FOREIGN INTELLIGENCE.

received London papers OF the Soth Oh APlii'
and Liverpool paper of the I'd OF May.
From these papers, they make the subse-
LONDON, June %.
II is understood that none of the late Anne
rican messengers charged with dispatches
from the American Charge d'Afaires In Lon
don. who have sailed In the cartelS from Ply
mouth for MorIaix, have been permitted to
procecd TO Paris, but have been detained IN
Morlaix, and have beep under the necessity
of sending their dispatches to the American
Minister through the medium of the post ot-
fee, None of the Americans IN Paris can
leave that city without Special Passports to
embark for America.
The Charge brought against our Govern
mcnt by the Government of America drew,
as we said it would, an explanation from his
MaiSsty's Ministers in each House OF Parlla-
ment Lord Liverpool in the House OF Lords
disclaimed any intention OF doing any thing
that might tend to a separation OF the doni-
Mons of the United States, and added that 60
vernment had not even known OF Mr.. Hen
ry's being employed in America, until after
hisreturn to Quebec. Lord Castlereagh made
a similar declaration in the House OF Com
mons.
There can be but one opinion with respect
to the eagerness which MIR. Madison shews to
make the correspondence public, without TAX
ing any steps with our Minister in America,
or our Government at home, TO ascertain the
accuracy or inaccuracy of Kenry's correspon-
dence. The man comes to him In the shape
of a traitor to his employers; yet he places
implicit confidence in his statement.
Paris papers have arrived to the 18th inst
They are silent respecting Bonaparte's de-
parture from Paris 1t is not however unu-
sual with them to take no notice of such an e.
vent till two or three days after 1t has taken
place. Bonaparte is so much beloved by his
subjects, that he never lets them know the
exact period of his departure OF arrival, on
purpose, no doubt, to prevent their pressing
upon him in crowds with their GcclamaSSons
and their blessings.
These papers mention the movements OF
Austrian troops towards Gallicia, and the for
nation of corps de reserve in Russia.
Young Beauharnois is arrived in Paris from
Italy, but whether to be left there during Bo-
naparte's absence, or to accompany him, is
not stated.
A Mail from Anholt arrived last night. The
ult. and proposal was expected to be made
to call out all males from the age of lS to so.
The Orders in Council it will be seen by
our Parliamentary report, are TO be referred
TO committee, and witnesses from the differ
ent towns are to be examined.
This has been fruitful subject with the
opposition, and we doubt whether they are
very well pleased with the Ministers for &C
ceding toacommittee; for, investigation may
prove in this, as ora most other subjects, tbs
faIlacy of their assertions and thus they will
be deprived of one of their favorite sources
of defamation, inyectiye and misrepresen-
tation.
Yesterday French priyateer, rowing Is
sweeps, carrying swiyels and 40 men, had
the audacity to capture, within the Edystone
Light House, an American brig and Spanish
ship, bound here with timber from Amelia
Island she also took Pilot from pilot
boat, but a signal having been made from the
Maker Tower of an enemy, the Foxhound,
49, weighed, stood out to sea, and this morn
ing brought them beth into port.
LIVERPOOL, May 9.
The public attention has been much occu-
pied during the last two or three days, by &C
counts received here of a message delivered
by the President to the American Congress,
respecting a very improper interference IN
the internal affairs of the United States, by the
late Sir James Craig, Governor of Canada
On the first survey of this mysterious affair
it seemed to involve proceedings not only
highly disgraceful to those who had employed
the agent Of this inglorious scheme, but dis
honorable to the national character OF Great
Britain. We are, however, glad to Ind, that
on question being put by Lord Holland re-
speeting this business, Lord liverpool dis
tinctIy denied that this infamous agent had
been employed by The British Government al
home, or that encouragement had been given
ia any DESIGN Of fomentine dissentions IN the
