Fire at Constantinople.
Extract oj a le'ter from an American at
Constantinople to a gentleman in this
town, dated April 21 1810.
“ Yesterday a fire broke out in a Pera,
one of the divisions of the suburbs, and to
the N. 8c E of Constantinople. It raged
with the greatest degree of rapidity, and
piesented a truly terrific sight to the spec
tators. At 11 o’cli ck it extended nearly a
# mile, and formed one continual flame ; nor
■was Any stop put to it until sun set, when
somes'.one buildings stopped in some ntea
surre its rapid progress, and about midnight
its ravages were nearly at an end. Thedis_
tress of the inhabitants is very great. It is
supposed that 30u00 are now in the fields,
and burial grounds with the little they were
able to snatch from the destructive element.
It is supposed that about 8000 buildings were
entirely consumed. — Bos. Pal.

FROM CADIZ.
By the ship Maria, Capt. Church, we learn
th;t the siege of Cadiz, remained much the
same as for some weeks past-that the
part\ of 5 or 6000 men, that had been . dis..
pa'ched under the command of Gen. Lacey,
to get possession of the Sierra of Honda, had
returned to Cadiz, without accomplishing
its ultimate object, which was-by cu operating
with the British expedition from Gibraltar,
to retake Malaga.
Gen. Ferguson had arrived in Cadiz, from
England, and was to rank in the army se
c judin command. We have not been able
to learn any further particulars of the defeat
of Gen. Crawford in Portugal, as no intelli
gence had reached Cad.z of his havingef_
fected a junction with Lord Wellington^ ar
my.
It was rumoured in Cadiz, that. Gen.
Massena had made a relrogade movement,
not having a sufficient force to face the com
bined British and Portuguese armies.
By a gentleman from Hayti, we learn
that about the 24th. of July, about 10.000
brigands, nncl.r the command of Gen. Go
inas (supposed to be in the pay of Christo
phe) surrendered by negociation, to Gen.
Rigaud at Jeremic, whose force was about
5000. Great joy was expressed on the occa
sion.

We stated the little probability of. and the
precaution that had b«en taken to prevent,
even the possibility of mischief Sir r ran

We further stated that his determination
ought to have been made known ; to this
sir Francis remarked that it was absolutely
necessary there should be an expression ot
public sentiment; that was now complete,
and his being in the procession could not
have added thereto.—\Ye said, we wished
that some of our friends had hern in the tow
er, to have forced him into the carriage.
Sir Francis expressed his gratitude for
that expression of kindness as indeed he
did to all his friends, but this would have
had the appearance of finesse; that he lo>«k
ed only to the public cause, which he was
convinced would be benefmed by his conduct,
and of this all his friends would no doubt be
convinced.”

some going on board Petion’s fleet at the
Mole, and others fleeing to Christophe, for

in high spirits. He said that in two days he
should have possession of the Mole ; that
part of his troops were in the town, 8c that he
had no doubt of success. Christophe’s na

PROCLAMATION.
To all to whom these firesents shall come
greeting:
Whereas, bv the sixty first section of
the act, entitled “ An act to regulate the
collec'ion of duties on imports and tonnage.”
passed the 2d day of March, 1799, jt is a
tnong other things declared——T.iat it
shall be lawfol for tire President of the U.
States to cause to be established, fit and
proper regulations for estimating the duties
on goods, wares and merchandise, imported
into the United States, in respect to which
the original cost shall be exhibited in a de
predated currency, issued and circulated
under authority of any foreign government ”
And Whereas, it has been made appear
to njv satisfaction, that the current doliar
of Norway is a money of account, and that
payments are now made in thar country in
a paper currency of that denomination, is
sued under the authority of goveiMinent,
which circulates with a considerable depre
riatinn •
Now, know ye. that I, James Madison,
President of the United States by virtue of
the po*ver and authority in me vested by
the act before recited, have decided, that
the collectors of the customs in the United
S'ates, shall, for the present in estimating ]
the ad valorem duties on goods, wares and
merchandize imported from Norway, and
invoiced in the current dollar of Norway,
calculate the same, at such rate as may ap_
pear to be its real value at the time when
the goods, wares and merchandize were
shipped from the said country. And I do
also further direct, that the secretary of the
treasury take such measures fnt giving
publicity to this regulation, as to him shall
appear most proper.
Given under my hand, at Montpelier, this
19th day of July, 1810.
JAMES MADISON.
From the Baltimore Whig
We hear from Washington, that the dis
patches lately brought from Mr. Pinkney
in the Tamaahmaah, have been forwarded
to the Secretary of State—-but are quite
unimportant.
That accounts are received from Paris,
of the intercession of the Emperor ot Aus
tria with Bonaparte in favor of Ferdinand
VII. and that the Emperor would give him.
his second daughter in marriage—provided
Napoleon would restore him to the throne
of Spain, or otherwise provide for him.
That Bonaparte meant to propose terms
of peace to England.
On these topics, there was much specula
tion ; some pronouncing it impossible that
Bonaparte could or would degrade his bro„
cher Joseph to. raise a Bourbon in his stead ;
others arguing the contrary, from the cir
cumstance of the monument decreed to Lou
is the sixteenth ; that if the young Em
press and her family had obtained B na.
parte’s consent to that measure, they might
carry their influence.
We will wait for facts, rather than form
opinions on conjecture and rumor.
' . Lynchburg. August 17.
Creston, alias Walsinghain, nodeed in our
last, who carried off 1 uthell’s wife and
child, put an end to his existence in Fincas- j
tie jail, on Friday night last, by cu'ting his
owp throat, thighs am] face in a most shock
ing manner with a razor. The desperate
resolution of self destruction formed by this .
unfortunate man, was carried into com
plete eflVct, as the principal blood vessels,
the jugular and temoral arteries, were en„
tirely cut through, Ii is conjectured, that
the motives which indue- d him to disfigure
his face, were to prevent his being readily
identified; as he was heard to declare, that
he should never appear in any court of justice,
and that the principal circumstances of his
case should for ever remain a secret. lie
was in possession of very large sums of mn.
ney, of winch a consider able portion, report
says 16 or 17 thousand dollars, was in bank
notes. I liese ’ is said, he destroyed before

vised him to have b. en rode on such an oc
casion. Silence was his duy But if he
had given loose to the feelings of his country,
what would he have said to these “ Friends
of Foreigners in distress”? “ 1 admire your
institution——but why have you not a en.
ded its benificence ? And why d<*es not your
government imbibe your spirit ? You me
the friends ol foreigners in distress--. Yet
thousands of tny countrymen arc new itn„

of their chains have you broken ?” Instead
of opposing oppression, has not England ge

our ships taken—our commerce interdicted
—our merchants either reduced to bank,
rupts, or to the ignominy of being your fac
tors. Are these the themes of eloquent pa
negyric—or of indignation ?
The truth is, if we must have our minis,
levs at the courts of F.urope, we should be
cautious how long we suffered them to re.
main there—a few may retain their simpli
city and spirit—but it is r« quisite for others
to return to their country and breathe anew
their native air.
* From another Report of hit Speech.
A df.faulter.-According to the last
accounts trotu Massachusetts, Barnabas
Biiiwell, the Attorney-General of the Sut'e,
and tor 17 years *1 leasur^r of the County of
Berkshire, has committed a fraud upon the
tund of the county, anti attempted to con_
ceal that fraud by jl forgery—In that state,
it seems, there are certain items of expence,
which are discharged, in the first instance
out of the county l'teasuiy, and then repaid
to the county 1 reasurer by the Treasury of
the Commonwealth. Such as the costs of
prosecutions in the Supreme Courts, the
maintenance of criminals in goal, when it
mounts above a certain sum, &c. Mr. B.
received these dues from the Common.,
wealth, and failed to give credit to the
county. On being called before the Com.
mit et ot the Court to settle his accounts,
these omissions were pointed out to him
and he subsequently took care to alter his
accounts, which were filed in the state Trea
sury, s<» as to engratt these credits upon
them-finding However, that the Com.
mittee had previously obtained a transcript
of these same accounts, he restored them,
it is said, to their original shape——but not
[Until the committee had procured a second
| transcript of them, in the state in which
his alterations left them. The variance be
tween these two setts of accounts created
| the suspicion, and led io the detection of the
iforgery. A wairant was taken out fur his
, apprehension--mt ’he bird had flown.
I I hese circumstances strike every man:
with disgust—jjor .is there or.e who can
hesitate a moment, if they are true, to aban J
don Mr. B. B. to public infamy and con_ I
tempt. But he has been a democrat-Sc
a leader in Congress. “ Ay ; there’s the
rub” Fur the Federalists must make ater
ribls rout about the matter—and with J that
liberal aad charitable spirit which becomes
them, are visiting, the sins of or.e man upon
the whole republican party.
VVe must all be a set of rascals, because
^ U* was one.-Is this die language of
charity or of reason? ‘ They endeavor to
make the people believe, that they are
cheated out of their money, when they
well know that Bid well scaice owes any
thing io he entm y of Beikshirc, and has
left a large pr perty behind him. tflow is
the republican party implicated in his
guilt ? Bt cause B B. c died himself a re.
publican, is every repobl can a rascal? Be
cause pretended Christians lead an aban

more than ten times thr amount of all other
defalcations, is every federalist a client'’_
Remember, that the H n H. B waseheted
the Berkshire Treasurer, when that coun
ty was federal.’*
_Wliat is the tr«e conclusion? That public
officers should be regularly called up^n to
settle their accounts—nothing should be ta
ken upon trust—their responsibility should
be something more than a name —.every
one should be periodically brought to the
test, as far as it is practicable Congress
should act upon this principle.— ■■Commit,
tees should be raised, each session, to inspect
the b> ks and vouchers of the departments
—and not only to see that the v/oik has been
done, but as far as they can, to see how it
has been done 8cc. For want of this accoun

The officers themselves should wish it._.
