Extract of a letter /torn Halifax, date* Augujl 16. *'■ Captain Whitby of the Leander, was sometime since fuperceded in the command of that (hip by captain Hum phreys, from England. The Leander fails for England betWeert this day and the 24th inlt. Captain W. goes paffcn gtr in her, and a (trift enquiry is to b; made into the unfortunate occurrence off New.York. fie is permitted to take home fucti officers as he may think ne cessary to bring foYward in his defence “ In his majesty’s inftruCfion3 to Bag officers, captains &c. dated on the 29th of May last, 1 find the following para graph “ Representations Laving been made that neutral (hips are frequently detained upon frivolous grounds, you are hereby further required and directed not to in tercept any (hips under nctetrat flags en gaged in trade not prohibited by law, except upon proof or Itrong ground of prcfupmtion.thst the (hip or the goods be longing to his majetty’a enemies, and you are particularly to bear in mind, that neutral veffeis, conveying cargoes be tween this country and (England) and the ports of ihe enemy, carry with them strong pvefumption, that the properly is either on ll.ii (h or neutral and engaged W a legal trade ; his majesty having, in can-iicieration of the prelent date of com merce, been pleased to allow’ that trade to be ’Anted on by British and neutral fubjefts.; it is therefore proper that such trade (hould fuffer as 111 tie interception as pofliok. “ H.

TUCKER.” “ The above inllruttions from the Lords of the Admiralty were received on this Ration by his majelly’s (hip Leopard ; and 1 have further uttderftood, it is the wi(h of the admiral here, that no neutral vessels (hould be detained on light or fri volus grounds.” NORFOLK, September 18. In a part of the last edition oi cur pa per, we gave a hasty account of the des truction of the French line of battle (hip L’lmpeteUx, of 74 guns, commanded by Monfieiir Leveyer Bclaix, member of the legion of honor. Since then we have converted wi'h fome of the officers of the French (hip, who fay, tnat in a violent gale on the 19th Augutl, in lat. ‘ z 5. file was totally ditmafted, her rudder broke, water calks (love, and ah the pow der wet and dettroyed ; they were obiig. ed to throw all their guns overboard, ex cept the lower tier, to keep her afloat. After being in thi3 deplorable date for twenty-three days, (hort of provisions, and not a drop of frefh water, early on Sunday morning last they deicrird two British tien of war, a frigate and an ar med fcrig, being then about twelve miles off fliore to the southward of Cape Hen ry ; that fooncr than be taken at sea, they immediately made for the (bore, on which they run the (hip before the Bri tith got within (hot, having, with their colours, a figtial of distress also hoisted. They (late that the frigate commenced firing upon them when they were a ground, and within a mile of the land, and continued the fire until the colors and Lils were lowered—during thi3 lime, ~ the two iine of battle (hips were at an chor within long-shot—that the crew of the fit It boat which came on board from the frigate behaved with much civility but when the marines came they conduc ed themselves with ruderiefs—That the captain ot tht French (hip expoftuiated with them, ftatiog that they were on neutral ground, but to no effect, for after taking out what of the crew that oid not jump overboard, they set lire to her, and effectually deftroveu her. The L*fm peteaux had near 700 men ; thole taken ou board the frigate have been sent up from Hampton Roa Is, and are now com fortably lodged in the Holpital at Ferry Point. The L’lmpeteaux was one of Willou. mey’s fquadroH, an<l ot wr>’ch Jerome was ffcond in con,maud in the Veteran, which (hip parted from the Iqiiadrc.n in the latitude of New-York, 20 or 30 days before the gale, and has never since been heard of—ftrongly fufpedeu (he has foundered. Thty te lin with the Fou t droyant, (tke admiral's (hip) three day. ter the gale, totally d'fmafted, rudder ie and nearly a wreck— luppofis (he has got into the Havanna. The Cafard and Velereufe frigate, belonging to this £ t ,. a r .ron, t*rc also milling. ju vnendation is due to Mr. Myers, whe* ori bearing o; the deplciable fitua tiof o f the poor fellows who Twain on at ,I w ho were making the bell of theffa-iy /or this place, without clothes, and ynaou t victuals, immediately sent earn- r.*, w.iih provisions and clothes, to met:, them. CHARLESTON October 4. Cap-urn Pru*.c, who arrived yetterday from Garracoa, informs us that general Miranda has tak’.en Aruba ; that he has includin' 1, fcaan u, about yco men ; rhat v he Spaniards ap .sear ratiier to keep aloof but that be has b een joined by a number of Indians. The bpamamL were fitting out at Porto Cavalio, about 20 armed vessels toecut off Miranda’s supplies by the BntuL, and to scour tbe c ait Cap tain JoKttsox of the fh:p Leander, who landed with about 20 men to procure water, was (urpiized by a party ot Span ivds, and the whole of them made pri ioners. Twelve of the Americans who *crt crctuted in Miranda a fehooners have i..;*a har.gtd ar.J the rest fi nt to he mines for life. Three of those who were hung, were Roman Catholics, ant eceived Chriltian buriet, the rest were fuffered to remain upon the gallows. Several Americans having arrived at Cur. racoa, the arsenals and magazines have been completely fiileJ, but it was gene rally supposed that if Miranda succeeded the Britilh would attack Curracoa, for the purpose of obtaining a convenient depot of supplies and as a port from whence Miranda might eafi ! y receive a fiftance and support. Several (kirmifhes had taken place, but were ot Hiding im portance to either party, The ultimate success of the expedition was still held to be doubtful. -*■- . . r ; For LIVERPOOL, THE fail failing flop ELIZA, fzsMSam JofepU Starks, m after, fclxppiSed to lie ctilpatched fi-inn the toth to the 23th of next month.

THE following is extracted from tbe (Litchfield) Witnel's, edited by the perfected Olbom : “TOWER OF TRUTH. “ It is now very, well alcertamed that John Allen, efij. of this place, has ablolutely seceded from federalifm—and we ate happy to add, from indilputable authority, that Judge Sedg wick, of Stockbridge, late fpeaker oi tbe nati onal houl'e of Representatives, and Senator in Congrel's, has followed the example.” IT is no doubt in the recollection of many of the inhabitants of this place, that JOHN ALLEN, Esq. was one of the Federal champions, who wrote against the election of Mr. Jefferfon to the P.didency—he was the author of several publications under the signature of ‘ Bl ! RLElGH’—thefe publications originally appeared in the “ Connedi cut Courant,” a Federai vehicle printed in Hartford, and extracted into every Federal print in the ur’on —even into that Federal luminary, the “ Golun.bi/in Nlurtum.” The object of BURLEIGH was, to destroy all confidence in Mr. Jefferfon, and to continue Mr. Adams in the Presidential Chair—but, happy for this country, his labors were in vain.— He ha*, at length, “i* error— he has . treated from the path of dtlu fion, in which he l.as so long trod—he lias nlifted with the fupportera of Ameri can Liberty, and rallies round their Hand - ard—may he prove worthy of the cause he has espoused—he may, no doubt, be called an apostate by thole whom he once looked upon as friends to his country— he may be called a weather-cock— but, if he difeovered his error, and abandoned the cairl'e of Federalism from principle, as thousands have done before him, he is an honed citizen—and may he long live to enjoy the bleffmgs of Republican i so—may he, alt-hog h he come3 at the eleventh hour, be a true disciple of found principles. With refpeft to Judge SEDG WICK, we know but little, however, it appears, he was also an adherent to the cause of delusion ; but has, like an hon ed man, difeovered liis error—embraced the cause of jultice—and is determined to fin no more. We are of opinion, that Federal ism in Connecticut, is degenerating very fad—thur bonded strength is fait—-very fad, travelling to the (hades of oblivion— the people beg::, to open their eyes—they begin to difeover the depravity of the cause in which they have been so zeal ous—they are determined to be gulled no longer by the artifices of the enemies of their rights as men—as Freemen. WE hear nothing further from the felf boafting “ Candor”...lie mud have exhausted alibis strength in his firft produ(ftion...he, no doubt, is desirous of remaining snug behind the Gur|fiin...poor foul...don’t tremble...we will not force you before the public eye ..left they ftiould behold a CO WARD...not, a BRAVE MAN ! ! ! ! ON Monday last, a certain Eleiftioneer ing charadter, famous for the federal ticket, stiled himfelf a DOCTOR, and for the purpose of carrying his point, brought forward twen ty seamen, as he told them, to vote for a hofpi til—the poor fellows, innocent of doing any thing contrary to the laws of this state, followed their leader to the Court-hoofe, where he a bandoned them to work their own way. One of the presiding juftice6 alking one of them what he wanted, his answer was, lie v. ilhed to vote for the hospital—he was put upon oath, and like an horieft foul, declined (wearing he was a citizen of the United States—they knew nothing of the nature of the eleblion, therefore the only one culpable i* the felf-made DOC TOR 11!

Thou wert elteemed and beloved by the public and by the refpedtable lociety of which thou wert a member, as a good citizen, a good husband and father, ever ready to prop and afiill fullering humanity—fur honed people are ever alive to the feelings of beuevolence No remorie of confidence didurlied thy dying mo ments, no concern arole in thy bread, but the accident that befel hy family, hi the lad moments ot didblution, attended with bitter an guifli, thou forgot not illy Gody but joined the miniders ot thy church, in hi* lolemn prayer at the awful pad age to eternity.
