A letter to the editor of the tiondon ’Courier, from Manchester, August I state* that the spinners, tu the number 14,000, *1111 continue to bid defiance •their employer*, and are subsisting upon their own limited mean*. Hit* combina tion of the laborers appears-to be quite ex tensive; and it is even stated that remit tances to these deluded people have been - made from the mechanics of London.— 'Some of the English pagers speak with trembling upon the subject, and ^attribute the disorders to the seditions writings and secret machinations of the Black Dwarf ■skid company. The Courier mentions the return of -some of the modern reformers, who last year emigrated to America, after cutting a conspicuous figure in the reform jour nals, on the subject of “American earn "ing*.” A singular' circumstance is mentioned as having taken place on board the ship 'Emanuel, captain Springal, bound to El- ainore. As captain 8. was sailing by the 'gun-fleet beacon, in the Swin, about 16 miles from land, the'vessel-was suddenly -visited by millions of wasps; and although the crew-kept sweeping the deck and gun wale as they fell, they wete assailed with Successive swarms for foil four hours. By accounts from Constantinople, it-rp •pears that the difficulties between Russia Slid the Porte, are not yet .-.Justed. Ba ron Stroganoff, the Russian minister, pre tented a note to the divan, containing i recapitulation of all the affairs between the two governments, on the 34th of May. Both powers claim the administration of ‘the principalities nf Moldavia and YYal lacltia; and it seems the Turks have im -posed a tax uf two millions of - piastres oh the former. On the 28th July, the king of France 'set out on a visit to the castle of Ratnboul- liet—a place which he has not previously visited for the last thirty years. Great •preparations were of course making for his reception. A letter from the head<-quartersatCham ’bray, states positively'that the army of oc cupation wilt leave France about the 1st of October. The Russians will embark at Dunkirk; the'Germans will retire across -the Rhine; and the English will return by the way of Boulogne and Calias. The affair betweeu the duke of Welling ton and the editor of a paper at Brussels, is finally terminated. It will be recollect cd that the charge against the duke, was, •that he endeavored.to exert an undue in -flueuce over the government of France: and had betrayed the high trust confided to him by the allied powers. The London Courier has violently at -tacked the character of general Jackson ville doughty occupier of Pensacola,” as Tie is sneenngly called, The Morning 'Chronicle, the most respectable of the op position papers, had published a biogra pliic'l sketch of the general, which did not quite suit the Courier. Jackson is accus ed of having rendered himself famous for tho number of duels he has fought.— Among other things, it is stated of him by the Chronicle, “that he was formerly a judge; and when he was. once presiding in that capacity, a criminal on his circuit had escaped from the officers of justice.— Judge Jackson ordered the sheriff to raise Ihc posse to pursue the offender, and ad vised him to summon him (Jackson) among others. The judge accordingly 'ivent at the head of the posse, and shot the offender (who resisted) with his oirn hand. He then retorned to the judgement seat, received the report of the resistance and death of the iodividual, and gave an order for his burial in due form. The Courier, however, remarks, “we can hard ly believe that any thing so offensive to public decorum could be committed even in America/” Very fine indeed'. We can assure the Courier, that these sneers and supercilious airs, are justly appreciat ed in this country. And we can also as sure the Chronicle, that if he is. as lie pro fesses to' be, friendly to the American character, he had better avail himself ol some other way of evidencing his good opinions of us, than to vend such foul and groundless slanders. We venture to say, that the above anecdote was never before heard of in America. Though an attempt i* made tu draw invidious comparisons be tween American judges and lord Ellenbo- rough, these editors are informed, that oor juridicial benches are adorned with judges who for talents and legal acquirements, would nut suffer by a comparison with any in the world. Lon-dov, July 27. The following is an extract of a letter from Hamburgh, dated the 17th inst “The discussions at Frankfort on the Maine, relative to the military concerns of tiie German confederation, have been carried on with so much violence, that af ter the interchange of reproachful words among the members, the sitting, uuable to arrive at any conclusion, was formally prorogued- Couriers were immediately dispatched by the members of the Diet to their respective courts, whose return is anxiously luoked for, as the session can not, till then, recommence its proceedings. It is apprehended that this matter will cause disagreeable consequences. Three mentJers of the Hamburgh senate, Messrs. H-isse, Jencqncl and Siilcm have been formed into a commission to superintend the distrioation of the sum of twenty mil. lions of francs, shortly to be paid by France among those persons who are enti tled factions of it.

This step, if taken,, ainliffollowed upby the punishment of that officer, may be sufficient to conciliate the wounded feelings of-Spain, and too nice ai inquiry into instructions would then be ill timed curiosity. But there is aniitix- mode in which it has been surmised thi affair between Spain and America may bi settled,whichrequiresalittlenotioe. “W have good reason to believe” observes morning paper of yesterday, “that an ap peal will be made by Spain to the greatal lied powers of Europe for an adjustment differences by their mediation.” O course, this appeal must be made by both the letigants; but America has solemnly declared her intention not to unite in suci a reference. In the long historical lettei frsm John Quincy Adams to Don Onis, dated May ’2,1818, is the following pas sage:—“ The United States in justice tr themselves, in justice to that harmony, which they earnestly desire to cultivat- with all the powers of Europe, in justic to that fundamental system of policy, which forbids them from entering th> labyrinth of European politics, must de cline soliciting or according to the interler ence of any other government of Europe for the settlement of their differences with Spain.” Aftsr this assurance, the ques tion of mediation is wholly at rest. With respect to ■ the commerce of the country in general, it appears that the im ports and exports of last year exceeded those of the year preceding, the former by 3,380 1171. the latter by 1,188,532l. : and as to purchase branches of trade, which are steadily advancing, we need only mention the intercourse between the port of Liverpool and the East Indie* In the year 1814, Liverpool dispatched only one ship to the East Indies, and that ship was 5i2 tons. In 1817 however we find her sending tu the same quarter no less than twenty-six ships, of which the aggre gate tonnage was 10,876 tuns. It was in 1816 that'tnc trade'took the great start for in that year sixteen ships were expe dited. If we look to the return which Liverpool received from India, which shall perceive much about the same ratio of increase. In 1814 uo return cargo was made, whilst in 1817 this branch of com merce reached to fifteen ships, whose ton nage amounted to 6426 tons. Four American vessels were met in the Baltic about ten days since, proceeding to St. Petersburg in ballast, in order to load with naval stores, with .which they were directed home, as speedily as possible.— This is far from being the first instance that has come to our koowledge of the con signees of the. Americans to provide them selves not merely with naval stores, but with ammunition and artillery. Most ol the American ships which leave the Thames, carry ourmilitaiy stores in great abundance; cannon balls, pieces of cannon, and gun powder, taking in the latter at the place assigned for taking in cargoes of that sort. One, which sailed five or sis weeks since, carried out several 24 poun ders, guns suitable to no vessel under the strength of a frigate. All this is done publicly, and we mention it as mere mat ter of curiosity, and without the slightest nation that it should be prevented. The probability is, that many such materials have been *e-sold directly to the South A- merican Insurgents, that some are provi ded by individuals and by government for the war with Spain, and and that the re mainder will be stored for any other war, to which the Americans may suppose them selves led by their “high destinies!” Toung Napoleon and the Emperor of Austria. A Vienna article of the 8th July, states follows, “Young Napoleon was taken to Baden, about tiiree posts from Vienna, two days ago, to pay his respects to his im perial grand-father, and congratulate him on bis return. The boy is a fine thriving fellow, and bears a close resemblance to his exiled father. His mother, Maria Louisa, duchess of Paima, is here at pre sent.* “Jerome Bonaparte lives upon his es tate, about two posts from Vienna.. He nas purchased a mansion near the city, but the emperor has refused his permission to him to reside there. Jerome effected an exchange of home at an extra cost and great lo»s. Provisions, and indeed alt the necessaries of life, are much dearer in Vienna now titan under the reign of Bo naparte, although it must be confessed, the present emperor is most sraeut in his en deavors to ameliorate and soften the con dition of the poor. There is a prospect of a most abundant harvest throughout Hun gary, both in corn and wine. LAT?. FROM HAVRE. New-Yobs, August 4. The fast sailing barque Spat tain, capL Coffin,.arrived at this port last evening, in 26 days from Havre. The Spartan left Extract of a letter from Hr. Beasley, American consul at Havre-de Grace, dated the 30th July last. “Havre, Julg 30. “Since I commence;* operations, nine Americans have arrived, six ofwhich I have entered at the custom-house; the others were entered by the brokers. Capt Hall of the Comet, was taken by surprise: they have, however, agreed to do his business for If.per ton, withoatthe usual reserve tor the 50 centimes, which they have been ' the habit of exaetiiig since the masters vessels entered iuto resolutions not to pay 30 sous. The other two vessels; the ship Maria Cafoline, and b-ig Mary Ann, ad dressed to Martin Feaclie & Son, and Op perraan, Mundrotdj* Co. would also have been entered by me, but the masters wt-re advised by their consignees t# give their bbfiness to the brokers. I, as a matter coirse, will never interfere in such cases- butl think it right that this fact should b< male known, in order that owners of ves sel! inay leave their captains at liberty employ any on- they please to do their cus lotulituse business. The brokers have managed to make tool ufa detroi officer here, who has seiz ed the spirits, <J"c on board of the vessel lor stores, upon the plea that the declara tiou ol these articles at this buereau, ought to be nade by them. I have wrote to Mr. Gallatin on this subject, and this pitiful pu ny effort will, like the bribe, <5fc. wliich have been made use of prove unavailing" From the Boston Patriot, September 3. We have collected tne following infor mation of the vessel strandard atScituaie Two Buenos Ayres privateers having agreed to craisc offCadizto capture Span ish vessels, fell in with the Spanish scltr, Nostra Seignora de la Coster, on the 4th of May, close in with Cadiz, which they captured and ordered foi Kueuos Ayres Nothing remarkable took place until the 4tl of July, when being as far south as latitude 4,00, a part of the prize crew, consisting of Americans and Englishmen, agieed to proceed to the United States; and the bet ter to enable them to accomplish their de sign, they came to the resolution of throw ing the prize master and mate into the sea the first attack was on the mate; having succeeded in this, they next attacked the prize master, and after a short resistance they threw him over; he, however, caught hold of a rope, and in this situation implor ed bat in vain for mercy, as they stabbed him several times, and finally lost the rope, and he went astern and was seen no more The cries of the mate were also loud and mpsrtunate. They afterwards proceed cd far the United States, and when they made the land nft'Scituate, supposed them selves in Deleware Bay. The vessel is loaded with coffee, hides and cotton, as al so cocoa in bulk in her lower hold. On her being taken possession of, and by their actions many suspicious circumstances arising, one of the crew appeared to turn state’s evidence, and the foregoing facts appeared in the examination before the magistrate. They are ail committed the jail in Plymouth for trial. Owing to the great draught of water which the vessel drew, and being a sharp vessel, she on taking the ground, bilged and her lower hold filled with water. She was yesterday taken into custody by the marshal, aod every effort is making by the people uf Scituate to save the property with as little damage as possible, though the hull of the vessel will probably be lost. [The log-book of the above schooner has been received in town; front which it ap pears, that she belongs to Barcelona which port she left in May, 1817, bound to the Caraccas, touching at Tarragona and Malaga, Don Marianu Tenez, master.— She left Laguira on the 10th of April last, for Cailiz, and the logbook is continued up to the 30tli of Muy, then in lat. 26,30, Ion. 6.

The water is ferruginous and a little impregnated with magnesia— d is cold a$)jl pleasant, and creates a good appetite for the ex- excellcnt beef and mniton which are raised here. This establishment should be encouraged; not only because it would keep in the state a large amount of money that otherwise would be spent abroad; but because, were the people who travel from every section of this rich and flourishing state to concentrate themselves here, to spend two or three months, they would become better ac quainted, their manners and customs more fami liar to each other, and consequently, the petty, local distinctions of this man from the east, arid this one Irom the west, would, be discard ed, and more harmony and unanimity would per vade the state. 1 will remark, however, that there is not a state in the union leas cut up with par ties than this. Mr. Alexander, the proprietor, is industrious and attentive—his whole time » de voted to the comfort and convenience of bis visi tors.

There will be no opposition to the candidates for con gress. The ticket published in your paper will of course be elected. Tlit disposing oi the new ac cession of land—what is to be done with the ma ny new applications for Hank charters; and the law passed, by the last legislature, to prohibit the introduction of tiegoes into the state, are all made questions to candidates tor the state legislature. The land no doubt, from the present public opi- nion, will be disposed of by lottery. Members of the last legislature who voted for the prohibi tion of slaves into the state will be warmly op- rosed. It is row univeraa'ly believed that John illiott, of the lower district, will be elected by a handsome vote to fill Tail's place. John For syth, who deservedly stands high, it is said, will not be brought forward; if so, Nicholas Ware, esq. will certainly be elected to fill the vacancy occasioned by the resignation of our worthy pa triot colonel Troup. Planting has certainly be come a very precarious business. From the un seasonable weather experienced ever since April last, worse crops will be made this year than have ever been known in the up-coun try. It is calculated that the cotton crop will fall short of the last at least twelve thousand bales — The corn crops are almost entirely destroyed.— We have just received intelligence from Morgan and Jasper. The rot has commenced its work of destruction upon the cotton, and the grass carter- pillar has destroyed all the grass, and has com. menced upon the corn blades.

Mr. Pell— There is no doubt but all friends of having a free circulating medium established throughout the Uuited States, would have their feelings more than usually excited by tb* late act ot the United Statea Hank, in w hich they are so much concerned. A writer in yr.ur paper of Tueiday undertakes vindicate this sudden and premature act ol the directors; not allowing himself to be a stock hold er: 1 would ask, why do nut the directors shew to the public the grouodaon which they make these sudden and unexpected regulations, so deeply jeopardizing their greatest benefits. Let us dispassionately examine the ground* your correspondent takes for the defence of (ibis measute, not in the least doubting the • purity of his intentions; but f hope you will permit me to differ with him in the correctness of his opinions on tliis subject of such great importance to the nation. He first admits that this measure has pro duced great excitement throughout the union; and that the American people relied with confidence on this institution for a general circulating medi um—on these point* we perfectly agree. Again, “the bank is certainly capable of producing afi the good contemplated by those who establ sbed it.” Was it not the representatives of the people of the U. States who established it! Was not the treatest good they contemplated and promised, a ree circulating medium, and facilitating the ope rations of die treasury of the U States! This new measure undoubtedly destroys every iota of the first, but don’t effect the latter! why! the law binds them to adhere to the fatter, and leaves the former loose to them. Hut your correspondent’s arguments appear to be founded on probalMtiet, instead of rcaluia—he says, “It becomes absolute- necessary to bare brandies in every part of the union, and it waa equally necessary that each of these branches should receive and pay in specie, the cotes of *11 the others, as well as of the mother bank; under these circumstances, it would rmoaa- blt happen that one branch wwgr at times be ob liged to redeem in sptciethe accumulated issues of several of the other branches, and it was next to impossible to foresee when and where this pressure would fall." AU J-.-tc probabilities and utightbeo, were well foreseen and canvassed before its charter; what did its friends promise to the na tion; was it not to be primp facia B national bank! What ia.it now but the name! But the principle rea son urged by your correspondent, .is-the danger of the bask audits branches being drained of their specie for the India trade; and the only means the bank had to supply its vaults waa to purchase golds which could not be done but at * loss; and now tbeir last rerart, they must obtain French coin.
