The following letter, said to have been received in town, from Liverpool, state 3 the arrival at that port, at a late hour on Tuesday eliciting, of a vessel from North America, with intelligence, " that the Proclamation repealing the Orders in Council had been received in America with acclamations of joy in every quarter where it was made known, and that Mr. • President MAnlsux bad been constrained to issue Proclamation, declaring America and Great Britain to be at Peace. War liras also immediately declared against France, and the popular indignation against MADIS:iN and his fac tion was raised to the highest pitch." Pleased as we should be to find this report true, we do not think it hitherto entitled to much ci edit. 'We even doubt the authenticity of the Liverpool letter, as from the cor respondence we have established with that place, we ate cer tain, that had such a vessel arrived with such inte:Lgence, it would have immediately been communicated to us. We ra titer suspect it has been fabricated here for intetested pur poses. However, it is not impossible that the American people should have at last perceived the corrupt partiality of their Government towards France, and should have in sisted on the recal of the Decimation of War agactis us. We have always contended, that the hostile. disposition c f America against us, was that purchased by N APOLEON anion:; the Members of the Executive and tl:eir party, and did not exist among the people.
