Letters, we understand, have been rereived from
the coast of France, dated so late as Friday last.
.They state, that the government had issued a new
decree, jirubibiiing the exportation of corn.—This
determination is said to have been adopted as a mea
* sure of state policy, and not in consequence of any
sudden or extraordinary enhancement of tile price
of that necessary article in France. The effects of
’'this measure can last bat a short time : the impor
tations that may be expected from theUoited States
,. wi)j more than compensate for any supplies we
could have derived from France.

PROROGATION OF PARLIAMENT.
The business of parliament was yesterday fi.
'* nished, and this day the prorogation took place.—
• The commissioners appointed by his majesty for
this purpose were the lord rbanrellm, the earl of
Liverpool, and lord Walsingham. The following is
correct analysis of his maj-sty’s spreeb, as deli
vered by hi* commissioners, to both houses of par
liament :
llis majesty states that, the business of the sessi
•' On being concluded, lie has thought proper to bring
f* it' to a ilose, liis majesty then congratulates both
houses upon the capture of Guadaniape, an event
• Which for the lirst time in the histnrv of.Great
Britain, has deprived Iranreof the last nt her pns
sessions in the West Indies; and also upon the suh
of the Dutch
sequent capture of the Dutch possessions in the
tame quarter of the globe—acquisitions whirhmust
inevitably deprive th5|gfisn>y of all further means of
annoyance to dur daily extruding commerce.
liffthi speech to th* frnus* of commons his ma
jesty thanks them for tfteSupplies which they have

whilst bis majesty thus exhorts both Houses of Par

which his majesty’s long rei^n, and the general loy

The following proclamation was issued at Rot
terdam on the 24th instant;—
Burgomaitership of the dtp of Rotterdam. The
bergontasler ol the city df Rotterdam, having learnt
with the utmost indignation, that yesterday even
ing, at the tine the French soldiers in garrison here
paraded in the great market place, and also at the
barracks, a more numerous assembly than usual, or
rather a very great multitude of people collected;
and that, not only by their violent pressure, urcoro
I panted by the bootings of mischievous boys, was
! the exercising of the soldiers very much impeded ;
■ but also that the result was, that the soldiers were
insulted and injured, and that they were pelted with
stones ; and a part of the said multitude having fol
lowed the soldiers to the barracks Irnm which they
afterwards retired : —
I Ana mat in tne mean time one of the French' of
j demon his way from the barracks to his residence,
i was wounded in ibehead with a stone, thrown by
one nf the-niol>: —
I l1 he burgomaster being on the one fiend anxious
that the said officer Should r^reHe that satisfaction
to which be is justly entitled ; and on the other,
that peace and tranquility which ought under all
cireuinstanres to he kept within this city, should oe
maintain-d, ahd those who sliewr a dispoiitmn m
interrupt, the saaie, be punished, and this city am)
corporation thus secured from those uir^uvemenres,
disorders end injurious consequences to which they
might otherwise he exposed : —
1 las thought proper, upon consulting the magis
trates, and with (be approbation of the He.tr Drost
| ot this quarter, to offer, and he hereby offers a re
| wind of one thousand Carolus guilders to the person
I who shall give sui h information a3 shall lead to the
apprehension and conviction of the perpetrator of
the criminal 3ct above mentioned, anil further a re
ward of 300 guilders for the discovery of the insti
gator of the insult*, or any person who took apart
therein. Hie name of the informer shall,.if requir
ed, be concealed.
I he burgomaster takes this occasion to warn all
and every individual, in the most earnest manner, to
abstain from flocking together or assembling in
crowds in any place, or places within this city ; and
mere especially to guard against so assembling at
the barracks, in the great market, atid all places
where there may be French soldiers or custom houw
officers. . *
He further charges them,, neither by looks, de
portment norgistures, much less by words or deeds,
to offer any insult; nor to use reproachful language,
or expressions tending to a breach of the p»ace ; nor
to he guilty of the slightest outrage, by hooting at,
or pushing against the French military officers, sol
diers, and custom house officers ; butoo ilte contra
ry, that they treat all of them with every degree ol
respect. Inasmuch as every person who shall, in
future, he found molesting, oi in any way obstruct
ing the soldiers in garrison in this city, or com
mitting any excesses, shall he punished for surh of
fences, according to the laws ol the empire, and the
state of the case, e»tn to the extent of capita) pu

Extract of a letter frim an American gentleman in
Paris,'dated May 31, received at Netv-l'ork.
“ Things are doily growing wuse, and my hope*
which from the first were feint', 'We entirely extin
guished. There is a report in circulation, that an
order has lieen sent to Bordeaux, to sequester any
American funds which may be in the hands of the
merchants of that place. This may not be well
founded, hut it will not surprise me. The officers
of government are extremely vigilant in frustrating
all partial aitmigeuients. In Dunkirk there has
lately been two cases of ships raptured by priv«
taers, who compromised with the raptors, ope of
which was the America nf Philadelphia, and the
master paid the captors 100,DUO tram s, and imme
diately taking charge of his ship, she was seized by
the officers of government, and sequestered. in
short, i do not see any piosprct of any American
property under seizure in this country being reieas
* IMPORTANT.
A report prevailed at Halifax on the 23d, that
the British government bad rotnmunemlrd ttieform
of a new treaty to the American cabinet, which
had been reject®--and this report was considered
as corrnbore.tedlij the sailing of the Packet direct

Halifax as usual at this season.— [Bostonpaper.

Capt. Story, arrived at New York from Liver
pool, says, that Mr. Morier, tbe new appointed Br«
tish charge de atiaires, lor America, was to sail
Irani Portsmouth on the 24t'i June, for Ameiica, in
the fiigate \entis, and that Mr. Jackson was to re
turn m the Venus.
Buonaparte's decree of March 22, I8l0, for the
confiscation and sale of our vessels and cargoes
withm the ports ni his empire and those of hie vas
sal slates, is abundantly confirmed by the arrival
at Baltimore. . Even the Whig admits the fact, but
then the ingenious an j profound editor of that re
nown-id paper has in a lucky moment discovered
some reasons which extenuate if they do not justify
the sweeping rapines of the imperial jacobin. That
; patron ol mobbing and gouging, and of all the arts
and embellishments of a sovereign and plnlosophi
I cal people, insinuates,
I 1st. That the curious correspondence which has
[ recently come to light, between the president, &c.
and Mr. Erskine, had been industriously circulated
on the European continent by the British govern
i ment, even selpre it was laid before parliament,
with a view to injure our commerce, by force of the ‘
opinions of the president and bis ministers! And,
2d. 1 hat that artful and mischievous government
transmitted it, in all probability, to Buonaparte
himsell, who in consequence, and to oblige the Bri
tish nation, which he greatly and justly admires,
passed the decree, by which our vessels and cargoes
are.ordered to be sold, and the proceeds thereof pla
ced in the Imperial chest. '
If at any lime or under some circumstances it is
moral, expedient, or otherwise proper lor one nation,
i our own for instance, to root out and utterly to ex
terminate another, rs it not the duly ot the United
Slates to clap an extinguisher upon Great Britain,
for she not only according to our ablest and must
unprejudiced editors and others, impresses our sea
man, plunders our property, and kicks and cud's us,
but carrying on a most well-concerted and diabolical
conspiracy with Napoleon, she induces bun to do
so likewise.
Sensibly, however, as the sagacious and temper
ate editor ot the Whig has arcuun,led, generally, ior,
the confiscation and selling Decree of.hts R.yaland
imperial Majesty of all the ** Democrats” ot France,
he has not, and this we regret, noticed the ear poet
facto operation ol that uterciiul instrument.
The decree bears the date of March 22, 1810,
but its operation is not, like that of ordinary taws
and decrees, prospective: it goes back to the date
ot our non-intercourse law of the preceding year,
and directs, that all American vessels .and cargoes
which have come within his dominions, or within,
of course, hia vassal stales ; that is to say, within
the ports of the European continet since the dale—
of what? the decree? no, but-ul nor non-inlet*
course law, shall be sold, &c. If the British induc
ed Napoleon to du ibis also, then I s»y that our
gun boats should no longer be kept either in corn
ti Ids or dry docks. Nor would I be content m let
ling loose these terrible instruments of war. 1
would accompany them wills Counsellor Sampson'*
