Fr d;tor of the Freeman's Journal is informed by
s gentleman. who speaks advisedly on the sub
Meet, that the Commodore is to receive ten thou
sand dollars per annum.
ia The National Intelligencer has been inform,
Ia by an officer of the navy, who has Just ar
lived in Washington, that the report some time
400 circulated, of the frigate CONSTELLATION
having been detained at Pensacola, because
