FROM c coBBETT's RECIs1ER ExTR.i.
UNITED STATES.

ALL the last week the news from America
has made an impression that, in any other pc
riod, or with any other men in power, would
lead to change in a sysrc,5Qf measures.
For my own part, scknowlcd IA have
derived some hope, from the kIof The
public mind within lew day. l&4Hccess
Of those Yankees who have been SO Jo4< ~ .thc
objects of our derision, has thrown Qua states-
men into disorder and called forth spirit Of
inquiry, In parliament and in private, that
could not have been looked for under Circum-
stances more naitering. But my intention is
not now TO 60 into review of American af-
fairs every thing that have, said on that
head has been verified and by the next adj
vices expect, 1t not tue capture OF our fio-
tllIas on the lakes, the loss, at least, of Up
per Canada. What pleases me most, is Tho
sending abroad those foreign troops and {,
am The more satisfied, because those foreign
kroops are gong TO America, who cost, me
1.-TWO years Imprisonment, and for only refer
ring TO whom, when they were called in 10
enforce the hogging Of Bttish soldiers, 4
was compelled to pay, besides the ispPrsoD-
ncnt, one Thousand pounds sterling into his
majestys treasury. 1 say | am gralihed to
learn, that they ate all TO go to America, be-
cause they Will no longer be employed upon
such services as they have boen employed IN
this country aud because | believe, that If
not all, the major part of them will become
peacsable and orderly people in America,and,
like their predecessors the Hessians and Wir-
tcmSergcrs, who wcrc carried to TINT coun-
try. TO fog the Americans into subjcctioH in
the former war, they will become useful anc
industrious farmers and During
my residence in Pennsylvania, knew mary
of those Hessians, for whom his Majesty paid
by the head thirty or forty pounds sterling,to
the Princes Of Hessc aud Wirtembcrg,
sovereigns are now fighting on the side of
France, and against his Msjesty's allies Of
Russia, Prussia and Austria, and his highncss
Prince Jean, crown prince of Sweden, know
many OF them become rich and respectable
land holders. Many, if not all, the German
and Swiss troops, will, / entertain no doubt
whatever, become peaceable and opulent citi-
zens OF the American States. shall in my
first number of the Register for October,
take up this subject, to which have acyer,cd
on this occasion, because this number being
in addition 10 the usual weekly number. I
mean to preserve the conncxion with what
have said in the Register of the s5th with
the continuation of lhs same subicc; in tic
ensuing month.
cannot, however, but observe, that the
American successes have been two po~ efgui
IN their effect to be rcpressed or concealed
by the clouds OF dispatches, official lcttcrs,
and bulletins official and sc mi-ofaci.l, which
appear to have been thrown out it would
seem to diu,isish the force OF the American
news and TO con!ound and puzsie thinkin~
people, to glu, the "a with so many details OF
battles, and sffairs on the COMMENT, ss would
render men Of common minds incapable of
understanding sny thing TO which these PSI
pcrs official and scmi-oGicial, relate, it she
thinking people had 10 other means of OBJ
fsiaing Information or Il the cuan,lty wss
not too much for the purpose TOR which it
was provided.
