'Moreau had done 6o; many services tot country, had gained two many victories equal to those of, Bonaparte to render him acceptable to a mind of such stamp and character ai the First Consul's. ioriaparte's jealousy is at least equal, to his ambition, and the reputation of Moreauy.

often and" so justly called the' prided, of France, must have, worked that jealousy to a pitch of pha-enzy, VAnd another circumstance vtoo must have contiibutcd -tq produce that effect. Moreau, cohMous of the dignity ol his character' and the importance ot; his services, never wpuld condescend to be the tool and creature of Bona- parte. He disdained to swell the- vanity of the Consul by base adulation, and retiring'from the brilliant a re of vie to ry to private li fc, a f-forded, by the modesty 01 his demeanor, a most marked and. honourable contrast to the pomp and affectation' of Bonaparte and his But these circumstances, it may be said, do not prove that Moreau was innocent, that he was not implicated in the conspiracy. He was more than indiscreet, it seems, in his remarks, upon the measures of Government -and this, in a country to which Bonaparte boasts he has given freedom, is brought forward as a serious charge against such a nian as Moreau.

1 The Pope has addressed to Bo-1 naparte a brief relative to the ecclesiastical affairs of Germany. Its object is to show necessity of taking effectual means to maintain the catholic religion in empire, lest the ecclesiastical might undergo the fate of the temporal estates of the church. With this view," observes the Pope to the consul, We have resolved, to solicit thy aid, beloved Son in esus Christy and entreat thee to support us in an affair of such moment. When we laboured for the restoration of religion, and its securitv and tranquility in Germany, thou dijist support us with so much zeal, that under God, our thanks are. due to thee for all that religion has obtained in taat country, after the fearful storms and calamities to vvhich it has been, exposed.

We hereby present to thee a new opportunity, to shew; thy devotedness to the catholic religion to acquire new glory, convinced that thou, after the numerous proofs thou hast given of thy 'good will, wilt not reiuse. at our entreatv: thv ---jt support to the catholic religion, but will strenuously aid our endeavors in the important affair, 5 From a late English Paper; Last month we inserted from the Liverpool papers an account of some large importations of gold and silver specie from Philadlphia, chiefly the coins of the United States. We are glad to say it still continues from different ports of America into Liverpool, so that we shall be able to import the gold and silver eagles of America as last as the mint of the United States can -coin them. The im portation of British goods in Ame rica is still increasing, and the exchange is.five per cent, in favour of Britain. We are happy to inform our readers that the Glasgow rhanufaturers have also received remittances of late from America in gold and silver eagles.

The fol lowing we extract from the Glas gow paper: Arrived the Sarah, Captain Snowden, from Charleston, with 650 bags cotton, and nineteen boxes of specie the boxes of gold and silver are addressed to viz. Lindsay, Dalrym-ple, Dickson, Arhdtt, Austin, George Wilson, all manufacturers in Glasgow." No; wonder gold and silver are scarce The Spaniards, it is said, will hot permit the inhabitants on the Toiri-bigiiee river to export produce to New-Orleans, unless they pay a duty of 12 1-2 per cent, at the i-lVIb is thought, stt Nejir-Orleans, that the American government, as an act of justice to their citizens, ought to impose a Similar duty on all their txportations to Pensacola and Mobile which would perhaps restore the Spa niards to a more editable line of conduct. -A Line of Stages has been esta blished between Richm6rid anci Staiinton, in Virginia-Fare for pas sengers nine dollars -way. passengers to pay eight cents per milei The Shares of the Maryland U- nion Bank which were subscribed for little more than a week ago, haYe aircaay aavancea len per cent. inva- 1 aware ot tne caution an4 circiimspecaoti subject the Judges of the Estate, at their last meeting in conference, decided that such plea was good and barred the plaintiff's recovery.

It is a little unfortunate that the. aajudicatiori of one court did not take. place early nou gh for the o-ther court to have considered its binding authority, aiut thereby rendered the administration of justice uniform in the courts. Fraud oil Underwriters In Octo-' ber last, one Thomas Shivers, resi-. ding at the Havannah, inclosed to Capt Samuel Packard, of Providence, R.

I. sundry papers purporting to be a 'regular invoice, and bills of lading, for 360 boxes of said to have been shipped in the schooner Eliza, John Nelson, master, and consigned to the said Capt. Samuel Packard, with orders to insure the same, which was accordingly affected to the amount of 12,700 dollarsv in the office of the Providence Insurance Company. On the 3rd of February following) tiie said Nelson appeared with a regular, protest stating that said schooner was cast away cn the I9ih of 0)1 the Florida shore, and totally 16st, himself and one other person only saved Capt. Packard beim then on a voyage to the Havannah, and having since returned, informs, that he discovered to his satisfaction that no such ship ment was ever made, said schooner having been at the Havannah when he, was there and having since in tercepted a letter from Nelson to Shivers, fully confirming; the whole to have been a fraud.

As he mav have attempted other frauds in diffe rent of the Union, editors of papers the sea-ports are requested to insert this article. The. schooner Jane (savs a Frank fort paper of March 31) the property of Mr. John Mullanphy, was launch ed this morning with great ease. She is a handsome vessel, apparent ly well calculated for sailing, and a- dapted! to the West-India trade burthen between 80 and 90 tons.

The appearance of two schooners an chored before our which only 1 few years ago was the hunting camp ot uncivilized man, is a truly novel one and must convev to the patriotic heart, very pleasurable emo tions indeed. If so much has been accomplished in a few years un der such embarrassing and discou- raging difficulties, what mind can conceive the extent to which com merce may be. carried on the tributa ry streams, of Ohio in the fcoursc uf .1 t.i ren or twelve years, oy tne assistance )f enterprising men, possess ca pital and public spirit, to enable them 'o prosecute so laudable a pursuit. and although the western waters af- brd numerous situations: where the business of ship building may be ear ned on to advantage, few exceed Frankfort, for vessels suited to the West-India trade. The practicability of descending the river from this place with ease and safety, having been -well ascertained, it possesses advantages which cannot fail to re commend it to the entcrprizing mer chant.

Capt. Shaler, ofthefship tlising Sun, arrived at New-York, left Amsterdam on the rth March, at which time the severity of the weather had obliged the British squadron to relinquish the blockade of the Texel; The Baiayian government had put all the lighter? in requisition: the French were con structing fortifications at the Hel- den and New-Diep and the arri val of a French General to take the command of the Army destined to embark from HoUand, gave strength to the opinion that the Invasion would riot much longer be delayed. Only one British armed vessels had been seen off the coast for some time back.

Markets for coffee sugar were good.
