They write from Mayence, May 29-------
<£ We have just received orders to retain
here the Swedish prisoners, instead of
gentling them into the interior of France.
They will be confined in the prison of this
town. We infer from this measure, that
peace between Sweden and France is on the
eve of being concluded."

BORDEAUX. June 4.
The Barcelona volunteers forming the
first column of Spanish troops, on their way
to join our army, entered this city yesterday
morning. General Sabatier, accompanied
hy his staff,, and escorted by a piquet of ca-
valry, went to meet this corps ; and no mi-
litary honours used on similar occasions
have been omited in welcoming this regi-
ment, which notwithstanding the long route
it had perfotmed, appeared to be in fine or-
der. A number of persons, attracted by
curiosity, had assembled on the passage of
our allies, who must have discovered on all
their countenance* the pleasure they felr'at
seeing them. T

We are informed (says the Richmond En-

gone to Halifax to consult with admiral
Berkeley. In the meantime the British
fleet on our coast and within our waters,
will be commanded by the meritorious and
celebrated captain Hardy, the companion
of the hero of the Nile and Trafalgar—lord
Nelson. Captain Hardy lias learned the
way into the temple pf fame by gallant and
honorable achievements ; not like Whitby,
Humphreys and Co. by murdering unsus-
pecting and hospitable neighbors. We may
therefore, reasonably infer, that no further
annoyance will be given to us than may be
enjoined by positive orders.

CHARLESTON, July si.
H'S excellency the governor of this state
announced on Sunday last, that he has re-
ceived a letter from the Secretary of war, by
order of the president of the United Stales
requiring him to tak^ effectual measures to
organize, arm and equipt tor actual service,
5700 of the militia of this state, to be held
in readiness to march at a moment's warn-
ing.
Two of the gun-b ats which has been
dismantled in this port, have been enquip-
ped and manned, and on Sunday last took
their station in the roads.

NORFOLK, July 27.
Yesterday fortnight the Chesapeake fri-
gate was towed up into, our harbor, lit'le
better than a hulk, without mast or shroud
standing, to-day we .have the sati.-fac.ioii
to perceive her ready lor for sea. Great
fc,'.dit is due to commodore Decatur and
nis officers for the aciivity vhtch he and they
have use*l in preparing this ship for sea irt so
short a time, and under very unfavorable
circumstances. Scarcely a day has passed
without ram, and some days it has never
ceased to rain ; we are contide.it that with
a commm share of tair weather, she would
have been ready ior sea, four days since.
Without wishing t. revive at this time a sub-
ject ol dispute, we connot forbear remaik-
ingthat this circumstance, ought to prove to
the navy department the superior advantages
of this place over Washington for naval
equipments. Had the Chesapeake beensent
to Washington to refit, we do not believe
she would have been ready for sea under six
weeks or two months tromjthis date.
On Saturday the Petersburg and Rich-
mond detachments of infantry under major
Ambler, embarked on board of two vessels
on their return to their respective places of
residence ; the service not requiring them
to remain longer here. On leaving the har-
bor they were saluted by the artillery compa-
ny, forts Nelson and Norfolk, and cheered
by the Chesapeake frigate.
We have nothing to inform our distant
readers, respecting the operations of the
British ships in the bay ; a part of them
occasionally go out and return again every
day. T'ney have not made any attempt to
land, or taken any steps respecting the five
persons detained. Commodore sir Thomas
Hardy, who now commands, behaves as
far as we can learn wilh great politeness to
the vessels going out and coming in, grv-
ing them no interruption.
It is to be regretted that commodore Har-
dy had not commanded from the commence-
ment of this affair. We think he would
never have written such a letter as that of
commod -re Douglas, which has been pro-
ductive of indignation scarcely sht.it of that
produced by the original outrage.
The Revenge, government schooner, is
in Hampton Reads, and proceeds immedi-
ately to Englnnd with the communications
from the executive to our ministers in Lon-
don, touching the affair of the Chesapeake.
She may be expected to arrive in England
about the first of September ; before which,
the British government and people will not
only have received an account of^the trans-
action, but of the sentiments which it has
excited in the United States, together with
the president's proclamation.
If the British government is determined
to sustain admiral Berkeley, orders will' he
given to seize and capture our vessels with-
out exception; if otherwise, they will
not be interrupted. The English govern-
mont will perceive that war is inevitable,
if it avows the principle of searching our na-
tional ships, and act accordingly.

Extract of a letter received at Augusta (Geo.)
dated Athens, July 5.
" President Meigs has returned from
North-Carolina—The commissioners have
amicably adjusted the boundary line, be-
tween this state and North-Carolina. Col.
Hammond, from St. Louis, U. S. T. was
here yesterday -1 am sorry to learn from
the colonel, that lieut. Pike, and company,
are killed by the Asuage Indians, near the
head waters of Red river, which they were
exploring.—It is understood that they were
killed through the influence of the Spani-
ards."
On Sunday last a gentleman arrived from
the Mediterranean with dispatches for the
secretaries of state and navy. The Con-
tents of theie dispatches have not yet trans-
pired. The gentleman who was the bear-
er of them brings, we are told, the intelli-
gence that the British are capturing indis-
criminately all American vessels in the Me-
diterranean, and sending them into Malta.
Washington hederalist.
We understand, that the president of the
United States, has (for special reasons)
thought proper to direct the five British pri-
soners lately taken by capt. Sheppard, to be
restored, together with their b >at and arms :
still requiring, however, the terms of his
proclamation to be rigorously enforced
against any person, from British armed ves-
sels, who shall hereafter come on shore for
the purpose of procuring water or provisi-
ons. ^Virginia Argus, j
Extract of a letlter from WadmaJanv (S. C.J
dated the Wtli instant.
" I have just returned from a visit to my
cotton on St. Helena ; from all appearances,
prospects are truly discouraging—we have
have a worm there, which resembles the
caterpillar, that is playing destruction with
our fields of cotton and corn. I have this
moment corne out of my held here, and (ind
they are cutting the stalks and tender pods
of cotton. The corn is stripped off its
blade, and they destroy every part of it
which is tender. The grass does not escape
them - after they have gone over it, it looks
as though a fire had passed through the
Held."
Communication.
Departed this life on the 29th cf July,
1807, in the sixty second year of her age,
Mrs.'Susanna Scott Levy, wife of Mr. Levy
Andrew Levy, of this place. Those who
spent their lives within the sphere of her
acquaintance, agree that as a wife, a mother
and a christian, she was equally entitled to
our esteem and admiration-. The serenity
of her mind and the solidity of her princi-
ples, triumphed over any reverses ol mi'tune
which she experienced, and enable I her to
exhibit through her whole life, a pattern of
maternal love and ready resignation to the
will of Heaven. The unwearied exertions
she employed for the support of her family
—the care she exercised in the improvement
of their minds ; and above all, her anxiety
for their eternal.wtlfare, place her character
beyond praise. But what is most interest-
ing and instructive to us is, that we have the
comfort to believe, that as she lived the life,
so she experienced in her last sickness that
peace of mind, that confidence in the mer-
cy of Gon, through the merits of a Saviour,
which is peculiar- to the good and pious.—
She spoke of herself with unaffected humil-
ity, of her confidence in God with firmness
and assurance. She spoke of her dissolution
with great composure and serenity of mind,
and beheld her last enemy approaching with
a steady and tranquil eye. It pleased God
so to order it that her disease was not at-
tended with much pain, and that her facul-
ties were unimpaired. She was therefore
the more able to enjoy the consolations at-
tendant on a virtuous life. She was attend
ed by those whose natural affection, rivitted
by her former kind and endearing offices,
rendered them anxious to minister to her
necessities : Full of solicitude, they were
seen constantly sitting by her bedside, ex-
ploring her wishes & supplying her wants ;
pouring out a prayei for the prolongation of
her life, or for peace in death. While her
memory ran over the pleasing picture of the
past, faith stood beside her like an angel of
light ; friendship hovered over her with the
kindness of a ministring spirit, and the un-
feigned tears of her family, while she; im
parted to them her last instructions and ad-
vice, told her that she had made a good im-
pression on their minds, which time would
never ell'aoe.
