NEW-ORLE&NS, July 20.
The Revenue cutcer Louisia
na, which has been here form
days repairing, had her guns
landed, for the greater expediti
on and fatery. On Thursday
lad the bank whereon they were
loft in the river—although pla
ced 20 or 30 yards from the edge
of the stream. The crew aboard
the cutter which lay dole alhore,
about 40 paces from where the
guns were, observed the bank
giving way, and immediately
jumped on Ihore to save them,
but were only able to get off
two, which was done at great
hazard.
Capt. Newcomb has been
looking for other guns, and we
hope he will get fupplicd, as he
will in a few days be ready for
iea. This is oncof thole unfore
ffen accidents, against which
there is no guarding.—The na
ture of cur riv. r is such, that no
property on its margin is fecuie,
and we know net the moment wc
may he deprived of our best pos
lefiions.

Extraift of a letter from a mer
chant in Liverpool to his
ccrrefponder.t in this city,
dated Liverpool July 6th.
1805.
“ Our cotton market is very
unpleasant and from the contin
ued depression in the demand for
goods, we fear likely to remain
lb ;at lead for lome time. The
docks principally center in this
place, and the iupplies of fine
cottons particularly heavy, and
it will be a long time ere they
can be reduced, though the hold
ers of them do not prels heavy
on the market. If there be any
chance for improvement it will
be in low cottons towards the
fall of the year,
Upland Georgias fell i6d. a
I7d. and lome few prime ones
rather higher. Superior Mif
fiflippi at 2od. but the middling
and inferior qualities can scarce-
ly be moved at i~]&. a ißd. and
the manufactures prefer good
uplands to them.
Thus fi uated we flrongly re
commend caution in shipments.
if, however, prime cotton can be
shipped at New-Oileans at 17 a
m cents, and at Tcnneffee 14 a
15, we think they may be lent
with lafety, Alfb uplands from
the Atlantic States, at 15 a 16
but we do not advile purchasers
of lira islands.
The quality of cotton from
the Millilftppi is complained or
this year very much, being ge
nerally very fofc and deficient i n
staple. In fome of the Natehes
cottons there arc prime qualities,
but mixed, and w'e regret to have
co (late iliac in leveral instances,
we have ieen cotton with consi
derable quantities of feeds; and
we mult confirm what we have
already so fully dated to our
friends, that it will be ruinous 10
their intereds if this is not check
ed.
Premiums continue very un
certain, and it is with difficulty,
even at exhorbitant rates, that
the underwriter can be prevailed
upon to cover veffcls from
New-Orleans, which are in .lie
.mailed degree out of time.
We have accounts of the ar
rival of the combined fl e:s at
Martinique, but as they had re
mained there for lome days, and
there is no account of their fail
ing, it has given rife to various
conjeiftures.
The prices of sugar, coffee and
produce, may be generally con
iidered as uncertain, till fome
rhing decisive be known—but
cotton cannot be improved, as
the islands take off many of our
goods, and the depression of the
capture of them w ould occafiun,
would counteratft any effect from
the cLtendon of a part of the
lupplies ; and we much doubt
whether this would noc eventual
ly be the case in other articles of
produce.’’

POSTSCRIPT.
Thursdty morning, 3 o'clock dug us t 29.
[The txprtfs wh.ch we dispatched ia;e
ln.ll evening- to Salem, has this mo me a’
arrived, and furuifhcs the following
particulars relative to the before men
tioned important news.]
From the Salem Register Augujl 29
Yesterday the brig Bclleilir, Captain
Leach, ariived here, in 66 days from
Napl-s. About 8 days before he failed,
news arrived there, that Gen. Eaton,
at the head of the fma'il American force
*hich had been detached from our Me
diterranean squadron, and the troops
collcfttd by the rival brother of the lL
fhaw of Tripoli, haJ had an engagement
with the Tripolmes, at D.-rna—on which
fide victory declared, we do not learn ;
but it was Lid that Gen. Eaton’s army
fuff-red molt severely, and that every A
merican was killed, except Mr. Eaton,
who was wounded in the shoulder.
The effect of the battle, bjwever, was
an immediate negociation for peace, to
aflilt at which, Col. Lear went from
Malta to Tripoli; and two days before
C.ipt. L. faded, dispatches were received
from Col- Lear at Naples, bringing the
important and glorious intelligence,
a PEACE highly honourable to the
United States had been concluded, and
of course the Americans who had been
so long fu{hiring in captivity r*leafed.
Capt. L. we underfund brings dis
patches for our government, so that we
may expect shortly to have the official
details of the buttle, the negociation,
and the terms of peace.
The American fqiadron ha-1 not left
Malta when thi3 affair took p ace ; and
there was no intelligence at Naples of
the guii-boats from the United States
having joined them. Commodore Bar
ron, aider he found the negociation vrc.
in a proiniliug train, !ai!;dL for the Uni
ted States, on account ofh’s ill flat- of
health. Boston Gaa.
Mr, Bowdwt in, the American
Minider ro vSpa.n arrived at Cos

his passports in due time, but
was lazed with a lerious ird s
pofitiqn, and remained till 8 01

of physicians, it was determined
‘hat considering the Hate of tru
roads and the duties which
would devolve on him it would
be very imprudent for him to 1
rroceed to Madrid. On ac
count of his bad health, a trip
to England was recommended,
and h tving obtained every Be
coming civility, Mr. Buwdom
received pailports for that coun
