It seems extraordinary that any num, one half to be paid in ad- person should deny that Bonaparte has been the first to condemn his commercial restrictions, and to con fess that they have utterly failed in producing the effect he intended.— 55 On one and the same day he opens jHHtDOEVILlE PRICE CURRENT hU pomf , he i mpormkm of ,h„se Cotton, • • 12 i-2 ^.'commodities which he cannot pro cure but from the Power whose Salt, Iron, Corn, JVhtat, 1 50 to 3 50 1 combined to assist the French sti' exist in all their strength.

It was only when in the dark ages, superstition attempted the chains which degraded Rome wished to rivet, that they even seem- d to forget their freedom, which they never relinquished, and that the same spirit dared the pride of Spain, and generously maintained the pub ic liberties. But prosperity has done for Holland, what its proudest etie- old waratime law, he will find him ^jes could not accomplish. The o- self completely mistaken. He has 1 said that from and after the 1st No vember, his decrees are revoked, and our government, taking notice that the enemy has announced his decrees to he no longer in force from and after the first of November, may notify, that from the 1st of Nov r, our orders in council, adopted in consequence of those decrees, will cease.” Some misapprehension seems to have taken place with respect to the ration of one of the immortal sons >f freedom, that of Valckenar, thus addresses them. “Ourpatriots and fathers expected every thing from concord and peace.

It was supposed that the 2d article of the decree, ordering confiscation, if the declarations con cerning the species or qualities of goods were false, meant confiscation if it should be found that the goods were British. The decree, as we observed on Saturday, might in that case as well not have been issued, for the most of the goods allowed to be imported are British. But the mean ing of the second article of the de cree is, that goods are to be confisca ted if false declarations he given ol their species or qualities ; for in stance, if Levant Cottons, which are to pay a higher duty, be attempted to be imported as Brazil cotton ; or if hyson or green teas, which are to pay a tax of nine or six hundred francs be attempted to be introduced under the names of common teas, which are to pay only 1 SO francs. Fresh disturbances have broken out in the Tyrol. Saturday a Cabinet Council was held at the Foreign Office. The subject of deliberation was supposed to relate to Bonaparte’s late Decree.

The French have marched large armies into Spain. The armies destined a- gainst Portugal have reached that country. A siege has been laid a gainst the fortress on the frontiers, which was the most formidable. It has been surrendered. The French and English have interest in the pre possessions of mankind, and they have employed them. The first have refuted every charge against themselves by their military glory. It is not easy to trace every move ment of such vast armies, or to no tice the arrangements which display the wisdom of every moment. The great event has been the display of such men the military ardor of French troops, From Washington we learn that and the pride of their conquests.

Search your an nals. Two vices have always been fatal to great cities ; their avarice and their indolence. The Gauls victorious, are industrious ; despis ing wealth, they prefer glory. Not inferior to you in any thing else, they have not sloth or avarice. I remem ber when young, that as they pas sed, two great men of Friczland were shewn to me. Both were noble, both eloquent,both eminent, bodi virtuous, and both in high offices of state. It was known that they were warmly opposed in their judgement respecting public measures. Why did not this discord ruin Friezland ? Because it was the struggle of their virtue. When in the public councils, like the ancient Romans, as soon as they en tered, they laid aside their prejudi ces as they did their cloaks, and clo thed only with the love of the public happiness they united with their bre thren in a sacred regard to the pul) lie good ” Thus spake in 1748, one of the greatest scholars of which Europe could boast. Holland no longer impresses her coin with the wallet. The arms of France are on one face, but the emblems of liberty are not on the other. Some memorable events in Europe are not such as are favorable to the hopes of free enquiry upon political subjects, whatever promises are made to scivncc. The decree of the French emperor respecting the press, is a melancholy event. The necessity of pursuing the press for the freedom which it indulges, as in the case of Cobbett in England, upon the best plea is an alarm ; and the confine ment of a Jew at Berlin, for his writ ings may lead to some painful anti cipations.

The Russian! had not only taken possession of the northern provinces in one form, hut and supplied him with GOO skeins of they had published their code of laws, metallic substances in that place. The hopes of commerce are not a bandoned. Wc learn that at Scituate sixteen ships have been built in this season. A ship was lately launched at Haverhill, one at Charlestown, and another, at Boston, besides those at the mouth of the Merrimac. The prospects of ample supplies of hemp from the interior, if that article be needed ; the many discoveries of various metallic substances in even' part of our conntry, and the abun dance of the best timber for every use in naval architecture, are circumstan ces recollected with most pleasing emotions. The roads every year ex tend and improve, and we learn from lower Canada that they are ready to and obliged the inhabitants to take the natural oaths, and had begun a reformation in the university of Ba- charest,by adding anew professorship in the institution of mathematics, medicine and botany, besides the in troduction of the German and Rus sian languages.

The systems of pillage which the petty princes have indulged, had pro duced much confusion, so that it was expected that the Grand Vizier could not make a serious attempt to check the Russians before they should reach Adrianople.—The population of Adrianople has been given at 130,000, of whom one quarter part were Greeks. Philippoiis is north west from Adrianopoles, and about as far distant from it as this last city is from Constantinople, & has a quarter part of its inhabitants, of whom half are Greeks. Philippoiis is about 5 degrees of less west longitude than the capital of Turkey, upon less than 2 degrees of greater north latitude. We can collect from the accounts ist as our country can furnish, we have time to record, and genius and truth to' explain to posterity their worth, we can bless the memory of is not for us to say, whether this glorv is gained by their overwhelm ing numbers, the zeal of the troops, or the discipline they practise, or how far these are combined. The history of the event decided that the end of the contest has been gained in victory. Some attempts have been made to check the French, and with various success, in less decisive ac lions, but the causes which have called, and the notice has been given to the president from the highest au thority. The new diplomatic system is not fully explained but the lan guage is pacific. At this season of the year we continue to hear from our literary institutions They cer- lainiy increase in number and in fa vor, and from every portion of oui country we have favorable accounts )f the exhibitions which are said to to recollect the ample documents which will be supplied for the histo ry of arts, and among the late pub lications wc notice with pleasure Mr. Thomas’ history of printing. The blessingsfrom this art are well known. The introduction of it into America most interesting event. The progress is most important, as with it all the knowledge and hopes of the country did depend. The labour in combining the many facts, as well as in collecting them, must have been immense, and the success has been equal to the zeal with which the ob ject has been regarded. It is to be hoped that the reward will be sure in a just tribute to the talents which .jave been employed, and by arnlep we have seen dated Vienna, no evi dence that the Austrians are in any system of warfare with the Turks.
