PHILADELPHIA, FEB. 4 #
Extras of a letter from London, dated 171 b Nov
ember, 1709;
" We had, as we supposed, a momentary
glance at peace on the late revolution in France,
but the new Consulate seem to concentrate the
remaining energy of the country, and appear
determined to exert it in-one great effort, to
over run the yet unconquered countries around
them.—The utmost secrecy is now preferred,
not even the skeleton of their councils are open
to the populace, as heretofore ; in short, they
have at last found that there is more mystery in
the foence of government than iheir chimeric
al doctrine of universal rightsand fuffrages, &c.
once allowed—the consequence i^ that the body
of the people-c^afr tobavea voice and are placed
as they ought to be, in a situation to have no
thing to do with the laws, but to be governed
by them."
A negotiation of a commercial nature (fays
a letter from Bengal) has lately been carried
on at j.ddo.—The gentleman deputed to wait
on the Emperor, has, it is said, been fuccefsful
in his correspondence Jeddo is the capital of
Japan, nine miles in length, and fix in breadth,
and contains 1,000,000 inhabitants, The
wealth of this place is incalculable ; the Roy
al Palace is in the middle of the town, and is
defended by walls, ditches, towers, and bas
tions. Where the Emperor resides are three
towers, nine ftorics high, euh covered with
solid gold, near an intch in thickucfs ; and
the grand hall of audience is fuppnrted by pil
lars of maffy gold. Near the Palace are sev
eral others, where the relations of the Emperor
live. The Empress has a Palace pfber own;
and there are twenty small ones for the concu
bines. Besides, all the Vassal Kings have
each a palace in the city, with a handsome
Carden, and'ftables for 2000 horses. The
Emperor, it teems, is very desirous to maintain
an intercourse with a nation which has acquir
ed so much refpe# and confidence in Ihdia,
mote efpccially as it insures him a constant
and fafe market. The articles to be imported
will conlift gfthofe which are valuable. New
species of merchandize form the life of com
merce, and experience has confirmed this in
jts fulleft extent. Japan is accounted one of
the best countries in Asia, and the richefl in the
world for gold.
Buonaparte is said to have given to his wife
B valuable triangular diamond buckle, which
he received in Egypt, for protecting a caravan ;
the Citizenefs wearing it asa ceftus, has made
the fafhion general through France.
Madame La Fayette, having lately waited
Upon Buonaparte, was afleed by the General
how her hufbancLdid Since he had regained his
liberty. SHc answered, " Separated from his
country, the rest of Eurppeds still buta prison
4 to him."
Our Dublin correspondent assured us (fays a
late London paper) on authority of which he
fpcaks with decided confidence, that it is not the
intention of the irifli government to adopt any
proceeding affecting the life of Mapper Tandy.
• % fan T,m,c Tandy, who served under the
^ ,• eft.f'i: I..j^fofU^ ,
, 1 his Excellency, reqc^i",') know if his father's
I life is to Be jT^.ri, as in such case he would
I prepare for tne r. noval of hiniLf and effects
I out of Ireland. To this the Marquis Cornwallis
replied, (as our correspondent learnt) that N.
Tandy's life was .in no danger, as the purpose
of government is, after identification, to lend
Tandy to Fort George.
Treaty between Spain a,A Morocco.
A Treaty of Peace, Commerce, Fishery, and
Navigation, has been concluded between his
I Catholic majeft) and the Emperor of Morocco,
;at Mequinze. It isa very curious treaty,and is
} looked upon in Spain as one ilep towards the
;civilization of Africa.'
The difference of religious opinions is no lon
ger made an obstacle with the Mahometans ;
and the latter, who offered to Chriftian< no oth
ler alternative than slavery or rhe sword, Ipesk
' in this treaty of their wifaes to live mfrit%@?;
good underfunding, and harmony with all Chriftun
, powers. In the 13th article the Emperor cf
:Morocco declares, that he cefires the odious
name of slavery may be effaced fiom the memo
ry of man.
This treaty regulates four Efferent objects :
1. The conditions upon which peace fhall|
continue to exiil between the two nations. ' 1
2. The regulations relative to the reciprocal 1
commerce between them.
3. The navigation.
4 rhe fifhery.
We shall not dilate upon the two last articles
further than to fay, that the Spaniards and rhe
;inhabitants of the Canaries arc permitted to lilh
to the north of St. Croix in Barbary.
; The 19th article is a step towards the aboli-
I tion of privateering. The Morocco sailors and
I effects taken on board ships at war with Spain
.are to be restored, without raufom, by the Span
-1 iards. The fame is to be done by the fubjeas
<of Morocco. Morocco ships and effects cap
; tured by a power at war with the Emperor,
are not to be fold in the ports of Spain. This
condition is also reciprocal.
I Christian Haves, of any ration whatever, who
1 having escaped from captivity, shall feck an afy
; lum on board Spanish ships, or in the forts
Iwhich his Catholic maj-Ry has on the coaftof
Africa, shall not be reclaimed by their makers.
The articles 26 to, 35, regulate the tuftoms,
;duties, &c. The 30th article declares, that the
company of Cinco-Gremois of Madrid shall
continue to enjoy the cxclufive privilege of
Idrawing corn from Morocco, by the port of
; Darbeyda.
lAn article states, that in case of a rupture be-
I tween the two powers, the prisoners shall not
;be treated or considered as Slaves; but they
I shall be exchanged as those of European nationsl
1 are.
? May that system of piracy and plunder which
( has hitherto chara&erifed and-disgraced the na
<tions of Africa be fpeMily extinguished ; and
I may it be replaced by the milder, tiie more en
-Ilightened, and more productive principles of
;commerce and cultivation!

ATtfrs. Tuadt & Brown,
Several letters from the Weftem|
country and Kentucky, inform me that !
the quantity of wheat in those parts iss
treble what it has ever been before. It ;
i^ offered to deliver flour 011 the Ohio ;
at 3 dollars per barrel, and at New Or-I
leans for from 4to 5 dollars. As the|
southern and middle dates, from thel
scarcity of vessels and high rates of|
freight will not be competent to the
carrying of this article from New-Or
leans, it is recommended to the eastern
drippers to turn, their attention to that
qtyrter, where during the spring and
summer, advantageous voyages may
be made. This is the more worthy
their attention, as flour is likely to be
in demand the approaching season, and
will yield very valuable freights. I
have no hesitation in faying, that if the
people in that country could be certain
of meeting purchasers, or of procuring
vessels to carry off their flour, not less
then 100,000 barrels would be sent to ,
market—last year 30,000 were carried'
down. I have it also from the deft au
thority to Rate, that the quality of the
flour is equal tothat sent to the Phila-।
delphia and Baltimore markets. The
barrels are of the fame size, and infpec
ed before flipped to New-Orleans.

The following communication has been tranfciitted
to us,from a correspondent at St. Mary s,
fanuc^ isl, 1800.
This day an erprefs arrivea at Point Petre, with
dispatches from Col. Hawkins, the Indian agent,
to Mr. Ellicott, the United States commiffoner for
running the boundary line. Among the difpatebes re
ceived, there is a proclamation fgned by William
Augufus Ilowles, dilmgbOTfelf chief and direfbr
general of the Creel nation, which bar been fuel up
and made public through the Creel: Towns. This
proclamation exceeds in insolence, impudence and bcm
bafl, any thing that bath hitherto been exhibited by
this well known adventurer. Fowles in the mes
direct terms denies the right of Fiber the United States
or Spain to run the boundary line, or to have any in
tercourse with the Indians, hut by his authority.—
He forbids this on pain of death, to all who may ob
pofe bis royal will and pleafire. Fowles orders the
Indians to fend mr. Rawkins and others out of the
ration.
Certain it is, ore or other of them ought not so be
there ; and the people of this country, will soon fee
which of these men have mos influence among the In
dians, as mr. Hawkins must quit the ground, or
drive Fowles, after fuel? a proclamation and threats
ugainf him and his country.
