NEW-YORK, Jogs 114.

Avery important motion was laid, in the middle
of June. before the Legislature of Massachusetts,
by Mr. Ely obje& was an amendment to the
Constitution of the United States. providing. that
the Representatives of the several States be ap-
pointed according to the number of their era inha-
bitants. The recent aft of a southern State, an-
thorising the importation of slaves. is the reason ad-
duced Ur the motion. The Resolution was passed
by a majority of 104 against $2.
The Cernbrian frigate, and Driver sloop of war,
have been joined at New York by the B.8:471 frigatf
Charleston, and the situation of the two
bat
es& frigates, lying at Staten Island. becomes
every day more alarming to their Commanders.
Upm this subjea, The Any- reek Daily divertatr,
of the 21st of Tune, says—" The reports, to which
the arrival of the British vessels of war have given
rise. are numerous and contradiaory. At one time
it is said, the Frenchmen are determined to sad at
all hazards—at another, that they bad no such in-
tention even prior to the arrival of the Roston fti-
gate. It is now reported, that Jerome Bonaparte
Las magnanimously resolved to take his passage in
the Didm, and share with his countrymen the dan-
ger of a =counter with the enemy—now, that be
has prudently laid aside the idea, till the concur-
rence of more favourable circumstances. Aprear-
ances last evening seem to justify the corjeaure,
that the French ft agates will not sail soon. Intimi-
dated, Probably. by the proximity of the enemy,
and alarmed still more perhaps. by the bold and
imperious cor.dua of the Cambrian frigate towards
the slip Pia, they yesterday came up from the wa-
tering place. and anchored about three miles below
the city ; where, it is highly presumable, they will
remain I, b 4 44 the meaty pkosee."
