It is improved by that p , but those who have been the most stre nuous in attacking the President for the pusillanimi ty of N . ) ing money to Prance, and purchasing every thing in ,Ipute, are the loudest on this occasion. The r.ght of visit is not questioned ; but it is Crtll tended - that the American vessel was so clearly within tae American jatrisdierirm, that there cculd be no tight to fire at or bring her to. Ou this ground the injury is put. As yet, Lowever, we have only a very prejudiced statement, and the in temter,mee of the orimmeraacies must lead us to guestnan the accuracy of the Gas. A few days aga the boats of the Qarder frigate boarded and captured three 'vessels in the port of Norden, belonging to Prussia, abam elev e n mil es North of Embden.
