MONDAY• NOVEMBER 11.

We have received papers from New York to the
14th, and from Boston to the 15th ultimo. The
attention of the community of merchants in the
United States is directed towards the new tariff of
increased duty on the importation of manufactured
articles, which was introduced into the House of
Representatives, and passed in that portion of the
legislature, during the last Session of Congress. The
object of the merchants is to procure the presentation
of petitions to Congress against the revival of the
bill in the session which is about to commence. In
one of the reports of a meeting of merchants, held at
Portsmouth (New Hampshire) cn the 11th ultimo,
they declare that thty believe the passing of such
an act to be unjust in principle, partial in operation,
and repugnant to the free institutions of the United
States; that its avowed object, that of protection and
encouragement of domestic manufactures, is, in ef-
fect, granting exclusive privileges to one class of the
community at ate expense of the others; that it
tends to produce confusion and embarrassment in
other departments of national industry, and to ex-
haust other important sources of national wealth;
that it is uncongenial with the habits, and ruinous
to the interests, of a people who have been taught
to seek their means of subsistence in the pursuits rf
agriculture, commerce, and the mechanic arts; and
that, finally, among other evil effects of such a mea-
sure, it would occasion frequent violations of law,
inducements to smuggling, disregard of oaths, and
eventual diminution of the public revenue. The
embarrassments in the finances of the United States
arise, it is said, from the deficiency of the revenue
for the first six months of 1820, compared with the
same period for 1819; so that either a loan, or an
appropriation from the sinking fund, is considered
indispensable. The city of Savannah, in addition to
its suffetings from fever, which still continued, has
been visited by a dreadful storm, which did immense
damage to the buildings, and wrecked a great num-
ber of vessels is the harbour. The storm is supposed
to have lien still more fatal further to the southward
In a letter from New Orleans it is stated that the
fever raging there has assumed a character as de-
structive as the plague in the Barbary States, and
that not more than one is ten of the new comers,
who had the temerity to remain during the sickly
season, have escaped. Further details had reached
New York of the destructive fire in Nova Sootia,
which is stated to have spread its ravages for near
lOU miles in extent in the anat fertile portion of
the north and western parts, front the neiahbourhoadl
of Yarmouth to the county of Annapolis. The fire.
continued burning for three days ; and such was its
intensity, that the very potatoes (says the New York
paper) were burnt in the earth: hauses, barns, fences,
fields. of grain, stock of all kind., whole village.; and
settlements, tell a prey to the flames. The project
of the American governmara for restoring the ne-
groes to their native country, according to the last
adviees received at Washington from the African
coast, was in danger of failure, on account of the
mortality which the climate had caused among those
persons !prolate!' to superintend it. The
intelli-
gence from the Spanish Alain contained in these
papers is not of later data than has been received
direct in this country. It is stated that the Spanish
Cortea %vho have abandoned the design at' sending
out a force front Europe for the subjugation of the
colonies, hat e given instructions to the Governors of
Havanna!t and of Vera Cras to supply their adhe-
rents in the province of renexuela with 100,000
ea;;!ars par month, to enable them to continue the
