NEW-YORK, nEc. 13. RXTRACT OF A LETTER FROM WASIIIMCTuN. Saturday Evening, llet. 9. General Wilkinson is certainly on his way to this city, and is as certainly in seine measure out of fa vour with the administration. A serious difficulty has arisen between him and the Secretary at War. After all we have heard, it is probable that this is the real reason fur his recall. The Secretary has been trail to express himself in very severe terms upon soine . portions of the late conduct of the General. In the mean time the latter does not advance to the seat of Government, as he did to New-Orleans up on a very celebrated occasion, by " forced marches," but "makes haste slowly." He is for the first time imdisposed, hitherto be has been unaffected by tither fatigue or climate. SENATE OF THE UNITED STATES. On Friday last. Mr. Giles called up his resolu lion, declaring certain expressions used by Mr. Jackson to be highly indecorous and insolent," Itc. The Senate, after hearing Mr. Giles's speech on it, adopted the resolution. The bill authorising the President to send out of the country offending foreign Ministers, passed tts . • third reasrng, and was postponed until Monday.—(FreeinsiesJournal.) Dsc. 15. The French schooner of wa► Ls Fraxchaise, Unit. Chevalier, having on board a ca►go of indigo and specie, which had been stolen from two Spanish schooners, has been captured by the United States gno-vessel, No. tiS. Lieut. Dexter, and carried into New Orleans, for a breach of the third section of the non-intercourse law.—A fresh proof of partiality to France ! ritILADIMPHIA, DEC. 9. The party which is called Ministerialists at - the city of Washington, appear to be at a loss what plan to propose. or what cnurse to steer, with re spect to our foreign relations. The opposite ',tidy, who undoubtedly possess most talents, but are ex cluded from Cabiaet confidence, observe a pro foOnd silence on the subject ; and prudently too, because they know that any 44 alternative" which they might suggest, however wise and just. would meet the united hostility of the Ministerialists. Hence, it is most probable, public affairs will con tinue in their present posture for some length of time. Any favourable alteration in our relations with foreign powers is very remote. It was reported at Washington, that Mr. Giles would soon lay before . the Senate, the leading pro- positions which are to occupy the attention of the present session. These, it was rumoured, would be of as hostile chewier. both to France and Great Britain. Snme doubts have been expressed whether Mr. Ritirdo:ph will attend the present session. Our in formation from Washington goes no further than to My. that he continued somewhat indisposed, at his seat in Virginia. It is probable that his indis position is the only cause of his present absence. DEC. 11. Captain Chatty reports, that the City of St. bo mingn is now under the command of the Spaniards, the fi•itish haring entirely left it ; that American priabiee having poured in from the other Weeds, was low ; flour at eight dollars; and other articles in pmportinn.—That the Spaniards, as well as the rest of the Island, seemed in an undisturbed state. Yesterday arrived ship Hosusak, Clements, fifty days from Loadnn•terry, with fifty or sixty passen gers. nn her possiege she fell in with the Briti►h slnop of war Atingle, the Captain of which ordered n few of the young men to come on board his ship, to learn the use of artillery and small arms. NOSTON, DE,C. 1. We were last evening hymned with extracts from Halifax Pacers to the 13th ult. They contain the •;we h of Governor Provost, at the commence ment of a session of the I.egislature. It represents the colony ss in a flourirhing state, and its militia as on a respectable footing. The schooner Three Sisters. which was lately piratically run away with, after murder had lee s) committed on board, as recently advertised in the American Papers, has been taken at Newfound by the British schooner Clark, Lieutenant Bury, and returned to lialitax. Jordan and his wife had been committed to prison. Kelly escaped. DIR. GALL% rINI REPORT. In olscdsence to the directions of the Act supple- mentary to the Act entitled, " An Act to emabltsh the Treasury Drpattonent," the Secretary of the Tress'sty reopectf-tlly submit, the following Re port and Estimates 'Vie datum ow itairhatalise sad towage, sine% stencil donne the rite Zito;, aatottatel. after dettuctiag the 'apnoea et collort•un. t 0.... bieb for *beat ores is taut on account us' re•axportatims ... • t0,e67,0pt • Left, tee the . r►.e se seemed deltas that year ttkokrt,4s7 Ike 'wee &tiro. dense die ye./ ISO., ensieleitd, afire Andaman dee:peeves cieeleesies, .

From the retires already received for the three first quarters of this present year, and from the ge tisral knowledge of the importations made during the two last mouths, it is believed, that the gross amount of duties ou tnercharidize, imported dur ing the whole year, will, after deducting the ex penses of collection, amount to about 10,000,000 of dollars. But u the debentures issued on account of re exportations (principally of colonial produce) will amount to about 3,500.000 dollars, the net revenue, accrued during the year NO% cannot be estimated at more than six millions and a half. It appears, by the statement (C) that the sales of public Loath bare, during the year ending on the 30th September, 1809, amounted to 1.13,000 acres; and the payments by purchasers to near 500,000 dollars. The proceeds of sales i.i the Mississippi territory being, after deducting the surveying and other iocidental expenses, appropriated, in the first place, to the payment of a surf of 1,250.000 dol lars ,to the State of Georgia, are distinctly Stated. It appears by the statement (U) that the payments on account of the principal of the public debt, have, during the same period, amounted to near 6,730,000 dollars, the reimbursement of the eight per cent. stock having taken place on the Ist of January last. But the aggregate of paymeateen account of principal and interest will not, for the two years, 1808 and 1809, exceed the sum of sixteen millions of dollari appropriated by law. • The same statement 'hews, that about 34,799,000 dollars of the principal of the debt have been reim bursed during the eight years and a half commen. cing on the Ist of April, 1801, and ending on the 30th September, 1809: exclusively of more than six millions of dollar.. paid in conformity with the provisions of the Convention of Great Britain. and • of the Louisiana Convention.

But should that measure be adopted, it *null not, on account of the terms of credit alloie t d the payment of duties, supersede the necessity o f a loan fur the service of the year 1810, Co mensurute with the extent of those establ:s',. ments, and with the appropriations whielt be made fur their support by Congress. No pre. cise hula is suggested, since this must vary accuid, ing to the plans which may be adopted in tient to foreign nations, and will particularly ‘!., pend an the decision of Cant-ties, on the questi li of war or peace. It is sufficient to state, that tl the actual expenditure of the year lei°, fur e lf military and sacral purposes, should be estinial-d at the same sum which oas disbursed by the Tit:, sury for these objects, during the year ending fis the Seth September, iBuj, and exceeding, as ab o ve stated, six millions of dollars, the deficiency, at . cording to the preceding estimates, would slued to three millions; on which supposition it wou4 seem prudent, in order to provide• against any dr ficiency in the receipts, beyond what has been est.. mated, to authorise a loan of four milieus of dollais. —ln the event of war, the necessity of renderibe efficient, and of calling for that purpose into ache s all the resources of the country, is to.) obvious to re. quire any comment.

For the support of public credit, the basis on whielt rests the practicability of obtaining loans on res. sonable terms, it appears necessary that the revenue should, ii the meanwhile. be equal to the iutrrest on the public debt, including that on the new Immo, and to All the cuirent expenses of Going , .ment, calculated on a peace establishment, or, far the preseal r , to gloat eight millions of dollars.
