~.e United State*. Ker feel ’was laid on the 9th July, since which there have been 74 working days, and it u (he will be ready for sea in 14 days. Salem, October 19. Yeftenjay arrived the brig George, Capt. Howland, from St. Peterlbuig. Sailed from Cron ftadt August *• , • A few days before Capt. Howland failed from Russia the magazine at Cronftadt took fire and blew up, and up wards of 30 men were killed and wounded by the explosion. The night Howland failed from Cronftadt a fliip x took fire, and was the means of 6 Britift) Ihips being burnt. Boston, October 24. Capt. Delano arrived last night, at jo o’clock, from Danbury. He informs ns that Capt. Atkins acquainted him that he failed in company with the brig Cyrus, Capt. Tyler, from Nantz, which place they left the 1 6th September. The Cyrus has dispatches on board for Government, and orders that she fliould not be flopped or detained by the French forts or vessels of war. That the condutt of the French Government toward the United States had totally changed, and an apparent desire to open an amicable negotiation infmdfciately was visible among them. That they had received no knowledge of Buonaparte. That Capt. Delano received a letter from Mr. Doubre, Consul at Nantz, in which he declares that the French Government were willing to meet any meafureS for an accommodation to the fatisfadlion of the United States, and that they deprecate a war. Duplicates of the Cyrus’s dispatches have been seen. Want of time prevents our going further into detail (5f this linking effect of the energy and liability of tlie Ame rican Government. There was a temporary embargo at Nantz, owing to the Itting out of fome vessels of war. Joieph Woodward, Esq. who has the care of the dis patches, is a passenger On board the Cyrus. ‘ October 3ri We understand that the dispatches which were brought by Mr. Woodward, and immediately sent to the Prelident, contain nothing thore than an official com munication to Mr. Skipwith of the late arrets taking oft* the embargo on our vessels, and enjoining the liberation of A merican sailors, with a copy of new orders to the Com manding Officers in the ports of tlie Republic, directing them to treat our vessels as they treat other neutrals, not withstanding the late ads of our Government. But with all these fair appearances thejaws which au thorize the capture of our vessels and property are not yet repealed; though we learn it is Mr. Skipwith’s opinion that the Diredory will recommend to the two Councils a revi sion and modification of those laws, and we may prefnme that the two Councils will continue to do as they are bid den. The diipatches from our Envoys were publilhed only in ene department in France; a few copies only found their way to the light; they were immediately suppressed by order of Government. Thus Hands the French liberty of the press. November 3.

The Committee fay, “ they cannot find language energetic enough to thank them; but when they are informed that they have put it in the. power of the Committee to clothe the naked, to save the shivering child from perishing, and fend the infant warm, and the mother happy, away, their own benevolent and feeling hearts will afford them the belt of gratifications.” Os the donations to the distressed poor of Philadelphia we fee 5100 dollars from the city of Charleston.
