The Well American Journals received in tows,
are the New York to the 9th, and Bolton to the I 3th
ult.—The unfortunate accident of the death of JOHN
Pisacs continues to agitate the public mind its the
United States. The PILOSIMNT has iffued a Procla-
mation, in which he fays that Captain Wurrav did
"commit a murder on the body of Joon Pince, a
citizen of the United States, then poetising his
lawful vocations, within the fame waters and juris-
dittion of the United Stat es, and near to their (bores,"
he therefore calls upon all perfona whatfoever, to
arreß Captain Worm, that he may be proceeded
againft according to law. All !hips commanded by
Captain Warm., of the Leander, Captain NAIRIItp
of the Cambrian, and Captain SIMPSON, of the Dri-
ver, are interdiaed from entering the harbours and
waters of the United States ; all perfons are prohi-
bited from (brain:lag them with fupplies of any kind,
and all Pilots are prohibited fromaffilling them.
The turn which this affair has taken. items to have
added to the confidence of the French patty in Ame-
rica, who indulge in every kind of invellive againft
this country. The Antigallicans however are not
filent. In many of the papers we find articles under
fuch titles as thefe—" French outrage"—" French
cruelty"—" French piracy," &c. containing ac-
counts of American vetch having been robbed and
plundered at Tea by French armed (hips.
In the violence of parties which has been difplayed
on this occafion, the Federalifts are the molt intempe-
rate. Mr. RUFUS KING, foimerly Minifter here. has
dißinguillect Itimfi.ll in the Meetings at New York,
and the Refulutions about the death of Fleece. This
can only be afcribed to the elections going on, where
the two parties are forced to bid againft each other
at the auction of popularity. Some think the Prell-
dent's Proclamation unmeaning and nugatory. and
are for a declaration of war. The moll moderate,
however, ezpe& that when the mat-ter is fairly and
temperately Rated to the Britifh Government, redrefs
will be obtained.

The people of New York have applied for frigates
to protat them, brit it is well known the G.vern•

New York.
