ncntly entitled to the favor and pa-
tronage of the cis;zans of Baltimore.
Tho establishment Of Medical Col
lege will unquesiionaDly have a bene-
fetal influence on the general literary
eharacier Of our city: or it perhaps
may be hereafter cngratted the other
Colleges, and thus an university 5e con-
stiluted.
1t will however give Us other in
portant advantages--it will promote
spirit of investigation in the faculty,
it will induce young men Of talents
to establish themselves in our city, and
thereby permanently secure to this
community the best aid that can be
Afforded by the medical profession. II
may also be proper to remark. that II
this school should prosper, as is
anticipated, it will cause large sums
to DE expended annually in this city,
which would otherwise be discussed
in other places
We presume that those g:ntlemcn
who are anxjons for tine advancement
OF the IN teres.s of Baltimore, viii give
Us their support on the above consider
atoms.

ALBANY, July 2.

On Monday evening last, two gentlemen Of
this city,were takeninto custody, & examined
before the Recorder, on charges of high trea-
son. One of them was committed to prison,
and the other admitted to bail On TUESDAY,
another gentleman was taken on the same
lcharge, and after undergoing an examination,
was likewise committed.
The causes which led to this proceeding,
we understand to be as follows: On Monday
afternoon, information was communicated To
his Excellency the Governor, by express from
Canamdaigua, that a person had been appre
hended OH the lines, and was committed to
prison, charged with conveying intelligence
to the enemy--and that on his examination,
he had disclosed the names Of the persons who
had employed him--and who had also sent
another express to Montreal-that they resid-
ed in the city Of Albany and that from other
testimony 1t appeared, that among the dis
patches he had delivered, was a letter from
Mr.. Foster the British minister at Washing
ton, informing the government Of Canada, that
the United States had declared war against
blitain--the letter of Mr.. Foster was said TO
be dated OH the 18th Of June, the day on which
the Senate passed the war resolution, and the
day preceding the declaration OF war by our
government
The express to Montreal on his return to
tllls clty, was also apprehended, examined and
committed to prison
In the course of Tuesday, however it an
peaFed that there had been strange mistake
III the information communicated 10 the Go.
Veruor as to aameS and that instead of Mr.
roster, the British minister, the letters were
from John Jacob Aston, Of the city ON York,
principal Ia the fur company establishment
and were merely Of q mercantile nature. and
possessed nothing Of political character
Some 9th lcus and ignorant person on the
lines having mistaken the one name for the o.
ther, and In ms zeai TO serve the public, made
oath ct the tact which was communicated TO
nls Excellency the Governor
On this explanation having been given, and
which removed all cause of doubt or susDI-
clon, the gentlemen were immediately liberat-
ed from prison.
Mr.. Aslor passed thro' this city on Tuesday
on his way to Canada.
The gentlemen who were so unfortunate as
TO nave suspicion tor moment rest on their
characters OF having commjtted an offence a.
inst the laws, have ever held fair and hr-
CRADLE standing in the community they be-
long to most respectable manufacturing es-
adjustment IN this city, which is connected
With the northwest company of Canada; and
we have reason to believe, they have uniform
y acted as agents for Mr.. Astor in forwarding
expresses, and transacting other business for
nlm IN different parts of the western country
and in Canada. CGazette.

SOMETHING o.lfIA0US.

The American flag, (Which was hosled ch
Providence Bridge, on The day before cleo
ton, last week, in honor OF the iUusfrious Sir
VIM. Jones) was blown down, just previous
to the passage of the royal procession for
Newport. What isa little remarkable, about
The same time, the flag hoisled at the head Of
Banister's-wharf, in this town, was also blown
down Shall we no, indulge the hope that
this is the precursor of the downfall of that
faction, who have prostrated at the shrine of
British influence, every thing in this State,
which'is in any degree stamped with the A.
mercan chaiacter--and who have placed in
power, partizans, no matter how oorrup, and
Infamous, who would subservc their detesia-
bic views.
