Dispatches from Mr. Monroe have been re
ceived at Washington, dated 10th October, t A
gentleman of high refpeft"bility has given us th;.
following information as to their contents, in
the foliowiug letter. dated
** Wellington, December 6.
’ “ A letter of the 10th Oclobcr, was la ft night
feceived from Mr. Monroe, containing copies of
j. o tes which had pafied between Mr. Monroe
and the Britiih rmmfter on the fubjeft of the in
sult offered to the honor of the United States
jh the case of the Chesapeake. They contain
■to points on which a decilsve judgment can be
formed as to the ultimate determination, of the
Britiih government. I midenland, however,
Btatan inference may be drawn thereupon, that
they are willing to difavcw the conduit of Ad
rttiral Berkley, smd male’ (what they con
ceive to be) a full reparation for the insult on the
aational flag, which Mr. Role (the envoy) will
be orepared to do ; but they will not agree to
any security for the future fafety of our seamen,
iennefiled with such Liisfacticn. They will
hold themselves ready to ditcuf;, but they insist
that it mu ft be perfectly feperate from the Chef
peake case. [Balt. American.]

Cant. Jeiten was fummoued l?y the Comman
iant of aa Engiifh fquaclron of two line of battle
thips, two frigates and a brig, to surrender the
jDaniih (hip Prince Chtiitian Frederick of eighty
guns, then in Chrillianfand.
The summons was rejected—the English
fquadrot*. commenced an attack, which was re
pulsed by five gun-boats under Captair.-L.ieut.
Till, which vefflls pursued the Ettgliffi squadron
in their flight.
Liverpool, 7th Nov. 1807.
By papers from Altona and Hamburg, we
have a circumftrtotial account of the failure of an
3ttesr.pt, by a British squadron, to get pofi'effion
of a Danish (hip of the line, that had taken (bel
ter in the port of Cl:riilianfand. .This it attri
buted to the gallant refiftar.ee made by foine
gun-beats, which not only repuifed our fquad*
ion, but pursued it to a considerable distance.
Savannah, 27th Dec. 1807.
> From the valour exhibited by the American
Caraen at Tripoli and elietvhere, we have reason
to -think them at leall equal to any ether seamen
in thg world.’
May not the citizens of the United States hope
to fee the fliips or our Britiih foes put to flight
by the brave and jsntriotfc crews of cur gun
boats,-as they have been by the courageous Danes ?
It is a fact that our undaunted'Pars burn for
an opportunity to convince our haughty pirati
cal foes that Americans never (hall be slaves.
I propose that every friend to America drink
a health to brave captain Bill and hi.s valiant
■crews who have ihcvvui the efficacy of gun boats.
By the fall failing sch r James, in 1 days from
Florfolk, we have received the papers of that
city to the 2Cth inst. Mr. Monroe left Nor

‘port, in 35 days from Cherbourg, with Dis
patches from our Mmifters in England ana
France. Dr. Bellas, the bearer of the Dis
patches, immediately on landing, proceeded to
the feat of government. The Dispatches are
supposed to be of great importance, as well
from France as England—the Emperor of
France having declared to Mr. Armllrong, (as
capt. Read informs us) that there should no
longer be any Neutral Nation.
Capt. R. further informs, that there had been
an Embargo at Cherbourg for fix v. in con

About a week previous to the Franklin s sail
ing, all the neutrals received orders from the gov
ernment there, that they must depart from the Ri
ver of Plate in 40 days from the date cf the order,
loaded or not. It was the general opinion there,
that she Americans and Portuguese were all spies
for the English ; and for the term of two years no
1 neutral whatever would be admitted Into any cf the
. ports in the River of Plate, under any pretence
whatever, evens/ they should have a Royal li
. cense.
Gets. Liniers had entered into anew treaty with
the commander of the British squads on, left cruising
in the river, ( which consijied of a frigate, a Jloop
of war , and a cutter) that the British were not to
molcjl ths rivtr trade, that is, from Montevideo to
Buenos Ayres , or any of the ports above Montevi
deo , end that the Spanish government, are to sup
ply the British squadron, or any skips of their na
tion that may put in there, with what supplies they
may want. Maldonado was appointed the port
for their rendezvous, and this was to continue in
force for G months.
On the 17 th oßober, was hoarded off Maldona
do by the British frigate Nereid, captain Gobbet ,
■vi ho took the chief mate out of the ship, he being an
Englfhman, but otherwise treated us politely, l'he
P’F of war and cutler were also in sight. Testy
informed us, that it was their determination not to
ntolfl the river trade, as the Spaniards supplied
them •with every thing they wanted. Capt. Cob
let t also told us, that he expelled a war between
America and England, aud that we should be talcn
before we. go: home.

a French privateer schooner from Gaudaloupe, sup
plied her with water, and treated politely i lat.
