TH : JEFFERSON. By’ the President, JAMES MADISON, Secretary of State. ——c:o: * From the jXuiional Intelligencer. Mr. Smith—An unfounded story, disho norable, i tuink. to iet, has been copied from nothcr paper into yoia’s, that colonel Burr had so mistaken my character, as to communicate tome schemes to subvert the government; and that after allowing inyseii to he the depositary cl bis secrets, 1 had had the treachery to bc trav him. ‘i he story ts not told exactly in * these words, nut such is the only impression, so iar as regards myself, it is calculated to make. Cos one! Burr never communicated any scheme of any kind to me. I never made a com munication to the executive, in relation to colo nel Butr. In common with others who some times associated with col Burr, I have heard, from him speculative opinions respecting our govern men, ; and 1 have sometimes spoken of these opinions in private circles, not with appn - i ballon. Hence 1 suppose it was conjectured, J that 1 might know enough to he a witness in J the case ol Boil man and Swartwout. I was summoned, but was not sworn, the attorney of the district being satisfied from a statement I gave him in court, written in court, I believe at his request, that my evidence could not be ma teria!. You will. I doubt not, do me the justice to insert this in your paper to-morrow. I am, sir, your obedient servant, March 19 /;, 1607. BEN. SIODDERT. RICHMOND, [ V.] March 27. We stop trie press, to mention the unex pected arrival in this e tv, of colonel Aaron Burr. He was conducted by captain Perkins, j of the federal army, the officer appointed to : this important duty, with a guard of seven | li; en. They stopped for the night at the Eagle ■ tavern. S W e arc, at present, unable to state any of ] j the particulars, relative to his apprehensions, | &c. but are informed, that the patty were | proceeding with their prisoner to the city of ’ Washington, and hud got as far on their way as Fredericksburg, where they were met by a Mr. Ford, a messenger front the President, who ordered him to this place totakc his tna! ; as the treason .title .cis with which colonel Burr is said to he charged, are supposed to have been perpetrated in this state—we presume at j lilannerhassetl’s island in Wood county. ; The Danish presses have been pmt under | | French control. Several Danish Journals j s having given Statements of successes obtained j I by the Russians in Poland, the French envoy > ’ at Copenhagen, complained to the Danish go- j ! vemmeat on the occasion ; and the king in j consequence tenewed is mandate of fourth ; October, 1799, which declares, that any of his ! j subjects publishing any statement, remark, or j | hint, injurious to the interests or wishes of any ! of the belligerent powers, in any journal within • his dominions, such journal shall be suppres- j sed, and the wiiter punished. The British and ! Russian ministers h .and insisted, in memorials, that all accounts favorable to Russia and her , I allies shall receive the same unrestrained pub- j ; drily in Denmark, . s the French bulletins ; or | ; the latter as well as the former shall he inter- ■ . dieted. P ivate lette-rs add. that the editors of ■ ; papers, though possessed of authentic accounts , unfavorable to the French, dared not publish j I them ; thou rii thev have published that, in the ■ affair of the 26th December, the French were j unsuccessful.
