ot his employers.
That of late he has been deaf laced in a
detgraceful manner, and E put into his

by n,any of our writers thus. Despatch.
I hat your petitioner is greatly desfueused,
extremely deaafifiointed and marvellously
disconcerted, to see himself treated with
such desresfiect. after his long and desenter

Ireland, while Ena native of England ; mat
nc is a member of the republican and E a
member of the ftderal parte.
That your petitioner is far from wishing
to raise any desturbance, or have any per

to be reinstated in his former place : and

PUBLIC DINNER.
Yesterday a dinner was given to General
sfrmslrotig, our late minister at the court ot
St. Cloud, by the citizens of New York, at
the Washington Hotel. Nearly 200 gentle
men partook, of the entertainment, amongst
whom were the following public characters:
the vice president of the U S and seveial
members of congress ; the mayor and recor
der of the city ; the U. St rites 6c state district
attornie3 ; judges Livingston, Spencer, and
Yates ; commodore Rogers, colonel Williams,
major Stoddard, and the principal navy and
military officers on the New York station ;
the Ute mayor of this city (Mr. Clinton )co!
R .tgeis, and many other private gentlemen
of the first respectability were also among
the guests. The dinner was provided bv
Mr Kent in a superb style, and was one of
the most sumptuous and splendid ever wit
nessed in the city. It exhibited a proud
display ot patriotic gratitude lor public ser
vices, and an honorable proof that republi
cans are not always unthankful to public ser
vaiits and benefactors.
In the manly and dignified deporment of
this minister, while maintaining the rights
and honor of his country, in a clime where
fight and honor have so little weight, and
rapacity, injustice and vsnaliiy so univer
sally prevail, and where he was surround,
ed by difficulties and dangers sufficient to
overcome the firmest resolution, the citi
Zens of New York perceive abundant came
of pride and approbation The welcome he
has received anvuig them must convince the
world that but one sentiment and one mind
prevails with them on the subject ot French
aggressions, and that nothing can b - more
idle and contemptible than the insinuations
oi French influence in this coun'rv A »pt
rit of ind'-pend.-nce and attachment to na
tional interest and reputation, predominated
on .his occasion. And the encomiums be
sttiwed on this representative of his country,
distinguished no less by his ability than his
hdelity in the high and important duties of
his mission, were equally honorable to the
liberal and wealthy citizens and meichanis
ot New York, and the enlightened and
' irtuous administration whose agent and
minister he hassoemphatieally proved him
self.
The following toasts were drank, in the
course ol the entertainment, with enthusiasm
and applause t
1 1 he Constitution of the U States.
2. '1 lie President of thetj. States.
3. 1 he memory of Washington.
“*• Tiie Judiciary of the U. Suites.
5. The Navy of the IT. States
G The Army of the U States.
7 The Governor of the State of New.
Y.,i !c.
8. Peace. May we long continue to ex
hibit with honor the singular specta
cle of a nation at peace with the whole
world.
9. Agriculture. Our permanent source of
wea. h, may it flourish until the (J S. like 1
Sicily of yore, becomes the granary ot the i
world. 1
10. Manufactures. No nation is complete
ly independent until it can clothe as well us I
Jced its people.
11. The several states of the Union. May
they try to rival each o.hcr only in the pros
purity of their ci izens.
12. The City oj jVew York—The empo !
rmm of the U. S. Muv it btemne the em
porium of the world.
13. I Tar. As it is utterly incompatible
with tint .felicity of a nation, may we never
resort to it, but in defence of the rights and
honor of our country
14. South America. A successful issue !
to its efforts. May it soon feel the ge- *
n.al influence of liberty and independence. 1
15. Internal Improvements. May we
be enabled to turn the whole of our nati
iional i csources to objects wliich coniri.
i , e t0 lUtf permanent happiness of the peo~
}ple. 1 ;
I 3 6. Our Republican Institutions. May
they proveto produce the greatest sum of
prosperity to the nation, and may they be
eternal. 1
17. Universal Emancipation. May eve**
iy people be as tree as their happiness re
quires.
When the minister retired,
General Armstrong. 1 lie minister who
has dared, even in the face of despotic
power to maintain the rights and honor of
lus country.
When the Vice-President retired,
(xcoTtgc Clinton. His honors are the re**
ward ot private virtues a d public services.
We are assured. s:Us an Orleans paper
that the governor of Pensacola (Folk) is
marching for Bayou Sarah and Baton Rouge
a* the head of the troops which could be col’
lected at the seat or his government. ”l'lie
Choctaws and Tulapouches have taken up
arms, and ranged themselves under his ban j
net s. We learn by a person of veracity hat I
the militi • of the opposite shore of the L kt-s
have received orders to hold themselves in
readiness to march.
The following is an extract of a letter from
a very intelligent American gentleman
now in Jiuro/ie :
“ I cannot but flatter mvself that the re
vocation by the French Emperor of the
Berlin and Milan decrees, though condiu.
onal as it is, indicates a change of system
which will relieve us at least from a part of
the oppressions and vexations under which
our commerce has so long labored, and from
the dangers with which it is still hreaten
ed. Some of our countrymen heretofore
have most vehemently, and you know how
erroneously, pretended that in .hat series
ot outrages which we have suffered from
both the great maritime belligerent pow
ers the first example was set by France_
1 am curious to know now they will be af
Reeled by seeing the first step towards a re"
turn to justice and a sense of right actually
taken by France. If this example is fol
lowed by England, of which we have had
from her so many and such solemn proinis
es, we shall at least once more have reason
to expect some security loour property, and
some respect for our rights upon the ocean.
But it the war of commerce has really-been
given up, (as, if England revokes her or.
dels of council and new blockade principles,
it evidently has been ) there will be nothing I
left about which they can long contend, and !
we shall probably have a peace before the
next spring.”—A at. Lit,
