We have received New York Papers to the 1 eth
last, from which we have made some extrafts.
They contralliCt the report, which rated, that 1,500
British troops had landed at Cape Nichola Mule,
for the purpose of retaining possession of the pla
there being no British force, naval or military, is
that quarter, at the time the relent took place.
The Alesander flareinun arrived on the Ist of No.
vember at Boston from Calcutta, which place she
left on the 20th June. She brought papers, which
state, that, on the Ist June, His Masesev's ship
Culiartar, bearing the flag of his Excellency Rear-
Admiral Sir EDWARD PIILLRW, Commsmdersin.
Chief of His M AJILSTY% squadron in the East
Indies, was at Madras, with the Lard Mogan,
Cornwallis, Earl Hew, Concorde, and brig Harriet.
Admiral Li tools had resigned his command, and
was to return home. The yellow fever has coat•
pletely vanished from New York tend Philadel-
phia, and uo apprehensions are entertained of its
return, t:i:s season. The public mind is now agi.
tated in a considerable degree by the fear of a
rupture with Spain.—We have extracted several
passages respeeing this labial from the New-
York Papers. Congress will meet on the first
Monday of next month, when this business will '
be taken into consideration. A letter of the
17th last, says-4, We are waiting anxiously for the
Meeting of Congress, which will pmbably decide
what is to be the future situation of this country
with regard to Spain. At present we have nothing
upon which to found an °plaice, but the naprin.
cipled aggressions of that Government. These
would induct a belief, that hostilities were aneroid•
able, were it not for the pacific temper of our Go-
vernment."
