LONDON, September 9. COMMERCIAL TREATY.
We are enabled to state (says a Paper of last night) from respectable authority, that the progress made in the Commercial Treaty now pending between Great Britain and France is so very considerable, as to furnish confident hopes of its being finally concluded in the course of next month. The delay which has taken place in this important arrangement is more to be attributed to the interference and intrigues of English subjects, who have engaged in manufacturing concerns and speculations in different parts of France, than to any misunderstanding between the two Governments. For the last three years, many of our manufacturers and artizans have contrived to emigrate and make settlements in the departments best calculated to promote their views. Of that number, those who possessed capital, and sunk it in their new undertakings, were naturally alarmed lest their interest should be affected, and their projects, perhaps ruined by the Commercial Treaty. They have accordingly exerted every art to raise a popular prejudice against any fair and rational system of commercial intercourse; and many of their memorials, addressed to the First Consul, have found their way in the Paris and Provincial Journals. The alarm spread by these representations has not been attended with the desired effect; and we understand that measures have been taken to prevent the publication of such memorials for the future. A gentleman belonging to a great commercial house in this country, who lately passed through Louviers assures us that several English weavers are actually employed at that place.
We have already stated the suspension of the law allowing the transit of refined sugars and coffee into France, but this measure, which if intended to be permanent, would seriously affect our trade, has been adopted by the French Government merely as a preliminary to the final arrangement of the Commercial Treaty, in order that the general question of transit shall be fully and fairly discussed and determined between both countries.
The French Government has discovered that the absolute prohibition of British commodities has no other effect than to defraud their own revenue, without attaining the end proposed. The money goes to the smuggler, and no part whatever to the Customs, as would be the case were there a fair, and reasonable tariff established. There is this disadvantage attending the sudden and impolitic prohibitions now in force that France must pay in ready money for the quantity of our produce she takes clandestinely, whereas, if there were a treaty or tariff established, a great quantity of goods would go to France on a long credit and by this means she would have the use of a capital to the amount of several millions, which at present (or at least to the extent of their consumption of our commodities) is transferred to this country, thus rapid and forcibly withdrawing that which France much wants—some capital on which by credit to call forth a large one. It is obviously to the interest of France then to have a tariff.—Politicians, on the other hand, will weigh the danger of throwing several millions of property into the hands of France, which in case of a rupture, or perhaps other events, which it is needless to particularise, might not be very easily recovered. Whatever facilities may be established by regulation, it will always remain with the merchant and manufacturer to exercise his own discretion, and to mingle caution with enterprise.

Alexandria Advertiser.
TUESDAY, NOVEMBER 2.
Mr. Jefferson's affectionate friend THOMAS PAINE arrived at Baltimore on Saturday in the ship London Packet , from Havre de Grace. We learn he intends paying his respects to Mr. Jefferson in a few days.
Extract from a Protest made by James Batchelder, late Master, Thomas Howard, Mate, and James Chipholm, Seaman, on board the Schooner CORNELIA, belonging to Alexandria, bound home.
On the 29th of August last, the Schooner Cornelia , with a cargo on board, left Montego Bay, in the island of Jamaica, bound to Alexandria, on the night of the 1st September, about 30 leagues from land, on the south side of Cuba, near the Isle of Pines, a sudden flaw of wind struck the vessel and upset her, at which time the master and crew were all upon deck. The boat broke her grips, in which the master, crew and the supercargo, Mr. Talbot, who escaped from the cabin by accident, were saved; the cargo being composed of rum the vessel did not sink, and they remained by the wreck until 8 o'clock next morning, endeavouring to save a passenger, Mr. Henry, a native of Carolina, who had not time to escape from the cabin, and to get a supply of water and provisions. In both these objects they were disappointed, as they had neither axe or knife, and obtaining a spar for a mast for the boat, and a piece of the square-sail, which they tore with their hands for a sail, without water, provisions or clothes, except what they had on when the vessel upset, they took their departure and stood for the south side of Cuba, which they made on the second day, and on the third landed near the Isle of Pines, about seventy leagues from Havana. After procuring a passport from the chief officer of the district, at the first village they entered, they proceeded on their journey to Havannah, experiencing incredible hardships from being obliged to travel without shoes and hats, through a country full of underwood, and where the rays of the sun were almost insupportable; they arrived at the gates of the city on the 21st September, and having been informed on the road that there were no American vessels in port and, that there was no American Consul or agent residing there, they requested from the officer of the guards, a guide to conduct them to the house of the Governor, to whom their passport was directed, expecting from protection and assistance to return home; they had two interviews with him, and were then sent under the guard of four armed soldiers to the Gen. of marines, who ordered them on board a guard ship; on the evening of the next day they were examined by a marine officer, when the supercargo was liberated; they remained on board until the 18th September, when they were disembarked and marched to the Gen. of marines, where they underwent a second examination by the marine department; they were then re-embarked on board the guard ship, where they were detained until the 23rd Sept. Immediately after the supercargo was liberated, the most ample colonial bail had been offered for their persons, notwithstanding which, contrary to every principle of humanity, they were confined eleven days, suffering all the hardships of prisoners of war, in a loathsome vessel, obliged to sleep exposed to the weather, nearly naked, destitute of every convenience, with hardly a sufficient supply of provisions for the support of existence, and threatened with punishment unless they would work. Mr. V. Gray acting as provisional agent of the United States at Havannah, used every exertion in their favor.
INTERESTING.
To a respectable gentleman of this city we are indebted for the subsequent extract from a letter received yesterday by the Determined Rover , dated Cape Francois, Sept. 28, 1802. N. Y. Gaz. "The government has imposed a tax or contribution on the inhabitants of the island, as follows: on every resident in the country, 6 dollars per head; on men
of the poorest class, without discrimination of color, 8 dollars; American merchants from 750 to 900 dollars; French merchants, 450 to 600; one half to be paid down and the residue in 30 days—in case of default, 5 per cent for one month is to be exacted, and then an arrest and sale of property without delay.
"Independent of those taxes, they have caused every American resident in the Cape to enrol themselves in the national Guard, and will no doubt have to go in actual service, on a call of necessity—and, that this will be the case, appears inevitable, as the Brigands are at their gates, in sight of the town, nightly conflagrating the surrounding plains, and murdering the inhabitants."
"Tranquility in this Island appears more distant than at the commencement of the revolution—should it be restored, it must be at the expence of vast treasure, and thousands of lives."
"The severe and incorrigible plunderers have so much paralyzed the commerce of the country, that all sales and purchases have comparatively ceased, which has been the cause of my detention; for all demands have ceased—and many in trade are obliged to pay to government their little all, in consequence of the above arbitrary measure."
"I never was so heartily tired of any country; for prejudiced indeed must be the eye, that is blind to the villainy, and hard the heart that cannot condole with the distress that daily presents itself. The situation of this country is truly critical, and I cannot think of leaving any property behind me."
Extract of a letter from Capt. Francois, dated 5th October, received by the Schooner Determined Rover.
"All importations now pay a duty of 10 per cent. on a Tariff, to be regulated every 3 months by the Prefect. Of the prohibition that has taken place lately, you must have a knowledge: we therefore shall say nothing on that head."
"The impositions lately put on the merchants, are scarcely supportable; they were all taxed a few days since 700 dollars for the term, it is said, of six months; and at the expiration of that time to be as much more."
STATE OF AFFAIRS AT AUX CAYES.
Captain Young arrived at Newburyport, sailed from Aux Cayes the 19th ult. and informs, that that part of the island was in the utmost confusion. The Commandant had recently passed an article, which caused to be immediately executed, all negroes which were found, who could not give a good account of themselves; accordingly great numbers were hung and shot daily. No vessels of war had arrived there, as has been stated, previous to capt. Young's sailing.
'Tis shocking to human nature to reflect on the present state of affairs in the French part of this island—there are now computed to be 30,000 negroes in a state of revolt, who must be disposed of before tranquility and safety to the lives and property of the planters, can be restored—they have got a taste for freedom, and they will not easily be made to abandon the enterprize—Can they be transported to the mother country? they are not wanted there—Will they be sent to the Spanish Main, or to the United States? most surely they will not be received—What is the alternative! They must be executed on the spot! for they will not again peaceably subject their necks to the yoke of slavery.
Accounts from Jacquemel state, that a general massacre of the whites had taken place, after which a pillage of the town ensued.
Port-au-Prince. By what information we can glean, the disturbances have extended to this quarter of St. Domingo, for when capt. Pearson failed, the town was closely besieged by the blacks. We did not learn the exact state of affairs there when captain P. failed, Oct 1, as we could not see him. [Newburyport pap.]

LAND FOR SALE.
THAT well known Tract called WEST-POINT , situate in the lower end of King William County, and bounded by York, Mattapony and Pamunkey Rivers, containing nearly 3000 acres.
To be minute in delineating the many and great natural advantages attached to this land, would be superfluous, as strangers would view it before they purchase; & those who are acquainted with it, want no further information. It may not however be improper, say, that as to fertility of soil, here of navigation, and the advantage of oysters and wild fowl, it is not exceeded by any tract of land in Virginia. This land will be disposed of by Public Sale, at West Point, on Wednesday the first day of December next, in lots from three to four hundred acres, on the following terms, to wit: One third of the purchase money paid down, one third in eighteen months, and the balance in one year after the expiration of the said eighteen months; and the payments to be secured by bond and a deed of trust on the land, with interest from the day of sale.
A clear and indefeasible title will be made to the purchasers by the subscribers, who have authorized Mr. Patrick Henderson to attend the sale and make conveyances. WILLIAM FITZHUGH, Alexandria. CHARLES CARTER, Shirley. Oct. 18 (Nov. 2) eods.

The Executors of the late Gen. Geo. Wash- ington, offer for sale, the following TRACTS OF LAND, viz.
A tract in Loudoun county on Difficult Run, containing 300 acres. The soil well adapted for farming and a considerable proportion of it might easily be improved into meadow. There is a valuable mill seat on the premises. It lies on the great road from the City of Wash- ington, Alexandria and George Town to Leesburg and Winchester, nineteen miles from Alexandria, less from the City and George Town and not more than three from the Great Falls of Potomac.
One tract containing 2,481 acres lying in the counties of Loudoun and Fauquier, called Ashby's Bent. The soil is that which is said to be most favorable to Plaster of Paris, well watered by seve- ral never-failing streams issuing from the mountain—part of this land is cleared and tenanted for lives.
One tract lying part in each of the above counties, containing 885 acres. Chatten's run passes through this tract and gives several valuable mill-seats. The soil is similar to the above tract and equal- ly favorable to Plaster of Paris.
A tract on the South Fork of Bullskin, containing 1600 acres—One al- so, Head of Evans's Mill, containing 453 acres, and one on Wormley's line, contain- ing 183 acres. These several tracts are in Jefferson (late Berkeley county)—the soil very similar in quality, and particu- larly adapted to the culture of Tobacco, Hemp, Wheat and Indian Corn, situated twelve miles from Harper's Ferry.
One tract containing 571 acres in Frederick county, this land is in the vicinity of the last mentioned tracts and equally valuable.
One tract in Hampshire coun- ty containing 240 acres—this tract, tho' small is extremely valuable. It lies on Potomac river, about 12 miles above the town of Bath (or Warm Springs) and is in the shape of a horse-shoe, the river run- ning almost round it; two hundred acres of it are rich low grounds, with a great abundance of the largest Walnut and other trees, which with the produce of the soil, might (by means of the improved naviga- tion of the Potomac) be brought to a ship- ping port with more ease and at a smaller expense, than that which is transported on- ly 30 miles by land.
One third part of 1119 acres in Nansemond county near Suffolk, lying on the road from Suffolk to Norfolk and on Nansemond river—this land is consi- dered extremely valuable by those who are acquainted with it.
One tract in Charles county, Maryland, containing 600 acres—it is very level and lies near the river Potomac.
One tract in Montgomery county, Maryland, containing 519 acres —This land lies about 30 miles above the City of Washington, not far from Kettoc- tan and is good farming land.
One tract in Pennsylvania, containing 234 acres—This land affords an exceeding good stand on Braddock's road from Fort Cumberland to Pittsburg, and a large quantity of natural meadow for the scythe. It is distinguished by the appellation of the Great Meadows, where the first action with the French, in the year 1754, was fought.
One other tract on the Mo- hawk river, State of New-York, contain- ing 1000 acres.
In North West Territory. Three tracts lying on Little Miami, con- taining 3051 acres.
