You will recoiled, without doubt, fir, that thofe decrees were adopted in retalia¬ tion for the muhiplicd mtafuics of England again!! the rights of neutrals, and especially a^attift thofe of the United States ; and af¬ ter this new pi oof of deference to the wifhes of your government, bis mnjclty the emperor has mom to believe, thdt it will make new efforts to withdraw the American commerce from the yoke which the prohibitory a6ts of Great Britain have impofed upon it. You will at the lame time oblerve, fir, that the clearly exprelfed intention of my govern¬ ment i", that the re»u-wal of commercial in- ttriouife between France and the UnifeJ States, cannot alter the fyllcni of exclufiort adopted by all Fm ope again ft all the pro- dudts of the foil, or tiie manufacture of Eng¬ land or tier colonic- ; a fyRem, the wifdom and advantages of which arc already provid¬ ed by its developcment and its fuccefs. And of which alio, ther United States, as an agri¬ cultural and commercial power, have partic¬ ular intcrcil in aiding and battening the com¬ pletion. Moreover, fir, this meafure of my government, a;.d thofe which yours may think proper to adopt will prove the inutili¬ ty of the efforts of the common enemy to break the ties of friendship which a humane and generous policy has necelTarily formed between France and the United States, and which the actual critic ought to draw clofer; We ought, hereafter * fir, to hope, or rather we mav be a flu red. that new relations ft-iU more clofe and more friendly, are about to be formed between Americans and Frenchmen, and that thefe two people will be more than ever convinced, that their glory, their inter- ell and their happinefc, mufl eternally confe- cratc the principle and the confervation of thefe relations, I feize with eagernefs this occalion, i]\\ of renewing to you the aflur- ance of my high confideratfon.

It has been, for fome time, feared and predicted, that our affordidg French privat- eera ihelier, comfort and protection in our harbors—with purmiflion to bring in then- booty, the moil of it, probably, the very booty which they had plundered from our fellow citezens-, after having burnt or funk their veffeL on the high feas : and alio, li- cence to relit, and openly recruit in our prin¬ cipal cities; I lay, this unprecedented courfe of things, in a country prof. Hing kielf neu¬ tral, it has long been apprehended, would produce a fcene of RIOT and MURDER, fimilar to that which it is now our painful duty to record ; we give the particulars jull ad they come to us, in extracts from the fol¬ lowing letter, written upon the fpot : Copy of a letter to Mejfrs. Albert 0g* den iff Co. of this city^ dated " Savannah, Nov. 16, 1 ?11- " We were an eye witnefs in our city on Thurfday night kit, and on Friday, to the greateft fcene of bloodihed and murder that has happened in this place iince the war. " A part of the crew French privateers then lyin; port, one of them ready to iaii, had a rencontre with a party of Amer¬ ican failors on Thurfday night, & killed one man, and wounded two others fo bad that they died the 1- -....% iKo *v*ort** nr or two in expedition wswfct on foot for tlicir deitrudion. The bodies of thofe that were killed were brought for¬ ward on one of the wharves for the purpofe of burial, and long be¬ fore the hour of moving, a Iargd number of citizens, captains and failors had collected : when thev w J were fo exafperated at the figlit of their murdered countrymen^ that before the funeral rites were per¬ formed, they made preparation to take forcible polfeflion of the pri¬ vateers. As foon as they entered upon the wharf (Anciaux's) where the iirft veffel lay, they were fired upon by three Frenchmen, who had fecreted themfelves in a flore loft (Uupont's) immediately oppo- fite the privateer, and where ail the fmall arm's belonging to her were ftorcd.—Thefe villains fired 6 ihot in quick fucceflion. One of them ftruck capt. Miller, of the Champ- lin, in the riglit eye, and pailed immediately through the left* Three fhot took effect "upon a failoT carrying the American flag, who lived but a lhort time. One puffed through the veft of captain Fountain and another grazed the nofeofcapt. Pierce. Ihey how¬ ever boarded the privateer, and foon took poffefiion, run her acrofs the river, and fet her on fire. An attempt was alio made to diflodge the poffeilors of the ftore loft, Which could not be immediately effected ffom the manner they had barracaded the door and windows. They were, however, forccd, and fome blood was fpilt before they ave Up, when fuch was the f u r y V)f the populace, then collected in great numbers, that two of them Were thrown out of the upper win- do a ; cDne was Jailed dead upon t.,c IpoV, ,i frrnnd died t)»c next day from his wounds ; the third one made hisefcape out of a back door, but before he reached the top of the Huff was both ihot and bayonetted. In the mean time the Mayor ordered out the military, and before the file privateer was carried, the iccond and largeft one which lay at the lower end of the town, prepared for defence. She had about Jo men in complete rea- dinefs. The populace aficmbled around her, and a few of the citi¬ zens boarded her, but no ferious injury Was done* The French¬ men endeavored to get their large gun (Uicn loaded) to bear on the people, but could not effect their purpofe* At tins moment capt. Maruval! appeared with his compa- nv> ai*d immediately charged bay¬ onet on the crew, drove them be¬ low, a^d took pofieflion. The May¬ or theQ ordered him to keep her from being burned, and that oili- cer with the utmoft difficulty kept her frtn-n being fired, not only by his own corps, but by the failors, till 10 at night, when in the act of reiievino: jmard, tiie failors headed by l°n\e American captains board¬ ed her r. repased with a barrel of tar and a pound of powder, foon kindled a fire & burnt her down.?* K KINGS row : Tuesday, DfctMttkk i , r ;.• i COMMI.KICA i iOK.
