It should be remembered that there are very strong reasons to believe that the Rochefort squadron was to have co-operated with the fleet now in the West Indies. By a comparison of dates it is evident that the first time the Toulon fleet left port, it was purposed that there should be a general coalition to effect some important end. The violence of the weather obliged the latter to return—whilst Massieu kept on his course, & prepared the way, by the consternation which was then excited for the subsequent attacks on the islands by a second arrival. Altho' there is much evidence in favor of the conclusion that the Rochefort squadron has left its station, and returned to France—yet that point is not placed beyond all doubt—and he may again appear to increase the alarm which must now be felt throughout all the islands. It cannot be disputed that if the fleets had formed a junction in February they would have probably injured the British islands much more than they will be able to do at present—it is true the English force is but small, and cannot resist the superiority of the enemy—18 sail of the line and 9 frigates, (especially if Massieu should unite with them) are a force irresistible; and which will successfully terrify the inhabitants, borrow their property, and then most probably retire—to reiterate the same manœuvres in another part of the world. The plan of which this expedition forms a portion—will be renowned in the history of this war, as a masterpiece of consummate policy in design, dexterity in its progress, and dispatch in performing the intentions of those who framed it.
The principal cause of the damage which may be done is the security of the British government; whilst they were boasting that every ship of war of France was safely lodged in harbor; they took no precautions to secure their colonies against the sudden attack of an enemy;—the whole of whose movements in times past has evinced the promptness with which he conceives and the decision & celerity with which he acts. The probability of the West Indies being the point of attack, will soon bring another British fleet into those seas, and although there is little ground to believe that this was seriously meant by Bonaparte to be the seat of war, yet if it has the effect to induce the ministry to order from Europe, a large maritime force for the protection of the islands; the object will be partly accomplished. When all the circumstances connected with this event are contemplated. It must be allowed to be in every respect one of the most unpleasant which could have occurred. It has now become undeniable that Bonaparte so far as the resources of the French Empire will allow him, is determined to humble the British; conscious that this was not to be attained by open war at sea, upon an extended scale, he uses every means to weary, alarm and exhaust them. During the two years of war, whilst the one has been constantly on the alert, and squandering money with the most lavish profusion, the other has been at ease, concentrating all its operations, and combining all its energies in preparing vessels of war, which although they cannot conquer, may immensely distress and annoy those whom they are commanded to attack; and when we consider the vast difference between the two countries, we must allow that fifty sail of the line in the hands of Bonaparte are a large force, which may change the whole face of the war.
The British in time of war are always in need of a very large number of fighting vessels to protect their trade. A very considerable portion of the English navy is constantly employed in convoying the merchantmen to and
from their particular places of destination: this lessens the disposable force of the country in a very great degree. But this is not the case with France, having little to do in the mercantile world and that principally through the medium of the United States, who carry for those engaged in exporting and importing, their vessels of war have no other engagements than to fight, attack or plunder their enemies, according to the views of the executive—for instance Massieu is ordered to the West Indies to commit all the depredation in his power, and to do every possible injury to the British trade. Cochrane is dispatched after him; but the work is finished, the weak islands are plundered, the vessels are captured and destroyed, and the enemy retired with the booty. But as a large quantity of property is waiting to be shipped to England, five men of war are a convoy to the fleet, leaving the islands in exactly the same defenceless state as previous to Cochrane's arrival. There is no fleet of merchantmen sailing from England which does not require a convoy; and that force must now be considerably augmented on account of the number of French ships out of port.
The anticipation of the news which the defenceless state of the West Indies authorised the merchants to expect, had previous to our last advices excited the most serious apprehensions and the most distressing anxiety. That all the trade with the islands will be entirely stopped when a full detail reaches London, is probably saying too much; but that it will have a tendency to damp the ardor, and to unnerve the vigor of commercial enterprise in a very great degree is so plain, as not to want any kind of argument to prove the fact. And if it is productive of tremor in London, we must suppose that it includes affairs of no trifling consequence with regard to the trade of the United States. The increase of ships of war in the West Indies, should excite the utmost vigilance in our health officers to hinder the importation of disease. That the ravages of war will be accompanied with the raging of disease is self evident, it requires therefore a more than usual care with regard to those vessels which arrive from any port in the islands. The seeds of disease are strewed so plentifully throughout the warm climates, that the most trifling irregularity will sometimes bring forth all the pains of those pestilential diseases, which are certainly increased if not engendered by the indiscretions of certain modes of living, and by indulgences altogether incompatible with the warmth in which we are obliged to live. This is one very important effect which it may be presumed will result from the additions of two large fleets in the West India seas, provided they stay any length of time, for it has always been found impracticable to restrain the common soldiers and sailors from excesses which frequently carry off the sufferer in too short a time to admit even of proper remedies being tried and administered.
It may be asked, whether any ordinance adding an additional time to the present quarantine regulations would not be of service, so far as the health of the city is at stake; an object of primary importance, and to which every thing else should submit.
But this idea alone will have a strong tendency to lessen the West India trade: the danger will be a prohibition to those who are employed in navigating the vessels; the risk will powerfully co-operate upon the mind of the merchant, and the detention at last in the quarantine ground, will all induce a diminution for a time, of this profitable branch of commerce.
The combined fleets have justly excited much terror in the West Indies. Expose to all the depredations of an enemy, willing to improve the advantage
es which they at present possess; they have no other alternative but to quietly submit to their fate, and make the compromise upon the best terms upon which they can effect it. It was much wished, and indeed many reports seemed to confirm the relation a little, that lord Nelson had been close after the enemy, as to render it highly probable that the time of their arrival among the islands, was so near each other that the plan of the combined fleet must must be frustrated. But intelligence via Boston, positively asserts that on the twenty second of April, twelve days after, they had left Cadiz Nelson had had not been heard of at Gibraltar which gives the French and Spanish admirals time to consult their measures and strike some blow which may produce a very lasting impression.
The quantity of troops on board, the rank of the officers commanding the expedition, and several collateral circumstances—all induce a degree of belief that Jamaica will not be omitted in their operations; and that that is indeed a prominent object in view, and which will repay the most unpleasant loss which an attack upon it might occasion. As the troops landed from the Rochefort squadron in the city of St. Domingo must have been insufficient for its defence and security against the blacks unless there were some grand attempt to be made it would be superfluous to send ten thousand men to the French West Indies, which are strongly guarded, & amply provided with every thing necessary to withstand the force which might be sent against them. That conquest in the case of Jamaica is the intention, if any attack is to be made upon that island at all can easily be demonstrated. There is no other island worth retention, there is no other island which offers allurements to Bonaparte's ambition, not that it will at all enrich the French nation, but it will be sensibly felt as a great drawback upon the trade and revenue, and nothing is more probable than that if a French force should succeed in obtaining possession of the island, the negroes and aborigines will immediately follow the example of their brethren in St. Domingo. On the subject of the W. I. most men are interested, and all with that affairs should take such a turn as to promote their individual advantage, this warps the judgement, and makes them believe that to be true which existed in their imaginations only, and to this may be imputed the immense quantity of floating opinions with regard to the commercial regulations of this country, and the manner in which they will be affected by these various movements. Those who have been employed in any branch of business, and have found it very profitable, seldom wish to quit it, and hence it is that in opposition to all the risk the trade with the Haytians is persisted in, and always will as long as any probability of remuneration exists;—but it can be demonstrated with very little trouble that in the aggregate there must be a very great loss; a trade which cannot be carried on without twenty-five per cent insurance is worse than none at all and although one may be a gainer, ten others or the under writers are losers.
NEW-YORK, June 17.
The ship America, captain Stetson, arrived last evening at the quarantine ground from Liverpool, which place he left the 12th of May. Captain S. brought no London papers later than the ship Ardent from Greenock.
Captain Delano who arrived last evening from Lisbon, is the bearer of dispatches for government.
Captain D. informs that the French and Spanish fleets doubled Cape St. Vincents on the 23d of April, and it was supposed they had gone to the northward, but no correct information had been received of their destination.
On the 3d of May, the only two British packets were dispatched from Lisbon to inform admiral Craig, in the Channel, of the movements of the French and Spanish fleets. On the 5th of May, 40 sail of British transports, convoyed by two men of war and 4 frigates, anchored in Calcutta Bay, a little to the southward of the Rock of Lisbon; they are part of the expedition that failed under the command of sir J. Craig, bound for Gibraltar and Malta, with troops for the garrisons. On the 8th of May, captain D. left the mouth of the river, and saw the fleet of transports crossing the bar, bound up to Lisbon Roads.
Captain D. further informs, that a war was shortly expected to take place between Portugal and France.

BALTIMORE, June 17.
The editors of the Baltimore American have been politely favored with the following extract from the log-book of the Maryland, capt. Murphy:
On the 6th June, at 5 P. M. got under way from Jeremie with the fleet, consisting of the following vessels—ships Neptune, Taylor, of Philadelphia; Maria, Calvert, do. schooner Superior, How, of Baltimore—[the above vessels were armed]—schooner Hetty, Stanly, do. Imperial, Everson, do. brig Isabella, White, do. brig Comet of Norfolk, and sloop Harriot of Portland. On the 8th, at about 8 P. M. the Isabella sprung a leak, and before they could stop it, had upwards of five feet water in the hold; the fleet gave every assistance possible, and in a short time pumped her out. The leak was occasioned by a rat hole under the starboard quarter, below the bends. On the 9th, Tortuga, bearing E. were chased by two French privateers, one of which sails very fast, and who came pretty near us, then hauled her wind and joined the other; at 10, they bore away again, apparently to bring the ships to action, but before they got within gun shot, discovered it would not answer, therefore hauled to the southward and westward, and left us. At same time the S. W. end of Henega bore north. On the 11th, passed Maguana, and at 9 A. M. we left the fleet in company with the schooners Hetty and Imperial. Same evening lost sight of the Hetty, she steering more to the westward. On the 13th, fell in with a small sail, which gave chase to us. It being thick and squally, we

A gentleman who came out in the brig Molly, captain Wheldon, from Guadalupe, has furnished us with the following memoranda, which he entitles, (Phil. Gaz.)
"News at Basseterre, Guadalupe, May 26, 1805."
"On the 22d inst. arrived at this port from Martinique, the French imperial schr. L'ene, of 6 guns, bringing information of the arrival at Fort Royal of a French fleet, consisting of 12 sail of the line, 6 frigates and 4 sloops of war, under admiral Villeneuve, from Toulon, together with 8 Spanish ships of the line, and several frigates, under admiral Gravina; forming altogether, 18 sail of the line, 12 frigates, 4 sloops of war, and sundry transports, having on board 18,000 troops, under the orders of gen. Lauriston (a creole of Pondicherry) first aid-de-camp of his imperial majesty Napoleon. On the receipt of this information, a general embargo was instantly ordered."
"On the 24th, two French frigates came to anchor at Basseterre, with general Lauriston on board, for the purpose of consulting with general Ernouf, the plan of operations against the British islands. The general remained there during that day, and in the evening departed with the frigates. The day following, very great activity was used in bringing down mortars, bombs, shells, etc. to the sea side, to be embarked on board the fleet. Two thousand artillerymen and engineers were to be taken from the garrison of Basseterre, to be joined to the force on board the fleet, making in the whole 20,000 troops."
"The first point of attack was said to be Trinidad, after which they would make a sweep of all the windward islands."
"The fleet reported, that about the time of their sailing from Toulon, the Brest fleet also had orders to put to sea, and proceed immediately to Jamaica; and it was reported a few days ago, from St. Thomas, that Jamaica was actually taken."
"The following are the names and respective force of the French fleet:"

BELLA HORRIDA BELLA.—For many years past the aspect of British affairs has not been so forbidding as at this moment. In spite of all her efforts and vigilance the fleets of the enemy have eluded hers, and strong in force, politic in design, and successful in enterprize, have now, probably within the reach of their grasp, a high compensation for the hazards they have encountered. Jamaica, the object of their aim is, by no means sufficiently shielded by a naval force to repel their aggressions; though the gallant Nelson may be straining every nerve, and spreading every sail to overtake them, the probability is, that before he reaches the West Indies, this island has fallen. The loss of property and of life to which such an event must give rise cannot be contemplated but with grief.

Outfacing truth is what the Aurora calls living down calumny: But has Mr. Jefferson done it? Why the votes for him were 162 to 14. If the votes had been all for him, this circumstance would not have altered the merit or demerit of his character one jot or tittle it would only have proved the force of delusion. But the amount of electoral votes he received does not prove the proportion of opinions. The only way to ascertain is by a direct vote, where every vote is counted directly for a President. Voting thus by districts, there is a possibility that a President may be elected by a small number more than one quarter of the votes; this can be mathematically demonstrated, thus: There are 176 districts; 89 make a majority; there are we'll say, 2001 votes given in each district; in 89 districts 1001 votes for Mr. Jefferson, and 1000 votes for Mr. Pinckney; in 87 districts all the votes are for Mr. Pinckney: but Mr. Jefferson may be chosen with the votes standing thus:
   For Mr. Jefferson 89,089.   For Mr. Pinckney 263,087.

The most prominent article of our last European intelligence is the address of the king of Italy to the constituted authorities of the kingdom. It collects many interesting events which are more pleasing, as they are more detached from the history which belongs to them. In this picture we view the condition of Europe meliorated, and we find such facts as deserve our attention as friends to the hopes of mankind. His majesty points, as with full conviction, to the moderation of France, as visible in all its policy. France evacuated Germany, and bestowed Venice on Austria. The political existence of Holland has been sacred Switzerland lives in its Cantons, and blessings continue to enrich Italy, in the separate majesty of its Kingdom which is never to be incorporated with France. In all these events, his majesty claims to have submitted the interests of France to the welfare of his neighbours. The present limits of France are considered as fixed, and in the same moderation with which France has begun, it will persevere. The whole is conceived with the strength of the emperor of France. Milan was built by the Gauls above 300 years before the christian era, and has since been besieged 40 times, and taken 20 times, and almost demolished four times. But from its sufferings, it has always recovered, and still employs its rivers and its canal to assist that trade which its arts vigorously maintain. It is in N. L. 45, 28, 10, and 6, 51, 15, E. L. from Paris. The inhabitants are given at 119,000, and it is the fourth city in Italy.
The Sardinian states on the continent, which lay near, in 1800, gave 3,190,184. And from 1774 to 1790, the increase was 230,000. It will be in the power of the king of Lombardy to combine the greatest advantages for the prosperity of this new seat of royalty. The Emperor left Paris for Milan, on the 28th March, and his holiness on the 3d of April.
Reports of the plague at Constantinople are abroad, in general terms, but in Servia the greatest distress continues from the indecisive measures which are adopted in that country. Nothing has yet been done to give an ascendancy to any party in that distracted country. As a singular specimen to commercial indulgence, it is affirmed that the porte has given special protection to the vessels of Prussia in the Mediterranean against the Barbary powers. The effect may be reckoned uncertain, should the passports appear. Could the Porte be held accountable for the depredations of these powers, the wars of Barbary might soon assume a new form.

I WISH that ***** was in chains in Tripoli, instead of captain Bainbridge and lieut. Osborne, and the other brave fellows who are in slavery there!—was an ejaculation fervently made, a few days since, by an American Tar, upon hearing of the capture, at our very bar, of the American ship Two Friends. Perhaps Jack expressed more than he really wished—upon enquiry, I learned that this honest fellow had once belonged to poor M'Neil's ship. I therefore received his expression with some grains of allowance, and did him the justice to believe that he had no serious desire to add to the number of our wretched citizens who are dragging out a miserable existence on the Barbary coast. An American sailor loves liberty too well, I hope, to wish any man deprived of it, although the negligence of that man may, in some measure, have occasioned its loss to others. And probably it is not asserting too much to say, that to the parsimony and negligence of our administration, do the
poor captives at Tripoli owe the loss of their liberty. In the communications of commodore Morris, we learn, that had the frigate Philadelphia been accompanied by a tender, she might, by going ahead, and sounding, have warned Bainbridge of the rock upon which he split—in all events, had the frigate been accompanied by another vessel, her crew would have been saved. Commodore Preble complained grievously of the insufficiency of his force. The present campaign, said that able commander, would have terminated, and terminated gloriously, the war with Tripoli, had I been furnished with a suitable force. After speaking of the bravery and prowess of his men, Preble adds, but our force is insufficient .—I wait for the arrival of the frigates promised to be sent long ago. In another letter, this neglected commander says, the tempestuous season approaches, and I must soon retire—retire without doing any thing, if no additional force arrives. He afterwards writes, that the ships so long expected had arrived; but the season for military operations had passed, and some of these ships were not in a situation for making them—one of them was without gun-carriages, &c. &c. It is pretty certain that if a sufficient force had been sent in time to the Mediterranean, instead of reading the gasconading letters published by Mr. Secretary Smith, saying that the walls of Tripoli would be knocked down, and the chains of Bainbridge and others would be knocked off, when an additional force should join Preble , we should have had our hearts gladdened by learning that all these fine things had been done. It is no less certain, that if our government had a good cutter to cruise along-shore, little privateers would not dare to molest, at the mouth of our harbor, vessels notoriously American. M'Neil has, for many years, commanded a packet, trading between Charleston and London, and is as well known to be an American packet, as the character of any ship that swims is known. The duties which would have been paid at our custom-house by captain M'Neil, had the privateer of "the enlightened government" permitted him to make an entry, would, probably, have amounted to twice as much as would purchase a good efficient cutter—but, at present, we have not a cutter for the protection of our trade; and of what use are gun-boats? Some time since, some of the advocates of the present administration exultingly declared, that however much the gun-boats might be laughed at, though differing from any thing that had ever been seen before, yet that they were well calculated for the purposes for which they were intended.—What those purposes are (if they have any relation to the defence of our ports) has become a general enquiry.

Alexandria Daily Advertiser.
FRIDAY, JUNE 21. Extract of a letter from captain Bridges, of the brig Hannah, of Newburyport, to his owner, dated Faya, April 6th, 1805. "I arrived here on the 31st ult. The day before I got in, I was fired upon in a most barbarous manner by an English privateer, and received 2 very severe wounds in the groin and thigh, which I thank God are not likely to prove mortal, although they will cost me several weeks of pain and anguish. In consequence of being disabled, and fruit being high and scarce I have sold my cargo for wines, and shall sail direct for Newburyport, as soon as my wounds will permit."
