"Our government has revoked the
late order, by which Java coffee and
sugar, .fmericon cotton, rice, and med
icinal drugs might be imported from
yonr country, and all the vessels which
have arrived here since the LIST inst.
must leave our port with their cargoes
as soon IS tic Embargo is taken off,
which exists here since the landing OF
the English in Zealand. The short
duration OF this decree must be altrib-
uted to the will of Napoleon, who in
sists on the ,non-admittancc of Ameri-
can vessels, as long as the English
blockade the coasts oil France and Hol-
land, and search Americans at sea.
Aus. 2ed.--" Yesterday we receiy-
ed very bad news, which must cause a
decline in prices, and ruin our interior
trade, if prosecuted with severity, as
the French are going to draw q line of
Donaniers from the Rhine 10 the Wes-
err, in order TO prevent us from sending
any goods into Germany, and to seize
all Colonial products, passing that line.
This measure will knock up all our
business at once in this part of the
world"

meiican vessels are not allowed to take
any goods from here. The last decree
says expressly, that they may not go
to sea except in ballast.

the French Douaniers stop all Colonial
products which were on the road to
Germany-Coifce has again declined
to % stivers the other articles keep
as last notcd them.
1t seems the English intend to go
home again from Zealand, they have
at least evacuated great part lately,
and keep only the island Of Walcheren.

is not yet concluded, and the last let

sions that hostilities will be recommen-

stand however, that it is very difficult
to get the goods up to Hamburg, as

The late Niiniitry are calling out,
not for partial, but a total change
of Administration In any partial
one they Ice no hopes for themfelyes,
and they are more indignant at fuch
an idea than if no change AT al were
rumoured. Nothing but the re6gna-
ton or ddmifil Of all the Miniiters
will conteOt the late Migiitry, be-
casic nothing ellie could, they think,
give them chance of getting in A.

them to reeur to the cvidesce of ex-
pcrience; but what correaives could
they apply for any of the faults which
they imputc to the prefent Miniltry !
That fome changes, however, will

only barriers against the Liberty Of the

glorious liberty indeed, if we are to
