BOSTON, JULY 3i:

►ican in London, which (later, that Mr. Arm ftryt•g
hal left Paris, to wait on B 'nap ate, at his. head-
quatteri : that mg difficulties at ti e Courts of St.
Cloud and Madrid became more and mote involved

NEW YORK, AUGUST 4.

On• Saturday the Peter(burg't and Richmond de.
tachments of inrantry, under Mai,ir Ambler, em-
barked on board of two veffels, on their return :(;
their refpedive places of refl.% ace ; the fervice not
requiting them to remain longer here. On leaving
the harbour they were fainted by the Artillery Corn
pally, Forts Ntlfon and Norfolk, and cheered by the
Cherapeake frigate.
We have nothing to inform nor diffint readers;
refpeeling the operati ,os of the Briti!h (hip, in the
bay ; a part of them occ iliJnally go nor and rsu (no
again every day. They have not road; any attempt
to land, or taken any (lens refpeelin7 the five prifoli
detained. Commodore Sir Thomas Hardy, who now
commands, behaves, as far as we c.i.n learn, with
great pnlitenefs to the vellels going cu. and cornii,;
in, giving them no interruption.
It is to be regretted that Commodore Hardy had
not commanded from the commenceintnt of this:
affair. We think he never would have Written Fitch
a letter as that of Commodore Douglar, which has
been produdive of indignation fcarcely (hurt of that
produced by the original outrage.
AUGUST. j'.—Yeiletday was the time fixed for the
trial of Colonel Burr, before the Circuit Court of the
United States, to be held at Richmond.

Preparations are making to put the harbour of
Boßon in a complete Rate of defence.
Atraurr 6.—The brig Neptune, from Ring(lon,
Jamaica, arrived this day with ballall and bees wax;
off Kingllon (poke the brig PidiJent, of and for
Alexandria from Kingflon, the Captain of which in•
formed, that he was boarded by a Britith frigate
from La Vera Cruz, with two millions of dollars on,
board. Captain Akeel informs, that previous to his
failing, a Britilh frigate had arrived, with four mil-
lions, and that an embargo was to take place imme.
diately. 'Arrived this day, and at quaran ine, the
brig Sampf‘n, Stout, of Kennebunk, Guadaloupe
t 6, fhip Superb, Lombard, 6r days from River Pla:e.
The account of Lieutenant Pike and his party he.
ing cut off by the Indians, is totally unfounded. The
la,eff information entitled to credit Rates, that his
party, having miffed their route, and palled from the
Red River to the Rio del N.)rte, in the territot y of
Spain, hadbeen arrefted in their courfe, in the month
of February, by a detachment of Spanifh troops, and
taken to Sante Fe, and thence to Chihuahua, the re.
lidence of Governor Salcedo, who had treated them
with great at:ention, and gave them liberty to return
to the United States.

Extra of a letter from the Havannah, dated July
15, 1807, to a Gentleman in Walhingtori :—" Unfor.
tunately, Sir, I am under the dilagreeable neceflity
inform you that the yellow fever and black vomit
rage violently amonglt the crews of our vcffels, and
fume of the citizens of the United States who ate now
in this city.

" I have not heard that any other clafs of people
have been attainted with this horrid dittemper.—
Whether it be owing to their intemperate manner of
living, which has been fometirnts carried to excels
even here, and In the moll fatal leafon of the year,
is what I cannot undertake to fay ; but I fear that
example and danger will not teach many of my
countrymen to be more moderate even in this critical
moment, than at any other period."
NORFOLK, JULY 29.
Mr. Davis, Pilot, was brought to yeiterday by the
Triumph, Sir Thomas Hardy, who put on board a
black man belonging to Baltimore. Mr. I/ was
alfo informed, that there were eight more Ameri-
cans on board, that would be given up on proper
application.

-Captain Fitzhugh, of the fchooner Huldah and
Anna, who arrived yefterday from Norfolk, Rates.
that the account of an aftion between the American
frigate Contlitution, and a Britifh frigate, is not true,
and adds, that there had been no arrival at that place
from Malaga. The two Britifh Officers and three
feamen, taken at Lynhaven Bay, have been re-
turned, by order of the Prefident, to the (hips to
which they belonged.
MIRANDA.-By a Gentleman lately arrived from
Trinidad, we arc informed, that Miranda was fidl ar
that place, and that he was waiting for intelligence
and affittance from England, for the purpofe ot ma-
king a further attempt on the Spanifh Main. Many
are of opinion that he has a Britifh Commiffinn, and
alts under the orders of that Government. No ex-
pedition appears to be fitting out from Trinidad for
the Main at prelent.
Captain Hinton, of the fchooner Mary Ann, who
arrived at Savannah the 12th inftant, in fourteen
days from St. Thomas's, informs, that on the 28th
ult. he was fpoke from a Britifh (loop cutter, and or.
dered to hoilt out his boat and come on board With
his papers, and while in the all of launching her, fe-
veral guns were fired at his veffel from the cutter—
after which he boarded the cutter, where he was de•
tained an hour, and then he was ordered to proceed
on his voyage. Same night was fired into by the
flonp of war Peart, who ordered him to come on
board with his papers, which was complied with:.. C. detained Captain H. and two of his
men on board the Peert, and fent three of his men on
board the fchooner, with infitudtions to proceed to
Tortola ; but owing to the tnifmanagement of the
crew, the fchooner was thrown on her beam ends,
which shifted the cargo, and injured it materially.
Finding it impoffible to work the veffel in fuck a
condition, the Englifhman fent Captain H. and his
men on board of his veffrt, end took his own men on
board the Peart, when Captain H. was permitted to
profecute his voyage as well as he could. Captain
H. on the trth intraht, ah.,ut twelve miles to the
Northward of Tybee, was boarded by an officer
toma tender to a Br ifopof oar, and was car.
tied on board the floop in the tcnder's boat. The
conutett ot the officer from the tender to Captain H.
was extremely abufave—damning him for an Ame-
rican and a rani% and the colours under which he
tailed, and for not hating them when he law one of
his Majesty'„ Tads of war; and afking him, with a
fneer, whether he did not know that war was deduct
between Great Britain and America ?

THE MARINERS OF ENGLAND.

To the Air of " Ye Gentkincn of England."

Ye Mariners of England,
That guard our native leas,
Nl'hofe flag has brav'd, a thoufand years,
The battle and the breeze ;
Your glorious Randards raife again,
To match another foe,
And (weep threugh the deep,
While the ftotialy ttrnpelts blow :
While the battle rages loud and long,
And the ftormy tempeffi blow.

The fpirits of your fathers
Shall flan from every wave,
The deck it was their itld of fame,
And OeeAn was their grave !
Where ante, the boaft of Freedom MI,
Your manly hearts shall glow,
As ye (weep through the deep,
When the fluffily tempefts blow :
When the battle rages loud and long,
And the ftormy tempefis blow.

BRZTANNIA needs no bulwark,
No towers along the flee!) ;
Her march is o'er the mountain waves,
Her home is on the deep :
With thunders from her native oak
She quells the floods below,
As they roar on the fhore,
When the ftormy tempefts blow :
When the battle rages loud and leng,
And the fto-my tempefts
The meteor flag of ENGLAND
Muft yet terrific burn,
Till danger's troubld night depart,
And the ftar of Peace return;
Then, then, ye Ocean Warriors,
Our long and feaft (hall flow
To the fame of your name,
When the tempefts eeafe to blow:
When the fiery fight is heard no more,
And the tcmpcfts eeafe to blow !

The abandoned woman, in her defence, generally
admitted the truth of the foregoing natemenr, with

A child four years old, the only daughter of Mrs.
Rochdale, a widow lady, who occupies apartments
in Portland-flreet, was on Toefday !Wen from the
door of its parent, by a very genteel drefred elderly
woman, in company with anntl;*cr of equally decent
appearance, apparently about twenty years of age.
The elderly woman took the child in her alms with
teeming fondnefs, and walked away from the door
without having excited the flightetl ftifpicion from
her demeanour and appearance. It was half an hour
before the mother miffed her daughter, when (he
became almoll frantic, and what adds to her grief,
the delinquents could not be traced. They went
towards Oxlnd-ftreer, as dcfccibed by thofe who
law the tranfaltion. Another child was floien from
Duke•firect on the preceding day, which I:owever
was (tripped and brought back.
