pap
On the first in?t. were apprehended in
Providence, R. I. captain Ebenezer Barnes,
and a Moses Un.iee, of Woodstock (-Ver-
mont.) (ih Suspicion of having a quantity of
conterfeit bank notes in their possession. It
^penred in evidence, that Barnes had passed
St Rro :"t ee riyetendollarcounterfeitnotes,
of New-York State bank, and had in his
liossession, when taken, often dollar coun-
terfeit notes, 'of New-York State hank, 370
doll.irs ; of New-Hampshire ban':, in 5 and
' 10 dollar notes, 1220 dollars ; three 4 dol-
lar notes of Portsmouth bank ; one fit/e. and
-" cue thiee dollar note of Gloucester bank,
and one A doihir -lote of the Exchange bark.
He declined giving any account of whom he.
received these notes, but said he took them
for a valuable consideration, as good bills,
and that his object was to obtain gold or
silver for the new bank established in Ver-
mont. He is committed for trial before the
Supreme Judicial court, which will sit in
Providence on the 3d Monday of March
next. Bruce was discharrfed on a recogni-
zance for his appearance at court.

FEDE RAL GAZ ETTE.v
TUES0AY, FEBRUARY2*.
Some hope, is entertained that the proper-
ty confiscated at Hamburgh by the French
jnay be given up for a sum of money. Ne-
gotiations were going on at the last advices.
Marshal Mortier had offered to withdraw
the French troops from that city, for the
-sum of 16 oco,ooo marcs banco. The se-
nate avowed their inability to raise so large
a sum, but offered 6,000,00c, which might
be taken.
Our countryman, Benjamin West, esq,
tas been re-elected president of the Royal
Lcademy.
Napoleon has demanded of the emperor
f Germany the cession of Saltzberg, Berch-
lsgaden and the Invertiel, for Bavaria, as
ell as the Austrian part of Poland, when
at kingdom shall have been restored ; in
turn, he has offerer! the Prussian part of
lesia.
The number of troops that have left Rtts-
i to oppose the French, is 70,107 ilrfan-
and 15,960 cavalry, having with them
'.23 draught borsej. They march in four
(Uiinns.
ror of fhe Jrencrr, by the fiobtesi cIr.'.<7T,
the admini'e amber of Posen, and
the judiciary. ' Tlie emperor answered each
of the; e harangues ; amongst other;!
he said, that France had rftver recognised
the partition of Poland ; that the events of
war had brought him into that country ; that
he found it conformable to his principles to
receive the repesentations of that ancient
kingdom; that/the illustrious nation of Poles
had rendered the greatest service to Europe
entire ; that her misfortunes had bee a-the
result of intestine divisions ; that he would
not promise to the Poles the re-establish-
ment of their independence, because that
re-establish merit ought to depend uponthem-
selves alone ; that when a great nation, many
millions of men, wished to be independent,
they always succeeded in their enterprise ;
that as emperor of the French he would
always see with a lively interest, the throne
of Poland raise itself up, and the indepen-
dence of that great nation secure that of its
neighbors menaced by the unbounded am-
bition of Russia ; that this depended more
on the Poles themselves than on him. He
adddi, that if the clergy, the nobles, and
the citizens would make a common cause,
and take the firm resolution to triumph or
•die, he would presage that they would tri-
umph, but that sterile vows and speeches
were not sufficient : that what had been
overthrown by force, could only be re-esta-
blished by force ; that what had been des-
troyed for want of union, could only be
repaired by union ; and that the political
principle which had led France to disavow
the partition of Poland, would, make him
desire its re-establishment—the Poles might
.alway? count on his powerful protection.

LIVERPOOL PBICES CURRENT.
" Liverpool, Januarys, 1807.
" It affords US great pleasure to find, that
a treaty of amity, ceunu'.eice and navigation
between America and this country, was
signed in London on the 31st ult. an event
; at a lime when our
intercourse with most parts of the continent
of Europe is entirely suspended. The de-
crees of the French and Dutch respecting
our trade must be known to you ; and by
the latest accounts it appears probable, that
even the money transactions between those
countries and this will be rendered very dif-
ficult, if not impracticable.
" Common cotton had rather revived in
demand, and there was some improvement
in the price ; very tine uplands reached 17
i-)(l a 17 1 2d ; but within these few days
they have experienced a decline, and may
now be quoted IS l-2d a 16 l-2d at which
they are in fair demand. New-Orlsans 174
a 13 1-Sd. per lb., and real good ones are
scarce. Sea-Islarras Continue very dull;
very few have been sold lately ; they
may, however, be quoted at 2s 2d a Qs
5d ; gocd ?.s ''d a 2s 3d ; middling Is lid a
2s j,stained and inferior ls4d a ls9d. The
stock of cotton generally is moderate, so
that although we, should be deprived of a
great part of our trade to the continent, yet
the coiii. ' option of this country, and our
trade to yours, will require considerable sop-
plies.
'* Turpentine, which had been so long in
a depressed state, has within these two
weeks revived in demand, and the prices im-
proved, owing toscme speculations made un-
der the persuasion that the stocks were not
unusually great, and that the low prices ob-
tained of late, would operate as a discourage-
ment to the- collection of it in America ; it
has been, bowevc>r, for these few days, ra-
ther less inquired after ; it may he quoted
according to quality at 10s a 18s 6d per cwt.
Tar steady at 21s a 21s 6d per barrel.
" Our market, lias been rather dull for
Several addresses were presented on the whi ur ; the former at l2sa 12s 3d

! the opinion w »re ::;iven, that the
1 crop of last year did noe -xceerl >... ¦
& that the stoaks of e!.i ..'hear left on harfid
were small. In this port, our present stock
11 is trifling. It is therefore our opi-
nion, that this country having.no more than
an average crop, and a small old, stock will
rcqniiv an average importation : which i'oc
the last li, years has been about four milli-
ons of bushels of wheat annually, beside o-
ther grain and flour, which is computed to
be about 1.30th part of our consumption ; of
this, about 3-fourths has generally come
from the Baltic ; and as there is every pros-
pect of our b'feing again deprived of that sup-
ply, it is probable there will be a good open-
ing for shipments from America, which may
reasonably be expected to sell on good
terms : but as much depends on the general
opinion by which our farmers are influenced,
who held so large a proportion of our stock,
it is very difficult to form an opinion as to
the price, on which much dependence can
be placed.
" The sales of rice have of late been ve-
]y trifling, at 24s a 26s per cwt. duty unpaid;
As the stock is heavy, and the export de-
mands entirely suspended,' we do not ex-
pect these prices to be supported.
" Ashes have come forward more plenti-
fully, they are not now so brisk, Boston
pots 66s. New-York, 64s, and pearls 71s
a 72s per cwt. The stock on hand not
being heavy, these prices are likely to be
supported, unless the supplies should be
more considerable.'
" Timber for some time past continued
in good demand, and been gradually im-
proving, square timber in particular is scarce
and wanted. Georgia .pitch-pine logs 2s
iod a 3s per foot ; plank 6d a 6 l-2d per

pine s 3-4d a 3d per foot of 1 inch thick.
As our supplies from the Baltic are likely to
be inconsiderable, these quotations are ex-
pected to be supported.
*• We have it not in our power to com-
municate any encouraging accounts respect-
ing tobacco ; during the last month very
little has been done in the middling and
fine description, and the low qualities are
almost unsaleable. The stock in this mar-
ket may be about 5000 hhds. and in Lon-
don we suppose there may be 9000 hhA.

Congress of the United States.
HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES.
Monday, February 23.
[Taken for the FEDERAL GAZETTE.]
The house went into committee of the
whole on the bill supplementary to the act
making provision for the redemption of the
whole of the public debt of the U. States.
Air. Gtuincey moved to strike out the first
section.
This motion, after some debate, was lest.
The committee of the whole then rose &
reported the bill, and it was ordered to be
read a third time to-morrow.
A message was received from the senate,
notifying that they had passed the 'oil! to
continue in force for a further time, the act
to prohibit the commercial intercourse be-
tween the U. S. and certain paits of the isl-
and of St. Domingo, with an amendment ;
also, the bill respecting seizures made under
the authority of the U. S.
The house proceeded to consider the bill
for the fortification of ports and harbors. :
Mr. Oh'n spoke against making any ap-
propriation. He said that if an attack were
to be made on this country, it would not be
maete on the fortified towns* If the people
ofN. York were so anxious to have that
harbor fortified, whydidthey not do it them-
selves ? /As to gun-boats, he observer.', that
we had been told, that 200 of them would be
sufficient in time of war—surely then, 73
which we had at present, was sufficient in
time cf peace.
: Mr. JR. Nelson said, that he had under-
stood some gentlemen had amused them,
selves with certain, expressions of his, r.bc it
running away on the approach of an enemy;
he merely rose to explain. He had said
that he considered it far better for the citi-
zens to abandon a town, on the approach of
an enemy, than to remain to be penned up,
as had been the case during the revolution.
But he had another objection to the sum
proposed—and that was, that if it were all
sppropriated on. the fortification of N. York,
it would be 150,000 dollars thrown away, as
that port was incapable of being defended--
nay, he would :\-k any gentleman acquaint-
ed with the situation of that harbor, whether
a million would be adequate for that pur-
pose. If we wished to defend the whsle
coast of the U. S. said Mr. N. in the name
of God let us appropriate 15 or 20 millions,
and raise 300,000 men m once.
Mr. Randolph also spoke against appro,
priating 130,000 dollars. He said that he
considered this appropriation merely as an
electioneering scheme, as a tub thrown to
the whale, for its amusement—merely to
quiet the clamors of the people of New-
York. He observed, that there had been one
plan submitted for the defence of New-
York, rather than to see which carried into
execution, he confessed he would vote for
the sum proposed—and that was, by filling
up the harbor. He thought the learned gen-
tleman who brought forward that resolution
(Mr. Elmer) must be a disciple of a cele-
brated Doctor, who had an infallible recipe
for curing corns, by cutting of the toes !
Mr.. Elmer also spoke against the appro-
priation of 150,000 dollars ; and Messrs^
Mumford, Thomas, Masters, (all of New
York) Q-uincey, Stanton and Cook, in fa.
vor of it.
The onestion was then taken on agreeing
to this part of the report of the committer/
of the whole, and it was carried—-ayes 71,
noes 45.
Mr. Dana offered an amendment to the
second section of the bill, so as to authorize
the president only to purchase the materials
for building a certain number of gun-boats—
'ost—ayes 30, noes 78.
Tke question was then taken on agreeing
to the second amendment made in com 111 it-
tee of the whole, (appropriating 150,000
dollars for the purpose of building thirty
gun-boats) and carried—ayes 08, noes 36.
Tiie bill was then ordered to be read a
third time to-morrow.
The bouse then proceeded to consider the
amendment of the senate to the bill prohibit-
ing the commercial intercourse between the
United Slates' and certain parts of the ish.nd
of St, PonangOj and it was agreed to. [This
