THURSDAY, *SEPTEMBER 29, 1814. tinNAELmAs-D.4.--Holiday at the Bank and Stock Exchange. The paragraph which appeared this morning in a respectable Morning Paper, that the CIANCIILLOR of the Excu retie a had mak communication to the Governor and Deputy-Governor of the Bank of England, stating, that it was not the intention of Government to fund before the spring, has had a great effect upon Omnium, which opened at 4 per cent. dis. and rose to 2 per cent. is. and Consols 6411 to 65, remaining at one o'cloca at 64;{. — Although we have every reason to believe that in point of fact, the above is correct, yet we knew that no communication has to a., moment been made to the Bank, and it must therefore have , a private conversation between Mr. VANSITTART, and the Governors of the Bank. To-day we continue our selections froth the Atte rican Papers which reached us yesterday. They fully equal their predecessors in exciting the feelings of derisicn and contempt which are now pretty general against the miserable creatures who have bearded the lion in kis den. Pablic meetings are every where held—Resolutions, full of sound and fury, are uni formly voted; but in the hour of trial there is a la mentable lack both of courage and of numbers to support these fiery measures. At New York, for instance, where a party of volunteers from an inland town recently arrived to tender their services, the patriots of that city churlishly refused to issue rations or to afford quarters to these ignorant and misled jacibint, aad they were obliged to return half fa. Wished to their own ore-sides. la . thort the people are heartless in the contest row and then a sturdy villain slims his head, and 'bouts for MADISON and Independence, but lie meets 'with ne encouragement, and the people prefer peace and tranquility. If such a worthless pretender ever could enjoy popularity beyond me chimney-corner of an ale-house, it is now fled ; and amid all their bow !jugs for the catastrophe at Washington, not a whisper of solicitude is heard for the safety of the Chief of the State.' How could such an idiot expect the duration of his fame ?—he has continued to send army after army to Periih in Canada, while the lEqui and Volsci were thundering at the gates of the Capital—then he sent Negotiators to Europe, not with the view of making peace with England, but for the dark and malignant purpose of stirring up a !naritirne confederacy against %er. than time Washington is burnt, and suddenly bisncophants discover that it is fitting t h at men en 'tiled as soldiers should learn the military exereise Reek there is a striking resemblance between the last glitiamerings of BONAPARTE'S feverish career and the cortirulsive agonies of his fellow-fugitive the Ame rican President : bred in the same school, and hold. ing all civilized institutions in utter abhorrence, they first atteot all their impotent rage against foreign nations t and afterwards, when baffled, turn round to prey upon the Vitals of the country which has been duped by them. Such wretches would rather see the *Wake' of America or of France desolated by cue I:leVbering mass of flame, than consent to give trinitullity to the world upon secure and honoarable terms ! The people of the United States are now completely I left to themselves, and every petty town is distracted by various parties—the most numerous party ij that of the 4uiescents. Now and then an effort is made, it is true, to make As thew of resistance, but it va- Sishea istnAbia , air, after a few pais like the sub joined ss Miniver."

After descanting on the j' great utility of tar barrels for giving notice of the approach of an enemy, and of rum b.srrels for in spiring courage, thi inhabitants of Roxburgh, a small town in lytastachilsett's, thus prbcced : 4 ' The taputtlis of Infantry will see that eye ry soldiex is well armed and equipped, and; his cartridge box at all times filled with the requitite number of rolinas.

A eanst• cruel instance of the tyranny and depre dations the Barbary Corsairs are in the daily habit of committlng with impunity, has just been communi cated to its from Gibraltar : " A Sisedisli galliot, the Ann and Julia, Captain Lassen, sailed on the 26th June last from Lisbon, bound to Bourdeaux. The vessel had been taken up and laden with an English cargo by a respectable mercantile house of Liverpool, one of the partners being on board ; and all the passengers were English, among whom were two ladies, with a young girl, the daughter of one of them, and a female servant. , The same night, at the mouth of the Tagus., the ves sel was boarded by the crew of the Algerine frigate la Lionne, who robbed both the Captain and passen gers of their provisions. The rigs they threw over board, the sheep they killed for ;heir own use, and the bandiui were only prevented from plundering the passengers' trunks by the officer who was at their head. The vessel was taken to Algiers, where they arrived on the 17th of the passengers being re- Idnced to the most severe distress by want of food. They eipected at least to he supplied with previsions there, instead of which, they were ordered off at a few hours' notice. They wroteio the English Con sul, but he was at his country house, and did not come near them. The Swedish Consul was ex ' tremely acthe in their service, and sent on board a few articles from his own table, for their immediate . relief; but they were not allowed to lay in a 'cock, and were becalmed on their voyage to Gibraltar, ' where they did not arrive till the 29th July, almost famished by want of food i and there they were put under quarantine, on account of having touched at Algiers. While there, they saw that all the other Swedish vessels, and a Dutchman, had been corn• pletely gutted, and the crews sent ashore to slavery. They only avoided the same treatment because. the cargo end passengers were English./ . ';TODANAL .1 an EXCEIR - $lOl 4 l to IN A SERIES b 1 LETTERS; CONTALIiIiGi REMARKS MORAL, HISTORICAL, TOPOGRA• PIIICAL, ETC. LETTER I. Therm ISIS. REAR SIR—As you expressed a desire that I should communicate to you, from time to time, something like a history of my travels in this country, I now sit down with pleasure to the undertaking : and though I cannot promise you much novelty or entertainment, I shall endeavour, as far as I can, to preserve truth in the narrative, which I am now to lay before you. Without stopping to inquire whether I am one who travel for profit, for pleasure, cut of a laudable, or an idle curiosity, I shall commence my journal by saying, that I embarked at Newhaven, on the coast of Sussex, the day before yesterday, for Dioppe, where we arrived early the next morning. I should first say, that my portmanteau was taken to the cus tom-house to be examined before embarkation, and the sum of four shillings was called for in con , :?.- (pence : this demand was, however, moderated to three shillings afterwards, which I have rt , ) dr.uht is very proper; but I could not clearly understand, from any of the answers given by the custom-house officer, to what fund this money was to be applied, nor under what special authority it was exacted from all the passengers, forty or fifty in number; all I c , aild learn was, that tha charge was customary, which, I believe, is true. I chose to go by the way of Dieppe for several reasons : one was, because a considerable distance is saved in land-travelling, on both sides of the water, if the traveller intends to visit Paris. Another reason weighed with me, which was the promise of seeing; a rich and beautiful country in journeying through Normandy, in which ex;ectati.aa I was nit disap pointed. Tile obj;:c;ions against this passage front Sussex ere first, the chilic•fity and expens.: of gAring ua board the packet-boats off Brighton, par:acid-ray in bowing weath:r, as they lie at a consid2rahle dis tance from the shore; and whether embark:.-:;, or disembarking, you are liable to be grossly i m pose,' upon in the charge made by the waterne2 ; and, sides, it not uafrequently happens, that tile pasen gets a:e drenched is salt-water iu the boat, from the violence of the surf beating over it. This objLecion may be obviated, if the traveller embarks at haven, nine or ten miles to the eastward, wtiece there is a very .fine vessel sails every Tuesday. Here ' there is a ape creek, and you may step ou board ft otn the wharf, and be at sea in a very short time.— Another.objection is the length of the passage, the • distance from !Sussex to Dieppe being about 70 iniks; whereas from Dover. to Calais, or Amlogne„, it is only from 9.4 to :46„ and wher e the pasatge o: course must be always. more certain. Those who are in great dread of that almost unavoidable evil, sea,.izic ness, will prefer going by Calais, where you tray arrive in less than three hours, from Doves, if the wind and tide be favourable. it is, in general, tiu necessary • to lay in any stock el provisions for Ike. passage, for nine. persons out of lets make no use of thaw. Perhaps a little biscuit, ,and a slice of tongue or so, are all that can be required, even by those s . vii . o are kast apt to become sick. Tires: %situ are partial to spirits, may take a little good kr InAy %%jilt them. We arrived at Dieppe very early in the morning, hot I cannot quit the subject of the packet without stating, that in obi- . vessel there were eighteen beds, very comfortably fitted up, and with convenitscies ; but, to our surprise, we were incorn:.:d that the uppei bil•ths were calculated to hold t aro per sons, in case of necessity, and we were much cre.vded with . numbeis on board. The fare is raised :o two guineas a-head, Without finding any thing : the fare to Calais is halt a-euinea ; and it is customary to give the steward a stilling each- When we landed at. Dieppe, it was too early for. the Custom - house, which did not •open till nine o'clock. At this time the luggage was taken to the, Custom-house to be searched. This was done with out any demand for money, as on the English side of the water. All I had to pay was a few per.ce for porterage; and here, as in England, there is no lack of porters on the wharfs, and if you are not on your guard, you will be equally liable to have as many porters to pay as you have parcels to carry. Before leaving . England, l had provided myself with a passport from the Secretary of State's Office, for which the sum of £2.75. was paid. This is thee best kind of security; but those who choose it may receive passports from The French Ambassador in Lots don, for which I have heard only eight or ten shillings is paid. Why there is such a wide differrace in point hf expense for a passport, I most leave others to et plain. There is another kind of passport which may be obtained from the Mayor of any of 'the principal French seaports at a ti ifiing expense, and will answer the ourpose well; but I would recommend that the two, last-mentioned passports be sent to be countersigned by the French Minister (Prince Berteventn) at Paris, to prevent any trouble or interruption in j,iurteyir,g beyond Paris. For this counter signature the charge is ten franks. Dieppe is far from being nn insignificant place. It is built cease to the sea, and you approach it by a winding creek, with stone piers, which lead into the• bason, where there is a good quay, and -a very safe harbour. A small river runs into it. The streets of, Dieppe are generally narrow, but not so much so as those of Rouen and other places; aid there are a' number of good houses, but the town is manifestly not so Rourishing as it has been of old, from the de cay of trade and manufactures. It contains -about i 20,000 inhabitants. The houses are well built, and generally three stories in height ; but many are to bad repair, aid some large ones empty. In particu lar, I observed a large quadrangular pile of buildin:r nearly unoccupied, which had been formerly a great tobacco manufactory, and which in the year 170 employed 200 hands. There is a large high ancient castle built on the steep cliff on the south side of the town, which, com manding the town and port,, must have been once formidable. Dieppe supplies Paris with. a great deal of fish, which is sent up by post-carts. I saw a great quan. tity landed, and asked the prices,.whic . . I considered moderate.,Skate was in greatest abundance : a large skate may he had, for a frank, or a frank and a half, and other fish in proportion. Fowl,Pare fronftwo to four franks a couple.

Dieppe was bombarded by the English in the year 1 1694, and some damage d o ne to the tosser of the church of St. Jaques.' 'There are three churches— two in the town, and one in the Polet Ur FaushoOrg• The Fauxblurg is populous and dirty. The churches are hAntl:ome, hut they are not so clean and neat in side as the churches in England; and they appear to have been s'ript of some ut their valuables during the revo:utionary period: On the sea face of the town there is an estensies mole.
