¦ 'With this application, which is specific, a
ftrompt compliance is practicable ; but when
the request tr,oes to *f copies of the orders
issuer! it) relation to colonel Burr, to the of-
ficers at Orleans ana Natchez, and by the
secretaries of the war & navy departments."
it seems to cover a correspondence of many
months'with such a variety of officers civil
and military all over the United States, as
¦would amount to the laying open the whole
executive books. I have desired the secre-
tarv at war to examine his official commu-
nications, and on a view of these we may
be able to judge what can and ought to be
done towards a compliance with the request.
If the defendant alledges that there was
any particular order, which, as a cause,
produced any particular act on his part, then
he m.ist know what this order was, can
specify it, and a prompt answer can be giv-
en. If the obfect had been specified, we
might then have had some guide for our
conjectures as to wh.-.t part of the executive
records might be useful to him But, with
a perfect willingness to do what is right, we
are without the indications which may ena-
ble us to do it. If the researches of the se-
cretary at war should produce any thing
proper for communication and pertinent to
any point we can conceive in the defence
before the court, it shall be forwarded to you.
I salute you with esteem and respect.

WARSAW, March IS.
The ambassador of his majesty the em-
peror of Persia, to his majesty the emperor
'of the French and king of Italy; has receiv-
ed from Theran, the account of the brilliant
success obtained by the arms of his sove-
reign.
The Prince, Abbas-Mirza, son of the em-
peror, and renowned in the East For his
bravery, announced to him, under date of
the 26th of December last, that prince Me-'
hemed-Veli-Mirza, one of his brothers, who
commands in the Khorassan, has carried his
victorious arms even to Oxus, and that he
had taken the eity of Merve, belonging to
the Tartars-Usbecks, situated about 5 days
journey fiom Boukara. The governor of
this country has sworn obedience to ths
emperor of Persia.
Kaboul and Candahar are entirely subject
to Feth-.iii Schak. They make this day a
part of the Persian empire, and many so-
lemn embassies have been sent to the em-
peror, to assure him of the fidelity of the
inhabitants of this country, even to the fron-
tiers of India.
The prince Abbas Mil za is in the Moghan
and Carabagh, at the head of a formidable
army, four days' journey from Tifflis. He
has taken from his army 40,000 men, to
march to Georgia. Ahmed-Ahan, who com-
manded them, has already taken Churegsl
and Penbeh, where he found many pieces
of artillery. All the Russians who defended
those places have been killed or brought pri-
soners to prince Abbas Mirza. A great num-
ber of Russian deserters arrive every day at
the Persian camp. The emperor of Persia,
to recom pence th.e brave Ahmed-Khan, has
joined to his government that of Erwan.
This train of success, obtained at every point
of the empire, gives to Persia a new degree
of splendor and of power. The Khorassan
is no longer exposed to the incursions of
the Tartars—the authority of Persia arrives
even to the frontiers of the English posses-
sions in India. The Russians are badly es-
tablished in Georgia, and are attacked on all
sides. The most perfect union exists in all
the provinces of the empire, and Persia can
bring new forces against her enemies.
The Russians have made propositions of
accommodation. Feth-Aii-Schah has re-
fused them, He has stopped all kinds of
commercial relations, and all communica-
tion with Russia ; and has answered, that as
long as the grand emperor, his friend and al-
ly, shall carry an war against the Russians,
they ou^ht not to hope for peace, nor a ces-
sation of arms from Persia.
The emperor of Russia left Memel on the
5th of ipnl, for his army of reserve in Li-
thuania. His Prussian majesty followed
him, having in his suite the baron Har-
denberg. The Btiglish general Hutchinson
has also left [tlemel for Lithuania. .
. The heavy ar.iilery destined i'qr the siege
of Dantzic, arrived before that place on the
18th of April.
Another levy of i5,00o men is making in
Poland to reinibrce the national army.

consul at Warna, to his eicelleiiKy the min-

RuTSCHUCK, Fffb. 26.
The Turks have in several skirmishes gain-
ed advantage s more or less considerable over
the Uiussiuns
On the 3d January, Pu'.ivan-Aga, Avail of
Silistrta, attacked the Russians n«ar Galatz,
killed 3UC of Ilium and made 500 prisoners,
which were sent to Mustapha Pacha, with
Some bags of heads and ears.
On the ^Oth of the same month, 1500 Rus-
sians and Wallachians, having-advanced from
Bucharest and Zimizza, a village in VVallachia,
in front of Sistrow, the Turks killed or took
20u prisoners, and put the rest to flight.
A more important engagement took place
on the 29th, near Ismallof, between Peclivan-
Ag-a and the Russians. The latter Inst 800
men in killed, 500 prisoners, 3 pieces ofcannon
and several stands of colors. I'eclivan-Aga
has 1500O excellent cavalry under bis coin
mand, the half of whom consists of most de-
termined Tartars.
On the 9th February, another partial action
took place near village of Piatra, some leagues
beyond Bucharest. The Russians had 600
men killed, and lost 600 prisoners, besides a
piece of cannon and 800 horses.
Mustapha l'acha's army amounts to 60,000
men. he givsspardon to no rajah, who is in
the ranks of the Russian army. He treats his
prisoners well.
It appears certain that dissentions have bro-
ken out at Bucharest, be,ween Ypsilanti, Mi
chelson and the Uoyardg. The Russians have
almost all left the town, in order, it is thought,
to recross the Dniester. They are at most to
the number of 12 or, 15300 men.
Prince Suzzo, who has arrived her? within
these tew days, has sent hit spatar to Crajove,
in lower VVallachia, in order to assemble the
faithful Boyards around him, and arm the in-
habitants ; it will then be seen that not a single
Boyard will remain with Ypsilanti.

denounce none concerned. Let every man be
