AMERICAN PAPERS.

Yefterday we received New Yost Papers up to
the 4th of April, from which we have eztraasd
the following particulars:—
SITRACT OF • LITTIIt MOM Ma. CORE, TO I
GENTLEMAIO MI SALEM, OATS]) LONDON, JAN.IO.
4. On the Bth init. Mr. Kum, on the part of
our Government, and Lord Hawatssoar ou the
part of the Englifts, concluded a convention be-
tween the United States and Great Britain, which
terminates all. the crifting differences, under the
6th article of the Britifh treaty. In this conven-
tion it is fliptilated, that all claims of Britilh rub-
jets on the American Government, under the 6th
article, flail be commuted into an obligation of
the United States, to pay to the Britifb Govern
ment 600,0001. fterling, or three annual payments,
the firft inftalment to be paid one year after the
final ratification of the convention. On the other
hand, claims of American Citizens,• for fpoliated
property, are to be adjnfted as provided for under
the Britift treaty, and payment to be made thereof
by the Arias Government at London, at the
above periods, the reft in bills at 6o days. The
duties have been reduced to five per cent. We
thought thefe proceedings would have reconciled
the merchants to deal with us with candour, but
they attempt every day to deceive and defraud the
Adminittration, and avoid its regulations."

On the 2Rth Pluviofe, (Feb. i 7,) General LE.
cLaac publiihed a proclamation, declaring the
colony of St. Domingo in a Rate of blockade.—
The 2d article of it declares, that the only portal
into which veils coming from foieign ports can
,enter (until further orders), are th Ae of the Cape
and Port•au.Prince.

A leiter from Cape Francois, to Mr. Fiction,
fays--44 We found here a number of American
veal' unloading or ready to unload. Their cargo
eonfilted of about zoo barrels of flour, tome
bread, falt provifions, and coarfe wines. The'
merchants, it WAS expefted, would have treated
the French no worfe than they had done Toy s-
omas., but they made the me* extraordinary de-
mands. An embargo, however, made them more
moderate, and the General took their flour at
12 dollars, one quarter in calls."

A letter from New York, dated April 2, fay:—
" Yellerday afternoon arrived from port Republi-
cain, the fchooner Recovery, Capt. Puaca, which
place he left on the =4th lan. Capt. Preece in-
forms us, that for a week before he failed, wound•
ed French from the army of Laci.lac were daily
coming into port Republicain ; that aOOO had ar-
rived, among whom were three Generals whom
be had Peen that an American brig from St.
Marc had brought zoo, that part of LICLERef
ilea was carried away by a ball. Toussaiwr was
in his bong hold,about so miles behind St. Marc,
where Lacssac was refAved to attack him, for
which purpofe bombs were fent from port Re-
publicain." Letters received by the Recovery,
dated, t7di March, make no mention of the above
particulars.

The St. Ja;o de la Vega Gazette of the 27th
February, which we have received, Rates the latch
accounts to have been received at Jamaica from
St Domingo to be of the 23d. It Pays, Intelli•
gence from Adz Cayes as late as Tuefday left,
Rates, that no French troops had at that period
landed there, but that the inhabitants in that quar-
ter were very well difpored to receive them, and
had all taken up arms to refill any oppofition which
might be made to their landing."
On Saturday night, at so minutes pall nine
o'clock, a remarkable Meteor appeared a little
above the northern horizon : it proceeded by a flow
and regular motion from South-eafk to North-weft
—Sometimes it was alznoll invifible, and then
brightened up again to a light bluifis colour. It
continued to be lien about halls minute.
The eircumßance of a Judge fighting a duel
ftrikes us with aftonithment, but that his head
(hould receive two balls without any confiderable
damage, is more amazing (till. Rallltaits's Gera-
:atm csssiata the cannon balls out of his hair after
an engagement almolt appears credible !
It has been publiclyißated at the Court of Peterf-
burgh, that the maintenance of the unfortunate fa-
mily of BOURZON has coil that Court, fine the
year 1791, the fum of fix millions of dollars.
The Pori might have fared himfelf the trouble
of giving the people of Paris a ?loopy indu(fgace, as
they bad already, in the folleft extent of the word,
bellowed it on themfelves.
