jtitivg. or Mr. FOSTER mom AMERICA.

We regret to *stet that our blinister has returned
from AmeriEs. lie sailed from New-York on the
iirb oh as oar Readers will see by the following
short letter from Portsmouth, received at LLOYD'S
by Express this morning :
Portassoutt, August le, I Piet Seven o'Cluelc. •

Arrived the ATALANTA sloop of war, from New
York, with Mr. Forma on board—sailed 14th ultimo.
The Gs.z4wla ketch, with dispatches from England,
arrived at New-York the day before the ATALANTA
ailed."

To the above we have to add, that Mr. Form has
Dot yet arrived in Town ; but his Secretary arrived
this morning at Downing-street.
From the degree of credit that generally attaches
to accounts sent by express to Lloyd's, the above
liter, as might be expected, has excited no small
degree of alarm in the city. But high as this autho-
rity is generally' deemed, we can state, and we do it
from an authority not to be disputed, that the con-
cluding statement in the above letter, ig that the Gleam?.
ijsl arkieed New red hears Mr. Ffurset tailed," is
not COMM

The Repeal of the Orders in Council was not
town in America when Mr. Fon= came away.
%accountable as it may appear, we cannot but
mak the contrary atatemast as a fabrication for
cdsurcial purposes.

hem the Mowing extracts of letters received this
uee►singb we apprehend that the American Govern.,
beet have already permitted their privateers to cruise
Opidi the commerce of this country :
87• JOHN'S. (Newfoundland,) JULY SC
Yesterday a•vessel arrived from Sidney, the mu-
lct, which matt me, that it was posted up thire
de a sloop, laden with coals, had been boarded by
akAnieriaut cutter privateer, but suffered to pro-
pokoot befog worth takings

aSe confident Id Sir JOHN DUCKWORTH of there
bag America* Privateers at ma, that he will not ,
far a Captain of Marines, Who lately arrived here
free England, to peed in a merchant's vessel to
kin the Alma man of war at Halifax.
" Amounts from Halifax to the Bth instant, state
that Admiral Sawyaa had sailed from that port with
twelve sail of men of war; and it is reported here
that the American squadron is on the Tail of the
hulk,"

The report of yesterday, and which came from
tlymouth, that JOSEPH BONAPARTE and 7000 men
had been intercepted and taken prisoners, by a divi-
sitaof the Allied Army, which had been sent for-
wird from Cuellar, is not yet confirmed. We think
it probable that this rumour may have arisen froits
the hopes that were entertained, that his intended
junction with the discomfited army of MARMONT
would be prevented by the prompt advance of the
Allies.
It was reported in the City this morning that dig-
patches bad been received from Lisbon, giving an Etc•
count of another victory. No such dispatches had
arrived when this Paper was 'put to press.

The latest advice: received by Government from
Admiral Marro/ at Riga, by the Gottenbargh
244 of yesterday, are to the 28th ult.; and although
they speak in the most exulting terms of the pros-
llssts2Sonled by the new mode of warfare resorted
to by Rai* they do not Mention any additional
victoria over the French. But we have through
614 r sOorees received a confirmation to a certain ex-
*it..of ll3B report alluded to yesterday of another
Mint Cossack attack, in which they destroyed se-
rail botanist of the enemy's . cavalry, and took
BOA Prisoners. These are the I" clouds of Cossacks"
%kb were dispersed, as often as they appeared, by
th French cavalry 1 Glorious and brilliant clouds
!art dsey hang over the recreant French columns,
*king them like the pestilential storms and whirl.
10111 of old, with death, destruction, and deso-
allos till they regenerate the base and servile mi-
litias who compose the population of Frenchified
Sitte I
%Emperor AMCCANDZIt is stated to have arrived
on the 23d ult. where he was received'
'great joy.
In another part of our paper *ill be found some la.
ng communications from Sweden, relative to
14 war in the North.
