The Supreme Cobrt of the United States
have lately decided, in ah appeal from the
Circuit Court of »hat every dis
trift court in the United States poffefles all
the powers of a court of admiralty,whether
considered as an infttncepira prise court.
The fame court have also adjudged and
decreed that no foreign power can of right
erefi any court of judicature, within the
jurifdiaion of the United States, except
warranted by and in pursuance of treaty—
and therefore the admiralty jurifdiflion
which has been exercised in the United
States by Consuls of France, not being so
warranted, is not of right.

HARTFORD, (Con.) Feb. 24;
Extrafl of a letter from an officer in the
Weller n army, to a gentleman in tbit city,
dated Fort Walhington, Jan. 16.
“ This goes by expreb, who is charged
with dispatches from the commander in
chief, on a very ihterefiing fubjed to the
United States. As Congress are now fit
ting, they will undoubtedly have the con
tents before them. Those who are for
peace with thefavages, in this country,are
in high (pirits. On the 1 ith inst. ah old
Stockbridge Indian,with an iriffi merchan
made their public entry into the canton
ment of Green Ville, under a white flag.
The yellow ambaflador (peaks very good
English. He fays that in consequence of
what a Mr. Wells (a spy and Indian inter
preter to our army) told an old fquaw,who
he had taken prisoner and sent back, that,,
the United States (were yet willing to treat,
he was sent by the Delawares,^Tauwais,
and some other tribes, to fee the great War
Chief, and to know if this report was true.
He further fays, that if a negociation cah
be set on foot they will treat with its. That
they are now tired of the war, and they
are sorry they did not listen to our com
missioners last spring. They were deceived
by the commander in Chief, and treated
in a proper manner; told of their weakness
and of the great power of their adversaries,
the Irish merchant remained as a hoflage.
The Indian, with a gentleman belonging
to the army, went out to meet some chiefs,
who were at afmall distance from the can
tonment. In the eveniug of the 13th they
returned, wish a son of Buckaugelew, the
chief of the Delaware nation, and another
warrior of diftindion ; from these circum-
ItancfS we conclude that the enemy are at
Jeaft serious in their overtures. Thiscor
refponds with intelligence I have late'y
had from the Indians,through a channel
that may be depended on. They are a
cunning, subtle people,and (hould be cau
tiously guarded against, at the fame time
our reputation as a free and liberal nation,
might fuffer, did we not, eVen at this pe
riod, eftabliih them as our friends and al
lies. ■ —
A letter from Philadelphia mentions,
that the new French Mintter is about in
stituting an inquiry into the conduct of
the Ex-Minister, refpe&ing the condemns,
tion and fpoilation of the French Eaft-In*
diaman. The result, it is expeded, will
Xurnifh frefh machianary for the Perpetual
Motion, at Paris.
Ft is [aid in the Newhampjbire Gazette
of Saturday las, that many <who •were pre
[ent at their late meeting ** (hould not have
voted as they did,'* bad it not been for a let
ler from Mr, Sherburne, who charged the
oppofers to Mr. Madifan's propofitions <witb
being British Agents and FaQers, and that
their optoftion proceeds from fitch unworthy
motives. If Mr. Sheburne has made this
charge, and it is true, for ty-feven Members
of Congre[s have been guilty of HIGH
TREASON, and ought to fufer death.—
But if not true, what p'unijh’me'nt can be
fujfciently condign to be inflicted on a man,
•who can thus wantonly and infamoufy [port
•with the reputation and charafiir of bis fel
low- citizens and colleagues ?
A correspondent, Who is a zealous A
merican, entertains the hope, that the char
aderittic generality of his countrymen;
will rettrain them from any exultations on
the fall of Mr. Genet; and however, they
may have relented his difrefpedful beha
vior to the Man of their choice, »nd the
government they have ettablilhed, they
will unite their prayers, that not the errors
of his head, nor the failings of his heart,
may consign him to a punifhhient at which
humanity revolts.
We learn that the late embargo on A
merican veffeh, in France, is taken off.
Three sons of Dr. Priestle y have
arrived in the United States, and a letter
from the Doflor to Mr. Gough, of Savan
nah, informs, that he intends soon to fol
