The following remarks respecting Ame.

Mr. Whitbread remarked. that the news
from America urust naturally incline the
house to ask, were The negotiations at Client
still proceeding? (hear hear J MeIan
choly 1t was To reflect. that it now appeared
on the authority of ministers themselves
that atthe commencement of the contest. a

gave his vote for going into the committee
Mr. Vansttart said, il gave him great
satisfaction to say, that the conferences at
Ghent were not broken of but he did not
MINK 1t necessary 70 say any thing more at
present.
Mr. Horner said, as to the subject of Ame-
rlca, i the principle of the war was entirely
changed, and it was now wished to make
conquests from America, he believed that
tue war would not meet with the same SUP
port from the feelings Of the house or the
public,
Mr. Ponsonby wished 10 ask the right hon
gentlemen whether the papers purported to
have been laid before the Congress of Anie
r'ca by Mr.. Madison, were correct states
nents Of what had passed at the negotia
ton at Ghentl
No reply was made from the Treasury
Bench.
Mr.. Barring conceived that the extraortIj
nary measures they had pursued, and the
extraordinary pretensions they had set uD as
TO America, were subjects which made il
necessary that the house should have more
information than they were now in posses.
sion OF. He thought that no man in the
country could have expected that America
would have ever yielded to such preten-
SONS, at time that we had gained no ad
vantages over her in the war.
Mr., Stephen insisted that America had
departed from the usual conduct OF civilized
governments, in publishing papers before
the negotiation was terminated.

bOSTO ON october %.
We have been allowed by friend the
perusal of a letter written BIZ an Ameri-
can gentleman now in France, which gives
rather gloomy picture of the state of that
country. He confirms the fact so often
stated, which, ~ the way, could hardly
need confirmation, of the general d.ssatis-
faction ofthe inhabitants, at being treated
as conquered people. 1t seems there is a
general detection of spirits and mach mur-
muiIng, but no resistance except in carri-
soned towns. He speaks of the angry note
presented to the allied powers, which he
SAYS was dated July %, aud adds that their
treatment of it was evasive. The allies
had declared that they would not interfere
with the interior regulations of France.
out their armies proceeded in taking mill
tary possession OF different places, in the
name OF their respective sovereigns.
