tS-A few days since The New Workers were
sllrprized by the appearance of the U. S. ship
Brandywine, of the Mediterranean station. She
brought news that the entire squadron was on lis
way home, on account of the expectation of war
with England. In reference to this we copy the
annexed from the Boston Atlas:
Return home of the Mediterranean squadron. -
The National Inteliigcncer has an article upon the
unexpecled return OF this squadron, which is as
cribed to advice transmitted by our Minister al
London to the Commander of that Squadron, of
the great excitement in England, on receipt OF
Mr.. Picken's report, accompanied by some indi-
cation that the immediate return of that Squadron
to the United States advisable, the station be-
ing one which, in the event of war with Great
Britain, it would be entirely unsafe for it to attempt
to remain in.
The same paper adds--that The circumstance
of so precpitae a return of the squadron TO port
at home, leaving the immense commerce of the
United States unprotected in the Mediterranean, is
very much TO be regreted,and is besides calculated
to spread an unnecessary alarm amongst Ameri-
cans abroad elsewhere as in the Mediterranean
Mar. Picken's2report, we dare say, is in part, re-
sponsibIe for this untoward event, but the Tea
cause is TO be traced, we think, to the total in
sudicency for his place of the Minister to Eng
land.
The National Integencer surmises that thu
Immediate consequence ofthe return of the squad
ron will be to hasten the departure OF that fitting
out under commodore Morris.
