there was favorable moment, the bsiy's yards
were always aloft, and her cables ready 10 slip
in q moment. Thus we were completely block
AIDED.
In few days the transport hauled outside in
the n. w. channel, and the brig in the ship
cilannel and remained so until the 24th April,
when ship arrived from Leghorn, by which we
learnt that the treaty ofpeace was ratified by our
government. On the Goth transport brig ar
rived from Malta, with the two prizsmasters
and crews of the two last prizes sent into Tunis.
These prizes were captured in the hG,6or of 'ru-
nus, by the English gun brig Iyra, bowel o'Reil-
iy, commander, another audacious, unprincipled
act. The prizemasters and crews were carried
INTO Malta in the Lyra, and put in prison, and
Kept until the official account of the ratification
ofpeace was received. BY this transport we also
learnt, that the brig Hope our prize, had been
recaptured by the English schr. Emma, which
schooner we had made cartel of, and given up
to the csptanwith orders Cor him to land the pri-
soners at Cagliaia in Sardinia, which he agreed
to do. The Pauline and transport having sailed
| tor Malta, on the 18th we sailed from Tripoli,
and on the S0th anchored in Tuns bay. We here
found part of the crew Of the Hope. Procured
such refreshments we were in want of, and on
| the 4th of May sailed again, and on the 18th ar
rived at Marseilles, and anchored in Pomague to
perform quaratine. On the 22d, arrived the
schr Spartan, OF Baltimore, in 81 days from Ma
| pies. On the 18th June we began to take on
board part ofour cargo, and on the 30th sailed
for home. On the 9th of July, off Cape Pallas,

INDIAN NEWS.

From the st. Louis paper Of July Is.
E.rtract Of a letter froma friend at Per-
tGge de 'Siour dated July llM.
The Commissioners were unable TO omen
the council until yesterday, very few In
dams have yet arrived and none OF any
note from those tribes who are vet COM
hitting murders and stealing horses, sc.
on our borders It's true the Sackies and
Foxes have so or 40 men here who attend
ed the council, but they are the most in
considerable of their nation, destitute of
power or authority to treat.
Governor Clark opened the council
with the luminous view of the conduct Of
the different nations of indians before and
during the late war with the British
The Sacs were the last spoken to thew
were reminded of their conduct within
the last ora years, and informed of the be-
nevolent intentions, of the President &his
wish to bury the tomahawk and forget past
transactions. The Governor expressed
surprise at the absence of their chiefs and
head-men, and advised them to 90 or send
tor their chiefs Immediately, as their non
appearance would, in thirty days from that
day, result in war.
This conversation was interpreted to
the Shawanoes, Delawares, Sioux, Ma
has, &c. &c. by their respective interpre-
tiers, and they rose as ifby instinct, ex-
pressing their assent by vehement cries OF
applause, which much appalled, the Sacks
and KickaPoos.
After the council, when each tribe had
retired to their camp, rumor cot afloat
that some Of the friendly indians intended
mischief against the Sacs and Kickapoos a
strong guard was sent to protect them. but
some time in the night they took fright,
embarked in their canoes and pushed up
the Mississippi. presume they will re-
turn with their chiefs in few days, a.
the whole nation are encamped some dis
lance above Salt river, two or three days
journey from this place.
There are but few Pattawatonies ar
rived yet, the remaining chiefs are expect
ed daily.
