The following extracl of a letter from a Member ot COngrefs from this State, written to one of his Condiments, is publiihtkl at the requeft of a Philadeiphia, April 5, Among the titimrrous advanta ges refulting from an amicable fet tlement of our differences with France would he, that Public Mea inures would i.ff'imc their true cha rafter, and no longer be hackneyed between a ft ate of Peace and a ftate of War, and alternately applied 10 either, as may ferye to carry mea-fure-, lefs calcula ed to promote the Public Weal, than partial and local Left this remaik ftiould be thought too general; I willftatej that wheri wieafuTes have been brought forward which were applii cable to a ftate of War, and oppofed on that ground, the anfwer has been, that We were at War, and lo on the contrary. Such was the language in the re lent lelBon, on the queftion for the reduftiorl of the Army while, on the other hand, fome profe fling to poffefs no confpicuous taler.ts of mind, are calling it a ftate of Peace and National Happinefs at the time, too, we are receiving almoft daily neWa of numbers of our citizens being fiainin battle at lea, andmillions of dollars expended on armies at home. Waving alt pretenfions to determine between this political clafhing, I only mean to prove the pofition laid down, by a recurrence to fafts, and that Peace'and War cannot exift at the fame timer, with the fame parties. And whether the following fatts, vide nee National Profperity and Individual Happinefs, thole equally intereftert 'with myfelf will determine. wit, that our Annual! Expenditure'haa Fwelled to near Fifteen Millions of Dollars, on a Revenue butt little above Nine Millions that ou'r Taxes 1iave been re-guiarlyincreafi'ng that our Public jieht is ftill augmented and that the Government is borrowing from three to five millions of dollars, at anintereltof 8 percent," The Governor of Jamaica has ordered the free importation of flieepil hbgs, poultry, fmall live ftock of all kinds, and all forts of fruit, falted and other proviftons, and lumber of every deicnption, to be permitted from all nentral and other!

The following is an extract of ah offidal letter, from Capt. Morris, Tof the frigate Adams, dated 8th March. On my laf cruire, which commenced oh that, 24th of January, and expired oh the 1 ft of March, I re-captured'the( American Schooner Isabella, of from Portland bound to Trinidad, a prize to the French Corvette, Le Berceau and captured three French privateers -the fit ft Le Gembcau, a fmall boat, with 4 Swivels and 16 men the fe-cond, the L'Hereufe, a fchooner of 35 tons, 4 guns', and 76 men had taken two prizes, which redu ced her to 29 men, threw 3 of her guns, boat, 1 pare fpars, over in the chace.

New rice is 35 to 36s. per Cw't. and all in great demand." a Utter from a mercantile houft in Amjieraam, dated late in December. 44 This city has at prefeni the profpeft of again becoming the great mart for the fupply of the continent and of reluming the rank and importance it formerly held among the commercial cities of Europe, The ill effeas which relulted to GTeatn-Britain herfelf from the bloc kade of our ports, has tended to bring about a change of fyftem in this regard, and they are now de clared free for ail' neutral navi gation. It is faid that to the ftaghatibn produced by the blockade, and the late invifion of Holland, we may in a great meaiure attribute tne dil- alters which have within a hort time pa ft overwhelmed the mercan tile world.

Nothing can prpve more clearly than its importance in the commercial fcales, while the firm manner in which the merchants of this place have Withftood the wreck of bankruptcies in Europe, muftat once, tend to fhew the weight of their capitals, and to eftablifh anroaa, a connaence jn tne prp- denccortheir negotiations I cannot but congratulate you particularly, that the intercourle between the two countries ihouid be reftored, at a time when the pro bable adjuftmeht of the difputes be tween Fiance and the United States, will open a new and an advanta geous connection with the French colonies, from whence fupply of Welt-India produce can be drawn, for which you will find here a valuable market, efpecially if peace fhould be made with the Emperor, as that would revive a large demand from the interior of Germany. Capt. Bell arrived at New York in the fcoonr.r American, informs that on the 21ft of March; ofFGua daloupe, he fell in with the United States ingate John tain of which informed him, that the United States floop of war Merrimack, hadbeeh taken by a French fhip of war, off Cayenne. By letters received the week pail at Wethersfield, Connecticut, it appears, that Capt. Tryon, in the United States (hip Connecticut, has funk a French fhip of 18 guns, and driven on fhore a privateeer fchr.
