ROME, JULY 22.

His Holiness has created- Lucien Bonaparte a Ro-
man Prince, and Duke of Musignano, and has granted
to him the privilege of bearing the arms of the Holy
Ste on all his Palaces.

The Pope has also cnndeccended to accept the de-
dication of the poem of Charlemagne, which is to
appear in the course of next January.

Yesterday we communicated some important in-
telligence from America, and to-day we continue our
extracts from such communications as we have re--
ceived : of the, brilliant affair at Chippewa we have
no additional information, and have only to join our
condolence to that oT our countrymen on the :trim=
of the British loss, while we rejoice at the promise,
once more held out our countrymen ; that those'
gallant spirits who foiled, the disciplined trcops of
France, will laugh to scorn the threats of the un- ,
fledged recruits of America. On the occasion above
alluded to, there were at last six to one in tie field
against the British troops, SOO of our gallant band
wire killed and wounded, and only 40 taken pri- j
scorers; an attestation of the valour with which they
fought. . -
The American 'corps employed on this occasion,
was in all likelihood the advanced guard of another
invading army. They have succeeded, we have no
intik, in effecting a lauding with the main body, on I
the Pr:tish trwttler, for this must have been a come-
gitvuce or the retreat of General RIALL'S small force :
he rctired, hoover, upon his teinforcements, and,
(like one of BLit climes retreats, during the last cam-
paign) General RIALL24 must have been render pour
IMMIX muter. In this view of the case, the temporary
success of the Americans is scarcely to be lamented.;
they will now try their strength in fomenting like a
Mitt hed battle: it is not by the skirmishes of the re-
gulars, or the desultory warfare of the Indians, that
the disputes between the two nations can mow be
settled.

The American army must be annihilated, and an
Awful but lasting memorial given to posterity of she
Lolly and perverseness of those Counseliwhich sent it
into the field to combat not for the substantial sights
of human beings, but for ►he chimerical dogmas of a
et of Phil.isophists and soiairant reconomists, who at-
tempt, like their fellow impostor, Mahomet, to enforce
by the sword, opinions which ate at variance with all
the ethical codes in civilized Europe.
It is with pleasure we mention, that numerous de.
'Admetus of the Heroes from 'the Peninsula and
France are arrived in the river St. Lawrence. Our
Beets on the Atlantic coasts of America appear to
have created great alarm, and done considerable mis•
thief, by a warfare of a somewhat ambiguous charac-
ter ; but the gallant Sir JA1111:3 irso, it is said, resigned
the command on the Lakes.

Among our extracts from the American Papers
we have given a Proclamation of the PRESIDENT, in
which he has been pleased to term our blockade of
the American ports and harbours as a Paper Block-
ade, and as such be invites neutrals to visit America
as usual. In this assumption respecting the block-
ade, hi is once more in the wrong it is true that'
BONA/ARTS and his advocates (among whom Mr.
lvlainition has been the most conspicuous, but by
no means the ablest) did once attempt to rouse the
Maritime Statei against paper blockades, as contrary
to the law of nations; but unhappily for the present
American Proclamation, the numerical strength of
oar fleets actually on that coast and about to pro-
I cored these, will enable uato back our blockade with
something wore substantial and more augmentative
than proclamations. Let neutrals reflect upon this,
and let Mr. MADISOX direct his attention to the pre-
servation of the House which he nicknames the Ca.
pitol.—Premiests ardd Desscalegen 1

Pitwawa, AUGUST 6... Yesterday, soon after three
o'clock, his Royal Highness the PRINCE 11.FGZHT ar-
rivei at Cranboum Lodge from London, on a visit
to the Princess CUMILOTTE.—The eagerneu of the
public, particularly the females, on Saturday, wa%
equal to the anxiety to see the Emperor of RUSSIA,
atC. in their zeal to behold and shake hands with the
Duke of WELLINorow. His Grace, it is understood,.
was brought up at Eton College, and was anxious,
and exerted himself, to see all the places and the
resorts of his juvenile days. The Doke went to
see that highly-admired building, St. Gdorge's
Chapel, the avenues to which were crowded to wait
the return of his Grace • and when that took place,
he very politely shook hands with all the females, with
both hands, as he passed through the line which they
had formed for hon. The gallant Duke was disap-
pointed in seeing the QUEEN, when he went to the
Royal Castle, her Majesty being at Frogmore.

day. Among those who honoured the Noble Earl

Of BUCKINGHAM, Earl TZMPLIC, Lady CARYSFORT

Tuesday last the Old Church steeple of Kilwin •
ning, in Scotland, came to the ground with a dread.
ful crash. It took place about half past five in the
morning, and no person was hurt. Considerable da-
mage was done to a hotise. F tip nents continued.
falling until about twelve o'clock, Aid little now re-
'mains of that venerable pile. The tbanastery and
steeple of Kilwinning were built in 1140 : the former
was destroyed at the Reformation ; but the latter was
allowed to remain, and a few years ago. it was re.
paired, at a considerable expense, by the Earl of
EGLINTON.
Much speculation was occasioned by a hot pressrn
the river Thames yesterday, and by the avidity with
which Government have taken up transports without
regard to price or propostion, and for the long inter-
val of sit months. It was supposed that it was for.,
the conveyance of troops to America ; but on inquiry.
we are told !hat thew transports are engaged for the
account of the French Government. and that they are
tole employed to take out a con petent force to se-
cure a landing at St.- Domingo, preparatory io the
establishment et the French authority in that island.

IG. N. long. 65. 40. We encountered on the
15th and 16th a most violent hurricane, which lasted
• upwards of 15 -hours : there was no possibility of
sheaving a yard of canvas—we were hove down on
our beam ends, and' obligei to heave the lee guns
overboard : had the gale continued, I am fearful
both the Duke of Montrose packet and ourselves
would have been in a very bad way. The direction
is which the gale blew from N.N.W. veering vi
KW, West, W.S.W. &W. South, and ending at
&E. must, in my opinion, been much more severe
with the' Jamaica convoy, which sailed some days
previous; and should they have encountered it in the
Golf, which I make no doubt of, th • consequences,
from a narrow navigation, most be great."
