.hich have been imported within the laat 6
months, and comniiniouen have been ap
ioted to conduct the examination et the
disscrcnt pom- A good deal of alarm wan
,, suit excited among those interested, but
a"he object of the measure came to be
clearly maniscet, the alzrm has subsided;
and being now eatbfied of the origin and
jmcnt of the exemitution, it is confidently
expected that the resujaint will be removed
lo soon as the examination takes place.—
'he coxnmissionen at Tonniogen have fi
nished their business and reported to the
king, having tound no enemy'e property
there. The comminioners at Altona have
not yet gone through w't'th their examinr
tion. But some property has already been
restored, by order of the king, upon : spe
cial application. made to him. As to the
Propelty of my friends, it is so indisputa—
ss bly clear, and so well attested, that ] should
:havc no apprehens'ton about its being re- ss
; lsi-ased, after the most rigid tcrutiny. iVith
ssxcgard to the present examination, it is per
fectly well understood to be one in which it
is not the wish of the governmentmr its
officers to mitke discoveries, were there
any thing to discover—sor obvious rea
sons. All the property has already gone
;hrnugh the formalities required by the
laws, which are in themselves extremely
ssrigid; though ] cannot say or that they
have been very rigidly enlorcetl. The con
tequence ol' detection would be, to discrcdit
the king's authorities, and to justify the
suspicions of the French ; both which it is
certainly the interest and policy of the go
vernment and people to avoid. Is there
really be any covered proPerty at all, the
mount, in my opinion, is incoosiderable_
But smee this inquiry has been ordered,
four vessels under our own Bag have arrived
siat Tonningen, which Mr. Forbsies, our con
lui, he thought preper to denounce, as
comings England, and they have ac
,tordingl een seized and theirerewslcon
sixted. [have no doubt but Mr. Forbes
has been actuated on the occasion by what
he conceivul to be a tense os duty, however
Wtionable the expedieney of the measure
may have been. He_ has certainly acted
under great respoosibility, and will doubtless
incur inuch odium srtim many quarters,
vhetlter the Veesels be loaded on English
account or not. 'lhe people of Tonningen
especiall) , ] um told, are very much exns
peraltd against him. because they con
ceive, _and I think very truly, that it will
occasion their port to be shut ; of course
they will have very little to do afterwards.
The present season is : gloriout harvest to
them.
** The present prieea os colonialproduce
(the purchasers taking the risk of the pro
perty) are nearly, and some actually, quite
as high as they Were previous to the arrest ;
which may be- considered the strongest
proof that could be given, that little doubts
are entertained as to the safety of, the pro
perty. You will also understand, that the
actual possession has not been required ; no
thing more than a return of the articles to
the eo-sinmissionen. ! hope, and expect in
a few days, to be able to give you informa
tion of the entire restoratioupf the property.
lknow full well whatalarm the first ac
eouuts of the detention-will create in the U
States ; which is my chief reason for being
60 particular on the subject." A

moved sundry other amendmcuts, whisin

reported the bill as amended. The house
proceeded tn consider the amendtnents, but
before any question was taken, auadjourn

ln addition to the above mentioned or
der, an cdtct arrived the tame day from the
Chlnccry of Copenhagen, dated 25thinet.
which ordered the Comminion to sequester
all colanial produce and foreign manuﬂtctur -
ed g.. :d: imported during the last six months'
and to examine the propertyjuridicclly. In
consequence the merchants, under penalty
of military execution. have been obligvl to
give bonds, not to aellnor to permit their
good: to leave their store:.
As the government has pronounced sen
tence of DBATH agcinst any one trading
w'th England,- as the lawe are cxecuted
with tiger; and as all property arriving'
here is strictly examined, there is reason to
believe that the second examinatinn lately
ordered will fumish a convincing proos,that
not even-a foreigner has carried on :in this
city a trade prohibited by the govunmcnt.
