Account of the great progress the French have
made with their Batteries, notwithstanding the
opposition and efforts of the Spaniards 8c Cnglish
—to-day tor the first time they directed their
pieres against the city, and have thrown three
321b. bulls into it and not fifty yards from tlie mar
ket place or place de St Joan Dedeos, these three
aru all that have been tin own, which 1 suppose
were done with die design of ascertaining the
dhtaAcfe they could cast a ball. I am sorry to
add that from St Catharine a few days past they
threw a shot under die Admiral’s bow. and 1 am
informed by the officers of the Atlas,that a shell
lmrstinlhe air which would have been ou board
ol her but for that circumstance.
** I also regret to state, that the French are
strongly fortified at the Trochodera, and they
have a strong battery behind Matagorda, of a
bout 70 pieces, which, w lieu opened upon Fort
Pontalcs, will render it untenable in two hours ;
and they will be able to sweep the beach. It is
reported that the French have cost mortars at Se
ville, that will tin ow 2000 toises, and it is but
li^AI to the city from Matagorda.”
Another letter, dated Sept. 28.
** I send you two of the iast papers,as you will
observe fas a declaration of the Cortes, and that I
they continue the regency, as we say, pro. tern —
Yesterday the French threw three shot into the I
ci*y, being the first they had directed at us, as
they h:;ve been constantly engaged in erecting
their batteries, and have hardly returned the fire
that has been kept up on them. They have also
thrown shot us far as the flcel-r-but us yet have
done no injury.”

BY THE KIAG.
As the chtirts to whom the examination of the
captured vessels belong, have already been or
der, d the 21st act of the privateer law, that
the should begin the same, within twenty four
hou s, and that they shall as soon as possible fi
nisli the examination, we hereby order them a
gain to take care that the vessels, crew and pas
sengers are all examined at the latest in six days
after capture; and that, in consequence thereof,
they are, after this time is elapsed, permitted to
communicate with the shore.
If the court should find it impossible to finish
the examination within the limited time, the same
must immediately give notice thereof to the rr.a- i
gisti ates who are to choose another man for their
assistance.
If a captured ship is liberated by the judg
ment of that court, and the captured are satisfied
with the sentence and publish it, the captors
must immediately appeal, if they mean to do so,
within the 24 hours, 8c give their declaration
thereof to the judge w here the judgment is pub
lished, to him who is to inform the prize court
thereof.
The captors must, under such circumstances,
for the indemnity which may be acknowledged
to tire capped by our admiralty courts, apply to
the prize court, within six days after the appeal, I
and give sufficient bonds either for half or one i
fourth of the value, as our prize court may deem |
it proper. Should any doubt or dispute arise as
to the sufficiency of the security given, the
same is to be adjusted by the prize court, with
appeal in twenty tour hours, and the security
must then be given in the 24 hours following.
If the appeal is declared, and the security
given in the manner directed, Men the documents
are to be sent from the prize court, to our bi aid
of Admiralty, and they are not leturned until
. the cargo is divided, as a private arrangement
between captured and the captors is not per
mitted from the lime the captors are known to
the court; or tliat adjudgment may have been
given ; and they have declared to appeal, U give
bonds. They are also forbidden to make any ar
rangement witu the captured.
If a vessel is once cleared by the prize court,
with or without expences, and the capt. wishes
to dispose of the vessel and cargo, he may do so
notwithstanding the captors’ appeal, on giving i
bonds lor the value id' the property. To obtain
this he must apply to the court in the place
where bis vessel is carried. They cite both the
captured 6c captors, or their agents, and re
ceive the declaration whether they are satisfied,
with the value fixed, if none of ti.c parlies are
discontented, the court orders the captured
within a fixed time, to review at his own expence
11 the captor looks on the security given by the
captured insufficient, the dot^imeuta must hi
immediaiely sent to the prize com t, who within
24 hours must give sentence from which there
can be no appeal
The captors are not permitted to unload the
▼easel without giving bonds for one half or the
one fourth of the value of the l«me and cargo,

INDEPENDENCE of SPANISH AM E PICA.
The extract published in the Whig of yesterday,
resecting the favorable disposition of France
to vlie independence of ttie Spanish Colonies,
though very satisfactory, is Car from being so
explicit as the following official exhortation
lrom Joseph, in which he conjures the people
to declare themsel ves independent. Ol' all the
events consequent on the revolutions in Eu
rope, the independence of South America is
most important to the N- w World In im.»
gination we anticipate thousands of benefits
from it •, although we do not suppose that a
people, over whom tyranny, civil and religious,
has so long held controul, can he capable of
perfect freedom all at once. But independence
will enlarge their minds, and prepare them for
a better state.—B. IVkig.

ACADE.V Y OF THE FINE ARTS.
This institution, to which has lately been asso
ciated the Society of Fine Artists, held their an
nual meeting last evening in the old College Hall.
Besides several public bodies, and distinguished
character, the Academy was honored with the
presence of a very numerous assemblage of La
dies and Gentlemen. Mr Hopkinson, having
been requested to prepare a discourse for the oc
casion, delivered one replete with instructing and
important factsennd observations He entered
laigsly, and with great ability, into a comparative
view of the progress of the arts in this country •
and reprobated with becoming severity, the ab*
surd idea, that our clime and political institutions
are inimical to the growth and culture of gunius.
The satisfaction evinced was unbounded ; & he
concluded amidst universal applause.
The President of the Academy, theh conferred
on several artists present, the honors of fellow
ship in the institution.
Although the orator, in a wide range or facts
and observations, did ample credit to the ingenu
ity and talents of the American character, we
think it may not be improper, while on the sub
ject, to invite the public attention, to a receiyt
improvement, which, as connected with theytr,f *
of Art*, promises incalculable benefits—-we copy
It from the Boston Repertory, of the 9th inst. as
lollows :—thil Gag.
IMPROVEMENT IN ARTS.
COPPER PLATES.
Some very valuable discoveries have lately be»n
made in copper plates, by Mr. Jacob Perkin*, of
Newl.uryport, a man already well known for iwa
ny valuable inventions.
We have at our Office an impression of a copy
slip, taken from a copper pluts, after the plau
had Riven upwards of 10,000 impressions ; and
this plate, as we undentand from information that
we can rely upon, was originally calculated to
give, in the old nnule, at most 6,000 impressions
The hair lines are txtremely well preserved, and
the plate does not bear the marks of more wear
than 1,000 impressions taken in the old way
would have produced. From this and other sp -
cimtns, we conclude that a copper plate, if used
on Pei kins'), plan, will last three or four times as
long as if used in the old mode.
Mr. Perkins also saves nearly half the labour
of taking the impression. 1 he pres.c*man instead
«f walking at every impression from’one end of
the tabic to the otner, remains nearly stationary ;
and there is no need of removing the plate < orv
ut every impression to be heated.
'I he wear of copper plates for Philadelphia a
lone, cannot be estimated at less th n g 70,000
pei annum That of the Cyclopedia of Messrs.
H adford and Iskeep, is suppose J to exceed g 5,
000 every year The laving therefore in tha< city
cannot lie less, in wear of pi .to, than g 4 j.OtiO—
in saving of labor to take impressions, g 10,
000—annual saving for Philadelphia alon , R 55 ’
000.
It is not to bo feared that these improvements
will throw many engravers out of employ, for it
must have a tendency to augment tne quantity of
work in proportion to the saving it produces.
Sue/ Plate* for general use.
We have in our offioc an impression, on the
back of which is a certificate that it was taken.
after the plate had given upwards of 60.000 im
pressions. We also have smith' r impression sta
ted to have been t ikon after 40O.UCM impression.*
Neither of these Plates appears to have begun to
wear We understand that the cost of Perkin.*’#
ateel plates is less than three time* as much as
the coat of copper pi ites, equally well engraved :
and yet it appeursfinxii experiment that they will
last much more it.an 1,000,000 of impressions
It follows of course that Perkins’s steel plates
will be of great service fir all engravings of which
a great many impressions are wanted, such as for
hibU's and oilier prints of standard use, for maps
and engravings of school books, for children’s
picture books, for bank bills, tor public d'»cu
ments, for popular portraits, as of Washington,
Sic. for copy dips and for a variety of other tu
gl aring!,. A book of copy slips is in our office,
which has been executed in a very superior style,
on Perkins's steel plates, by Fairman of Newbu
ry port.
We understand that these valuable improve
ments have been secured to Mr. Jacob Perkins
by patent. They undoubtedly will much advance
the domestic manufacture of what is called cop.
per plates We sincerely hope that Mr Perkins
may reap a small portion of the benefits which I. •
so well deserves by the service he has rendered
to the country.
Bant Bills.
Another invention of Mr. Perkins also deserves
mention in thi.se notices 1> is the substitution of
steel pi ites in place of copper plates. Ilm sys
tern for bank b’tls is developed in Perkins’s Hank
bill l est, w iich can be had at the bookstores —
rh*' beneficial effects of it are already very sensi
bly fi lt in this commonwealth We understand
that he has already printed upwards of 338,000
bill-, in pu-suance of an act of the legislature, or
deriog the adoption of his plates after the 1st of
July, 1809. an l as far us we can learn, not even an
attempt I* s yet been made to counterfeit the
check tte has on the back ofevery bill of 5 dollars
and upwards
As to his small bills, a few have been produced
in imitation of his ftuo and three dollar bill { but
tlie imitation is so poor, so miserably executed,
that it cannot be said to have ever obtained circu
lation, and has only served to shew the vanity of
the attempt and the futility of the pursuit. All
the banks in this commonwealth have had bills
struck, from these plates, except the Boston and
Union bank.
It has been objected to Perkins’s bills, that
their appearance was clumsy.-If beauty had
been his only object, a simple bill, with aome fine
engraving would have been made by Mr Perkins
But the all-important object was toprevent conn
terfeits ; an object compared with wtiich, that of
beauty was of very trifl'ng consequence A pros
pect of profit induces the counterfeiter to go to
work, but a tolerable imitation of Perkins’s bills,
in which he introduces several distinct kinds of
art, will cost a great deal of labor and expence,
which a counterfeiter, if there were no other ob
jection, would, i>erhap£, never find it convenient
to advance.
NEW ART OF TANNING.
The Lyconium new art of tanning, lately dts*
covered by J G. Wood, and Benjamin Wood o*
Vermont, the 6oie inventors of the same, for
which they have obtained I.ettars Patent from
the United States, embrace the following advan
tages, to wit:
Calf skins tanned in 48 hours.
Upper Leather in 4 days.
Sole leather in 20 days
after the same is fit for the bark ; and will make
better leather, with half the cost that is required
to tan in the old way—Washingtonian.
New York, November 14—Messrs. Living
ston and Fulton have commenced a third steam
boat for Uie North River, which is to start in M iy
or Jftne next. We understand that the engine for
this boat is to be constructed with the late En
glish improvements, which give near twice the
I power, with one quarter the weight of machine
ry, undone half the consumption of fuel. With
these advantages it is calculated she will run from
six to six and a half miles au hour.—TuhKe Ad
vertiser.
CnA.ni.ESTOn, Nov. 13- A WHALE.--—
In boarding the ships in the offing yesterday,
our boat fell in with the carcase of a rl»«H Whoj;>
fl /ating on the sui face of the water, about 6 or
8 miles to the eastward of the bar—it appeared
to be about 70 or 80 feet in length, and was sur
rounded by a great number of Sharks, some of
them very large ones, who appeared to be feast
ing upon their fellow tenant of the ocean with
great satisfaction.
The U. S. ship Wasp was close in with the
bar yesterday—the U. 5*. brig Nautilus, which
has been in the offing several days, sailed on
Sunday evening for Wilmington and Norfolk.
