AMERICA.
•
. NEW YORK, AUGUST e.
Mr. Canning's disavowal of Mr. Erskine's proceed-
ings, in the case of his arrangements with this coun-
try, created no little consternatiox here. America
was quite unprepared for such a disclosure. The de-
struction of one of her cities could not have caused
Mere alarm. When it was reported Mr. Erskine had
acted contrary to his instructions, and that England
wilulci not countenance what he had done, every one's
loots pourtrayed distrust, not knowing whether the
British Ministry were to blame, or whether the blame
rested wholly with Mr. Erskine. Some persons were
a little more reasonable than others, but the genera-
lity exclaimed loudly against the conduct of the Bri-
tish Adtninistration. For a few days, it was very'
irupleasant for a native of Great Britain to walks in
'the streets. Frequently in passing any of the grcups
eat the corners cf the streets, where small parties of
.ten or twelve persons assembled for the discussion of
their important change, I have heard many of them
, observe, in an ill-natured way—" That man is r.n
tnglishman." Their anger has somewhat abated,
but at one time we were apprehensive of experiencing
tl.the like confusion as prevailed when the Chesapeake
-'f-rigate was fired upon, when it wat almost at the
hazard of an Englishman's life if he made his ap-
pearance in public. •
The Baltimore Paper, of this day's arrival, goes
so far as to state, that Mr. Smith concluded the treaty
• with Mr. Erskine before he saw his instructions, and
allows Mr. Erskine to have acted without any atten-
, don to his orders. This may be a mis-statement ;
yet we are very much inclined to believe it, thinking
that our Government could not have acted so incon-
sistently. •It has always been understood that Mr.
Erskine-leans a.little towards America, and was anxi-
• ous for a settlement. During the last Sessions, he
invited to his house several o/. the Members of Con-
gress, who, after they had dined, introduced the sub-
ject of the Ltte happy termination of their countries',
differences. One of the company went so far as to ask
Mr. Erskine whether he thought what had been chine
would be ratified by his Government? It is said Mr.,
Erskine answered, that they could not do otherwise,
, fur England knew the value of American friendship.
too well to disapprpve what would add so much to
the happinesi• of both 'nations s. and moreover, he,
Could assure them of her good intentions, knowing
that she, considered this countryof vast importance,
and wished by all mean:for a reconciliation. There:
Will be much difficulty in persuading this. Govern;
ment to accept of any terms materially different from
the arrangement which has already been concluded,
although it be mined. by Mr; Smith, that he was
'aware of Mr. Erskine's proceedings, being I.!,autho-.
rind. It is the general opinion that Mr. Jackson
Will not be able to bring matters to,any reasonable.

The nation could confer, but 'declines interfering in
State affairs, until the.restaintion i.fpe ce ; an event
which, it 'is to be hOped, will ape: ly 11400. A
negotiation for the accomplishmenrof that desirable
object is opened at frederickshara. The regociitors
on the part of Sweden are Baron Sted mgksantl.C.,lo-
- Scholdebrand.3, and on the part of Rust's** the
Emperor's Minister for Foreign Affairs, assisted by
One of the Secretaries. Considerable .progress has
been made In the ncgociazioa, and Inm assured frown- •
unquestionable authority, that the only articles which
produce a difference of opinion ate, the proposition
for shiming • 'the ports of Sweden against ships
freigh'ed with articlet of -British manufacture, and
British colonial produce; the pnssession of Aland;
and theboundaries of. Russian Finland, viz. whether
the river Rensi or. Calix shall be the line of den: irka-

true spirit of coneiliatiola, to doubt is entertained as '
to the 'result.

it was resolved that Gustavus is himself to state What

CRELLIN AND HIS AMPE.

• •• ••. •

It' wilt be recollected that a charge was lately made
against an 9fiicer for riding his mare from the Race
Ground at York to the Saddle Inn, at Lceds, a dis,
tance of upwardi of 23 miles, irr'an hour and 20 mi_
mates, includingthe time taken for a bait on the road, '
in consequence of which the animal languished for a
few days in extreme torture, and then died.. The
,
statement, which first appeared in rho. Leeds 41: rcury,
produced the folloWing letter from Lieut. Crellin :
TO the Editor of the Leeds Intelligenter. •
SlX—Through the medium of yostr Paper 1 think it neeesnry, .
as an Officer satin 6th Dragoon Guarda, as which I am broughtbefore the Pnblic by the Editor of the heeds Mercury, to cant:li-
cit, a paragraph which appeared in his Paper this day.. &Jett a*. n
hesitation in declaning that the whole of It is false and unfound-
ed, in every particular ; and from 'the manner in which I hens •
been represented by tbat Editor, have•no doubt 4n my mind-that
his intentions towards ate were illiberal and malicious, aril meant
to stigmatize my character as an officer, by imputing to me an act
of excessive cruelty, which, on my honour, as an ofhcer at.l a
gentleman, I did net commit. It is unnecessary at present to state
Any particulars on the subject, being determined to make an ex- •
ample of that Eater, as far at the laws of my country will admits
Leeds, Sept 2. J. C. CiELLIN, Lieut, 6th Distr. Guards. •
To this the following. manly .and. spirire4,4nswea.
has been since made by the Editor of the
To I.teut. Crellin, if Ole nth Dragoon Gua-ds.
Str-nin aietter bearing your signature, inserted in the Leeds
Intelligencer of this week, you have thought fit to coturadielka
paragraph in the last Mercury, relating ttnycni and your horse add"
very punitively to declare, that ' the whole of that paragrat h is
false and unfoundnd in finery particular,' The only important vans
ticulars in that paragraph are theee:The time in winch you rode
the horse from the Race-Ground at.Ynrk to Let:ds on Sinurtianss. '
the extreme agony the animal you rode stabsenuently endured, and
its consequent death on the Tnesdayfollowi g. Allow me to ask if
you mean to acsert on' your honour as an Officer and a I;entleman:
Ist, "I hat you did not yourae!f declare, that you rod the Nix*
front the Rice Ground at Vorls to Lads, in an hour and twenty
minutes; including the time taken for a ban on the road? •
2d, Do you assert upon your honour, that ;he mare did not ex- .
bible symptoms of extreme agony utnil Tuesday night ?
3d, Do•you mean to pledge your word that the maii•ls hot dee?
If you can chew that these, the leading particulars in the para- •
graph ailinlosi to. are false, I shall most gladly contribute what.
ever lies in my power to abate that feeling of indignation *high
