IMPoRTANT NEws.-The city is in small
tumult ut the news brought this morning by the
Richard, Odiorne, in short passage from
Liverpool, and which is nothing less than verbal
Intelligence Of a Declaration NJ Var on the part
of France ayGihst the United States. On subject
so important, we have spared no pains, to Obtain
the most direct information, and have at length
had personal interview with Capt. Odiorne
himself The following is the sum and substance
ithis interesting communication -
That being 1T Liverpool on tie 10Th Sf Sept
and waiting fora wind, he learned that the A.
merican Consul ut that place, Mr.. Nfaury, had
offered :, Marbiehcad schooner, the sum Of Eish-
teen Hundred Dollars to convey certain dispatch
cs to Washington within given time, b:it the
offer was declined. Application was then made
10 Capt. Odiornc, ard lie agreed, on the pro-
misc OF hand some doccur, to be on in hours,
whether the wind favored or not. Accordingly, he
set sail within the time, with the wind dead a.
head, tItt within :. few hours afterwards as he
WAS beating out ofthe river, the American Con
sui chartered and sent Of boat with young
gentlemen, his clerk n inform him verbally, that
special messenger had that moment arrived
& om London, with the important news thai
Jraree had Gsclacd TV GFci1st the Jiritpd STATES,
ard advised hin 10 drop anchor & insure against
= war risk. CAPTAIN Odiornc wrote him for an
swcr that he thanked him for his information {,
advice, but declined to accept the latter, and
should make tie best of his way home.
CAPTAIN Odiarne informs us, that unsatis
f,ctorv to the English was the convention with
