not disdain to pureha.se their friendshipty eoneiderable presents, cer tainly exists no longer. To have attacked the Barbary Pirates at those periods, would have inevitably involved us in a war with the Ottoman Porte ; to whom, it ought to he kept iu mini, the States cf Northern Africa have .ever leen and arc to this hour tributary. A war, then, with the Porte at any firmer period, would have put a pop to the immense Turkey trade, which we have car ried on exclusively tin. more than a century, particularly or warier cloths ; hut a more important point would haat I , een the loss of an ally, which, by good diplomatic ma .ragement, we have always succeeded in keeping !ion& the ill-devouring g rasp of revolutionary France.

Our ttade with Tur key has of late stdkred the sante decline, and from the same causes, as has affected it in every other part of Eu rep ; and now, therefore, the hour has arrived to avenge the insults we have received from tho.•:e ivtty despots, who have violated every title to their reception within the pale of humanized nations.

MR. SHERIDAN'S FUNERAL. The remains of Mr. Sheridan were, on Saturday, in terred in Westminster Abbey. The place chosen was Poet's Corner; a very proper tribute to the genius and talents of this eminent man. The spot where the vault was sunk, is immediately opposite the monument of Shnkopear on one side, and the tomb of Addison on the other, in the middle of the aisle; the head of the grave is to the north—the foot to the south. The mourners and attendants assembled in the. foreman', at the house of an intimate friend of Mr. Sheridan, Peter Moore, lisq. in Great George-street. At a quarter past one the funeral approached the Abbey ; was a walking fune ral ; there was, we think s one mourning coach only. We believe that no funeral, since that of Nelson, has been more splendidly attended—by men of all parties—states men of all opinions; in a word, by persons.who tamed nothing but a common sentiment of respect to wards a distinguished man, •with whom some had acted together in-public, others had contended with in debate, but whom all applauded and admired. The mourners, independent of the. feluily friends, amounted to about .200. RELATIONS. Mr. C. B.

The procesion reached from the Writ door down.to the organ loft, at the entrance: of the chapel. The bu rial service was pertimned at the grave. Lords Enikine, Siintouth, and Holland, were peculiarly ,affected. The Bishop of London, dressed ih his cossack, but not offici ating, seemed to be notch impro.sed He attended Mr.: Sheridan, to administer religious consolation, in his lust illness. The coffin was not very richly ornamented, nor scant of ornament ;it was simple and elegant. The pro-. cession dispersed soon idler the funeral. It is remarkable, that, until Thsrsday last, it was doubtful whether a place would be found to lodge an ad ditional coffin .amongst the great men whose fame and monuments stamp honour and lustre on this sacred divi sion of the Abbey, consecrated to the Muses. 'f books of the Cathedral were examined, and oral testimony sought iu all directions likely to afford information; and, after all, sufficient space could only be fintnd for one ad dititard coffin, in ale midst of ninny of Mr-Sheridau's admired and illustrious predecessors. On the eastern side is the full-length,statuc of the im mortal Shakspeare ; and on the western side the full length statue of the accomplisiwd Addiom, whose coun tenances seem apparently directed to the very spot so dim , covered for the deposit of Mr. Sheridan, surnntndM by the relies of Garrick, Canberland, S.

DREADFUL INFLUENCE OF INFIDEL WRITINGS. rARI4, Jotv 7.—A Very extraordinary example of the fatal itt:lneitee of the doctrines of Voltaire and Rousseau occurred on Friday evening at the Royal College of • Henry IV. in the infint person of a scholar not fourteen years of age. The youth's name is —, brother to the Director of . In a walk the lads of the College were taking, he rleviated a little from the ranks, and was punished according to the.discipline establighad, with several hours' imprisonment. In this prison he formed and perpetrated the resoluton of hanging himself ; and previously to its completion, left the ,following•croeu tuent on the table which I translate verbatim.
