London papers to the Esd of that month, have
bc,n received at New-York. The extracts
made by the New-York editors furnish no i'm
portanl information. 1t is stated that Lord Lii
yerpool was gradually recovering his strength
On the 22d of Feb. he felt so much better that
he expressed desire to see some offisial Pa
pers, which however, was not allowed.
Mr.. Canning was quite well, aud was expect
ed at London in the course Of the ensuing week.
His Majesty was somewhat recovered from
his late attack Of the gout.
In the House Of Lords on the 22d February,
Oh motion Of Earl Bathurst, the question Of the
Corn Laws, which was 10 be discussed on the
goth, was discharged in that House on account
Of the illness of Lord Liverpool. In the course
Of his remarks he observed that statement
would be made in the other House, which would
contain the whole sum and substance OF the
measure in contemplation.
A letter from Commercial House in ST.
Bartholomew, dated the goth ullimo, TO mer-
chant Of Newly York, says.-"We have recently
had several arrivals from different parts of the
United States, with provisions principally, the
larger part Of which was sold here to go to
windward; few cargoes to arrive here about
the latter end Of next month, would no doubt
10 well, and colonial produce will then be con-
siderably lower than il is now OF has been for
some time past. II is most astonishing to us and
10 all those who stand in need Of your supplies,
in the Windward Islands, that so many Of your
vessels, whose cargoes are principally sold for
the Antigua, St. Kits, Nevis and Montserat
markets, should go to ST. Thomas, instead Of
either coming to this place or to St. kustatius,
as the passage from ST. Thomas to this island
is generally from week to ten days, excepting
in very fas, sailing vessels. Our port charges
are also more reasonable than in the Danish
islands, if ysu come to anchor and do not sell,
the only expense is Sand vessels from wind
ward always stop here for supplies in prefer
snce to going TO leeward, and it is always found
decidedly to their advantage
Extract Of letter from Cape Haytien, date
March the l6th:-"I have reason to believe
still in an unsettled state, and that the brig
which lately bro ught dispatches from France,
has returned thence for further Instructions
Yet on the other hand, it is but fair to state,
tina, there is report in circulation, saying, that
all matters in dispute between the two cosn-
tries have been amicably adjusted; and that
France has allowed TO this country twenty years
for the payment of the residue the thirty mil
lions purchase money. 1t is devoutly to be
wished that this may prove to be the case, for
until every thing be finally arranged with France,
this country will from day 10 day more nearly
approach towards state Of ruin"
"Go,ernment has commenced the purchase
Of coffee, aud is now paying eight cents per
pound in paper money"
The Editor Of the Trenton True Americ an
asserts upon the most unquestionable au,hori-
<ty, that the administration Of the General Co
rernmcnt is rapidly gaining ground in Bucks
County, Pa, even in the very township where
Mr.. lrgham resides. Mr.. lngham is an active,
cunning, and daring political manager. No
man in Pennsylvania is better calculated for
dirty work, and none mere willing TO under
take it; bu, his influence has been on the wanc |
ever since the ridiculous attempt Of his parli-
cans to make him Senator; and his base deser-
ton Of the interests Of his constituents in vot-
ing against tie Wooden Bill, during the last
session Of Congress, has completed his ruin.
The people have found him out, as We were
sure they would do. They sec now that Gen
Jackson and the negoiiaiors Of the Combination
oTwhom Mr.. Ingham was one, have bartered
their principles for the t,csntyt,co roics OF Vir-
ginia. They see that the protection of Dones-
tic Manufactures and the great system Of In
'ernal Improvement, are TO be sacrificed to
proptiate Virginia and Georgia. They
see that General Jackson has refused to a
vow his present sentiments on these i'm.
portaut measures, and that Mr.. Van Blu
rem, Mr.. Eaton, Mr.. Ingham, and, indeed,
the whole body guard Of the General have ac-
nally voted against them. Pennsylvania was
won 10 General Jackson by the repeated assur-
