The National Inte!tip:neer, by yesterday's mail, coinaiks Mr. It us. .e."s account of a conversation with Lord Cast lercAeh on the.lsth nt beptember. The British Minister doubted the, kulticicncy of the powers ut Mr. R.,—considered any arrangement as a substittre tor the tn.isiilig wode of taking Lnglish seamen as almost hopeless, —re. marked on the great sensibility of the people of England on the suit. jcct ; and observed, that great hypes were entertained of the favour able ellbct at IVastiiugton ot the intelligence of the revocation of the Orders an Council. Mr, Ft tissell flattered himself that an arrar!,e.. :neat was practicable, and contended for the sufficiency ot his au thority Mr. R ussel 1 then proceeds " I finally olii:rctl, in order to alslvcr at once all the observations and inquiries ut Lord - Ce,ticreagli, that the proposed unzlerstanding should be expressed' in the most general terms—that the laws, to take clKct On !h.! discontinuance of the practice of impressmont. should prol i ibit the emplo)wient of the stifijr!cts or citizens of the one State. ext-.. , itting suck only as had already been naturalized on. board . t he publi.: or private ships of the-other—thus removing any objection the miLitt hare been raised with regard to the Willie clrect of tif thp lOrmal renunciation of any pretended right. With regard to blockades, I proposed to follow the same course, and only to air. c :hat none should be instituted by t ith er p art y watch were nut contormable to the acknowledged law of natillis—lcaving the defini tion ut such blockades, And all other details, to be nettled by the Cemmissioners in the definitive treaty. " I was dinar pointed awl grieved to find - that these propOsiiiens, Moderate and liberal irs tlit!y were, should be treated in a in - nincr wnich forbad me to eltkect their acceptance. I was even asked by Ntr. Hamilton, if the Uniied States w..thd deliver u British seamen who might be naturalize' in America shocked at this demand, I mildly reolied that sod) a proc, he tliv,raceful to Amesica, without being useful .to that the habits of s•;amen w re so peculiarly unaccommoda no one would go through the long probation required b: dine the citizen of a country where he could not pursue sional occupations; and that not to employ him in this w, virtually to surrender him to Great Britain. " I was disposeii to believe, however, that a reciproc; meat might be made by hliving up deserters from public THE MAIN ARMY.—The army under the Commaiw Gen.

Whether they will attempt to cross at mule into territory, or halt uron the frnntiers, is INICCItIin. In tit however„some partial contests will probibb. occur.
