lon Tuesday, left Cadiz on the Oath Of
IFulv, and, says that the Boston Daily
advertiser informs, that about the last
|of June Com. Decatur with his squadron
lentered the bay of Algiers, and imme-
Idiately sent on shore flag of truce. with
Icertain propositions as the conditions OF
peace, and demanded that an answer
should be returned in the space of four
hours--that the Dey in one hour compli-
led with the conditions, and in conse-
lquenoe treaty was concluded. 1t was
stipulated that all American vessels,
crews and cargoes, captured by the Al
gerines, eleven in number, should be re-
stored, and an indemnity paid for de-
ltention and damages, and on our part
that the captured vessels and prisoners
should be restored.
Capt, Hewcomb further reports, that
the Epervier and Ontario were dispatch
ed from the Mediterranean to thesU. S.
with intelligence, about the lst and 10th
[of July. The 'vanderer brought let
tiers from the squadron to the heads Of
and other persons, which
were forwarded to Cadiz from Cartba-
|gena..
That the above was reported at Cadiz
cannot be doubted; yet there are MAJ
ny reasons for disbelieviag it altogether.
We have news from Gibraltar to July Is,
and nothing Of all this; nothing of the
Epervier, which is said to have sailed the
1st of July nothing of the IL vessels
captured by the Algerines. We have
had intelligence of the capture of one A.
merican vessel only by the Algerines--'
it is not probable that any other---it is en-
tirsly incredible that 10 others, should
have fallen into their hands. Besides,
is tLis such treaty as Decatur would
make
I'VE understand letter has been re-
|ceived from Com. Decatur, by his lady,
dated off Algiers, July l. The letter
having been written from Algiers, we
CONSIDER as a confirmation of the above,
though we are unacquainted with its con-
tents. ---Gazette.
FlRE-On Thursday night at II o.
clock, the alarm of fire sounded through
our streets. 1t broke out in stable in
Mott, next to the corner of Pell street.
which was occupied by Benjamin Dis
brow. 1t then communicated to Robert
Nesbitt's dwelling house and store, Oh
1.-THE corner of Mott and Pell streets,
thence to several small buildings on Pell
street. he fire at this time presented
an alarming appearance; tire wind was
high and very little water near at hand,
In half an hour from the commencement
|of The fire, the Zion Episcopal Church
was in flames. This lofty pile, on the
falling in of the roof, emitted such
quantity Of burning cinders that the
surrounding neighborhoed was in the
utmost danger of taking fire. From
the church it extended on both sides of
Mott street to within few doors of
Chatham street, those dwellings on the E.
side of Mott, from Pe!i t. Chatham

Becare Of Tnceadiaries Northward.-
Sir ROBERT HALL, Commissioner of
the British Navy in Canada, lately in
formed us, that in June last, while he was
lin Kingston, an American came to his
quarters, and offered to destroy the whole
American fotilla on Lake Champlain for
a compensation of t,oo hundred dollars !;
and to prove that no deception was in
tended, he offered to take Sir Roberts
note for the amount, payable after the
destruction of the fletilla should be &C
|complished. 1t is necessary to add, that
the overture was Indignantly rejected.
Now, whether the United States nourish-
es in its bosom wretch so base as to
make this proposal with the intention of
performing the implied promise, or whe-
Their the person designed to draw from
the English Commissioner a conditional
note, specifying the proposed object, for
the purpose of using it is an instrument
to increase among certain party in this
country deep-rooted prejudice against
the British natisa-our readers will be as
we'll able, as ourselves, to Judge. In our
opinion, however, the prohigate fellow,
whatever may have been the motive by
which he " as infueaced, ought to be ex-
