Extract of a letter from Washington, Aov. 19.
Congress has not as yet done any business of im
portance. Horse racing, the last week, engaged
the attention of many of our Senators and Repre
sentatives.
M. Thuriot, the Minister Plenipotentiary from
the Emperor ,of France to this Country, arrived
last evening in this city.
"Mr Tracey, this day gave notice to the Senate,
that he would to-morrow move for leave to bring
in a Bill to repeal such part of an act of the last ses
sion, as imposes an additional duty of 21-2 per cent
on all advalorem goods."
We have not received any information from Con
cord since the Legislature has been in session. Re
port however says that the Democratic Electors
are chosen by a declar'd majority of 700 votes—be
it so, but this b, no means tests the politic senti
'xnent of the State—for had a fall vote been given,
a Federal majority would have appeared of up
wards of 1000 votes.
We notice several towns where the Federal
Ticket has received more votes than at any elec
tion for the last 2 years.
A Question—Are the Democrats willing to cal
culate their majority as they have ever done the
Federal—if so their candidates are elected by about
200 votes— and had all the votes been legally re
. turned, We hazard an opinion that they would not
have been elected at all— at all,
The Hon. Oliver Peabody, late Treasurer of the
State, has been chosen to represent the towa of Ex
eter in the Legislature, vice Nathaniel Gilman,Esq.
appointed Treasurer.

Extract of a letter dated New-Orleans,Zlst August
to a gentleman in Fatthez.
" This city is at present a scene of great distress.
■fat Had death hovering over it. M^T&Q© ,
Hottor Euslh aged*. —From the part which thi,
gentleman took in several questions, which material
ly affected the political influence of Massachusetts,
Ye inferred that he had abandoned the interests of his
constituents. But mark with what personal malig
nity he is now a second time attacked by the Joffes
sonian Republicans. The following is from the Citi
zen.
“ It appears too that Massachusetts will at this e
lection yield us more Republican Members of Con
gress than heretofore ; and what is equally pleasing,
her representation will be pure, and of a character
more distinctly marked. Ofthis increase, we here
rejoice that Dr. Eustis is not one. He ij one of your
self-important, cunning trimmers, who has sometimes
been on one side, and as often on the other. To such
a character, we prefer a manly and unequivocal
federalist, for we know him and can meet him. But
there is an underhandedness, a sneaking hypocrisy
about Dr. Eustis that unfits him for so important a
trust."

LIBERTY • OR DEATH.
DECREE,
Jacques the Fitft, Emperor of Hayti.
Being informed, that the Captains of American vcfels,
that arrive in the different ports of our Empire, make a
practice of felling their cargoes, wholcfale or retail, to
small dealers.
Considering that the &bove practice is prejudicial to com
merct and favors the exportation of all the Ipecic from the
Island, we determine to put a flop to it.
We, therefore Decree atu ordain the following to be
executed in its utmost extent.
ARTICLE I.
We forbid, promptly, every Captain of a foreign vessel,
arriving in the^orc of our Empire, to fell their cargoes by
retail, tp small dealers, or private perlons.
ARTICLE IL
The merchants established by virtue of our Letters Pa
tent, (hall have the foie power to treat for the cargoes,
either fcparatcly or jointly.
ARTICLE 111.
Every merchant, foreign or domeftick, who shall receive
directly, consignments of vessels, shall not fell the merchan
dize by retail; and shall conform according to Articles;
with respect to the sale of their cargoes.
ARTICLE 1V
The merchants cftablhfnrl by our Letters Patent, shall
not treat with the configures of foreign vcffcls, until the
administration shall have made choice of such articles as
are necefcy for the army.
ARTICLE V.
Any person for persons, contravening the prefect decree
shall be fined three hundred dollars for the firft offence,
and five hundred for the fecund.

the enclosed advertisement with the N. 13. annexed
to the same. lam induced to make the latter part
of my request particularly, as its insertion was re

" did they assign any reason for this refusal ?" I
say in reply that " they thought the first part of
the advertisement was enough"—this no doubt is
reason " with a vengeance."
I am at a loss to account for their conduct, in
any other way that the nattQl desire of “ encreas
