LATE AND IMPORTANT LONDON
NEWS
Last evening arrived st this port the new
and fast sailing ship Hercules, Captain
/ Vose, 81 days from Liverpool. which port
she left on the 2lst Of October. Captain
vose and the passengers, have very politely
favored the Editors Of the MERCANT1LE
ADVERTISER, with London papers, Loyd's
Lists, and Prices Current, to the 10Th OF
October. inclusive, (two weeks later than
our former advices,) from which we have
extracted the most important articles.
The papers contain the Important news OF
a peace having been signed between France
and Austria, at Altenburg. on the Sd of DC
tober, and that BoGapartc was on his way to
Paris. We are not in possession of the
terms of the peace but understand, from
the passengers in the Hercules, that the
Emperor of Austria resigned every thing
but Hungary and Bohemia.
Our London papers do not furnish US with
advices from Spain and Portugal, later than
our former accounts. The island OF Wal
cheren vas still in the possession of the Bri-
fish, who have sent out several physicians to
attend the sick, and fresh troops to reinforce
the garrsons.
A change in the British ministry has also
taken place. Mr.. Perceval succeeds the
Duke of Portland as prime minister, Mr..
Canning has resigned, and is succeeded By
Lord Bathurst; and Dunlas Saunders fills
Lord Castlereagh's station. Several other
changes are spoken Of, among whom is Lord
Grenvile.
We also find, in paper of the 18th Oct.
the following paragraph that =" the Anne.
rican ship Horace passed Elsneur on the
2eth Sept. having on board MIR. JoHE QUIN-
cEY ADAMS, the newly appointed minister
to the court Of st. PetersburCh from the ".

the writer singularly enough supposes to
have been issued III pursuance of an az.
rangement between the British govern
ment and Mr.. Pinckney.
This letter is written with less ability and
possesses less interest than the other !;

missed in the close of this, but whish will

In my Gtst'letter, Monsieur le Comte, I
told YOU my sentiments Of the raising Of the
embargo in the United States. considered
that measure as extremely favorable to the
English commerce, or rather as It's plank Of
safety. j believe have demonstrated to
YOU the truth of this assertion; but had
only time TO say a few words respecting the
arrangement concluded between the two
countries, and to call your attention to the
disastrous consequences which that arrange
meht must produce to us. The Morning
Chronicle of the 5th May, has just given
us some details on thas subject, and there
find the most convincing proofs OF every
thing that perceived at the first glance.
Neither you nor I, nor any person in the
least degree acquainted with what passes in
ENGLAND. the character of the people, the
parliamentary debates, the stratagems Of
ministers, the pretended combats OF parties,
always at bottom agreeing on every thing
which tends to the pecuniary interest of the
nation; no person, say, would be tile
dupe of the pretended quarrel which that
Ajournal, styling itself anti-ninisterial, ap-
pears to have with the arrangement in ques-
tion but nevertheless the trap is SO well
laid, the intention to mislead the general
opinion of Europe is so manifest, it with
apparent ingeniousness confesses its fears
lest all the measures which the English 60
vanment has just taken, should be turned
against itself; ! see so many people, well

disposed in other respects, regard every
thing said by the Morning Chronicle as Cos
pel. and believe that all that has just been
done is in the highest degree advantageous
sous, that i have thought it my duty to ua-
mask openly this miserable Juggling, and
point on. the real intention of the English
journalist, and Of those who have directed
his pen.
For this purpose, have only to put in
the margin some very simple reflections on
the crafty reasoning with which he accom-
panies his news; and your doubts will be
speedily removed, as mine were.
