amongst you through your own deliberate choice; and
since the first moment X entered Sweden, I have constant
ly fulfilled my.duties both as a commander and fis a eo-
- regent. 4 can now only s .y, Uiat if you should consider
my death an advantage toSweden.tny life is freely at your
disposal.” During this address a solemn silence prevail
ed; and when it was ended the prince was greeted with
loud and repeated acclamations. In all the letters receiv
ed from Denmark not a word is said of this conspiracy
at Stockholm; nevertheless, the fact was considered'at
Jfambargh as beyond dispute; the only circumstance
which appeared of a doubtful nature, was the precise
, mode in which the life of the crown prince had been at
tempted.
Our private letters, and the Paris Journals which hare
this morning arrived, oi Tuesday last, shew that factious
agitation has more than usually prevailed of laje. The
Caaette de Prance (but none or the other pipen see have
received,) mentions some disturbances among a part of
the king's body guards at Versailles, the place which it is
Slid, the royal family'will soon make their summer resi-
, deuce. The appearance of the king at the windows of
the Thuilleries produced kn unusual sensation. The
kquabbles between the Royalists and the Jacobins still
Continue. The latter have the audacity to wear the vio
let, the emblem of Bonaparte, Urns displaying their affec
tionate remembrance of his return two years ago to his
government of a hundred days; and persons are found
10 the French ministry who have •■he effrontery to excuse
these manifestations of a treasonable spirit, under the
cant of “liberal sentiments.”— Courier.

FRENCH PRISONER IN RUSSTA.
Article, dated Elberfeld, X2ih March:—-there have p:
ed through our town within the ia«t fortnight tiq nruom,
era of war, returning from Russia. They have' stated-
that there are still in the remote provinces of.Riissu.
many prisoners, who only want the necessary mean's id
return to their country. One of these soldiers was a
Frenchman, the otlier a native of this town.—He lull
dwelt in a Russia?) town named Gcwcrsdenensky-Gorod,
which seemed to lie situated towards the south, but a very
great distance from Moscow. In the month of March
1816, the time of his departure, there were there 300
prisoners, all Germans. The Frenchman had resided,
up to July, 1816, in a place named Malouka, which he
stated was situated in Siberia. On the 18th of July he
had set out from it with a column of TOO prisoners, 23
officers, and nine medical men, under the conduct of a
captain: but only 300 arrived on the frontier of Prussia
the rest having perished on the way. About the end of
january they arrive.! at Berlin; the Frenchmen set out,
from that with 41 Hessians for Cassel He assures us,
that when the column passed the town of Calouga, there
were in it 720 other prisoners of war engaged at work
on a canal which they were digging near that town, and
which they said was to be finited with the black sea. At
Moscow he had seen 1,100 other prisoners, French. Ger
mans, and Neapolitans. According to what he had heard
there were 4,000 foreign soldiers at this moment on the
match to Germany. The authorities of Ebersehl h-ve
prenat’ed a proems verbal of the assertions of these two
soldiers.”—Le Muniicur.

To hit excellency the commandant general of Mai the,
. this fiction.
Most hciilcst Sin—I have the satisfaction to inform
you, that at 8 a. it. yesterday, off flieob point, but dot
in sight of it, bring m company with the schooner Ro.
mans, I discovered the insurgent schooner called the Gal
veston, commanded by Juan Baptists Chalens, which bad
committed so many piracies, jntl which I gave chase to,
engaged and captured, after having discharged only three
rounds. I immediately liad her manned, but the officer I
sent for 1 that purpose, ensign Julio Ponce, was obliged to
abandon her, finding that she was sinking. Accordingly
I bad thp mortification to see her sink alongside, saving
only 17 men, including the sc ond captain, who presett
ed themselves by swimming; the rest of the crew, con
sisting originally of 44 in number, were victims of their
obstinacy in endeavoring to escape. I saved also the in-
surgent flag they sailed under, which, with the prisoners
ana a little wearing apparel contained in two small trunks,
w ace at the disposal of your excellency as you may
think proper, retaining by me the boat of the said schoon
er; as it will he of great service to me. God preserve
your exeelienry many years.

The tract of land about Fort Meigs, on the Miami of
Lake Erie, is twelve miles square, or about 60/10 ) acres
more than the district of Columbia. It was cedi d to the
United States at the treaty of Greenville; it includes the
foot of the rapids, and is the hea I of navigation for lake
vessels. The town of Perrysbnrg has been laid out by
order of the United States, on the south hank of die
Miami, opposite to which there is from 6 to 9 feet
depth of water. Tite town lias nine parallel streets
running north and south. It contains 768 town or
In lots, each one quarter of an acre, and 2ti6 Out
lots from two to four acres each. A public wile
both of the town and of the whole twelve miles
square, will be held at the land office in Wooster, Ohio,
on the third Tuesday of July next. The minimur.; price
for (own lots is twenty dollars each, and for out lots five
dollars an acre. The head waters of the Miami approach
^within afew miles those of the Wabash; It is probable
that a flourishing and respectable settlement will soon
appear on this tract. Good roads will soon connect
this setlement with Detroit and Lower Samliisdy, and
the cultivated parts of Ohio. Uy the Greenville treaty
a cession was made of tn-o miles square at the lower ra
pids of Sandusky. This tract also lias been surveyed—
the town of ChraghansviHe has been laid out on the East
11 ranch of Sandusky, and the whole will be offered at
public sate at Wooster, on the second Monday of July-
next.—ib

Of the settled and inveterate hostility pf the Fiorina
Indians against the citizens of this state, there is daily
confirmation. In reply to a late communication on this
subject from the executive of Georgia, general Gaines ob
serves, that although .the principal part of the force un
der his command has been particularly designated, for
the present, to the section of country where he is,
(the eastern frontier of the Mississippi territory) he an
ticipates the early receipt of an ordi r to check the de
predations of the savages and effectually subdue them.
Should it be necessary to pursue them to their towns, a
requisition -will be made on this state for two battalions o f
infant’-y, to co-operate with the regular troops. Ac
companying the letter of general Gaines, was one from
a British agent, who doubtless possesses the talent, if not
the inclination, to foment a spirit of discord among the
Indians, that will tend to their destruction. The follow-
ing is an extract—it speaks for itself:—
.irbuthnot to the commanding officer at Fort Gaines.
“Gkolokne river, -3d' March, 1S17.
“The head chiefs request I will inquire of you, why
American settlers are descending the Chatahouchie, driv
ing tlie poor Indian from his habitation, and taking pos
session of liis home and his cultivated fields.
“Without authority, 1 can claim nothing of you; but
a humane and philanthropic principle guiding me, I hope
the same will influence you—and if such is really the
case, and that the line marked o”t by she treaty of peace
between Great Britain and the United States, resnectuu:
•the Indian nations, has been infringed by any of the citi-
xens of the latter, that you will represent to them ther
Improper conduct, and prevent i's continuance. Tt
“I have in my possession a letter leceived from the

Britannic majesty’s chief secrctarv of state, informing
him of the orders given to the British ambassador at
IFashsngton, to watch over the interests of the Indian nu-
tiom, and see that their rights are faithf tillo attended to
and protected agreeably to the treaty <f peace made between
the British and Americans.
“1 am in hopes that, ere this, there is arrived at New-
Providcnce'a person from Great Britain,, with authority
to act as agent for the Indian nations—and if so, it will de
volve upon him to see, that the boundary lines, as marked

FROM POTrFJu-PRLYCE.
By an intelligent gentleman who arrived yesterday
from Port-au-Prince, in the Dutch ship Susannah, we
learn—that about the 22d of April, the A merican consul,
Mr. Taylor, left that place; having previously struck his
flag and resigned his situation on account of the cargo
of an American brig having been condemned, by Petion.
What were the grounds of this condemnation,'we have
a °Bythe same source we gain intelligence, that the Car-
thagenian (or independent) privateersmen, are much in
censed at the Haytian government, in consequence of
heir having condemned and sold several Spanish prizes
sent in by them. These cruisers bad therefore declared
and commenced hostilities against Petion, and it was un
derstood they bad already captured two or three schoon
ers under the Haytian flag.—Charleston City Gazette.
