made to the President of the u. S. bv tbe
governor of Virginia, in which the latter
states that he had convened the execu-

outrages committed by the British in the
nature of an invasion, had ordered out tie
militia, who would he immediately staff
oned at the points most exposed to outrage
and insult, with instructions to repel then.

T1EE SOLDIERS HARP

Charles the XIIth, in his descent on Copen-
hagen, near century since, landed at the.
same SPOT waere, the British lately debarkcd
their troops. Charles himself, eager to reach
the shore, leaPel into the sea, sword in hand,
where the water rose abore his middle. His
example was followed by all his officers aad
soldiers who quickly put to flight the troops
that attempted. to oppose the debarkatlon -
Charles who had never before been present at
a general discharge ofmusquets loaded with
Sail, asked British officer who stood near him
what occasioned that whistling which he heard?
Being informed that it was the sound of the
bullets, the King exclaimed" This shall
henceforth be my music s
F.aTE or PORTUGAL.
The detention Of the Portuguese vessels by
Bonaparte, seems orainous Of much danger to
the future Independent existence of,that natl
on. It cannot with justice, be regarded as a
measure of precaution, calculated to insure
compliance with the demand ofthe French go
-vernment to- exclude British commerce from
the Tagus The enormous power OF one par
ty. when eotitrasted with einnbecility of the
other, leaves no room to doubt of Immediate
and ready compliance with such q demand. -
We can only therefore suppose the measure
to intimate, that Portugal comes within tho IL
nlits ef those vast plans of territorial changes
entertained by our enemy. Plans which, SO
far from being impeded by the hostility OF o.
Their powers, have hitherto been most rapi ally
carried into effect during a state OF warfare. ss
