TO LORD CASTLEREAGH. 44 MY LORD-.-It is only necessary, I trust, to call the attention of your Lordship to a review of the conduct of the Government of the United States, to prove incontrovertibly its unceasing anxiety to main tain the relations of peace and friendship with Great Britain. Its patience in suffering the many wrongs which it has received, and its perseverance in endea• vouring ; by amicable means, to obtain redress, are known to the world. Despairing at length of re ceiving this redress from the British Government, to which it had so often applied in vain, and feeling that a further forbearance would be a virtual surren der of the interests and rights essential to the pro sperity and independence of the nation confided to its protection, it has been compelled to discharge its high duty by an appeal to arms. While, however, it regards this course as the only one which remained for it to pursue with a hope of preserving any por tion of that kind of character, which constitutes the vital strength of every nation, yet it is still willing to give anodicr proof of the spirit which has uni formly distinguished its proceedings, by seeking to arrest, on terms consistent with justice and honour, the calamities of war. It has therefore authorised me to stipulate with his Britannic Majesty's Govern• ment, an armistice, to commence at or before the expiration of sixty days after the signature of the in. strument providing for it, on condition that the Or ders in Council be repealed, and no illegal blockades . , to be substituted for them, and that orders be im mediately given to discontinue the impressment of persons from American vessels, and to restore the citizens of the United States already impressed ; it being moreover well understood that the British Go vernment will assent to enter into definitive arrange ments as soon as may be, on these and every other difference, by a Treaty to be concluded either at London or Washington, as on an impartial conside ration of existing circumstances shall be deemed most expedient. " As an inducement to Great Britain to discontinue the, practice of impressment from American vessels, I am authorised to give assurance, that a law shall be passed (to be reciprocal) to prohibit the employ ment of British seamen in the public or commercia I service of the United States. " It is sincerely believed, that such an arrangement ~~ per' bay ywohn:gl:ultthocesatnoobbbieeedeteiffetneoct:3luelualml°ybbisectainueread 114 s ratice seeuri of imngprteossGmrenntt, ado' acise of that ' ii Britainv/ould prove wore mmoerne, than a th ei e on p so derogatory to the sovereign attributes of the United 44 I have the honour to be, Sir -- States, and so incompatible with the personal rights with much regret, of their citizens. s (Signed) -e serv ant, " Your Lordship will nbt be surprised that I have i J.

" As soon as there was reason to apprehend that Mr. Foster's functions might have ceased in America, and that he might have been obliged to withdraw himself in consequence of war being declared, from the United States, before the above-mentioned Order of the 23d June, and the instructions consequent -thereupon, could have reached him, measures were taken for authorising the British Admiral on the American station, to propose to the United States an immediate and reciprocal revocation of all hostile orders, with the tender of giving full effect, in the event of hostilities being discontinued, to the provi sions of the said order, upon conditions therein spec i fled. .o them see our brave army, destined, at the approach of winter, to the cold region of Canada, without blankets, and with no warmer clothing than a linen hunting-shirt, and then decide whether they are willing to continue in poser an Administration so improvident and unfeeling. (BY EXPRESS.) His Excellency Governor Shelby yesterdaT, at noon, received a letter and the following nand.bill from General Harrison, by which it appears that be had just received dispatches from the War Depart ment, appointing him to the command of all the troops which have been called into the service frors the Western States. He will, of course, again take the command of the North Western Army, and it it expected will immediately adopt the most efficiest measures to regain Detroit and proceed into Upper Canada. " From this statement you will perceive that the view you have taken of this part of the subject is incorrect, and that in the present state of the relations between the two countries, the operation of the order of the 23d of June, can only be defeated by a refusal on the part of your Government to desist from hos tilities, or to comply with the conditions expressed in the said order. 44 Under the circumstances of your having no powers to negotiate, I must decline entering into a detailed discussion of the propositions which you have been directed to bring forward. 46 I cannot, however, refrain, on one single point, from expressing my surprise—namely, that as a con dition, preliminary even to a suspension of hostilities, the Government of the United States should have thought fit to demand, that the British Government should desist from its ancient and accustomed prac tice of impressing British seamen from the merchant ships of a foreign State, simply on the assurance that a law shall hereafter be passed, to prohibit the em ployment of British seamen in the public or commer cial service of that State. " The British Government now, as heretofore, is ready to receive from the Government of the United States, and amicably to discusss any proposition which professes to have in view either to check abuse in exercise of the practice of impressment, or to ac complish, by means less liable to vexation, the objet for which impressment has hitherto been found necessary ; but they cannot consent to suspend the exercise of a right upon which the naval strength of the empire mainly depends, until they are fully con ♦inced, that means can_ be devised, and will be TO THE PEOPLE OF KENTUCKY. " Head quarters, Piqua, Sept SS. 1( Fellow Citizens—The Executive of your States acting, as was believed, in unison with your wishes, conferred on me the command of that part of the quota of militia which was destined to relieve De troit ; and the General Government has confirmed and extended my command to all the troops which have been called into service from the Wester!! States. Upon the point of leading these brave meninto a rigorous northern climate, I discover that many of them are without blankets, and much the g reater part of them totally destitute of every article of Win ter clothing. It is impracticable to procure the ar ticles necessary for them from the stores ; and there is no alternative but in your feeling and patriotism! a contribution of articles, which will not be felt by you, will enable your soldiers to withstand the Imes northern blasts with as much fortitude as they will the assaults of the enemy. Can any patriot sleep easy in his bed of dowry when he reflects upon the situation of a sentinel, exposed to the cold of a win ter's night in Canada in a linen hunting.shirt ? Will the amiable fair sex suffer their brave defenders to be mutilated by the frost for the want of mittens and socks, which they can with so little exertion prom. , them ! I trust that I know my fair countrywomen too well to believe that this appeal to their Petri°' tism will be ineffectual I Blankets, overalls, round about-jackets, shoes, socks, aid mittens; are the arti cles wanted. Colonel Thomas Buford, Depot!' Commissary General, will provide tor the transpor tation of the articles, and will pay tor the blantets and shoes, should it be required.
