BOSTON, November 10.
Last evening.; report was brought to town,
through different channels, from Marblehead,
stating, that one or more fi'hermen had ar-
rived there from the Banks, which had been
Spoken by the Hevenge, on her passage from
England, and informed that War was De-
clared AGAINST THIS COUNTRY ! !
That a fisherman has arrived and spread .
such a report, we believe ; but whether he
is hoaxed or hoaxing, we cannot determine,
A st'iry so very improbable, wants some bet.
ter authority to give it the least consequence.
COVIYIRRCIAL INPOttM.VriON.
It has been stated in some of «nr town
papers, that by a royal decree of the Dutch
government, dated 28th - i ugust, " no Ame-
rican or other neutral vessel, that had touch-
ed, at England, or which had been carried
into England, would be allowed to discharge
at any of the ports in Holland :'"' .' s this
article has caused some alarm, and probably
is not warranted in its fullest extent, by the
principles of the. decree in question, we have
deemed it of importance to procure a trans
lationofthe same ; which is here presented,
from a French paper.
Hague, Sept. 3.—Louis Napoleon by the
Grace of God and the constitution of the
kingdom, king of Holland. Considering
that, consistent with the true interests af
our kingdom it is our duty, by all the means
in our power, to co-operate in the desired
execution of the great measures adopted by
the emperor and king, against the common
enemy, for the purpose of obtaining a gene-
neral peace, and the independence ofthe seas
—considering that some subaltern agents have
rendered themselves criminal by want of firm-
ness and neglect inthe execution ofthe mea
sures directed by our decree of the 5th of
December,1806 -considering the artifice and
bad faith which have been employed 111 se-
veral ports of the enemy, with respect to the
papers of neutral vessels, and by which the
health of Europe was put to hazard, by ma-
king out letters of quarantine—considering,
finally, that all those irregularities ought to
be terminated at a moment so critical for the
enemy of the whole continent, and in par-
ticular of all the eommercial states ; and that
the honour and the dearest interests of our
subjects would be compromised, were the
strict execution ofthe laws and decrees pass
ed for this purpose overlooked — we have,
therefore, decreed as follows ;---
Art. 1. The agents, arrested in conse-
quence ofthe orders of our minister of jus-
tice and police, shall be brought before the
competent courts to answer for their con-
duct according to the laws.
2. The vessels stopped in our harbors, a
list of which is sflbjpini d, shall be decided
upon by the competent tribtin..ls.
3. Reckoning from the date ofthe present
decree, all vessels entering i.waids, shall
give a double security which shall remain
until the legality ct th. ir papers he fully ac-
knowledged, ft until it be proved that these
vessel-) have not touched at an enemy's port,
4. In case the papers should be false, or it
should appear that, contrary to the decla-
ration of the captain, the ship had touched
at an enemy's port, the double security shall
be immediately demandtd ofthe sureties,
and the amount paid into the public trea-
sury .
5. As soon a-, the security shall be settled,
the delivery of these ships may take place,
in presence of the persons appointed to su-
perintend it by the ministers of finance, who
shall take care that the owners do not un-
load any articles which may be presumed to
be English merchandize.
6. If it should be proved that the goods
are of English manufactures, or have come
from an enemy's port, they shall not only
be confiscated, for the benefit of the pulitc
treasury, bat the double security shall also
be levied, and the ship shall be obliged to
put to sea ; and the same shall, in case of
bad weather, have no shelter, except under
the strictest precautions.
7. All correspondence, jourrals, &e:
which comes in a neutral flag, shall be seiz-
ed and burnt.
8. All passengers or travellers, who can-
not prove that they do not come from (Ho
British Isles, shall be immediately seat out
of the kingdom.
9. All prohibitory regulations respecting
the commerce with England remain in full
force, in so far as they are not altered by
the present decree.
10. All who contravene the present regu-
lations shall be tried and punished for diso-
beying the laws.
It. Our minister offinar.ee is solely and
personally answerable for the strict executi-
on of these regulations. Our minister at
war shall place at his disposal such troops
and vessels as he may demand.
12. Our ministers of Marine, of finance,
and of war are charged each in as far as it
concerns him, with the execution of the
present decree.
Given on the 28th of August, 1807, being
the second year of our reign.
(Signed) LOUIS.
On the part of the king,
W.E. ROELL,
Secretary of State.
NEW.YORK, November 13.
Captain Dixon, arrived at this port yester-
day, iu 25 days from St. Thomas, informs
us, that that place was strictly blockaded,
and was then under martial law ; that alerm
guns wen* constantly firing; that the mar-
kets were glinted with every kind of pro-
duce ; aod that all intercourse with St. Croix
had ceased. One ofthe Danish cutters that
used to carry the mail from St. Croix to
St. Thomas has been taken by the British
ard sent into ' ntigua.
French " neio lavls of the Ocean."
It appears from the Decree repubib!*;1.
this evening, that the Freach emperor un-
derstands how to make " new law of the
Ocean" as the president has it, as well as
the king of England. As Mr. Armstrong
has obtained no unofficial explanations, we
must take the Decree as we find it. If any
vessel only touches at any English port, it is
good cause of capture. Under this decree
one of our neutral vessels from this port,
has been captured for having been first
captured by the English, and carried into
an English port mdreleased; she hav-
ing, however, two english passengers oa
board.
