the same Committee.

A remonstrance from the Illinois territory, com-
plaining of the illegal election of a delegate WAS read,
and referred to the Copmittee of Elections, and at
twelve o'clock the House aJjotirned.
What will the good old farmers of New-York and
New England think ot such proceedings ? The
country at war—without men to carry on the war :
withont money and without munitions—and our Re_
presentatives, who are paid six dollars a day, rpclid-
ing their time as if the country were in peace and
prosperity.
Nov. 12.—The House met at the usual hour, but
adjourned ait twelve o'clock, as there was no business
before them of consequence. •

Extract of a Leiter from Messrs. Baring, Brothers
and Co. of London, dated the 24th Sept. 181'2:
44 Our Government have ietu,eci to grant any
more licences to import pruvisions from America,
which, we presume, will put an end to your exports
during the war. The crops in every part of Europe
are abundant, and Spain and Portugal will he amply
supplied frorg_the Black Sea, Mediterranean, Bar-
bary, Batton 'lc."

PRIVATE LETTERS.
" Boston, OctOtr.26,lBlt.

66 I arrived in this country, in 39 days, from Bris-
tol, and am much disappointed in finding the con-
tinued hostile appearance of the American GG-
vernment. The Congress convene next week, from
whom ranch is expected. An embargo will be at-
tempted to be imposed, in order to prevent the use
of British licences ; but the opinion is entertained
that it will not succeed. As to the election of Presi-
dent, so great is the change of public opinion, that
it is confidently expected that Madison will lose his
election. Should this be the case, the country may
yet be saved from that abyss of ruin and destruction
into which a venal and corrupt Administration
have plunged us. The difficulties, impediments,
and obstructions which the Giovernment impose upon
commerce, and particularly that portion which comes
from England, are incalculable. Such proceedings
cannot tail to open the eyes of the people, who, when
aroused to a sense of the necessity of a radical change
in the Administration, as 211 as the Government,
will cause such an alteration in men and measures as
ir will produce a permanent and lasting settlement of
the existing differences between the two countries.
What success the present dispatches, overtures,
and propositions will meet With, we are not yet able
to say. general A mstrong has expressed an opi-
nion that a favourai., termination will ensue. The-
whole country lobk with eager eyes and anxious ex-
pectation to the present session sot Congress. The
sentiments of the people, in every part of the
country, are decidedly against the war, and this
winter will produce a great change in every
thing on this side the Atlantic. Ido not think we
shall have a settlement until the spring : we shale,
however, ascertain, in 4 very few week;, who will be
the next President, and the result of tae present ne.
gociations will much depend ueon this election.—
Should the opponent of Mr. Madison succeed in the
election of President, peace will ciisur ; on ti.e con-
trary, should Madison succeed, it will produce very
serious consequences in this part of the country. Our
privateers have not been very successful, and the re-
pulses of our two Western Armies render the war
very unpopular."
• 66 New York, November 10, 181 g.

" The general impression here appears to be, that
the pacific appearances of the Message and the cor-
respondence between Sir J. B. Warren and Mr.
Monroe are, in consequence of the near approach of
the Presidential Electip, and is conceived to be in•
tended to operate upon the wavering democrats at
the southward. We Federalists are inclined to think
it will have some operation on the election, and at
present cannot give a decided opinion :is to the re-
sult. But our next Congress Hill sheer the Govern-
ment how unpopular their measures are looted upon
throughout the country at large. Not a democrat
from the Northern States will hold his seat in Con-
gress next March. This change is radicals and per-
vades the country at large. The Administration
may, however, this session, save tl.emselves the dis-
grace with which they are cover-tit by making terms
with England before the federal Congress come into
power. We much question the sincerity of our Go-
vernment in their overtnrt.s to yours ; and we st,
much tear, after the election is over, should Madison
be continued, whether this intriguing Administration
dl not throw idvincibie objection that will
either set aside, or at least retard, th.: prt-ent pt-nd-
ing neguciatio . If it SbOUIJ, we need only wAit
with patience until the new Congress c..ine The
admission of Engiish goods into th s country by the
means of your iicencvs, have urrnistieu the Go-
vernment with 4,0)0,000 (say tive millions) of dol-
lars revenue, which they did nor cxpect ,ir calculate
upon, although they s.ckile the mei chant with bonds,
Etc. fcr breaking the Nl/111:. ten our se La, , to be collec-
ted or not as the decision or Congt, ss may hacaiter
be. Should they require the amount of the b,,u,F,

perhaps a zebelli,n be the ~e. Tae anr,i-
hilatiun of our two We.teri. Armits nu the irontiers
has caused a great sensation in the prosecution of the
war ; but the success which :its sir
operations has more wan counterbalanced thi eacc.
however I deprecate this war, I must say, t
the
have given many proofs of it—that Do

are in existence than the American s, los ,ar ;

at an end for the season. Ou t;a: tit the
spring 1 shall hope to return to EnglAnd, and I con-.
tidently expect to bring with mr the olive branchof
peace."
