Jeeempcnir.g tfte President's Message ef the 17th
Feb.
Hxtract from a letter from jfohn M. Forbes, con
sul of the V. S. at Hamburg, to Mr. Madison,
Secretary of State, dated
November 13,1807.
•‘Two days ago the chief of the French dona
iTiers, M. Fudel, having from ihe circulating ru
mors of the town reason to suspect that an Amer
ican ship, the Lucy, captain Jesse Englce entered
as coming from Norfolk had come from England,
proceeded to examine die crew ; notice of this
was given to me by the captain who had also
consigned hia ship and freight to me, the cargo
being addressed to Messrs. Osgand, & Co. of this
city, but haveing always refused to acknowledge
the authority of the French donaniers, 1 declined
being present in any official|character, and as the
commercial correspondent ofthe captain sent my
chief clerk on board to render such assistance as
might be proper.—The examination did not take
place on board at the time appointed but at a lat
er hour at the house of Mr. Eudel. My clerk
■was not present, but 1 afterwards learned, that
the mate and crew had all sworn the ship came
from London. As soon as 1 knew this 1 wrote
the esptain a letter disclaiming further individual
agency in this business.'*
“ 1 examined more closely the papers ofthe
•hip Lucy, and convinced myself, by comparison
of bands that the signatures both ot the president
and your excellency to the sea letter, were both
evidentlyforged.**
Extracts of a letter from Mr. Lie, consul of the
United States, at Bordeaux, to the Secretary of
State, dated
November 1, 1808.
<!I have been long in expectation that the pre
sident would have instructed the consuls to de
tain in thi.*r hands the papers of all American ves
sels found in their district after the embargo, un
less they were bound directly to the U. States.—
A determination of this nature would have done
but little or no injury to our merchants, and put
a stop to the practice of the English, who send
shoals of American vessels from their ports,
whose owners never saw Am-rica, and whose
papers are manufactured in London.
** Ten vessels, suspected of having been expe
dited in this way from London, lately arrived in
the river Charante, as cbming from Norway, and
were admitted by the Custom-House. I sent an
agent over to Charante, to examine into the state
ot these vessels, whose report confirmed my sus
picions. I immediately wrote Gen. Armstrong
on the subject, but fearing delays might be ii^u
rious, I sat out for La Rochelle, and on my arri
val at Blaize, learned that some of the crews of
these vessels had betrayed their captains, and that
the whole of them were seized by this govern
ment and the crews imprisoned.
" It is proper to state to you, sir, that our ves
sels* papers with all their private marks, are so
completely copied in London, that it is almost
impossible to detect them.”
Copy of a Letter from Richard S. Hackley, Con
sul of the United States, at St. Lucar, dated
23d of March, 1809, to the Secretary of State.
SIR—Your department has no doubt been in
formed that the practice prevails in London of
forging all kinds of papers that appertain to ship
ping of the U. States, to which may be added
passports from the department of state, certifi
cates of naturalization, &c. fcc. some of which
were well executed, so much so, that the fraud
very generally passes without being detected.
By this means, a considerable trade bus been
carried on last year under our fag by British ship,
ping, particularly to Russia and South America,
and British subjects have passed wherever their
business called them. Protected by these
papers, our countrymen have but in too many in
stances found similar frauds answer their own
purpose, under the state of things as they now
are, and have, for some lime been in Europe. '
The name ofihe person in London who is the
great dealer in this species of speculation is Van
Saunders, and with this note, 1 cover you a sam
ple of his execution in a set of papers received
l’ im an American citizen here from whom I de
manded them upon baing informed that he had
them. To you the propriety will occur of taking
some immediate step to correct this evil, which
from its increasing practise, is becoming of se
rious importance in many points of view.
With much respect, he.
Your obedient servant,
(Signed) RICHARD S. HACKLEY.

has embarrassed me much. The ship ** Arno,”

that port on the 18th (7th) of June with a cargo
ol pot and pearl a6hes, lately arrived here witn a

Washington, March 9.
Extract of a letter from J. M. Forbes, Consul of
the l’. States at Hamburg, dated December 20,
1809.
Since writing the aforegoing, I have ascer
tained that four ships lately arrived at Tonnin*
gen under our flag, have been laden in England .
the Native, Capt. Hill of Philadelphia ; the
Commerce, Captain Harding of Boston ; the
Betsey, Captnin Wishartof New York ; and the
Six Sisters, Captain Isaacs of New York. This
last was totally lost at the entrance of the Eyder,
the other three have been seized on tny demand.
I was placed in the most embarrassing situation
of my whole life—I feared (and many others in
terested partook of this apprehension) that such
an exposure at a moment when an immense A
mericau property in Schleswic and Holstein was
arrested under a general suspicion of collusion
and fraud might have the most fatal efTects. 1
never doubted the correctness of the principle,
although the expediency of the exposure and the
alarming magnitude of the responsibility 1 was
about to assume, occasioned a pause of some days
—the notoriety oft he circumstance, however, at
length left me no alternative, and 1 demanded
the seizure of the above named ships, writing at
the 9ame time direct to his majesty the king of
Denmark, of which letter 1 have now the honor
to enclose a copy. 1 have no answer as yet, nor
can it be foreseen what has been in Copenhagen
or what will Le in Paris, the effect of this unfor
tunate occurrence. In any event, 1 am strong in
the conviction of my own rectitude and support
ed by the opinion of General Armstrong and the
unanimous approbation of the respectable body of
American merchants who represent the large pro
perty immediately at stake.
The following letter is published for the informa
tion of Merchants trading to any of the ports
of Russia.
Washington, March 3.
SIR,
On my behalf as Consul General of Russia
to the United States of America, I beg of you to
apprize the Merchants of Baltimore, and the o
tber parts of the state of Maryland, who may
clear out vessels to proceed directly or indirectly
for any part of the Russian dominions—That from
and after the publication of these instructions, it
will be absolutely necessary to apply to you, as a
gent of the Consulate General of Russia, appoin
ted through me, by order of his majesty the ‘ Em
peror of all the Knssias,' for all Commercial Do
cuments required for the Admission and Entry of
American vessels into the Ports of Russia, in con
formity to the orders given to the officers of the
Customs by ray Governmeet, to whom I have al
ready communicated your appointment, and shall
without delay give notice of this publication.
I have the honor to be,
Sir,
Your very obedient servant,
(Signed)

Mr. John Henry Hoskyns, Agent

Russia, Baltimore. 3
2 o the Republican citizens of the first Congressional
District of the State of Pennsylvania.
I have received, fellow citizens, your address
efthe 14th instant, with the impressions which
its assurances of approbation and attachment
could not fail to make ; and with every partici
pation in your sensibility, to the extraordinary
circumstances which continue to distinguish our
foreign relations.
a wit viv iiw mux 7 uian justice* as wen 10 my
predecessor as to myself, in referring the course
•which has been pursued, to a steady purpose of
withholding from each belligerent, a pretext for
disturbing our rightful intercourse with the o
ther, by observing towards both, the strictest im
partiality in exercising our neutral rights, and in
fulfilling our neutral obligations. This unexcep
tionable conduct, which ought to have shielded
us from aggressions of every sort, has been fol
lowed by a perseverance in multiplying them,
which no appeals to law, to reason, or to that poli
cy which alone accords with the true interests of
nations, as of the individuals, have succeeded in
averting or arresting.
In this state of things, it lies with the legisla
tive councils, to decide on the measures adapted
to it. That their decisions will duly consult the
sense of the nation, and faithfully pursue its best
interests, is what I feel great satisfaction in pre
suming ; as I do in witnessing the patriotism,
which in your example, unites with a manly ex
pression of your particular sentiments, a confi
dence in the constituted authorities, snd a deter
mination to support them.
Accept fellow citizens, my respects and friend
wishes.

SIR,
A very particular friend of yours, who has
been much recommended to n»y esteem, has
lately mentioned you to me in a manner, of which
l avail myself to offer this expression of the sense
1 have always entertained of your character, and
the part you bore, as a Hero & a Patriot, in esta
blishiugthe independence of our country.
I connot belter render this tribute, than by con
gratulating you on the happiness you cannot tail
to derive from the motives which made you a
Champion in so glorious a cause ; from the gra
titude shewn by your fellow citizens for your
distinguished services ; and especially from the
opportunity which a protracted life has given, of
witnessing the triumph of Republican Instituti
ons, so dear to you, in the unrivalled prosperity
flowing from them, during a trial of more than
a fourth of a century.
May your life still he continued ns long as it
can be a blessing ; and may the example it will
hefjue.lhe never be lost on those who live after
you.

ANSWER.
Dkruykikld, Jan. 21, 1810.
SIR,
I had the pleasure yesterday of receiving
an address from the first Magistrate of the only
Republic on Ksrtli- This letter compliments
me highly upon my tcrvices as a soldier, and
praises my patriotism. U it tiue I love the conn
try of my birth ; for it is not only the country I
should choose above ail others, but it is the only
•pot where I could wear out the remnant of my
days with any satisfaction.
Twice tPv country lias been invaded by foreign
enemies, and twice 1 went with the rest to ob
tain peace. Aiul when the object was gained,
1 returned to my farm and iny original occupa
tion. I have ever valued peace so high, that 1
would not sacrifice it lor any thing but freedom
—yet submission to insult I rover thought tUe
way to gain or support either.
1 was pleased with your dismissal of the man
the English sent to insult us, because they will
see by’ the experiment that we are the same
nation that we were in *76 —grown strong
by age, and having gained wisdom by experi
ence.
If the enmity of the British nation is to be
feared, their alliance is much inure dangerous —
For I have fought with them and against them,
and I found them treacherous and ungene
rous as friends, and dishoco abl • as enemies 1
have tried the French likewise, first as enemies
and then as friends ; tuid although ail the strong
partialities of inv youth wei e against them, still
I formed a more favorable opinion of them. But
let us watch THEM.
However, among all the dangers that / have
Iteen ton ness of to our country and cur “ Republi
can Institutions,"perhaps there is none that re
quires a more watchful eye than our I.'* TPRPAL
URITISH FACTION.
If the communication of the result of my ex
perience can be of any use in the approaching
storm, or if iny use can be derived from any ex
ample of mine—my strongest wish will he gra
tified.
The few days or weeks of the remainder of
my life will be in friendship with Ja.il* Ma
dison.
