March 19. By an arrival at this
port yesterday, advices are re
ceived of war having been declar
ed by the dey of Algiers against
France. Dispatches from the A
merican consul at Malaga have
been brought, by the Little Rob
ert, for government.
The account of the opening of
New-Orleans has not been con
firmed by the last advices from
Newyork. A report prevailed
that the French had landed in
Florida.l
It has been a custom with Eu-;
ropean despots to have Te beums
sung and prayers offered up to
heaven for the gaining of a battle,
in which tboufands of human be
ings have been deflroy&d—every
American ought to return grate
ful thanks that our national coun
cils were endowed with so much
wisdom as to reje& the proposals
of the party opposed to them for
entering into an unprovoked con
test, accompanied with death, ;
deftrudion of morals and every|
other misery,•
The account of the loss of the
American frigate Adams, appears
to want confirmation. If it should
unfortunately be ^confirmed, we
hope the federaliffi will not lay it
to the charge of the adminiftra
'The Tripoline fauadron of
$ small vessels, which were cruising
in the Mediterranean, for the
purpose of capturing our mer
chantmen, are commanded by
one Lisle, formerly in tijb British
service ; it seems the crews are
dressed as British sailors, it is a
question if the greater part are
not the countrymen of Life
The federalifts are so much
disappointed in their clamours
far <war andinfurreaion that they
vent all their spleen on the Span
ish minister by insinuations of col-
Uuffions, and such other worthy
* methods of detraction.
If we had a file of some one of ;
the federal prints for a few yearsi
back, we might be induced to
make out a lift of all the plots and
alarms which have been manu
fa&ured by the men of virtue
and talents—we know it would
be rather long, and are the more
surprised that frefh ones are lis
tened tty as to hoping for a
mendtnerit from the federal fcrib
biers, we have given up that, they
appear to vie with each other for
the credit of creating the most a
larm from the flighted cause.
Aurora.
Pbilad. March 24. A letter from
Cooperftown, in the state of
Newyork, states, thata putrid,fe
ver is now raging in that village.
Several inhabitants have already
fallen victims to the disease, and
others are dangero rfly ill.
On the lad Tuesday of April
next, an election will be held in
Ithe 7th Congreffibnal Diftii& of
the state of Newyork, composed
of the counties df Green and Ul.

Amberft, March 31. A most
HORRID DEED was commit
ted at Stoddard, in this State;
on Saturday, the 17th inst. A
Mrs. Wright of that place who is
supposed to have been luddenly
seized with a fit of diftradion,
from previous depression of spir
its, took her three youngest chil
dren, in the absence of her hus
band, and led them about 60 rods
from the hou^ where (he caught
the youngest by the heels, and
put a period to its exigence by
dashing it against a rock. The
I other two not being so easily
l handled, (he attempted to dispatch
1 them by beating them on the
head with a stone; but fortu
; nately miffiing her aim, the chil
) dren escaped, and alarmed the
family. When her husband ar-
I rived he found her near the place
{where (he had committed the
;(hocking aft, with the murdered
child in her arms, in a puddle of
water. What has been done with
her we have not learned.

' NEW ORLEANS. We have hot yet the
positive cobfi.matioa of this port being again
open to the American trade— but we have the
French Minkler's (Pichon) assurances, in
addition of thole of the Spanish Minister, that
Louisiana was ceded'to and accepted by the
French government, " fubjea to such stipu
lations as are contained in cur treaty with that
power" (Spain.) The French minister has
alfefrith the Spanifn, remooftrated to the In
tendant and the Governor of Louifi^na against
the witifiholdi^g cfthe^ight of depofit..Uis
therefore we think highly probable the right
is already or immediately will be restored.
IMPORTANT.
The following is copied from a
Kentucky paper of March 3d,
and is deserving much attention:
, The following very important
information was obligingly com
municated-to us this morning by
the hon. John Brown, who ar
rived from Washington City on
Tuefday evening . • Two dafe be.
fore he left the feat of govern
ment (which was on the 14th ult.)
Idifpatches had been received from
! Mr. Livingston, our ambaffado,
at Paris, in which it is stated, that
in consequence of a diplomatic
note presented by him on the fuh
je& of the late irregular proceed
ing at New Orleans, he received
assurances from the French min
ister of foreign affairs, that Fiance
would refpe<ft the rights of A
merica—that she had received
Louisiana from Spain, fubje& to
such Simulations as are contained
in our treatie&with that power, —
and that she wished to cultivate
with the Americans, a spirit of
harmony and good will. The
French minister further assured
Mr. Livingston, that as soon as
the firft consul arrived (who was
expected in Paris the next day)
an officialnote, containing these
sentiments, should be defoered
to him to forwardlo hisgovern
rnent. . ffl^
No doubt can be entertaffd
lof the authenticity of this ihtelli
gence, as Mr. Brown received it
from the president himfelf, and
has authoriled us to make it pub
lic. Mr. Jefferfon further observ
ed, that altho' the re-eftablifh
{ment of things on their former
footing, was^ll we had a right to
demand—experience has (hewn
it would hot be (efficient to en
sure the protection of the weftern
commerce, or to restore confi
dence to the minds of our citizens
—the government would there
fore make every exertion in its
power to obtain one entire fide of
the river Mifliffippi.
Os the probable success of such
a negociation, all are at liberty
to form their own conjectures—
but uncandid mutt be that mind,
and depraved the heart, that
could propose to raise the ftand
lrd of revolt against a govern
ment, which has not loft' a mo
ment to endeavour to redress the
grievances of which we justly
complain."

Remarkable Right of "pigeons,
Monday, April 4. This day in ^merable
flocks of pigeons have p?m# over this place,

of the fl)cks exuded many miles in length,
las far as the eydUhd ken, appearing atadif

I Such extra^mlry migrations of these birds
:ought to be deiced for the benefit of the nat

had come to Ufend the season in the Eastern
parts of the Upton, or in Novafcotia, but were
