SATORIMAT, lireilnima 19, 1014.

The Fingal cartel, which our American '
yesterday stated had been waiting of New-York for
dispatches for some time, arrived on Thursday last
off Torbay, where she landed passengers—among
whom were Col. BARCLAY,•Iat• Br4ish Consul and
Agent for Prisoners, and Mr. Bairpw,LemAw, bearer
of dispatches from the Russian Meister. ; she then
departed for Havre de Grace, having on board a-
Messenger with dispatches for the American Commis-'
stoners at Ghent. The Fingal left New York on*
With of October, and has brought us New York Pi.;
pens to the 22d, which are exceedingly important.—
Tile report of the proceedings of Congress is to the
18th Oct. The subjects submitted to the considera-
tion of
,tom Representatives are of commanding in-
terest, and.thow that the American people are aware
that Node Akira are come to a crisis,—that the
tights, the honour, the independence of their
country is in danger. The Treasury Report, the
substance of which we have given in our extracts,
Las been laid before Congress by the new Secretary,
who appears to discharge his duties with promptness
and ability. His measures for increasing the revenue,
and restoring public confidence and credit, seem well
calculated to have that effect, and to have obtained
for him the approbation and respect of all parties,.
who universally concur in the necessity for exertiOn.,
Among therother 'documents submitted tWthe Senate
eed :House of Representatives, are Copies of tk:
instructions to the Plenipotentiaries of the United
States, charged with aegociating a Peace with Great
Britain at Ghent. These are contained in letters'
from Messrs. MOWItOII, ADAMS, BAYARD, CLAY,
and ti eim!» Sitide 'eta Ministers have not been so

and progress of these negociatiens, or of the real
