BALTIMORE, AUGUST 18.

Arrived the fchooner Eliza, Hufbands, 12 days
from Barraccoa ; left prize brig —, Grath, for
New York, in four days. No American vefrels had
hien carried in there lately. Three days after the
Eliza failed, an Englifh frigate landed too men, for
the purpole of taking cut the cargoes of two valua-
l.ie prize!, and plundering and burning the place.—
They were oppofed by 400 Frenchmen, who attack
ed and wounded 20, and took the reit prifoners, who
afterwards would have been mairrcred by the Spa
niards if they had not been proteeted by the French
privateer's men. They expelled an attack every day
fr in the Britilb. The place was in great cnnfution;
all the privateers were getting ready to go to St.
Jar), to avoid the form.

NSW YORK, AUGUST 31.

" We have (pared no trouble this morning to ac
quire a entre& knowledge of the fafis connected with
the villainous fcizure of the valuable fltikt within our
own waters. The cafe of the Othello, as far as we
are permitted to hate at prefent is this—The Othello
was art American atilt, commanded by Captain
Glover, bound from Liverpool for Baltimore, and
came to anchor fait Sunday morning in the Patuxent,
being a mare agreeable harbour with a head wind
than the open bay. Some time after, the Captain
of the French frigate Patriot came on board the
Othello, where he continued two hours. The be-
haviour of the French Captain v.as gentlemanly; and
he obtained from Captain Glover frame En giilla newt'.
papers. Soon after the French Commander had re-
turned to his fhip, Captain Glover difeovered a
fchooner alongfide the Patriot, which proved to be a
French privateer. Shortly after, the came up, and
commenced firing on the Othello. The privateer
had difcharged feveral vollies of mufketry, a ball
from one of which paired through the hat of Captain
G.'s Mate, when Captain G. fent off a boat to en-
quire into the caufe of the affault. The Captain of
the privateer commanded Captain G. and his officers
to repair with his papers on board his veirel. The
Comman:er of the privateer Paid he would make a
prize of the Othello, as coming from an Englifh
port, and 4,f the cargo, being Britifh manufadure.
—He acknowledged his intercourfe with the French
frigate, by flaring, that he had read the Papers
which had been received by her Commander from
Captain Glr.ver ; after which, being anted what had
been hi. bolin.efs a!nogfide the Patriot ? he anfweted,
that he had an iron made for his rudder by her
blackinrith. The Ci.nrmander of the privateer, it
appears, had offered a pilot-boat too dollars, to take
him, with the Othello, out of the Capes, clear of
the Br itifh fquadron. The pilot refuted; but we are
not informed whether fr,m this circumfiance it was
the Othello was liberated. A full fiatement is pre-
paring for the public, of this outrage. From the
relation of a refpeffable Gentleman, well acquainted
with the lath above timed, we are inclined to be•
lieve that the privateer was countenanced by the Cap-
tain of the Patriot French frigate. This impreffion,
we acknowledge, is produced by the of ertion of the
privateer's Captain, that the Captain of the Patriot
fupplied him with 14 men, and offered him too.—
At fuch a cries at the prefent, when we are fur:
rounded with enemies, we muff be permitted to pro-
tell againfl the doftrine, that commerce fhould pro-
tea itfelf. If we are not to have a navy capable of
guarding the entrance of our harbours, yet we ter-
taioly fhould maintain a fufficient force to expel from
r iv rivers fuch a contemptible robber as cannot carry
nine pounders."

We have received New York Papers to the tit of
September. The apprehenfion of the yellow fever
appears to have been an unfounded alarm. With
the exception of the iguenza, or Cote eyes, that city
never enjoyed better health.
The effervercence of pallier), excited by the attack
upon the Chefispeak, has fubfided ; but a folid and
fettled determination to refill Tome of our claims,
remains behind.

The Americans feem determined to rifque a rup
ture with England rather than allow their !hips of
war to be fearche4. They are alfo determined to
have force reparation for the attack upon the Chefa-
peaic. There two points being fettled, no interrup
tion w;:l take place in our prefent relations.
The following are eztraa from the Papers re-
ceived :---

THS BRITISH PACRFT AND CAPTAIN BOULDIRSON.
No Britifb packet ought to be permitted to come

np to New York. While they are allowed to tuts,
which it is probable will not be long, they can put
their Mail on (iate on Staaten Bland, and fend it up
to the Poll Officei by our own paffage boats.
The Britilh packets ufed to come to the Eaft ►fiver,
but on account of fome lank (hewn by one (.1 them
to the French packet from Lime, Governor Clinton
ordered the Britifh packet to the North river. It
ought now to be ordered to Staaten Hand, and nei•
ther the Captain nor any of the officers to be allowed
to come to the city.

In the prefent Rate of affairs., a Britifh packet can
he conitJered only as a fpy, to fee what is going on
in our hat hour, and it is well known that there are
Britilh Agents, Britith Emiffaties, and Britifh Mer-
chants enough in New York to give every information
the Captain may require to carry home to his em-
ployers.
The French, it kerns, can commit outrages in the
waters of the United States, as well as Icfs favoured
powers. The Baltimore paper of the 27th of Augo It
furniflies as ftrong an inltance of depredation, as any
which has ever been reproached by the American
Jacobins to the marine of this country. What ag-
gravates the offence is, that the Captain of one of the
French men of war whiFh took filcher in the Ch..tfa-
peak, gave his Aflame to tlit piracy, and, it is to be
prefumed, participated in the (pod.
The trial of Colonel Burr, at Richmond, for high
t,eafon, after much preliminary arrangement, did not
fully commence till Monday, the 17th of lafl Auguti.
The Court continued to fit till the 22d, when the
Conde for the United States revelled indulgence
tili the 24. th, to anfwcr the great variety of arguments
which had been adduced. This was accordingly
granted them ; and the trial mull, of courfr, be con.
tinued to a Rill later period. The points on which
the prifonet's Counfel infilled were, I. That the ac-
cured, oct having been prefint at the time of the overt
461, no evidence could be adduced to prcve his cornet:ion
with that overt a& 2. That an overt an not being
proved, the profecut ion falls to the ground.
Mr. Eaton, the principal witnefs, examined on the
t7th, Rated that he knew nothing of any overt aft
committed by Aaron Burr ; but corcerning his trea-
fonahle expreflions, he knew much, and to there
expreGlons his evidence related. He Rated hirrifelf
to be the perfon employed again( the States of
Barbary; and having been ill ufed by his country,
was fuppofed by 13urr to entertain opinions !wade
to its Government,

The deign of Col. Burr, as Rated by this Gentle
man, was to revolutionize the territory well of Alle.
glianny, and ellahlifh an independant empire there—
New Oilcans to be the capital and he himftlfto be the
chief—organizing a military force on the waters rf the
MilEcEppi, and carrying conqueß to Mexico. This
revolution, Mr. Eaton Rates Mr. Butr to have con-
tidered as a matter t f right inherent in the pe-ple,
and conflitutional—a revolution, a hich would rather
he advantageous than detrimental to the United
States, a revolution which mull eventually take place.
Mr. Eaton was crofs•examined by Col. Burr; and
fymptoms of great warmth appear to have been ex•
hibited in Court by both panic., for which the witters
apologifed. The only overt aft to which the evidence
had g-ne on the 22d, was building boats ems the Mi..:
the relevancy of this was difputed by tl.e prifonet's
Counfel ; and their arguments were to be replied to
by the National Counirl, on the 24th, on which day
the trial was to he returned.

feif as a Negro Driver on a fugar eaate at Porto Rico.
The Captain of an American merchant veffel has

Advice have been received, that Sir ARThUR

has had hyena interviews with the Turkilli Mini Iler s.
Report lays, he has been received in a very friendly
manner, and (hong hopes are entertained that a good

We have been favoured with the following letter,
which we inlet t in the hopes of its conveying fatisfac-
tory intelligence to the friends of the feveral Gen-
tlemen, who were prifoners in South America, that
are named in it :

" Colonia del Sacramento, Rio de la Plata, June 2J.

Buenos Ayres.

" As lam not acquaintei w*.th the different addreffes of the
Gentlemen of your corps, who are prifoners in this country, might

They were at that time quartered along with the officers of the
7111 regiment, at the large farm boufsii n the neighbourhood, with
permiffion to keep borfes. and vifit each other whenever they
