[WHOLE No. 460.]
The Editor of this paper having made contracts in Philadelphia for new type, finds it necessary to call upon all those indebted to him to make payment, to enable him to meet those contracts.... He doubts not but his claims will be discharged with the more cheerfulness, when the supporters of this paper are informed, that this call is now made for the purpose of beautifying the appearance of the Intelligencer; should it be attended to, the next volume shall appear in a dress, that will give high satisfaction to all its readers.
Although the appearance of the Intelligencer, at this time, is not inferior to other papers, yet, a desire to improve it, will be considered laudable, and when added to the justice of his request, will, he doubts not, be regarded by all his friends.

NEW-YORK, March 16.
Interesting Foreign News.
By the arrival this morning of the Factor, capt. Riddle, in 24 days, and the Frances, capt. Taylor, in 30 days from Greenock, we have been furnished with English papers to the 11th February, nearly a month later than before received. We have published in the Commercial Advertiser of this evening all that our time and limits would permit. Further interesting selections will be given in our subsequent papers.
Among the articles in this evening's paper, will be found the King's Speech at the opening of Parliament, in which it is stated that the American government has connected with the affair of the Chesapeake, "pretensions inconsistent with the maritime rights of G. Britain;" and that "such pretensions his majesty is determined never to admit."
We give also a new and most extraordinary Decree of the French government, in which the emperor offers a bounty of one third of the value of any ship and cargo, arriving at any port under his controul, to any sailor or passenger, who will give information at the custom house, that such vessel had touched at a British port, or been spoken by an English vessel!
The Embargo law was received in England toward the last of January. It was published without much comment in the London papers, together with the explanatory articles from the National Intelligencer. A gentleman, who came passenger in one of the vessels, states that the news of the embargo made no impression on the political circles in London.
The following articles relating to this country will be read with considerable interest.
HOUSE OF COMMONS.
JANUARY 28.
American Intercourse Bill. —Mr. Eden tho' it extremely precipitant to renew this bill at present, before we knew the real sentiments of America. Were ministers prepared to say that America was inclined to join with us in our present contest? If not, he thought the measure an anticipation not at all warranted from the late conduct of America. It was, at least, an anticipation of what ought to be the result of our negotiations.
Mr. Rose, in answer, said he admitted America had acted very rashly, in adopting some of her late measures; he was anxious, however, not to close the door of reconciliation, and he was desirous to meet her precipitancy with moderation on our part. He could not pledge himself as to the pacific dispositions of America, yet he thought it advisable this bill should be renewed for a few months—it would be recollected, that if not renewed, no American ship could enter our harbors after one month expires. He was anxious therefore to hold our moderation and conciliation to the last extremity, and if we erred at all, he wished it might be on the side of moderation.
The bill went through the committee.
LONDON, Jan. 30.
Some French letters received on Thursday, state, that Spain has ceded the Floridas to France, and it is supposed, according to those letters, that the Rochefort squadron is gone to take possession of those settlements.
FEBRUARY 3.
The fleet of transports with 5,000 troops on board now at Portsmouth, under orders for North America, will be accompanied by five line of battle ships.
CHARLESTON, March 2.
It is evident that some information that is relied on, of a pacific nature respecting our disputes with Great Britain is afloat; whether well founded or not, time must determine; at any rate, some seem to give confidence to the report that a change will soon take place in our present situation, for there was a considerable call in the market yesterday for Cotton at 14 cents, and Rice at 2 dollars. Indeed, we were told, that $2 50 was asked for Rice. We have no information that can corroborate these opinions.
[WONDERFUL PLAN!]
A gentleman of considerable information, who has lately returned from Europe, where he has been for a considerable time, related to us a few days ago, the following, as a subject that was much talked of in several well informed companies in which he was, just before he left the continent—
The powers now at war, are to offer Great Britain in the usual way, terms of peace; the ground-work of which is to be the freedom of the seas for all nations, as it is explained by the best and most received authorities.—She is to be asked to restore nothing without a compensation; what she holds by right of conquest, is so small, that her not restoring it, ought not to delay peace for a single day (Malta, Cape of Good Hope and some Dutch colonies)—That if she refuses to treat the Emperor of France, Russia and Austria, are immediately to call a general Congress of all the powers of Europe, by which the freedom of the seas is to be solemnly decreed and promulgated. Great Britain is then to be cited to send a minister there, to say whether she will agree to abide by what the whole voice of Europe has decreed or not. If she sends a minister, he is to be received in the most honorable manner, and the most favorable terms will be granted to her; no proposal is to be made to her respecting the reduction of her fleet; for if she conceives that any good can result to her from such an expensive establishment, after the freedom of the seas is fixed she will be at liberty to act as she pleases.—But if, after being called to this Congress, she should refuse to appear, a solemn manifesto in the name of all Europe, is to issue, in which will be set forth the refusal of Great Britain to let the world be in peace, and her obstinacy in opposing the general wish of Europe, who calls on her to make no sacrifices, but only is desirous of putting an end to bloodshed on principles of moderation and justice. If she still continues to be refractory, a general war is to be immediately declared against her, and every arm in Europe is to be raised to bring her back to the principles of reason. Flotillas and fleets for invading her are to be prepared in every port of the Baltic, on the Atlantic and in the Mediterranean, and armies raised at the general expense for an invasion of the British Islands. The United States are not to be called on further than, if the powers of Europe were forced to the conflict, they were to abstain from taking part with England and furnishing her with supplies of any kind. It was supposed that they would readily accede to this stipulation; because, no nation had injured her commerce and impressed her seamen but England (and because no nation could the establishment of the freedom of the seas be more acceptable, as they had the greatest carrying trade, and it appeared to be the disposition of the people of America not to build large fleets to protect what was only valuable, when it could be carried on by just, peaceable and frugal means. If the invasion should be determined on, the conflict would be dreadful; a plan of it had been, it was said, laid before the emperor of France, which was spoken of as a master piece of invention, and hardly admitted of a doubt of its being successful; a year, and more, it was supposed, must elapse before it could be put in execution, the emperor of France, was to direct the whole; two divisions to be called the right wing, were to proceed from the Baltic; one under the command of prince Constantine, the other under the crown prince of Denmark; several divisions were to proceed from Spain, and Portugal; the commanders of these were not named, though some pretended to say that the Archduke Charles was to be generalissimo of the left wing, but the main body was to go from France and Holland.—The force was to be composed of 200 sail of the line, three hundred frigates, and 4000 gun-boats, brigs, sloops of war, &c. &c. and an army of 300,000 men. In short, it is said that such dreadful preparations are going on as no history gives a like account of; still it was the wish of every man friendly to the cause of humanity, that it would not be necessary to carry them into execution, and great hopes were entertained that the British government would listen to the terms to be offered and that in a few months, its rage and anger would give way to reason.
General Mireau, and suit arrived at N. Orleans on the 22d January. He was expected to leave that place, for this city, in a few days after the Amelia sailed; he may therefore be expected by the first arrival from New Orleans.
BALTIMORE, March 18.
Latest from Portugal.
The brig Orlando from Lisbon, has brought out dispatches from Gen. Armstrong, our minister at Paris to the Secretary of State. The captain of the Orlando informs of a decree of the French emperor, which he had seen and read in Lisbon, in which "The House of Braganza is declared to be no more," and Portugal declared to be a "Province of France."
NEW-YORK, March 18.
Capt. G. Arner, who arrived yesterday from Madeira and Terceira, 37 days from the latter place, informs us that a few days previous to his leaving Terceira, a British ship arrived from Madeira, with dispatches to the governor general, informing that a most distressing famine had commenced at Lisbon. No Portuguese of any description were allowed to leave the country, and great numbers were obliged to enter the French army for subsistence. British troops were daily expected at Terceira.
ST. DOMINGO.
Some important advices were yesterday received from this place, by the ship Mary, captain Freeman, arrived at Dover in 18 days from Cape Francois. The war between the rival chiefs Christophe and Pétion may be considered as terminated; and we are happy to observe, that the event is deemed highly auspicious to the British interests, which the victor Christophe is known particularly and assiduously to favor.
We expect to be able to lay before our readers to-morrow, the authentic particulars of the circumstances which led to this interesting result.
In the mean time we are informed that the president Christophe had twice beaten the party of his rival; that the second action which took place on the 25th of October, proved decisive in favor of the former, the troops of Pétion having been totally defeated and dispersed in the woods of Moutier; and that Christophe returned to the Cape on the 9th of November, where he was received with universal shouts of joy. We are further informed, that many ships had arrived from England with valuable cargoes, and that such was the abundance of coffee in the island, that our ships would all have full freights without any loss of time. Several vessels were about to sail from the Cape and Gonaives, and are of course now daily expected to arrive in our ports.
ALEXANDRIA, March 19.
A letter from Amsterdam dated January 19, says,
"The French are now acting upon the late imperial decree. Vessels that have been visited by English cruisers, detained in England, or put into an English port through stress of weather, lose the protection of their flag, and will be sequestrated on their arrival at a French port, or captured by a vessel of that nation. This decree applies to all the countries under the controul of France; yet we do not think our government will concur in so severe a measure."
From the 8th to the 27th January, the Spanish gun-boats carried into Algeziras twelve sail of American vessels, most of which were taken in, under the Spanish and French decrees. None were condemned on the 28th that had been taken in on the new principle, but it was expected all would be indiscriminately; the batteries were frequently firing a salute on the arrival of a prize, which they seldom do except very sure of a good one.
MARTINSBURG, March 25.
From the Nat. Intelligencer—March 21.
We understand that the negotiations between our government and Mr. Rose were, on Friday last, brought to a close by the receipt of his final note. They are said to have been suspended on the preliminary requisition made by him that the President's proclamation should be rescinded. Mr. Rose, in the first instance, apprised our government of his authority to offer reparation for the attack on the Chesapeake, without specifying what that reparation would be; but required that previously to its being made the proclamation should be revoked. Much interlocutory matter passed; when he was informed that if he would state the reparation and assurances he was empowered to make, and they should be considered by our government as satisfactory, they would be taken as a pledge of amity, and that the act of reparation and revocation of the proclamation should bear co-temporaneous date. This, in his ultimatum, he declined doing.
It is understood that early in the week a very comprehensive communication will be made to Congress, embracing the whole of the negotiations relative to the Chesapeake, the whole of the correspondence on our general relations with England, and so much, respecting the other European powers with whom we have had differences, as will give a full view of the state of our relations with them.
From Alexandria, March 21.
Mr. Rose has taken his passage in Palmer's Packet for Norfolk, and will sail on Wednesday—we understand a messenger was dispatched some day last week to the Statira frigate, with orders for her to be in readiness for his reception.
The military court of enquiry in the case of Gen. Wilkinson met on the 15th inst. Having no business before them they adjourned to that day week.
PENNSYLVANIA POLITICS.
There appears to be three candidates for the Governor's chair in Pennsylvania. The Federal Republicans have nominated JAMES ROSS, of Pittsburgh; the Quids have set up JOHN SPAYD, of Reading; and the Democrats have determined to adhere to SIMON SNYDER. Great will be the contest.
The members of both branches of the Legislature of KENTUCKY have unanimously recommended JAMES MADISON, as President of the U. States.
A letter from New-York, received at the office of the Baltimore American states, that the corporation of that city provides daily during the present pressure of the times, for upwards of 3000 poor, besides giving work to many more in filling up lots and digging away banks for the improvement of the city—an example worthy of imitation.
Captain Spink, of the ship Columbia, arrived at New-York, the 14th inst. from Cadiz, informs, that on the twenty-sixth of January, off Madeira, was boarded by the Dragon, captain Scott, seven days from Falmouth, in company with seven sail of the line under the command of admiral de. Courcey. The boarding lieutenant informed that there had been a TOTAL CHANGE in the BRITISH MINISTRY.
The "Democratic Press," published in Philadelphia, states, that N. York and Pennsylvania are unanimous in favour of Clinton as president.
It is with regret (says the Virginia Argus, a democratic print,) we observe the increasing symptoms of an approaching schism among the republicans in this state. That difference of opinion relative to the choice of a president which at first appeared to arise only from the partiality of personal friendship, seems now to be growing into a contest of principle, and attempts are made to draw a broad line of distinction between the friends of Madison and Monroe.
By accounts from North-Carolina we learn, that the people of that state, in consequence of the embargo, have agreed by common consent to stop law. They will neither permit any writ of execution to be levied nor any goods to be sold at auction pursuant to such a writ.
CONGRESS.
HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES.
March 17.
The following Message was received from the President of the United States and referred to a committee of the whole on the state of the Union.
To the Senate and House of Representatives of the United States.
I have heretofore communicated to Congress the decrees of the government of France of Nov. 21, 1806, and of Spain of Feb. 19, 1807, with the orders of the British government of January and Nov. 1807.
I now transmit a decree of the emperor of France, of Dec. 17, 1807, and a similar decree of the 3d of Jan. by his most Catholic majesty. Although the decree of France has not been received by official communication, yet the different channels of promulgation through which the public are possessed of it, with the formal testimony furnished by the government of Spain in their decree, leave us without a doubt that such an one has been issued. These decrees and orders taken together, want little of amounting to a declaration that every neutral vessel found on the high seas, whatsoever be her cargo, and whatsoever foreign port be that of her departure or destination, shall be deemed, lawful prize; and they prove more and more the expediency of retaining our vessels, our seamen and property within our own

harbours, until the dangers to which they are exposed, can be removed or lessened.
TH: JEFFERSON.
March 17, 1808
March 18.
Mr. Dawson, from the military committee, laid on the table the "Act for raising an additional army" with sundry amendments.—Made the order of the day for to-morrow.
Mr. Livermore, after a very eloquent introduction, in which he took occasion to observe, that the present state of affairs could not justify the belief that there would be a war with England; but that it evidently appeared, by the decree of Milan, &c. both France and Spain had made war against us: and after taking a view of our exports, and commercial profits for the last year; observing that those of the present were paralyzed by the embargo, and adducing data to prove that we should suffer losses greater by its continuance than could accrue to us from an actual state of warfare—offered the following resolution:
Resolved, That the public good requires that the several laws laying an embargo on the vessels of the United States, should be repealed; and that a committee should be instituted to inquire into the expediency of permitting the merchant vessels of the United States to arm for their defence, against certain cruisers, and to associate for the purpose of convoy; and to inquire into the expediency of suspending commercial intercourse with France, and the nations under the control of the emperor of France, and report by bill or otherwise.
The ayes and nays were called, when the resolution was negatived—ayes 24—days 84.
SATURDAY, March 19.
The whole of this day was spent on the bill for raising an additional military force. It went through the committee of the whole, and was reported to the House. Considerable progress was made in the details of the bill; but they were not perfected, when the House adjourned, it being then near four o'clock.

The high-bred running Horse HAMLINTONIAN,
IS a beautiful Chesnut Sorrel, sixteen hands high, now rising eight years old, a horse of fine bone and strength, his stock inferior to none in America.
HAMLINTONIAN was got by the imported horse Diomed, who has produced more good running horses than any stud now in Virginia; his dam by the imported horse Shark, his grand dam by gen. Spotswood's Apollo, his great grand dam the celebrated Jenny Cameron, imported by colonel Tusco of Maryland; Jenny Cameron the great grand dam of Hamlingtonian was also the dam of the celebrated running horse Damon, and several other good racers.
Performances of the high-bred running Horse Hamlingtonian.—In spring 1804 Hamlingtonian won the Cup given by the Jockey Club at Richmond, which entitles him to high credit....The week afterwards he won with great ease the Proprietor's purse at Broad-Rock, three mile heats....Fall 1804, Sept. 25th, he won the Proprietor's purse easily at Richmond, three mile heats....October 2d, he won with the same ease the Proprietor's purse at Broad-Rock....October 10th, he won the first day's Jockey Club purse, four mile heats at Fredericksburg, running sixteen miles, after a severe journey from Richmond and Broad-Rock....May 3d, 1805, he won, as usual, the Proprietor's purse at Richmond....October the same year, he won the second day's purse at Richmond and Broad-Rock, and immediately travelled up to Washington where he started for the Cup a single four mile heat against Gen. Ridgley's famous horse Post-Boy, and was beaten by only half a neck and with great difficulty, notwithstanding his seven running before and Post-Boy being fresh, never having started before in all that year....Hamlingtonian has never started since and is now in the highest perfection, &c. &c. for blood and racing points cannot be exceeded by any horse on the continent.
