FROM THE NATIONAL INTELLIGENCEIt OF N,,y
OUR RELATIONS WITH RUWA.—Mr. Weir •
of the United States at Riga, artiyed at ,!,
Government on Sunday last, with diii;aich,
Mr. Harris, Charge d'Affaires of the
at the Court of Russia. Ul the contents of M.
ris's dispatches, we do not pretend to any pi, .
knowledge. It is understood generally, 11,,,„„;
that the arrest and confinement of Mr. Kuitoii,
Russian Consul-General at Philadelphia, by a „..,
rant from a Magistrate of that city, for an'impuv•i
criminal offence, had, under the influence of Ur
Daschkoff's representations, created some sattslactier;
in the Imperial Government, which manifested itkii
in the temporary prohibition of Mr. Harris from e.
wilding the Russian Court, and in the orders
it is already understood have terminated Mr. bra-44.
koff's mission in this country.
These steps were taken, we learn, with esidesi
reluctance, on the part of the Emperor, and utie
an impression that it had been in the power u. ;k:s
Government to prevent the arrest, in omthilg t, do
which there had been a want of tl:at r,?s;ec•!ostlf
due to his character and station. Ti ,e int:,tte,
which he adopted were int,snded t evince ins
bility to an imagined wrung, and to give v. I tTly,,t.
tunity, in case of asLertatnecl neglect on otu paii.
for due reparation to be made kr it, or for the ex.
planation; which the case adm.tted, if it sheaf ap.
pear, as the fact was, that there i:a‘f 'nen innie sets.
It is understood that as soon as our Govei;,innt
became acquainted with the effect which had been pro-
duced at St. Petersburgh by the repiesentatio..s of NT,
Daschkoff, Mr. Coles, late Secretary of the Pkemdem,
was sent in the Prometheus, with &mom 1,,
Mr. Harris, embracing such a view of tue AA,
transaction as it actually occurred, and with suf.:.
equivocal assurances of the friendly disposition. 3;
our Government towards Russia, .if there was every
reason to believe would be entirely satisfactory.
It is with pleasure we now state, that host the
temper manifested at the time Mr. Wier lett St. Pe-
tersburgh, by the Imperial Government towards the
United States, there is every reason to believe that
this affair will be amicably adjusted, and that at
out any delay.
