Repeal ofthe French DEGREES.
THE last week has furnished much
interesting and important intelligence
from different quarters OF Europe
Bonaparte has partly, in consequence
of the distress and ruin Of commerce
brought upon the French empire By
the operation of the tyranical and I'M
lust Berlin and Milan DEGREES, been
induced to declare that they shall be
repealed on the first of November next,
it being understood by the French en-
peror that the cessation of the British
Orders in Council will follow as a
matter Of course. 1t will be noticed,
however, that nesv and heavy duties
are imposed upon articles imported in
to France in neutral vessels. No G.
vent can be more desirable TO every A.
merican than restoration OF our COM
mercial rights and it is to be hoped
that we shall not be disappointed IN the
expectation. Yet many doubt the SIN
cerity Of the French Emperor, as to
his disposition for doing justice TO neu-
trail trade-on the contrary, that either
his plan is, 10 make another grasp OF
property, or, to endcavor 10 involve
this country in q war with England -
The conditions upon which BOnaparte
promises the repeal Of his obnoxious
DEGREES are vague and indefinite. The
first is that England reyokes her o.
ders in Council. There can he 20
doubt Jut this will be done proYil :
the repeal of the French DEGREES are
absoIute--for the Orders III Council
were adopted on the part of the British
government purely upon the principle
Of Tetafiation.
Ii" The reader VIII further observe that
Bonaparte requirestha; England should
renounce what lie terms the new sys-
tenn of blockade. 1t is not fully under
stood what is here intended, as ii is not
known that the British contends fol-
blockades, although warranted by the
law of nations. If Bonaparte should
not be satisfied on this subject, prop.
osition is made to the Y. States TO make
war with Great. Britain.
BY temporary permission Of com
merce with France, Bonaparle win Oh,
tain two important objects. France is
wholly destitute OF those articles which
are used for home consumption--o
course the demand will be great and Z
supply obtained and the high duaeI
which are imposed on imported good:
will fill his Golfers with cash, whict
he is in great want Of.

Fer i,fr and imp9 q FRA En-
,2pe. On Saturday evening lat, ar
r,cd A. this port, the fat faiiing 1nip
Magdaen, Captain s.ketchley in IS
days from Liverpool, with the very
j aporlaut news Of the revocation of
the DEGREES % Bonaparte againit neu-
tral commerce. an official note
from the Due de Galore announc-
Ing fuch revocation. was pnbliihed
in the Paris Monitenr on the 9th Of
Auguft, and copied into the London
paper OF the 18th of the fame
n.oHra Il was undsrhood IN En-
gland that a new miniaer had been
appointed TO the United States, but
no mention is made of the appoint
mept in the papers 1t was alto flid
that Bciaparte had appointed a new
minifer to this country.
The fat falling brig Wheeler, fail
ca from London on the 9TH of Aug
ui for New York, it was fuppofed
with dispatches from Mr., Pinckney
for cur government.
The events, which have been an.
nounced by this arrival, are 70 mo-
mentuous md f. unexpected that at
tirt fight We can hardly believe in
their exiltence. That Bonaparte
hould at this moment abandon a
fylem which he has 70 long and
through 70 much fuffering on the
part Of his fubje6s, been refoived to
maintain is unaccountable. We are
at q lole for the caufe Of this fudden
alteration in his plans. If the 6tu-
alton Of his fubjects and the itate
of his finances have forced him TO
this meafurc, then has Great Britain
obtained a triumph indeed and The
has more caufe OF exultation, than at
the fucceilcs OF Mellon at Abouksr
and Trafalgar. IF Napoleon has
concluded to reffore commerce on
conviction that it is of advantage 10
his fubieas, and to civilized fociety
In general (, and he feels feriou6y
dilpofed TO allow mankind a little
happiness, after The mi(eries he has
inflicted, human nature has caufe
tor exultaiion and a day of Jubilee
ought TO be kept throughout the
world. But we Can hardly believe
him 10 be jerisuJ. As it refPe6ts
the United States, we cannot yet put
much reliance on his 1rieadly proteR-
ations. We 10 not altogether like the
file of this Kind note. II looks too
much like the language of a hauty
tyrant TO his impotent caves. 1t is
The very fame language that this
fame liberal emperor has held to the
people of every country that he has
cnilayed. And did we not know
that our local iituation prevents his
laying his inlatiable paw upon US, we
ihould trembie, at the very flttering
compliments he pays himielf at the
clofe Of hrs letter.

After part Of the last impression
Of our paper was struck off, we .receiv-
ed the result Of the Congressional Elec-
ton in New-Hampshire, as published,
by democratic Governor s. Council.
We repeat that according to.that state
ment only two are elected and they are
democrats. Owing TO the number of
scattering votes, no choice Of the other
three is effected.
The federalists Of Massachusetts,,
from this Circumstance, will have new
cause for exertion at the approaching
election of Members to Congress in
this state. The result Of the N. III.
election can afford no cause for exulta-
ton to democrats, if they viii for mo-
ment look at the remarks made by the
better informed Of their party, when it
was presumed the federal ticket was
elected. The Editor Of the Baltimore
Wing, declared he had rather see de-
cided fetleralists elected, than waYering
republicans Other democrats declar-
ed that some Of the candidates on the
democratic ticket ought never TO be
supported by any party.
