NEW:YORK, DEC'. 3.—A Letter of .T.E.Romr: BoT
NAPARTE having been published with great pomp
and parade, on, the subjea of. his expedition to Al-
gieri ; and some uncatidid inferences having been
drawn from it, and applied to the,Govern:.neut of
the United states, we publish, With great plea Sure,
the. following stattmthrit of faf,ts, oni a
Source that leaves no doubt with ,us of its, accuracy.
The Negotiations for Italian ,Slaves, throtigiacut
Barbary; hadbeen carried on under the auspices of
France for sometime previous to the cOronation of
NAPOLEON ; and it has only terminated at. .Algiers;
for which a ransom of eighty thousand dollar,: is to
be paid, When JERomE arri !!:11.
on board the squadron no specie, and the bey
ed BONAPARTE'S Notes, Unless their,pt;-rneut‘,.va--.:
guaranteed by some Consul. The Swedish, was.aikc,.„,.
,but he declined ; assigning, as a reason, tine pdlitic.7l
situation of his country. The Batavian 0-f4ired him-
self, but was- rejeeted by the Dey.. Fin wily, the
Danish agreed, and has accordingly given hiS'obliga-':
tion, conjointly with the French, for the payinent of
80,000 dollars, in-thur months. All the captives that
were taken after the C,)ronation of BoNAP A Rl* Have
been "released. A Similar negotiation is going on at
Tunis, but is not yet concl4ded. •

Thus much for the glory and prowess of Admiral.
j.EROME.

The following judicious Otder has been issded
by the DUKE of Yam, as a check to the prac-
tice 'which has so Jong prev oiled- of
.i:pp)int.ttil-r,
pne OffiCer :to the payment of several C mpa
nies ; a praclice no less injurious to the setvice, than
unfair and illiberallou'ards'other

" It having come to the Commander-in-Chief's
knowledge that it is- not unusual in many RegiL
merits, but .more particularly in :the Regiments of
Militia, for one Officer
.tck .be charged with •the
payment of two or more Companies,. 'whereby the
performance. of this important branch of duty is
taken out of the hands of the proper Officer, 'to
the prejudice of ',Toed order' and military disci-
pline, his Royal :Highness, feels it incumbent on
him to put a• stop to this :unmilitary practice, and
to convey to the Army HIS Majesty's Comniands,
that Captains, whether in the Cavalry, • Regular
Infantry, or Militia Service, shall invariably, wheu
present with their Regiments, pay their OWll'l'l'ool3
or Company, and take charge -i)f them in every
respedi: being equally responsible -that their men;'
messes and necessaries are provided agreeably to
His Majesty's Regulations, and on the most econo-
mical principle, as they are for their inilital-y
condu& and appearance ; and in any case where
the Captain'is absent by Idave, duty, or otherwise,
the duty of ComMandant in charge-of the Troop or
Company Shall devolve upon the Officer next in
rank; who becomes, for tbe time, rspoi--isible to
the Commanding Officer of ,the Regiment for the
good' order and •discipline of the Troop or CoM-
pany in every respe4, as if he were the Captain.
He is to receive all monies on account of the • sub-
,
siStencebf such Troop or Corrip,any, and he is :0
take special care that such monies are expen4cd iii
conformity to His Belaiesty's Regulations, with.
a due regard to the comfort and advantaz. e the
Soldier. • -•- - ,
