A gentleman in this city re ceived a letter from his friend, dated in Savannah on Friday lad, winch dates, that the Tip poo Saib had spoken on her passage an American vetfeJ, which informed capt. Bowen, that he had passed through rhe combined fleet of thirty-five fail 6f the line and seven frigates, and that they were fleering for Ireland. Charlejlon paper. A Letter from London, dated the 7th O&ober, (received by the above arrival) to a gentle man of this place, dates, that a French squadron, luppofed to be the Rochefort squadron, con fiding of three fail of the line and several frigates, had fallen in off the idand of Ufhant, with fome dnps from Bengal j that a seventy four had engaged the Calcutta of fifty guns, which it was supposed, was captured, as well as fome others of the fleet. This letter further dates, that the iird mail from the continent Wjould bring accounts of hoflili ties having commenced between France and Audria. The long ofPrudiahad sent troops to take pofledionof Hanover. Ibid. JLxtraSt of a letter to the editor of the Aurora , dated Chillicothe (flute of Ohio) Obi. 15, 1805. ts Our republican governor has been re-eledted, nearly una nimoudy—there have been but a few fluttering votes. Every Senator and Representative, e iedled to tire next aflfembly, so far as I have heard, is a Repub lican : and alcho’ the federalids had but two members in the up per and three in the lower house lad year, I am led to believe they will not have even fomafcy the present. <c We have been uncommon - ly healthy here this fealon.—- The emigration to this country the present year, has far exceed ed that of any former one, The United States’ lands lying in this diftridt, are nearly all taken up. Lands which were fold 3 years ago for 2 dollars per acre, are now felling at from 12 to 15 dollars per acre.” It is true, we under (land, that there is on board the Congreis now in the Potomac, an ambas sador from the Bey of Tunis to the United States. His name isSioi Sulim an MalaMan ni, and he is attended by a nu merous suite. The circumstan ces attending this million are too lnrereding to be omitted.— For a conflderable time pad the Bey of Tunis, had manifeded hostile feelings towards the U. States, when three Tunisian snips were taken by our block ading squadron, off Tripoli.— This aft excited the indignation of rhe Bey, and menacing letters were addrefied to our Commo dore demanding fatista&ion.— As soon as peace was effe&ed with Tripoli, Com. Rodgers entered the ‘l'uniflan Bay, and sent a meflage, little expended bv they Bey, whole court was thrown into condensation. The language of menace was disa vowed, and all intention of coming to a rupture with the United States d-Atkimed. The itibfifling differences between the Bev and Commodore Rod gers issued in the former pro posing, and the latter acquiesc ing in this midion, with the view of making the proper assurances and reprefentacions to the Pre sident of the United States.— We understand that according to the uiage of. the Barbary powers, this million is to be considered as adiftinfton paid to the United States, as Jthofe powers never fend ministers but to nations whose power they hold in great relpeft. According, likewise, to their customs, it becomes the duty of our government to provide for the lodging and maintenance of the ambaflador. The house, lately occupied by Mr. Stelle, has accordingly been taken for the reception of the minifler, who, no doubt, will be received with diftmguilhed honors.—- Sadi Suliman Mala Manni brings we understand, four fine Arabian horses as presents. Nat. Intel. . ... t It is expefted lays the Inde pendent Chronicle, that on the meeting of Congress the impor tant business of national com merce will be fully considered. That measures will be adopted to give proreftion to our pro perty and seamen ; that the Bri tish nation will feci the weight of our trade, not only within thei manufafturing towns, but the islands. We have strength in this species of warfare, which would command the attention & refped of that nation. Our imports of their fantaftical arti cles of fafhion, which only serve to vitiate our habit and intro duced idleness and diflipation a mong our citizens, are the main springs which enable them to enrich themselves at our cost. Let us only ceale to barter our national honor for gewgaws and aritcles of foppery and we might bid defiance to that power which now wantonly sports wi h our sovereignty and independence. The fuppreftion of a cargo of British manufactures would be more powerful than 10 fail of the line, for the latter might be captured, and occasion a loss of millions, but the former would enforce its operation with an ef ficacy too powerful to be con cealed, attended with the flrving or millions of dollars, which are yearly remitted for fuperfiuities. Let us know our strength, as it relates to Britain, and we fiiould not long hesitate in putting it into operation. Ships of war are the strength of Britain, but a non intercourse would soon dis mount every cannon of their navy. On the fubjeft of Spanish captures, (fays the United States’ Gazette) we learn that many of them are owing to the want of proper papers, such as are re quired by the treaty which ex ists between the two govern ments. ‘That treaty (in the 17th article we believe, but not having it before us we cannot be positive as to the article) re quires that our veifth should , be furmfhed with passports of a particular description, not the confuiar passports which cur merchants a r e in the ha lit of obtaining and rely in* upon, ar.d the want cf such as are dcßri bed in the treaty, is alledged as the reason why lb many of our vcliels have been captured and carried into Algefiras. Wc arc confidently allured, that the government of Spain, so far from authorifing the cap ture of American vessels, have recently issued circular orders to all their officers to treat the American flag with particular refpeft. As this information may be relied upon, we hope soon to find our commerce relieved from one of the embarralfments, under which it has lo long been laboring. An elegant dinner was given to General Eaton, by the citi zens of Richmond, on Thurs day the 14th ult. as a manilcf tation of relpeft: for his charac ter, arid gratitude for his late services. Among those present, were the Members of the Exe cutive Council, Judges of the Court of Appeals, General Court, Chief Justices, dec. — Ihe toads drank were fenlible and appropriate. We feleft the following:— e -‘ The Ameri can, who arpidH the Catacombs and the Pyramids of Egypt, could, make man oiily his ftu dy.”—” Lieut. O’Bannon of the marines and midlhipman Mann ; tae heroes, who fii ft planted the American banners on the walls of Derne.”—“ T ire warring na tions of Europe : they destroy each other, while the Americans give laws to Barbary.” —“ Great B.itain—why will Use dig up the hatchet of animosity, by condemning our vessels and im pressing our brethren.”—The Rights of Woman.” We have for fome time, been in poffcflion of a faft, which may not be uninteresting to the readers of novels. The novel under the title of “ Ike Sorrows of IVerter ”, lias generally been supposed to be a fiftion \ but it is a real history of events which did aftually take place. A gentleman from abroad, has related to us, that he was well acquainted with Lieut. Immelhaufen , of his Bri tanic Majesty’s 60th Regiment of foot, who is a full coffin to Charlotte. Lieut. Immelhaufen informed him, that the events, as related in (< The Sorrows of IVer tcr,” were ftriftly true, except that Cba/rlotte was not so hand some as lhe had been there re presented—and that she is ftili living—while IVerter moulders in the dull. The above may be relied cn. The gentleman who related it, is of undoubted veracity - and several German officers of his acquaintance, in the Briiifh service also assured him of its 1 being ftriftly true, they having known the parties. *■ Phil.
