The ceremony Of saluting 10 generally
oractsed with great ciyihty by the ships
ord,ferent nations. Our own ships, the
French. Dutch and others, receive and re-
turn salutes with an equal number OF guns
whether the commanders of the different
ships or squadrons are Ofequal rank or not.
A French Admiral returns the salute OF an
American Lieutenat with an equal num-
her of guns; and so an American Captain
that ola French Lieutenant. French, Brl-
fish. or Dutch forts exchange equal salutes
with public ships. But one exception Is
made TO British Admrals, which some
times subjects our naval commanders to
some little modification in proposing an ex-
change of salutes to a British Admiral
who declines to return gun for gun. when
Commodore Rodgers arrived at Malta
winter before last, in the North Carolina,
he proposed an exchange of salutes to the
commander ofthe fortress, and also to Ad-
mlral Neal, the British Naval commander
on that station. The Admiral answered
that he should return the salute with great
pleasure, but he lelt himself obliged Preyi-
ously to mention that the orders OF the
Admiralty forbade him to return It with an
equal number of guns. Accordingly no
salute was fired by the naval commanders.
The North Carolina and the fortress ex-
changed salutes. This requIsIhon OF the
British Admiralty appears to be neither
concillatory nor convenient 1t seems We
ry much as lfthe Admiralty should order a
British Admiral, on meeting foreign lieu
tenant, captain or commodore OF his &c
qualntance, to present his left hand, or the
fore inger of his right, instead OF SHAKING
hands in the usual way. bulletin.

SALUTE OF OUR ENGLISH VIsITOR.-
Some difficulty occurred the other day in
this port, respecting the salute of the Brit
iSh armed brig Ringdove, not being imme-
diately returned from Fort independence.
The commander ofthe Ringdove had sent
on shore, as his usual, to learn whether a
salute would be returned by the Fort; and a
message was sent that it would be answer
ed, gun for gun. The Ringdove accord
ingly fired a salute, and the commander
waited for some time, expecting It to be an
swered. Noanswering salute being made
by the fort, he naturally became dissahsf-
ed, and thinking himselfimpolitely treated,
he mentioned the circumstance, on coming
ashore, to the British Consul, and the at
fair was a subject fsOme talk and curiosi-
ty in town, during the days On a commu-
nlcatiOn being made, however, to the com
mander Ofthe fort, and an explanation en-
sueing, the whole thing was cleared up to
the entire satisfaction of the parties; for It
seems that the brig lay at SO great a dis
lance, and the wind being unfavorable.
the salute was nor heard at TIE fort. On
It's being knownthat salute had been fred,

GEN. HARRISON'S SPEECH.
The National Intelligencer contains a
report of General Harrison's speechin the

the command of Generals st. Clair and

those veterens have often heard minute par
hCulars of their situation, known no doubt,

well enter into his official letters.-What

white man. The handsome forms, the
apDarently cultivated manners, the soft 81
pleasing faces wholly European, even
more fair than numbers ofOur country wo-
men, and the ueatness, nay elegance, OF
their dress, aided By the faint ycrmllOn
tinge. which their unfortunate and public
exposure to all eyes forced into their coun-
tenances. caused them to form q very m
tereshng group. There were few people
IN the room who did not feel pity for their
lamontable fate; and it is probable the SEN
satons of these poor girls were such as to
battle description. Their father had been
a respectable gentleman, and they were
his family by q brown woman, VINO had
been slave of his OVID. He had brought
them up in a genteel manner as ms recog-
nized family; and they had been educated
similarly to the free ladies' IN the island,
che father never having considered them M
the ligbtof slaves. They had been acCus-
toned no receive the same treatment, IN
every respect, as the free children of a man
IN somewhat ODIlent circumstances, so
chat nothing could have been more distant
from their thoughts, than that ever this
would be their sorrowlul situatOn-that
they were one day to be exposed IN a pub
JIG veudue room as slaves, and knocked
down TO the highest bidder. The gr0utlRg
Of their freedom, unhappily, (ior their mo-
ther had dioda slaye) had been postponed
from time TO time by their father, till death
removed him from this mortal stage, with
out the deed of manumissIon having been
executed. His affairs were found in so
embarrassed a state, that his creditors at
tached his whole property, and even his
own children as part Of his estate. The
consequence was, these girls were brought
20 the hammer to pay their fathers debts,
being held to be part Of his movable pro-
perry. No oferers appeared, however,
and though they were several different
times advertised, and exposed to public
auction, they would not sell. Their gen
teel manners, liberal education, and pleas
Ing appearance would have entitled them
70 comfortable marriages IN Britain; and
Il was the very same reasons that prevent
cd any one I'M Jamaica from making pur-
chaae of them; because the neighbOrhOOd

state of the officers of our army, was a
subject for mirth and ridicule. In little
