ss siWe have had "a very animated ,demand
for COTTON since the publctication of our ss
sisi-Circul'ar siand Prices Current by the Eliza.
From the 25th ultimo to the 7th instant,
ss about 20,0DO bags were sold, and at a gra- si.
1 dual advance of nearly 1 1-4-d per lb: last ;
week, especially in the early part of it, the ;
spirit for buying subsided ; on Friday and
ss Saturday it recovered some of its formerf
activity; but the total sales of the chk .si
were norsimore than 3500 packages. We
notice a dechne of 1'-4d a 1-2-J per lb. on ,
inferior Boweds and Orleans, at a time that '
prime parcels have sustained scarcely any
, drpression: this evidently confirms what
& we have before remarked, that Cotton of
si good quality is very scarce. it may not,
ss perhaps, be unimportaht to state, that se
veral consignments have lately been made
to us, part of which were on deck; permit
us to suggest, that the apparent saving of
freight is outbalanced by the extra insuu ancc,
and the injury sometime sustained by salt 1
water. We trust another obser'vation will
net he deemed intrusive : In some invoices
a charge. of ! 1-4- CCM per she is made for
sirepacking; but as we have not in any in- !
stance perceived that repacking cotton isss
preferred. we presume the exPcncc is near
ly thrown away. The constant consump
tion of manufactured goods in Great Bri
tain and- her colon'tes necessarily takes from
this market 4- 8 5000 bags wcckly "; when
to this quantity is added the renewed de
mand from the United Statcs, it is rea
sonable to conclude, 'that unless the supply
be very ahundimt, nearly the present priccs
may be considered the curt-cncy for some
time to come : those prices msie— '

be considered as void.

written agreement with Mr. S. V. S. 'Wil.

the agreement ; the subsmncc of which was
that the ship was to proceed from St. Sc
bastians, whesirc she lay scqucstcrcd, to Bor

board. Mr. Ridgeway, late Amcrican
consulat Antwerp, and his samiiy, were
also to cmbark in the. Saily. l'hc captain
relief! so firmly on the agreement, that he
kept all his crew on buard ; nor was it un
til a few days previous to the Ann's sailing
that he knew his sate. All the scquesccred

St. Scbastians to Bayonue. She was lest,

Among all the insults and injuries Which
the French nation are continually heaping
on the degraa'ed Americans, perhaps a great
er degree of turpitude cannot be named
than the followingz—The ship Fulcon, of
this place} owned hy Messrs. ]ohnZt Wm.
Parrot,'and Mr. Oliver Hamiltnn, took a
cargo os cottnn on freight ftnm Savannah,
and proceeded to the port ot Wismar,in the
Balnc. After almost reaching her port of
discharge and receiving a pilo: on bhard,
she was taken nya pnvateet Uu du: zzct ot

month the Frenchmen observing a number
osEnglish boats approaching the Falcun,
and knowing if the English rctoQk her, she
would be dcssltvercd up to the lawful own
ers, wantonly burnt the ship and cargr>,and
thus manisestcd a malicious disposition, at
which even demons might blush. If the
Frenchmke Amesittan property unlawtssul

for the use of some one, and although
the rightlsiushwner may be ruined by the
loss ; yet through various Channels it may
find its way, and perhass assist some needy ss
pour and d*scr<-ssed person. They there

thieves, rehbers and plttnclert—rs. But
when thv'y find they cannot retain the pro
perty taken by them, and to prevent its t'e

burn and destroy it, is such atrociouc con
