The French continue to take every American eer-

and treat the paffengers and men with the °molt fc-
verity, threatening even to efleem all fuch as pirates.
Atm 25.—A Gentleman who art ived in the Ad-

gaaes—if you return, come alone—if you tarry, ex-

derßand, M. Jteows has determined to refide in the
United States with his Lady.
A floop arrived a few days ago at Philadelphia,
from St. Bartholomew's, which (poke on her p&p
a fleet of veffels from Jamaica, bound to France, with
the wreck of the French army of St. Domingo.—
(This probably alludes to the French troops that ca-
pitulated under Rocriam *tau. )
We have information from the heft anthority, that

the Penfylvanians) in the courfe of a few days. They
alto declare that they will have the Governor's hfe

A Gentleman at Wythe Court Houle, in Virginia,
in a letter to his friend, in America' dated July to,

New Vote, Aua. a3.—The repeated aggrcffions
on out commerce are continued in the ufual manner
by the Britifb chips of war at the Hook. The La-
mama is particularly active in this bufinrfs. Our
port may be Paid to be in a Rate of actual blockade,
as fiercely a fingle veffel is permitted to pats in or
out witist,ut lofing many of her hands. The LEAN-
Vim and CAMBRIAN Rand off and on aU night, and
take their Ration in the month of the harbour every'
morning, for the purpofe of oyes hauling every veffel
bound us or out. The Rebecca, of this port, was
fired at yetierday morning, brought to by the CAM.
PRIAM, and fix of her men impreffed. The flip
Little Cornelia, Capt. Haaatsmo, arrived here on
Monday lali from France. This veffel was captured
of the Hook Come time fence by the LEANDER, and
fent for Halifax ; but Captain HARRISON, with the
Mate and Cook, who were left on board, boldly re-
took the (hip, and on the Sth hill. eqrried her into
Nevi. London. There were eleven Engliffimen on
toard. including two Officers. The means used in
Betaking the Ship ware privately to fecure the fire-
arms and cutlatfes of the captors, and drive them
below, whicb waseffeited without injuring any pee-
ffon on board.

The AUCKLAND Packet, which failed from Fal-
mouth on the ,sth of &octal:sr, is arrived at Liilyn.

Some letters were yeflerday received in the pity
from Holland, which (peak of an infurreelion havi:g
broken out, but Co darkly, that we are rr..t able to
give any particulars. It is however worthy of re-
mark, that a report of a fimilar nature was brought
by feveral yetis arrived in the River. The fame
accounts slate, that the new Emperor of the French
had experienced fume infults at Mentz, which had
induced him to Morten his flay at that place.
We underfland, from authority upon which we
can place great reliance, that a material change is
about to take place in the connitution of the Batavian
Republic, and that this very day has, moll probably,
been appointed for effeaing it. We fome time fine;
fuggelled that fome important alteration in the form
of that Government was in agitation ; but we did
not think that the Emperor of the French would
have been fo precipitate ; or that, having fo much
bulinefs on his hands, he could And time to at-
tend to fuch minor concerns. However, as his
"1 genial embraces all things, the conftitution of that
country is to be re-caft, we believe, for the fourth
time within a few years, and on this day we are
informed the new modifications were to be declared.
As a prelude to this, an embargo was hourly ex
pthed to be laid on in the ports of Holland. We el-
co learn, that fome new and important regulations,
relative to our commercial intereourfe with that
country, will be eftablifhed at the fame time. We are
confidently allured, that no neutral valets bonnd from
England, and freighted with Britifh snanufaitureeor
produce, will be permitted to enter the ports of Hol-
land. There are feveral Tails now in the 'River,
which have taken in freight of this dekription, that
will either be obliged to unload, pr take their cargoes
to other markets. _ _ _

The Captain of a vefel which arrived in the river
from Holland yefterday afternoon, reports that he
was obliged to fet fail on Wednefday la% without
lots of time, as an embargo was hourly expelled to
be laid on in the ports of Holland. He thinks that
the troops Were embarking for the expedition. He
alfo Rates, that another refit, which was taking in
freight, had orders to get the cargo in at night, and
to proceed with all poffible difpatch.

est.or as his Ambaffedor Extraordinary and Mini-
(ler Plenipotentiary to Berlin, to open a very impor.
tent negociation with that Court. GUSTAVUS deli-
vered to his Ambalfedor a letter in • his own hand
writing, addrefred to the King cf Proffitt. In this let-
tet lie is f.id to make an appeal to' the feelings of the
Prufilan Monarch. with ref feat to the infults lately
committed upon his dignity by the opßart Corfican,

and demands, in the event of hailities taking place

rep"lted that the Swed,fh Ambalt,dor has hot yet
been able to obtain admittance to his Pruffian Ma-
