A letter from New York, dated 13th ult. has the following paragraph. "Our destiny is fixed-the embargo is to be continued-and the ruin of the country completed! On this subject, no doubt can be entertained; the fact is too clearly demonstrated by Mr. Gallatin's letter in this day's Gazette, on which letter Mr. Giles has framed a bill em bracing all the secretary's principles; which bill, we have no doubt, has already passed into a law. What is to become of us?"-What, indeed, is to become of American traders?— How are they likely to gain a subsistence for themselves and families, since their rulers have completely stagnated the current of the country's commerce-Let the United States beware of compelling Britain to seek in another part of the world a supply of those commodities, which she has hitherto purchased of them. South America is now open to us; and what may we not expect to derive from a country, the soil of which produces all the luxuries of life, the mines of which contain more than is necessary to satiate the appetite of the most greedy avarice?-The virtuous king of Sweden has been compelled to shut his ports against us; we are, however, confident that not only the Swedes, but the other northern nations will 'ere long most sensibly feel the effects of a cessation of that intercourse, upon which their very existence, in a great measure, depends. A communication from Archangel, dated October the 1st 1808, gives the following particulars respecting the trade of that port. The trade of this place compared with that of other Russian ports, has been very considerable this year; in consequence of which the prices of several articles were pushed up to an unexpected height; such as-of flax from 85 to 90 roubles; tallow 80 to 85 ro. hemp 75 to 80 ro. bristles 40 ro. mats 170 ro. linseed 14 to 15 ro. rye 10 to 104 ro. and wheat to 9 ro.-Owing to the want of tonnage, so few ships being arrived to carry off the goods brought to market, the stock remaining on hand is very considerable, and consists of 30,000 poods of yellow candle tallow, sent hither from Petersburgh; 500,000 poods of bar iron; 30,000 poods of train oil; 13,000 chetverts of wheat; 500,000 mats: 3000 poods of candles; 80,000 barrels of tar; 3000 poods of pease; 15,000 poods of ryeflour; 10,000 barrels of pitch; 10,000 chetverts of linseed; 5000 poods of hemp, and 2000 poods of flax.-The new crop of rye is said to be excellent; that of wheat and linseed is also very good, but rather scanty. The reports concerning the flax are different; but The rouble is equivalent to 4s. 6d. sterl. of hemp we have no information whatever.Some contracts for next year have been already made for potashes at 34 ro. and for hemp at 43 ro. and we are also assured that soap tallow has been bought on delivery at 45 ro. and rye at 7 ro.-We calculate upon wheat fetching about 7 ro. during the winter, bar iron 155 copeks, mats 125 ro. tar 24 ro. pitch 65 cop. linseed 9 ro. and flax 50 †o.The exportation hence of wood remains subject to the same restrictions as before.During the last year 125 vessels have sailed from Archangel." It appears that a number of our enemies' vessels are cruizing in the Indian seas, and have made many valuable captures, to the detriment of our East-India company's trade. This has been made, we understand, the subject of a memorial to the admiralty. In consequence of the present situation of Spain, the wool of that country bears at this time the enormous price of about 12s. per lb, instead of its former price of 5s. or Os The effect of this state of the wool market is, an immediate and very considerable rise in superfine cloths and kerseymeres: the advance on the former is not less than 3s. per yard, and kerseymeres in proportion; some talk of its being double this rise.-The monopolizers of tallow, though they may receive a temporary be considerable losers, as oil has been substi advantage by raising its price, will ultimately tuted for candles in the kitchens, even of the great, and the consumption of tallow has decreased within the last month exceedingly. Oil has also been generally adopted throughout the country in stables, &c. as well as in dwelling houses.-The East India company will put up at the ensuing March sale, besides those goods already declared: tea bohea 300,000; congou and campoi 3,350,000; pekoe and souchong 200,000; singlo and twankay 750,000; hyson-skin 100,000, and hyson 300,000 lbs; total 5,000,000 lbs: on Monday, March 6, 1809; prompt the 16th June following. They have also declared for sale on the 30th of March, 228,000 lb. of cinnamon, 92,000 lb. of nutmegs, and 15 chests of opium: on the 11th of April, 1400 tons of saltpetre and 622 bags of pepper. They have postponed their sale of indigo from the 13th of March to the 8th of May. Orders have lately gone down to Norwich, which, besides affording constant employment to the manufacturing poor for nearly twelve months, will diffuse upwards of £40,000 in earnings, exclusive of the money circulating for combing and spinning. We have received a communication with a statement of the quantities of cotton imported into Britain, during the last two years; from authentic documents: this with some others will be comprised in the inquiry alluded to in the first article of the present number. 2 54 2 Quartern. 1s. 2 d. 1 24 1 24 1 2 31 4 11 Jan. 7 4 11 14 4 8 Those marked thus price of the market. 51 2 4 are taken at the highest * In the afternoon there was a remarkable storm of rain and sleet, which covered every thing with ice.
