Southern privateers in Europe. --A letter in the Boston Advertiser from an officer of the United States steamer Richmond, dated at Genca, May 21, brings the following important intelligence: It is currently reported here that several parties are only waiting our departure from the Mediterranean to fit out privateers.--These vessels would cruise about, just outside the Straits of Gibraltar and intercept and capture all vessels either in or outward bound. Immense injury might be done to our commerce in this way, for our trade with all the countries whose shores are washed by these waters is very large, and its only outlet is through the narrow Strait of Gibraltar.
