letter from Paris, by the Syrcn, informing
him of the capture of his schr. the Mary,
capt. Darcom, taken by 2 French boats,
within a few hours sail of her port in Sardi-
MIA, and carried into Civita Vecchia, where
il was expected she would be condemned, on
the pretcxt of wanting the French Consui's
certificate. Three American vessels which
had arrived at Naples (names not mention
ed) were also seized. and the property Sc
qnestered--Civita Vecchia is nonlinally un-
der the Popc's dominion, and Naples under
King Joachim, but all Italy is really under
the control Of Napoleon.
Capt. Devereaux, Of the schr Jefferson, OF
and from Philadelphia, came passenger in
the Syren. His vessel was captured in the
Mono passage, by . French 74's on her
voyage to Maracaybo. The French after
plmdering her ofthc most valuable and port
able articles, took her crew en- board, and
BURNT the schooner. :.

1t is probable that Timothy Pickcring's ca
rcer in wickedness is nearly run, ifcertain
particulars published by the Baltimore Wing
are true. We do not think it safe for us to
repeat thcnl-but the subject will be laid be-
fore the L. States Senate at their next Ses-
sion. The charge is so very serious and the
present state of the evidence so uniavourable
to Mr.. Pickering, that it cannot be passed
over slightly either by himself or the pubiick.
Mr.. Pickering has denied the charge in terms
which do him no honour, but are every way
calculated to increase the suspicion OF his
guilt. They arc, however, in true Pickering
style of abuse and billingsgate.-.Nat 4Egis.

Certain persons in Massachusetts have for
two years past repeatedly said and written,
that King George III. is disposed and desir-
ous to give us honourabe satisfaction. Per-
haps some of the persons who Say and write
this, know, or think they know, what that
proposed honourable satisfaction is If they
do know what it is, they cannot do a greater
favour, than by communicating it to the A

we find them rise and fight again, just as if
nothing had happened. Bonapartc, besides be-
ing half dozen times poisoned, stabbed, and
killed in the field of battle, has lost FIVE or six
legs and arms which appear to have grown
out again like the second set of teeth Mas.

afterwards stabbed by Bonapart. in a big pas

and to have recovered from the stab /; so as TO
be able to command the left wing Of the
