land, from the Committee to whom was referred the
Bill ,to amend 'atld continue in forcelhe.A.Et intitled
An A:.:t to interdia the:cornmereial intercourse
between :the United States and. Great Britain and
France, and their dependenCies,- together with. the
ainendo*Tt ' proposed thereto, repotted as a substi-
tote a new Bill.

Nr. GICEs,. to 'adjourn on-the 2.oth inst. was pass-
ed 'and .cent to the House for concur-
rente.- '

Y'oRK, JULY 16.—A Morning.:Paper (says
Mt? Baltimo're'tederal GazOte) attemptS, most vain-
ly attempts, to impose a belief, that the late British
Order is the re4cinding prittniiistd by Mr. Erskine ;,
and inconsequence of which promise the President
Opened the intercourse with England. Now,
al-
-though the Editor of that paper every day cries out
." give us light,". yet be plainly strews an taticon-
-querable 'aversion to what. little light he . already
'possesses. Every body knOWs, that in consequence
of the engagement_ of. the ilritiSh MiniSter, that his
`Governmeut will 'have removed their offensive.or-
ders on the 16th of June,;the President issued his
prOClarpation; dated April 19, removing the legal, re-
striat:ons‘op our trade with England ; a proclamation
which ail English-haters, hate. This new order is
dared April 2,6, no more than seven days after the
proclarnation. Therefore it could nothlye been that
which Mr: Erskine prolnised. It ~vas,4!spontaneous
aa, or it was procUred byMr: Pinckney on the
Without-'my referefiCe tn.thepladge of Mr. Erskine.
Every well diSpOSea,Citizen Waits with patience the
"arisWer to the American and to Mr. Erskine'sdis-
patehes, -sent out in ,con Sequence of the arrange-
ments Made at Washington in April. If the British
Goternment refuSe to perforni that which the• repre-
sentativenf the King of England has promised, then
might we reprcbate and ivage was against that
.country. Such a state of iliJigs is not at all likely
to enstte7.-and herels the cause of sorne, awn's- vex-
ation, and the .partiapdegfailation of the press.
WASHINGTON, 12.;--The Messenger who
-went to England in the Iva4c' has returned to this
city, and it was at first. said; ,that he .had brought
'vet), bad news, as the .115erids of Fth:tice- were in
They proclaimed that Great Britain
tad been deceiving us i thit while she was holding
out-the dlive-branch, she had. de,,:lared all the world
in a state of blockade.; and thus cut up our conk-
iiierc'e by the root's; :Now r. said they, there is but
"one course for uS „ptp.SUe„, and that is to open in-
tercourse with 'declare ,war With'. Britain,
take Canadaand'N.o Scotia, and establish internalu
n illaufathire's oil a'large scale.. The war party,ps;
sett, that .a c9utest 1-" e-at Britain is no-longer
to be avoided, and it is ertpele,ed that they Nvilf this
very' clay bring forward-sonat:nteaswe or other, with
h view to enable them to
.faiill'their own predieliOk.
I am asSured, bow!ver, that no"alartn exists in the
Cabinet, and that the President'does' not. consOer
that any insurmountable Obstacle to our amiCable ar-
tangetnent,, has as yet been interposed. .

The following are Exfracts from Letters respeaing
public concerts' of some importance.
"'NORFOLK, JUNE •6.—The Haytian
tore, whose .drival was noticed in our last, has been,
understand,
,seiied by ihe Custom-house, as 4
French vessel whose'entry is'fOrbidden by law. This
case will present an important question upon the in-
dependence of the bland of Hayti. It is certainly
'true, that in conformity to the views of the late Ad-
ministration, ana air compliance with the wishes of
.the G'rand:EMperor; our -laWs have said,. that St.
Dqmingo is not independent - How fat-policy may
direa Us* to ref-Ilse to acknowledge the it:dependence
of that Colony, we' undertake' not to say ;
.but the
consequence of the condemnation of this vessel as a
French vessel, will-most probably bring a piratical
war upon Our commerce:" • -
« NEW YORK, JUNE 13.—We learn by Captain
Lake, from New Orleans, that' the French Consul
there had obtained permission from the Governor to
land 18;000 French inhabitants from the Island of
-Cuba; who had been ordered away by the Spanish
•GoVernment. Captain Lake met in the river seven
'schooners and a sloop, and outside the, bar three
schooneri, • all from, St. Jago Cuba,•having on
board 1200 French passengers.. A: ship was to fol-
low with 500 passengers.
-Besides•what we have before noticed with regard
to the Non-Intercourse Act, the American Papers
contain a regular history or the proceedings in Con-
gress. In the House of Representatives, on the 9th
June, Mr. Nelson, on . the part of the Committee
to-which' was referred the. Resolution relative to dis-
banding the military forces raistid under the 'Laws of
April Bth, 1808,' reported the following, which was
referred to :he whole ,House on the Monday follow-
- ing :-" Resolved,-'That under the existing circum-
stances it would •be impeiitic.and unwise to disband
any part of the standing military force ofithe United
States." •
