mated ; tliey said, to a French officer whrv
was hi tlult town —" The French shall See
what we are capable of ; we form the right
of' '.he army of Poland, we shall shew our-
sel'es worthy to be praised by the emperor
Naooleon."
Every thing is in Motion through this
vast empire ; the Sheiks and Ulernas give
the impulse, mid every one flies to arms,
in order! to repel the most unjust of aggres-
sions.
Count Itslinsky has hitherto only avoided
being sent to the seven towers, by promising,
Hot, on the return of his messenger, the
Russians will have received orders to aban-
don Moldavia, and restore Choczim and
Bender.
The Servians, whom the Russians no
lonp-er disavow for allies, have taken posses-
sion of an island in the Danube, belonging
to the Austrian government, which has or-
dered it to be retaken.
Austria and France are equally interested
in not seeing Moldavia, "Walldavia, Servia,
Greece, Romelia, and Natolia, become the
sport of the Muscovites.
The interest of England in this contest is
at least as evident as that of France and
Austria, but will she acknowledge it ?
Will she impose silence on the hatred
which directs her cabinet ?—Will she listen
to the lesson of policy and experience ?
Should she shut her eyes to the future ;—
should she only Hire from day to day ;—
should she listen only to her jealousy of
France, she will perhaps declare war against
the Porte, become the auxiliary, of the insati-
able ambition of the Russians, and form for
herself an abyss, the depth ot which she
will not perceive until she falls into it.
B Y THIS DA~YTs~ MAILS.
NEW-YORK, April 8.
Arrived the sloop Sally, Mattocks, 14
days from Nassau, N. P. The brig; Eliza,
Johnson, for New-York, sailed 6 clays be-
fore. A Bridgeport and a New-London
schooner, had also, sailed. The schr. Pearl,
had arrived in lO days from New-York ;
and the schr. Concord, Latham, of Sag
Harbor, had arrived from Wilmington, A
Charleston schooner with staves is on Aba-
coa.
The schr. Maid of the Mill, Grow, from
Charleston, lately ashore on the Hook, is
up vith no other damage than the loss of
her rn'ldfi' and an anchor and cable. March
24, ISO miles S. E. of the Hook, spoke the
ship Ann, from New-York for Jamaica.
The ship Sdirth-Carplina, driven out of
Delaware in the late gale, bound to Canton,
(and obliped to bring up in the mad within
our Hook without anchors) arrived safe in
our . port yesterday morning, not having re-
ceived any material damage.
Below last night, the brig Melantho,
Fowler, from St. Thomas—; schr. Richmond,
of Norfolk ; schr. Washington, from the
Delaware, without anchors or cables ; a
sloop from Norfolk, and a square rigged
vessel in the effing.
PHILADELPHIA, April o.
Last evening arrived from his ship, which
he left at Cape May, Capt. M'Dougrall, by
ivh.nii we have been favored with London
papers to the 14th of February, being one
day later than our former advices. The
following are the only articles worthy ex-
tracting :
Price of Stocks, London, Feb. 13—3 per
et. cons, for money, 62 1-2—for Feb. Ac-
count, 6a 7-8 63.
London, February 13.
Some more Faiis papers have been re-
ceived, but not of a later date than those
received on Wednesday. The Moniteur
continues its remarks upon the debate on
the first day of the session. It contends
that France has a more deep and immediate
interest in extending her influence in the
north of Europe than in the south. "What
signified to England," says the Moniteur,
" that the French were at Vienna ? The
Ems, the Weser, the Elbe, the Vistula,
were not the less her tributaries : But when
the French armies were at Berlin, the Ems,
the Weser, the Elbe, and the Vistula, are
shut against her by a powerful hand, which
she cannot remove."
The official paper then asserts, that of all
the alliances on the continent, that of Prus-
sia was the most advantageous to our com-
merce, and that ive gave a proof of consum-
mate folly in exciting her to war. That
this is the fact will be asserted by none but
the Frenchgovemment, and believed by none
but the creatines and sycophants of that go-
vernment. But in agreeing with ministers
that Prussia was not incited by this country,
we must deprecate the manner in which
they speak of her conduct, and the epithets
they apply to the war she has entered into
with France. They seem to wish to have
it supposed that she had the choice of going
to war or remaining at peace—that she
might have avoided the war if she had cho-
ten. Is this the fact? Could she have a-
voided the war without consenting to sacri-
fices and humiliations that would have re-
duced her to a state of as deep political de-
gradation and imbecility as she could have
been reduced by the most disastrous war-
fare ?—Whether the war has been ably con-
ducted is another question, upon which it is
at present unnecessary to enter.
The Moniteur, following the tone and
temper of the bulletins, attempts also to
prove that England and France have an e-
qual interest in opposing the designs of Rus-
sia upon Turkey.— When Bonaparte is so
anxious to shew us that it is our interest to
ndoptany particular policy, we feel a natu-
ral propensity to recommend the adoption
of a policy diametrically opposite.
The society of ship owners of Great-Bri-
tain, have come to several resolutions with
respect to the new plan of finance, in which
they determine to petition Parliament, im-
ploring it not to accede to any proposition
to continue tile duties on the tonnage of
British shipping after die termination, of the
present war ; which duties they were so.
lemnly assured by ministers in 1802 and
1803, should cease with the war.—They
have also resolved to call the attention of
the trading and manufacturing interests to
the present lamentable state of British ship-
ping—to the depression of all sorts of West-
India and East-Indij prpduce, and to the
stagnation of trade in general, principally
resulting from the relaxation of our oid ma-
ritime regulations, and to the indulgences
afforded by the British government to neu-
trals, both in the trade of the countries of
the enemies of Great-Britain, and in the
trade of the king's dominions. The ship-
owners also urge the necessity of a strict ad-
herance, in future, to the navigation and
colonial system of Great-Britain, and a firm
assertion of our belligerent rights, which
would be attended with incalculable bene-
fits to the trade and revenue of the country.
A letter received on Friday, by a gentle-
man in the neighborhood of Brighton, from
an officer lately restored to liberty, from a
French prison, contains the following anec-
dote :
," My confinement in the temple, with
Moreau, Georges, Pichegru and captain
Wright, made me a witness of scenes which
still haunt my imagination ; and some day,
when we have the happiness to meet over
a clear fire-side, I'll rouse your indignation
by a repetition of them : The only time I
laughed in France, was at the relation of
an incident which occurred to a poor Irish-
man, who was one of O'Connor's glides,
and considered a clever man in the Know-
ledge 6t roads in. England. Berthier, rai-
nisterof war, sent for him, and began telling
him, that the expedition against England
would shortly sail in three divisions, one to
Dover, and others to places adjacent ; that
they would act separately, and that the
object of each would be to reach London as
soon as possible, when, of course, the coun-
try would be conquered ! Now, says Ber-
thier, how would yon recommend me to go
to London from Dover ! recollect I shall
wish to be there as soon as possible. Och !
my dear! says 0*Learyt.take the mail
coach. ! 'Tis needless to add, that poor O'Lea-
ry was disgraced."

Louisiana Svgar.
The United States, formerly apprehend-
d that they should want the n&essary sup-
lies of brown sugars. It is thsretorc
fleastire that we learn, that the qtKijM
iigar made in Louisiana, amounts to a full
part of our consumption. It is easy to
ee, that the production of cur sviyar v-,11

Already it is beginning to be a favor to fo-
Mgfl states to be alio ved to import their
Jgars into this country. We hope to see
thite farmers, raising crops of sugar.
