Armstrong; Letters zvitf the French
Government.
For want of room we have not been
able to give the official letters of Gen.
Armstrong, lately received by the John
ADAMS, enire, as WAS our intention
but this days paper contains an analy-
sis of them which furnishes general
view Of the subject. Whatever may
be our opinion of the general conduct
ofour minister at Paris, or OF the party
TO which he belongs, his late letters 10
the French government do him much
credit. He has addressed the French
Emperor with a III and spirit worthy
the representative vi an Independent ma
ton. Let the language of Gen. Arm
strong be contrasted with that of hir
Jefferson and MIR. Madison, and let a.
ny one Judge whether Bonaparte had
much to fear from any resentment on
the part Of our patriotic administration,
Tor his numerous acts of plumber and
oppression.

Blockade Of the Bahic.-There appears
to be some mystery in the late English or.
ders for the blockade of the ports OF the
Baltic. We find in the London papers sn
extract of an order for the blockade of the
port Of Elsineur. Captain Smith LETT Elsi-
neur the beginning of June, when no block
ade had ltaken place but it appears that
admiral Saumarez was, about that time,
blockading Gottenburg. The circumstance
had created some uneasiness among the
merchants in London who appear to be
as much in the dark, as to the real iHteE.
tons Of the English cabinet, as we are in
this country. [Cap'ain Smith informs that
there was large British fret in the two
Belts, consisting of 20 sail of the line, and
as many frigates. No one knew for what
purpose they were sen, there. He says,
that the Russian merchants at Rrvel ex,
pected with Frauce.l It is probable
that the mex. arrivals from England will
clear up these seeming contradictions and
It will be fairly understood what parts are,
andwllat are notblockaded.

FROM THE NORTH OF { EUROPE,

This morning arrived at this port the
ship Protector, captain Smith, in IS days
from Rvvel, in Russia, and SO from Elsi.
neur. By the pol;teness and attention eff
captain Smith, we have been favored with
the following mercantile information, tor
which he has our sincere acknowledgements,
and for which he deserves the thanks OF the
merchants throughout the United States.
Captain Smith informs that the prince Of
Aueusteuburg, crown prince of Sweden,
died suddenly, May 2sth or 2eth, in conse.
ouence of which all communication between
Denmark and Sweden was stopped Tor two
DAYS. Whether the prince fell like other
northern great men, by poison or strangling,
or died a natural death, we do NOT learn.
Captain Smith has also favored US with a
copy of the g Instructions for Danish pri-
yaseezs," granted on the 10th Of March,

commonwealth hostile to the general CO.
vernment but Snyder, and his privy coun-
sellors, who are well worthy Of their cor
respondent during the. presidential canvas"
These observations We were induced to
make from consideration of Mr.. Gallatin's
conduct on other occasions, during Mr.. JEFF
ferson's administration occasions of the
greatest interest and the greatest confidence,
which he betrayed to Mr.. John Randolph,
and out Of which he, endeavored TO with
draw himself by letter of denial, which
ike the letter just published only cor firms
the facf.
From the Baltimore Ameriean.i
The documents frstpublished in the Ma.
tional Inteligeneer and copied into the A
merican of yesterday, appear to be link
in the chain of papers relating to ErsSine's
arragemen,, laid before the house of lords /;
and which have until now never found their
way into $. the English or American news
papers," From the date of Mr.. Gallatin's
exculpatory letter, they appear to have been
in his possession. since the middle of April
last but TO give them publicity was not MS
object, until the surmises of the press CO.
creed him, rather too late for credit, to per-
form an act which duty,imposed on him.
We have been told, that the pamphlet con-
tanning these documents were loaned to the
secretary, from whom they could no, be re.
covered that when called for, the usual
apology was said to be, "!hat the secretary
had not done reading them" By this ex-
culpatory letter, the secretary places bis
words in opposition TO that of Mr.. Err
skins whose word, from courtesy to our
own public officers, is not entitled to equal
credence with the former. Thus the affair
must stand for tie present.

New YORK, July IS.

--latest from Russia.--By the Protector,
captain Smith, from ReveE, we are inform
ed that the crown prince Of Sweden died
suddenly on the 2slh or 2efh of May, sup
posed to be poisoned. In consequence all
communication between that country and
Denmark was stopped for two days. The
British were said to have in the two Belts,
40 sail of the line and 40 frigates & sloops
Of war. Three conveys had gone up, one
500 sail. A war with France was expect
