In the Charleston packet which arrived
last week at Philadelphia from Bordeaux,
came passenger capt. Sinclair, late OF the
ship Holland Trader of this port. Capt. S.
informs, thathis ship was seized at Charente,
in France, in October last under Bonaparte's
DEGREES, for having been at an English port,
his mate and crew put into prison, and he
would have experienced the same fate had
he not secreted himself.--The Neptune, o.
good, and the Two Brothers, were seized at
the same time on similar preteXt, and the
captains and crews were in close confinement
at capt SIS departure.
Left at Charente 10th of October, ship

The seizure of the Holland Trader was in
consequence of information given by two OF
the seamen belonging to her.--Capt. S. was
under the necessity of eEibarking i'll dis
guise, and under an assumed name, to es-
cape the vigilance of the officers who were
in search of him"...W Y Paher.
