LONDON, February 27.
A report was yesterday circulated, that the difference between Prussia and France, had risen to such a height, as to render hostilities almost inevitable. There is not, we believe, any foundation for this report, but there can be no doubt that the cabinets of Berlin and the Tuileries, must view each other with a degree of suspicion and distrust, which may very probably lead to open hostilities; though in the present state of Europe, they have both strong reasons to avoid it. Prussia cannot wish for a war with France, the result of which, may not only diminish her power, but endanger her very existence as an independent State: on the other hand, Bonaparte, with all his confidence in his own fortune, and in the bravery of his troops, with all his lust of conquest, must be aware of the difficulties he would have to encounter, in engaging in a war with Prussia, acting in concert with Russia and G. Britain: besides, Italy, though nominally subject to his power, is in a very unsettled state; and Austria, though humbled, is by no means subdued. It seems, from the last Moniteurs, that Bonaparte already begins to entertain some uneasiness with respect to the disposition and intention of the cabinet of Vienna. The French official paper makes a formal complaint against the Emperor of Germany, for employing Count Stadion as his minister; and if it be true, that Baron Thugut is again to be placed at the head of the councils of Austria, we may expect to find those complaints converted into menaces.
The Paris papers which arrived last night, to the 20th, and Dutch Journals to the 23d instant, afford little in addition to what we have before stated, respecting the situation of affairs on the continent. The French army on the Maine, was, it appears, receiving reinforcements not only by means of the troops returning from Moravia, but the division of General Laval, which formed part of the army of the North, and afterwards returned to Strasburg, had received orders to march to the banks of the Maine. This is an additional proof of the want of cordiality between Prussia and France; and although there may be at present a disinclination to enter into hostilities, we have little doubt, as we before stated, that Prussia will ultimately find, that she must either sacrifice her honour and her rank as a first rate power, at the shrine of the inordinate ambition of Bonaparte, or resolutely combat in the field the armies of France.
While the French were in possession of Preiburgh, when all the other inhabitants of consequence anxiously sought retirement and concealment, Baron Thugut, with an energy worthy of his rank and reputation, and in defiance of the animosity which the enemy were supposed to entertain against him, caused the following inscription to be affixed, in large letters, to the front of his house: "the residence of Baron Thugut." The French smiled at this proof of his resolution, but their respect for him was not in the least diminished by the circumstance.

Mr. Bradford. Being informed, that some of the gentlemen whose names were inserted in the original list, given by Mr. Wallace to the constable, to be summoned on the jury, in the case of Pew vs. Warfield, consider themselves implicated in the charge exhibited against Mr. Wallace, in your paper of the 10th inst. I feel it my duty to declare, that no reflection on them, or any of them, was intended. HUGH CRAWFORD. May 12, 1806.
Extract of a letter from a gentleman at St. Louis to his friend at this place, dated April 24th, 1806.
"There has been no news here for some time worth relating, until the express arrived from Fort Adams, with letters to the general, of this purport, that he must have all his troops in readiness to start from this place as soon as possible, as the Spaniards are commencing hostilities; they have already got possession of Fort Adams. The Indians show a great disposition to war, they have killed four men on the Mississippi river. The troops will leave this on the 30th of this month."
[We are indebted to the gentleman who obligingly favored us with the foregoing extract, although we are confident the information it contains is incorrect. Our Natchez papers are to the 22d ult. and letters have been received in town to the same date, which make no mention of Fort Adams being taken, and we are confident an event of such importance could not have escaped notice at that place.]
The public will learn, with surprise and indignation, that the identical British frigates and sloops of war, the Leander , Cambrian and Driver , which committed so many outrages and insults in the spring of 1804, and in the spring of 1805, off and even in the harbour of New-York, are now cruising off that place, for their former purposes. They did not suffer a single vessel to pass Sandy Hook on Tuesday last, without stopping and detaining it: the brig Conest , for Nantz, was not liberated on Friday night.
Such gross and reiterated outrage and insult, ought not to be borne with any longer, although they are the work of our "best friends," and since a change of ministry has not produced a change either in the policy or the menaces of the English, it is time there were a force in the neighborhood competent to preserve our citizens from plunder and the nation from disgrace.

The result of the Massachusetts election is at length ascertained to be in favor of Federalism. The total number of votes given, in 401 towns, was 89,933; of which Sullivan, the republican candidate, had 34,735; Strong, the federal candidate 36,203—majority for Strong 1468. [Lib.]
NEW-YORK, April 23.
MURDER!!!
The British frigates which, on a former occasion blockaded our port, and plundered the property of our citizens, have not been contented with the spoils which they then gathered, but have again BESIEGED us. Having captured several outward bound American vessels, with in the American jurisdiction, they have at length consummated their wickedness by the MASSACRE of a peaceful AMERICAN!!!
An American coaster, entering our harbour after having rounded to in obedience to the order of the commander of the frigate Leander , was wantonly MURDERED , by a shot from the frigate. This inhuman conduct took place within a quarter of a mile from the shore —WITHIN THE AMERICAN JURISDICTION—where by the laws of nations, neither of the frigates had a right to fire a single shot, on any pretext.—This horrible outrage baffles all comment!
MURDER OF PIERCE.
City of New York, ss. Jesse Pierce, master of the sloop Richard , a coaling vessel of Brandywine, being duly sworn, deposes & says, that as he was approaching Sandy Hook, and was about a quarter of a mile from the beach and two miles south from the light-house in
his said vessel, yesterday evening about five o'clock, two shots were fired at different times from a large British ship of war with two tier of guns, supposed to be the Leander . That one of the said shot struck about forty yards ahead of the said vessel, and the other went nearly over her—upon which the deponent rounded to his vessel, and about five minutes after another shot was fired from the said ship and struck the taff rail and the quarter rail, and killed immediately a man at the helm named John Pierce, the brother of the deponent, who was a hand on board of his vessel.—That the deponent cannot accurately determine the distance of his sloop from the Leander , but he conjectures it to be above a mile. That the deponent then continued his course and entered the Hook without any further molestation.
JESSE PIERCE. Sworn 26th April, 1806, before DE WITT CLINTON.
Hezekiah Pratt, master of the brig Sally of this port, deposes, that as he was approaching the said port from St. Thomas's, yesterday evening, and within twenty rods distant from the within mentioned sloop, he observed the facts stated in the within affidavit of capt. Pierce, and that to the best of his knowledge and belief they are true, except the killing of the man, of which this deponent has no personal knowledge. That there were at that time three ships of war in the offing, and that the one mentioned in the within affidavit was a two decker, and the largest. That all the said vessels of war fired at the deponent's vessel, at least 20 shot in the whole—but that he proceeded on without coming to. That a sloop of war fired at the deponent's vessel when he was about a quarter of a mile from the shore, and after the within mentioned death is said to have occurred. That about 20 sail of vessels were coming into port at the same time, and that upwards of an hundred shot were fired at the said vessels by the said ships of war.
HEZEKIAH PRATT. Sworn 26th April, 1806, before DE WITT CLINTON.
IN COMMON COUNCIL, April 26, 1806.
The mayor laid before the common council two affidavits respecting the atrocious conduct of the British in murdering John Pierce, one of our fellow citizens, while on board the sloop Richard , one of our coasting vessels, near Sandy Hook. And also in violating the jurisdictional rights of the United States.
Therefore, Resolved , That in testimony of the lively indignation which this board feels respecting the atrocious murder of a citizen of the United States, and this glaring aggression upon our national rights, that the said JOHN PIERCE be interred with the assent of his relatives, at the public expense, on Monday at 1 o'clock, & that alderman Fairlie, Mr. Mott, & Mr. John S. Miller be a committee to make the necessary arrangements on this occasion, that this board will attend the funeral in a body, that all the captains of American vessels in the harbour be requested to hoist their colors half mast on that day, that the bells be tolled during the solemnity, and that our fellow-citizens generally, be invited to unite with us on this melancholy occasion.
The mayor having informed the common council that he had immediately communicated to the president of the United States a statement of the improper conduct of the British ships of war off our port,
Resolved , That the board approve of the mayor's prompt attention to the interests of our city, and that he be requested to obtain such further information as may be practicable respecting illegal captures, impressments and detentions off our port by the said ships and to transmit the same to the national executive, in full confidence that proper measures be adopted for the vindication of our national honor and interests.

PHILADELPHIA, April 23. Capt. Kennedy, who arrived at New-York on Friday, from Teneriffe, informs, that there was a British squadron cruising between St. Vincent's and Madeira—another between Madeira and Teneriffe—and a third squadron of 6 sail of the line, 6 frigates and 2 brigs, cruising off Palma—And, that a French brig of 18 guns, had just arrived there, in 8 days from Cadiz. On her passage, she had an engagement with a British corvette; and in attempting to board her, the Frenchman lost a Lieutenant and 5 men, who falling in their attempt, were kept on board the corvette.

ADVERTISEMENT.  The subscriber offers to the public, a New Invention for Pressing; Calculated to supercede the use of the screw almost, if not altogether. For a cheese press it stands unrivaled, as might be certified by a host of witnesses if necessary; for an oil press, I submit the following certificate from a gentleman of unquestionable veracity.  Certificate.  I, Wm. Crawford, of South-east Dutchess county, state of N. York, do hereby certify that I have used Betts's patent Wheel Press, for pressing oil, and find it preferable to any that I have ever been used to; it produces more oil with less expense, and I do recommend it to the public as a very useful invention.—Witness my hand.  Wm. Crawford.  The machine which I offer to the public (though it comes with a bad grace from me) really merits attention; as in cheese making it reduces the labor from a degree to which female strength is illly adapted, to almost nothing; and in places which are yet in their infancy, this machine will be peculiarly useful, as those kind of presses, viz. the cider, clothier's and oil, are yet to be erected, and may be done at much less expense than the ordinary mode.  Licenses for constructing and using the above invention, will be afforded at a reasonable rate, by the subscriber.  Hezekiah Betts. NORWALK, Fairfield county, Conn.

JOHN W. HUNT. Lexington April 1st, 1806  ARRA KOOKER , is a beautiful bay, with black legs, mane, and tail; full sixteen hands high, and for figure, strength, elegance, movement and bone, is surpassed by no horse on the continent—As to his colts must refer you to Maj. James Heard of Winchester, Virginia, who is at present in this place, and to Mr. Robert Barr, who lives near this place, and whose certificates are annexed to this advertisement.  I DO hereby certify, that I have bred a colt by ARRA KOOKER, and think it extremely large and elegant, with remarkable fine limbs—The appearance of it has induced me to enter it in a sweep stake of 500 dollars—Likewise have seen a considerable number, which are promising—He is supposed to be a sure foal getter. Given under my hand this 10th day of April, 1806.  James Heard. Teste, Danl. Bradford.  I do certify that whilst I was in New-Town, in the Fall and Winter of 1803, I saw several of ARRA KOOKER's colts, they were rising 2 and three years old, they promised to be very fine, and during my stay in that part of the country, I visited Penny-Town, in New-Jersey, where ARRA KOOKER had stood, and general report spoke highly of him as a sure and good foal getter.  Robert Barr. Lexington March 26th, 1806.
ARRA KOOKER was imported from England by Dr. Tate, 1798. Is a beautiful bay, with black legs, mane and tail; full sixteen hands high; a lofty elegant figure, with a great proportion of bone & strength, and moves well; he is from the pure turf blood, he is from the best line of horses in England.  ARRA KOOKER was got by the celebrated running horse Drome (who won 25 Kings plates, Jockey club plates, and matches, to the amount of 5000 guineas) his grand sire was Herod, out of Lilly; his great grand sire was Blank, the sire of Eclipse; his dam was Mr. Dods worth's Chadsworth mare, by Chadsworth, a son of Blank's, (dam of Abba Thule) his grand dam by Engineer, his great grand dam by Wilson's Arabian, his great great grand dam by Hutton's Spot, his great great grand dam by Mogul, his great great grand dam by Crab, Bay Bolton, Curwin's Barb, Spot White legg'd Lather barb, &c. &c.  ARRA KOOKER when three years old won a sweep stake of 100 guineas, two miles, five horses started at New-Castle on Time and 50 guineas Northallerton; at four years old he walked over the course for 100 guineas at New-Castle on Time—no four year old would enter against him, the four mile heat (you may in the racing calendar see) in consequence of an injury in his leg, received in running, he was taken out of training; but of which he is now perfectly recovered and free from blemish.  I certify that the bright bay horse Arra Kooker, this day sold by me to Dr. James Tate, of Philadelphia, North America; was bred by Mathew Dods worth, Esq. of Crake Hall Yorkshire; that he was got by the running horse Drome out of Abba Thule's dam, for whose pedigree reference may be had to the Stud Book, &c. &c. Given under my hand and seal, at the city of York, this 25th day of August, 1797.  A true copy from the original. Conyers Norton.  THE bay horse, Arra Kooker, by Drome out of my Chadsworth gray mare, (the dam of Abba Thule) was bred by me, is no more than eight years old last grass. Witness my hand this 26th day of August, 1797.  A true copy from the original MATHEW DODSWORTH.

IMPORTANT.  TO all those who wish either to become citizens or to hold lands in that delightful country south of Green river. The subscriber being inclined to remove to Tennessee, offers for sale, the plantation on which he now resides, together with six thousand acres of land, situate on both sides of Red river, and Big Whipperwill, including several fine mill seats, and as valuable a body of timber as any on Red river; surrounded by barrens, some of which are equal in quality to any in Logan county; about 90 acres of cleared land, under good fence, a small apple orchard, of the best fruit, a peach and cherry orchard, all in full perfection. On the premises is a large and elegant two story Brick House, entirely new, together with other necessary buildings. In point of health and beauty, this situation perhaps is exceeded by none in the state of Kentucky. The plantations lay one on the north, the other on the south side of the river, a little below where the two forks unite, and just opposite the confluence of Big Whipperwill. Those streams afford water sufficient (the river in particular) all the year to support a merchant and saw mill. A considerable quantity of the timbered land is fine rich bottom.  The subscriber has also for sale sundry other tracts of land in Logan county, and likewise in Christian county, one tract in Livingston county, and one on Cumberland river, Stewart county, state of Tennessee; he has in one complete tract in Christian 15,000 acres, equal perhaps in value, to any tract in that country. It is situate on the main source of Little river, including several miles on both sides of the river, and including some fine mill seats, (this river is a never failing fountain) it is situate in part about four miles below the court house, and extends from thence southwardly down the main river and the Sinking fork of said river, the distance of five miles (or more perhaps.) The subscriber has also another tract of land lying on the south side of Little river, about eight or ten miles from Cumberland river, consisting of 7800 acres, part well timbered, the remainder good level barrens. This and the other last mentioned tracts, has a number of fine springs on them, and are both well calculated to form a settlement for a number of families. The former is sufficient to make a settlement for 20 families; the latter is sufficient to make 8 or 10 farms, and good settlements. The subscriber has for sale, sundry other smaller tracts in Christian, all or any of which he will sell upon terms perhaps more moderate than any such lands have been sold for many years past. [The summer range in all this country is equal to any in the universe] Inimitable titles will be made to the purchases. For terms and further information, apply to the subscriber at his plantation, about 12 miles south of Russellville. Letters addressed to the subscriber, [post paid] and left in the post-office at Russellville, will be duly attended to, and answered through the medium of the mail. If part of the purchase money be paid in advance, a considerable indulgence will be given for the remainder.  BEVERLY A. ALLEN.
