Domingo to the Iltitilb Adiniral, com manding on the Jamaica Ration. The' channel by which this intelligence was re. ceived appeared fu circuitous, that but little credit was attached to it. It has however been in fume degree corroborated by accounts which have reached us this morning. The American brig Mary Louifa, from Virginia, with tobacco, bound for Havre, but informed of the blockade of that harbour by Iris. (hip Tm vainsata, has arrived at Falmouth. Seven French paffengers, lately mer chants in St. Domingo, were ott board this veffel.— They report, that the Bland was nearly evacuated by 'the French torces, when they left it, and that at Cape Nichola Mule they were almoll denitute of pro vilions, having' hardly any thing to fuball on but boric fle(b.

On the reported mediation of Ruffia, the Hamlursh Cirrv;oondenter: of the 7th October has the following paragraph : '"'it is now known, that the new propofition; for Peace which were made in London by the Est PERO& of RUSSIA and the FIRST CONSUL, at the tame time, have not been accepted by the King of England, as an armifliee was propfed." An arnriflice! Hnw could this country agree to any proinfal of the kind. Indeed, 'in the prflint . fitaation of %fairs, it is importable lot our Government to enter into any negotiation. Fran& has threat ened to dietate to Britain, in London itfill; the terms of peace ; and is now bufy in preparing the means for fending over our limp Le:Adam—While there preparations continue, it would be difgrace ful to this country, to Mien to any propofals for a treaty or an armillke: It 'would be telling the enemy " run threats of invation have (truck us with fo much terror, that we are glad to Wien to your proporal !" No. The Corfican has threate.ied to in vade us, and he muff eith-:r abandon his projeet as openly as he adopted it, or he mull make his boalled attempt. Till he do the one or the other, it would be madnels to think, that Min: tiers could Mien to any propofition that would tend to tufpend the prepara tions that have been made for our defence, or leave it doubtful, whether the threat of the enemy was the caufe of the war being terminated.—A peace obtain ed under fuels ambiguous circumlances, would not be fecure for a tingle month ; and on any future occa fion of a fimilar kind, France would naturally fay, " I have only to hold out the threat of invafion to Great Britain, and I am fhre I flrall obtain my own terms." Let us Phew Box•raara that he cannot invade us ; or that if he attempts invalion he will experience both defeat and difgrace, and we may chez .
