Mr. Aflieron, the britifh Agent for the province of New- Brunswick, writes thus explicitly of the Fishe ries: “London, July 10. “ The Intercourse between the United States and the King’s colo nies is to be Rriftly carried on in British veflels, and none others. “ The Americans are excluded from the shore fifheries, and are not allowed Jo come into our harbors, ■as formerly to fifli; they are not to poflefs in this refped no other right than the fubje&s of foreign nations; which by “ the law of nations, is limited to three leagues from the coast.” Bonst. Gaz. BRITISH OUTRAGE. The British have again com menced their former infamous pradice of firing on American ves sels without the leaf! provication. The American fch’r Mink, captain Hammond on his passage from De troit to Buffalo, was fired upon by the British armed schooner Nawafh, Lt. Drury, without the leaß . of fence, and without ever hailing her. Capt. H. after being fired upon hoisted American colors, supposing that to be the objed of the British, but was fired upon the fecbnd time. The British officer ordered a boat to be sent a board the Nawafh— . the boat was got out, and Capt. H, went aboard, and after being qhef tioned by the British officer relative to the news of Detroit,-&c. was or dered to return to his veflcl with- L out having any reason afiigned for [ this daring outrage. $ * Geo. Argus. Canada . —lt is already known to our readers, that it is in contem plation by the British government to efiablifh a considerable naval ■ force on the Lakes, which bound i the Canadian frontier. The mill tary force in that part of the Bri tish dominions is Rated at thousand men, and we have-the, authority of the New-York|Gazette for the fad, ten thousand troops were expeded thither from Eng land, & that the British areftrength ening their fortifications at Isle au Noix. Thefip are called precau tionary mealutes. Nat. lnt. Unprecedented Phenomenon. We have conversed with several gentei men, of undoubted veracity from the county of Ulßer, New-York, who ail agree in the following very extraordinary relation : That they have conversed with several credible persons from Mar bletown, in that county, and they mention the names of persons well known to the editor of this paper ; and these persons assert and declare themselves ready to make oath, that the Rones lying in two fields there, on leveral luccellive days, role from the ground, to the height of three and tour feet, and moved along, slowly & horizontally, from thirty to fixry feet; and that a Rw of them even mounted over the jtops ol the trees ! That the perfoas who firft beheld thele astonishing performan ces, were disbelieved by the neigh borhood ; but that all those who came to lee if there was any truth in the accounts, are prepared to lwear to them. The last perform ance was in an open field, without wood or cover near it. We understand that a gentleman from Kinglton has taken means to have every circumitance accurately verifieiLby affidavits: which will probably be laid before the public, in a week or two. N. V. Courier; New-York, Gttcber 28. Ingenious Viltany . Last evening between 7 and 8 o’clock the in habitants residing at the lower end of Greenwich-ftriet, were alarmed with the cry of stop thief! stop thief! This immediately drew into the street a gaeat number of men and boys, running in all dire&ions.— After the alarm lublided, it appear ed that a couple of long whilkered well drolled (harpers had been caught in the ad of robbing the money drawer of a Grocery (tore near the Battery. One ol the fel lows Hepped into the (lore, and the other remained at the door who alked lor tome iiquor. While the Grocer’s back was turned drawing the liquor, the fellow who entered flily thrust a slender piece of whale bone, about a foot long, through a small hole that had been made in the counter to drop bills through into the drawer, and by twilling it around the end having been dipped in tar or something ot the lame na ture, he fifhed up a couple of Bank Bills, but the Grocer happening to turn round too quick caught him in the lad and leized him by the collar; A fcuifle erilued, and the Grocer finding he was like to be overpowered cried out itop thief ! Upon which the villain gave him a knock down blow, and took to his heels with his accomplice.—— They bbffi ran up Greenwfch-ftreet crying stop duel! Rop thief! as loud as they could and thus made their escape. In*the feufle the fel low loft his hat and whalebone, to which was (licking when pickdd two §ank Bills? The fame trick fias no doubt been pradifed before, and when the money was miffed the clerks have been cenTur ed. # * Herald. Foreign News. FR OM SOUTH “AMERICA. | * The ship United States, from Havre de Grace spoke on the 28th ult, a British ship 50 days from Montevideo, the maf|er of which informed that that Province & Bue nos-Ayres, were at war with each other. Both the parties had de clared their independence of the king of Spaifi ; and the objed qf the war Was to efiablifh who should govern, each party claiming the right. The government of Buenos Ayres, had fitted out a fleet under the command of an American, by the name of Brown, : which had captured the whole of the Monti vuidean fleet, & obtained the com plete command of the whole river. The fleet was next to failtor th£ coast. ot Chili, to giije battle to the Roy aliils in that Quarter. JSufinefs at Montevideo was at a goods of all kinds plenty and cheap, and nothing in demand but arms, am munition and loldiers* cloathins. A treaty was signed at Paris the 27th of August, & ratified at Lond on the lit of September. The principal articles are— The integrity of the Flench ter • ritory to be refpeded. France to pay a contribution of 600 millions of francs.

The fortrefles of Strafburg, Metz, Little, and Befancon, to be held by the allies. From the “ Irish Magazinefor August, 1815. Melancholy c6iisequencts'i>oin the accession of I.on is Will. Hißory, faithful and terrible, in all her details, so inftruclive to pos terity, so deicriptive of tyrants, has not recorded a more brutal and unfeejing example of ambition and pride, titan is exhibited in the perse vering obstinacy which this disre garded man has shown by forcing himfelf to.a throne, through the Wood of the people whom he hy pocritically calls hfs children.- When one reflects on the means this tyrant has employed, and the monsters he has aflbeiated with, and the fanguir.ary pailion which has marked his progress to the French capital, we cannot suppress the hor ror we feel at the impiety of kings, who manifefting not the Uighteft repugnace'to (luaghter and defla tion, have the audacity to fay, on the ruins of fields & cities, among putrid palpitating carcases, that they are called on to reign by the grace of God!!I Will tyrants continue ! to intuit humanity by such logic ? j Will Louis, who is uuknowp to the prtfent race of Frenchmen, pretend to fay, they have called him to the throne, in preference to the glori ous hero who embeilifired and rais ed the French name, who never buffered France to ; be polluted by the invader, or disfigured by op preffion to import a man who had \ ibid the trade, navey and indußry J of Franse to England, and (addled dtet France with the expense of hiring 600,000 of the northern sa vages, who defiled the foil and dishonored the wositn, in the pro ceflion which copy-eyed Louis over the bodies of I (*),<> )(r Frenchmen to a throne, wjuift irJis decreed v# again fixes#? with the blood of a Bourbon ? If Frenchmen were the only fcy this calamity s fc our feelings perhaps would not be® so affeded ; but when weconfider the perpetuity of this dynaAjj?, which has mounted over tombs to power, and calculates on its security by sur rendering the refyurcts of France to the monopoly of England, in return for her proicClion, ct-ill be fatal to freedom through Europe, we lament witlfour fellow fufferers of every creed and climate. Al- ‘ ready have our domestic enemies celebrated the second yet urn of the brutalized Louis, our ci ties and villages have seen catholic blood flowing from the orange bayonet, to celebrate the accefliqn of a catholic monarch. We f .ared the return of Louis, because ! we have experienced misfortunes ar.d profeription as France was finking. We were correct Jin our apprehen fions; the firft abdication of Napo leon was recorded by tire Sher.cock maflacre, & followed by the Grif fithing. Clones, and Armagh mur ders in several quarters. The Huf hoe Law, the mock cqnfpiraey at Naas, and the abolition of trial by jury followed in hasty fucceflioq. The (2th of last July. Dublin fur-1 nifhed another official example off. what we are to expect in Ireland,! from the connivance of a man whO|/ has fold his own country, its fame,J( its trade and colonies to England.
