Naples, 9th March, 1810.
The Minister of Foreign Affairs of
his Majesty the King cf the Two
Sicilies, to Mr. T. Ihvnmet Con
sul of the United State,
ca.
Sir,
I have laid before his Majesty the
repeated demands which you have
addressed to me in hclialt of the r. -
merican citizens and vessels lying i-
the ports of his kingdom,
jesty cannot contemplate
pain the little consonance which ap
pears to him to exist between your
solicitations and the principles adopt
ed by.the government of the United
States which are contained in the
provisions of the act ol the first ot
March of the past year, operating
against the commerce of France and
that of those states leagued with her
in the political system of the French
empire
After that act, you ought not to be
surprized, sir, at the vigorous mea
sures which his Majesty the King has
been compelled, to adopt against the
vessels of your nation laden with pro
hibited merchandize.
With respect to the Americans
who compose the crews of the con
fiscated vessels, lus Majesty has di
rected his minister of the marine
to procure passages for them, in or
,dtr that they may return to Ameri
.ca.
I flatter myself, sir, that the alte
rations which may take place in th

o.f Commons to imprison the people
of England. Presuming our read
ers are anxious to learn the cause
which gave rise to the letter of the
Baronet ; we have collected the fol-j
lowing information from the accounts
received at New-York. A Mr.
John Gale Jones, it appears, wrote
and published certain strictures on
the pr oceedings of the House, & a few
of its members. Being cited to appear
before that tribunal, he acknowledg
ed himself the author of the re
marks in question ; ami stated, that
he was not actuated by any sense of
disrespect to the privileges of the
House, or the persons of any of its
members individually—that he had
,110 moMv". in mentioning the names
:f Ameri- c f tne members alluded to, save that
they happened to be connected with
a subject of public discussion—Sc that
lie alivavs considered it the privilege
of every Englishman, to animadvert
on public measures, and the conduct
A oublic men. Mr. Jones was im-
lis Ma-i;nediatelv committed to New-Gate
without j ai i. Sir Francis Burdett on the 12tli
March, after denying the right ol
the House of Commons to commit
Mr. Jones, moved that he be dis
charged—but his motion was nega
tived by a majority of 139. It was
on this occasion, that he addressed
his constituents through the medium
f Cobbets Register of the 24th
March, which lesulted in his confine
ment. The affair of the unhappy
Baronet must excite the strongest in
terest in every generous mind. Hi
has long been marked for his conspi
cuous opposition in the councils oi
England—for his noble stand against
their encroachments and trespass
on individual liberty. His spirited
address to his constituents—his con
finement in the Tower, must call
to mind the spirit and immortal suf
ferings of the Russels and Sidneys inj)
former times. Sir Francis has for
'several years past been characterized
for his probity—for his elevation a-
bove the sordid and avaricious views
of the British Ministry. The peru-

arrived at this port on Monday last.
Captain Iloyt politely furnished us
with the following intelligence.
That it was the opinion of the Bri

Fresh provisons of all kinds are
exceedingly scarce and high ; fresh
beef, one dollar per pound ; candles
forty-five cents per pound ; eggs one
dollar per dozen ; and other articles
proportionally dear.
