place was called by the Mayor on Sa-
surday last, to take into consideration
measures for the relief of the distressed
Seamen now in this place.. A number
OF citizens attended, but the meeting
was not considered as sufficiently hume
rous to proceed to business; and ano
thcr we understand WILDE called. E.
very person is satisfied of the necessity,
and all are willing to adopt some mea-
sure tor the temporary relief of these
unfortunate men, but all are sensible
that 1t is impossible for the inhabitants
OF this place to make provision for their
permanent support. The measure which
appeared to us 10 be the one which had
the most advocates, was that which we
believe will De adopted. 1t is proposed
to raise fund for their immediate sup
port, to charter a vessel, and having
furnished her with provisions, to send
all the seamen who are without employ
ment, to Washington, where they can
apply tor support to those who have the
means OF attordlng relief, or of giving
them employment.
While the distressed citizens of Nor

understood that upwards of one hundred

made.
We were never more astonished.
than when we understood that the 90 |
7ernment had ordered these men to be
discharged, at time when it must |
have been known that they would be |
eft without the means of subsistence.
10 enlarge upon the cruelty of such a |
measure, would be to insult every feel |
ing and generous heart-But we must |
remark, that this measure proceeds
from men, who, if you would believe
them, are ready to expend the last dol |
lar, and to shed the last drop of blood |
in support of their " injured seafaring !

Yesterday arrived in this port the fast
s'a'tlng ship Eliza, capt. Skiddy, from
Bordeaux, and sc days from the Cordo-
van. She left Bordeaux on the 18th
ult. and brings Paris papers to the 10th.

10y turning to our marine list, our
readers will find the names of about 20
American gentlemen, who left France
IN consequence of an apprehension of
their being seized by order of the French
government as the opinion there was.
that there would be an immediate war
between the United States and France.
AL the American vessels in France.
that had been boarded by French CRUZ
zers, were under seizure, and the OPT
mon was, that the property would remain
IN the custody of the government till it
was known whether we adjusted our
differences with England, in which case
1t would be Immediately condemned
One American vessel, on her PASSAGE
from Amsterdam, had been sent into
France, though in ballast, and seized.
Mr.. Mansfield, one of the passengers
IN the Eliza, is the bearer of dispatches
from Mr.. Armstrong, our minister at
Paris.
Application was made through the
minister of marine to the emperor, re-
sPecting the construction which was to
be put on the Imperial decree of the
18th December, which rendered all YES
sells liable to condemnation that had on
their passage been visited by British
cruizers,and certain questions proposed

ter from the minister of marine DEGREES.
to the applicants, and was to this effect:
" That the decree of his majesty was
Liable to no construction different from
Its letter; that no one had a right to apply
any other construction that the decree
was plain and simple, and must be Sc
verely, strictly and literally executed up
on all objects which it embraced that

WASHINGTON CITY, March %.

w ASHINCTON CITY, March %.
Mr.. Rose on Monday took leave of
the President, and yesterday left this
city tor Alexandria, whence he proceeds
to Norfolk, where he means to take i'm
mediate passage for England in the
Statira.
From, the National h1teMgencer.
We understand that the negotiations
between our government and M. Rose
were, on Friday last, brought to close
by hcrcccipt Of his final note. They arc.
said to have been suspended on the
preliminary requisition made by him,
that the Presidents proclamation should
be rescinded. Mr.. Rose, in the first
instance, appraised our government Of
his authority to offer PREPARATION for the
attack on the Chesapeake, without spe-
Ching what that PREPARATION would be Fl;
but required that previously to its be-,
ing made, the proclamation should be
revoked, Much interlocutory matter
passed; when he was informed that If
ne would state the reparation and assur-
ances he was Empowered to make, and
they should be considered by our GO
vernment as satisfactory, they would be
taken as a pledge of amity, and that the
act OF reparation and revocation of the
proclaim nation should bear cotempora-
neous date. This in his ultimatum he
declined doing.
1t is understood that early in the
week avery comprehensive commune
cation WILDE made to Congress, enbrac-
ing the whole of the negotiations reIa-
tive to the Chesapeake; the whole Of
the correspondence on our general rela-
tons with England and SO much, re-.
speeding the other European powers with
whom we have had differences, as will
give full view of the state of our rela-
tons with them.
