ThoAtondon Courier of 2dl>rrrr,bcr says—
** Intelligence is said fn Have reached government
wif * plan formed by Buonaparte to throw new #!>
stack* in the way of' the ev|jcried adjustment of our
nces with the Unit tel States. Immediately af
diKren
ter,hi* arrival at Pi.rts he called a merting «f his
ministers, at which the Rutnian and Danish jimbas
aadort assisted, fflr the purpose of detising the roost
effectual pie.ms of inducing America-to join in the
Continental league against the naval power and com.
mercial Interest of Great Britain. The lending ide.
which suggested itself, Is stated to have been the
closing of the ports of 'Russia, Sweden and Denmark,
■gainst thg,Aroerican flag, upon the principle of the
facilities which it continued to afford to the TtrorUir
lion into the B.iltirof cui. nid produce, and the mu
factures r.f Knglond. With, the pro ise remits . f

We have no doubt that it has been determined that
