| The scribblers of the British Gazette in
Georgetown, Columbia, have published two or
three columns of Gerry ingenious argument to
prove that Napoleon Bonaparte is dead the
only defect of which is that the said Napoleon
arrived at Paris on the night of the 18th of
December last, having left his army in winter
quarters near wilma, in Russian Poland, prepa
ratory to a march to st. Pctcrsburgh i'm the
spring.
ltwould be of no sort Of consequence to the
people of this country, whether the emperor of
The French we're dead alive, were it not that
the myrmidons of Britain make il matter OF
Importance Nor would the Republicans spend
their thoughts upon such topic. if they did
not perceive that every great as well as petty
wretch who is in heart traitor to this land OF
freedom, and devoted to the kingly govern
ment of Britain, rejoices in the disasters Of the
French emperor, simply because thGv believe
them to be beneficial to the enemy of America.
When we see this daily taking place, we really
cannot refrain from entertaining hopes that the
fortunes of this Napoleon may not be crushed
We do not perceive why, to CRAFTY the English
and the tories, and the rabble of refugees and
recreants, we shohtd join in denouncing the
| man, who, at least, does not spend his time in
debauchery, like the Prince Regent, who is The
enemy ot our enemy, who is, about to do the
U. States justice, and from whose successes we
have nought to lose. We have nothing to do
with his war with Russia; but if that war with
Russia is only Hominally against her, and really
against England who furnishes Russia with
money to carry it on, why, at any rate, there is
no treason in wishing lsonaparte may bang John
| Bulf to his hearts content And so far from
desiring or believing him dead, we most sim
cereiy hope that he may live long enough to
make Great Britain feel that she is not to be
tolerated in robbing the whole world for the
purpose of pampering lords who insult that
world she robs. To those of a contrary tenn.
per, we do not deny the right of opinion; but
We ask, what kind of Americans are they who
knowing that the British have captured and
aespohed nine hundred and seventeen ofour mer
ch2ntmen, without indemnity, in period of
peace, and impressed into slavery above tan
thousand of our citizens, can nevertheless wish
they may prosper

1. What in your opinion would be the pro-
babe amount of revenue applicable to the

suit from modification or partial repeal
otthe non importation acts. such as is sue-
gested in your letter of the 10th day of June,
1912, addressed to the committee of WAYS

Is the modification suggested by that
letter the best in yonr opinion that can be
devised to obtain given revenue with the
least possible diminution of the effects of the
non-importation acts> If not, be pleased
tn suggest such alterations and improve
ments as occur to your mind.
8. Are there, in your opinion, any fur
Their legal provisions necessary, or will any
be eXpedient, more effectually to enforce
the nonimportation acts, or to ensure the
more effectual collection ofthe revenue
4. Would it. in your opinion, be advisa.

Since the publication of our last, cartel with
prisoners has arrived from the squadron in our
bay; for the particulars of captures made, see
our Marine Memoranda.
From persons ofinteligence, who have been
captured, and from circumstances, we are in

at first imagined was only temporary measure,
and that it would cease with the occasion that

Our informants state, that they understood
from the commanders and other officers, that
the blockade would continue, and that as soon
as force expected should arrive, the Delaware
