FROM LORD HowIcK's SPEECH,
TO TIE Electors of Northumberland.

4!OTIDH'9OeTg07H.
" Gentlemen, the late administration haze
been accuied OF inattention 10 the ihippinS -
tereh of the country, Ct with now to be und r..
ftood as addreiling myfef moro particularly 10
the freeholders from Newcaf.le and Shelds), I
ihoud be very happy if any gentleman would
come forward and tate in what manner the
ihipp!ng intereit has been neglected. | believe
the American Iutercourle bin has given rife to
complaints. Now it muit be efficiently known
that our Weit-Indian Hands are in great mea.
iure dependent upon America, for the articles
OF lumber and provfions. That previouAy to
the paiiing OF this bill, the governors Of the &c
lands, on their own reiponiibiiity, conRantIy
kept up an intercourse with America, TO obtain
iuch fuppeS as were neceGary and, in return,
permitted the Americans To purehaie and take
away articles produced in the Hands. Bills of
indemnity to the governors on account of this
Illicit bat necefary traffic, were every wear ap-
piled for and pafled in Parliament. | fubmit,
then, was II not better TO legalize at once this
iDtercourie with America, and veft general
power in the privy council for its regulation,
than trut to the dfcretion of the We(t-Endia
governors Individually, for procuring fuch fnp-
plies as the Hands might be in want of? Great
complaints have alto been excited againft us on
account of the treaty we lately negotiated with
America, although it would furely have be en
'''e eHouGh 10 compialn, when the terms OF
that treaty came before the public. The Ame-
rcans have not, however, thought that the ad-
vantages were entirely in their favour, for it is
probable the treaty will not be ratified by the
government. Gentlemen, the great aud unfor-
tunate changes which have been effected in the
north of Europe, Cannot but have operated ic-
verely upon your intereAs, and it has been i'm.
polibe o afford you any adequate relief. Re-
ftritlions were impofed upon neutrals, which
produced the frongeh remonftrances from the
governments of their REFLECTIVE countries. One
of my lat aGs while in Office, was to write long
letter TO Denmark, in vindcatinn of our nea-
iureS in reipe6t 20 neu,rals, and win to God
could lay that letter before you, to convince
you how utterly unfounded have been your
complaints, that his raiefy's late miniHers
were ininicai to the !hipping intereas of the
empire.

The capture of Dantzc which may now be
looked upon as certain, is the alt operation,

In Table Bay, for the better fupply of water,

FROM FRANCE.

BY the arrival of the trIg BeIiile at Salem,
the Editors of the (Bofon) Palladium, received
from refpe6ed friend at that place, papers to
the nh of December incufye. They contain
the decree of Bonaparte, declaring The Brifil,
NandS in a fate ejbiOekade and that all com.
meree in Brifjb merchandise is Prohibited.
Some explanations refPe6tiug this decree, may
perhaps be afked by our MInifter at Paris. The
next arrival hom Great Britain will probably
brug us an account of fome important mea-
iure adopted by the Brit1l by way of retaliati-
on.
The RufIians have advanced as FAR as War
faw, but i'll what force is not ftated.
An armiitice between Pru1ia aud France has
been negotiated /; but we have no account of its
ratification or rupture, notwithstanding our in
telligence from Berlin is of a later date than the
time fixed fori its ratification. Hoftilites appear
to continue. The French papers contain the
particulars ofthe laft negotiation between Great
Britain aud France. They fay it proceeded ia

defile already in pohtlIion of the enemy. l
forced it indeed but accordr to the belt in
telligcnce, found it ufelefs TO continue my
march, becaufe al! my cavalry, without forage,
had been quite exhaulted for fome days paf,
and by break of day had to expect an engage
ment with the enemy, the unhappy ilue of
which was to be feared. / Immediately, there
fore, filed to the left, and arrived during the
night at Schonnermark. l had given orders
that at two in the morning, itrong reGonnOi-
tering party ihould advance towards the enc
my: This party returned without bringing me
any intelligence. In order not to enter place
where there might be any pofiibility of having
my retreat cnt off, l puff,ed forward another
patrole to Prentzlau, which brought intelii-
eence that they had feen no enemy in that quar-
ter, and that no patrole of the enemy had APP
peared in PrentZlau. proceeded therefore on
my march TO Prentzlau, where / hoped to find
bread and forage. All begged for bread and
forage. The necefIity indeed was very great.
Scarcely had reached the heights of Prentz-
lau when the enemy fhewed himfef on my right
wing. An action was una.. liable. The fu-
perior force of the enemy, and their artillery,
forced me to retreat through Prentzlau. The
hope of procuring bread and forage here was
wholly frnfrated by the active purfuit of the
| enemy. The corps of the enemy hung on my
right wing, which, being far hyperion in artillery
acd cavalry, were or rne point of renewing the
attack on my front. Several of the battalions
were for the mott part without proviGons, my
whole flying artillery was LOFT, and had, ac-
cording to the report of Col. Hufer for the
whole of CIR remaining cannon, only five
rounds of ihot. From Stettin I was till feven
miles diftant, and even the Ieaft fhadow or
hope to obtain any fort of proviGons ON this
march was completely anuhilated. Already
cut off from all communication with the troops
remaining at Lychen, and from Gen. Butcher !;
without cavalry that were in condition to
fight, bccaufe, through the fatigue and weari-
nefs of their horfes, they had already loft all
confidence in themfeves; without any kind of
provihons, but particularly without victuals !;

crihcing the lives of thofe men who fill remain

to the fcrvice of your Majefty, have fubmitted
| to the hard neceility of concluding capitula-
ton with the enemy. / can juftify my conduct
during the whole of this campaign before the
eyes of the world and of poterity, before the
eyes of your Majefy and my own confidence,
from which feel not the leaf reproach.
