SEPT. runt's of' the' istcrpe
parte, which wai yesterday received at the &lice
of this Gazette, from Pl'EfediiniorecoiTesppnileht,
produced a considerable sensation. It was sitpposed
that this' newt; Was put into' circulation to effect a
great dry-goods sale in this city. This cold, more
without- foundation, but quite as probable as
the report of the' escape` of this great, character
m fro the Wand of St. Helena. If Bnonaparte

common than mismiderstiandings at sea ill Itai-

remarks are not made with a view of forcing on
the public' our opinion of the 'report ; hilt such

lease of litninapatte, that his ultimate return to
Europe is no improbable event.
Captain Randelet, of the brig Havanna!) packet,
who. has arrived at Baliimore, in 24 days, from
fits Polpingo, states, that some time previous to
his sailing, a Spanish schooner arrived there farm
New York, which was captured near that island
by one of tie Patriot privateers, and %Vas ransomed
for 6,000 dollars. The crew of the- privateer in-
formed the passengers in the schooner, that they
had captured, an. Arneyiean brig, murdered all the
bands, and set ,her on fire.

served us. They are obstinately blind to ell
tilt
blessitins of which it ha's secured to as the posses-
sion. Anil, they pertinaciously ascribe -to it,
every•atom of reel or imaginary evil which they
can possibly discover in the State, or which their
practised imaginations can invent. Without
ascribing any cat it to. the necessary portion of
evil, interwoven with the very nature and consti-
tution of human society—without, above all,
allowing that any of it is attributable to the great
contest itself, instead of to that system Which has
brought it ton successful termination—all, all is
owing to the detested Pitt System, which has
falsified so many prophets, and dissolved to empty
air the sagecious calculations of so Many notable
politicians
" We will not now revert to the inquiry whe-
ther any more evil, or how much More, is at pre-
sent to be found in this country, than before the
French Revolution, Mr. Pitt and his System, or
the disappointed prophets and croaking politicians
had existence. Your sticklers for what they are
pleased to term Liberty of the Press, have no ob-
jection, when it is employed in opposition to
their own doctrines, that it should be controlled
by a species of " argument," which " cannot well
he resisted !" Granting that the distress of the
country is as great as:they can conceive or-desire,
and this is granting all that their irresistible ar-,
gotneets' contended for, it will be easy to show
that Pitt prineiples have not betin the source from
whence it sprung. The War through which the
principles of WilHain Pia so suecessfully curried
us is acknowledged to have been necessary and
just ; and the evil, if it toilt sprung from either of
these sources, beet been owing, not to the
successful system, but to the sear itself, and to
its original cause, the French' Revolution. The
county could not hope to come out of such a
struggle without a bruise, and ought therefore
rather to rejoice the evil is not greater, than -to
vepine at its real extent. We know that the men
who, recommended another system would have
made:a premature peace ; and that, of course, by
them, the evil of the war would have been eptal-
ly entailed upon the country, without either the
security or the glory of SUCCE£ I : or, under an-
other systion, the war might have terminated in
abselitte diseomfiture—tise evils of which arc too
frightful evert for.contenipiation.
But the trahla, the evils• which really exist
--s-the 'oppressive hoithen of -palish rates, and the
difficulty of proctiring employment, are owing
neither to the war nor the Pitt System, bnt have,
their origin in causes Which the propagatOrSof
