LiROM THE AMEBIC .%? PAPERS.)
BOSTON, APRIL 20.—From the length of the very
able speech of Mr. Barbour, Chairman of the Com-
mittee who reported the Bill to the Senate " con-
cerning Navigation," it will not probably find a place
in. the pipers, bat the important facts contained in
it should be laid before the Public. .
This distinguished Legislator observed, that the
'lnsidious policy of which we complain, and which
is attended with such unpleasant effects, might be
summed up in a few words :—Great Britain has Ong
her ports in the West Indies and North American
colonies• against the vessels of the United States.—
Not a cock-boat, not an atom of any thing that is
American, does she permit to enter, while she mo-
destly insists to bring any thing that she playa from
those possessions to the United States, and to put.
chase and to exclusively carry the produce end ma-
nufactures of the United States in return. This co.
lonial system is the more intolerable, as it is ex-
closively directed against us, inasmuch as she in-
dulges to the vessels of other nations au Intercourse
withheld from us—a course aggravated by the con-
sideration that she stands alone in this policy, Ass-
dam vessels being admitted into the French, Spanish,
Dutch, Danish, and Swedish colonies. Thiscoorse,
so injurious to our interest, and so offensive to a just
pride, claimed the immediate attention of the Go.
vernmentoind efforts were made to obtain redress
by a treaty, but the President, in his Message, in.
formed Congress, all hope of redress in that way was
desperate, and he called upon the National Legis-
lature to interfere.
'l'he amount of British tonnage employed in this
trade, Mr. Barbour stated as equal to 138,000.
From the 30th of September, 1803, to the 30th or
September, 1801, 69,525 tons of shipping entered'
Jamaica alone, from America; aud, as Jamaica em.
ploys only one-half of the tonnage of all the colonies,
138,000 tons may be presomed to have sailed OM
America to all the West Indies, to man whis , ie.
quires upwards. of 6,000 seamen.
from the tables which Mr. Barbour laid helms she
Semite, it appears that the United States imiseeted
annually 7,500,000 gallons of rum, of which only
1100,000 gallons were 'sported, leaving to be coo.
earned in the United States, say 7,000,000, of which
4,000,000 comes (rot:elks, possessions of Great Bri-

to the Noose of Lords, last night, the Act for stl•
ditiooal appointments to the Queen's Council went
through a Committee, when the LORD CIIANcELLoR
conceded to Earl GaRT'S more constitutional argu-
ments, the propriety of giving to Parliament the ea
mination of the additional Members. We will beg
attention to the important Dsaire of this measare,
which has now, in a manner (rather an odd one),
bees settled.. It will be recollected that some of the
.reasons urged for this alteration were, that it was as
gallery the additional Members required to this coa
elate should reside at. Winasor, to attend to the
Klysn's comfort and person, the great Household
Officers being under the necessity of neglecting this
paramount duty to attend to the performance of their
*BO4 functions in town. It now appears that though
, fiur additional Members have been appointed to this
Council, only one is to reside at Windsor, and that
this costly and enormous establishment is still
to be kept ep, to preserve the comfort of our un-
conscious Sovereign, end the cootenieoce and dig-
nity of this one resident Councillor!! The news

that the country knows and a 6 ors the supporters

By a Mail from Holland we have a contradiction
of the report that Prussia was negociating to excharage
the Grand Micky of Cleves for that of Jaiemberg.
The Dutch Papers contain an account of the giving
up of Chinsura, on the Continent of India, by the
British Authorities to those of the Netherlands.—'
There is not much policy in this transaction upon oar
part. Much vales or importance may not attach to
so remote a station, but the wisdom of admitting
such a commercial rival as the Dutch into the
heart of our Indian territory is very question-
able. But our Ministers will go a gnat length
is make the King of the NevasucAuos a
great Power. By a Decree of the Dutch Corn-
athsioners at Batavia of the 9th of December,
ail the duties imposed hy• previous Decrees are in
future to be levied on the invoice pikes, with an
augmentation or 30 per cent. upon all imports in
Dutch, and 60 per clot. en those in foreiga vessels.

New York Papers to the 25th, and from Boston
to the 26th ult. have reached us. The pushing of the
war against the Indians into the Spanish territory is
very likely to add fresh grounds to the causes of rup-
ture with Spain. The American troops, who bad
crossed the Florida frontier, in pursuit of the hostile
„Indiums, had halted in their match, for the peipose
of erecting a temporary fort to protect their com-
munication. It was expected to be completed on
the 234 ult. Circumstances may perhaps be found,
'to render this temporary means of protection perma-
nent. On the 26th, the American troops were to com-
mence operationsagainst theNlickaseckee tells,. It was
supposed the Indians would take refuge in Pensacola.
The articles which we, have copied from ills American
Papers, relative to the new mermen) eisConttrese to.
~wards our American and West India commerce, will
be found of considerable interest, and contain much
useful information. The speech of Mr. Baesoun,
Chairman of the Committee, who reported the Na-
vigation Act to the Senate, is a document breatbieg
bsueb strong sentiment ; end though it may be that
British trade, or the interests of our Colonies, may
not be injured to the serious. extent, there
was reason to believe it would, and might be,
by this turning our exclusive system against our-
settees; it is certainly a policy very little accordant
with the commercial interests of this country and the

feelings of reciprocal amity, to give grounds for such
angry sensations, and such vindictive measures, inStates
with which we are so intimately connected as those of
North America. The British Colonial System is de.
Blared to be intolerable to America, and we could
like to see it proved that it was of much advantage
.to us. All systems of exclusion and restriction in
trade are hurtful to soma class and nation, and na-
turally generate corresponding measures of hostility,
. and feed the dames of war. 'rbe dependence of our %Vest
India Colonies on the United States for articles of
the first necessity cannot be denied, though a Morn-
ing Papers affects to treat Mr. BARBOUR'S statement
as not founded in fact. And as to the absolute inde-
pendence of the United States upon England, we
think that has already been proved sufficiently to our
cost, and stands not in need of any fresh argument
from the other side of the Atlantic. It is a fact that
the effects of the onaccemmodating policy of oar Go-
vernment often moil open serselves, and that it
has not operated to the disadvantage of America.—
We know it has been the means of aiding her revenue
and diminishing ours; and a positive consequence of
the Acts in question will bete keep up the price of
American produce by Nemesis.; the difficulties io pro.
,coring it, whilst the Ansetfeen merchants, if they
please, can supply it•to the free wide ender all their
disadvariteges, Mach easier and speedier than• the
heavy carriers from Europe.
Paris Papers to the 23d inst. here come to hand.
They . possess no political Interest. The fonerel of
the late Prince of Cotroa was to take place to-day.
In the mean time another death has taken plats in the
Bowman family. The infant daughter of the Duke

.ALGIKItS.

We have received from Algiers the following in-
tereoting end remarkable accounts:—
LETTER PROM ALGIERS, MARCH 5.
" The present Uey, Houssin, is a gond man ; he
was one of the four Ministers, Master of the Horse,
or, as they here call him, Chodgia de Cevallos
and, on the death of the late tyrant, was elected by
the Divan, which bas not been the use for these 90
years, as the six Pitches before My were murdered by
the rebellious soldiery. This election, which took
place in the most peaceful manner, has been attended
with no bloodshed, nor has any one been banished ;
on the/ other band, several iadivideals who .were
banished under Omar Pscha, as disturbers of the
Peace, are recalled, and have obtained important
slices. Time most show whether these persons will
tithe warning • from the lesson they-loove already re-
ceived, or will set on foot new conspiracies.
61 The Ist of March, this year, the day of Aly
Pacha's death, will be ever memorable in thi annals
of Algiers. 'That tyrant had still many ruinous pro.
jests and cruelties in contemplation, which were to
have been shortly carried into effect. Thus there was
found in his pocketbook the following memorandum,
written by himself : -' The daughter of the English
Consul, a very pretty sad sensible girl, 15 years old,
and the sister of the Dutch Consul, who is handsome
and accomplished, shall be carried by force out of
their bosses, compelled to change their religion, sad
to be the ey's mistresses. The daughter of the
Spanish Consul, who is not so handsome, shall be
watched and kept in reserve. The English Consul,
the Spanish Consul, and a Jaw, named liensamon,
who is under English protection, who had been al-
reedy compelled to assume the turban, shall be be-
headed.'
" The day for the execution of this horrid plan
was not yet fixed. The Dey seemed to waver in his
mind, and disposed to wait, till be saw whether the
Consuls would submit to have their bosses (which
according to the treaties are to be considered as
harems) broken into end plendered, or whether they
would make any resistance • in this last use they
were to be cot to pieces. lie saw clearly that such
cruelties would not pass without notice, end said often,
The Christians will probably come end benther.t
me a little, but I shall find means to make my peace.'
64 My was not destitute of talents ; but be was
some time like one raving, or like a famished tiger orl
hyena; at an earlier period of his life, he had been
confined in the mad-house in the city. If he .bad
continued to live, there is every appearance that all
Abe foreign Consols, sad the few other Earopeaes
teddent here, would have been put to death.
"" The plape still curies of between .50 and 60
petsons daily." 11,
66 LETTER PROM ALGIERS, APRIL 9.
66 Since the death of Aly, there has been only one
11esecultion here; it was that of his brother.in-law, an
Arab, of the name of lladgi Mustaphs, and his
'`brother, a youth of 13 years of age ; they were both
tortured for 14 days, in various ways, 'got no sleep,
and Nadel was most severely bastinadoed. Ile re-
ceived, first, 1000 strokes, 'and after that, 4 or 500
dilly. After he had received 4500 in strokes, in this
manner, he was sent home, where he died two days
after, and his brother, who was treated in the same
manner, shortly after. The Turks feared this 'family
very much, and have therefore extirpated it."

Tea FRACAS AT Cassasay.—The following for.
Cher particulars are given of the affray which took
place at Cembray between the English and French
soldiers : We have to regret being obliged to give
the detail of an affray which took place last Sunday
at Cambrey, between some French soldiers from
Douai, on their march towards the South, and some,
soldiers of the Grenadier and Coldstream Guards,
which might have terminated in the most fatal manner,
had it not been for the prompt presence of all the Eng-
lish officers, and the great moderation and proper sub.
ordination of their meet. It has not been correctly
ascertained how this affray commenced, but it is sup-
posed that it was cached by some evil-disposed
inhabitants of the town. The French soldiers had
conducted themselves estrentety well till about seven
o'clock in the evening, when parties of them were seen
walking about linked arm.in.arm, as if wishing to in.
suit every English soldier they met; two of these par•
ties met, one coming out of a public.bouse,where there
seems to have been some disturbance. A corporal
of the Coldstream, who had been accompanying the
former on the most friendly terms, attempting to
pacify them, was instantly knocked down, and rii.
peatedly cut at with their swords while on the groedd.
Several English soldiers in their way to their bar-
racks, seeing the Corporal in this situation, came tol
his rescue, when a scuffle ensued, and the Frisch
soldiers seeing numbers collected, took to theiriteels
and ran away. The inhabitants of the town who'
were collected in great numbers in the streets, and
particularly in the Grande Place, now took part la-
the disturbance, and presuming on our extreme me.
deration, and the wonted Impunity with which their.
misbehaviour is treated, insulted the English soldiers
in the most outrageous manner. Several of the
French soldiers ;ad inhabitants were, however, taken
prisoners by the Naha gaud, and the disturbance
ceased."
