Washington, December 27. Official letters have been recently receiv- ed from general Wilkinson and lieut. Shaw, both at New-Orleans. Gen. Wilkinson lias left the Sabine and gone to New-Or- leans to defend that place. Colonel dish- ing and the troops are marching after him with all possible speed. General W. writes that unless he is actually reinforced, New- Orleans will certainly fall before colonel Burr. An attack is also apprehended from below. The letters came by water to 1 Charleston, and thence by land. They re- fer to other letters not yet received, and hence it is supposed either that the mail has been stopped, or that some treacherous postmaster opens all , suspicious letters. — Gen. Wilkinson and lieut. Shaw give the i.inre information. The letters are dated November a8. [U. S. Gazette.} From the KINGSTON CHRONICLE. The fallcwing is a translation of an address of the ¦¦government of licyti, to the mer- chants of neutral natio>is : The inhabitants of Hayti had scarcely thrown off the yoke of French tyranny, v hen they have been obliged again to destroy a»i#tb«r jiv(';r;>, whom they nourished -with- in ih-'ir own bosoms. At present, however, all their cares are turned to the culture of t'-u; e valuable productions which the mer- chants of Europe seek at an immense ex- pense in the remotest parts of the globe. Out constancy has procured us in the great- est uroui.iou, a suitable remuneration for our 'severe labors. The riches of our soil ..(ier to your speculations the most profit- able and happy perspective. Our stores full of a»! the productions, of the Antilles, wait or.ly for the arrival of your fleets to ex- change liie manufactures we require, with those you are desirous of obtaining. If a system cor.trr.ry to the advancement of com- merce has hitherto existed, that disastrous iunVie.'/--e will now be done away. The de- ceit has completely fai'ed. The phantom has disappeared and with it have vanished all the fatal illusions with which it was sur- rounded. Far from placing any obstacles to the freedom of comm.ice in our ports, the new government offer to you greater advan- tages than any other nation can afford. The flags vou trade under will never be attended to. The guarantee of youv property ;' your personal safety. ;v\d the observance of the rrfosj rigid justice, in our concerns, shall I ¦ assured to you on the faith of govern- ment. Wise and permanent regulations; privileges equsi to the difficulties yon may liwe to encounter in eltteriiig our ports ; dispatch in i.:ped:ting your vessels, and men. of integrity at the head of the public cffi.e's.: These are the changes which have taken place, and on which you can rely. Government is well convinced that com- Bjerce can mvev exist, iinles? advantages are reciprocal. Under this idea, therefore, they h.v.v ..heady suppre?e< d. patent consignments, t__TO, and produce of every kind I already mantifashired, awa't Jtrat arrival, ( and you are assured of meeting frith a quick and ready disposotion of your adventurer, j D.-neat the Cape, the 34th Oct. i3o5.

Anecdote of the archduke Charles and ge- ral Mcrtau. When the archduke Charles was on his way from Bohemia to take the command of the army of Germany, as he approached the s e ie Of action he fell in with a number of wounded abandoned by their companions on toe road for want of horses to draw the car- riages in their retreat. The prince immedi- ately ordered the horses to be unharnessed from several pieces of cannon thai were al- ready retreating, saying that these brave men were better worth saving than a few cannon. When general Moreau heard of this benevolent act, he ordered the cannon to be restored, observing, that he would take no cannon that had been abandoned from such humane motives, from prince's LONDON PKICE-CURRENT, Nov. 7.

The public are respectfully informed, that on SUND A.Y NEXT, the 14th instant, a new, convenient and expeditious Line of Packet* and Stages will commence running between the cities^of Baltimore and Philadelphia, where^ passenger, will be accominodatedi'n a very su- perior stile, A Packet, with elegant accommodations will leave. BOwly's wharf, Baltimore, at niit® o'clock every day in tile week, Saturday ex" ccpted, and, with a favorable wind, will arrive at the Court-House. Point in five hours, at any rate in the courseof the same day—where good stages, with careful and experienced drivers, are provided i'or the conveyance of passengers to New-Castle, A Packet will leave New- Castle, for Philadelphia, immediately after tires arrival of the passengers, which, with a favora- ble wind, will arrive in three hours and a half _ And it iipositively conditioned, that no unne- cessary delay shall take place, to prevent ex- pediting the trip. A Packet will leave Paul Beck's wharf, the next below Market street wharf in Philadel- phia, for New-Castle, every day in the wuek, Saturday excepted, and, on the arrival of passengers at New-Castle, they will be imme- diately sent on to . the Court-House Point, wher^ a Packet will away* be ready to rcceivie and convey them to Baltimore. '1 he subsci_~ bers have erected good and substantl I wharves and warehouses at the Court-Housc- Point and New-Castle, for the reception of goods ; and they have established public Houses at the same places, where passenger* can be accommodated v/ithFish,Crabs, _. Wild Fowl, when in season* and every other deli- cacy which a rich, fertile and highly cultivated country will aiibrd—and need be under no. apprehensions of detention from low tides in either the Delaware or Chesapeake Bay__thei landing on Elk-River is 7 to 8 miles below French town, and clie navigation to tl>e wharf sufficiently good for skips of 300 "tons ; ini New-Castle they possess the same advantages, havimr 16 feet water directly along side\l_s wharf. 1 he importance of thus shortening the dis- tance on the Elk-River, must be obvious to) every traveller. The subscribers think it almost unnecessa- ry to make any comments on the advantages' of this line, over every other yet established— they flatter themseVes that their packets -wily be found superior, in point of accommodations and sailing, to any others in the United States.* The four packets in the Ghesa] eake Bay, are> commanded by the four old captains that for- merly sailed in tne French-Town packets, vi z_ Trippe, Taylor, Ferguson and Owens, who are all interested ; and those in the Delaware! are commanded by careful and experienced men. The road from the Couvt-Honse Point to N»w-Castle, is through a beautiful '.eve? country, andean be travelled at all seasons of the year in four hours or less. Passengers? travelling by this route, can frequently' be landed in either Philadelphia or Baltimore, on the night of the same day that they leav«i either place. It may not be amiss to inform those unac- quainted with this route, that a packet Uft Philadelphia on Sunday last, and arrived at New-Castle in three hours & twenty minutes ; the passengers were conveyed from Uience to> the Court-House Point, in four hours ; ami had they been disposed to come on to Balti- more, they could easily have arrived there in five hours—making the passage through in twelve hours and twenty minutss. It is not to. b,e expected that impossibilities can be per- formed—such passages can only be made when the wind is favorable. They have aiso provid- ed waggons for the conveyance of goods tnj and from New-Castle & the Court-House Point 5 and can always deliver them either in Philadel- phia or Baltimore as soon at any line of packets. The subscribers do not wish to underrate any other establishment of this kind; their only wish is to do justice to their own—and by their assiduity and attention, to merit a share of tile public patronagR.
