AND LEOPARD,

We have with much pleasure perused the message
of the President to Congress, which follows, an-
nouncing the adjustment (too long delayed) of the
attack at the British frigate LEOPARD on the United
States' frigate Chesapeak. Whilst we offer to our
Readers our congratulations on the adjustment of
this one point, the stumbling block in the way of
all negociations on miner topics, we may be
permitted to express other subjects preceding the
express in Council. We express our hopes, we say,
but faint indeed are they when we look at the obsti-
nate perseverance of the British Cabinet in their sys-
tem of usurpation of maritime rights, generally known
under the name of Orders in Council, the injustice
and illegality of which are so clearly demonstra-
ted in the correspondence lately published, and
the effects of which we, at present, so severely
feel. To the St nate from the Representatives of the
State to the LSenate,and'House of Representatives of
the United States, I communicate to Congress co-
pies of a Correspondence between the Envoy Extra-
ordinary and Minister Plenipotentiary of Great Bri-
tain, and the Secretary of States, relatilie to the ag-
gression committed by a British ship of war on the
United States frigate Chesapeake, by which it will
' be seen that that subject of difference between the
two countries is terminated by an offer of
-Repara-
tion, which has besa acceded to.

ginia, having sailed on the 16th November, and trans-

They contain the following document, which hadbeen
received in the United States by the Mary Anne :
