NEW-YOmi, Gcto'.erSV. We are requested by captain Gfopspy, master of The scli'r Manchester, from St. Croix, to state, that no official declaration of the blockade of the inland or St. Croix Was r.-ceived when he .sailed. A British mi val force, however, was hourly expected. To- British cruisers took all vessels trjat had Cafgi es foul that island. That two' Ameri- can Vessels had arrived at Basse-find, and unmolested by the British cfuieei-s after the vessels were cut oat of west end. Captain Cropsey wa- boarded by a British ptivatecr in <;i jht of St. Croix but being in ballast was not detained. The pi ivateer had an Ameri- can brig in tow, her prize.

The house next proceeded to the election ef a clerk. The same tellers which had been appointed on the former election having been named by the speaker on this, the members proceeded to ballot. It appearing to the tellers, on examining the voces, that one of the members had, by mistake, voted twice, this balloting, after a few desultory remarks, was set aside, and a fresh one taken, the result of which was as follows : Nicholas B. Vanzandt, ™ 37 votes Patrick Stagrudur, 26 James Elliot, IS J. W. King, 16 14 5 1 Josias W. Kinw, Theodosious Hansford, William Lambert, might have No person having a majority of votes, an- other balloting took place, the vote of which Were, N. **. Vanzandt, S3 P. RIagruder, 88 J. Elliot, 15 J.W.King, 10 W. Lambert, 7 T. Hansford, 4 C. Minifie, 1 A third balloting was about to take place, when Mr. Randolph rose and observed, that he never felt more reluctance in addressing the house than on the present occasion ; but a Sense of the duty which he owed to that body, and which he should always end'-avor to fulfil to the be;,* >l his ability, impelled kira to speak. He perceived among the can- didates for the office of clerk of that houSf, (a high and hof.orable trust) a person who «5ame before him in such a shape, and under •uch circumstances, that were he to with- hold the information which he was about to give from the house, and this person should hit elected, he could not answer for the ne- glect. The person to whom he alluded had a plurality of votes on the last ballot. This ptrson the session before the last, was chief clerk in the offise of Mr. Beckley. There ¦was an order of the house that the doors should be closed. The clerk is a sworn offi- cer, bound not to divulge the procewlings of tin- house on such occasions. He did his duty ; but the assistant* clerks did not p.-r fo. m theirs. Thi-y post1, d 1 uemse'ves at the gallry door, where, it was found, on exami •nation, that every word could bt as distinct- ly heard as on the floor of the tnuse. These clerks heard the debates which took place, :md the person to whom he had alluded was one of tln-in. Mr. R. said he had heard re- puted some of the expressions which he had used in the house, before he readied his rigs ill George town. Tin-, person came to him afterwards aud apologized for his conduct. Here Mr. Vanzandt (tin' clerk ! to) making a m ition of his hi ad, gig .ificaTlt of his dissent from the truth i f this aih gallon, Mr. R. said lit perceived that >v!iat lie said was contradicted and was about to sit down. The speaker directed him to proceed, lie s.iid he must d dine entering into a Contest of this kind, and added only, that a person who was capable of violating his doty in a subordinate trust, certainly ought not to be elected to the important , office in. question. Mr. Alston thought the house onght to adjourn in order to afford an opportunity of examining into this matter, and made a Di( hon to this effect. Tins motion was negatived. The. propriety of postponing the appoint- ment of a clerk till to morrow was suggest- ed, in order that the house might proceed with other business, A motion made for this purpose was negatived-'. The speaker informed the house that be Iiid received aleiter from the person offici- ating as clerk, which he was recjuesled to lay bofove the house. The letter was read by the speaker. It desired permission to be heard at the bar of the house, in order to disprove the assertions which had been made by the member from Virginia in res- pec! to the writer's conduct at a foimcr ses- sion. Mr. Smilie hoped no order would be ta- ken upon this letter. He thought the re- quest to be heard at the bar of the house a very extraordinary one, and if listened to might form a dangef us precedent. The house proceeded to another ballot- ing for clerk, tb Livermott*, Josiah QjirtMv V.venezisj; St-avgr. W-m. Stedman, Joseph B. Varnnm, Samuel Taggart, Jabez fjphim*.

A letter from London of the 5th Septem- ber, to a respectable merchant in this city, states on the authority of Samuel Williams, esq. late consul of thr United States at Lon- don, that the answer to Mr. Monroe's com- munication, on the subject of the Chesa- peake was of so satisfactory a nature as t» do away the apprehension of war between the United States and Great-Kritain, unless the war should be sought by this country. [Philadelphia paper.'] Extract of a letter from a passenger in the ship Alleghany, from Liverpool, for New- York, dated " off Sandy-Hook, Octo- bei 24. " Having just been boarded by the Reve- nue Cutter. I learn that the latest European nnws brought by the Swift, which ship sailed from Liverpool in eo. with us on the 9th ult. I find a ridiculous report to which the London papers gave currency, has been circulated with you, that Mr. Muiiroe had demanded a categorical answer to the dis- patches by the Revenge in the limited space of four days ; from the best information I was able to obtain, it seemed fo be ascertain ed that no communication on the subject of dispute had been made to government on Saturday, {the $t It of September, and it was not certain thai even on the Monday follow iii£ any effort towards negociarion had been attempted.1 Wirile, bowe-er, I am upon the subject, I will state the reports that were in circulation at the moment of our sailing -I was told by one of the most re-ipecta ble merchants of Liverpool, that Mr. — , a gentleman attached to the American c rp rtiplom.ttique, has written to a partsCul r friend in Liverpool, reque. ting him to call on my informant &assmv hi n ¦• that no pre- cipita'e measures wouid betaken by either government." " The Alleghany on her passage was brought to by a British frigate, overhauled and civilly treated—the hoarding officer in- formed that the Louisiana, from hi'uerpool forlialtimore, had pui intoCorkindistress." The governor of New-Providence has is- sued hi.s proclamation, ibv the admission in- to the different ports of that colony, of A- merican vessels with lumber, provisions, livestock, ire (as formerly) until the first day of July, 1808.
