A letter from Bermuda states, that the Governor
had prohibited the admission of any American shiPs

pay the port charges, and then were ordered imp•
ately to take, their departure.

A Heligoland bag reached town yesterday, with let- •

isle of New Werk ; the flat and sandy surface of

Cuxhaven, have taken *possession of this little terri-
tory ; and if the Harntfurgh letters have been inter-
cepted, it is probably tote attributed to that cause.
