The St. Miehaels arrived at Baltimore
on Saturday last from L'Oricnt, which she
left the 2hst August, bringing dispatches
both from Mr. Pinckney and Gen Arm
strong.
The contents will doubtless be made
known to Congress, which is soon to meet,
with anvfurther communication which may
be previously received. In the mean time
there is reason to believe that no final deci
sion had been exPressed by either ofthe bel
ligerent governments, on the appeal made by
the president to the j us'tice & policy of rescind
ing their illegal edicts, under the authority
vested in him by the act of congress, to sus
pend in whole or in part the embargo laws.
Notwithstanding the manifest interest and
sound policy which plead with France, to
concur in the equitable views of the United
States, her infatuated attach ment to the par
ticular system she has adopted against her
enemy discourages a reliance, at least on" her
' setting the example of changing it.
It is understood, that appearances were
at first favomble to the expectation that the
British government would yield to the un
ohjectionable arrangement contemplated by
the President of a revocation of the orders
of council as they regard the U. States, and
ss of the embargo as regards Great Britain ;
ss and that there was moreover a disposition
s indicated to resume the aﬀair of- the Chesa- '
; peake, with a view to some eﬀective step
' towards its accommodation, particularly the l
restoration of the seamen still detained in
captivity, to which it was admitted there
could be no reasonable Objection. At a lat
eer date, the apparent disposition to concur.
in the contemplated arrangement had under—
gone a change. Difficulties were started as
unexpected as they were irrelative and in
auspicious. \Vhether* further explanation
and reﬂection would lead to the result due 1"
to the fair and friendly views of the United ?
States must soon be known. As theoﬂsier
to remove the embargo as relates to Eng— _
land on her rctevoking herorders as they re
late to the U- States, leaving the - embargo
in force as. to France if she adheres to her .
illegal decrees, takes away absolutely the ss_
sole pretext on wsshichthe Britishctorders are!
expressly founded, to wit; the ac'quiescence
of she Usi. States int. sie French decrec ; and _

An American vessel having entered a
' port in Spain, previous to sithe commence
ment of hOStilities by the patriots against
' the enemy, may proceed from such port
with a cargo the growth and produce of
; Spain, direct to a port in the U. S. without
