T.iuse rhetorical flourishes and po- lisred invectives, wnh which your lett . rs abound, are perfect imitations oi Mr. Canning’s school, which lias yubstitilted such balderdash lor the utatelv and respectable garb, in which until this day, diplomacy, however host ile, was invaribly cloathed. When, besides the utter success of their m ini s the unfortunate people ol En gland, in a short lapse of disaster,were deprived of Mr. Pitt, Fox, Nelson, Cornwallis and Thurlow, fate seem ed to have declared against them, and also ever since, distraction, ig- norace and malversation have pos sessed a cabinet heretofore filled with talents, integrity, and public spirit. One of the last struggles of the last of these administrations was to dis patch yqu to this country, with in structions, which, it cannot be tpies- tioned, you have rigidly conformed to. The result is what must have been desired, though perhaps was scarcely expected by the king your master, and his late ministers.

Merry, an atrabilious and inch droit old man, to whom it was said Mr. Jefferson had been ungracious (at least Mis tress Merry said so) was received in Philadelphia with a hospitality, ini', nded to compensate for the rude ness he complained of at Wash ington. Mr. Liston was a great fa vorite, and Mr. Erskinc was always \v loomed with a kindness much n>.or than merely polite. You are the first British minister from whom the hospitalities of Philadelphia hav bei n withheld, and you are personally the best entitled to them. You must therefore ascribe the comparative isolation from society in yhich vou are suffered to live in this metropo lis, notwithstanding the elegance of your retinue and manners, to that feeling of unanimous indignation a- gainst your employers which the dis closure ol your correspondence has roused. Though you came fortified with letters of introduction and all the attractions calculated to make your company desirable, yet vou can not but applaud this repulsive nati onality, however disagreeable you may find its 1 ff ets.

Loud, loud blows tiie wind on the moor, And dull is my path through the snow ; An out-cast, unfrended and poor, O’er the taee of the wide world I go. Hush, hush my sweet babe ! for thy cry Is more than my anguish can bear ; O God ! will thy merciful eye Not look on my frantic despair r At the door of the rich man I knocked, Forplcmv was written tlierton ; But the rich man my poverty 1110c keel, And, tauntingly, bade me begone. Cold, cold is tin bosom, O clay ! But colder the hard heart ol pride; No tear tor tue w retched have they, Who sail on prosperity’s tide. The passenger witness’d my grief, And he toid nie he pitied my sigh; But 1 spurn’d at Ins proffer’d rebel, For lewd was the glance of his eye. My steps by a banquet-house pass’d, Where guests entered joyous ond free ; I shrank at the wintry blast, But there was no entrance for me. Thro’the night and the storm, and the cold, Must I and my little one roam ; But ’ere many moments are told, Shall we both reach a last quiet home. Cease, baby, thy screaming so wild. There !—creep to this half frozen breast: And now will the mother and child, Lie down in the deep snow to rest ODE TO PITY.

Though mow appointed by the President and.remote, and of less immediate inter* standing committee, from among : cst , than the transactions in Germa- such disinterested persons as may| nv , Spain and Holland, they never*' thclcss bear the same revolution, ry stamp and character, which distin guish, throughout every part ol he continent, the commencement of .he nineteenth century. Bonaparte, in- ‘ deed, the scourge ot so many nati ons, has not been the instrument of the deposition of Gustavus the I Vth, which appears to have been effect, d dtogether bv internal and national causes. We may compassionate the individual fate of that unfortunate, prince ; but we must impartially con fess the urgency and force of that po litical necessity which produced hi». fall. It was not, indeed, so much ambition of his uncle, the duke of Sudermania, as the series of errors' tnd calamities that marked Gusta- vus’s government, which have pla ced Charles the XII Ith on the throne of his nephew. History does not re-, cord any revolution which has been effected with so little violence, oppo sition, or resistance. The nation weary of the mal-administration of its sovereign, seems unanimously to have withdrawn their allegiance to' his person, and to have called his uncle to assume the first place in the state. Gustavus, universally aban doned, is already forgotten. So com-' pletcly, indeed, is he destitute of supporters, friends, or adherents; that it is probable, in him, the asser tion of the prisons and graves of Kings being always contiguous, will not be verified orrtalized. His ink significance secures him from further persecution, and will induce the s.a es of Sweden to a'low him to re side as an individual without the li mits of the Swedish dominions. If, however, Cnarles the XUIth has found it so easy to ascend the. throne, he seems to have experien* ced, and he is likely to meet the most serious obstacles in maintaining tin Prerogatives of the crown, and still more in extricating the country trom that abyss of misfortune, into vhich the imprudent pertinacity of his predecessor has plunged it. E- ven the succession to the sovereign ty itself, is up to die present time un ascertained and uncertain. The new king, declining in years and desti tute of issue, may say of the states as Macbeth safd to the witches— “ Upon my head they placed a fruit less crown, .4 A “ And put a barren sceptre in my gripe.” In order to remedy this extraor dinary evil a Prince of Holstein Au- gustenboujff, collaterally related to the reigning Swedish’ House, has been solemnly invited to accept the crown, on the demise of his present majesty. Chr.stian Augustus, on whom this choice has fallen, is only a soldier of fortune, in the sen Jce of Denmark ; his elder brother Fre-* derick, the reigning Duke, having married a sister of Frederick the Vlth, & a niece of George the 11 Id.

Bv order, JOHN BREWER, Clerk. Extract of a le tter from Liverpool. “ " e have only time to advise you, that it has this day been settled bv his Majesty’s Privy Council, that neu tral ships, with cargoes taken on board in the United States, may after land ing, and reloading t leir cargoes, al- 30 ter their national t haracters, at an in termediate port, being friendly, anti proceed to ports in Great Britain or peace shall be re-established betwuih the crowns of Denmark and Sweden. That peace cannot, indeed, be m all probability, either very remote, or impeded by any serious difficul ties ; but a far more arduous and! painful task for the new Swedish' king, is to obtain from Russia such terms as may leave to him and to his people, any shadow of security or of independence. Sweden in 1809, presents, indeed, only the emaciated remains of departed power & great ness. Scarcely a century ago, in in 1T09, before the battle of Pulto-
