The Robert Fuiton.-The proprietors
Cfthis splendid steamship announce a
trip in her around Long lslanI, and ma
ny persons have already put down their
rames as passengers for this agreeable
expedition. We would, however, sug.
gest to the subscribers that, as the sea.
son has advanced, and the period nearly
arrived when equinoxal gales are ex-
pected, whether, instead OF going out to
sea, it would not be infinitely more a.
greeable to go up the Sound as far as
Newport, and SO up to. Providence.
The passengers would, without being
sea.sick, enjoy most agreeable jaunt.
The steamship could stop at New-Ha-
ven, N. London, and several beautiful
places on the way, where she could be
admired; ; and if tle proprietors please,
the Robert Fulton could enter Boston
harbor, and return to this city in few
days. We are decidedly OF the opinion
that the passengers will enjoy this route
infinitely more than duh sea voyage,
probably with gales, and certainly with
sea-sickness. We say the sound, by
all means, 60 through the sound.

Morocco. This Empire is in great
commotion. MuleySoliman, now up
wards of eighty years of age, is no lon
ger capable of managing the fiery temper
of the Moors and Arabs, and he has
been compelled to fly from province to
province by bands of robbers and rebels
which bold the passes ofthe mountains,
and have produced the greatest disorder.
The force of the. Emperor of Moroc-
co was once very formidable, and in the
prime of life he governed with great
skill and prudence--but he has lived too
long, and his sons and relations it is sup
posed have instigated this revolt. Mo-
rocco has no naval force OF consequence
IA few old guu.boats, ard friga,e or

Non.intereoMse proclamation We
entirely concur with the editor of the
National Advocate, that the terms of the
proclamation in intcrdicting all persons
from coming to New York, who have
been in Philadelphia within 80 days
Eoln its date, is unreasonable, and will
cause much unnecessary Inconvenience.
1t should not have extended beyond ten
days; as it may be stated as fact of
rare occurrence, that any person was cv-
er known to carry with them the seeds
of the disease ofyellow fever, during even
that time. To secure the due observance
Of any restrictive law, it should be made as
little burdensome as possible. .-Phila-
delphians will complain of the unreAect-
ing severity Of this proclamation, and
not without reason.
Joseph Bonaparte, count Servillier,
arrived at Powles- Hook yesterday, from
Bordenton, (N.J and crossed the ferry
with his carriage to this city, on his way
to Saratoga Springs. He was met at
the landing by one Of the marshals act
ing under the authority Of the Board Of
Health. and ordered back, as having
been 10 Philadelphia within 80 days.
He had not been in that city since the
5,h of August, and when there stopped
only two hours. He, however, cheer
fully submitted, and procuring flesh
horses Of the Messrs Lyons, pursued
his journey on the west side of the Hud-
son river. When the proclamation of
the Mayor was shewn to him, interdict-
ing the intercourse with Philadelphia, he
remarked it was very good law, and he
should obey it.
