Ame rican vessels for that ptirposet - To form an idea of the value of the eat-goes, it is sufficient to say, that he has already paid 20,000 dol lars for the transport of a single one of these cargoes. Another advantage which he detives front the Ko diack islanders is, that he lets out boats on hire to American Captains, which are rowed by thew people . and commanded by Russians, and are sent out to the coast of California to catch sea otter s. A ship of 250 tons burthen must. have • fifty such boats, which are narrow and long, made of Skins and hoops of casks, and can contam three men. . All these undertakings are done in the night: eget) , thing remains on hoard the American ship, till they have arrived at the place for' catching the sea otters: If the air is calm, the boats are let into the sea to stir: prise the sea otters, which sleep with their heads altave water. They are attacked with advantage in the mo ment when they collect in crowds as they are accus tomed to pursue their food. These chases they make in the greatest order. Besides the implements for the hunting, the Indians carry two knives. Numerous as they are, they never commit the least disorder, or ei•er attempt to make themselves masters of the'vessel: The Captain chiefly owes this security to the custom of taking a female Indian of rank on board, whose presence keeps them all in awe, and whose commands they. obey with the most unlimited respect; As, besides this, the Indians do not understand any of the manceuvres, they would, even if they h.-td made themselves masters of the ship, not know where to steer her to. While they are on board, they ate fed with train oil and a kind of berries, which are taken in casks froth Norkfolk Sound: When the chase is about to begib, the Indians divide them selves into three divisions: each consisting of fifteen beats, is accompanied by a sixteenth, which carries . two Indians arid a Russian Officer. This last keeps within the half circle. Every Indian carries with him his bow, quiver, and lance. As soon as they have uppvoached the otters near enough, evei y one discharges his arrow, but each has a particular mark that it may be !mown again. It is taken for granted, that the arrow which is neatest the animal's organs of hearing has killed it. The Officer counts the sea otters killed by each hunter. After their return, the Governer tries to animate them by -raises to still greater efforts every one receives imple ments for hutting, tobacco, rum, coarse woollen cloths, and other things for use and ornittnent. ac- • cording as they have shewn their skill and zeal.— The produce of the chase is divided in the same manner, half of which falls to the Governor for lend- in g the boats. The most important settlement Of the United States is ten degrees more southward, on the banks Of the Columbia. Two Captains from Roston ac quired of the natives, some years ago, a leng extent of coast, by virtue of a contract, which is still in the hands of several Merchants in Bciston. Soon after this, several agents to the American North West Company went from New York to settle there, under the direction of the .President, Mr. Aster, and soon after began a very good trade with the English North West Company in. Canada, which had for a long lime carried on a trade in furs. About this time, the Americans destroyed the Bri , tish fleet in the Pacific Ocean, which was employed in the whale fishery. But Captain Porter, who had prbposed this undertaking, was made prisoner on board the Exeter, by •the English: Not satisfied with this, they sent several small vessels to destroy all the American trading magazines on the Said. wich Islands, and at the mouth of the Columbia. But the Americans en the Columbia, informed of these intentions, by their friends the Canadians, who had already several settlements on that riv€r, quickly sold their establishments to them, and all the maga tiries which were there; so that the English ships, on their arrival, found that there was nothing► to rim. - der, as every thing had become the property of Eng lish subjects. The natives, however, were not pleased with this convention : they affirmed, that it was ne4 cessaty for them to have as many Ships as possible in the Columbia, as the ♦alue of their fur goods in the Chinese trade was thus increased. Since this time, the United States have tried to, form eew settlemmts in these parts, and the English look With a.jealous eye on their commercial activity, as well as that of the Russians. In reality, the Russian settlements in crease wonderfully in the east of Asia, as well as in the west of America. They have followed more li beral principles than they did in Kamtschatka and the adjacent islands: It i& certainly their letention to make ihemselves masters, as ankh as possible, of the trade of the North-west of America, and to draw over to their side the fishermen and bunters of these parts, to be at last able to supply the Chinese market exclusively with furs. Without doubt the Itusians already injure the Americans ; and as the goods in the Chinese ports become more rare and more in demand, quarrels between the merchants of these two nations seem unavoidable; and it will probablT be decided"without the knowledge and consent .of their Governments, .who shall yield to the other in this contest. The Ituseians have made a regular communication over Asia, between America and Europe.' From Edgccombe, in the Norfolk Sound, ships sail to Ochotsk, from thence the road goes to Jakutsk, up the Lena to Kiransic, or Katschinsk, and then over land from Irkutsk, Tomsk, Tobolsk, Tjumen, Moscow, to Sc. Petersburgh, which is a distance of about 6520 English miles. If we may give credit to The NeteYork Spectator of the 26th of February, Russia has resigned to the United States all its claims to the countries on the coast of the Northwest of America which Be to the south of 56 deg. of northern latitude, and Leglatid had signed thit treaty for the time, when the ten years fixed in the last Convention on this country shall be expired : so that the Uni!ed.Si;ue so f Ame rica will possess in future an extent of 13 degrees of .latitude upon the Ocean.-;-;fete Aferstiiy Mag.

The Russian settlements extend from Kamtschatka to the North-West Coast of America, where the 'Rus sians possess, in 'Norfolk Sound, a fortress, with a hundred pieces of heavy artillery. Since 1813 they extended 500 miles beyond the river Columbia along the coast, and settled in Bodega, in 38 deg. 20 min. north latitude, and distant only 30 miles from the farthest Spanish settlement in California. IBodeTa has a good soil, and all the advantages de sirable for trade. This encroachment on the Ame rican Continent is the effect of Russia's gigantic power. Peter the Great bean this plan, Catherine pursued it, and the present Lmperor executes it with great ardour. During these three reigns, the Rus sian Empire has extended itself from the North of Asia, has passed Behring's Straits, and obtained firm footing in North America. A good road has been made from St. Petersburgh to Kamtschatka ; ves sels, loaded with furs, sail annually from the North- West Coast of America, round the Cape of Good Hope, and unload their rich cargoes in the Gulf of Finland ; and while the United States of America in vain exert themselves to gain an insecure settlement ,in the Mediterranean, Alexander employs himself on the more certain plan of making himself master of the Peninsula of California, by viatue of the cession made to him by Spain of its claims on the North- West Coast of America. According to The North American Review, the Russian settlement in Norfolk Sound was founded in the 57th degree of northern latitude, after a long and desperate resistance made by the natives in the year 1792, by a merchant of the name of Baranoff. The natives had entrenched themselves in a fort, which was built in the form of a half moon, and well fortified with•abattis, so that the Russians can nonaded it in vain, while the savages, who knew very well how to use their fire-arms, took aim at them through openings dexterously made in the fortress. The place was at last taken by storm, and Baranoff is at present Governor of the settlement, consisting of about 600 colonists. The gradual arrival of more Russians was succeeded by the total subjection of the natives. The Russians, in all the settlements which they make on Amertcan ground; are torn manded by very skilful military and civil Officers. All is on a great scale, and is liberally supported. Ilere are several young sea Officers of the first fa milies, who have received a splendid, and, in these parts, rare education. In the English and North American Settlements, on the contrary, commercial speculation is the only motive ; they have only the advantages of the moment before their eyes, and people there are only soldiers out of necessity. With the Russians all bears the stamp of superior educa tion; great and penetrating views seem to direct their plans, and promote their success. Already now the Russian American Fur Company, over which Mr. liaranoff presides with great wisdom, gives the share•holders a dividend of fifteen per cent, and what an increase is there annually in all the Russian ports in those countries, in the magazines of goods, ship building. and all means of security and luxury: Mr. 13aranotf employs the Russians settled in Norfolk 'Sound, and the natives, in the cbace of sea otters and sturgeons. • Sc,metimes. he sends these articles di rectly to the Chinese m arket, and at other timeS, lex changes them with American. ships for necessary things for the colonists. These, as well as his troops. of the line, consist of. Russians and natives, who are taught to bear arms after the Russian fashion. All the women of the colony are natives of Kodiack ; there are no Russian women, and but a very few cep i rt , coloured Ettrotiean American Mestizes. lie Governor does not make use of his own ships On TUESDAY, the 11th of JANUARY.

With a detailed Narrative of the Political Events connected with those memorable Conflicts, drawn up from the first Authoriaes, and dedicated to the Duke. By WILLIAM MUDFORD, Esq. Illustrated by numerous public and private Official Documents, and cther Papers, hitherto unpublished, comnrunicated by Officers of the highest distinction. In this important undertaking, no exertion has been spared to produce a raernorlal of the exploits of our gallant country men truly worthy of them ; to transmit to posterity a record, which may be consulted with conscious exultation—which the future histellan, who shall recount these immortal deeds, may ex.:mine with confidence—arid which the living who partook of all the toils, tae dangers, and the glories of them, may turn to as the authentic monument of their own exploits. The Plates illustrate not merely the field of battle, but all the intermediate country from Brussels to Charleroi, proceed itig in regular succession; so that the Reader may, as it were, actually walk over the ground which our Army trod, from the moment it quitted Brussels till the Battle of Waterloo was fought. They form, in a mariner, one vast picture, so concate nated throughout, t hat what appears in persprctive in the fait Plate is represented in the foreground of the second, and so through the whole series. To military men, and especially to those who were In the battle, these Graphic Illustrations must be peculiarly valuable and interesting, as they will be enabled to ascertain almost the very spots where themselves stooda—where their brave corn• Fades were killed or wounded—where they sustained the aho:lt of the enemy—where they repelled his onset—and where they at last so gloriously conquered.
