his Britanic majesty, who have agreed
to and concluded the following arti-

Art. 1. In satisfaction and discharge
of the money which the United States
might been liable to pay in pur-
suance of the provisions of the said 6th

the same; the first of the said instal-
ments to be paid at the expiration of
one year; the second instalment at the
expiration of two years, and the third
and last instalment at the expiration
of three years next following the ex-

his Britannic majesty and the United
States that creditors on the other side
should meet with no lawful impedi-
ments to the recovery of the full va-

debts theretofore contracted, it is here-
by declared that the said fourth article,
so far as it respects its future opera-
tion, it is hereby recognized, confirmed,
& declared to be binding and obligato-
ry upon his Britannic majesty & the
said U. States, & the same shall be
accordingly observed with punctuality
and good faith. - And so the said cre-
ditors shall hereafter meet with no
lawful impediment to the recovery of
the full value in sterling money of
their bonafied debts.

Art. 3. It is furthermore agreed &
concluded that the commissioners ap-
pointed in pursuance of the seventh
article of the said treaty of amity,
commerce and navigation, and whose
proceedings have been suspended as a-
foresaid, shall immediately after the
signature of this convention, reassem-
ble & proceed in the execution of their
duties according to the provisions of
the said seventh article, except only
that instead of the sums awarded by
the said commissioners being made
payable at the time or times by them
appointed, all sums of money by them
awarded to be paid to America or Bri-
tish claimants, according to the pro-
visions of the said seventh article,
shall be made payable in three equal
instalments, the first whereof to be
paid at the expiration of one year, &

NEW-YORK, April 10.

The ship Liberty, from Liverpool,
arrived at this port last evening. She
left Liverpool on the 3d March, at
which time no intelligence had been
received there of the signing of the
definitive treaty. Superfine flour was
selling at 38 to 40 shillings.

The letters by the Liberty will not
be delivered from the post office un-
til this morning. Her London pa-
pers are to the 25th Feb. which, as
we are informed by a passenger on
board, contain no news.

We learn from New Orleans, by
Capt. Sesson, that an embargo was to
be laid on all vessels in that port, on
the 12th of March, by order of the
French government; & that a French
commandant for New Orleans was
hourly expected.

PHILADELPHIA, April 16.

INTERESTING INFORMATION.

Advices were yesterday received
from the Havanna, which announce
that the court of Madrid have granted
permission for the exportation of spe-
cie, free duty, from the Spanish do-
minions, for the purchase of shipping.
This information we derive from an
authority, next to official.

The foregoing intelligence we pre-
sume is of considerable magnitude to
the merchants of the United States; as
in consequence of the peace in Eu-
rope, we are in possession of a great sur-
plusage of shipping, which hereby we
shall be enabled to dispose of to ad-
vantage.

An article from Genoa, dated the
25th Jan. says:

"If we may give credit to letters
from Tunis the grand seignior has
given notice to all the powers of Bar-
bary, that they must at a fixed period
release all the Slaves in their posses
sion, of whatsoever nation they may
be.

My Dear Fellow Countrymen,
When the artillery of a garri-
son is hard to be dismounted, no won-
der if long time he taken in preparing
for an assault. But as the great gun
Competency is not to be found in the
garrison F-d, it is to be hoped that
the people of Jefferson will no longer
trust in that fortification.

There is neither difficulty nor glo-
ry in sacking a fort where the guns
are charged with squibs and the sol-
diers destitute of a wise commander,
therefore Gen. Philanthropy intends
to encamp until Gen. Goodsense takes
the command of the garrison F-d, &
then if he cannot take it by storm he
will endeavor to undermine it.

SACRED TO THE MUSES.
I make no doubt but you have seen,
The playful boys upon the green
Choose out two dogs, & for their fun,
Encourage, clap, and hiss them on -
Furious they growl and snap, not bite,
So war the quills when dunces write.

The Subscriber has for Sale a
large quantity of Writing Paper of
an excellent qality, which he will dis-
pose of on very moderate terms by the
Ream or single quire -

Also a quantity of Medium and

Also, a number of Blank Books of
different discriptions.
