We have received New York papers to the 9th of
December. They contain little news of any intereti,
and none of importance. The attention of the Con-
grefs is occupied with the impeachment of Judge
CHASE, whofe trial is not expeted to be over until the
end of March. A copy of the as of impeachment is
given in the preceding columns. JEROME BOAAPAR re
was on the 7th at Dumfries, within thirty miles of
New York, after having made an unfuccefsful attempt
to return with his family to France.

The accounts from Jamaica reach down to the
18th of November.

The Houfe of Affembly met on the 23d of Odo-
ber, and the greateft cordiality fubfifted between that
body and the Governor, althccgh it is imagined that
the fupplies will not be granted to the full extent de-
manded. On the 24th of Odtober a Committee of
the Houle of Affembly was appointed
" To inquire into the Reps which hive been taken in the Par.
liament of the United Kingdom, for an Abolition of the Slave
Trade—into the meaft.res adopted for equalizing the Duties on
Sugar imported from the Eaft Indies, and from the Bridal Colo-
nies; and the Additional Impofts which hive been laid on our
principal Staples—to confider the Elfedts which there Meafures
have produced, and are likely to produce, on the Agriculture and
Commerce of this Colony ; and to report the Fads, with their
Opinion of the Condit which ought to be ;maned by the Honfe,
in the diltreffed f.tuation to which the Wand is reduced."
It is worthy of remark, that all the papers fubfe-
quent to the 24th of °etcher which have reached us,
and we have teen many, are totally filent on the re-
fult of the very important fubjeds committed to the
deliberation of the laid Committee. Prudential mo-
tives probably induced the Affembly to enter upon
thefe difiuffions with shut doors, and the total exclu-
fion of all ftrangess. The Report has therefore not
been publifhed.
The Commander of the fouadron on that Ration
was apprized by difpatches, tranfmitted to him from
England, and received at the latter end of Odober,
of the probability of holtilittes with Spain. The veffel
which carried them out, failed from Plymouth on the
22d of September.
A letter of the tyth Rates, that trade was very
brills, and that the apprehenfion of hoflilities with
Spain, having, in tome degree, fubfided, the trade
with that country had returned all its former ativity
fince July laft.
A letter from St. Domingo fays--" The unfortu-
nate white females, who efcaped fo many maffacres,
appear to have been referved for a (tats; of Qavery

.rfe !Nu, death, being fuhjetged to the, brutil tiar-
a; ci the black+, and the moil menial and labo-

torn of St. Domingo was reduced to 600 men,

Januica recrefcm that illand as being in a

in addition to this (topical:nit intelligence, it is

Li: been experienced on board of that (hip.--
...s ~c stzr part of the crew were in a fickly (late on
ale 1 tith of November, and prior to that time, and
ishilfl the [hip was lying iu the harbour ; forty-Gs
f the crew died, :is of whom were Midlhipmen.—
Ile Captain had hinifelf been attacked, but was in
convakfcent Hate when the Lai advice% came
sway. Several other (hips of war,- we learn, have
laffered, but we are not able to (late their precife
lofs. A letter under date of the(7th of November,
twin the Lord Middleton merchantman, expelled to
tail with the fiat convoy, mentions that a ficknefs
ozerailed on board of that (hip, as well as many
.thers in the trade. Great confolation, however, is
derived from the favourable feafou of the year at
which it has appear ed, and fanguine hopes were en-
tsrtained that the cold weather would effeaually flop
its further progrefs.
His MAJISTY'S Minifiers have called npon the
College of Phyficians, to appoint a Committee of
their Body to decide nn the proper meafures to be
taken in cafe of the Infatious Fever finding its way
.nto this country. This requifition has been promptly
complied with, and three Medical Men, converfant
with this diforder in the Levant and Well Indies, are
appointed for this falutary purpofe. This precau-
tionary meafore has arifen from an application made
by Mr. Bosasq'vr, who is principal owner of a
cotton (hip from the Streights, which has recently
been plundered while under quarantine I

Our Plymouth letter received this mnrning, Rates,
that :t (hip had jnfi hove in fight from the weßvrard,
having in tow a ftigate, with the lots of her main-
man, and fuppofed to be either French or Spanifh.
The latter, in all probability, is la Guerra Spanifh
frigate ; the capture of which, by his Majefly's flsip
Poly ONIIMUS, was announced in the Smut of yeller-
day.
