The chairman stated, that he had re-

circular letter, dated the 18th instant; the
same having been read. il was.
RESOLVED unanihnonSiy, that the commit
tee will be at all times happy to receive
any. communications from the American
chamber ofcommerce at Liverpool, which
may have n tendency to promote the COM
nercial intercourse between the British
empire and the United States Of America .
but with the knowledge that the negocia-
tions of great politicalimportancc are pen
ding between the government of this coan-
try and the American states, they arc of
opinion that any interference on their part
at the present moment would he improper !:
and this committee having no reason to be-
heve his majesty's government indisposed
to an amicable accommodation of the pre-
sent differences, see no necessity for asso-
Citations being formed in the different ma
nutactuting towns and seaports. for the
purpose of collecting information as to the
prospects ola good understanding, or other
wise between the two countries. But if it
should at any time appear that the efforts
of this committee can be useful in promo

two governments, they will he ready to do
every thing in their power for the attain

MAKE KNOWN:
The British Envoy Jackson, having de-
clared on the 18th of this month, HOSTILE
ties against Denmark would commence,
and having at the same time asked for
passports for himself and his suite, war
between Denmark and England must con-
sequently be looked upon as begun. We,
therefore, exhort our faithful subjects e.
very where to take up arms, for the pur-
pose of opposing the aulacious projects of
the enemy, and repelling his violent agrees
sion.
We in consequence order by the present,
that all English ships, together with all
English property and merchandise, be c.
very where sequestcred bv the Magistrates
and others, and especially by the custom
house officers, in whatever place or i'm
whatever hands and depots they may be
found
We further command that all English
subjects be arrested without exception. as
enemies of our Kingdom and our country,
until they can be conveyed cut of the coun-
try.
All the Magistrates and ether public OF.
fcers, together with their agents, are
holden to execute this order with the ut
most severity. 1t is moreover understood
that all English vessels and boats which
may approach the coasts, are to be consi-
dere6 and treated as enemies.
We further order that all the suspicious
foreigners he watched with the greatest
attention, and that the magistrates and
their agents do use every possible means
so discover the enemies spies.
In fine we deem it necessary to order
that under severe penalties all correspon-
dence with British subjects be entirely
put g stop TO Immediately after the publi-
cation Of these presents, and that no pay
ment whatever be made to them, or for
thsir account, until further orders.

Mr. Martin is uoW enSa ged in speech
which probably viii occupy the whole day.
We understand Mr. Ifirf is 70 answer him.
Our readers are no doubt greatly fatigu-
ed with reading ,he lengthy accounts ofthe
trial of Aaron Barr, and the very yolumi-
nous testimony of the witnesses. withwhich
so many cg our columns have ocen filed for
so long time. We congratulate them
therefore on the prospect that this tedious
business is now approaching TO close; at
least that, as to the drama exhibited in
Richmond the curtain soon will fall
Whether the Grand Manager will permit
The scene to be shifted TO Kentucky, or not,
rs yet uncertain. Perhaps the BEREAVEMENT
may be the complete escape of al the trai.
tors from punishment, and their returning,
not we presume to the "dull pursuits of
civil life" but to the prosecution of some
other glorious enterprise, with either the
old or new set Of "choice spirits.'
