From tie Cenfinei ef Lsa Sais day. ]

Late Aeeount5 from Europe.-By arri-
walls at this port from Europe, we have re-
ceived our regular files of London papers
to the middle of February, nearly ieventy
days later than had before reached us
Some extracts may be found under the
appropriate head.
though expectations has 70 long been
on the rack for the developement of the
mighty dehgns which have for months
aoltated all France, and its fubje1 allies,
--theie accounts, late as they are, do nor
afford any index which points to their
immediate end and aim. A grave-like
iecrecy envelopes the projects of Bona
parte ; and though every acre of the re-
public was alive with the matters of war,
and every livre of revenue appropriated
to increaie them; at the lateit dates it
was as difficult TO calculate on the hour of
embarkation and onfet, as it was fix
months ago. The preparations fer often
live war IN every point and particular, had
greatly increaied in all parts Of the French
and Batayian republics, in the vicinity of
the Bri!ilh iiles.-We could FIJI columns
with details; but as they are of the nature
OF thoie we have 70 recently laid before
our readers, We ihall not repeat them.-
We ihall only add, that large body of
the veteran troops of the French Italian
army, under Gen. Pine, had croiIed the
Alps, and joined the main body of the
army OF invation, in the welt OF France -
that the army under Angereau, of 10000
men, which had long been fa,ioned at
Bayonne, and whole deltination had been
iuppoted to be Portugal, had broken up
their environments, and marched into the
vicinity of Brett ;-that large body of
the army of Hanover had proceeded to the
banks of!he Scheldt ;-and that the places
OF thefe troops had been fupplied by con-
icripts and recruits THAT all the ieamen
in the republics, had been put in requiG.
ton; and fkulkers fearched after with
unceaAng aflduiry ;-that the Brett fleet
had been reinforced with new, and other
Jenks' Portland gazette. [volume] (Portland, Me.) 1803-1805, 1804-03-17

It was at this period that England de-
clared war--a circumstance to which the
fuccels of this negotiation mua be wholly
imputed. France was now willing to fell
what the could nor retain the treaty was
fgned, and Louifiana, for a fixed fun,
coded to America.
The treaty was iigned, but whether
Tome change of circumstances has cauied
the Court of France to repent of their
bargain, or that more money is wanted
(the mott probable conjecture the ceilion
has moi been as yet executed. Under the
pretexr that France has not as yet perfor-
med the treaty of Idelfonfo with regard
TO the King of Etruria, the Court of Mad
rid has withheld the transfer of Louiliana.
This latter Court is 70 well known to be
wholly moved by that of France, and to
have 70 little fpirit, and lels independence,
that the Americans very jufly conlider
them as the fame, and imputc the delay
TO the French, acting through the organ
Of the Spaniarts.
Such is the nature of this affair. We
have only to add, that America is at pre-
TENT divided into two parties, ai.noit equal
ly powerful, the friends of England and
advocates for methods of vigour, and
'temPoliiing3 COMPUTING Administration.
Indeed, the politics of the acting Pref
dent, MIR. Jeferfon, feem formed more
upon lylfem of hatred 70 England than
with view to the intcrefs of his own
country. This has naturally thrown him
into the hands of France, of whom, il will
not be his fault, if he does not make Ame-
RIGA the unconditional dupe. The ap-
preheniion of our Government is very
natural-that France Would fcarcely con-
ient to bring whole continent to the
hammer, and that having loft St. Domingo,
lhe would add to it the lois of Louliana,
and thus efettually defroy her whole
colonial empire. We can fcarcely think
70 badly of the prudence of Buonapafte
There is more rcafon to imagine that he
has trumped up fraudulent conveyance
of Louisiana to the Americans, and that
deeds of reititution are prepared on their
fide, to re-convey the whole when France
can relume it with fecurity.

LOUISIANA

LOUISIANA.
TIE following article rcipe citing the Louifiana Affair." +.
from LonAn paper of January ,s-wc think cannot
fail of interefng many Of our resders.1
The events of the week have produced
nothing Of general importance in EUROPE.
an politics, but are not equally barren
with regard to thole Of more diltant
quarter.
In the United States of America the
public mind has been much agitated with
the delay of the court of Madrid to COM
plete the transfer Of its fettIements on the
River MiiliGppi.-Ihe affair has hitherto
been 70 imperfedly explained, that detail
ed itatement OF it may not be unaccepta-
bic to the public.
The River Mifiippi forms almoa the
whole OF the weite-n boundary of the u
,nited States, and receives into its waters
nayigable rivers from every part of the
Union. 1t is the only outlet through
which the produceof the back ltates, thofe
OF Kentucky aud Ohio, and even of a very
comfortable part of Pennfylvania, can
reach tie ocean, and thus be carried either
TO a foreign, or even TO home market.
On the banks Of this river the province
OF Louiliana is ftlateI, and the court of
Madrid was thus enabled at its will to in.
tercept the communication of the back
ieitlers, and wholly to prevent the trani-
port of the Indian produce, from the 9TH
er iide of the river.
From the f}rengrh of the current, no
yehels Of any comfortable burthen could
aicend the Miiiifppi--the weltern'fettlers
were, therefore, compelled to carry their
produce down the river in boats, and
thence put on board the fhips prepared for
the purpoie. A place of depolit was thus
required-a place which fea-veGels might
and where the landing of the
boats might be dcpoGted until received
on board the lhips. The court of Madrid
granted the port of New-Orleans for the
purpole. The Americans continued for
fome years TO enjoy the unmolelted uf:
of this benefit, and, as they wanted no.
thing more, we're latisfied. Within few
months the imprudence of the Spanilh
lntendant recalled this grant of the port as
a place OF free depoht; but, littening to
the remonaranees of the Americans, the
court of Madrid did not enforce the proc
lamation, Of its Lieutenant. In other
words, Spain had been compelled thro'
this demand, and the certain violence of
the Americans, which mutt have been
the coniequence, to furniih the republic
OF France with pretext of war with A
merica fleet and an army were already
prepared in France for this expedition.
The lituation of France changed, and, as
hoitility with America was no longer its
interef, the court of Madrid was comman-
ded to reitore things to their former fate.
From this period, however, the Con-
greiS took the alarm, and, perceiving
that the interels of 70 great part of the
Union were within the reach of the ca
price or oppoiite intereits of the courts of
France and Madrid, or oil Jingle officer,
upon the means of procuring
Louiiiana to itielf. a fun was according
!y granted for its pu,chaie, and the ac-
rerions lent to Paris and Madrid
to negotiate it.

This manicure was correctly performed.

approached him nearer. The Royal George
bore the brunt of the action, and got as near
the enemy as he would permit him; the
Canges and Earl Camden opened their FIRE
as soon as their guns could have effect, but
