Prussian minister, on the passage inthe king's speech announcing the increase of his army, and the reply of the chamber promising funds to carry his majesty's patriotic views into effect. It is probable that the note has the secret suDoort of Russia; for the arch po-

politicians of the north may not be pleased to see a great national army created in France, which the political conduct of St. Cyr, the new minister at war, is calculated spedily to produce. His levees are crowded with the retired half pay oflicers, who are so eager for em ployment, that they would exert themselves to recruit men in their several districts, so that an army of veterans might be embodied in a few months. But on theoth er side, if Russia shall join England and Austria in opposing this official complaint, and shall only demand that until the allied forces are to be withdrawn no great augmentation of the French army shall take place; then it will be said, that the angry note was presented by M. de Goltz, on the first promulgation of the king's speech, without instructions to that effect from his court. From the continued silence on this momentous affair, we are inclined to believe that this is likely to be the result. The London Star, of December 17, speaking of the arrival of the United States' ship Franklin, says ' Some may feel a little sore at the political progress of our quondum colonists, in thus being able

to send out ships of such a class bearing an independent flag, anil carrying an ambassador to their former parent. But such a feeling is unworthy oi-u great nation. May the period bMiot tar distant when we shall have to hail the arrival of an ambassador from the Spanish colonies of America, in circumstances of as honorable a state as those in which we are now pleased to behold the ambassador from our own former colonies, come among us as the representative of a distinct and independent people I" Amen

New fork, Feb. 13. The United States sloop of war TTnrnpt is fittinz out at this port

for a voyage. We understand she is ordered to Cape Henry, Hayti, to claim restitution for property belonging to American merchants, unjustly seized by Christophe, some years since. It is rumored that commodore Lewis goes out as agent for the United States. THE INDIAN TRADE The Detroit Gazette mentions the receipt of a communication by governor Cass from the secretary of War, expressing the determination of the president, that the Indian trade, within the territory of the United States shall hereafter be enjoyed exclusively by the citizens of the same. This arrangement involving as it does the peace and security of , our whole norh western frontier, will prove of great benefit to the United States even in a national point of view. Hitherto the Briush North West Company have

carried on this trade almost pat tirely; and the influence of the British government, through this company was of extent equal to the limits of the traffic. This important branch of commerce, being in future in the hands of our own citizens, will without doubt have a most beneficial effect on the minds of the Indians, by infusing into them just ideas of the views of our government, and of the extent of our power & resources. Pet InteU MR. MEADE. We sincerely rejoice that the case of Mr. Meade has seriously attracted the attention of the representatives of the people. It is obvious that there is no hope of his liberation by the Spanish government, unless the constituted authorities of the U, States interfere energetically for his relief. The correspondence between Mr. Erving and the ministers of state Cevallos and Pizarro, demonstrates very clearly that the cabinet of Spain has no intention to do justice in the case. Such a diplomatic shuffling as they have manifested, is in the highest degree dishonorable; and it ought to be met with a spirit of firmness that will awaken the Spanish sovereign. After beard'

ing and beating the British Lion on account of impressment, it will be a pretty thing indeed if we submit to the incarceration of a respectable citizen by so miserable a court as that of Madrid. Mr. Meade has been too long neglected; and the gentleman who brought the subiect before the

house of representatives has done himself infinite credit, and will unquestionably be sustained by the opinions of the people. Now that Gavelston and Amelia Island are suppressed,' and the terrible apprehensions of danger from that quarter begin to subside, we should like to see a little action and fewer words used towards Old Spain. JI C. Gaz. In the house of Delegates of Virginia, the proposition to tax the branches of the bank of the United States in that state, has received a decided negative, by a vote of 127" to 24. Hat.

To our fellow Canpentea We wish to prevent imposition if possible. A man who calls himself Isaac Hussey, and says he is son of George Hussey of Baltimore, come to us on the 20th of December last, destitute of money and clothes and requested us to give him employment. He said that he started for Vincennes ; that he has a brother there ; and that cm his way he was robbed of his money and clothes. Having compassion on his indigent circumstances, we furnished him with clothing to the amount of 43 dol-, lars. He continued in our employment until Monday iat, at which time he left us, neir.&f indebted about twenty dollars. In this time he was three weeks sick, we took particular care of him, he being destitute of friends. He is about five feet seven inches high, fair complexion, down look, red hair and whiskers, had on a brown broad cloth coat, mixed grey waistcoat and pantaloons, & an old white hat ; he affects to be a great Methodist, but is a mass, of deception.
