The General in Chief, sufhciently accustomed to the vicissitudes of war, is not surprised at the ill success of yesterday, although he had the best founded hopes for flattering himself with its goOd success, and commenced the action under the most -encouraging appearances.. In consequence of this misfortune; he is not less confident of being able to repel the invasion of the enemy. The conduct of the Generals, Chiefs, Officers, and soldiers, was, in general, satisfactory, and par ticularly that of the 4th 'division of the. 4th army, underField•Marshal Don J. ZAYAS.; but the Ge 'neral is much dilContented with certain corps, and some individuals; he will not publicly censure them till he has inquired into the ciicumstanc , s ;- ai soon, however, as he has proved their cowardice, he will visit them with all the rigour of national justice and vengeance.

TIIIRD EDITION, ; SUN - OFFICE, HALF•PIST THREE O'CLOCK. A Copy of the Speech of the President of the United States has just reached us. It begins with stating, the hope that a successive confirmation of the extinction of the French Decrees would have produced a repeal of the British Decrees. This had been refused by the British Government having denied that the French Decrees had been re pealed, and , the United States having been given to understand that the Non-importation Act would lead to measures of retaliation. The encounter between the President and the • Little Belt is alluded to, and all the blame of the first fire is thrown upon Captain BINGHAH. The- British Government is accused of having ,in terposed against the proceedings of the United States and the Floridas, France is stated not to have iepaired the other wrongs done , to the United States, nor restored- the' Arnerican property which had becn seized. Her. unexpected reSirialions will - require correspondent Jestriaions on French-imports. With Russia and Sweden the United States are at peace, and the Atsaion to Denmark bad been successful. Measures bad been taken to pro%ide for the ge- neral security, by public works, &c. Brt.
