Very importantly

Last evening arrived the schr. Three Sis
tiers, IN days from Halifax, as a cartel, with
the passengers and crew Of the ship Laurel,
capt Durham, Of Boston, capt. Harris, late
m9ster of brig New Orleans Packet, and
capt Brown, of the ship Thomas Wilson.
with part of the crews of brig Doan and sch.
Severn, and some other distressed American
seamen. Two of the seamen belonging to
the Laurel have been pressed on board the
frlgate ATLANTA. When an American YES
sci is carried into Halifax, all hands, except
one, are tanned on shore for the captain to
maintain--no provisions out of his own ship
will be allowed for their substance, and
the unfortunate Americans are treated with
that hauteur and insolence which SO predom-
inantly mark the character of Englishmen.
Halifax exhibits at this time, nothing but a
den of Pirates.
We are favored by capt. Harris, Gate mas
ter Of the n. Orleans Packet, condemned at
Halitax) with accounts from Halifax as late
as 10Th inst He informs that the ship Lau-
rel capt Burnham, from St Petersburgh, was
still under detention. The brig Express,
Haskell, from Boston to Copenhagen, was
captured 29th ult by the Gnrrier and sent
into Halifax. The Commanders Of his ma
jesty's ships of war said they had orders
~ culture al H0ie1fcan UeSsels coming from
RHssiG.--Ihc Express sailed from this
port about ten days since, and is owned by
W.R. Gray, Esq, The reasons assigned for
the capture arc for having pig copper on
board, which they deuomiuate cnntra6aud Of
war, and being bound, as is alledgcd. to a
blocSaded port. What new stratagcm will
next be devised to aid Their pira,cal de-
signs upon American commerce the Lord
only knows.

There Is an article in these papers, which
adds considerable strength to the belief of an
approaching war between France and Rus
sla' Inc article purports to come from vi
emma, an artiice which no longerdcceives any
body, and enters into a view of the conduct
or the war between Russia and the Porte,
lmputing much blame to the former and as
sorting, that great dlscontcnts prevail in the
provinces of Moldavia and Wallachia, con-
quered by Russia. This is very different from
the language formerly held by Bonapr.e, in
speaking ofhis dear brother emperor, when
they were bothot the same mind for peace or
Tor war;" The fall in the value Of guneas
IN France is attributed chiefly to the idea OF
an approaching rupture in the North.
The French papers have also published,
with seeming eXutation, the Turkish ac-
count CT the successes over the Russians :
they state that they beat them near Ruds-
chuck; that three days afterwards they at
tackled them again, and forced them to re-
tire within Rudschuck. On the 9Th of July
they attempted to storm Rulschnck, but fail
ed. The Russians, however, evacuated the
place, and the Turks took possession of it.

it would appeAr that the sacred and vene-

than murder, viz. by shedding Roman Ca
