NOTICE* A ^ Advertiacment for the sale of Sundry • ro|»erty, conveyed by me some years ®S°* to Pittuian and Woodson, having up* peared in this paper ; I cannot permit this I flagrant breach of friendship and politeness | on the part of Mr. William Woodson, to ap j *" public print, without counteracting i those impressions which his advertisement may make upon the public mind, That this I resort to obtain a poultry balance due to him, has procecdqd from the not) payment or h refusal to p.%—So far from that. Pro perty to the amount of six thousand dollars, was conveyed to Pittman and Woodson, in which a thousand or eleven hundred dollars due to those Gentlemen were included_ 1his conveyance was unasked for by either of them.— The origin of the deed is known the Gentlemen, and particularly to Mr. V\ oedson, it Was foreign from the purposes he has used it. The friendship reposed in him, has been converted to lucrative purposes, nnil an exposition of my feelipgs and proper ty has been the result of Uhj confidence pla ced in Mr. Woodson, as my friend—A very considerable sum has beca paid, the poultry balance of 4 or S $00, has never been asked fm*—T lie first indication of his want of this balance, was Jiis advertisement, of at least 81000 worth of property, at a time. "Mr. . 11 os* was from home, making an arrange ment with his father for the payment of tins debt,'and others. It is with reluctance, I have noticed this advertisement, but I do rf t despond, that the public should think that unwillingness to do Mr. Woodson an act of justice, has gi- ! ven me to this unjustifiable resor' of his. ° I JULIANNA ROSS. | October 12. eptlflO i EMPLOYMENT,.

June late spavisd news. Boston-, Oct; J The gentlemen who arrived at the Eastward in a prize schooner, from | Cadiz,.arrived in town last evening. One of them favored me with the loan of n file of Cadiz and Madrid papers, the former to Cm 2r(h July, the |«rJ ter to the 2vld, containing the decree, for the re-establishment of the ingnh sitiop, which was received at Cadiz the ^’th July, the day before thegen t'cpieo left, and was announced bv the ringing of be Us, firing of cannon, pro cessions, of the clergy, &o. and other demonstrations of joy. Tue paper* contain nothing else ve ry striking, exent. that the ihqofci tionand Bull Feasts are the order of : the day as in good old times ; and Te Deum for the re-rstxblishment of his holiness the Pope Pics the ltth, and fulsome adultery addresses from the Clergy and Nobi Ity to the King, for his lciqd attention to the ecclesiastical and Aristocratic tl interests. The gentlemen inform me, that some time before they left, Mr. Kecno went to Algiers as agent from the A tnerican Consul appointed to Tunis, hut who' was ut Cadiz to endeavour to i eff*ct the release of the Americans held in slavery th<»re. and was author ised to give 8*000 each to ransom them. To this proposition the I >ey would not consent, but observed l he could not let them go,as he wished ! [ to udd to the number of i.is A mericun > j captives. | While M. Keene was there, a sailor . (said to ho uu American) deserted' from ft British frigate and arrived at Algiers, and embraced their religion. This mao was claimed by the British Consul ; hut the Dey would not deli-1 ver him up, on account of his having embraced their religion. Mr. Keene1 then prevailed on the British Consul I to use his influence to effect the re lease of one or more of the Americans | In lien of the deserter-—this was ac complished, the Dey agreeing to give I up two •( them by paying $ 3000 each, fc’fnah was finally accepted, and they hud arrived at Cadiz. . While ^tr. Keene was fhere, a Bri* «s,i frigate was at Algiers, and put on shore four impressed Americans wliolmd refus 'd to do duty any longer, and he very >>rtunatcly heard of it, procured them a boat, and sent them across to Gibraltar before it was known in tho city. f be papers, they state, contained much matter relative to the Princess Charlotte, but nothing .new.

A gjniJpiman who arrived last e vealog at i 1 o’clock, in the eastern stago, and with whom we have had an opportunity of conversing a few mi nutes, left London Aug. 6, and Hali fax Sept. 7. He informs that the British com missioners departed for Ghent Ang. 3 —that when ho left England Lord Hill had not sailed, hut there was still talk of his coining to America—that the general feeling in Engiand was very hostile to this country, but that the Prince Regent’s speech prorogue ing Parliament August 6, wore ra ther a pacific aspect; that while in Halifax, which was but a short time, he had noknowledge of any expedition preparing from that place. He brought London papers to Aug. d, part of which he put into the mail for New York. We were favored with a hasty perusal of several papers of a late date, which contain some articles of considerable interest, hut not of sufficient importance to require us to stop the press. The Princess of \\ ales was about departing for the continent. The Empress Maria Lou isa is not going to Elba, as had been asserted. There were considerable disturbances in Switzerland. I’he London Sun of Aug. 7 pretends to give the terms which will be requir- j ed of this country, viz. to give up the British co \st fishery, and the whole of Lakes Erie and Ontario : to have no military posts on the northern fron- I tier, and to guarantee to the Indians I the whole country north of the O hio, . | lifts tow, Octcber 4. [A J-undna Price Current of August 2, 4 1 part of which we shall copy tomorrow n contains the following note. "The Gazette of Saturday last aunounce# the appointment of three British Com mis* sioners to meet the American deputation on the Continent, for the purpose of amicable negotiations ; n circumstance calculated in itself to depress the prices of American ar ticles, were it not that the most vigorous pros sccution of the war is at the same time a vowedly determined on by this government, and that peace is by none expected to be 60 immediate a consequence of the discussions, jlpvto’deprive the holders of American pros (fitcls of the advantage which small stocks and Inadequate supplies impart to their in terests.” We are informed by a gentleman from Wiscasset, that an entire sergeant's guard, which had deserted from Castine, had ar-, rived at that place and enlisted in orr ar my. Montreal, Sc/it. 23. In onr last numbCv we iusnrted all the in formation we had then been able to collect, relative to our late truly unfortunate expe dition on this frontier, and we have not sinca I been turnished with any mo:e satisfactory intelligence nn the subject : we have, howe ! ver, been favored with the Northern Senti nel (published at Burlington) of the 16th ; instant, from which we have extracted some of the enernv’s details of that ill fated event, ogether with General Macomb's order on the occasion. Much exaggeration will no doibtbe disc <verei in h^ 5tat:ro-.nu of this heroic commander, but the main object of our regret and mortification temains to be reflected upon, with no common degree of astonishment, the extent of our Ios., howe* ver precipitate me retreat may have been, we cannot conceive to have been equal to * that blazoned by the enemy, either in men, stores or provisions ; but it has unfortunate* ly been much too great in every respect. No, thing could have been more fortunate for President Madison, than this disastrous e* vent—the news will have been received most probably in timefor his Message to Congress at Ulodget’s Hotel, on the 16th inst. and al though assembled insight of the ruins of the Capital, our late visit to Washington will al most be forgotten in the splendid triumph of tlje American arms on Lake Champlain, naturally eager to catch at every means that can tend to prop the views of the adininistra* tion, the national pride will be raised, and the vanity of the people will be swelled moro by the bombast & circu j.staoce. than by th^ extent of advantage they have gained in the result. Arrived here on Friday last from Burling# ton, Lieut. Drew of H* Majesty’s late brig Linnet, and on Tuesday last Captain Pring, late comuifindtr of the same vessel ; we un derstand that both these gaiiant officers are on their parule for a limited period, PoKTrfWtrUTH, Oct. 1. The « Washington” 7i, of which * Captain Hull has heen superintending the building, was launched 10 day at half past twelve o'clock, and I am hap* py to say without the least accident or impediment. She made the most mag nificent launch that can be Tjonceived, and m without exception the most el egantly modeled ship I ever saw. I write you this amidst the thunder of cannon, in compliment to this highly pleasing event. EASTERN FLEET GONE TO HALIFAX. The Newburjport Herald, of th* 30Hi ult. gives the following article, whioh is presumed to be the latest in formation we have from the Eastern shore. “ We last evening conversed with a gentleman direct from Castine, who informs, that tire fleet left there last Thursday for Halifax. The lady of the naval secretary, Mr. Martar, went in the fleet, with several ottier ladies, besides other things which were seat, that wontd not luave been, nad they been bound on an expedition. Our in* formant was conversant with Mr. Map* tar, who assured him tueir destination was Halifax. The 98th regiment on ly embarked in the fleet;—about 1200 were left to garrison Castine, and Ihey were rendering the place as strong as possible. Nxw-York, October5. BY THE STEAMBOAT.
