letter from the Grand Judge of Paris to
the Council of Prizes. Our government
has not yet declared its intentions relative
to the Orders in Council, the ministers
probably wishing to leave the matter TO
their successors. They have now been
left 10 a minority in the House of Com
mons, on the two great questions connect
ed with the Regency, and it is the gene.
raj opinion that the Prince will accept 1t.
We look forward therefore with confidence
TO the revocation of our Orders of Council
the expected ministers of the Prince hav-
ing strongly opposed the Orders of Coun
ell of November, 1907. As what is cal
led the system OF paper blockade, however,
originated during theIr former administra-
tion in the Orders of Council of 1906, and
Ian. 1907, st is sull doubtful whether
these will be revoked |; tho we sincerely
hope they will, and that all other dlferen-
ces between US aud the United States will
be speedily adjusted to the satisfaction OF
both countries.

INTERESTING.

We have been favored with an extract
of letter from Amsterdam, dated the
I'd May lasD stating the particulars OF
the condemnation Of the brig Maria, Sfa-
ter. The Maria, with her cargo, was
bona .fde the property Of an American CT
tizen. resident at New York and on her
return home, with her outward cargo on
board, from Gotteuburg. the 18th Deem
Der last, was east away on Amelund, in
the North Sea; her cargo taken out. and
seized by order of Bonaparte. Thus what
was left from the mercy of the winds and
the waves, was seized by the merciless ty-
rant, and was condemned by him without
even form of trial, but merely by his
own mandate. Thus are our poor ship
wrecked mariners treated by the Empc-
ror Napoleon.

London, Sunday Evening, sir o'clock.
All the accounts from Windsor concur in
representing his Majesty to be IN better
state of mental and bodily health, than ne has
been at any period since the commencement
of his indisposition in October last. The
greatest care is still taken to prevent all in
trusions, which may provoke Irritation, and
retard recovery The subsequent is the bull
letin she wn this afternoon at st. James,
His Majesty continues much the same
as during the last week"
The question of war or peace between
France and the Northern Powers, seems still
to be suspended in an equal balance.
The affair between the Little Belt, and the
American frigatc, still continues to make a
great impression upon the minds OF the peo-
Die in the capital, and as far as can Learn
upon the country at large. l. is said that 60
vernmert has received an official despatch re-
lative to the transaction from the Admiral
on the Halifax station, but it did not appear
in the Gazette of last night, as was expected.
It will probably be kept back Unit! the result
of an enquiry unon the subject, by our Minis
ter at Washington. Enough, however, may
be collected to satisfy any reasonable mind
anv man who has the honor and interested hi
country at heart, that the conduct OF the Ame-
rican, was law.ess, unprincipled, and cow
ardly in the extreme, and cannot be viewed
in any other light than wanton and wicked
act of aggression, unless explicitly disavowed,
and amply atoned for by the American go
vernmcnt.
