ANOTHER LETTER, SAME DATE.

" The Embargo Bill has unquestionably passed,
and is expected to reach here to-morrow. Such has
been the exertions to get off neutrals, that vessels
have been taking in both by day and by night. We
understand the form of the Embargo Bill is now here ;
the features of it are very severe : no neutrals that
are loaded and cleared out will be permitted to de-
part after the Collector receives official notice of the
Act. Consignees or Masters of neutral vessels must
give bond to unload in ten days, or be liable to sei-
zure of both vessel and cargo—neutrals in ballast
will have liberty to depart—coasters must give heavy
bonds, and only depart with a special licence."

Dispatches were received this morning at the Ad-
miralty, from Admiral Sir SAMUEL Hoon, Corn-

Just as this Paper was putting to Press, a report
reached us that Vrench Papers a day or two later
than the last arrival are in Town, but that they con-
tain nothing interesting. We have not been able to
ascertain the correctness of the rumour.

The Thames, yesterday, between Blackfriars and '
London bridges, co:itinued to present the novel scene
of persons moving on the ice in all directions, and ill
gteatly increases numbers. The ice, however, from
its roughness and inequalities, is totally unfit for
amusement, though we observed several booths
erected upon it for the sale of small wares: but the
publicans and spirit dealers were most in the receipt
of custom. The whole of the River opposite Oueen-
hithe was completely frozen over ; and in some parts
the ice was several feet thick, while in others it was
dangerous to venture upon ; notwithstanding which,
crowds of foot p issengers crossed backwards and for-
Wards throughotg the whole of the day. We did
not hear of any lives being lost ; but many, who ven-
tured too far towards Blackfriars bridge, were par-
tially immersed in the water by the ice giving way.
Two coopers were with difficulty saved.
The navigation of the Thames, below bridge, is
now partially open again. On Sunday the smacks,
and other coasters, began their usual trips, and it is
hoped will experience no further interruption.
One of the Chelsea stages was yesterday overturned
in Cheapside ; but fortunately all the passengers es-
