The American Frigate John Adams,
which sailed on Friday last, supposed for
Texel, returned to the Downs on Sunday /;
the port letter says. in Consequence OF con-
trary winds. Her return, however, is &C.
counted for in another way--lt is said, that
she was brought to off the Iexel by our
nlockading Squadron, and refused permis.
sion to enter, on the ground of having spe-
ce on board, enemy's property. Tie John
Adams on her way up the Channel, from
America, we understand, was boarded and
ovsrhauled by the Hussa' irigatc.

The late Nezvs from France.

We gave, SAYS the New York Evening
Post, the news from France as we received
it without comment We have exerted our
selves to obtain every word Of information
on the subject of American property in that
country, as il is Of great importance to our
mercantile friends. The statement IN the
letter from Bordzaux, which we give this
day, is supposed 10 come from high au-
shorty. But our accounts are still uasatis-
factory. With respect to the sales Of Anne
rican property, there are different opinions,
even amongst the passengers from France.
Some Of the goods were sold previous to
the PRONUNCIATION of the new tariff duties !;
and there was very great difference in the
price Of the articles sold before and those
sold after thefpromulg cation of the tariff
Cotton, for Instance, at the sales previous
to the PRONUNCIATION of the new tariff, sold
at $50 to $50 francs the so klo-
grams; and at the sales after the tariff was
known it yielded $40 to EGO francs; and
the goods were sold in entrepot, and the
purchasers were to pay the duty on the last
sales, but 1t appears to have been undecid'
ed whether the duties or the goods sold at
the first sale were to be paid by the purcha-
sers, or to be deducted frcm the sales. II
is however generally believed, that the new
duties would be exacted, on the goods sold
previous to the publication of the tariff.

Female Industry. --ln some towns 70
Massachusetts the manufacture of straw in
TO hats and bonnets has become an object
for the. enterprise Of females. Passing
,hrough,he interior towns Of that state you
VIII see almost every family engaged IN
braeling straw and the ladies' fad their &C
count in.it, for not only can they procure
ready pay for their labor as it's finished
Z but their earnings amount to more than
twice the .umolhey could in any other way.
Bonnets to the value oil fifty Thousand dol.
lars are anpually manufactured in some
towns; apporlioned 70 each family must a
mount TO several hundred dollars. The
straw, 70 De genuine, should be cut about
enc week before the usua! time Of reaping.
and is afterwards whitened by process OF
burning birthstone. Il is separated into
uniform strands BY simple piece OF mas
chnery, and should be kept damp while
working. Bonnets, m0re Il giant and not
less durable than the fancy bonnets from
LcGhorn, are made in this county and
the demand for them is such, tha, N all
probability their price will never be reduced
b. the increase of workers il straw.

Proclamation is the black forerunner OF an

~ appears to be the determination of the
administration, and we have Mumfords
enough in Congress to second their wishes.
The repeal Of the embargo has been con-
demned BY thousands and its continuance
pronounced by them the only means Of re.
venge or obtaining our commercial rights.
The administration have mistaken the voice
OF these thousands, these anti-submss;on

people. They seem determined on SINH

every democratic wish shall be realized.
