FRENCH DEGREES.

Iftheir revocation had been more intelli-
gibly stated in the Moniteur, instead of its
being insinuated in the senseless and inconl.
prrhensible jsrgon in which it appears, the
thing would nevertheless have been falla-
cy. Numerous captures of American YES.
sells have taken place under them since the
2dof February. A few days ago we pub.
lshed the protests of two American cap
tains, whose vessels were scuttled, aud a
third was captured and forcibly employed
to carry home their crews. This wa, done
in the latitude Of Brest ia the middle Of
February by three imperial frigates which
had just put to sea, the commodore of which
expressly avowing the practical continuance
of the Berlin and Milan DEGREES as his au-
thority for acting in manner so arbitrary
and pirasieal. This days paper contains
another example OF capture under the
Berlin decree of Portland vessel on the
9TH of March, and near the port of Calais.
We may ask in confirmation Of the real
continuance of those DEGREES, whether any
American vessel has been permitted to
leave France since the second of February,
and even whether any has been reported to
be about to leave i,?-No, not one is the
answer II is as easy for the dupes and
tools Of Napoleon who write letters TO
England in order to aid the intrigues and
Juggling publications carried on there with
American assistance, to assert that vessels
coming from England are admitted, as it
is for the Nonifeur to pretend that the de-
crees have ceased in their operation to-
wards the United States, whilst they con-
,inuc as TO other neutrals, of whom there
are some. Hut neither the one nor the o.
therare entitled to belief, whilst their state
ments are contradicted by notorious and
unequivccal facts. There were frequent
traces TO the Lions den, but what alarmed
the more sagacious animals was, that there
were none from it. American vessels are
admitted, it is true, to so into Erench ports,
but that they are permitted to come away
again, none will have the hardihood to as.
sert but French partizans or executive re.
tainers.

More proofof the rep0cdrion of the Ber-

go Of the brig Harriet, which arrived this
AFTERNOON from Lisbon, we have been In
formed, that when six days out from that
port they fell in with three French frigstes
bound to the Isle of France. The Harriet
was boarded by Lieut.. from one OF the
frigates, who informed him that few days
before, the squadron had fallen in with the
American brig Sumuer,. with cargo OF
wheat from Falmouth (Eng.) bound TO
Lisbon and after taking out the crew, had
scuttled her. Attic same time the Harriet
was boarded, another American brig in CON-
pany was boarded, and robbed OF Ten
Thousand Dollars in specie, besides many
other articles and immediately sunk. The
officer who boarded the Harriet proceeded
to strip the vessel he broke open every
trunk on board and took out every thing
valuable. He then took thirty sheep, and
informed the captain that he would sink his
vessel, ifhe knew what to do with the men.
But as they were bound on long voyage,
and had not provisions for SO MANY men,
he would give him his vessel to carry home
the prisoners. After stripping the brig ne
put the crews of the two vessels which he
had sunk, on board the Harriet, and told
the captain to make the best OF his way to
America. To finish the business, he adj
ded, what would have been called In old
times, insult TO injury, by informing the
captain, that the Berlin and Milan DEGREES
were repealed. The crews OF the two
sunken briggs, thirty in number, have ar
rived in the Harriet.
