YERY LITE .FRO.M PALACE.


We have been politely favored with let
ter from respectable gentleman in Portland,
dated Cd inst. announcing the arrival there Of
the brig Leo, % days from Bordeaux. Cap:.
Libbcy, OF the Leo, states that Bona parte
was in good health that he was raising a
larger army than he ever bad before, TO go
into Russia, which according 70 the best in-
formation he could obtain, consisted of six
hundred thousand men ; ;ha, they had area-
dy commenced their marct, and the Emper-
or wss TO leave Paris some time in March Tor
the North, and that -. Frenchmcn 4, Bot
dcaux, appeared sanguine of his entering St.
Petersburgh in July.
Capt. LlbbeY also mentions, that the inhab-
itaa,s were very loyal, and no difficulty exist
ed in collecting the last inscription Of three
hundred thousand rn.n ; that bonaparie's ,e-
treat from Russia last year was altogether
owing to the burning OF Moscow, and the
premature inciemency of the sessos. The
loss OF the French, nc says, was much less
than has been represented, principally con-
sisting of cavalry.
Capt, Libbey further asserts that Mr.. Bar
low had, previous TO his death, Elected u
treaty agreeable TO the wishes of this coun-
try but owing to the sudden Gecease, it
was no, signed by him.
The writer OF the letter says, have seen
papers 10 the 25th Of Feb In one Of them,
where the Emperor is speaking of Ameri-
can affairs, he observes, 6. that il is left TO
America, cr the new world, 10 finish what
the old world had given up--sbo. Ms flag
should cover end .arotect Me Crew."
The above bris Leo is ownsd by Messrs.
Cobb and Clapp, the former of whom is enc
of Gov Sirons's Council, and Capt. Liboey
is fsdcralist. We mention these circum-
stances, that no eeotioneering views may be
attributed TO the above important intelligence.

there were two impressed american Seamen

them was pressed two years and half ago,
and the other about Is months since, neither
OF whom entered, aud 10th zvere COMPEL

Hornet.
Before the engagement commenced, the
above mentioned American seamen left their
station, went TO the captain Of the Peacock,
and asked his permission to 60 below, with
the crew OF the brig Hunter, of Portland, as
they could not fight against their country.
his request was heremhtoriiy refused by the
late captain Peake, and the two americans
were Jorccd TO their station, and eomteHed to
fight.
We give the above information upon gu.
thority which We arc confident win not be
questioned.
Capt. Lawrence further states, that sno,h-
er impressed American was reported TO have
been on board the Peacock, and that he was
KILLED during the action.
The two first mentioned scamcn, have ar
rived IL the Hornet, and were not wounded.
Since we have brough: this most important
subject before our country, We cannot omit
giving publicity to the fact, that two impress
sed American seameo, were on board the
Macedonian, during her engagement with the

were compelled to fight. Neither OF them
had entered, and one Of the was killed. The
