SICIL r. MEScINA, DECEMBER 14. We announced in our last the arrest of Captain D. Andrea Rosaroll, Officer of Police in this city, and that he would immediately be tried. On Tuesday morning a Court-martial was assembled, c o m p ose d of the following officers of the army of his Sicilian Majesty, viz. Colonel D. Giuseppe, President ; Lieu tenant-Colonel D. Ferdinando Macry, Major D. Fran cesco de Arribas, Major D. Tommaso Poulet, Major D. Ferdinando Turiano, Major D. Andrea Certina, Captain D. Louis Dellariollis, Captain D. Giuseppe Ramet, Lieut. D. Dominic° Cianciolo Fiscal. The Royal Commission being opened with the ( usual forms, the letters written by the said Rosaroll to General Manhis were produced, as also the depo sitions of the spy whom ate had employed in carrying on this treacherous commerce, who has been likewise -apprehended. The culprit underwent the usual in terrogatories of the Fiscal and Members of the Coun cil, and permission was given him to choose his Ad vocate from among the Sicilian officers in this fortress. He chose the Captain of Engineers, D. Mariano Im peroto, who accepted the office, and conducted his defence as zealously as possible. All the proofs being examined with impartiality, the Court-martial pro. ceeded to pass sentence, which was, that the said Captain D. Andrea Ros . irolt should be degraded from his office, and suffer the punishment of death. This sentence was sent to Palermo for the approbation of his Majesty. DEC. 21.—Last Tuesday arrived a courier from Palermo, bringing the confirmation, by his Sicilian Majesty, of the sentence passed by the Council of War on Captain D. Andrea Rusaroll. His Excel lency Lieutenant-General Danero notified the same to the prisoner, and gave him twenty-four hours to prepare himself for death. The sentence was accor dingly tarried into execution on Wednesday, in the plan of Terranova, The following is a list of persons arrpsted;—Colo. nel D. Constantino de Filippis ; Lieutenant-Colonel D.

AMERICA IHOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES, DPC'Plart et. The Resolution some time since laid on the table by Mr. Poindexter, calling upon the President for in- formation relative to West Florida, was taken up and agreed to, and a Committee of two appointed to carry it to the President. A Member offered the following Resolution, which was agreed to, and a Committee of two appointed to carry it to the President :—Resolved, That the Presi dent of the United States be requested to cause to be laid before this House information whether tobacco, the growth of the United States, is admitted into Holland ; and if admitted, whether the regulations en regis, relative to that article, extend to Holland and the Hanseatic Towns, &c. The House again went into a Committee of the whole, Mr. Breckenridge in the chair, on the Bill for raising an additional military force of 25,000 men. Atter various amendments, the bill was gone through; after which Mr. CLAY (Speaker) expressed his sentiments with respect to this Bill. He contended that the force it was proposed to raise, so far from tieing too large, was entirely too small for war. 11 this army of '25,000 men was int ..ded for the invasion of Canada, their number would be greatly reduced before they reached Quebec. This diminution would be owing I to the garrisons required for intermediate places that I might previously be subdued ; for although the army I would leave no Eurnpean force behind them, they would leave the inhabitants of Upper Canada behind I them : the calculations on the treason of those . people, he considered utterly groundless and objectionable. —Thus we should have bu t a v er y s m a ll force left to lay siege to Quebec, a place already almost impregnable, and which, io the event of hostilities, would no doubt receive great reinforcements.— With regard to the idea that Britain was fighting the battles of the world, Mr. C. observed, that it she would relinquish her own insolent pretensi'ns, she might then challenge universal sympathy in the pre sent contest ; but not till then. He could not con sent to submit to the kicks and scoffs of Great Britain under the chimerical fear of French stesjugation. He requested gentlemen to look at the tate or desolated Spain. Had she been benefited by her base subser viency to Imperial dictates ? No : If she had nobly asserted her rights, her monarch would not now be groaning in a dungeon. He contended that the true cause of British aggressions was her determination to destroy a growing rival, which she saw, and, sick ened in seeing, in the American States. He hoped and believed no man in the house could be unwilling to go to war, under the apprehension of losing his seat—he trusted that the interest of the country would be pursued, whatever might be the consequences. Nor did he believe the people of the United States would dismiss men from their stations kr honestly performing their duty. Mr. C. expressed his deter mination to support the rights and honour of Ins coun try, even at the hazard of his lite. Mr. WIDOERY and Mr. Bovo spoke in oppositionl. WEDNESDAY, JANUARY 1. Mr. MACON presented to the House, sundry Reso lutions adopted lately by the Legislature of North Carolina, approbatory of the conduct of the General Government, and pledging themselves to give it their support in every measure which the Congress may deem necessary in maintenance of our country's rights. Ordered to lie on the table. The SPEAKER laid before the I-Luse a communi cation from the Secretary of the Navy, containing an account of the application and exruditure of money in that department for the past year. Referred to the Committee of Ways and Means, and ordered to be printed. Mr. Sairere observed, that it had been customary heretofore for the two Houses to pay their respects to the President of the United Stitt, s On the tir.L day of the New Year ; and the hour t*Jr doing this flaying arrived, he moved that the House adjourn. The yeas and nays were called on this motion, they were taken, and the question was lost ;A to 50. The Order of the day b Aug called tor, the House took up the amendments of the Committee of the whole to the Bill from the Senate for raising an ad ditianal military torte. Having come to the amendment, which proposed that the officers for eight regiments only should be appointed, until three-fourths of the men were en listed, Mr. BURWELL moved to amend the amendment, by striking out the worts " eight regiments," and in serting " six. " WRIGIIT hoped this amendment would not prevail. He considered this as a war measure ; and it we were to economize in this way at the commeoce ment of the business, he should not calculate upon our acting with effect. Our country was too impor- 1 tant, and our rights too sacred, to be frittering down measures for their defence in the manner proposed. In proportion, said tie, as the commissioned officers are appointed, will the recruiting of the men progress. These officers will inspire the people, in the several parts of the country from which they may be taken, with a military spirit, which will induce them to en list into the service. He liked the bill better before it had received its present limitation as to the ap-1 pointment of the officers; but as the Committee had agreed thus to amend the bill, he did not wish to stir use subject again. He hoped, however, the reduc tion would not be carried any further. Mr. BURWELL observed, that the gentleman from Maryland had caned upon the House not to consent, from motives of economy, to fritter away our mea sures of defence. If, said Mr. B. the House should determine to appoint all the officers, as at first pro posed, I shall be found ready to go with th at gentle f man and others as far as practicable. But he thought there was a great difference between expending the public money uselessly, and expending it in such a way as to obtain the object in view at the least a;- pence. But the gentleman says, that if all the officer! are appointed at once, the ranks will Ile_much sooner filled, than in the way proposed by thiendment. , How, said Mr. Burwell, can this Ire shewn It la well known that these officers will do nothing to wards raising the men ; and the President can at any time appoint them when they may be wanted. He had not made this motion tip djminish the effect of the bill (tor he believed the men would be gotten as soon without these officers as with them) but in order to make the bill more p.datable to many gentlenleO ‘llo at present object to it on the scprc pt exrucp. If the 25,000 men could be raised by a na l og it.. law, there would be propriety i n appointing th e ; 16 7 cers.at once ; but no ma n cm believe that fear or 6" thousand men will be enlisted in four or fire mo nt h s , P° be wer vem t° te a cl, —cm t i t t e t . and as the President will have s t a e ll i t n h c e on O v ffi en c i e e r n s c , e u c l a ie n ne a v r e it r e i t r h i e nn y deferring the ap ments till that time—and, it is besides, proh a bk that the President will have it in his po wer ' te . make better appointments then than now, h eat having more time in which to make the selection of characters for the purpose. It ough t to be recollected, that one-third •if the expense o f the support of this army, goes to the payment °fits 0 4 • cers, and if they were to be appointed immediately. this expense would be incurred without producuit any benefit to the country. On the subject of ea u . my, Mr. B. said, while we took measures for raisi n , a force adequate to the purposes we bad in view. care ought to be t:tken that no mon e y i s =menu. rily expended. The rais:-.g of funds, would pu t t h e country to some difficulty ; but he had no do u b t a u , expense would be cheerf :11y met by the peopl e , w h o; they see that no unnecessary expense is incurred, After a few words from Mr. Walton., the am t .& inent was can ied, there being fifty-seven member s i t favour of it. Mr. NELSON said, he did not wish tothrow any embarrassment in tile way of raising the army p re , posed; but he believed that it would be tteeens ., at the commencement of the business, to appet tit A the officers now contemplated. It was well keep ; that the efficient officers in raising troops us th . captains and subalterns. The field officers e t no usl until the men are raked, it might be well defer their appointment until that time. He moved, therefore, to amend the bill by adding the kilos:6g prOVIS;01141-- " That so many of the (Akers shall be ee eel f s . sinned at first, and so on from tim e to t i me, u the executive may believe necessary for raising the t om . The SPEAKER declared this motion nnt in MIT a present ; but that when the amendments were gos h through, and the bill was before the House, the gen. tleman from Virginia would have an opportunity introducing it. Another motion was made to adjourn, and the Pas and nays called upon it—Lost by a larger inajott than before. All the amendments having been considered, others introduced, the question recurred 3n ordefieg the bill to be engrossed for a third reading bass: venal members expressing a desire to see the bill, ag amended, printed, before they gave a vote e p ee i toi motion was carried for k to lie on the table,,in order to make way for another to have it printed, wisidi was accordingly made and carried.—Adjottmed DRT.ADFIJI.
