THE NATIONAL REGISTER, Charleston, which reach to the 19th ult. Front these we learn that the .President has sanctioned a 13t11, b) hicl. vessels were permitted to proceed after the litth to stir+ States as arc not considered as belligerent ; bonds, double the ;due of the cargo being first given, that the ships will nut proceed to Great Britain, or France, their colonies and dependent State:. A most extraordinar) feature in this Bill is, that Holland is considered as an in derendent State, and conscquently not included in the Non intercourse Act. which was to IniVe the effect of Law un the'22oth ult. it is very probable that Mr.. MA OD M.SON will, in time, extend tYs favour to VI ',lei, Route, and Tuscany, which arc, at least, as independent Holland, and every outer State along the Cords of the Mediterranean and .Bal tie, connected with, or occupiedobv, the enemy. This in sulting partiality to France is but too obvioas; but a firm adherence to our Orders in Council, is sufficient to coun teract its effects. The following letter contains the parti culars:— is Charleston, March IS, 1809. "•I hope our administration will have temper and patience as to measures respecting this country, which must fall in with our views, if they only act with moderation with regard to the Orders in Council, as they may operate on American ships bound to Holland (now declared here an independent spate). Let our c•ruizers speak and endorse their papert, hut allow the ships to proceed on their voyage. The Berlin Decree will then d ) their business, and condemn them as good prizes, and the consequence will he a declaration of war by America against France, and an alliance with Great Britain. Pray inculcate this doctrine ; for be assured a good understand ing stith t hi: country is of great consequence to England. You will see by the American Papers, Mr. .Maddison's inaugural Speech, aml the clauses for raking the Embargo; you will, of course see that Holland is considered an independent power, thon4ll we know she is substantially under the dominion of France : therefore, if we enforce the Orders in Council on this point, awl carry in their trade, there will be a declaration of war against England and union with France. 11 ,, t if we pass them and only endorse their papers, it will Se J tit for the French, and the contrary will be the effect —a ith France and friendship with England. Let our Ministers consider the quetion, which will be more advan:ag - enus for their country :" Two Gottenburg mails arrived on Wednesday. They do mot confirm the expeetatioos which were raised in come queuee of the opposition manifested by the Dalecarliaus to the dethronement ofGustavus. The faction which brought that event to an issue, continae to guard, with the greatest severity, the deposed Sovereign ; and that unfo•• tunate Monarch has been removed from his late confine -went to the Castle of Gripsholm, as a place of greater security. lie is treated with such nifinnviri severity, that lie is aot even allowed to receive the visit of his spouse and children. From this measure we are inclined to believe that some project is in agitation to voilide the supreme autho rity exclusively to the QUEEN; a measure which may contribute to conciliate Russia and France, as she is sis!er to the EMPRESS or Russia, and related by marriage to Madame BONA PARTE. The Army of Adlersparre, which first evinced a spirit of rebellion, has arrived at Stockholm, and received with greater distinction, than if it had succes..fully defended the country against foreign invasion. Official dispatches were received on Wednesday from Martinique and from Spain. They announce the mosi pleasing intelligence. The former refer to the opera tions of our army during the siege of Fort Bourbon, and to the capitulation of that important post. A . Gazette Extraordinary has been published containing the parti culars-of an expedition, which does equal honour to our army and navy : It will be seen in another part of our paper. We have on this occasion, another proof of the tremendous effects of our artillery ; which has now acquired a decided superiority over that of every other 4►eople. 1 7 ,itil lately that of the French has been vaunted as the best in Europe; but we have btu murud by men qualified to APRIL 16. jadge, zind who have witnessed the effects of both,--that ours is, in every sense, vastly superior to that of the enemy. With a little perseverance on our side, and with Ministers capable and upright enough to manage effica cious!) and conscientiously the affair 4 of the country, we see no reason to doubt but every branch of our Military Department may be carried to a degree of perfection, NVIIICII would ecuder our Military as plepuderaut as our Navy. The point of principal interest at present is Rochefort harhour, from whence tidings of the greatest moment may be daily expected. The last letters which have been re ceived from thet a were brought by the Tonnant, and some of them are of so late a date as the Bth instaipt. The French fleet had not at that time been attacked by our squadron, for want of the asiistance of the fire-ships, for whose arrival, as the enemy were hourly endeavouring to f; et tarther in shore. Admiral Gambier had, it is said, re salved to wait no longer, but was upon the point of coin nivecing his operaroas with the means which he already possessed. In order to supply the absence of regular fire ships, the following transports, the Hercules, the Ocean, the Apollo, and the Sally, were fitting out in a manner proper for that service ; and the most important news may, as we said before, he daily expected from that quarter. Upon the subject of the unhappy differences which have there taken place, we shall subjoin the following particu lars which have come to our knowledge : It is said, that upon Lord Cochrane's joining the fleet, Admiral Gambiei gave orders, that a boat, boat's crew, and an officer, should instantly be provided by every ship under his command ; the whole of the men being required to volunteer. Upon receiving these orders, Admiral - Harvey addressed his ship's company, and, after stating the nature of them, declared, that he himself in his own person volunteered, and invited as many as chose to follow his example ; in consequence of which the greater part of his officers and men enrolled themselves along with him. A list of these being conveyed to the Caledonia, Lord Gambier's flag-ship, his Lordship is r: ported to have stated, that these were not generally the kind of volunteers he wanted ; as Lord Cochrane was to command the expedition, of IA Web appointment he (Lord Gambier) had himself some reason to complain, iaasmuch as it seemed to indicate that there was no Officer in his fleet fit to take charge of the service; but that Admiralty Orders to this effitct had been received, which, of course, lie must obey. Hereupon Admiral Harvey is stated to have expressed the greatest dissatisfaction, and to have bestowed upon Lord Gambier himself epithets of other qualities than those which he has evinced in his profession, such as ./esuist, Methodist, and Psalm-singer; and all this in the presence of Captain Bedford, of the Caledonia, who desired to know if it was meant that this reply should be conveyed to the Commander in Chief; to which the other answering, in the heat of passion, in the affirmative, the communica tion accordingly took place, and the letter for a Court- Martial was the result. We are extremely sorry for any occurrence of this nature in the fleet, which, nevertheless, proceeds from a feeling most characteristic of the (r eneral spirit of the British navy, namely, a jealousy of honour, r ' an ardent desire to be in the midst of danger, which has, perhaps, in the present instance, broken out - into a little irregular fit of spleen, but which we still hope will involve none of the parties concerned in any serious consequences. Accounts received yesterday state, that Lord Cochrane, with his usual vigilance and promptitude. observing that the Enemy were erecting in Basque Roads a battery to an noy our ships in their operations against the French slim dror, immediately attacked it, and,with two long 24-poun ders, kept up such a fire, that it was speedily demolished. The enemy have had the caution to keep a boat stationed close to the cables of all their ships, to prevent being sur prised by our gallant tars.
