A Gottehbnrg mail arrived this morning, with
letters and papers from that cilv to the 1st inst.
and Stockholm to the-30t-i ull. The Stockholm
letters bring no news of importance. The paper
of the 27th contains a report from Admiral Puke,
confirming the intelligence that the whole Rus

frigates, which remained in Roggrswtck or Bal

sole motive for shutting ii, we understand, was
to prevent provision ships from falling into^he

of procuring any, except what they picked up at
sea.
November 9.
w C yesterday announced tlie receipt of dispat
ches from Spain, communicating an account of an
action bei ween the Spaniards under gen. Blake,
and the French army under gen. Ncy. It ap
pears, that gen. Blake, having advanced from Bil
boa, attacked the enemy on the 26th, at Vernosa,
cn thfe road to Durango, to which the French, un
der Gen. Merlin, had withdrawn, after they had
evacuated Bilboa. After « abort, but very sharp
action, the French began to retreat, but continu
ed to dispute every inch of ground, durin g the
whole of their retrograde movement. Gen. Blake
advanced as far as Zarnosa, from whence he
meant shortly to make a fresh attack upon the en
emy, who, it was thought, would risk a general
battle in defence of Durango, as the possession
ofitbythe Spaniards, would place them com
pletely in tin: rear of the French at Vittoria. In
‘'this action, the Spaniards are said to have lost
2000 men. The loss of the*French is represen
ted as much more considerable. A private let
ter states, that a French corps, consisting of up.
wards of 1000 infantry, was entirely cut off and
compelled to surrender. On the 27lh, gen Blake
reconnoitred the position of the enemy, and de
termined to attack them with all possible speed ;
so that the next Arrival will, in all probability,
bring us accounts of -the utmost importance from
that quarter. The army under the command of
marshal Lefebvrc had, we understand, been re
inforced by a >• mt 8000 men from France ; butlie
•ynnd this, we have not heard of any material
reinforcements having reached the enemy in
Spain.
The army under the command of Biake, is es
timated ..t 50,000 men, TiW,iy infantry ; that un
der Castlimis, is nearly 60,00*0, including a great
number of cavalry. An arnriy from Ciulom , a
moiintingtoi between 30 and 40,000, under the
command if Vivas, tiad also pr-*ceeded t > join
the main hotly. 'I he army of Arragon, winch
contiutK d to advance, had been strengthened by
great* umbers of •recruits who Hocked voluntu
riiy iron all parts of tint pr i> ince, to share in t ,c
glofy which vi.s expected so-m to result from tnc
join1 exert >ns of tlie patriotic forces.
7’htse accounts were f» -ought by tlie V/indsc

St. And* ro Private l.-u» rs from St Annvro, of

cribe the Frcneii army as being in great want of

and the answer ot our government, have been
from the beginning subjects of anxious curiosity
and speculation. Among the various opinions
hazaidtd upon tbtm, the following account of
then substance is considered the most worthy of
notice 1 lie oilier, it is said, was to the follow*
ingeflbrl: that we “should acknowledge jn

Much abuse hss been burled upon Mr. JefTer
ar.n, by the English prints, which we are pcr»ua-|
<Vd would have been spared, had the Editors
•mule themselves better acquainted with the situ
ation in which the laws of America h d placed
the President. The continuance or removal of
tne embargo, docs not vest with Mr. Jefferson.
At the cl«».c of last Congress, he was empower
ed to take off the embargo, provided peace was
restored to the contending powers of Europe,
or the anti-commercial edicts of the European
governments should be rescinded ; m ither of
these events having taken place, the President of
the United States cannot repeal the embargo act
without exerting a “ vigor beyond the law,” for
which he would be in danger of impeachment by
his fellow-citizens. These Editors must, surely
have regarded Mr. Jcllcrson m the same light as
lliev do the Autocrats of the European continent,
whose will is law, at whose nod slaves tremble,
and sit whose command armies march to the
work of blood and desolation who dispose of
millions of human beings by a treaty, just as if
they were so many cattle. Although the people
of France, Russia, Turkey, &c. may have noth
ing to do with the laws but to obey them, this is
not the case in England and America—The king
of Greut-Bi itain is tmund by the acts of the Le
gislature as well as the meanest of our citizens. |
Who would not think a foreigner extremely ig- i
norant of our laws and constitution, who should
blame his majesty because lie did not repeal any
particular law The power of making and re
pealing the laws is vested in the nni-!ia?n«*nt of
our country In Ameren, the Congress possess
that power : they passed the embargo laws, and
we confess we shall not be surprised to find them
disposed to maintain them, should the circum
stances of Europe continue as they are. Ame
rica, as an independent state, possesses the right
to choose whether she will or will not have any
foreign relations. If an intercourse with Ameri
ca bo desirable to this country, it behoves our
rulers to reconsider their conduct, and see how
far they have, by their orders in council, inter- j
rnptcd that intercourse, and do every thing in
their power to restore it.

GEORGIA: Savannah, December 28.
The British government bug Sandwich, anch
ored oft’Tybce on Saturday evening last, from
Nassau, and lieut. Foley, her commander, ac
companied by a midshipman, came up to tli« city
the same night. About 2 o’clock the next day, I
capt Armstead, commanding the corps of the
United States Artillerists stationed here, having
satisfied himself that the officers were in town,
ami the brig within our waters, dispatched capt.
Houston of the infantry in quest of them, with the
following note :
“ Savannah, Dec 25.
“ I understat'd that you belong to bis Britan
nir m je-ity’.s br.g Sandwich, which is now vio
lating the proclamation ot the President of the
United States, «her; in be orders, that no British
ship of war-hull enter tlie waters and harbors

This note was deliver.d t" lieut. Foley. Soon
after, Mr. Wallace, the British Vice-consul in j
this place, sent the following replv :
"Savannah, Bcc.25.
“ SIR,
I.ieut. Foley has just handed me a letter from
you, addressed to the Officers of his m. josty’s
brig Sandwich, in which you order them to de
part immediately from town. I have die honor
to inform you that the Sandwich, brought official
dispatchcH to me, on his majesty’s ; «-r\ ice, for .
the purpose of carrying away the British prize,

tions and deaths, left without hands to navigate j

ed upon the collector without delay, and stated
his business, and his intention of taking bis de
parture in consequence of the information he
had received.

James Wallace.
Capt A. B. Armstead.
In the mean time captains Armstead and Hons- .
ton waited on the collector, who informed them
that the consul and an officer hud called on him
that morning to apprise him of the arrival of the !
Sandwich, and that her object in coming hither !
was to make enquiry respecting a Spanish Fe
lucca, a prize to the British brig Fire-fiy, which
put into this port in distress in August last, whose
cargo had been forfeited for a breach of the rev
enue laws, and the felucca herself libelled for
seamans’ wag' ., |
Capt. Armstead conceiving that sufficient time
had elapsed For iicut. Foley to accomplish his
busiuess, and that both his entrance and his stay
here was a violation of the laws of the L. Slates
which it became capt. A’s duty, in the present
instance, to enforce, about three o’clock sent a 1
! second note by capt. Houston, accompanies! by.
a detachment order, of which the following ,u e j
copies :
“ Dec.mber 25. i

Capt. Houston found lieut.'Foley at dinner at
Mr G. Amleisoids and after requesting an inter
view, informed him of the nature of his mission,
und presented him with capt Armstead’s note.
Permission was asked for lieut. F. to finish his
dinner. Cap*. H. stated that his orders were pre
emptory, and v ould not admit of it. Lieut. F.
and his midshipman were then conducted to their
boat. Before departing, capt- II. enquired if
lieut. F. hud any answer to make to capt. Arm
sU ad’i; note. He replied, that he had not time
to write ; but wished capt A. to be informed,
that his orders should be strictly complied with j
| promising to repair directly wn board his vessel,
! and proceed to sea with all possible dispatch.
He left town about half past three o’clock in the
afternoon on Sunday.
mue ntier uiisk, capt. Houston was mmmi
ed, that lieut. Foley* instead of going to his hng,
as he promised, had gone on board of a vessel at
