AMERICAN PAPERS.

BALTIMORE, RINE 10.—Yesterday, for the first
.tiine; atter a lapse of 20 years, appeared the
French white cockade,- and the insignia of the
.-Cioss of St. Louis.. Those signs inspired every-
where but one sentiment of respect and admira-
tion. General \Villot was the first.who appeared
'in this city with the. ancient decorations' of
royalty. Mav such an example of devotedness to
his legitimatelSOverei,,.,u be followed by all French-
men,. who, like himself, have served their country
with sincere affection !

WASHINGTON, JU.NE 13.—The dispatches from
France, by the Olivier, have been. received by
GRyeynment, and by Mr.Serrurier: Those to Go-
vernment have not transpired. • The Intelligencer
may perhaps contain something about them ; Mr.
Sunnier has been confirmed as Minister of
France near. the American Government, by the
new French Authorities ; and it is ,believed, that
he has been commanded to assure the President of
the continued good 1611 and regard of France for
the United States; and of the,hereditary friend-
ship of the Bourbons towards ,us. It is not to he
doubted that-thenew order of things in France is
highly auspicious to the commercial relations be-
tween her and America, and will conduce to the
more speedy,restoration of general cOmmerce, if
not of peace; between us and England.

Asapeace in _Europe is almost certain, and as
practical end of impressment follow, our
differences with the enemy will, it is believed, be
adjusted at the general Congress, whatever inso-
lence the British may, in the mean time exhibit
towards us.

Private letters to the 20th April have been re-;
ceived by Mr. Crawford, by the Olivier. ' tle bad
_dined at the house of Marbois, one of the new
French Authorities, in company with Lords Cas-
tlereagh and Cathcart. • This looks well:
Au honourable peace is the more desirable, to
us now, as, having made a fair 'experiment of the
efficiency of a navy in defending our, commercial
and maritime rights ; a few years of repose and
prosperity will enable us to-increase it to an extent
capable of bidding deflance- to the hostility of, Eng-
land, and of causing our claims on all occasions to
be respected. •
The accounts from Joshua Barney, command-
ing the United' States flotilla in the Chesapeake
to the•Secretary.Of the Navy, come down "to the
14th of June. They state, that there were actions
in the Patuxent on the 9th and 10th of June, in
Which the Britis.h were compelled to retreat, and
to abandon an,lSs-gun schdcier, but which was
afterwards recovered. Several British barges
landed about 200 men at that place at noon; and
set tire to, and burnt a large ship and a brig on
the stocks, besides several other vessels. It Was
stiphlated that no injury should be done to the
houses, or private property.
PufLADELPH lA, JUNE apprehended
the enemy will soon attack Boston. The people
are alarmed. A large suM•in specie has been re,
moved from the -State Bank into the country., Nine
• coasters have been burnt near Bdston.—A post-
script to a letter dated Charleston, 7th June, to
a merchant in this city, says The Southern Mail
of this morning brings a report of the BritiSh hav-
ing landed 2000 troops 'in West Florida.'
ALBANY, JUNE 17.—Sir James \Teo, learning
that the new ship Superior was finished, has raised
the blockade of Sackett's Harbour, and returned
to Kingston. Our squadron have been out fora
few hours, in order to get the trim of the yea'
ships. •

The official confirmation of the capture of the
Essex Frigate was received this tnornitag at the
Admiralty. 'Our Naval News contains a 'short
statement of the facts, to which tve'can only add,
that Captain TUCKEIIt, of the Cherub, was severely
wounded, and the First Lieutenant of the Phcebe
killed. Our lass in,men was very small.

The following intimation which bas been 'sent
'to us with our usual Naval News -most certainly
requires immediate and satisfactory elucidation.
ThatAtherican privateers swarm even in the Eu-
ropean seas, and do great injury to our trade, is
notorious, and it does seem ,probable that their
success could
_not he so marked,' either in- making
captures or escaping from pursuit, unless they hod
ports to run to Mitch nearer than across the
Atlantic.

" It is now quite certain, . notwithstanding what has been
said to the contrary, that American privateers are protected,
armed, and victualled in the French Ports, (ride 'our Fal-
mouth letter received to-day), and it is further known that
the q'asp American privateer, which captured the l‘eindee;-;
-was refitted at L'Orient eight days ago."

Into the truth of this' assertion, inquiry will of
course be made, and such representations or mea-
sures resorted to, as will put an end to similar prae-

ticcs in future.

We this day continue our. Extracts- from'Ame-
rican Papers. The affairs of Europe have given
net, life and spirit to the Fecteralists, and filled
the Republican Admirers of Despotirn .with dis-
'may. In • their despair they vent confessions
which -we t'rust will not be disregarded by
this Country, and we will know what kind
of a treaty-to conclude with those who tell
us before-hand that peace 'is only desirable
" as having made a fair experiment' of the effi-
ciency of a navy in defending our commercial and
maritime rights ; a few years of repose and pro-
sperity will enable us to increase it to an extent
capable of bidding 'defiance to the. 'of Eng-
land, and .of causing OUR CLAIMS on all occasions
to.bei-espected."—Tliese .Claims must he defined-,!

The Joseph, CRIPLIN, :is arrived in the Downs
from Boston, in 20 days.

The Congress at Vienna will assemble on the
Ist of October. It will be seen by our Com-
mons Report, as well as by tine scope of all -the
Foreign New; lately received, that every Power
in'Europe is to. keep up (by 'Convention subse-
4nent to the Treaty of Chatnont) a respectable
military force till the affairs of the Continent are
finally settled. We' rejoice to learn froin Lord
C.AsTLEREAcu, that this measure is only wisely
precautionary, for that the best dispositions .uni-
versally prevail:
