these recollections will sfford--sliIi more will
he envy you the grautude of that country
which you have SO cminenuy contributed to

Continue, fellow soldiers, on your passage
10 your several destinations, to preserve that
patience, that subordination, that disnifed
and manly department which have so cnnob-
led your characters. r
While the commanding general is this gi-
wing indugance to his feeling towards those
brave companions who accompanied him
through difficulties and danger, he Cannot
permit the names Of Blornt and Shelby and
Holmes, to pass unnoticed. With what
generous ardor of patriotism have these dis.

ertions TO provide The means oil victory The
memory of those cxertions and OF the snccess
with which they were attained, will be 10

What happiness it is to the commanding
general that while danger was before US, he
was, on no occasion, compelled to us, towards
his companions in arms, eigther severity or re-
bukc. If alter the enemy had retired, i'm
proper passions began 10 shew their empire

From yesterdays Boston Palladium
THE CONSTITUTION,

AT length we have information as to
the Constitution, (since her leaving St.
Jago,) which can be relied on. Persons
at New York, (taken from cartel with
American prisoners from Barbados tor
the Chesapeake, } inform that the British
irigates Newcastle, Learder and Acasta,
arrived there the beginning of April, land
stated that they had been i'll chase OF the
Constitution, hut that she escaped from
them in iog.-They had recaptured
the sloop Of war Levant, and carried her
prize crew into Barbadoes. These arc
the same vessels which long watched tie
Constitution in Boston harbor, and i'm
mediately after her sailing went in search
of her. The course the Constitution
took after the chase is uncertain but
as she had about 200 prisoners on board,
besides her own crew, and is said TO have
been in want of water, it is probable she
put into some neutral pcst.-Our ac-
counts however, from the West India
Islands are very recent, and it does not
appear she had made harbor among
them. We understand that Capt. Stew
art gave orders to the prize-masters of
the Cyane and Levant, to rendezvous at
the island of Ferdinand Naronka, on the
, coast of Brazil, in case they should sep
arate from him. Previous to the capture
of the two British sloops- of-war, the L.
first saw the Cyane, and chased her for
some time, when the Levant hove in
sight and the two enemy vessels gradual
ly Joined, and afterwards hove to and
waited the approach of our friga;e with
an apparent confidence of taking her.
They chase their positions, and the bat
tie commenced about p. NJ. After a
short contest, the Leyant endcavored to
get off, and few moments after the
Cyane struck /; Is men were thrown
on board the latter, to secure her, and
the Constitution pursued and soon had
possession of the Levant, Nearly seven
days were employed in stopping sho,
holes, and in repairing spars and rigging,
on board the captured vessels, which
bad suffered severely in every part. But
three cannon shot struck the hull of the
Constitution. One OF those entered the
bows, killed two men and TOOK of the
leg Of another, in Ii. Hoffnan's divis'
icr. alrpostat The instant Mr., Curtis was

communicating an order 70 him. Ano,h-
er shot penetrated the stern; and the Sd
grazed the side. The English 50 Id.
Shot, weighed about "a pounds-ard at
this rate discharge from the British ves-
sells was greatly superior in weight of
metal, to discharge from the Consti-
tuition. On coming on board the Con-
stitution, the British commanders differ
cd as to the cause or moment of surren-
der; but Capt. S. adjusted the dispute.
Sir George Golfers squadron (,he Lean
der, Newcastle, and Acasta,) arrived at Bar
BADGES on the lst inst. from cruize oil
months,and days, in quest ct the u. D. iri-
gate Constitution The TWO latter ships left
Cape Harbor, (Provincetown,) on the Gath
Dec. last, days after the Constitution had
sailed from this port, and were Joined in The
Bay by the Leander, and they all continued
the pursuit together. On the 18th March,
of the Cope de Verbs, they had the good
fortune to fall in with our frigate, and gave
chase TO her--the Acasta re-took the Br. slo0p
of war Lcvant, one of her prizes-,he. other
ships continued the pursuit-Ihd, according
ect and late from Barbadoes-the Cons,itu-
tion, after being hard pressed during long
chase, succeeded in making her escape in
Jog-no doubt to the great disappointmenr
and chagrin of Sir George and Lord Stuart;
who Immediately afterwards abandoned the
pursuit, as fruitless, and shaped their course
for the w. Indies. The Americans captured
on board The Levant, we're brought 10 Barha-
does.
We learn, tha. there were on board the
Levant, when she was re-taken, Lleuts Bal
lard and Taylor, lst and 5lh of the Consti-
tution,) Mdshipman Taylor and Derby, sc.
and abou, SO mcn.-Wc are also informed
that the Cyane and Levani, when captured,
were from Gi5ralter, out days, bound 10
Madeira. The British commanders, IL is
said acknowledged the loss OF so men killed
and wounded on board both vessels. The
action commenced about o'clock, in the
evening, weather very fine and the TWO ships
within pistol sbo, distance.
II is also understood, that the Constitution,
at the time she left St. Jago, had on board "a
majority of the crew OF the two British ships,
not having landed any herself. About 80
pris oners, left on board the Cyanc, were lam
ded as were SOME from the Levant. The
later vessel was much more injured in the
action than her consort.
AT Barbados, April 5, 100 American pris-
oners, among whom were the prize crew OK
the Leyant, who were TO embark for home IN
TWO or three days. News of the ratification
ct the Treaty, reached Guadaloupe, ST. Kits,
and Barbados, about March 90.

The Editor Of the Federal Republican,
speaking of the expedition preparing against
Alg gers, observes, that, "the navy will do II
self credit upon every occasion where navy
can act; ; but how it is to reduce the city OF
Algicrs is not quite SO clear naval force

We find however, in looking into Biyrhe's
History Of the zcar befween he Uniied States
and TRIPOD, that Admiral Nelson was able I'd
make some impression at least upon the fears
OF the Algerines. The account is thus conf
ciscly related.-Saiem Gazette.

Seizure Of Goods IN Canada :

Scizure Of Goods m Canada
Goods TO a con,idcrable amount have been
seized il Upper Canada, on the Niagara from
tier, during the week past, owned principally
by the merchants and others OF this viilege.
We know not what pretext is urged for ex-
crossing such authority over goods regularly
entered at the custom-boOse office, as we
arc informed those in the question have been.
The general impression is that the property
will be given up.
We had indeed cherished hope that
the inhabitants on both sides OF these lines
would find ii their interest to pursue course
tending rather to heal than irritate the wounds
made on private feeling by the connagrations
and confusion experienced during tho late
war.

MANLIAs, APRIL II.
Letters from Buffalo staIe, that the Provin.
cial Parliament OF Upper Canada, which is
now in session, and of which Gen. DIummood
is President, have enacted laws authorisng
the seizure of all the American property
which has been or may be carried into that
province, which is to remain state of seques-
tration until the will OF the British Cab net is
known. Some of the British civil officers
have said by way Of explanation of the pro-
ceeding, that no treaty of commerce exists
between the two countries, and that they shall
admit the entrance of American merchants
aud their goods or no, as they please. That
there has been some seizure of American
property carried into Canada since the peace,
we do not doubt but that those seizures were
in pursuance of any laws OF the Province we
do doubt much.
