Letters received this morning from Barbadoes to
the middle of January, state, that the Tartar, from
this country, had arrived safe at Orinoko with Troops.
It will be recollected, that four vessels Lately sailed
from the River with Troops, and the Tartar is the
first that has arrived.

It will be seen by an Official Document relative to the
payment of the last One Ilundred Millions of the
French Indemnity, given above, that, for the purpose ot
reducing the quantity of French mutes in the market,
those made over to the Allies, instead of being, as
hitherto, negotiable for the purpose of realizing the
principal which they represent, are, in consequence
of the new regulation, to be held fast in deposit by
the Allied Commissiquers until the .sth of June, 1820.
The principal, amounting to 100,000,000 of francs,'
is then to be made good, by bons of the Royal Trea-'
sury of France, bearing an interest of 5 per cent.;
but even then not negociahlc in the money market,
ezcept in the propmtion of one-third, commencing
on the Ist of December following. This bargain
gives France no tritiMg hold over the politics of the ,
rest of Europe, and may be looked upon as in all re-
spects highly creditable to the shrewdness of Iter
finance, as well as to her diplomatic zeal and impor-
tunity. But it is not easy to discover what could
have induced the other Governments to reduce to

perfect inactivity for almost 18 mouths, a mass of
transferable paper, which would otherwise have
been applicable to their own wants. Who can tell
what may happen before June 1820?

Boston Papers to the 21th, and New York to the
23d ult. arrived this morning. They contain a Report
from the Committee on Military Affairs presented to
the House of Representatives, respecting the conduct
of General JACKSON in the murder of our countrymen
AnntrrunoT and ASIBRISTER. We have not room to
give the Report at length to-day ; but it will be grati-
fying to our readers to be apprised, that it reprobates
in the sharpest terms the sanguinary proceedings of
General JACKSON against these unfortunate Gentle;
'men ; pronounces the assumption of power on this
occasion, by the General and his Court Martial, tot
have been wholly unauthorized by any law, usage,

or existing exigency; and declares, that the Com-
mittee have sought in vain " for a shadotv of awes-
lily for the death of the ptisoners arraigned before
the Court." The Report, together with a Protest by
(me of the Members of the Court, who differed from
hit Coliessgues, was ordered to be referred to a Com.
