We have been informed that an Express bassed through town last night with Dis- patches for Government, said to have been received by the late arrival at New York. FROM FRANCE. Captain Brevoor. of the Louisiana, ar- rived at Philadelphia from Bordeaux, reports, that he was followed down by an express, urging his immediate departure in conse- quence of advices from our minister at Pa- i it.

Captain Young, arrived at New-York, in 32 days from Port an Prince, informs that things remained nearly in the same state they were two months ago ; that between the two armies of Christophe and Petion, each consisting of nearly the same number of men, several skirmishes had taken place, but that no decisive action had been fought. NICHOLAS VANDYKE, Esi*. It appears, by letters fr m Washington, that Mr. Vandyke, the Federal representa- tive from Delaware in Congress, has come out with his maiden speech in defence of the Guri-boat bill. It is rumored this morning, that general Turreau, the minister of France, has de- manded that the Government of the United States shall shut their fort against the British. \fJackson .~^ CONGRESS. HOUSft OF REPRESENTATIVES. [TAKEN-for the FEDERAL GlZSTTE.f Washington, December »0. Proceedings this day. The bill from the senate for the building of gun-boats, was read the third time. Mr. Elliott spoke at great length against thupas- sage of the bill. He contended that the adoption of the gnu-boat system was a de- grading substitute of national defence. And Whence (he asked) came the original propo- sition ? From what strange fountan had des- cended this copious, this overwhelming tor ment of national profusion, degradation & destruction, within these two or three years ? It was not. (he said) difficult to discover : a strange passion for gun-boats had seized upon one of the great departments of the government. Their >bjeet (he remarked; was proper and patriotic ; but no arguments had been adduced to prove that they were efficient measures either for the purposes of protection or of defence. Mr. Elliott spoke up ^ards two hours.— He was followed by Messrs. Sloan, Fisk, Dana, Nicholas, Cook, Up'iam, Burwell,, Vandyke, and Cro^ninshield, in favor of the jbill ; and by Messrs. Randolph, and Qumcey, against it. The debate entirely related to the utility and efficiency of gun- boats. The question was about to be taken by ayes and nays, when a motion was made to adjourn, which was carried, ayes 66, navs 66. Port of Baltimore. CLEARED, Ship Dumfries, Hancock, Liverpool Schr.

Mr. .Daviess, in his ' View of the Presi- dent's conduct concerning the conspiracy of the year, 1806, p. 24' letter to Mr. Madi- son tells the secretary, that the informati- on he had received, had convinced him that the Mexican provinces and the Ameri- can possessions on the Mississippi, with the Florida~, were in the view of the conspira- tors to form one kingdom—but that neither Burr nor Wilkinson was to be the monarch. ' When I beard this (says Mr. D.) MO- REAU instantly occurred to my mind : and I have heard this day that he is to be here this fall, and go down by «ay of Or- leans, and round to Philadelphia." This letter bears date. ' Near Brechenridge court honse, (Kentucky.) 14th August, 1806,' and is it least a hint to induce a -watchful govern- ment to keep an eye upon the movements of this military man.

December 11 d4t Jonn HaS'lam, VETERINARY SURGEON, Or FAR iU Eii, No 41, Jones street, Old Totxtn, Continues to offer Ins professional services to the citizens of Baltimore, and informs them that he has opened a Shop, in the above street, for the Shoeing of Horses feet, accord, ing to the modem improved plan ; that is on 1 In' following principle ; The Frog of the foot never to be pared, to bear^euual weight with the shoe, and the shoe to be forged in such a manner as to bear a level surface on the ground and at the same time a sufficient space beUvceen the shoe and sole of the foot. It would appear, at first thought that the frog pressing on t!ie ground, would injure the horse ; but when we consider the shape, situ- ation, quality and composition of tlie frog, together with its connection with the exter- na! and intern.d parts of the foot, we must ac- knowledge it was placed therefor most es- sential purposes. It is elastic, andthe shape of a wedge, convex, and placed in the centre of the heels. This wedi/e like shape, and convexity must b« intended for some purpose, and that is to keep the heels expanded, which operation takes place in the following manner; allow the frog to press on the ground, and when- ever the horse sets his'foot down, the frog as- cends, t tat is, it rises u. . between the heel3 ; when he takes it up, the frog descends and by this alternate motion the heels ar« preserv eil expanded The toot forms half.a circle, which is t-e naiural sbapi- of a colt's toot, and. a properelastic motion is kept up in the part* composing the heels—Mwm, the frog, when suffered to lo press on the gruonrl, prevents the horse from slipping and by the its elaslic quality acts as > spang. , It is found by experience that a perpetual press :re may be given to a living substance, and it will be attended with no inconvenience, when a partial* pressure will cause m ist ex- quisite pain. This is demonstrated in a person whose liv- ing is by the hammer ; he feels no inconve- nience ; when a person, whose hand is soft, begins to work with the hammer for a little tim<, he feels great pain The same is also the case with the frog of the horse's foot, though it is cut and raised from the ground, as it is the common practice, and not admitted to press on an even surface, it will meet with pressure on gravelly gorund, or an, uneven surface ; therefore it is better it should have perpetual or constant pressure, Indepeudr.nt of the reasonable appearance of the above theory, no one has cause for fear in the. practice. It has been adopted for several yenrs past at the Veterinary College of London, and in numerous instances in this city, by my direction, with the most salutary nlfecls. The plan of Shoeing in frcst differs from the plan in warmer weather It is expected these few observations are sufficient, but any further exp anation will be given by calling on me * What I mean by partial pressure, is a press- ure sometimes. _ December U. ________ 2aw2wjj__ Charles Vaiiette, CONFECTIONER ijf CORDIAL DISTIL- LER, No 52, Market-strfet, HAS Just received from Madeira, a quan- tit) of FRESH CITRON-------Also, from the West Indies, a fresh supply of Green Sweet- Meats, viz : Preserved Ginger, do D warf V ellow Oranges, do Pine Apples, do Green Linns, do do I.cmmons, do do Oranges, Gouy.ive Jelly-, &c. &c.
