FROM THE RICHMOND ENQUIRER.
TRIAL
OF COLONEL A. BURR,
MOTION FOR COMMITMENT.
EXAMINATION OF EVIDENCE.
MONDAY, October 5.
(Major Bruff's evidence continued.)
As the general approached St. Louis, as descending the Mississippi from fort Massac, he dispatched a light barge ahead with instructions for me to meet him six or eight miles below. I obeyed. We met, landed and ascended the banks. The general took me into the woods. As we walked on, the general observed, that he had been informed the territory was divided by parties (I mean Upper Louisiana) which he attributed to the Americans, and said he would crush party, or perish in the attempt. I observed, that there had been some party business about the time of the convention and these memorials to congress, but none since; except the aversion the French had to the expense, delay and uncertainty of our laws, and the introduction of lawyers He then asked me how I stood with the French inhabitants, for he had heard there was some misunderstanding or coolness between us occasioned by my observations about antedated concessions and fraudulent grants—I observed, that some uneasiness had been excited by a report I had made to the secretary of war, respecting private surveys which took in public property, but I believed they were then satisfied I had merely done my duty. He observed that he had witnessed that he had witnessed their many attempts in the lower country to defraud the public; (the Orleans or Mississippi territories) that he knew them and mankind generally, and if I would place my dependence upon him he would manage them for me.
[Mr Hay. He would manage them for you? A Yes. It alluded to the French. About this time some Frenchmen from St Louis had found us out, and were rushing through the bushes on us. He damned them for their intrusion; [Mr Hay. To their faces? A No. To me.] said he had something of importance to communicate hoped to have had an opportunity there; but that he would take the first opportunity after he had got settled. A day or two after his arrival at St Louis his orderly came to me. I attended. I was taken in to the parlour and he locked the door.
[Mr McRae. What time? A About the last of June, or 1st or 2d day of July, ly.
[Mr McRae. Can you name the day? A I cannot.
General Wilkinson. Can you come within five days? A No. I cannot. We commenced walking. The general appeared to be ruminating, and after two or three times he asked me what sort of a government would suit Louisiana. Without hesitation I replied, a representative republic would meet both the wishes and expectations of the people. He answered that he was surprised to hear me say so; for the French could not understand its principles or be brought to attend elections; that the American inhabitants were a turbulent set, the mere fugitives from justice, and did not deserve a free government; that a military government was the best for these people and no other was contemplated for them.
[Here Mr Hay, observing that major Bruff retired to a table on which several papers were laid, asked him when he had made the statement of the testimony which he was then giving. On being answered that it was recently done and since his arrival here; Mr Hay requested that he would not again look at it. Major Bruff said that his statement was drawn from a number of letters which he had written to his friends about the time, of transactions alluded to; and from an intended publication against the general.]
That the politics of the U S had undergone a great change; that the honest and wise had united to save the federal constitution, and prevent a division of property which the democrats aimed at, that the democratic party in congress had split and dwindled; and that John Randolph, Nicholson and Leib, had lost their influence in congress and with the executive. I observed that he attributed principles and motives to the republicans which they abhorred.
[Mr Hay. To which party did you belong? A To the democratic. Mr McRae. Were you not then a democrat and
did not gen Wilkinson know you to be long to that party? A Yes.]
[Major Bruff's evidence to be continued.]
CONGRESS.
HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES.
Wednesday, November 18.
On motion of Mr. Quincy, a committee was appointed to wait on the president and request him to cause to be laid before the house a copy of his proclamation interdicting our harbors and waters to British armed vessels, &c. Messrs. Quincy & Burwell were appointed the said committee.
During the sitting of the house, Mr. Quincy reported from the said committee that they had performed the duty assigned them, and that the president had stated that he would cause a copy of the proclamation to be laid before the house to morrow.
A message was received from the senate, by Mr. Ouis, their secretary, informing the house that they had passed the bill making further appropriation for the support of the navy.
The house again went into committee, Mr. Basset in the chair, on the report of the committee of elections, on the contested election of Wm. Mac Creery. The discussion was continued till near 4 o'clock, without coming to any final decision, when the committee rose, reported progress, and obtained leave to sit again.
(A more particular statement of proceedings in our next.)
Thursday, November 19.
On calling for the order of the day to go into committee of the whole on the report of the committee of elections in the case of Wm. Mac Creery, Mr. Witherall moved that the committee of the whole be discharged from the further consideration of the report, which, after a short debate, was carried—Ayes 77.
Mr. Witherall then moved the recommendation of the report to the committee of elections, which was carried—Ayes 70.
Mr. Dawson, from the committee to whom was referred so much of the message of the president as relates to military and naval establishments, &c. reported in part the following resolutions:
Resolved, That a sum of money not exceeding _____ thousand dollars be appropriated for the purpose of building a National Foundary, in the city of Washington, for casting ordnance.
Resolved, That the secretary of war be authorized, under the direction of the P. U. S. to sell to individual states which may wish to purchase any arms owned by the U. S. and which may be parted with without injury to the public.
Referred to a committee of the whole on Wednesday next.
On motion of Mr. Lewis, the house again went into committee of the whole on erecting a bridge across the Potomac, Mr. Farkin in the chair.
Messrs. Nelson, Sloan, and Key advocated, and Mr. Lewis opposed the pending motion, to strike out the first section, which was negatived—Ayes 78—Noes 41.
When, after making considerable progress in filling up the several blanks, the committee rose and obtained leave to sit again.
The president communicated to the house his proclamation, requested yesterday.
BY THIS DAY'S MAIL.
BOSTON, Nov. 13.
From Russia.
Capt Cleveland who arrived yesterday, sailed from Cronstadt, on the 15th of September. There had been a complete change of Ministry; the former ministers, and many subordinate officers had resigned, in disgust, in consequence of the conclusion of the treaty with France, which was unpopular. The new administration, are of course rather in favor of France. Apprehensions were entertained of a hostile visit from the British, and defensive preparations were making.
From France.
We have been favoured with papers to the 5th of October—and have made a few translations from them. New measures are adopted for the purpose of restricting British Commerce, which will seriously effect the U. S. the only neutral nation. The war is to continue between Denmark and Great Britain—and the former it appears, are to receive French aid as soon as it can operate.
HAMBURGH, Sep. 24. It is confirmed, that the king of Sweden speaks in strong terms against the expedition; and is very much affected the reduction of Copenhagen.
AUGSBURG, Sept. 24. An embargo has been laid at Leghorn in order that all English property there may be seized. Similar measures are to be pursued in all other ports of the independent kingdom of Etruria.
PARIS, September 19. The French have been put in possession of the Seven Isles by the Russians.
The crown prince has returned to Copenhagen concluded with the English by the military commander at Copenhagen and declares that Denmark shall continue at war with England. It is presumed the king will agree with the prince. Conventions have been held with the French general commanding at Hamburg, (General Davoust) and a Danish agent has been sent to Paris.
September 24. We hear that the king of Sweden has made propositions of peace to Marshal Brune.
VERONA, September 6. On the 29th of August 3000 French troops entered Leghorn. The design was to destroy the communication of the British with Italy, which has long been facilitated under neutral colors.
It is ordered by the French emperor that the republic of Ragusa shall be united to the kingdom of Italy.
BALTIMORE, Nov. 20.
By the Pocahontas arrived at Norfolk from Liverpool, we have received our file of London and Liverpool papers, both to the second of Nov. The New York arrival brought papers one day later, of course those contain little news not already before our readers. The following we have not before seen.
LONDON, October 1.
Some time ago it was said that an attempt would be made to take the Danish ships in the port of Christiansand. A gentleman who was at Christiansand on the 10th has brought the information that Flecker or Fleckerroe, a small island at the mouth of Christiansand harbor was in our possession, and that two British sail of the line and a cutter were menacing Christiansand, where there were two Danish ships of the line, one of them an 88 gun ship.
The sequestration on English property was taken off at Elsinore on the 15th ult.
Sir Stephen Sharpe, who in the beginning of August was dispatched on a special mission to the Russian government, had arrived at Petersburg on the 29th of that month.
Three vessels from Holland reached Gravesend yesterday; they left it on the 18th, having previously to the rigid enforcement of the Dutch decree obtained their licences of departure. They have brought a vast number of letters, by which we learn that the whole responsibility of the full execution of the last decree is vested in an officer of the name of Gogle, who is appointed by Napoleon, and who is to act under the influence and discretion of instructions from Paris, and not to be responsible for his conduct to any other tribunal. This has been done to avoid references or application to king Louis on the matter. Every passenger who in future may arrive on the Dutch coast, before he can be permitted to land is to deposit in the hands of Mr. Gogle one thousand guilders, to be forfeited in a given time, should discovery be made that such passenger came last from a British port.
NORFOLK, November 17.
Yesterday captain Tompkins, of the fast sailing ship Pocahontas, of this port, came up to town, having left his ship in the bay bound up to Baltimore, from Liverpool. Capt. T. left Liverpool on the 4th of October, brought London papers to the 1st of that month, and has favored us with a complete file from the 10th September upwards. We have endeavored to present as much of the contents of these papers, as time and our limits would permit.
With respect to American affairs, we regret to say, that they are by no means in that state for immediate adjustment, the accounts by way of Boston have induced us to imagine. We have given in our view all the more prominent articles upon American affairs, which appeared in the London papers from the 19th to the 29th of September. They are contradictory and of course very unsatisfactory. The false rumor of Mr. Monroe's departure excited much speculation with some.

Upon comparing the papers with letters by this ship, and with private information, we think there is no reason to apprehend an unfavorable issue to the negotiation; of which the detention of the Revenge and Mr. Munro's stay, are evidences; because if a negotiation was not depending, and which did not promise a favorable result, our ministers would have desisted from all further attempt. Mr. Munro at one time fully expected to return to the Pochontas, but was delayed on public affairs. We have the most satisfactory information, that nothing is less desirable in England than a war with the United States.
We understand from good authority, that on the 14th of September, Mr. Munro delivered a memorial to the British government, demanding a final answer previous to his departure for the U. S. for which he was already prepared, and did expect to depart immediately.
At this juncture the intelligence of the surrender of Copenhagen, the disasters in S. America, and the measures of France against Portugal, with other important affairs on the continent of Europe, particularly with Russia, so pressed upon the British ministers, as to induce them to solicit Mr. Munro's indulgence. Mr. Munro accordingly agreed to remain, and we have good reason to believe that the ultimatum of the British government was delivered on the 14th of October, and moreover we understand that no act of hostility will be committed by Great Britain, until this ultimatum has been submitted to, and acted upon by this government. Of the contents of this ultimatum it would be ridiculous in us to attempt a conjecture, but it is easy to infer that all the demands of our government have not been acceded to, but we venture to assert that the British government have most unequivocally denied any pretension on its part to search a national ship of the United States.
The disastrous result in South America, details of which will be noticed hereafter, has produced much discontent and great loss. Nothing it appears could have been less expected.
The parliament was prorogued on the 24th of Sept. to meet again on the 19th of Nov.
Accounts to the 15 September had been received from Lisbon, the demands of Buonaparte for money were so great as to determine it is said a refusal, and it is added that the court, and many of the principal persons in that country were preparing to embark for Brazil.
Before advice of the treaty of Tilsit had been received, a most desperate action had been fought between the Russian and Turkish fleets, in which the latter lost 4 ships of the line taken, 3 blown up and 2 drove on shore. The Russians suffered severely but nothing in comparison. The force was 12 sail of the line each. The Russian fleet and prizes were expected in England to repair, stores having arrived for that purpose from Russia.
It will be observed that the Seven Islands, whose independence Russia had guaranteed have been given up to France, by virtue it is presumed of some secret article of the treaty of Tilsit, the consideration will be made known hereafter.
Apprehensions of a rupture between Britain and Russia were not so strong as they had been. Dispatches it is said of an important nature had just been received which indicated a more pacific disposition, and which the English prints ascribe to the decisive attack on Copenhagen.

MONDAY, NOVEMBER 23.
A letter from Halifax contains the following postscript: "You will excuse my brevity, when you learn that I am twice on duty as a militia man, and that, the past week, I have besides been one day on the fortifications."
Another letter from Halifax observes, Whatever may be the event of the present misunderstanding between England and America, it appears very plain that preparations are making by the British in every quarter for the worst. The organizing of the militia in these provinces, rearming the fortifications, &c. &c. are all in consequence of express orders from Great Britain; and large reinforcements of troops and shipping are expected hereafter."
Extract of a letter from a respectable house in England, to a gentleman in Baltimore.
LIVERPOOL, Sept 28.
Notwithstanding the various alarming circumstances respecting the result of our unfor-
tunate disagreement with America, some of which no doubt are transmitted by letters to you, I cannot from my own judgment, nor from that of those who ought to be well informed on the subject draw any conclusion less favorable to an amicable adjustment than heretofore; on the contrary if we consider the general sense of the country, the particular disposition of the present ministers, or, as far as it is known, the temper and progress of the discussions in London, I certainly should risk an opinion that at the present period a war ought to be less apprehended than at any time since the unfortunate affair of the Chesapeake. This opinion I believe is not unusual with that generally sent out to America and in giving it, I take it for granted that both countries are alike amicably disposed."
Extract of a letter from Leghorn, dated 15th Sept. 1807.
"The Vermont, Lyman, is liberated, captors condemned in all charges and damages, by the tribunal des Prises at Paris."
"The Catherine for New York, two vessels for Philadelphia, and one from New London, will sail in a few days. Since the entrance of the French troops into this place, trade has been rather dull more for want of system than from the severity of the military measures adopted in the search for English manufactures. Vessels sail and arrive as usual since the embargo has been taken off."
"Pimento is an article of small consumption; and as considerable quantities have lately been imported here, it has fallen as low as about 22 cents per lb. We should not be surprised to see it decline still further. Coffee is much in demand; and, as a general article, is one of the best that can be sent to our market."
DIVISION MIOLIS.
LEGHORN, Sept. 1, 1807.
Charles Du Moulin, general of brigade, one of the commanders of the legion of honor, commandant at Leghorn, to Mr. Grant, of Leghorn.
SIR, Adjutant commandant Millinet, inspector of the division, is charged by me to express how much I am concerned, that you have been for one moment the object of the rigorous measures which circumstances made necessary. They could never have been directed towards you, sir, but by mistake, the more to be regretted, as every one is pleased to pay you the tribute of esteem which you merit; and wishing individually to prove my sentiments in their respect to you, I think a more eligible interpreter of the same cannot be chosen, than my friend Mr. Millinet to convey them to you.
I have the honor to salute you with perfect consideration.
(Signed)
CHARLES DU MOULIN.
Extract of a letter from Nathaniel Pryor to gen. Clarke, Indian Agent, dated St. Louis, 16th October, 1807.
"The escort under my command, for the conveyance of the Mandane chief to his nation, has been compelled to return to St. Louis, without accomplishing that object. You will expect to be informed of the untoward circumstances which have contributed to this failure."
We arrived at the lower villages of the Ricaras at 9 o'clock on the morning of the 9th Sept. These people as soon as we came opposite their village, fired several guns, the shot of which came very near us. The sub-agent, Dorion, enquired in the Sioux language "what they meant"—they replied, "Put to shore, we will supply you with corn and oil." From their hospitalities to our party on a former occasion, I thought it prudent to show a confidence in those friendly professions, and ordered the boats to land at the village.
Several of the Sioux, the upper bands of which associated with the Ricaras in this affair, immediately came to the beach. From them we learned that the Ricaras and Mandanes still carried on war with each other, and that two of the former had been lately killed at the river Bul-latt.
In a very short time the bank was crowded with about 650 Indians, all of whom were armed with guns, and many of them with additional warlike weapons. A mandane woman, who had been a captive for many years, came on board, from whom I obtained information, which could probably have been derived from no other quarter.
She informed me that Daniel Lisa, a St. Louis trader, had passed up some time
before. That he had given the Ricaras, thro' compulsion , I conjecture, a number of guns, with a considerable quantity of powder and ball. This man you recollect obtained a license from Mr. Bates before your arrival, and before the plan which the government had adopted with respect to the Mandane was known at St. Louis. He was however still at St. Charles, and it is not forgotten that Mr. Bates having occasion to visit that village, informed him of the change of arrangement for the upper country, and desired him to remain until my boats should be equipped, that he might accompany the expedition.
This, we understood, he had consented to do—and his failure in those engagements has probably obliged him to divert the storm, which threatened his own boat , by directing the attention of the Ricaras to ours.
He told them, as we learn from this woman, that two boats might be very soon expected, that we had the Mandane chief on board, and that we were to remain for the purposes of trade at their villages. On this they pillaged him of about the half of his goods, and suffered him to pass on, determining in their councils at the same time to kill him on his return, and to lose no time in preparing to murder the Mandane and his escort, as soon as we should arrive. Being thus completely apprized of their sanguinary purposes, as respected the Mandane in particular, I directed him to secure himself in the cabin, by building in front a breastwork of trunks and boxes. My men were prepared for action, and the Indians about the picketed villages and breast works appeared to be putting themselves in readiness to commence it, they were observed chewing their bullets and driving away their women and children.
The chief to whom you desired me to present a medal, at length approached my boat, I had no doubt of his wish to serve us, and as he was known to possess influence with his nation, I felt desirous to conciliate him. He presented me a letter from Courtney, who had previously to the arrival of Lisa, been cruelly treated by these barbarians, and informed us that he alone had been friendly to that unfortunate trader, who owed his safety and ultimate release to his friendly offices.
This chief discovered much uneasiness while conversing with us, and after professing his regard for the Mandane and myself, rejoined his bloodthirsty companions, by whom his advice was in the sequel overruled. My interpreter was in the mean time employed in persuading the chiefs to meet in council, and at length succeeded in collecting all of them, except the chief of the upper village.
I should have made a further effort to procure the attendance of this refractory man, but found that if we consumed the day in fruitless conferences, we would, as soon as it was dark, fall a more easy sacrifice. I therefore determined to meet them, and proceed to the upper villages as expeditiously as possible. My interpreter here was an old Spaniard, whom you probably may not have forgotten. To employ a mediator in whom we had no confidence, in such circumstances as this, was sufficiently embarrassing, but I was obliged to make use of mine upon this occasion from the absolute impossibility of obtaining another.
I addressed them somewhat in this manner, "Your great American father has sent me with a few of his soldiers, to conduct the Mandane chief to his nation. In our long and laborious journey, we have met with many nations of red people, by all of whom we have been treated with hospitality and kindness—I have repeated to them the talk of their great father, whose councils they will in future pursue. We are not strangers to you. On a former occasion you extended to Lewis and Clarke the hand of friendship. We feasted in your villages and exchanged mutual benefits. As a proof of the confidence of your great father, in continuance of your pacific dispositions, and as an evidence of his personal friendship for your chief, he sends him a large medal, the devices of which may continually remind you of the amicable intercourse which ought always to subsist between his people and yours." I then suspended the medal to the neck of Grey Eyes, as is usual in such occasions.
To this address they made no reply, and in fact from a variety of suspicious circumstances, I scarcely calculated on a friendly answer.
We separated, it being understood that we would stop at the upper village, to pay our respects to the chief, who perhaps from motives of etiquette had refused to attend the council below.
Our boats proceeded on—Dorion and the interpreter Jessecaume went by and
The Indians followed in a body, using threats and menaces.
On our arrival, about four o'clock in the afternoon, all the Indians were collected on the beach; they appeared in violent rage. It was necessary as I conceived to see the chief. It was besides my duty to take on board Dorion and Jessecaume. My men were kept prepared for an attack, and it was doubtless as prudent to meet it on the beach, as to be followed into a river, filled with irregular sand bars. We put to shore and were directed by the Indians, to proceed up a narrow channel near the beach. Their views in this could not be mistaken and we declined compliance.

FROM THE REGISTER.
Mr. Gallatin in his report to Congress, states, the nett revenue of the United States for the year 1807, arising from duties on merchandise and tonnage, at fourteen millions of dollars. This immense amount he knew to be the result of a most extraordinary state of things throughout the whole of the commercial world, by which the neutrality of the U. States produces at least four millions of dollars beyond the nett amount, that could be brought into the treasury, from duties on merchandise and tonnage, in any one year after peace takes place. Mr. Gallatin, nevertheless, assumes, in his report, that in a state of war, the revenue from duties on merchandise and tonnage will yield annually, seven millions of dollars! being nearly 4-5ths of what the uninterrupted commerce of the U. States, in a state of general peace would or could produce.
As this information was given to the legislature of the Union for its government, in the assessment of taxes, to support a contemplated war, let it be presumed that Mr. Gallatin believed it to be, as nearly as round numbers could make it, correct—in that case what must the people of the United States think of his judgment, and capacity to discharge the important duties of his high office?
If he knew it to be fallacious, which it is, more probable he did, what must they think of his candor, and of the national safety, under such information and control?
Beside which horn of the dilemma you please Mr. Secretary, and be known to the people of the United States for what you really are.
