TH: JEFFERSON, By the President, JAMES MADISON, Secretary of State.
CONSTANTINOPLE, April 5. M. Jaubert, secretary and interpreter to his majesty the emperor of the French, well known here from the several missions in which he has been employed to the Sultan, had been sent by his sovereign to the king of Persia. We had heard nothing of him for upwards of a year; and no doubt was any longer entertained of his death: at length however we have been informed of his situation. His letter to M. Ruffin, the French charge d'affairs, will convey some idea of the sufferings of this interesting young man.
When the sublime porte was informed of his mission to Persia, they gave him a firman to protect his passage. He arrived at the court of the Persian Shah, who had dispatched a considerable escort to meet him.
Letter from M. Jaubert to M. Ruffin.
"From the camp of the Vizir Jusef, 60 leagues south west of Ertz Roum, March 14, 1806."
"SIR, "Divine Providence, that watches over the destinies of France, has permitted me to survive the event which I have the honor to relate, and for the publication of which I am rather anxious. At the same time I request you will transmit it to his majesty's government."
"I left Ertz Roum on the night of July 1, and continued my journey to the north east of that place, without meeting with any danger, but from two coups of Kurdish cavalry, from whom I escaped by the swiftness of my horses and the obscurity of the night. The Russians being in the neighbourhood, have occasioned these hordes to over-run the whole country south of the Araxus. I traversed this river on the 4th, and on the following day I arrived at the principal source of the Euphrates, about 54 leagues from Ertz Roum."
"On the evening of the 5th I was obliged to stop at Arzah, an Armenian village, 2 leagues from Bajazed, a city where Mahmoud Pacha resides. This governor, hearing of me at the village, expressed his wish to see me, and sent some horsemen to conduct me to his residence. Mahmoud Pacha is about 32 years of age, & is famous in this country for his tyranny, his vexatious spirit, and his riches. He received me with great coolness in his first interview, and having separated me from my people, questioned them concerning me; and while he affected a great deal of politeness on my account, he actually, as I was afterwards informed, put my guide to the torture, from whom having extorted some equivocal acknowledgments he afterwards had the man secretly assassinated. At the same time he formed the base project of robbing me, as much to satisfy his avarice, as to make himself agreeable to the Russians."
"You may go," said he to me, "to Erwan, which is but five leagues from hence, but fail not upon your return to pass through my province."
"I shall entrust you with some business at Constantinople, and with Jusef Pacha: you shall be escorted by my most faithful servants. When they arrive upon the frontier, they will deliver to you a passport, your guide will rejoin you this evening."
"I suspected his treachery, but it was not in my power to avoid it. I left Bajazed with a considerable escort, and under the protection of a vizier of the Sublime Port: I had a right, therefore, to consider myself in full security; but you will perceive how my confidence was rewarded."
"There is a stream at the foot of Mount Ararat, that runs into the Caspian sea: this stream is a boundary between the territory of the Sublime Port and that of Persia. I passed it and finding myself upon the Persian territory, my guides invited me to light from my horse; but, while I was thanking Heaven for having reached the Persian territory, at such a distance from my own country, I was surrounded, disarmed, and thrown with my face to the ground. At this moment, Heaven is my witness, no unworthy thought once entered my mind:—my last wishes were for the prosperity of my sovereign's arms. I did not forget that I carried the Imperial Eagle, around which are engraved these words—Honour our Country; the first my only guide, and the latter the object of all my affections."
"Thus surprised and arrested upon the Persian territory, I was dragged away by those persons whose duty it was to defend me from my enemies. In this situation I was left till the evening-night coming on, I was conducted over frightful precipices, quite out of the beaten road; and after a march of three hours, I arrived at a lonely house at some distance from Bajazed, where the Pacha in disguise waited my arrival. I complained bitterly of this want of good faith, and my firmness on this occasion saved my life, as well as the lives of those who accompanied me. This traitor, fearing the consequences of his attempt, said with some embarrassment, that he should write to Constantinople. He then caused me to be stripped naked, and I was dragged to the castle, where there is a subterraneous dungeon, an invention worthy of such a wretch."
"About midnight I was obliged to descend into this cavern by a rope, the Pacha giving orders to the commandant of the castle to keep me upon a small quantity of bread and water; to keep my confinement a profound secret, and not to allow me to have any light, for fear people should suspect the fact of some person being imprisoned there."
"I languished in this situation, and in the mean while the plague raged in the city:—The heat of the weather was intolerable: I was without clothes, and without hopes of life; still I was in pretty good health, as were also the three persons who belonged to me. About the 1st of Vendemaire, year 14, the Pacha was affected with the plague, and in one of the intervals of his malady he gave orders to have me assassinated; this the commandant of the castle refused to execute; and this was not the only service done me by this venerable Musselman during the eight months I was in confinement. To him I owe my life and liberty."
"The Pacha died—the city was then divided into parties respecting the
choice of a successor. Achmet Bey, his son, at length carried the cause. To me he seemed more dangerous than his father:—One of my horses happened to be recognized, and he ordered it to be killed. He also removed my friend the commandant of the castle, and seemed inclined to deprive me of the wretched existence which his father had spared, just at the time when he was seized by the plague and like his father carried off. Ibrahim Bey still survived, and seemed more favorably inclined than his predecessors; still he suffered me to remain a captive—he did nothing more than order my place of confinement to be shifted, after the expiration of 34 days. During this interval I found an opportunity of writing a few lines, and sending them into Persia, I have since received two answers, copies of which I have enclosed and sent to my government."
"The vizir Jusef Bey having been informed of my history, gave orders for me to attend him. A Persian officer arrived at the same time from Taurus, to claim me in the name of his sovereign. The bey caused me to be conducted here, and I cannot sufficiently praise the reception I met with. It is still my intention to deliver the letter (merely a friendly one) of which I am the bearer, to the king of Persia. The Sublime Porte will feel, I presume, that it cannot consistently deny me a passage. It is the interest of the Porte, and above all it is that of justice, not to abuse its power on my account, or to take an advantage of my weakness. I speak in the name of a sovereign whose name is revered through the universe. If the Sublime Porte wishes to preserve his friendship, let it give him this proof of its own amity. I request you will send a copy of this to the minister for foreign affairs, to whom I have not written, having almost forgot my native language; excuse therefore the style of this letter. Tell him that he may assure the emperor I will not return without fulfilling my mission. Eight months passed without my seeing the light of the sun, have not abated my zeal. I shall not see Paris till I return from Isaphan with the answer of the Persian Shah."
P. AMADEZ JAUbert.
RESIGNATION.
TOWN, the celebrated comedian, went from a rehearsal with the most uncomfortable sensation. The false cause was, having a dramatic part assigned to him which he imagined not precisely to his ability. Going through round the court, gnashing his teeth and biting his nails, in the bitterness of vexation, his perturbation was suspended by the following event:
"Green and pretty how-pots, ye pretty maids; ah, God Almighty bless your honor, will you buy a bow-pot for your window—madam of the hazel-tree with the nuts placed in order, some lilies of the valley—wild rosemary, and a few violets." Sung, or rather whistled a poor old woman who offered him the most rural bouquet, with a look fraught with so much wistfulness, that Edwin could not refrain asking her a few questions.
How old are you my poor woman? Eighty-five your honor, next Martlemas.
Where do you live? At Finchley, replied the woman. What is your name? Ann Lowton, an' please your honor. And did you walk from Finchley to day?—Interrogated Edwin.
Yes, indeed, sir, and I hope with God's blessing to sleep there this night. How much shall you make if you sell your bow-pots? Sevenpence halfpenny, sir. And when you have disposed of them, you will return contented to your cottage?
Yes, indeed I shall. Oh, Heaven! exclaimed Edwin, and shall we presume to murmur at the dispensations of Providence, when this calamitous creature, bending under the infirmities of age and the pressure of poverty, can be thankful to her Creator for advantages that comparatively is misery in the extreme. "Do you enjoy a good state of health?" I never was sick but twice in my life, your honor, once on the death of poor Billy—and another time when my husband lay ill of an ague, for nine weeks, almost without food.
Did he survive the illness? Ah! no, said the hoar worn doe, with her eyes full of tears—it was in the winter of the hard frost, and he could not bear up against the blight—he died—and the stroke would certainly have broke my heart with grief, if it had not pleased God that I should be otherwise.
And did no one contribute to your relief? said the repentant comedian.
Oh yes, a good lady in our neighbourhood sent us sixpence & some raspberry wine; but alas! it came too late—but it was the will of heaven it should be so, and it is our duty you know to bear the afflictions of God with patience. Will your honor please to buy a bow-pot?
No—keep your bow-pots for better customers—but here is a shilling, for you.
A shilling your honor, cried the other, but lack-a-day, I am so poor, I have no change.—I want no change, said Edwin, you have given me a lesson of Philosophy, that has done me more real service than all the sophistry of Shaftesbury—the black ethics of a Hume, or the levities of a Voltaire. The practice of christianity must be the foundation of happiness—and whoever disputes its pre-eminence over every other system of morality, is not only an enemy to himself, but a foe to the general interests of mankind.
FROM THE QUEBEC MERCURY.
MR. CARY, By inserting the following extracts, in your entertaining Miscellany, you will no doubt oblige all the admirers of OSSIAN'S POEMS, in this country. I am, &c. A FRIEND.
Edinburgh, 18th June, 1806. At a meeting of the Highland Society of Scotland, Sir JOHN SINCLAIR rose, and expressed the satisfaction he felt at being enabled to lay on the society's table the printed sheets of a large proportion of the Poems of Ossian, in the original Gaelic, with a latin translation; the whole of that would be completed in the space of two or three months. The publication of that work in Gaelic, he said, he was persuaded would not only remove the doubts which had been entertained, regarding the authenticity of these poems, but would also tend to excite a greater desire, than had lately prevailed, to be acquainted with Gaelic literature, with the music by which the Gaelic poetry was generally accompanied, and with the language which contained those ancient effusions of natural feeling and genius. He begged leave, therefore, to submit the following motion to the consideration of the society.
That this general meeting do instruct the directors to take under their consideration, the most effectual means of collecting, and of preserving, what yet remains of Gaelic literature, and music, and also take such steps as to them may seem most advisable for preparing and publishing a Gaelic Dictionary; that as such measures must necessarily be attended with a very considerable expense, a general subscription for defraying the same be set on foot among the members of the society, and other friends of literature, both at home and abroad; and that in order to promote those laudable purposes, the directors are hereby authorised to subscribe one hundred guineas, in the name of the society.
Sir JOHN MACGREGOR MURRAY, in seconding the motion, stated his conviction, that the object of it was of great national importance; that he was satisfied a store music, with some valuable gleanings of Gaelic literature, might still be collected.
"I am old enough," said Sir John "to have been delighted in successive seasons, before any translation was heard of, with many of the poems which have been the subject of so much discussion, and I am happy to find that the publication of them in the original Gaelic, is now in such forwardness. Without pretending to be a critic in Gaelic, I know so much of it as to enable me, if necessary, to shew that in very many instances, even the talents of Mr. Macpherson had proved unequal to do justice to the original. I believe no gentleman will be found who is enabled, from proper knowledge of the Gaelic language, fully to perceive and enjoy the incomparable beauties of these poems in the original and has compared them with Macpherson's translation, who is not convinced that he was not the author of that original. I am most anxious that the Gaelic language, which possesses so much energy and excellence, should be preserved, and I think the publication of a proper Dictionary, will contribute greatly to that object."
Montreal, 10th April, 1806.
It must be said that the federal hirelings have always worked well for their masters. They are industrious, and earn their bread, if not by the sweat of their brow, yet by the labour and fatigue of their mind, to find out new subjects for defamation and calumny. It was look back for many years, we shall find a constant succession of ridiculous tales and alarming suggestions, that something wonderful were, ere long, to be divulged. Plots, conspiracies, massacres, French Indians and American Taylors, have all been alternately conjured up, and exhibited on the political stage, to confound and excite the public mind. An Illuminati, for one while, stood ready to set the whole continent together by the ears; orations & pamphlets were issued to caution the citizens against its dreadful progress, and a sermon was actually published, with the horrid and terrific appellation of the "Devil let loose!" A Tob. plot was represented more fatal in its explosion than the powder plot of Guy Faux.

During Mr. Adams's reign, the papers were constantly promulgating the most terrible discoveries, to undermine the whole federal government, and to introduce an army of Frenchmen to cut our own and our children's throats. Thus were we kept in daily perplexity and anxiety about what was to happen to all the men of order—professors of religion—the rich men—the valiant men—the wise men of the east?—and even went so far as to declare that all the Sequoia would soon lose their locks, unless they rose in their own defence!
This kind of alarming policy has always been pursued by the federalists. But in no instance have their predictions proved true. They have absolutely worn out every tale which can excite any fearful apprehensions. They have exposed themselves so often, that they are ashamed to pledge themselves, otherwise than through the medium of editors, too insignificant to excite resentment, or too profligate to become responsible.
The torrent of defamation arises from this source—As soon as one story is worn out, another is put into circulation. This takes place with every character. President Jefferson, Mr. Madison, Mr. Gallatin, Judge Sullivan, &c. all become the objects of their infamous clamors. While the people enjoy the blessings of a wise administration, these noisy revilers are constantly sounding the tocsin, and attempting to render every man as infamous by derogation as they themselves are by conduct and practice . They are abusing the administration, & yet urge the propriety of keeping such a group of snarlers in the pay of government. They were in favor of the funding system, and while they are regularly fed with this delicious nutriment they are growling, snarling, and even biting the very paps that give them suck. They are the most untoward beings that ever sought relief, for though you give them their food in due season, yet they are quarrelling with their benefactors, and are not contented, though the government is now so prosperous in its resources, as to pay them both principal and interest.
We must however treat them like fractious children, who have been spoilt in their infancy by too great an indulgence, and if they will not reform by gentle reproof, a more strict discipline must be used to bring them to proper subordination .
Boston Chronicle.
If any thing were wanted to fill up the measures of federal iniquity, we think the treatment of Mr. Osborn, as given in this day's paper, amply sufficient for that purpose. Those who can coolly and deliberately do such things, do, in our opinion, voluntarily erase their names from the list of humanity, and publicly declare by their acts that they no longer deserve the name of men, but ought rather to be reckoned among brutes.

Thank God! the United States can boast of no such scenes of wealth and splendor as are delineated in the following picture of an entertainment given by the lady of a London banker. These are the peculiar attributes of the system pursued under the corrupt governments of Europe. There every political institution tends to destroy, as here it happily tends to maintain a state of tolerable equality of property. We are not among those who are ambitious of being enrolled among the advocates of an Agrarian system. On the contrary, we believe that absolute equality of wealth is no less visionary in prospect than it would be pernicious in reality. We rejoice, therefore, to contemplate in this country a full and uncontrolled play allowed to all the natural and acquired talents of every order in society, and a commensurate reward bestowed on those who possess and exert them. Distinctions naturally flow from various degrees of talents and assiduity. Some men will become more powerful and rich than others. But neither will this power and affluence become so unbounded as to place their possessors above the great community of which they form a part, or to depress that community to the lowest state of debasement. This constitutes the great difference between the European and American states of society. On the other side of the Atlantic, the splendor of wealth is every where surrounded by the gloom of poverty and wretchedness. It is not exaggeration to say, that the assembly of a rich banker's wife may involve the famine of thousands. While on this side of the water, unequal as wealth is, the floor to its possession remains open, the means of obtaining an honorable support are possessed by every one, and the man of affluence generally enjoys the fruits of his own industry. The key to this striking contrast exists in the theory of the two governments, in the difference between republicanism and monarchy. In a republic correctly constituted, all the national institutions either leave the fruits of personal industry untouched, or tend to diffuse them among the great body of the society; the interests of the few are made subservient to those of the many—while under a monarchy individual wealth and power are studiously accumulated, and as studiously preserved in the hands of a few, to whose enjoyments the whole society is made tributary.
MRS. THOMAS HOPE'S FIRST ASSEMBLY.
Was given on the evening of the king's birth day, at her house in Duchess st. Portland place. The party exceeded 1300 fashionables, including their royal highnesses the prince of Wales, dukes of Cumberland, Cambridge and Gloucester. Thirteen state apartments were thrown open on this occasion, namely—1st, the anti-room, fitted up a la Grecque ; 2d, the black velvet, or king Henry the VIIIth's room—3d, the blue or Etruscan room, the walls and ceiling of this apartment being composed of a blue ground, and furnished with a crimson satin—4th, the star-room, which is fitted up to resemble the starry prospect in the celestial regions—5th, the Ottoman room, or hencur; the ceiling of this room is of strict costume, as representing the dining over a Turkish tent—6th, the dining room, furnished a l'Egyptienne , the chairs, tables, sideboards and pedestals, all being composed of the most beautiful mahogany, inlaid with ebony; in this room are the finest mahogany antique candelabras in the known world; 7th, the drawing room, composed of bronze and gold furniture, magnificent mirrors of vast magnitude, candelabras, tripods, and two real gold chandeliers, or Grecian lamps, richly chased—8th, the statue gallery, illuminated by an immense number of silver lamps with patent burners—9th, the picture gallery illuminated in the same style—the 10th, 11th, 12th and 13th were the wing rooms, so called from their occupying the angles of the building—these were all in the Grecian style.
The company began to arrive at 11 o'clock—August one, what was called a Sandwich supper was set out in different rooms. The supper in fact consisted of every delicacy, viz—the finest viands and the rarest wines, which were served in profusion. On this occasion were displayed several very large gold cups, resembling vases. There were many other articles of gold plate displayed, particularly several gold candelsticks with branched lights. In this hall were stationed 12 servants in rich state liveries, and the same number of attendants out of livery lined the great stair case. About 12 o'clock the celebrated band of Milanese minstrels arrived from Mr. Agersten's house in Pall-Mall, where a grand entertainment was given by that gentleman to the princess of Wales—Many of the distinguished fashionables came from thence at a late hour. It was not until 5 o'clock in the morning that the party broke up.
In a recent debate in the British Parliament it is stated as a fact that "a ship from Africa to Carolina carried 115 slaves, and yet the voyage was profitable." A mind of correct principles will feel at a loss at which to be most shocked, the avarice or the inhumanity of this iniquitous traffic.
A London print of the 19th of May, advertises for sale the second edition of the pamphlet originally printed in this country, entitled, "An Examination of the British doctrine which subjects to capture a neutral trade not open in time of peace." The same print advertises an answer to it under the title of "Belligerent Rights asserted and vindicated against neutral encroachments."
A Panorama of the battle of Trafalgar is now exhibiting in London, the painting of which covers ten thousand square feet of canvas.
DIED.
Suddenly on the 6th of June, on board the U. S. bomb ketch Vengeance , Mr. Simon Smith , midshipman. Mr. Smith was one of the American prisoners in Tripoli, and was on his return to Rhode Island, of which state he was a native.

It was reported at Gibraltar that the British had, by consent of the king of Naples, taken possession of Syracuse, in Sicily.
HOUSE OF COMMONS.
In a committee of supply, lord H. Petty moved a resolution, granting to his majesty a sum of 300,000l. to enable his majesty to reward the officers, seamen, and marines, under the command of the late lord Nelson, for their valor and glorious conduct in the battle of Trafalgar. The report was ordered to be received on Wednesday.
In late New-Orleans papers we observe, that no less than 93 flats or arks, from different parts up the Mississippi and Ohio, had arrived there with the produce of our western country, in one week.

Mr. Ludlow, being sworn, deposed, that "John Fellows, after he was sworn as a jurymen, declared that he should with that col. Smith, were it not for his insolent memorial to Congress, might be acquitted; but as to Mr. Ogden, it was NO MATTER HOW MUCH HE SUFFERED"—or words to this amount.
After a few remarks from the counsel and the bench, the triers retired, and in a few minutes returned the verdict—that John Fellows was not an impartial jurymen in this cause.
James M'Corneil, David A. Cumming, James Palmer, junr. John Batchelder, Ezra Weeks, John P. Grotham, John M'Kee, William Dunlaph and Andrew S. Norwood were called and sworn.
Mr. Colden, for the defendant, moved for attachments against Mr. Madison, Mr. Thornton, Mr. Wagener and Mr. Robert Smith absent witnesses. The court decided against the motion.
The attorney general then commenced the examination of witnesses, on the part of the prosecution.
FROM THE AMERICAN CITIZEN.
United States vs. Colonel S. Smith.
(CONTINUED.)
FRIDAY MORNING, July 22.
The court met pursuant to adjournment: Present—Judge Talmadge. JURORS SWORN.
John Sullivan, John A. Forte, John Rathbone, jun. James Masterton, Lewis C. Ammerley, Henry Panton, Schuyler Livingston, George Forman, Courtlandt Babcock, August Wynkoop, John P. Koff, Gouldt Hoyt.
The district attorney opened the case. He stated that the defendant was arraigned under an act of Congress passed in 1794, entitled "An act in addition to the act for the punishment of certain crimes against the U. S." The fifth section of this act which he read to the jury, ordains, "that if any person shall, within the territory or jurisdiction of the U. S. begin or set on foot, or provide or prepare the means for any military expedition or enterprise to be carried on from thence against the territory or dominions of any foreign prince or state with whom the U. S. are at peace, every such person so or-
fending shall, upon conviction, be adjudged guilty of a high misdemeanor, and shall suffer fine and imprisonment at the discretion of the court in which the conviction shall be had, so as that such fine shall not exceed three thousand dollars, nor the term of imprisonment be more than three years." The duration of the act was originally limited to two years, but it has since been made perpetual.
Having traced the origin and progress, and explained the object of the expedition, namely, the invasion of Carraccas, the territory of a nation with whom we are at peace, the district attorney adverted on the enormity of the offence with which the defendant stood charged, and the difficulties in which such enterprises were calculated to involve the U. S. Speaking of Miranda as connected with the accusation against the defendant, he represented him as a native of Carraccas, the territory of Spain, in whose military service he had been.—Miranda, he said, had also distinguished himself in the revolutionary armies of France, whence, however, in disgrace, he had passed over to England, where, under the auspices of that government, he had planned the hostile expedition, and in December 1804, arrived in the U. S. to carry it into effect. The jury would perceive that an expedition of the nature of the one in question, was extremely audacious and altogether incompatible with the peace and sovereignty of the U. S. Government alone can determine on war and peace, and when the nation is at peace with a foreign power, no individual citizen could pretend to the right of waging war against it. With regard to the defendant, he would lay before the jury testimony to prove, first, that he had begun and set on foot within the territory of the U. S. a military expedition or enterprise; second, that he had provided and prepared the means for the military expedition, and, lastly, that the military enterprise was to be carried on from thence against the territory of Spain, with whom the U. S. were at peace.
Samuel G. Ogden, sworn.
Do you know col. Smith? Yes. How long have you known him? I have known him as a gentleman 3 or 4 years. Have you ever seen him and Miranda together? Not lately; I saw them in the month of January last. Did Smith introduce Miranda to you? He did. Is Miranda a citizen? I believe he is. What was the object of your meeting with Miranda?
Col. Smith introduced Miranda to me as a man of science. Did you ever hear col. Smith say any thing about the Leander expedition, and what did he say?
If the question has any relation to the charge against col. Smith in the indictment, I will not answer it; if it be a general one having no relation to it, I will.
[The defendant's counsel advised the witness not to answer the question, affirming that as he was under an indictment charging him with a like offence, his answers might criminate himself.] Have you seen them on the Battery, and at several other places.
Did Miranda apply to you to charter the Leander? It is not a proper question.
Did Miranda charter a vessel of you? I will not answer the question.
The judge decided that the two questions to which Mr. Ogden objected were proper, but the counsel for the prosecution waved them, and dispensed with a further examination of the witness for the present.
Dr. Romaine, sworn.
Do you know Miranda? Pretty well. Have you known him for some years? Yes, twenty.
What countryman is he? By general repute he was born in Carraccas.
Was he ever in the military service of Spain? I have understood from himself and others that he was.
David Gelston, Collector of the port of New York, sworn.
When did the Leander sail from New York? The 23d of January, from the Narrows the 2d of Feb. 1806.
Did she clear out for Jamaica? Yes.
Have you the clearance with you? Yes: produce it: The witness also produced the manifest of her cargo, by which it appeared that various items of merchandise were entered in it, as a cover.
When did the Indostan, and her accompanying vessels, clear out from New York? The 23d of December, 1805.
Was Thomas Lewis Captain of the Leander? Yes.
John Mc Lean, commissioner of military stores, sworn.
Did you in January last sell Capt. Lewis of the Leander some military articles, and what?
The defendant's counsel objected to the question.
What were the articles you sold Capt. Lewis in January last?
Some matches, powder horns, and other small matters, such as Capt. Lewis had bought before for Mr. Ogden.
Have you a minute of the articles? Yes: produces it.
State what the articles were? Why it is but a very trifle; there is
neither pistol, musket, nor—See what: hands the paper, which was read and contained a minute of various small military articles.
Who paid you for these articles? I held capt. Lewis's paper for them.
Did you not see at Moore's when in company with capt. Lewis and Mr. Ogden, a quantity of arms for them? Yes, six or seven boxes.
Did you not see some also at Mr. Allen's?
Yes, a great quantity of muskets. Were they packed in boxes for them? Yes, all fixed.
Did capt. Lewis apply to you for muskets, &c. for the Leander?
He did, and said he would replace what I would let him have from the arsenal; he did not get any.
You was on board the Leander and saw their two pieces of cannon?
Yes, which I wanted to buy, but which were sold to some other persons, and were on board the Leander.
You saw cannon besides those mounted for the ship?
Yes. [The witness purchased for merchants, military articles for India and European voyages, but there were more matches bought for the Leander than were necessary for several voyages.]
General Stevens, sworn.
Did you sell any guns to capt. Lewis in January last?
Yes, 2 nine's.
Did they go on board the Leander? I did not ask where they were going. They were delivered?
Yes.
Cross Examined.
Are not warlike implements, exported by merchants?
Yes they are articles of exportation, like all other produce. I suppose 50,000 stand of arms have been exported from New England.
Richard Belden, sworn.
Did you not sell captain Lewis in January last some swords?
Yes, 150, and 80 pair of pistols. They were delivered on the 23d of January.
Were you paid for them paid for them?
Yes, by Mr. Ogden's note. Were the swords for cavalry?
Yes, all of them. Did you understand that they were to go on board the Leander?
Mr. Ogden wanted them packed to go on board a ship, but did not mention what ship. The articles purchased amounted to 1500 dollars.
Jonathan Ogden, sworn.
Did you sell captain Lewis any military stores in January last?
Yes; 50 quarter casks of gun powder, worth 26 pounds a cask.
Cross Examined.
Is not gun powder an article of merchandise?
It is.
Benjamin Haight, sworn.
Did you sell any arms to major Armstrong in January last?
I sold him 250 sets of belts and pouches for rifle-men.
Were you paid for them? I look to Mr. Ogden for pay.
Were there any other articles? Some saddles.
They were to be ready by a particular time?
Yes.
When were they done? By the 20th of January.
What trade were they for? I cannot tell—I have before made such things for Mr. Ogden.
Bernard Hart, sworn.
Did you sell capt. Lewis any warlike implements in January last?
I sold him 15 guns in the 8th of that month.
Who paid for them? Mr. Ogden.
Were they marine or land guns? I do not recollect.
Abraham Van Nest, sworn.
Mr. Van Nest said he made in January last 250 belts and as many cartridge boxes for major Armstrong.
I have been paid by Mr. Ogden, or I look to him for pay.
Jonathan Fay, sworn.
Did captain Lewis apply to you last January to purchase arms?
Yes, but not being at home he requested Mrs. Fay to tell me to make out a statement of all I had of all sorts, and he would call again.
Did you see him yourself? Yes, and he ordered them to be got ready.
What were they? Muskets, pistols and cutlasses—about 25 muskets, 25 pistols, and 23 cutlasses.
Are these all? Yes, he would have taken more if I could have got them ready—The witness said they were delivered on the dock near the Leander in open day, but he could not say that they were put on board.
Who paid for them? Mr. Ogden.
Cross Examined.
Was the expedition of the Leander of public notoriety when you sold the articles?
It was talked of in several places where I was.
At what time in January was it that the expedition was matter of public notoriety?
About ten days before the Leander failed.
By the counsel for the prosecution.
What do you mean was the matter of public notoriety, that the vessel was going to sail on some voyage or that she was going to Carraccas?
That the Leander was going to sail and was taking arms on board, but where she was going to I did

not know, nor had I heard; it was a secret.
Wm. Lockhart swam. You are a cutler. Yes. Did you last winter sell Capt. Lewis a parcel of swords? I did. When? The 15th of January; 129 swords and some other military articles. Who was to pay for them? Mr. Ogden.

Why what pay I did get, I got from Mr. Ogden. Adjourned to Saturday at ten. Saturday the court met: present Judge Tallmadge. As a child of Judge Tallmadge had died this morning the Court was but opened to adjourn to Monday at nine o'clock A. M.
Extract of a letter, dated Natchitoches, June 5, 1806.
"Mr. Freeman and his party arrived here a few days since from exploring the Red River; he makes Natchitoches distant from the mouth of the river only 181 miles, in 31 deg. 46 m. N. lat. 97 deg. 30 m. W. of the meridian of Greenwich; he started again this day, and intends to go as far as the dividing ridge called Catusahavas, between Louisiana and the Pacific; the expectations of information entertained from his expedition are very high, as the distance is said not to be very great from where the Prairie Indians are settled, a rich and very productive country."
"The report you mention of an engagement between our troops and the Spaniards I suppose arose from the desire of some one to anticipate the intelligence of an event which from the conduct of the Spaniards, for a time appeared inevitable; however, they found we were not to be trifled with, and after making a great bluster retired when we were prepared to handle them; they have appeared since more cautious, and when it is considered that the road from hence to Santa Fe, is not through marches and over steep mountains, but through a continued prairie to the very foot of the mountains of Santa Fe, and that the city itself is only 600 miles from this place, I apprehend they will be very cautious how they lead us after them."
"We are in daily expectation of three companies of troops from St. Louis, who were ordered hither in consequence of the hostile conduct of the Spaniards—with that force we shall be able to repel every inroad, and to give a good account of any aggression."
"The climate here is incomparably fine, and the lands on the Red river of the richest kind."
"P. S. Since writing the foregoing we have received information from a source that cannot be doubted, that Gaudiana, a Spanish lieutenant, with fifty men, had been dispatched from Natchitoches to intercept our exploring party, and with hostile instructions; that they have, by their commissaries, already endeavored to stir up the Indians of the Censeny villages, about 100 miles above Natchitoches, but measures have been taken on our part to frustrate them, and to counter act them altogether; our party consists of 45 picked men, principally from the garrison here, who will be more than a match for an equal number of Spaniards at least; our party have strict orders to avoid hostility, and not to give the least color of excuse for aggression; but if attacked, to do their duty."
New York, July 25. Capt. Cook, arrived at Newburyport on Saturday from Trinidad, which place he left 19th June, contradicts the report that Col. Armstrong had been enlisting men at that place for Miranda; he informs that not a man had been enlisted, and that the people entertained the most contemptible idea of his expedition. Miranda had not arrived there when he left.
Captain C. further observes, that he spoke a Charleston brig the 26th June, twelve days from Cayenne, the captain of which informed, that a considerable French force of ships of the line and frigates arrived at Cayenne, and sailed from thence (destination unknown) three days before the brig sailed.
Philadelphia, July 26. BRITISH & FRENCH WEST INDIA FLEETS.
Captain Gamble of the schooner Favorite, arrived at the Lazaretto, in 15 days from St. Pierre, Martinique, informs, that four days before he sailed, a French squadron left Martinique, consisting of six ships of the line and one frigate, viz. Le Fouroyant, admiral Villeneuve, captain Henry, 84 guns; Le Veteran, captain Jerome Bonaparte, 80; Le Pole, captain Perrot de la Croix, 74; Le Citard, captain Faure, 74; Le Patricie, 74; Le Jupiter, captain L'Alguier, 74; La _____, captain L'Alguier, frigate, 40.
By the schooner Margaret Tingey, captain Newcomb, arrived at the Lazaretto yesterday, in 17 days from Martinique, via St. Thomas, we are informed, that the English fleet had returned to Trinidad, without any action with the French having taken place. In the English fleet, captain N. was boarded by the British frigate Fortune, who said
he had cut off 24 sail of droppers from Samana, and destroyed them at sea, as also two other vessels, one of them loaded with coffee, and that the frigate with six sail of the line were convoy to a fleet of 172 merchantmen, from the W. Indies, bound for Europe, &c. then in sight, and through which captain N. had passed.
Norfolk, July 24.
ENGLISH AND FRENCH FLEETS. To captain Webb, arrived here yesterday in 14 days from Antigua, we are indebted for the following very interesting particulars:
Admiral Guillemet, and Jerome Bonaparte, with six sail of the line, two frigates, and one corvette, sailed from Martinique on the 1st of July, and on the evening of the 3d, landed at Montserrat, where they informed the inhabitants that they did not come to distress them, or burn their town, but that what they wanted was, all the vessels belonging to the British lying in the roads, which only consisted of three sail, and which they took; and then proceeded down to Nevis and St. Christopher's, to destroy the English merchantmen homeward bound consisting of upwards of 100 sail, waiting for a stronger convoy. That the fleet hearing by a small vessel of the French having stopped at Montserrat, immediately made sail through the Sombrero passage on the 4th July, and that in seven hours after, the French were off St. Kitts in pursuit of them—On the 5th in the morning admiral Cochrane with four sail of the line and two large frigates was off the harbor of Antigua, in pursuit of the enemy, and there got intimation of the French fleet being at St. Kitts the day before, he immediately bore up and put after them. They had no other accounts respecting either of the fleets when capt. Webb left Antigua; but it was generally supposed and feared that the French would overtake the merchantmen, and sink, burn and destroy most of them before admiral Cochrane could come up to their assistance.
Captain Webb spoke on the 16th inst. in lat. 28, long. 69, W. the schooner Recovery, capt. Prowse, of Bridgetown, from St. Thomas's bound to New-York, six days out, who informed him, that on the 6th, the French fleet passed the harbor of St. Thomas, and in one hour after admiral Cochrane's squadron hove in sight steering directly after them: in a short time they got sight of each other, upon which the French ships hove too for the English to come up. It blowing fresh capt. Webb could learn no more from capt. Prowse.
Capt. Webb also says, that admiral Cochrane remarked to the officers at Antigua that carried the dispatches from lord Lavington, that if he fell in with the French fleet he had no doubt but he would soon give a good account of them.
From the above accounts, on which, from the well known veracity of capt. Webb, implicit confidence can be placed; there can be no doubt but that an engagement between the fleets has taken place, particulars of which may hourly be expected, and that through the indefatigable pursuit of Cochrane, the homeward bound English merchantmen have been saved from total destruction.
From an Antigua paper received by the Catherine Shepherd. MIRANDA AGAIN!!!
SAINT JOHN'S, July 1. General Miranda has again sailed for the Spanish Main, after having increased his strength at Barbadoes, and received considerable assistance from the British government. We are happy to learn that he is not without hopes of co-operation from some of the inhabitants of the eastern part of Caraccas, where his partisans, under the command of one Ferdinand Mendes Pinto, were some time since collecting in great numbers, in order to support him immediately upon his appearing off the coast.
Nassau, July 1.
BABANA ISLANDS. By his excellency Charles Cameron, esq. captain general and governor in chief in and over the said islands, and of the garrisons there, or that may be therein, chancellor, vice-admiral and ordinary of the same:
A PROCLAMATION.
Whereas the time limited for the admission of lumber and provisions into the different ports of this colony from the United States of America in foreign vessels, will expire on the 31st day of July next: And whereas it appears necessary and expedient, that the admission of lumber, and of certain kinds of provisions from the said U. States in foreign vessels should be further allowed and continued: I have therefore thought fit, by and with the advice and consent of his majesty's honorable council of these islands, to issue this my proclamation, permitting and allowing the importation of corn, all sorts of grain, pulse, flour, bread, rice, salted provisions (except salt beef, pork and butter) cattle, live stock of all kinds, and all sorts of lumber, from the said United States into the ports of Nassau, Exuma, Turks Islands, St. George and Crooked Island, as well in neutral as British vessels, from and after the said 31st day of July next, until notice of 6 months shall be given, declaring that this my proclamation, and the permission hereby given, is to be considered as no longer in force; And I do hereby give notice, that if any other articles, except those particularly above enumerated and permitted to be so imported, are attempted to be introduced from the said U. S. measures will be taken for the forfeiture of the ship or vessel so importing the same; and of the
goods so imported in contravention of the laws of navigation.
Given under my hand and the seal of the said islands at Nassau, in the island of New Providence, this 27th day of June, in the year of our Lord 1806, and in the 46th year of his majesty's reign.
CHARLES CAMERON. By his excellency's command, JOHN MCCARTHY, Dep. Sec.
H. M. S. Sirius, April 28, 1806.
"On Thursday, April 17, we gained information from a vessel we boarded at sea, that a French national squadron consisting of 1 ship, 3 brigs, 1 bombard, and 5 heavy gun-vessels had sailed that morning, from Civita Vechia for Naples. We immediately made all sail in chase of them, and at 4 o'clock, had the pleasure of seeing them from our mast head, and cleared ship for action; at 6 o'clock, saw them very plain from our deck, under easy sail, and apparently determined to wait our attack; at half past 6, they hove to, and at 7 we commenced action on both sides within pistol shot; at 8 observed several of the enemy's vessels much damaged, and running in for the land, we still in close action with the ship and 3 brigs; at a quarter past 9, the ship ceased firing, and hailed us to say she had struck. I am sorry that we could not take possession of some other vessels, the night being so very dark, and our ship very much crippled, and close to the land. However we have given them something to remember us. The ship is la Berger, and now with us at Malta. They mounted in the whole 93 guns, and 661 men, which you will see by the list of them I send you. I can assure you we found enough to do with the whole of them, for the water was so smooth that all their guns told; and for a frigate like the Sirius of 36 guns, and only 260 men, to have 93 guns and 661 men against her, it was serious indeed. Capt. Prowse has lost his nephew, (Mr. Adair) a very fine young man; his brother was killed on board the Victory with lord Nelson; he was captain of the marines. I am sorry to say that we had 9 killed and 20 wounded; the enemy 50 killed and wounded."
BERLIN, MAY 7.
The king of Sweden has ordered all the bridges upon the frontiers to be destroyed, and neglects nothing that may not compel Prussia to carry on the war against him. His conduct may be like that of the queen of Naples in the year 5, when that kingdom began the war alone; but, though she knew that Naples would be exposed to the most imminent danger, she still hoped, by that means, to render the flame of war, universal, and of course, to be of essential service to England.
