But the punishment of Prince ikit.n:s6g was only 'beginning ; and as his private pay from BUONAPARTE .!dust by this time be stop!lell, we may look for a few more generous concessions on his part. A British fleet of 13 sail had also appeared in the Potomac ; and a squad:Om destined hit the at tack of Baltimore was understood to be only otke day's sail from that town. The American Ge neral who commanded at Baltimore had, in con sequence, exhibited symptoms of great alarm.--- Their _dread was no less at Sachet's Harbour; and we rejoice to find, that from the vigorous measures adopted by our Government, this salutary dread is not destitute of excellent foundation. I3oth on Lakes Champlain and Ontario, as will be seen from oar extracts, the greatest exertions have been used to prepare a naval force adequate to the establishment of Britain's superiority in these 'inland seas. The lateit politkal news from, Congress fur nishes us with the flimsy apology" for continued submission to Gallic insult on the part of Ame rica. The Correspondence of Mr, CanuFtllM, laid before the Legislature, is one of the weakest and most unsatisfaCtory productions we ever saw laid down.as the apology for mean and truckling sub serviency to one*Country, while towards another the tope held is at once arrogant, offensive, and unjust. An American Paper thus notices the Frenebified correspondence : "On the IGth inst. Mr. MAntsoN communi cated to Congress a Repo - rt from M. MoNilo, Se cretary of State, containing a. dispatch from their Minister at Paris, Mr. CR kWFORD, dated January 16; from which it appears, that` Mr. C. had an interview with the Minister of Exterior. Relations, whose CCOVenatioll was as conciliatory as it could b,; bat the Emperor being just about to place himself at the head of his troops, was probably, too 111116 engaged to pay any attention to the American Plenipotentiary. On Monday the 18th inst. Congress is said to have finishe,d its Session, which must have prevented any discussion rela tive to the politeness of their French friends." The Boston Papers arc to the 22d inst.• The latest accounts frost •Washington state, that the Act repealing the Embargo, etc. had received the signature of the President. A Bill for ..prokibiu• ing the. exportation of Specie (recommended by Mr. MAntsot.r) • was postponed indefinitely; but the . law prObiliiting•the use of British Licences is Still to remain in force. • Agreeable to our promise, we lay before the ' Public the description of the Renewal of the League with above thirty Indians of different nations, who came to Quawc :14 . 1.91‘ to join- NoßeroN,, his Wife, and Aid-de-Camp, who'had ben ia.that place for a month preceding.

We re-, juice to see that the good sense of the Public tri umphs 'over these base attempts to revive at this ill-chosen season the discussion of a subject, the seantlal of. which we cannot even bear to remem ber, without experiencing sensations of indigna don and disgust. The • dig . nified reproof, conveyed in her MA JUT' Of this custom of forcing faiiiily quarrels into. public notice, Merits our warmest, admiration. . , We refrain from ma - king further extracts from the french Papers of yesterday,,a3 they are very • uninteresting ; and there has been no new ar rival.
