the arduous circa ^stances of the present
me.
We are commanded by his majesty to
rifonn you, thn>t his. majesty's endeavors
• have been most anxiously employed for the
purpose bf drawing closer the ties by which
his majesty is Connected with the powers of
the continent ; of assisting the efforts of
those powers against the ambition and op-
pression of France ; of forming such en-
gagements as may ensure their continued
co-operation ; and of establishing that mu
thai confidence and consent so essential,
under any course of events to the restoration
Of a soli l and permanent, peace in Europe.
It would have afforded his majesty the
greatest pleasure to have been enabled to
inform you, that the mediation undertaken
by las majesty for the purpose of preserving
peace between his majesty's ally, the emper-
or of Russia, and the Sublime Porte* had
BrdA'ed effectual for that important object ;
hi- deeply regrets the failure of that media-
tion accompanied as it was by the disappoint-
ment of the efforts of his majesty's squadron
in the sea of Marmora, and followed as it
ha : since been by the losses which have been
sustained by his gallant troops in Egypt.
. His majesty could not but lamen t the ex-
tension of hostilities in any quarter which
should create a diversion ill the war so favor-
able to tlie view of France ; but lamenting
it especially in the instance of a power with
which his majesty had been so closely con-
nected, & which hasbeen so recently in debted
for its protection against the encroachments
of France, in the signal and successful inter-
position of his majesty's arms.
His majesty has directed us to acquaint
you, that "he has thought it right to adopt
such measures as might best enable him, in
concert With the emperor of Russia, to take
advantage of any favorable opportunity for
bringing the hostilities in which they are
engaged against the Sublime Porte to a con-
clusion consistent with his majesty's honor
and trie interests of his ally.
Gentlemen of the bouse of Commons,
His majesty has ordered the estimates Lr
the current year to be laid before you, and
he relies on the tried loyalty and zeal of his
faithful commons to make such provision
For the public service, as well as for the fur
ther application of the sums which were
granted in the last Parliament, as may ap-
pear to be necessary. And his majesty,
bearing constantly in mind the necessity of
a careful and economical administration of
the pecuniary resources of the country,
has directed us to express his hopes that
you will proceed, without delay, in the
pursuit of those inquirie connected with
the public economy, which engaged the
attention ofthe last parliament.
Mv Lords and Gentlemen,
His majesty commands us to state to you,
that Hfe is deeply impressed with the peculiar
"importance at the present moment of che-
rishing a spirit of union and harmony
amongst his people ; such a spirit will most
efTectuillypromotethe prosperity of the coun-
try at h me, will give vigor and efficacy to
its council and arms abroad, and can alone
enable hit majesty under the blessing of
providence to carry on successfully the
gteit contest in which he is engaged, or
finally to conduct it to that termination
which his majesty's moderation and justice
have ever led him to seek—a peace in which
the honour and interests of his kingdom
ean be secure, and in which Europe and
the world may h pc f ;r independence and
repose.

FEDERAL GAZETTE.
TUESDAY, AUGUST 18.
The Packet, Trott, has arrived at Bos-
ton in a short passage from Liverpool. We
have seen letters brought by her dated the
4th of July, which mention that accounts;
of the disasters the Russians have met with
had just reached there. Insurance on A-
merican bottoms had fallen to two, guineas,
barely a peace premium, and a strong cir-
cumstance to show that such an event is
calculated on in England. [xV. York paper.]
Ship George Washington, Hidelius, of
and from Philadelphia, for Bordeaux, was
captured off the Cordovan, by a British crui
zer, the passengers permitted to proceed up
to Bordeaux, and the vessel sent to Eng-
land.
At Nantz, June 29, Sally, Ilearly, of Bal.
timore.
At Liverpool, the Hercules, Abeona, and
Diana, all to sail for Baltimore on the 15th
July. The Packet left at Liverpool 130
American vessels. She spoke, July 11, lat.
JO, long. 16, 30, the Nioke frigate, who
informed that about a week before, near the
same place, U. S. sloop Wasp ; same day,
ship Philip, from Baltimore to Amsterdam.
At Cork, June 22, Herald, Murphy, Vir-
gina. At Amsterdam, Georgiana, Chambiin,
Virgiaa.
The following article is taken from the
Brooklyn (Long Island) Intelligencer of
Thursday last :
There are at present 24 gunboats fully
equipped at the navy yard in this place, un-
der the commanded of commodore Rogers,
who will shortly proceed to Washington to
bring the frigate United States to this port.
There is a rumour that a 74 gun ship, will
be immediately built here. The keel has
been laid, and timbers all in readiness for a
number of years, so that she can be com-
pleted in a short period. The recruiting
proceeds briskly, and a number of first rate
seamen have entered this service. Each
boat will be commaaded by a lieutenant.
The French Ambassador, Gen. Turreau, is
posted, by " A Christian," in the Washing-
ton Federal! t, as a barbarian of the basest
kind ; and the writer requests,that his Com-
munication " may be re published through-
out the Union." Good authority must be
shewn to induce the Editor of this Gazette
to lend his aid in circulating such a report.
FOREIGN NEWS.
By the Packet, arrived at Boston in 38
days from Liverpool, we have received ac
counts to July 4. Much interesting intelii
gence will be found under the Boston head,
and from the following summary, from the
Palladium. By this arrival we have received
the London " ourier" of June 27, which
is altogether occupied with the debate aris-
ing from the Kings Speech. This debate is
too long and uninteresting to merit a repub
lication here.
The news of the Rritish misfortunes in
Egypt, had readied London; but it is still
intended to endeavor to retain possesion of
thot country.
The ci-devant king of Naples has been
unsuccessful in anew expedition against his
late dominions.
A report prevails that Louis Bonaparte,
having displeased his brother by his com-
mercial indulgences, had found it necessary
to abdicate the thaone of Holland ; and chat
prince Mmat was to rula the Dutch. This
report seems improbable ; and yeJ^oilis has
appeared to be wandering abo'jtfl|Rh little
notice for the last two or three months-.
The new ministry have a large majority of
the sitting members in the two houses of
parliament.
The late ministers have tauntingly inquir-
ed of the present, whether they mean to
pursue a less conciliatory course with re-
spect to neutrals, than that which they
censured ? The answer has been " no ;"
but what might not be right at first, it
might afterwards be best to adhere to.
Notwithstanding the recent attack made
on the British government by sir F. Burden,
in his address, he was " chaired" with great
parade on tlie 28th of June.
The paragraph mentioning apprehensions
of a rupture with the M. States, was pub-
lished in a London paper of June 22 - tra1-
1 veiled to Hull, where it was again printed—
and then returned to London, where it was
once more inserted. It was probably writ-
ten by some person who intended to proiit
by the impression it might make.
Sir John Duckworth is to hoist his flag
in the Channelfleet, as second in command.
The accouebment of the lady of Mr.
Pinckncy, American Envoy, is mentioned
in a London paper.
Of the French victory of the 14th of
June, they contain the same accouns furn-
ished by the Paris papers, as brought to
that city by the Prince Borghese. They also
state a rumour, that on the 15th of June,
Bonaparte followed up his victory of the
preceding day, by successes which nearly
annihilated the remains of the Russian ar-
my ; but if we may credit a letter from
Konigsburg, nothing extraordinary was
done from the 14th to the 17th of June,
when the city still remained in the hands of
the Prussians ; and as the Russians have
been stated to have a large corps of reserve,
other important battles may be expected be-
fore the fate of Europe is decided—although
there is little room for the British to hope the
result will be agreeable to their wishes.—
There is no rumour of neg 'cations.
The late intelligence of the capitulation
of Neiss, in Silesia, to prince Jerome is
confirmed:
The king of Sweden is very ready in
giving one sort of proof of his hostility to
the French. He has sneessively declared
in a state of biockrr-Ic every place commu-
nicating with the Baltic which has come in-
to their possession. . He has just announc-
ed the blockade of Dantzic.
The accounts we have had of the succes-
ses of the Turks ov#r the Russians, are con-
tradicted by the British editors ; and a report
is given of an important insurrection in Coa-
stantiuople.
Great-Britain $¦ the United Stafef.—The
la*e papers shew that the present British
ministers are anxious for the preservation of
peace with America. Report states, that
negociatiou on the return treaty was in a
favorable train ; but we should imagine our
envoys would feel obliged to wait for the
particular instructions sent by Mr. Purviance
in the Wasp.
The splendid embassy from the emperor
of Russia to the emperor ol China, is said
to have been refused admittance into the
capital. On its arrival at the great wall,
the ambassador was met by an officer from
the Chinese court, with a letter and pre-
sents from the emperor to his brother of
Russia, and desiring him to make the best
of his way back, his imperial majesty being
unwilling, after so long a journey, to allow
him to extend it beyond what was neces-
sary.
Died, on Tuesday last, in the 28th year
of his age, Michael Drugan, merchant, of
Fell's-Point.
