emote. T could add the just gratitude we all owe
to a nation which is with that uch zeal favouring and
supporting us, persuaded the low minded only
receive and do not give.
Our judgment may be er-
roneous, but our intention is pure. For my own part,
I have not, nor can have, any other interest than that
tithe nation. This is so strong that it gives me
fteength to fill a post I should otherwise be unable
i
to maintain, and which s only not hateful to me, be-
cause I believe it enables me to be of service. I there-
fore feel acutely reproaches which may insinuate that
I have other views. A Government should not be
censured without muck previous thought and reflec-
tion ; still less at a moment when those who do net
act, and who have no honest employ, desirous to fix
a stain on those who do not imitate themselves, are
ready to inflame the public mind.
I have also received many anonymous letters on
this business. How will they not increase, and how
much more will not the Solomons of the coffeehouses
dawns, when they find themselves authorized by
your opiniDn, to whom, with much reason, they attri-
bute vast knowledge, prudence, and patriotic zeal.
God preserve you many years l (Signed)

Some days ago we announced that British Manu-

by our commercial readers.

It is known that the French who entered Bilboa
under the command of Marshal Ney, pursued the
division of the Marquis de Portazgo, but have been
compelled to fall back. The intention of that Gene.
ral and Marshal Bessieres was, with a corps of 35,000

failed in his attempt. A division of 10,000 Asturians
have begun to form a junction with that General.

Falmouth, two English packets, the Lady Piller,
Captain Harley, and the Prince of Wales, Captain
Erskine ; and yesterday entered this harbour, cap-

the French sloop la Brocature. She sailed from
Gnadaloupe with a cargo of cotton, coffee, and other
goods, and reached our roads after a passage of 3.5
days. Part of her crew are Spaniards, who state
that on their departure from the above island, nothing

Yesterday morning arrived the Nonpareil, with the'
French schooner : she proves to be la Belle Coquette
last from Guadaloupe, with a cargo of coffee, cot-
ton, and sugar, valued at 50,000 dollars.
Her crew consists of all nations, the greater part
Americans. After she struck to the Nonpareil a
breeze springing up, she attempted to get off, but the
Nonpareil getting out her sweeps, and giving her one
or two broadsides, she struck, and was taken posses-
lion of ; she is a fine vessel, and sails remarkably fast.
