FROM THE SALEM REGISTER; Acrecir O.
Extra& of a letter from Frederick Degen, tie*
to a Gentleman in this town, dated Naples, au!
22, 1805:
" Commodore Barron has resigned the corn:nand
of the American squadron, to Captain Rodgers. He
(Commodore Rodgers) wrote me on the Ist Jones
that peace with the Bashaw of Tripoli was fiesay
concluded; and that the terms were advauteripen/ and honourable to the united States. It appears,thits
Mr. Eaton's undertaking has been attended with int 6.
cess. Mr. Dyson wrote me from Syracuse, that, pre.
vious to the conclusion of Peace, General Loon de.
feated the Bashaw's croons at Derea, and took pos.
session of that town and castle, but received him-
self, during the anion, a mesket-shot through the
arm."
The intelligence contained in the Arm* letter is
derived through an official source ; and announces
the irryortant fag that Peace is made with Tripoli,
and our country:len are free.

The cap s which we dispatched 1.4 t last even-
ing to Salem,:tas this moment arrived, and fu-Wishes
the Nl:ming particelars relative to the before-men-
tioned imp.. rant yews:
o Yeverdar the brig Belk-I It, Captain- Leacst,
arrived here, In sixty-six days, from Naples. About
eight days before he sailed, news arrived there, that
General &tom, at the head of the fru ill Americaa
force which had been detached from our Mediterra-
nean squadron, and the troops crol-eted I: the rival
brother of the dasi.aw of Teavot.l, had hid an en.
gragement with tke Tripoltnes at Defile. On which
sit!e victory declared, see di not learn ; but it wail,
said that General Ea-rotes army soffeted most set'
verely. and that every Ainetiean was killed, ex.
cept Mr. EA TON, who was wounded 10 the gimmicks..
"The effea of the battle, however, was an imme•
diate negotiation for peace, to assist at which, Col
Lz•ii went from Malta to Tripoli ; and two days
before Captain Leacia sailed, dispatches were re.
ceived from Col. Le**. at Naples, bringing toe inv.
portant and gloriens intellig. ac .i, that a peace, highly
honourable to the United States, had been conclud-
ed, and, of course, the Americans, who had been so
long suffsring in captivity, teleased. Capt. LEACH,
we understand, brings dispatchea for our Gro;ern.
merit, co that we may esprit shortly to have the WE-
cial details of the battle, the negociation, and the
terms of peace.
“ The American squadron had sot left Malta when
this affair took place; and there was no intelligence
at Naples of the gun-boats horn the United states
having joined them. Commodore Bail lON, after
he found the negotiation was in a promisinjg train,
sailed for the United States, on account of h s ill state of health."

FROM THE BAETTMORF AMERICAN;
The following extraft of a letter is from a Gen-
tlennan belonging to this city, who went trom Leg-
horn to M'lan, to be prevnt at the 14te Coronation
of Bonaparte

.
" The night preceding theMILAN Coronation, 1805
we had
retired to bed sooner than usual, with the inten-
tion of rising early the next morning to secure our-
selves seats in the Cathedral, to witneu the ceremo-
nies of the day.—Soon after midnight, four officers of
the French gen., d'arme:, with an officer ot the Police.
entered our chamber, and, alter demanding our
Corti, de SEW% which were shewn, informed os
they ..vere trader the necessity of accompanying us
to the Police. Thus far we went cheertuily, with-
ont the least suspicion of what was atter to befal us.
Arrived at the Police, I was delivered over to owe of
the keepers, and concluded to u most loathsome pri-
son, where I found for my companions, nearly dozen of vagabond wretches. Amory's fate wait somewhat similar. excepting his company being
rather more select. Two days following our arreat,
we were re-conducted to our lodgings, our pipets
taken and sealed, and again returned to confinement.
The fourth, fifth, and sixth days, we underwent sepa-
rate examinations, and as I had no papers whatever,
that could in the least implicate me, I was informed
that I should be released on the following day. For
several days after, however, I heard no further of our
process, until I was again called, and made sequaintal with the intention of the Fl enc 6 Commandant of Po-
lire, to send us both to Paris to be delivered to the Po-
lice there. Through the interest of a friend, this mea-
sure, as it respeded me, was relinquished, and to him
I am chiefly indebted for my liberation here. Amory.
very unfortunately, had in his possession a letter
which treated freely of Bonaparte, and it was owing
to this entirely, we were not liberated after the first
examination of oar papers. In consequence of hay..
ins this letter, the Police have ordered hint to ise
sent to Paris, for which he set out this morning,
under escort of an officer. I am pettedly ignorant
of the cause of our arrest—l, however, conjecture.
with others, that it was on a suspicion of our being
Englishmen, and, as such. denounced by some spy
of the Police."
