They contain distressing accounts of the lamentable state of vegetation on the Continent, in consequence of the backwardness of the Season. Of political intelligence there is little of novelty in these Papers. One of the most execrable of the French Jacobins, General Hutue, has obtained an asylum in Moravia, where he is said to have purchased as estate. There have been eras in this wretched assas. sin's life so remarkable for their atrocity, that the cause of humanity would be injured were he permit. ted quietly to sit down in Moravia, or any where else, without carrying his character along with him.

Private Letters received this miming from Amr. trice, state, that the new Tariff is not expected to pass into a law this Sessions. A Gentleman, arrived yesterday from Hambnrgh, informs us, that the favourable effect which the new Russian Torii had had upon sugars had ceased.

' sequence was, the fall of sugars to nearly their for. mer prices. FRISCH COTTON MANUFACTURE-Cs—The following observations by Count Beugnot on this subeet, in the French Chamber of Deputies, in their sitting of tlie 9th, are interesting use of cotton stuffs has „become extremely common in Europe, and has Cl* Misled even to the lowest classes of society.—Eng , land first introduced this taste, and cultivated it to her great advantage. France in her tom became possessed of this new br.incli of iadestry ; and is soil, in presence of her formidable rival, competing With some advantage in the more common articles of mi. mifacture, and consequently those of chief eonsurop• Lion. Put England has over France an immense superiority ; her machines daily acquire increasict perfection ; her capital is extremely abundant, ace. her supplies of the raw material very easy. Hence results a lowness of price against which our nianu• lecturers cannot contend, even with the addition of lOper cent. 'required by the English uoderwriters as . the premium of insurance on smuggling. On tl other head, our cotton manufactures esperietteed 2 fatal shock in 1811, when it became necessary 12 pass immediately, and without gradual transition, from the continental to the European system. Unit► these circumstances, let us not tax the raw material (cotton wool) severely. The duty recommended d* Committee will not amount to mo re thaw from three to seven centimes oo the ell of cones cloth, which wilt be countervailed by the premium allowed on export, and thus will be only a duty on home consumption. The tariff is still, however, too high ; I and I propose to replace it by duties on cotton stilts imported. of which it will be vain to attempt the prohibition. Land-smuggling will still elude the ei" gilanat of oar Custom-hottse Officers ; and the on'? moans of putting a stop to it is to impose on the goods introduced a duty, which may countsrbalacce premium of the insurauce•writers. entered 'amen ; : 4 ~ G ratz. • racquet; th BITING frok 16. and foe. a bi %11.1 fr om rt 11 the Me n ,„ l , r r
