you that number of American ships COM
ing directly from the u. States to the port
of Naples, under promise of protection
from his majesty the king. have notwith-
standing been seized and their cargoes sold
for the benefit of the tisc." Nor does the
injury stop here. Though thus deprived Of
all means of subsisting themselves, the cap
tains have been obliged to subsist the crews
Camounting nearly to 500 men1 and are now
menaced with q farther exaction for port
charges. This, in the stroIi, language of
one of the sufferers, is literally to strip them
naked, and then to demand from them the
expence OF doing so. AS the Consular agent
OF the U. States at Naples has made several
unavailing representations on this subject to
the King, and as he has reason to believe
that the system, OF which this treatment is
branch, emanates from his Majesty the
Emperor. it becomes my duty to SUBMIT the
facts to your EXcellency, and to seek, thro'
your intervention. such correction of the evil
as humanity and JUSTICE may conspire to die
tate. A remark which equally applies to
the crews of the ships captured IN Spain and
Naples, is, that should the vessels to which
they belong be confscated, means ought to
be afforded them of returning to their coun--
try. In this event, therefore, have to pro
pose to your Excellency that two or more
ships be put at the disposition of the nearest
American Consul, and permitted to sail for
the U. s under bond. for the amount of their

The public have now before them the des-
patches. received by the John Adams, which
we published yesterday in supplementary
sheet. They add little to the information
previously received but they place that
information in the most unquestionable
shape, by giving it an official stamp. Some
hope might have been entertained, that our
frigate would not have been suffered to depart
with such unwelcome intelligence. But e.
veG that hope is now dissipated +; and no
thing remains but the manifestation of the
naked purpose of the French government to
pursue what it considers its line of interest,
without regarding our interests or rights. 1t

General Armstrong. some amicable PROPOSE
lions may be made but they ought not to be
expected, much less relied on.
We have not room in this paper further to
comment on the dispatches but we cannot
refrain from adding, that every American of
independent mind must feel a pride at the
firm x lofty tone in which general Armstrong
indicates his government against the un.
founded nsinuations uttered against it.

DIX, The United States, wishing to fulfil

ordinary mode OF remitting bills of exchange,
FOUND II necessary to enter into contracts
with Certain merchants Of the said states, to
make remittance in tobacco. A cargo of
thIs article was accordingly put on board of
the American ship Hero and dispatched for
the port OF Tonniugen in Denmark, with or
ders that the net proceeds should be placed
IN the hands of the American bankers in
Amsterdam for the purpose above mention
ed. The passage having been uncommonly
stormy, the ship much damaged and the

II TO be his duty, on the principle of self.
preservation, to enter the first port he could
make. lie accordingly entered that of the
