Sailed Dec. 2s--January I'd was boarded

Bel. Fed. Rep.
Edward Tinker, who was confined in Jail at
New0ern, n. Carolina, for murder, made his
escape on the 25th ult. The editor of the
Newborn paper observes, that, being sea
caring man, he must be known in most of the
sea ports and in the West Indies, and hopes
that some generous Tar will apprehend him,
who will feel the injury done him by having
the name of Ned Tinker attached to the hon
cradle profession ola sailor. ~
Capt. Hum, Of the brig Fox, from New
Providence, brings the unwclcomc INTEL gence,
that British squadron, with considerable land
forces, had sailed from the Bahamas, for PEN
sacola; and accour@1 had been received OF the
actual landing of 2ooo troops. The govern
ment at HAVANA were highly incensed at the
interference Of the American government, and
were preparing to send It force to assist in sup
porting the Floridians.--EhV. Gaz.
For what purpose is the new French minis
ter sent to this country? He has Eoy. been for
some time at the seat of government, the rela-
lions b,twccn the two counties are nos inter-
'&t7:c; nd critical; the session of our national
legislature has drawn to a close, they profess
sedly awaited his arrival with the utraest ssnx-
icty-And yet we learn nothing OF the nature
OF his communications to our government.
To suppose that he has made no con,muni-
cations and had none to make is absurd. Na.
po.eon does not send out ministers to 70 pur-
pose, without an object and without an e.rand
Neither does he send them Oh an errand
which they would dare to neglect or delay
The conclusion therefore is imperious and
Irresistible, that Serruricr has made demands
OF our government with which they either
dare not to comply, or which if they have
granted they dare not make public"
have party in America" said Napoleon
"who dare not disobey me, lest I should expose
them" Let the people remember this Let
tscm review the conduct of the present and
late administrations and determine whether
measures suchas they have pursued must not
have riginated inthe will Of a dictator WHOM,
"they dared not diso5ey."
FRANCE WANTS Mo.EY AND SHE MUST
HAVE 1T. "--'Twas said, twas done and
not only have fifteen millions Of our treasures
been transferred to her, under color of a pur-
chase, but more than double that sum has been
emptied into her Golfers from the purses Of
our suffering Merchants, by tie treacherous
connivance of our government.
