Sir,
Having gone through the personal
explanations, which for just motives I was
compelled to enter into in my firft answer
to your letter of the 15th inst. 1 mfttt new
inform you, fir, what otherwise would
then have constituted my whole reply;
that the envoy extraordinary and
minister plenipotentiary from his catholic
tnajefty, near the United States, receives
tit orders except from his Jo ve reign. I must
also declare to you, fir, that I confider both
the ftylc and tenor of your letter as iadeco
thus, aci its Object an inflation of the pri-
T ileges attached to my public character.
This violation of the diplomatic rights and
privileges as in explicable in itfelf, as it is ill
grounded, requires on my part the moll fo
«mn protest againll your fuid letter, its
ttyle, and the intent with which it is addtef
fed to me. Ido the re! ore protell in the most
fo’emn manner I pofhhty can, against this
improper step of yours, fir; a Ikp, which.
Under the existing circumftanccs, is as con-
Jtiura J W nftl Q no
it is to the spirit of the conftitutiou and
government of this country ; and in order
tint your conduct, fir, in this case, may
not in any manner affeft the privileges of
the body to which I have the honor to be
lorg, I (hall immediately tranfmic to the
orlier members thereof accredited near the
U. States, a espy of your said letter, of my
full answer, and of ray, protell, that on
their patt they may make the proper use
thereof, and also that it may always appear
th&t if there has exitled, on the part of this
adudnlftranon, an arbitrary determination
t» violate the rights of ehabafly, refpcdled
by every civilized nation, there did also
edit in me the just refulution of repelling
4a/ similar attempt,
I have the honor to be, &c.

By lie late arrivals both to the north
ward am! southward, as well as at this port,
our European advices are brought down to
the 3til day of December. The latest we
are now in poflfeilian of is the verbal infor
mation communicated by captain Adams,
who arrived here lad Saturday fiom Lisbon,
which place he left on the 3d of January,
He perfiils in the corrcdlncfs of his detail,
which in fuhftance is ; that 0* the laid of
December hefaw at the Swcdiih consul’s of
fice official bulletins of a continued aftUn
between the French and Ruffians, which laded
with small intermission for 8 days, and ter
minated in the total dlfmemberment and de.
jlrufi'ion of the Ruffian army. He fays that
the accounts dated positively, that 40,000
laid down their arms, after stipulating for
an uninterrupted return to their own coun
try; and tfcit 20,000, attempting to force
their way through the French army, were
cut to pieces. < v
Extract of a letter from Wajhlngiort) dated
the l\Ji of February .
The government has received dispatch
es from Mr. Manro, dared the 26th Nov.
which Hated that the day before he received
a note from Lord Midgrave, in answer to
two of his, which accedes to an examina
tion of the differences with us—thus cur
profpefts are brightening in that quarter.
The bill proposing a tax on Africans, on the ,
third reading, was recommitted. Thi topic
of the day hete, is the junftiun of the Burr
and Clinton parties in New.Yotk; the
object of this is laid to he for the Colonel

AUGUSTA, March 8.
NEWS CONDENSED.
Since our lad, as we expefted, we have
received a considerable addition to our for
mer supply of foreign news. A vessel which
failed from Lisbon on the find of January,
brings information that the French, after
eight days hard fighting, defeated the Allies,
taking 40,000 Ruffians, prisoners, and cut
ting 20,000 more to pieces, who would ob
stinately persist in returning home without
leave or licence from the little Curfican /
Bonaparte, it is said, has formed the gene
rous idea of reflating Poland, once mare to
her independence. Koffioniko, they fay, had
been sent to his native country, to favor
this project. Bavaria and Hungary, it ap
pears, have flattering profpefts, in conse
quence of the rapid revolutions in Germany,
of becoming the one, more refpedlable, and
the other more independent, at the expence
of the house es Austria. Prince Rohan,
whose column had been cuf off by the grand
army, in endeavouring to form a junction
with the Arch.duke Charles in Italy, was
taken by Maffena, with 7,000 men—all his
colours, camp, equipage Ac.
By the last accounts a party of the French
array had reached to the environs of Tried,
while Maffena with the main body pressed
forward to Vienna, Augereau on his part,
was not idle, as will appear by his letter.
On the other fide the Englifli, Ruffians
and Swedes were concentrating their forces,
in Hanover, while gen. Brune was at An
twerp with 43, or 50,000 men, preparing
to defend Holland and the low conn tries
Gen. Lefebure was encamped at Cologne
with 70,000 men. By late orders from
Bonaparte, we find that in addition to ail
these, 200,000 more were immediately re
quired by confeription !
The last news from England states, that
the price of cotton had been lower than for
several years pad, fourteen pence only ! and
this probably, on account of Bonaparte’s
rapid movements on the continent.
A feccnd formidable expedition failed
from England to join the firft, in Hanover—
the Duke of Cambridge was preparing to
follow them* The Swedes and Ruffians
from the Baltic, were to makeja grand diver
{ion in fav*r of the Emperor of Germany
and his brother of Ruflia, towards Bohemia.
The King ofPrullia is said to have marched
into Bavaria, and surprised several parties of
the French army, tho’ the German accounts
date that he went only roprorefl the line
of neutrality. The body of lord Nelfcn
was to have lain in Pate in London—a gen
eral faft or fcaft took place in England, on
account of the defeat of the combined fleets.
The cotton mamifaflurers are represented
to have been greatly at a and the
three percent confols were at 5 1 and a f>acm
tlan! The people under all these flattering
circumftancts, are said to have been in great
f p t r,u —the IrHh ejhep ! and the only cause
of depression appears to have been, that the
Englifli ministers feinted willing to relax
from their late resolution, of harraffing and
fpoliating the commerce of America,
Bonaparte is Gated to have sent several
thonfand Nappy dors, to the king of Piuflia,
as compensation for the trcfpaffcs his army
had committed, in marching through An.
fpach, without his leave. —The national
Bank at Paris had such a run on it, that it
was found necessary to difperlc the croud,
for fear of a tumult.
Considerable damage, wepnderftand, has
been done lad week, in the environs of Au
gusta, by lire, which communicated from
the woods, to houses, fences, fodder &c.
Though difcoqraglng the News from Eu
rope, we ate glad to find that c*ur cotton
buyers ftili offer a decent price—this week
cotton fells from i6ro 17 cents.

States*-68.

The court of Vienna is in a pitiable
plight. Driven from its capital to Bruun,
from Bruan to Olmutz and form Olmutz to
Cracow in Poland, it has as little prefpeff
of repofein its present retreat as before it
left Vienna.--and should a froft have set in,
or the tran(ports have been difmifled which

they will be in a situation no less aukwatd
