ton Roads from Madeira, via Isle of -May,
having sailed from the latter
27th October, brings intelligenca
strongly confirmatory of the distressed
condition of the Cape de Verd Islandr
generally, from the awful calamity ol
famine. An intelligent passengei,
with whom we have had an interview,
states that the condition of the Islan
ders has not been at all exaggerated
in the accounts previoosly received hi
the United States, and that the bet;
edictions of thousands will be pouretl
forth for the timely relief sent fron
our country. In Brava and Fogt
the distress was most calamitous wit' -in
a few months, 200 persons had per
ished there by famine, and such was
their abject condition, that even a
warm eaten biscuit was caught at tviih
avidity, and the blessing of heaven in-.,
yoked on the donor. A vessel from
