Saturday afternoon, the chairman and sub commute of the American merchants had a m eting with the president of the boardof trade, when his lordship (Bathurst) communicated to them the determination of ministers in re gard to the navigation of neutral flags under the present systpm of blockade. Mr. Sansom, the chairman, immediately af ter Jcaving-the treasury, convened a meeting of the committee of American merchants, and made the following report on the subject of the recent orders in council:— *• London Tavern. November 21. “ That American vessels cannot sail in any instance direct from the ports of the U. States to any port of the enemy in Europe. Ameri can vessels may proceed from the ports of the United States to the ports of the colonies be longing to-the enemy, and direct back to the ports of the United States. The order does riot prohibit them from going direct from the ports of this kingdom to the colonial ports in the West-lndia islandr belonging to the ene mv ; and it is not intended to prevent them from proceeding from this kingdom with colo nial produce to the enemy’s ports, whenever parliament Shull have decided on the duties to be imaosecl on such exportation. ”A nerican vessels may continue to trade from the ports of this kingdom to the ports of the en e .ny, and from the ports of the enemy to this hmgdom, and from the portsofhis majesty’s al ii.l-, to the enemy’s.ports, but not ftom tlieen in ’s to the ports of his majesty’s allies direct, nor from America to the ports of his majesty’s allies, with colonial produce. “ There is reason to believe that an order in council will issue, regulating the periods at which notice shall be considered to hate been received of the orders in council, of 11th in stant, in the United States of America, by w hich regulation, vessels that shall have clear ed. or shall clear out from any port in Amer ica. before the 20'h of January next, shall be considered to have cleared out before notice of the order ; and vessels which shall clear out between the 20th January and the 1 Oth of Feb ruary, will Ire liable to be detained, subject tc the question, whether they had began to be lad en before notice had arrived at the port from whence they sailed. From the 10th of Feb ruary all Ymei iean vessels wiiFbe considered as having begun to lade after notice, and will thereby be subject to the provisions of the a foresaid orders. Certificates of origin will not be required to he delivered up. which may. be on board vessels which shall have sailed previous to the notice of this qfdcr, at the port they sailed from. “ There is also reason to believe, that no doty is intended to be hud on the re exportation of any articles which are the produce of the sod of neutral nations, with the exception of cot ton ; and that,the trade between this country ami ‘.be ports of the enemy’s colonies, by iteit t 1 .is, will be regula'ed by licence, and confined to tne export of British manufactures, until the meeting of p arliament ; and that the trade be tween this country, by neutrals, with the colo nies of Ojie ene nv in the Wcst-lndics and South America, w H lie placed on ‘he same footing. John Okay, Secretary ” November 26. Hamburgh papers have been received to the 1i h inst. It is said, in an a* icle from these p pers, that Sebastiani, the French minister, h and quilted Constantinople, in consequence of a i mange in the polities of the Sublime Pure If this important c ent should actually have happened, it may le.'.d to tery f.ivoruole esuits at v ihe present critical moment. We must Wait lor me confirmation of this rumor. November 27. Intelligence was yesterday teceivccj that a mtmbcrVuf American ships, which were about to enter the Fexel, were stopped lay our block ading squadron, huid received the “ warning” which tiie iate.orders of council prescribe. In consequence of which warning, the Americans direct ed their coin so tor c.ngland; but it is S!. that lest they sirouid not follow that course, and come into an En lish port, a Iri gate was sent to looK. after hem. This state ment, if correct, is a very clear expression in deed'of the jealousy entertained as to the dis position of the Americans to comply with our order of council. intelligence from Lisbon of the 12th, and from the mouth of the Tagus of the Istli inst. arrived yesterday The most important fact, of which we have become possessed by these arrivals is, that the Russian fleet, consisting of seven sail of the line and thtee frigates, had, previous to tne 12,h, entered the Tagus in two divisions. Somp accounts say, that they pro ceeded under false colors, having entered the harbor under the di-guise of the /latisli flag. If this latter circumstance be correctly stated, the emperor Alexander must, since his inti mate acquaintance wish the Corsican, have deeply studied in the school of hypocrisy.. Not long since, we believe, a request was made to our government, that the Russian squadron might be permit ed to winte, in a British port; and there is no,,- oo much i eason to feu l- , that tin; proposal was nilide not in siuceify, but for lbe purpose of thriving our government oiT their guard, in order to e table tiie Russians toco opcrnle with ll.•■ i ten i, in the peiiidi fjiis designs so- nec bv /.onupurie agah.st the kingdom of Portugal. IF this exp -diem it was probably consumed, rite enemy would be able to possess thern-eh -s id 111 • I'd. ugues:; navy, and prevent the mediated emigration of the court ot Lisbon to the Bi izii;,. l.ord Stangford ~n,l \ir.

TILE CANADIANS. from the 11 .\on n Star” ( jiubikhcd Bt Danville f Vermont of December 21. We have delayed to publish our information respecting the feelings of the Canadians on the question of war between the United states and Britain, lest we should favour a*'immediate rupture. \Vc cannot for such considerations preserve a longer silence since vre draw our in formation, not from a tew ii dividuuls but Horn the concurrence ofa ! i icspectable characters who are frequently visiting this place from Lower Canada. We cap state with confidence, that, except their newspapers, which are pub lished under the eye of the provincial govern ment, and which teem against the U. States, for the double purpose of blinding the Can adians and meriting the favour of his majesty, George the third, on the question of war, is a unanimity among the Canadians against Britain as great as that among the people of the United States at the commencement of the revolution. The Canadians feel a pride in the American name) and are waiting the fa vourable crisis for exchanging the appellation , of subjects —a softer name of servitude which they brook indignantly—for that of independent freemen , an honor to which they aie not insen sible. We predict, on sources ot information to be relied on, and we call our readers to remember in the event of war, which may God avert, the conquest of Canada will be the fruit of her own efforts, and will not require the aid of a single , man or cent on the part of the United States. The Canadians already cease to regard with confidence the effusions of their gazettes on the approaching rupture Their goals are filled and running over with subjects arrested for disaf fection to orders for arraying them in a warlike posture against America, and republican papets circulate to a considerable extent in both pro \ vinccs. SAVANNAH, Thursday Evening, January 23, 180S. V Ihe citizens of Baltimore have been long ce lebrated for their spirit of euterpri ze—should they, as it is.,idte\e*they will, embark apart j of tlteir large capitals iti establishing tftanufaC toriewof cotton and wool, there is every pros | pect of a branch of commerce opening to this ; Country which was not thought of, peril tps, j when.the embargo was laid on. It Is well’ f k-.own, that by muck the largest, part of the cotton that was spun in England, was sent to the continent in yarn, where it was manufac tured into cloth. As this business is now totally cut.off front England, nothing seems to prevent its being transferred to the United States, but a disposition to undertake it. VVe have the finest streams in the world, to erect mills on—thous ands of hands can now be collected to carry them on—models of all the machines, with their latest improvements, aye in our possession—one of (the staple articles can be had at a price, per haps, not by. one-third as. dear as the English manufacturer paid for it, and our country ovei flows with provisions. With these advantage., it wouid .tea wonder f the emigiitued citizen: of Marti nd, shou and they proceed i.> the busi ness, do not succeed co an extent little thought o heretofore. It is a thing most certain, that ’ is. out of the power of ali tne machines that ca be erected for many years, to-glut the call id-, cotton vam on the continent of Fair me, and tin qua'.ti y wanted fi.f* home consumption will be considerable— City Gaz. During our .revolutionary war, the ladies vied with-the.oilier sex in true patriotism.— 1 Hey with cheerfulness denied themselves tit* use cl tea, and those oilier delicacies and insu res to which they had been accusto cd, but w hich the patriots ol that clay thought it the I duty and inteest ul the nation to abstain from ! Instead of yards and o her idle amusements. they employed their rime at the spinning wheel , and other branches of domestic manufacture. I bitch conduct was praise-worthy in the highest [degree; and it is with-pleasure learned, now I our cotmtty is again threatened with war, that ; the ladies of this district are about following aw example so worthy of-imitation. .Ladies of the first fortune iii Ike district, despising, at :.ur.h ; an era, the extravagancies of fashion, and the , frivolity of what i,s called amtlsciuenf, are set ting examples ol useful industry. It is hoped the example will be follmyeil by .their sisters throughout the union Dr. Le /?afon, a gentleman lately from Mi chilimakinac, and wh • has resided there for’ the last five years has lately left this city for Philadelphia, New-York and fins'on, lor the very laudable purpose of forming a company ! of American merchants front those cries to ‘■ embark in the Fur Trade of our northwestern { frontiers. We hope the enrerprize ot Dr Le | Aaron may be crowned v/ith every possible i sircccss in this important object. It is the on j ly meahs by which the current of that valuable * and lucrative trade can be diverted from Catia | da to the United States, and it is the only way j to acquire such an ascendancy over the savage ; mind, as to ensure a pacific disposition on the part of the Indian tribes. VVe are happy to learn, that every disposition has been manifes ted on the part of the government to encour age and sunport this important object.—'Na tional Intelligencer. j COLD NF.
