cates the following intelligence:
•• The Bellona, of 74 guns, Basile's, 44, Aeaeta,
44, HaVac, 22, Bermuda, 22, Odseroateur' le, and
ladiaa, 24 were repairing with the utmost dispatch.
The rifle de Aldo*, of 44 guns, laden with
water, was to sail for the Chesapeake on the eth of
August, and was to take under convoy the late
American brig Eutaw. also laden with water.

i•LTIMORB, AUG. 18.
" Arrived the schooner Ali:a. Husbands, twelve
days from Barraccoa, left prize brig —, Grash,
for New York, in four days. No American vessels
had been carried in there lately. 'three days after
the Eliza sailed, an Erglish frigate landed 180 men.
fir the purpose of taking out the cargoes of two va-
luable prizes, and plundering and burning the
place. They were opposed by 400 Frenchmen,
who attacked and wouaded tO, and took the rest
prisoners. who afterwards would have been massa-
cred by the Spaniards, if they had not been pro-
ceded by the Drench privateers-men. They ezpea-
ed an attack every day from the British. The place
was in great confusion; all the privateers were get-
ting ready to go to St. Jain se avaid th► storm.
" The fifth day'. trial or Barr was principally
confined to the cases of the Jurors."

I•YONNL, SEPT. 7.

His Excellency, the GJvernor of Paris, General
in Chiet of the Army of LA Gironde, who has taken
up his cantonments in our dcpart.nent, received on
the 4th the civil and military authorities, the tribu-
nals, and the chamber of commerce.

On the s!ii the merchants were presented to him.
M. Cabsrrus addressed his Excellency in the follow-
ing speech
Monseigneurm-The merchants of a city, distin-
guished for fidelity to its Sovereigns, come to pre.
sent their !village to your Excellency. The high
confidence which His Imperial and Royal Majesty
has long placed in your Excellency, indicates the
importance of the commission which you are about
to execute. Without seeking to divine the secret,
we indulge the hope that its results will be favour-
able to commerce.

*, It will he highly flattering to the illustrious co-
operators, such as your Excellency, I. the vietnries
of the Hero who governs us, to be associated with
him in the benefits he dispenses, after having been
the companions of his glory, and to share the bane-
diflions reserved for the Pacificator of Europe.

" If the exeicise of the funtlious garrotted to
your Excellency required the concurrence of com-
merce, you might be assured, Manseigpeur, of the
devotion of the citizens of Ilayouse,:' 'four Excel-
lency has personal claims upon it. for the protec-
tion which you grante.l it, during the period at your
embassy at Lisbon. We esgetly embrace this up-

THE BRITISH PRESS.

LONDON,
WEDNESDAY. ()crow' S.

The visit of General Jorsor to Bayonne being a
subjeCt of much speculation, we have copied from
the Paris papers an article giving an account of
the proceedings of that Officer, from his arrival at
Bayonne. on the 3d of Sept. to the 7th inclusive.
The introduction of the subjed of commerce, and
the allusions to Portugal. clearly paint out that
country as the marked (Nell of his mission, and
that B tyonne may expea to derive some advantage
from the med:tated ruin of Portuguese Commerce
and Independence.

At a late hour last night, we received letters and
papers from New York, to the 29th of August.
They bring down Colonel Buaa's trial to the 22d
of that month, at which time it was the general opi-
nion in America, that he must be acquitted. The
apprehension of the yellow fever appears to have
been an unfounded alum. With the exception of
the itfilansa, or sore eyes. that city never en-
joyed better health. The effervescence of passion,
excited by the attack upon the Chesapeaie. has
subsided ; but a solid and settled determination to
resist some of our claims, remains behind. The
Americans will risque a rupture with England rather
than allow their ships of war to be searched. They
are also determined to have some reparation for the
attack upon the Cherapesie. These two points being
settled, no interruption will take place in onr pre-
sent relations. We have only room or time for the
following curia, the rest will appear to-morrow :

THE RAMER PACKET
AND CAPTAIN BOULDERSON.

No British Packet ought to be permitted to come
■p to New York. While they are allowed to ror,
which it is probable will not be long, they can put
their Mail on shore on Staaten Island, and send it
op to the Pest Office by our own passage boats.

The British Packets used to come to the East Ri-
ver, but on account of some insult 'hewn by one of
them to the French Packet from Havre, Governor
Clinton ordered the British Packet to the North
River. It ought now to be ordered to Staaten
Island, and neither the Captain nor any of the Offi-
cers be allowed to come to the city.
In the present state of affairs, a British Packet can
be considered only as a spy, to see what is going on
in our harbour, end it is well known that there are
British Agents, British Emissaries, and British Mer-
chants enough in New York to give every informa-
tion the Captain may require to carry home to his
employers.

Yesterday, the Duke of Yoga held a public day,
at his Office, in the Horse Guards, and gave au-
diences to General Sir ARTHUR WaLtcsLev, upon
his arrival from Copenhagen, and General WAD,
upoa his arrival from Egypt; as well as to a num-
ber of other Officers.

The Providence armed ship, with a fleet under
convoy, from the Baltic. is arrived in the Humber.
Accounts from St. Domingo state, that Pertoo,
and with him the remnant of the French party, in
that island, are in danger of total extirpation.
A Paper of yesterday awes that the disturbances
in the county of Limer ck have originated with
some Gentlemen's footmen and cowherds, who have
availed themselves of the Irish Arms Prevention
Bill, to break open houses, for arms, and commit
nocturnal depredations. We believe that the ac-
count given in our Paper of Monday, upon this
subjea, will prove correa.
Extra& of a Letter, dated Greenock, Claober
2:—" You will probably have heard of the cap-
ture of the privateer that has done so much mischief
is the North Channel. Some of her prizes are re-
captured; and, as three frigates went in chase of
them, you may soon ex pea to hear of the others."
A vessel from Pappenourgh arrived on Monday.
According to the intelligence received through tiiis
vessel, toe French 'troops are rapidly concentrating
in the vicinity of Poland. The whole of the ten:-
tories in that dire Linn, which were separated from
the Prussian monarchy by the treaty of Tilsit. are
crowded with Freoch soldiery, the inhabitants
having not less than five or six soldiers quartered
upon each. From this pres‘ure the inhabitants
were occasionally relieved, but the period of their
relief was short lived, one body appearing to oc-
cupy the <lll4lters almost immediately after another
had marched off towards Poland Still, as our in-
forma:at mentions, the unfortunate inhabitanss were
not heard to alumni. No; accustomed to the en-
durance of calamity, and aware that complaint
svvulif only serve to aggravate their situation, they
bend to it with all the silent acquiescence of broken-
down desponding slaves.
