The London ministerial paper? con tain paragraphs advocating' the propri ety, anirf even necessity, of the interfer ence of Great'Britain in favour of irpain against her colonies in South-America; and it is even mentioned that an egage fnent, to (hat effect, has been entered ltjt<> between the two powers. We this day give as many extracts as our time ami limits will permit,,from papers received at the Merchants’ Cof fee House. Extractor a letter from William Mur dock. esq. to a mercantile house in this city, dated London, Aug. 25. “There are lio freights here lor Ame ricah or any other ships; ami all the 4- merican vessels that come here return in ballast, or nearly so. The produc tions gencually in Europe have been ve ry gi’eut. Flour here is now 43 .to 50s, perbarrel Jlhundantj and in prospect the most pfenlilui harvest ever remembered.

The demand for cotton,this week has hech very limited, and the market as rcrnavkuitly inactive as it was brisk the preceding one; the-dealers having free- 1 ly supplied themselves during the last fortnight; prices of jdl descriptions, however; imii'ntairi the last prices pretty steadily; in shine instances, induced, a* small deejine has been submitted to in Boweds, but no material reduction is apprehended. The sa’es of the week a ' mount to 1800 bags. * ( ♦ August 28. Lord Amherst and Bonaparte. The t -teaar, which in consequence of 1 the loss of the Alceste frigate, recently brought home Lord Amherst and las suite from Batavia, is the bearer of the latest intelligence from St. Helena, relative to (bohealth ami manner of living of "the Ex-Emperor of France. The Ctesar ha ving occasion to touch at St, jlclena, lord Amherst expressed a desire to.be introduced to Bonaparte, andan -spite of some obstacles which preheated ‘them selves, bis lord ship, with capt. Maxwell and Mr. Lynn, suigeon of the, Alct ste, 'was allowed to wait upon him.. On the 3d of duly, lord A.'was ushered into Bo naparte’s presence at Longwood,.whilst’' capt. M. and the'surgeon waited in an anti-chamber. It was nut long before, those officers were desired to join.’ There was nothing in ‘the appearance of Bona parte which in the least indicated ill healths on the contrary he looked well and wap less bloated than ordinary, in his conversation with the party, his ques tions were put with the usual rapidity; indeed they followed each other in such quick succession, that answers could on ly be given to those Avlncb-anpcarcd most marked and important. "With Jiis gen-i eral curiosity, lie naparte inquired ot the officers what stations they filled on hoard the ship, and on leanng (hat Mr. Lynn was the surgeon, he inquired what sys tem ot pharmacy he pursued. “That depends.upon circumstances,” replied the surgeon. “I hope,” ruplied-the ge neral, “it is any other than that practi sed in >this island; for here we hove the same thing over and over again-—bleed ing and calomel forever.” The conver sation taking a turn on .the mission of. Lord A. to China, his lordship related .the cause of itsia.ilurejwhich he ascribed to the necessity imposed,upon.Tim by the emperor of smiting the ground nineteen times with his forehead; an indignity, which his lord ship intimated could not be submitted to. Here Bonaparte's an swer showed the man—“lndeed! Now had it suited my policy to send an am bassador to the emperor of China,! should have instructed him to kiss his great toe; and if that would not do, he might if re quired, salute a more offensive paid, pro vided my object could be attained.” In the course of conversation Bona parte said lie knew of no law winch gave j thepowers of Europe the right of detaining him,a prisoner at St. Helena or else where; and strongly urged the propriety of his .present situation being taken into consideration by the crowned heads of Europe. Notwithstanding his disap pointments, he still affects great reli ance on the justice of the Prince Regent, of England, when unconnected with na-: tioual policy and the influence of min isters; and, with -this impression on his mind, he expressed an anxious widb that lord Amherst would be the bearer of a letterdfrom him to his royal highness, which had been prepared some time, with the intention of forwarding it to England. VVc have reason to believe we are cor rect in stating, that his lordship under took to deliver the letter in question. It is said to be coached in the most respect-, ful terms; but discovers a sereness thro’- out oa account of the unnecessary re straints he alledges that he is. made to undergo. The officers of -the Atoeste faoad that he can have tbeoange of the i, whole Island infiis exercise ofriJSng, IS- I ving or walking, provided he will allow 1 a British to attend him; but to thtt be objects. As it is, he may extend his walks about 12 miles, but then he is j liable to meet in his perambulations Bri tish sentinels at various points, who ne- ' ver fail to present arms to him. Madame < Bertrand was seen by the British officers, 1 - and the impression made upon them was, that she was a very handsome and cle ver woman. Philadelphia, Oct. 18. i The Latest from England, By the fine fast sailing ship Lancas- | ter, captain West, arrived at this port \ lasi evening, in 31 days from Liverpool, | the editors of the Freeman’s Journal have , received London papers to the fcth, and Liverpool to the 10th September, 12 days ] the latest from the continent —The late | hour at which we have received these pa pers, makes it ii.ipossib!e«togive but a ve ry imperfect and brief summary of tlieir contents. 1 v The King of the Netherlands has ap- I pointed Commissioners to negociute a Commercial'!*rcaty with America. The conferences have been opened at the Hague. ‘ t ( A private letter from Paris, dated ( September 5, states that serious troubles had broken put at Lyons, but had entire- s ly subsided, and the marsh of the troops » countermanded. Marshal Marmonthat! 1 been appointed'to the command of tly;. <■ 19th Military Division, of which Lyons £ was,to be the head-quarters. , Another private letter, but without I date, stated that “an alarming insurrec- < tion had broken out at Lyons, equalling I in atrocity and violence, the most san- i gninary scenes of the revolution. The ’ streets are represented as streaming with 1 blood, and heaped with dead bodies.” An advance from 7$ to 10 per cent, pn 1 every article nf cotton manufactures, has taken place at Manchester, and is readi- 1 ly obtained. The emperor Alexander was on the j eveofleavjng St. Petersburg for eighteen months, on a tour of inspection through 3 the southern provinces of his immense dominions, i i The difference between the Turks and Russians are likely to be amicably set- 1 tied, and a,negotiation is said to be on I foot for engaging -the sublime Porte to ptfndt the free passage of tlie Darclanel- < les to all vessels paying a moderate duty, i Sir J.

' j London, Sept. 8.- I Lord Exmouth, it is said, is appointed < commander in chid - at Plymouth, in the ] room of the late Sir J. T. Duckworth, i Liverpool, September 8. J ; The accounts from all parts of the! i cquntry, contain* the most cheerful Intel- i ligence of tire state of the crops, and the ! propitious weather whidi the country: has generally enjoyed, during the last week, for leaping and securing the har vest. We are also glad tb observe from tlie same accounts, that the Iron, the Woollen, the Cotton, (he Leather, the • Soap and the Candle manufactures, are , all rapidly increasing. Every loom, eve ry factory almost in the kingdom, em- ' ploys more men, or gives them higher pay than it did six months ago Com merce equally Increases throughout our ports. 1 lie harvest in this neighborhood has partially commenced; and from the very line warm weather we had during the last week, we suppose that it will become general in this neighborhood and Chesh ire, in the course of the present week. We are happy to observe, the demand for cotton in uur market, still continues very brisk; the sales during the last fortnight, amount to about 30,000 bags. September 10. There have been imported into Liver pool, from the United States of America, between the Ist September, 1816, and the Ist September 1817, not less than ' 493,514 barrels of flour, which, together with the grain brought from the same country, would be sufficient to load 2786 vessels of l6t) tons each. Baltimore, Oct. 13. The ship Dumfries, capt. Hillert, ar rived at this port yestmla/, brings Li verpool papers of later dates than any heretofore recived, being to September : 3d. We have been favoured with a'pe rusal of several of these papers, and find diem entirely destitute of interest—con taining nothing worth extracting. The crops in England, as has been an nounced in previous papers, are uncom monly promising, and a still greater de pression in the price of produce gene * rally is anticipated; and ir is confidently asserted that the ports for the reception of grain will be closed on the 15th prox imo. . Flour was selling at 48 to 50 shillings —Upland cotton, ls 6d to Is 9d—Virgi nia tobacco, 6d to 9d per lb. We have been favoured with the fol lowing extracts of letters from the house of Hughes, Duncan Sf co. Liverpool, Sept. I.

TO THE PUBLIC. _ On the 15th of September I sailed from Nassau, N. P. bound to Bamcoa, laden with goods to the amount of one thou sand two hundred dollars, (this can ea sily be proved by my papers and the do cuments of the custom-house.) On the £7th of the same month, arrived on the coast of Cuba, at 5 p. m. discovered a fishing boat with two men making to wards us, and when at hailing distance, they enquired where 1 was bound ty, and being informed that I was going to Barracua, they supplicated me to give them a passage, observing that they were inhabitants of that place, and that thek boatwas leaky,and about sinking. I,urged by h. ununity, gave them passage, On the 28th, at 4 a.m. being tome east of Panto Mnlas, I Was taken by a schooner from Amelia, named Serra, commanded by Edward Fennel, and owned by Morrison ot that place. VVe were boarded with: out any kind of respect to the Hag of his Britannic Majesty, and without exam ining the papers commenced plundering. I was rubbed of my vVatch, 14 dollars and in y clothes. At 8 a.m. the two ves vessela were anchored at a pla6e named Narango. These pirates proceeded to examine my napers, after which they de cided on sending my crew on This was immediately done, however not .before my poor fellows had been robbed of all they had. When they were land ed on the beach, three muskets were fir ed at them for the purpose of forcing them to retire in the woods. At the place where we bad anchored there was-a Spa nish schooner laden with tobacco, which was aUfi taken, two vessels were then ordered to the Island of Amalia, and es corted by the privateer. On the 4th of October, as we were about entering the harbor of the above mentioned. We were boarded by the boat of the United States brig Saranac, John Eaton, Esq. comman der, which ordered ns along side of the brie. The captain,after being informed oft! ie circumstance* which had brought us to that port, sent off a boat to order the nrivatear along side also. The pi rates were arrested and put on board oi the Saranac, and on the 6th, the Two Brothers wert ordered to Savannah, with an officer, five men, the captain of the privateer, and one of his sailors. When watering on Jeykil Island, the captain made his escape The same privateer, in her cruise be .forii the last, hai| robbed from on boar'. • 1
